Good news all! As u might have guessed, I’m coming back to play Snake Eyes for the sequel of G.I JOE, directed by Jon Chu ;)
ComingSoon confirms that the star will have a cameo in Columbia Pictures’ adaptation of 21 Jump Street, the television crime drama that transformed him into an 1980s teen idol and helped to kick-start his career.
Sam Raimi is said to be at loggerheads with Disney over who should play a key part in his upcoming “origins of the Wizard” picture, Oz The Great and Wonderful. The role in question is that of a witch, one of several in the film, with Mila Kunis already cast as the youngest amongst their number.
Raimi’s choice for this witch is Hilary Swank, with whom he previously collaborated on The Gift, and who has a couple of Oscar wins under her belt but has, lately, seen her selection of films work out less well. Meanwhile, the studio would prefer Michelle Williams, who is certainly more fashionable right now.
Cotillard will appear as Miranda Tate, a Wayne Enterprises board member eager to help a still-grieving Bruce Wayne resume his father’s philanthropic endeavors for Gotham.
Gordon-Levitt will play John Blake, a Gotham City beat cop assigned to special duty under the command of Commissioner Gordon.
Who? These are officail casting news? I still say they are messing with us and wont reveal the actual roles until the film releases. Because I doubt they are going to waste JGL on a throw-away background character.
Nolan is quoted as saying:
When you collaborate with people as talented as Marion and Joe, it comes as no surprise that you would want to repeat the experience. I immediately thought of them for the roles of Miranda and Blake, and I am looking forward to working with both of them again.
Tomorrow we start shooting (I THINK I'm legally permitted to say that). Day one. That's right. We'll be shooting the pivotal death/betrayal/product placement/setting up the sequel/coming out scene, at the following address:
[Marvel Lawyers rush in, take Joss's keyboard, blowtorch a picture of his family like in "Stormy Monday", drink his milkshake, leave the seat up, fluff his pillows, violently unfluff his pillows, leave]
Went too far. My bad. Anyhoo, it should be a fun day, followed by the eighty thousand other fun days it will take to finish this. I'll be checking in from time to time, if there's news or I crave attention (i.e. am awake) . None of it will be Avengers news -- I have some very denty pillows to remind of that -- but I may have tidbits. (They're not about Firefly. I should say that up front, if only to protect Sis Mo from the HATORZ.)
So wish me luck. DO IT! LUCK! NOW! I'm off to finish some Buffy pages, and then figure out what the movie is about already. I'm pretty sure it's about the Justice League [Marvel Lawyers re-enter, unspeakability occurs] or possibly something else. I'll get it. I've been looking forward to this. For about 46 years.
Catchphrase!

In a new interview, Robert Pattinson has dropped a pretty big hint that he’s associated with the project. This comes from Inquirer:
Robert revealed details on another matter that has been drawing a lot of speculation—that he is playing Jeff Buckley in a biopic about the singer-songwriter who drowned in 1997. “I met his mom who’s really great,” he said of Mary Guibert, executive producer of the film reportedly going to be directed by “Welcome to the Rileys” director Jake Scott. That Robert talked to Mary indicate that both are at least exploring the idea. “I don’t know,” he said, then hinted, “It’s really not up to me. I love Jeff’s music. He was amazing.”
I’d imagine it’s his to turn down, at this stage.
In the same article, the interviewer gets the best info yet on young Mr. Pattinson’s intention to write a screenplay, something somehow derived from some mysterious Lillian Hellman work or another. The article reads:
Robert clarified that his screenplay project is not based on one of Lillian’s novels. “It’s just something Lillian Hellman wrote.” Laughing again, he said, “I can’t really say what it is.”
Here's the official plot:
Stallone will star as a New Orleans hitman who teams with an NYPD detective (Jane), as they are brought together by two vicious murders. The two proceed to take on all who stand in their way.
Jane hails the script as "fantastic" and told our boys a little about the role he'd be playing opposite Sly.
"He's a hitman, I'm a cop, and we're just opposite in every f*cking way, and we need each other to get this job done. And of course I'm like, 'As soon as this job's over, I'm going to take you to jail, you know, you're a killer.'"
I actually just wrote a comedy about a zombie virus that breaks out in a primary school but only effects people who haven’t been through puberty. There’s all these eight or nine year olds running around and the teachers are holed up inside the school. And the titles of the film is…? Cooties. That’s just an out and out comedy.Side note: The great picture we used in this post came from a tremendous photographer by the name of David Noles.

The problem, apparently, is “the format of the movie” – which might mean they’re arguing about how many books worth of story to squeeze into one film, or if they end on a cliffhanger or a happy ending with every bow tied neatly. These were arguments that the filmmakers behind, for example, Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings and The Spiderwick Chronicles all had to go through.
Sheridan previously directed My Left Foot and In The Name of the Father, to give just two fine examples, and has Dream House with Daniel Craig coming along later in the year. I like most of his films a great deal, and all of them at least a little. And yes, that includes Get Rich or Die Trying, the 50 Cent film he was responsible for.
The same newspaper reported back in February that Saoirse Ronan took meetings with Sheridan about the role of Holly Short, a member of the elven law force. Colfer punningly calls these characters LEPRecons, or members of the Lower Element Police Reconnaissance. This week, the Irish Independent say, Colfer “wants” Ronan to take the role.
“He knows what’s going on. There was stuff going on. At Comic-Con they were talking about me playing it and there was a rumor that I’d been cast. I mean, it’s something that’s kind of out there and, you know, I’ve been looking at that. It would be a fun one to do. Hopefully, doing something like ‘Transformers’ is about to show myself in an action situation where I’m not mister-weepy-doctor guy, you know, not McDreamy. You have to change that in people’s view. I’m still hungry for other things. I’d love to play Doctor Strange.”
