Thomas Jane Starts Shooting Dark Country
Thomas Jane isn’t just an actor and comic book geek (he actually has his own comic book company!), but he’s also a director. Or at least, he will be once he finishes shooting his directorial debut, “Dark Country”, which is being described as a “noir thriller”, and follows a couple (played by Lauren German (”Hostel [...]

Jason Reitman (”Thank You For Smoking”) has come onboard “Jennifer’s Body” to direct the horror-comedy movie written by “Juno” scribe Diablo Cody (the name her mom gave her, I’m sure). Reitman will also be producing the film with partner Dan Dubiecki via their Hard C production company for Fox Searchlight. The film is already set [...]

This is interesting. When Zack Snyder released his cast list for “Watchmen” a while back, I hadn’t noticed that no one was scheduled to play Moloch the Mystic (aka Edward Jacobi), the former villain turned pathetic middle aged has-been who is murdered at the beginning of the movie, thus setting the chain of events into [...]

After announcing James Wong as the director of the upcoming “Dragon Ball Z” movie (apparently to be called just “Dragonball” in its big-screen incarnation), Twentieth Century Fox has given the movie the go-ahead and scheduled it for a Summer 2008 release date, which seems way too early, but then I’m not a big time movie [...]

Stephen King fans will probably hate the news that Frank Darabont has changed the ending of Stephen King’s short novella “The Mist” for the movie version. According to Darabont himself, his ending will be “definitive”, while King’s was open-ended and left to interpretation. Now as I was saying, many King fans will be a little [...]

Has James Bond found his latest Bond girl, and is she hiding somewhere in Mexico? Yes, according to MI6 News, a site dedicated to all things Bond, who cites the rumored girl, Mexican TV actress Mayrin Villanueva, as having nabbed the role. The “confirmation”, such as it is, comes from Villanueva’s husband, who told Mexican [...]

Ridley Scott is one busy man. Frankly, I don’t know how he can end up directing all of these movies that he’s currently attached to. And besides, if he ends up doing “Nottingham” with Russell Crowe and this new movie, “Stones”, then how will he ever find time to direct that (very terrible idea that [...]

Okay, so saying that I didn’t have a whole lot of hope for Richard Kelly’s “Southland Tales” is an understatement. I was excited to see the picture, but after delay after delay, was resigned to the idea that this movie just couldn’t possibly be any good, what with all the rumors about new edits and [...]

Fresh off the Rambo boat, Julie Benz is jumping into the Punisher business, according to the blokes over at MovieHole. There is no word on who Benz will be playing, but since we’ve only heard of guys landing roles in the “War Zone” cast so far, I’m going to go out on a limb and [...]

The guys over at Worst Previews have landed some more images from Rob Cohen’s upcoming third entry in the “Mummy” franchise. Well, if you don’t count “The Scorpion King”, and I don’t think anyone does, do they? In any case, the new images are pretty spiffy, and shows a very action-packed movie. I still don’t [...]
