Hear ye, hear ye, we have the new
JACK THE GIANT KILLER and it's no one else but young
Nicholas Hoult! According to "MovieWeb" he will take the lead role in
Bryan Singer's new epic adventure about young Jack, who inadvertently breaks a longstanding peace between the humans and giants when he pursues a princess who was kidnapped by a giant.
Nicholas Hoult, whom we shall see this year as Beast in X-MEN: FIRST CLASS, will join
Bill Nighy, who will play the two-headed leader of the giants, and
Stanley Tucci, who will play the main villain, in the cast as I reported few days ago.
SHORT HEADLINES ABC's new
CHARLIE'S ANGELS show has added
Ramon Rodriguez (TRANSFORMERS) who will join
Minka Kelley, Rachael Taylor and
Annie Ilonzeh, as a hunky, younger version of Bosley, the very tech-savvy protector of the Angels. *
Michael Rosenbaum has refused to come back to
SMALLVILLE and play Lex Luthor for the last time in show's two hour finale. He played the main villain for seven years before they kicked him out from the show even though he was beloved by the fans and viewers.
Now here's an interesting plot: as "Variety" reports
Scott Speedman will join
Brian Cox and
Kevin Durand in
EDWIN BOYD a true story of a WWII vet and family man turned bank robber, torn between the need to provide for his young family and an unfulfilled dream to head to Hollywood to become a star. He discovers a way to satisfy both needs by robbing banks "Hollywood style", but that leads him down an unexpected path of danger and tragedy.
NOOOOOOO!!!! I LOVE Michael Rosenbaum! *tears*
ReplyDeleteI did not realize that ABC was going to do another Charlie's Angels tv show!
ReplyDeleteRosenbaum should get over it and serve his fans, I think. But too late now, I guess.

@Emily
ReplyDeleteI loooooove him too, I actually stopped watching SMALLVILLE after he left the show
@Kelly
what do you mean you didn't realize? I had a post last weekend about all three new angels :)
@Nahno
I think he should stand his ground :)
I haven't watched Smallville in years and didn't realize Lex was gone. We was one of the best things about the show.

Tossing It Out
Wondered what Speedman was doing after the Underworld movies.
ReplyDelete@Arlee
ReplyDeleteindeed he was!
@Alex
played mostly in B-movies, and this one will be the same, I guess, since it's an Indie production.
Wow you actually shocked me with the first image! I thought he went bald for that role! Damn! (he never should)
ReplyDeleteAnyway some interesting news! Good post Dez =]
oooh, but I absolutely adore Nick's hairdo in that first pic :) Bald men are much hotter than those with hair :))
ReplyDeleteNo Lex Luther, that is sad! Michael Rosenbaum played the part, brilliantly! Best I had ever seen this character portrayed.
ReplyDeleteEdwin Boyd sounds good, I like seeing a true story; I hope it has a life changing ending.(in a positive light)

I'm pretty sure he left of his own volition, they didn't kick him out. It was one of those "I want to pursue other avenues of my career" excuse that most of the other actors from Smallville used and then went on to do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. I think Rosenbaum probably has had the crappiest post Smallville career out of them all, so he probably thinks coming back will admit he never should have left, if that's the case he needs to lose the ego. Frankly I got tired of Lex, and I think the show has been better with both Lex and Lana gone, though it would have made a nice finale for him to show up since they've been playing the Lex clone angle this season, now we'll probably get a poor look alike.
ReplyDeleteThere's also still a slight chance he changes his mind or, he's saying no to keep it a secret.
I have to catch up with the movie world. I'm stuck with reruns of Bachelorrete (can never spell it right but who cares).
ReplyDeleteA new Charlie's Angels - that should be interesting... :)
ReplyDeleteRosenbaum's coming back... http://www.tvline.com/2011/02/smallville-michael-rosenbaum-back-for-series-finale/
ReplyDeleteHollywood Spy classic in black and white.
ReplyDeleteThere is something about Nicholas Hoults face that bugs me
ReplyDelete@Ella
ReplyDeletehe really was the best :( And I also hope that the character in the second film will get a positive change
@Doo
sa'cu da pogledam :)
@Answer
well, I can only hope that they will give him double the money the wanted and that he will then come back, because he deserves all the money he gets.
PS I know you're not into him :)
@Ocean
you really have to catch up with films :)
@Jemi
ReplyDeleteit could be if they don't mess it up with bad actresses and bad stories :)
@Budd
yep, I like going classic from time to time to freshen things up, especially when I have faces which look great in black and white
@Zoe
in a positive or negative way?
Hell yeah Bald=Hot and Sexy.I'm glad Michael stood his ground. I miss him terribly on Smallville and they never should have gotten rid of him.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like that About a Boy's kid has turned into a man and he’s ready to tackle Hollywood :)
ReplyDeleteHmmm... I stopped watching Smallville after Lex left too. That's interesting he won't come back for the finale. And they kicked him off the show?? Maybe he's difficult to work with?
ReplyDeletei opet sam kratko odgovorio haha :)
ReplyDelete@Melissa
ReplyDeleteglad you agree with me on bald gorgeousness, Melissa :) And I totally agree on Michael too!
@Jaccsy
indeed he did! We shall be seeing more of him in the future I reckon ;)
@Kristin
maybe he is, but I don't think so, he seems charming and relaxed and cool.
@Doo
svratim ja uvek, ne moras da mi saljes depeshu :)
Why did they kick Lex out? Well of course he doesn't want to come back.
ReplyDeleteactually, it seems he's coming back, you'll read it in a few minutes when I publish Sunday's post :)
ReplyDeleteThe Jack movie sounds pretty cool! Hadn't heard if it. SO what does Dezzy have planned for the big Oscar night?? Surely, there is some kind of celebration in store, right? I wanna take part ... I love Oscar night. :)
ReplyDeleteAh, Dezzy usually hates Oscars :) too many bad actors and films nominated and awarded ... but as always we shall be covering the red carpet :) and you can expect a fashion report the day after :)
ReplyDeletehoult is a fantastic actor! bodes well for jack!
ReplyDeleteCouple years ago I had crush on bald Rosenbaum ;) I wonder if he is playing in other movies somebody who is dark (in mood of course).
ReplyDeleteGood for Nicholas! I'm excited to see X-Men: First Class w/ the outstanding British cast.
ReplyDeleteLOVE that photo of Scott Speedman. I really respect Brian Cox, excellent thespian that Speedman undoubtedly happy to be working with. The premise sounds good too, I'll keep an eye on that one. Thanks Dezzy!
@Vics
ReplyDeletehe is, and a hot one as well :)
@Jonia
who didn't have a crush on him? :))) I sometimes fancy that all of us bald men have his charms too :)
@Flixy
I'm also happy that Nic got the role. He's kinda better than Aaron, although we love him too. And Scott is really photogenic, too bad he doesn't do photo shoots more often.
