EMILY BLUNT TO STAR IN SF EPIC "WE MORTALS ARE"! LUCAS TILL JOINS LIAM HEMSWORTH, HARRISON FORD, GARRY OLDMAN IN "PARANOIA"! JENNIFER CONNELLY & SAOIRSE RONAN TO JOIN RUSSELL CROWE IN "NOAH" EPIC?

Gorgeous British rose Emily Blunt, who was quite busy this winter with SALMON FISHING IN THE YEMEN next to Ewan McGregor, and THE MUPPETS in which she did a cameo of her role from THE DEVIL WEARS
PRADA acting as Miss Piggy's secretary in VOGUE, is, according to "Variety" in talks to take a female role in Doug Liman's sf epic WE MORTALS ARE (previously known as ALL YOU NEED IS KILL) in which the story revolves around a soldier (played but the MISSION IMPOSSIBLE star whose name we won't mention here since he is banned after he had said, in the mentioned film, that "he kills Serbs like flies") who finds himself reliving his last day after being killed by aliens in a long-running war. Each time he comes back to life, he finds himself becoming a better fighter. Emily should portray a woman who fights next to him. As you remember, Emily Blunt will be seen this year in sf film LOOPER next to Bruce Willis and Joseph Gordon Levitt and in romantic film THE FIVE YEAR ENGAGEMENT next to Jason Segel.
HOLLYWOOD SPY HEADLINES
After they've chosen Russell Crowe, instead of Christian Bale or
Michael Fassbender, for the lead role in Biblical sf epic NOAH, which will bring a very dark and edgy version of the famous legend, Darren Aronofsky has started choosing ladies in the cast too: according to "Movie Web" Jennifer Connelly, who is mostly known for her marriage with Paul Bettany and not for her roles, is in talks to join the film which would reunite her with Russell Crowe once again after A BEAUTIFUL MIND. She would play Naameh, Noah's wife. The same source says that young Irish star Saoirse Ronan might also join them in a supporting role. The film is currently set for March 2014. release!

Just a few days ago I mentioned that Liam Hemsworth, Harrison Ford and Gary
Oldman will star in Robert Luketic's thriller PARANOIA in which the story revolves around a young man who funds a lavish retirement party for a co-worker with company funds, and is caught by his boss. Accused of embezzlement, he agrees to spy for the boss to avoid prosecution. He is forced to infiltrate a rival company and steal information on a top-secret project. "Variety" reports today that X-MEN: FIRST CLASS and BATTLE: LOS ANGELES star Lucas Till has joined the cast as a co-worker and a friend of Liam's character. Lucas will also join Nicole Kidman and Matthew Goode in Wentworth Miller's STOKER.

    1. reply worked after I clicked it fifty times haha. Anyway, what the couch jumper's name isn't allowed to be said anymore? Oprah might not like you for that..haha...Still wish Harrison Ford would make a good movie, doesn't sound like he'll be in this one a whole lot. Crowe for Noah, hmmm I suppose, even though I still don't like him much as a person at least.

    2. oh, hell, now noone else will comment after you leave your fart clouds here :)
      I wonder if Harrison has recovered from COWBOYS AND ALIENS failure?

    3. I guess my fart clouds cleared. Thankfully, the lingering can make one crazy.

      haha prob not, it'd take years to get over such a turd.

    4. Jesus Christ, what is that stick. It smells like a wet cats arse in here. Dez, put out a bowl of antifreeze for the cat, that'll stiffen him up.

    5. I can tell you folks still don't get along too well. But I wonder... Anne how come you know what a cat's wet arse smells like?

      Comboys and Aliens AND Indiana Jones Meets Aliens both deserve to be buried in a pyramide OR in a shitload of dino droppings. That said, and might I add eloquently so, MOT ESIURC is an idiot indeed and his name should never be mentioned. I liked him in the eighties, but then Mr Cocky Shorty - or should I be honest, Dr Freud, and simply say Short Cocky (I'm merely quoting what Lanky Nicole tells me) - decided to be Mr Wonderful in War of the Worlds (Oh COME ONE!!) and that other Playmountain movie with the girl in the water and the wooden balls, not to mention his ridiculous Oprah moment (which, of course, I never watch) and boom: he was out of my list, too.

      do not flatter yourself, we can still feel you all around literally! :)

      @Annzie
      you smell it too, sister? There's no way of getting rid of the stench...

      OK, I haven't understood half of the names and things you've just said, but then again, I almost never understand your and Cat's ramblings :PPP However, we do agree with you on that person we won't name. And we did watch Oprah from time to time, but she is a looney herself.

      Delete
    8. haha well the cat just wants to make his presence known all the time, even without a rhyme.

      Yep the blue guy had quite the rant and he was right. Both those movies should be parked under some huge pyramid and never see the light of day until the aliens come and reclaim the pyramids. Then when they see those they'll run away and not bother we us because any species stupid enough to make such trash isn't worth their time.

    9. yep. the two of you IS like bros, ramble ramble rant rant rant.... and little me no comprehende nada :)

    11. Oh COME ON! Lesson one (take notes!):
      (1) Here's Mr X (AKA MOT ESIURC for those who choose not to be blinded by his name) showing his true idiotic self on Oprah.

      (2) Playmountain = Spielberg

      (3)The wooden ball

      As if you didn't know....

      Delete
    12. Now what happened to (1) and (2)????? What kind of blog site thing is this anyway that your aliens make the first part of my lesson disappear? Well, I'm not gonna type it again to inform you that Playmountain means Spielberg and that THIS is Mr X showing his true idiotic self on Oprah.

      Delete
    13. methinks the two of you should be Oprah's guests, it would be such a show... too bad she ended up her programme before you got the chance to become stars...

  2. Jennifer Connelly really doesn't do that many movies, does she. I think she's had a hard time finding her niche as an actress, though that's only my opinion. Has she ever starred in a movie with Bettany. I can't think of any off the top of my head?

    1. I'm still trying to remember a single movie she was in, and I can't. That's not a good sign :( She starred with him in the one mentioned in the post A BEAUTIFUL MIND but I don't really remember her in it :)

      Delete
    2. Ha! And I can't remember Bettany being in it. :)

    3. I think he played Russell's friend or fellow scientist, or something like that... I didn't like the film...

  3. These Hemsworths brothers are killing me!! They are just TOO hot. So here's the big question...Chris or Liam? I vote Chris! Yum ;)

  6. I thought at first Emily is cast in yet ANOTHER movie! WE MORTALS ARE is a better title than that other one surely. Glad to see she gets even more roles now, she's so lovely in that 'Salmon' movie.

  11. Too bad Emily has to work next to "he who shall not be named." The mans a lunatic and maybe one day we'll get lucky and he'll disappear when he flies his ego too close toe sun. I'm ambivalent about Crowe in Noah. He was good in A Beautiful Mind, but he's so undependable it's hard to tell.

    1. fingers crossed, that we get rid of him and that actress we shall not name...
      Russell is totally undependable!

  16. WE MORTALS ARE sounds like an interesting concept despite the chosen star.

    It's really good to see Jennifer Connelly doing something again. I've liked her since CAREER OPPORTUNITIES.

    3. A John Hughes film from 1991.

    4. ah, the beginning of the 90's is a big blur to me, the years of war in Yugoslavia, we didn't have much films then in cinemas...

  17. AW...to bad Crowe got the part instead of Bale.
    I hope Jennifer gets the role. She needs more recent movies.
