PLACES choosing a very grim topic for her next film: according to "Deadline" it will be a film based on Gillian Flynn's New York Times bestselling novel which follows Libby Day, a woman who, at seven-years old, survived the brutal massacre of her family and testified against her brother as the murderer. Twenty-five years later, the Kill Club, a secret-society obsessed with solving notorious crimes, bring her to question and confront the truth of what took place that day. She will also star in THE MASTER next year, a film about a leader of a powerful sect. She's obviously in a dark mood these days.
HOLLYWOOD SPY HEADLINES
Deadline also reports that Chris Pine has written and will star in MANTIVITIES, a coming-of-middle age tale which will revolve around a group of early thirty somethings at war with their adolescence. They all come together with the goal of helping one of their friends grow up. On the other hand,
LAST VEGAS, the film I've mentioned earlier this week, with Robert de Niro and Michael Douglas, has just added Morgan Freeman as their third member of a group of friends headed to Las Vegas to celebrate the last of their retirement home buddies to get married. And you know your spy doesn't care at all about IRONMAN III but it seems they've just added James Badge Dale as Coldblood, who is, according to "MovieWeb", a man who stepped on a landmine that blew his body to pieces. After being dead for a few minutes, he is brought back to life as a cyborg and becomes an urban soldier who freelances as a mercenary.

Your trailer for today is the first clip for a very compelling WON'T BACK DOWN, a drama ready to hit cinemas this September in which Viola Davis and Maggie Gyllenhaal play two determined mothers , one of them a teacher, who look to transform their children's failing inner city school. Facing a powerful and entrenched bureaucracy, they risk everything to make a difference in the education and future of their children. Viola Davis isn't the only Academy Award Nominee in the cast, since Holly Hunter is also there alongside Ving Rhames and Oscar Isaac.
Mantivities sounds like an update of The Big Chill.
ReplyDeletenever heard of that one, Debs
DeleteI love that they added Morgan Freeman to the cast of Las Vegas! He is a great actor.
ReplyDeleteChris Pine is nothing short of handsome! How come he isn't in that pirate outfit from yesterday? Sorry, that was rude. Of course I'm interested in his movie because it's a comedy, not just because he's cute =)))
Ironman III - yea!!!
he is handsome, a bit too cocky for my taste, but handsome.
DeleteI still don't like Amy Adams as Lois Lane.
ReplyDeletehope she will seduce you when the film comes out :) It is a bit strange, since she is ten years older than Henry.
DeleteI kind of feel the same way. And I like Amy Adams in general
DeleteEmily Blunt would've been my first choice.
DeleteAll straight men will see of that picture of Amy Adams you posted are her bewbs. Gimmie more Chris Pine. He'd make a great blond
ReplyDeleteI know, that's why I love to post that pic of Amy :) I do not discriminate, you know :)
DeleteYep, Chris is better looking as blond than as a brunette :)
Won't Back Down looks wonderful. I love the idea behind it. I hope they can pull it off. Adam's film sounds good too.
ReplyDeletewe should all take over the schools like the two of them :)
DeleteShe's the new Louis Lane? wow that should be interesting...she wouldn't of been my first choice either.
ReplyDeleteshe is, G, where have you been? :) That casting was made last year :)
DeleteWON'T BACK DOWN looks interesting. I like those kind of stories where people can make a difference.
ReplyDeleteyep, they are very inspiring!
DeleteMantivities lol nice at least the title is original
ReplyDeleteit sure is an original title :)
DeleteAmy Adams is a pretty actress and I like her acting. Chris is yummy. That trailer is interesting
ReplyDeleteshe is indeed, one of the best out there, and with Michelle Williams probably the only American thespian.
DeleteAmy adams is so stunning
ReplyDeletebreathtaking
DeleteDezzy! I missed my Barre 3 class to carve out some time to indulge in some blog hopping - so if I get fat, it's your fault ;-) Seriously though, I just wanted to drop by and say "hello". (Oh, and Dark Place sounds really interesting. The hubby has a huge crush on Amy Adams. LOL)
ReplyDeleteI've no idea what's Barre 3, Sammy :) Isn't it easier to burn fat with some marital nocturnal activities? :)
DeleteI'm liking the sound of Dark Places. I sometimes like a darker story like that, and I think those movies are sometimes better told with an upbeat sort of actress like Adams in the main role. Kind of balances things out in a way.
ReplyDeleteand she really is always great in dramas... she was nominated for an Oscar more than once.
DeleteI LOVE that you call Cavill Henrilicious, Dez! You're absolutely right though. Lucky Amy to get to play Lois Lane opposite him [sigh]
ReplyDeletehe is Henrylicious, isn't he?
DeleteWon't Back Down sounds awesome! And I love the cast for Last Vegas - should be fun with those 3!
ReplyDeleteit will be a hilarious comedy for sure
DeleteRobert Downey Jr and you don't care about Iron Man 3? Ohhh, I'm disappointed!! tisk tisk lol
ReplyDeletethat might be the only thing he and me have in common. Can't stand the guy :)
DeleteI love the trailer, but they stole my title for a blog post. Also, I love Amy Adams in anything!
ReplyDeletewe love her in anything too, both literally and metaphorically :)
Deletethat Coldblood chap sounds like an interesting character.
ReplyDeletehe will be a nice little villain
DeleteThe Iron Man franchise isn't that bad!
ReplyDeleteI try to avoid it :)
DeleteI can't help but love Iron Man. It's sad, but I do.
ReplyDelete'tis sad :))
DeleteOh how I love my Iron Man. I can't wait for the third movie.
ReplyDeleteThis trailer looks good, I hope it avoids all the cliches of school dramas.
I think Morgan Freeman is the perfect addition to the cast with Douglas and DeNiro. Still, I'd love to see Walken in there. He's crazy cool to me.
I'm just happy they didn't add Pacino... I don't like his pompous style of acting.
DeleteAmy Adams is hot! Boing!
ReplyDeleteI like Morgan Freeman, he is a great actor! Should be a perfect fit for Last Vegas!
boing indeed :) I've posted a number of her pics from that particular photo session and they are all delish :)
DeleteDark places sounds really intriguing...It sounds like something from a book
ReplyDeleteit's a real story
DeleteHere we are
ReplyDeleteAll caught up at your bar
Even if I am far
Away from my car
Which is true
And yes Morgan Freeman makes a great addition to the crew
which bar, I don't own a bar? Tell me you're not sitting on my chocolate bar? Or my golden bar?
DeleteDark... places? Tell me more, tell me more.
