Yet, another foreign film to be shot in Serbia's capital Belgrade, after recent shooting of LOCKDOWN with
Guy Pearce, THERESE RAQUINN with
Jessica Lange, RAVEN with
Luke Evans and John Cusack and CORIOLANUS with
Gerard Butler and
Ralph Fiennes, is
ENEMY OF MAN, a new British drama. The film is being described as the new adaptation of Shakespeare's famous play MACBETH about a war hero and the lure of ambition and descent into hell. To be directed by great British actor
Vincent Regan (300, TROY, CAMELOT, SNOW WHITE AND THE HUNTSMAN), the
film will see
Rupert Grint as Rosse, French actress
Charlotte Gainsbourg as Lady Mackbeth, and
James D'Arcy as Banquo. It is interesting that Regan played in sf action LOCKDOWN which was also shot in Belgrade.

MERLIN SEASON 5 TRAILER
Your clip for today is the first trailer announcing the fifth season of BBC fantasy show
MERLIN which
is the series watched in the biggest number of countries around the world. Starring amazing
Colin Morgan as Merlin and
Bradley James as King Arthur, the new season will have ten episodes and will feature a much stronger, focused and powerful Merlin than before. The fifth series, to be aired later this September on BBC, will be more focused on the legends that the main characters will later on become and will see them three years after the time in which the fourth season ended. The exciting trailer features swordplay, epic battles, dragons and sorcery to the tune of Muse's 'Knights of Cydonia'.
great thor news... i am looking forward to the sequel... i am really interested in merlin too... i just need to catch up.
ReplyDeleteThere's a lot to catch up when it comes to MERLIN, at least when it comes to the seasons, stories not so much, not much changed from the beginning...
DeleteLikey like like. Nom. As you were.
ReplyDeleteshouldn't there be two nom noms? :)
Deletetoo short trailer!
ReplyDeletebut gives me to see the 1th season, the 2th season, the 3th season, etc.... :)
Christopher Eccleston was an excellent Dr Who!
(he might have return to the place of this pathetic Matt Smith...)
...so it will be a pleasure for me to see him in a movie...
there aren't many battles in MERLIN, Samwise, but it's a nice relaxing series without the morbid everpresent darkness we are suffocated with in other shows and movies.
DeleteI'm not a fan of Battles! (even in the PJ LOTR movies, I think that they are too much full of battles!) so it could a good serie for me!
Delete(I love the mini serie "Cadfael" for example.)
there's humour in MERLIN too :)
DeleteMerlin looks awesome this season....can't wait
ReplyDeletehope Merlin will wield some real magic this year :)
DeleteNice trailer...I look forward to seeing it ~
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine Nicole playing Grace Kelly, who I really admire ~
Happy day to you ~
I can't either, Heaven, she is the total opposite of what Grace was.
DeleteI actually think that Nicole Kidman could do that part justice. You don't like her for the part?
ReplyDeleteI don't. She's the total opposite of what Grace was - Kelly was grace, ellegance, refinement, feminine gentleness, while Nicole is awkward, cold, frozen, stiff, bottoxed, wooden.... Have you seen Nicole in last week's PAPER BOY trailer? She overdone her plastic surgeries and now looks like a Frankenstein. She can't even move her cheeks and forehead.
DeleteI literally just finished watching Lockdown! I know you're not highlighting that film today, but, wow! What a great movie!! I didn't know it was filmed in Belgrade, Dezz, I had forgotten.
ReplyDeleteglad you liked it, I haven't seen it yet, but I do love me sf films :) Yep, a huge studio was built for that film here in Belgrade.
DeleteLotsa good stuff coming up!
ReplyDeleteglad you approve, Debs!
DeleteCannot wait for new Merlin! I am so addicted to that show. Just like am The Walking Dead.
ReplyDeleteThat is so great about the Macbeth adaptation filming in Serbia. It sounds like it will be terrific.
yep, those two will be our pastimes this Fall :)
DeleteWonder who will play Macbeth, maybe me? Or is me better suited for a witch beside the cauldron role? :)) Wish the two of us could get those roles, Melsy, we would have such a blast beside the bubbling pot :)
Can't wait really.
ReplyDeletereally and indeed
Deleteit's so strange seeing a young young Merlin
ReplyDeletenot so much after five years of show
DeleteI love that show. The trailer makes it look darker than the other seasons. I guess we'll see.
ReplyDeleteI hope it won't get too dark, I'd hate that!
DeleteI'm looking forward to Merlin although I know I'll eventually start complaining about the bad writing.
ReplyDeleteAnd this is off topic, but Paz Vega looks hot in that pic.
agreed on both :) If they don't give some momentum to MERLIN and give him more powers, it will become tedious :(
DeleteNow I'm getting slightly worried... no Cat to be found?
