saga by Cassandra Clare INFERNAL DEVICES has already been greenlit in Hollywood! While THE MORTAL INSTRUMENTS follows a young girl in contemporary times who discovers she is from a race of angels known as Shadowhunters, and that her kind has been locked in an age-old battle with a sect of vampires known as the Downworlders, INFERNAL DEVICES will trade back alley raves for Victorian England, following a new girl who goes on a journey of self-discovery and also following ancestors of some of the characters from THE MORTAL INSTRUMENTS. The fantasy prequel also consists of three books!

STUNNING 'ROMEO & JULIET' TRAILER
Here's the long awaited and absolutely breathtaking trailer for the new movie adaptation of William Shakespeare's famous tragedy ROMEO AND JULIET! Directed by Italian moviemaker Carlo Carlei the film is set in the fair city of Verona. Romeo (Douglas Booth) and Juliet (Hailee Steinfeld),
the children of the feuding Montague and Capulet families, meet at a
feast and fall deeply in love. Despite the sworn disdain their families
hold for one another, they steal away and are secretly wed by Friar
Laurence (Paul
Giamatti). It is not long, however, before trouble ensues… Unaware of his daughter’s transgressions, Lord Capulet (Damian Lewis), Juliet’s father, has arranged for Juliet to take the hand of Count Paris (Tom
Wisdom) in marriage. Devastated and
defiant Juliet seeks the counsel of Friar Laurence, who concocts a
devious plan that will alter the lives of both families forever. The cast also includes Holy Hunter, Stellan Skarsgard, Ed Westwick....
Romeo and Juliet looks lovely - I'll be looking forward to it :)
ReplyDeleteIt's a lovely and refreshing period film, isn't it? Loved the music in the trailer too. I will have a similar period set film trailer tomorrow too - also gorgeous
Delete"Romeo and Juliet" looks like a credible film version of the play, although the gawdawful poster for it suggests otherwise. It will be interesting to see Damian Lewis do Shakespeare -- we're watching him right now in "Homeland."
ReplyDeleteit looks like an authentic piece with refreshing visuals and music and the cast is lovely.
DeleteI kinda like the poster :)
Oh, Romeo and Juliet! Swoon. I've been waiting so long for this one. Looks stunning. :)))
ReplyDeleteI like it too, looks marvellous :)
DeleteOMG, Dez, just watched the trailer for Romeo and Juliet. I've got to see it!
ReplyDeleteit will be out some time later this year, doesn't yet have a release date.
DeleteI love Michael Caine. Been a fan of his since, what, Blame It On Rio (1984?)
ReplyDeleteI loved him most in THE QUIET AMERICAN.
DeleteBut I didn't like him when I was little because he always looked so strange :)
Ever seen Dirty Rotten Scoundlers?
Deletenope, is that a film about me and you? :)
DeleteCould be. CLICK!
Deleteyep, that scene with Steve Martin at the beach in speedos could be you, Blue :PPP
DeleteYou remembered my SPEEDOS... I'm touched...
Deletepffttt.... I thought you knew me better..... I'd forget my own brain before I forget speedos...... :)
Deleteshe's cute for Juliet
ReplyDeleteshe is
DeleteIsn't the Clockwork Angel originally a fanfiction that was on Livejournal? I've heard there were some legal problems with it.
ReplyDeleteI've no idea what Clockwork Angel is, Damien.
DeleteGood to hear about INFERNAL DEVICES.
ReplyDeleteThat Romeo and Jules looks mighty fine.
mighty fine is the right description :)
DeleteRomeo and Juliet looks like it will be good. I didn't think it would be when I first saw it was coming out. I thought it was going to be "tweened" up but after seeing this preview, I think otherwise.
ReplyDeleteyep, it is a good and promising trailer!
DeleteThe Trailer of Romeo and Juliet is perfect, I love it very much! Douglas and Hailee have a good chemistry! Douglas as Romeo is fantastic!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for Clockwork Angel movie! I love Cassie Clare's saga!

DeleteOh I can't bare to watch Romeo & Juliet in the theaters. Such a handsome boy that ends up dead. I don't want to cry that much.
ReplyDeleteyep, lovely Booth gets the boot in the film :)
DeleteThat Romeo and Juliet music is wonderful. I'll have to see this one.
ReplyDeleteI think they've used a song from Florence and the Machine in the trailer, it's lovely :)
DeleteI like watching Michael and Ben, act.
ReplyDeleteMichael epsecially :)
ReplyDeleteRomeo and Juliet looks astounding! i can't wait. And I will sit through a teen flick if it means looking at Aiden. I really don't like all of these teen flicks coming out.
