TOBIAS SANTELMANN JOINS
DWAYNE JOHNSON, RUFUS SEWELL, JOSEPH FIENNES IN HERCULES
According to "The Hollywood Reporter" Scandinavian actor Tobias
Santelmann is the latest one to join the cast of Brett Ratner's
HERCULES: THE THRACIAN WARS. The epic adventure has Dwayne Johnson (who
will have a long hair in the film) in the lead role of the son of Zeus
who leaves the gods behind to live in exile as a mercenary for hire,
along with his six trusted companions and is put to the test that makes
him question everything he once believed. Tobias Santelmann (whom you've
seen in KON TIKI and who will also star in NORTHMEN A VIKING SAGA) will
play Rhesus, a barbarian revolutionary who faces off against the
legendary hero. Rufus 
Sewell will play Autolycus the son of the
messenger god Hermes. Aksel Hennie is playing Hercules' axe-wielding
sidekick Tydeus while Ian McShane will play Amphiarus, a priest,
prophet, and warrior who serves as Hercules' adviser. Joseph Fiennes
will play the pampered king who assigns Hercules his labours. John Hurt
will play the weary ruler of Thrace, while Rebecca Ferguson (the lead in
current TV hit THE WHITE QUEEN) will play his daughter, a
healer. Gorgeous Russian top model Irina Shayk will play Megara!
NEW SEQUELS FOR
JURASSIC PARK, WORLD WAR Z, INDEPENDENCE DAY
You
probably already know that up in 2015 we can expect new prehistoric
adventures in JURASSIC PARK 4, but I bet you didn't know this charming
little detail: the new movie will feature underwater dinosaurs! The film
will be set at the Sea World-style resort on Isla Nublar, where
dinosaurs such as velociraptors and tyrannosaurus rexes will be tamed
and muzzled, while in one sequence a giant underwater beast will
allegedly jump out of a lagoon and eat a strung-up great white shark.
Another 90's blockbuster INDEPENDENCE DAY is also getting its sequel in 2015 with Bill Pullman and Jeff Goldblum, but without Will Smith
who asked for too much money. And current blockubster WORLD WAR Z,
which earned more than $100 million in its opening weekend worldwide, is
also getting a sequel at Paramount. The movie, which was originally
planned as a trilogy, will have Brad Pitt again in the lead role.
DA VINCI'S DEMONS FOR 5 SEASONS
'WALKING DEAD' PRISON UPGRADED
In today's television news, David S. Goyer, the creator of this year's biggest television hit DA VINCI'S DEMONS has revealed that the story 
of Leonardo Da Vinci, genius and inventor played by Tom Riley in the show, will be told in five seasons! The second run of the show, which is aired in more than 150 countries around the world, has been greenlit after the successful airing of the first opening episode back in April! The first three seasons are apparently already meticulously mapped out. Meanwhile, another worldwide sensation THE WALKING DEAD (aired in almost 180 countries around the world within the same week) will get an improved prison in the fourth season! Since the previous run culminated with dozens and dozens of new people joining Rick and his group in the 
prison, the structure will be expanded and upgraded to fit the survivors of the zombie outbreak. They will need shelter since it was also announced that the zombies will become much freakier and more threatening from this Autumn!
no shoes, no shirt... no service though i would still let her in...
ReplyDeleteor maybe she would let you in... if you know what me means....
Deletediggity do!
Deletewink wink
DeleteNow now you boys!! Hahaha :)
Delete;)
DeleteIrina nice...me likey!
Deletesee, now you are happy you listened to me and came over :)
DeleteI'm afraid Jurassic 4 sounds a bit like Jaws 4 which also took place at some sea world type place as I recall and received the most horrific ratings. I AM interested in the Walking Dead which I miss terribly since cutting off my satellite television but I have some catching up to do :)
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen JURASSIC PARK 3, so I don't see the point of the fourth one, but I'm sure it will bring some serious cash to the studio. They might even open a park based on it after the film....
DeleteWALKING DEAD should be interesting especially since most of the new people are not young and capable but older - the writers always make it tough for Ricks :(
Oh dear. Do Rufus Sewell, Joseph Fiennes and John Hurt have nothing better to do these days?
ReplyDeleteI'm actually dying to see them in an epic film :) Imagine RufRuf and Josie in sandals and loin cloth :)
Deletewow at Irina Shayk
ReplyDeletethat is the reaction I expected while choosing the pic :)
Delete2015 ... Jurassic Park It's too late , another great movie on perspective ;) .
ReplyDeleteCheers .
glad you like it, Vincent :)
DeleteI quite like Da Vinci's Demons although its hard to keep up - five seasons will make it even more of a challenge! I'm glad to hear that Walking Dead will be getting a bit of a revamp - the end of season three was a tad disappointing but there are plenty of storylines in it still going - the zombies (who move so slow but constantly appear outa nowhere) need work - perhaps not up to World War Z speeds - but an improvement here will be welcome too. Great series. And thank you Chika Dezi for the snap of the gorgeous Irina. Damn she's hawt!
ReplyDeleteI hope we will see more of Leo's cool inventions in the new season and less of mysticism, and I hope the amount of nudity in it will remain on a high level :))
DeleteThey will do something with the zombies - they will either come in bigger masses or will become more resilient.
I knew my boys would like Irina, I've chosen that pic very carefully :)
I love Dino's, but the thought of a T-Rex being tamed and muzzled makes me sad. The graphics will be good on this with all the advances the people with "Walking With Dinosaurs" have made.
ReplyDeleteI wonder what did they use to tame Trex with? A pig on a stick or something?
DeleteMore like a cow on a stick. A pig is so small it would just piss the T-Rex off.
Deletepoor cows....
DeleteUnderwater dinosaurs! Sounds like it might be interesting.
ReplyDeleteit's Avatar meets Jurrasic Park :)
DeleteFreakier zombies is just what we need...because limbs falling off, brains spilling out, and gnawing on human flesh isn't enough. :P
ReplyDeletewell in apocalypse you need to have higher standards in freakishness, you know :) I just hope zombies won't learn how to unlock doors....
DeleteJurassic Park 4 should be good!
ReplyDeletetotally :)
DeleteOh my. She's covering her strawberry. Why oh why no pic of muscle bound hunk Dwayne? Sigh. I'm so disappointed.
ReplyDeletenow drop your pants, Michael, because I will spank your bum: a day or two ago we had a whole post dedicated to Dwayne... where were you? Just scroll down a bit...
DeleteI loved Independence Day and Will Smith in it. I suppose a sequel will work with the right leading man and good script.
ReplyDeleteI think they should give the Jurassic Park movie a subtitle, not a number, considering the last movie was years ago.
I wonder where will the president preside since the White House was destroyed in the first one :)
DeleteUnderwater dinosaurs? Sounds right up my alley!
ReplyDeleteyou have underwater dinosaurs in your alley?
DeleteNo, but I think I'd quite like some :)
DeleteAs long as you know what to feed them with....
DeleteTobias is sure a yummy blond. Too bad you didn't have a semi nude pic of him. I got grossed out seeing Irina's ugly bits. There could be anything hiding in there. Blech!
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of...Why do they always get talentless models to play the women in these big action flicks? Honestly, there are gorgeous actresses.
we do like them Nordic :) There is one seminude pic of him (http://pub.cdn.tv2.no/multimedia/TV2/archive/01030/mestnakne_1030525i.jpg) but it's not a studio photo shoot so I couldn't use it :)
DeleteI could swear that Irina has absolutely no ugly bits on her glorious self :) And we don't really know if she's talentless or not yet :) I like the usage of Russian ladies in Hollywood flicks like Svetlana Kholodchenkova in WOLVERINE :)
Dezz, models are always are poor actresses because they have to learn expression in the eyes for posing. They never do dialogue right, ever. And I've had with it Russian ladies, there are far more beautiful women in this world. ;)
Deletenot really, Slavic beauties are unparalleled :) And take Isabella Scorupco, she was both gorgeous and talented in GOLDENEYE and in REIGN OF FIRE :) Charlize Theron was also once a top model :)
DeleteWhy don't you like Russian ladies? Is it to do with your Cold War with the Soviet Union?
DeleteI have loads of Russians visiting my blog. They are my third largest country and on some days they outdo the British. The Russian people have suffered terribly over the centuries do to their own government. They know the importance of family, of music, and close social bonds. They are a wonderful people.
yes, Russians have Slavic soul which means they are very similar to Celtic soul :) They like food, drink and music.
DeleteI didn't realize they were making another Jurassic Park. Looks like fun at the movies in 2015.
ReplyDeleteyes, indeed, especially since they announced CINDERELLA will premier in March 2015 today :)
DeleteI went and saw WWZ yesterday and didn't think much of it. It was just Brad Pitt jumping from one unlikely situation to the next. There was no character development in any of the characters either. Meh. Maybe I was hoping for too much.
