TOM HARDY TO PLAY JOHN CONNOR IN 'TERMINATOR 5' NEXT TO ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER? PENN BADGLEY ALSO IN RUN FOR NIGHTWING IN 'SUPERMAN VS BATMAN' WITH HENRY CAVILL AND BEN AFFLECK! FREIDA PINTO IS 'DESERT DANCER'!

TOM HARDY IS
JOHN CONNOR IN 'TERMINATOR 5'?
Only a few days ago your trusted spy has informed you that GAME OF THRONES Emilia Clarke and actor Garret Hedlund are in line to play Sarah Connor and John Connor's father Kyle Reese in TERMINATOR 5, and now the word around Tinseltown is that Tom Hardy is the frontrunner to play John Connor! He is apparently the favourite choice of THOR THE DARK WORLD director Alan Taylor who is helming TERMINATOR 5 too! Earlier this year, we reported that Arnold Schwarzenegger (in a story that would take place after the WWII), might be playing a human sent back to protect Sarah Connor's parents, before she was even born, causing the machines to create future Terminators in his likeness! As you know, Tom Hardy is playing another 80's action hero in MAD MAX remake!
 
PENN BADGLEY IN THE RUN FOR
NIGHTWING IN 'SUPERMAN VS BATMAN'
After yesterday's news that GIRLS star Adam Driver is the frontrunner to play Nightwing in SUPERMAN VS BATMAN, there are now new reports that GOSSIP GIRL star Penn Badgley and young actor Ezra Miller have also auditioned for the role of Batman's former sidekick Robin who went his separate way in order to become a new vigilante called Nightwing. Zack Snyder is again directing with Henry Cavill as Superman, Ben Affleck as Batman, Amy Adams as Lois Lane and Diane Lane as Martha Kent. The film hits cinemas summer 2015. There  are also stories that Batman's suit won't be armour-like but very new and original faithful to one of his comic book appearances.

FREIDA PINTO IS
DESERT DANCER!
Gorgeous (but not so talented, as we have seen her rather expressionless acting in SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE, IMMORTALS and DAY OF THE FALCON) Freida Pinto is playing one of the lead roles in DESERT DANCER which has just been sold to Relativity Media for North American distribution. The drama is based on the true story of Afshin Ghaffarian (played by Reece Ritchie), who dreams of becoming a dancer in Iran, where dancing is strictly forbidden. The story is set in 2009, against the backdrop of protests that sparked a movement towards more personal freedoms in the country. The movie also stars Tom Cullen.

And my, lovelies, Dezzy is out of town today, which means I will be a bit late in responding to your comments! You're free to organize a party and trash the place while I'm not here :)

  2. Hmm, still not sold on the Batman vs Superman idea, but Nightwing is an interesting addition. Let's hope they do the story justice.

  5. When a movie has the number 5 after it, I think it's time to hang it up and do something original. Is that a bathtub Mr. Badgley is lying in? If so, I sure would like to soap him up!

  6. Anything with Tom Hardy in it has my interest. By the way, I do know the guy in the Hadley's Hope t-shirt you mentioned on my blog. He's the director of a short film called 'Residual Residence' ;-)

  8. Too bad Freida's talent doesn't match her beauty. Maybe with some practice, she'll improve.

    1. fingers crossed, she really is beautiful and sensual, just needs some depth in acting

  9. I think I like the idea of Tom Hardy as John Connors. And Freida is lovely; maybe she won't have too many lines...

  10. Robin without Batman? How can that be? That'd be like gravy without the mashed potatoes. "Desert Dancer" sounds good, though. Even if Freida can't act. Hopefully, she can dance.

    1. I bet she can.... but then again, when I think about it, I'm not sure :)

  11. Another Terminator? I guess they weren't satisfied with the TV series.
