WILL SMITH WILL BE
'SELLING TIME' IN NEW SF MOVIE
Now, here's an interesting movie plot. According to 'Deadline' Will Smith has been offered the lead role in D.J. Caruso's SELLING TIME film in which the story follows a man who sells chunks of his life in an attempt to relive the worst day of his life so that he can change a tragedy. Speaking of Will Smith, you will see him next month in WINTER'S TALE and he also has a booked role in COLOSSUS, playing a man who is trying to save the world from a super computer, and he also has plans to star in two INDEPENDENCE DAY sequels - one in 2016 and one in 2017.

TELEVISION UPDATES
WES BROWN IN 'SONGBYRD'
In today's television news, E!'s first scripted series SONGBYRD has found it's hunky male lead. The show, in which Bethany Joy Lenz from ONE TREE HILL will play Lauren Byrd, songwriter of popular pop hits and love ballads with unhappy private love life, will see Wes Brown playing Justin, Lauren’s sexy, soulful, love interest. The show is inspired by the life of real life hitmaker Diane Warren who wrote tones of pop classics for Celine Dion, Toni Braxton, Whitney Houston...
NETFLIX 'SENSE8' SF SERIES
Netflix has, meanwhile, revealed more about the characters in their upcoming new sf series SENSE8. Coming from MATRIX masterminds The Wachovskis  the show will be a gripping global tale of minds linked and souls hunted focusing on eight telepathically linked individuals from around the world. Mysterious forces will try to unite and destroy eight of them: an Icelandic party chick, a German safe-cracker, a Korean businesswoman, an African bus driver, a closeted Mexican telenovela beefcake, a transgender American blogger – plus Jonas, a supposedly magic African-American who manifests to all of the “visionaries”, and his evil nemesis, “Mr. Whispers.”
RORY O'MALLEY IN 'BRADDOCK & JACKSON'
Another charming hunk, Rory O'Malley has joined Kelsey Grammer and Martin Lawrence in new FX series BRADDOCK AND JACKSON, a 10 episode comedy series in which Grammer and Lawrence play Chicago lawyers from vastly different backgrounds who develop a partnership after they unexpectedly meet in court on the worst day of their lives. Rory will play the irreverent office manager of their law firm.

    1. I would agree with you, the same as we don't need Will's BAD BOYS III and he is shooting that too

  4. Really excited about Sense8 . . . hopefully it lives up to expectations, given how long they've been talking about it.

    1. Fingers crossed, Bob. New year is bringing us a lot of such para psychological, apocalyptic and creepy shows

  5. i have crossed fingers for smith, i think that sometimes actors want to stretch their acting skills too much and then forget what made them famous...

    1. 'tis true, Jeremy. Will thinks he can win an Oscar some day.... I wouldn't agree, but then again so many horrible actors have won it over the years....

    1. yep, that one, with his son, was awful, but at least it didn't have his horrid brat of a daughter in it :)

  7. To me Will Smith needs a hit, his movies lately have been poor!

  8. I'm avoiding Will Smith at all cost ;-) Sense8 looks interesting, though.

  9. Will is certainly out there trying to put some thing together. Hope he has success this year.

  10. I like Will Smith, a great actor in my opinion !
    Maybe, my preferred movie of him is "I'm a Legend", a splendid remake of the mythic film with Charlton Heston !

    1. Hope you read my recent interview with Shaun Smith, Sam Wise, the man who did make up and effects in I'M A LEGEND :)

  11. Interesting concept. Bring it on, Mr. Smith. :)

    ReplyDelete
  12. Sounds similar to the I, Robot premise..

    ReplyDelete
  13. So, I like the concept of the movie, but I try to avoid Will Smith if possible. His ego is pretty inflated. He's almost in the same boat with Tom Cruise as far as my dislike goes.

    1. yep, I always thought Will was a black version of Tom Cruise when it comes to egomania :)

  14. About the unplugged oven ... Oy. That's not good. No cake for them, eh?

  15. Selling Time does sound like a compelling movie.

    ReplyDelete
  16. I like Will Smith and most of his movies and I'm definitely interested in Sense8 :)

    ReplyDelete
  17. Sense8 sounds intriguing. Rory is very cute, isn't he? He's the only reason I'll watch Braddock and Jackson. :)

    ReplyDelete
  18. Is it wrong that I am just completely over Will Smith, his wife and his offspring? Because I just completely am...

    ReplyDelete
  19. Wild wild West is the only movie of Will Smith I really liked. Don't know for this one??

    Greetings
