AMC 'BADLANDS' SERIES
MARTIAL ARTS EPIC ADVEN- TURE Deadline reports that David Dobkin has been hired by AMC to direct their new fantasy series BADLANDS! Emily Beecham (28 Weeks Later), Sarah Bolger (The Tudors) and Oliver Stark (The Curse Of The Midas Box) have been cast as regulars. The six episode series is described as a genre bending martial arts series very loosely based on the classic Chinese tale “Journey to the
West.” In a land controlled by feudal
barons, it tells the story of a great warrior and a young boy who embark
on a journey across a dangerous land to find enlightenment. Emily Beecham
plays The Widow, a regal beauty and a cunning strategist with
extravagant, high fashion taste who has gained power the old fashioned
way – she’s spilled blood for it. Sarah Bolger plays Jade, a porcelain beauty who masks her ambition with fragile innocence. Oliver Stark plays the warrior’s son Ryer who has not lived up to his father’s expectations.
'CAKE' TRAILER WITH
JENNIFER ANISTON, ANNA KENDRICK & SAM WORTHINGTON
After days of enchanting fantasy trailers, here's a grimmer one today: Jennifer Aniston's drama CAKE in which she gives, possibly Oscar worthy, portrayal of a woman who suffers from chronic pain and who begins to investigate the suicide of a fellow group member, Nina (Anna Kendrick) whom she barely knew but she keeps appearing in her dreams! These questions give her a new-found, if slightly disturbing, sense of purpose, and she unapologetically inserts herself into the lives of the husband (Sam Worthington) and son Nina left behind. But her search for answers will yield wholly unexpected results!
Well, I am not a Jennifer Aniston fan at all, but I gotta admit that "Cake" looks good. I will go see it.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad she is taking more of such dramatic roles! She does have talent for it and she already got a huge support from many people who live with constant pain, they say she put every single detail into her portrayal.
DeleteWow, I've never seen Jennifer Aniston like that. I'm not a fan of hers either but I want to see the movie after that trailer.
ReplyDeleteshe is great in it, isn't she?
DeleteKidman & Witherspoon - interesting combo. Based on the time frame - Badlands sounds okay. Cake - oh wow - Aniston and I could be twins - that's weird.
ReplyDeleteThat is how you look like? I've never asked you how old are you, if it is not impolite to ask :)
DeleteI think I'm 10 years older than her, but that poster is...like looking in a mirror. She has darker eyelashes - and her nose is a little bigger than mine. Wow!
Deleteshe has a Greek nose :)
DeleteWhen I compare my pics with celebrity pics on those sites which try to find your celeb lookalike, my result is usually that Justin Timberlake is my lookalike, but I don't believe it :)
Either way - we''re both prettier!
DeleteSo I'm guessing it's not about tasty cakes?
ReplyDeletemost probably not
DeleteI haven't liked any of Aniston's movies since she left Friends. However, Cake looks different from her bubblegum girly girl image she usually plays. I think I will like this one very much.
ReplyDeleteme neither, I liked her romcoms but from the FRIENDS era such as OBJECT OF MY AFFECTION, and PICTURE OF YOU.
DeleteFinally! A movie to bring out Jenn Aniston's genuine talent.
ReplyDeleteshe did show it in that film from ten years ago in which she played a cashier
DeleteWow, that trailer with Anniston looks compelling. My hubby is someone who deals to chronic pain, so I'm really feeling this movie.
ReplyDeleteYep, she is getting really good response from those who, like your hubs, deal with chronic pain, they say she is portraying them perfectly
DeleteNicole Kidman and Reese Witherspoon... Is the drool apparent?
ReplyDeletewe shall put a bucket under your chin
DeleteHi Dez....
ReplyDeleteI absolutely hate Aniston...hate...did I say hate?
And...Reese Witherspoon would be lucky to actually look like that in real life...
Really Blue? Drooling over WItherspoon???
I expected more from you....MUCH more...
Geesh...what side of the bed did I get up on?
The side where I hate Aniston...
I feel so much better...
enjoy your evening Dez...
Cheers!
Linda :o)
Blue does like them Nicole Kidmanish and Reese Witherspoonish :) It's strange he didn't marry a blond :)
DeleteHope Thanksgiving dinner is going nice at your palace!
I am Canadian Dez....
DeleteWe had our Thanksgiving in October....
Man....I am still pissed at Aniston!
ah, I was wondering why you're cooking fish for Thanksgiving LOL :)
