KARL URBAN TO JOIN
JASON MOMOA IN 'AQUAMAN'?
According to 'Latino Review' Warner Bros. is planning on our beloved Karl Urban to take a supporting, possibly villain, role in AQUAMAN! Last year we announced that the superhero movie will have a 2018 summer release date and will star Jason Momoa in the lead role. He will probably appear first in BATMAN VS SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE and then in two JUSTICE LEAGUE movies as well. Karl Urban is doing STAR TREK 3 this year as Dr. Bones, and he has also been announced as the lead in THE WONDER fantasy adventure about a group of schoolkids who follow a rainbow that magically transports them to China, where they find themselves pursued by a mysterious organization as well as the cause of a natural disaster.

ReplyDeleteThis one does sound promising, almost like FIREFLY without space ships :)
DeleteI loved Firefly!
DeleteWe all did, we all did
DeleteFirefly... what's that?
Deletea fly on fire
DeleteKarl Urban was one of the few bright spots of the Trek reboot, so I'm curious to see what role he plays in Aquaman.
ReplyDeleteagreed, I mostly watched new STAR TREK for him! He is the most unused actor in Hollywood. And I still hate Fox for cancelling ALMOST HUMAN and now they're ordering tones of very similar shows.
DeleteI'm very excited to see how the DC adaptation of Aquaman turns out. I bet it's excellent. All the underwater shots will be awesome.
ReplyDeletehope they do it epic style!
DeleteKarl Urban is very versatile. I loved him as Bones and he was awesome in The Chronicles of Riddick.
ReplyDeletehe was so brilliant as Lord Dracko in RIDDICK! But I love him to bits in all of his roles, and best as Lord Eomer, the master of Rohirims and leader of Eorlings, the riders of Rohan :)
DeleteOrla Brady - anything. I like her.
ReplyDeleteShe is gorgeous!
DeleteI wish she were my neighbor.
DeleteSo that you can listen to her snoring at night?
DeleteDig that man, Karl Urban... he is one of the coolest cats I know... well I don't really know him, though met him once.
ReplyDeletehe's our favourite tomcat, he truly is!
DeleteYay, Karl Urban news. Definitely a favorite. :)
ReplyDeletethe most underrrated actor in Hollywood next to Patrick Wilson, Jude Law and Ewan McGregor
DeleteOh how I love Karl Urban. He's amazing in everything.

ReplyDeleteI did announce it last year :) when I announced both Marvel's adn DC's slate of films for next five or six years
DeleteEmily Beecham looks familiar but I can't quite place where I've seen her.
ReplyDeleteI personally watched her in brilliant BBC's THE VILLAGE series!
DeleteKarl Urban makes a great Dr McCoy in Star Trek! That's the only thing I've seen him in.
ReplyDeleteyou surely remember him as Caesar and Kupid in XENA? You haven't watched XENA? I never would have believed it, Debs :)
DeleteI love Karl Urban. It's kind of fun that he's not limiting himself to just good guys, though I love his good guys. Even enigmatic bad/good guys like his character in Reds are fun.
ReplyDeletehe is such a versatile actor and the biggest of Earth's hunks and we do lurv him so and even more :)
DeleteI read on another blog that Aquaman will be coming out. That should be a good one!
ReplyDeletehopefully epic
DeleteI must be living under a rock. I have never heard of Karl Urban before. He seems to be making a splash in Hollywood though!
ReplyDeleteDa hell? He's been working for twenty years or so and is my most beloved one... He had ALMOST HUMAN show at Fox last year and was in STAR TREK, JUDGE DREDD, LORD OF THE RINGS, RIDDICK and many other flicks
DeleteWho is Karl Urban?
