MICHAEL FASSBENDER IN 'SLOW WEST' WESTERN WITH CODY SMITH MCPHEE & WITH KATE WINSLET IN 'STEVE JOBS' BIOPIC! MATTHEW MCCONAUGHEY IN 'BORN TO RUN' AND 'GOLD' MOVIES

'STEVE JOBS' BIOPIC
TO UNITE MICHAEL FASSBENDER AND KATE WINSLET ON FILM
Talk about a dream duo! According to latest news we could soon see a rather stunning pairing, both visually and talentwise, of Kate Winslet and Michael Fassbender on the big screen! Michael Fassbender will take the lead role in STEVE JOBS biopic to be directed by Danny Boyle. Seth Rogen will appear as Steve Wozniak, while Kate Winslet will portray former Macintosh marketing boss Joanna Hoffman! Jeff Daniels will appear in the film as former Apple CEO John Sculley! The production is already underway in San Francisco. 
FASSY GOES 'SLOW WEST'
Speaking of Michael Fassbender, his latest movie SLOW WEST has been sold both in US and Canada. Set at the end of the 19th century, the movie follows the story of 16-year-old Jay Cavendish (Cody Smit McPhee) as he journeys across the American frontier in search of the woman he loves. He is joined by Silas (Michael Fassbender), a mysterious traveller, and hotly pursued along the way by an outlaw named Payne (Ben Mendelsohn).

MATTHEW MCCONAUGHEY
WAS 'BORN TO RUN'!
Another casting update comes from the big screen movie adaptation of Christopher McDougall's bestselling novel  BORN TO RUN: A Hidden Tribe, Super Athletes, And The Greatest Race The World Has Never Seen! Matthew McConaughey is set to lead the cast in the story of how an award winning journalist and often injured runner headed for Mexico’s isolated, deadly Copper Canyons to find out how the blissful Tarahumara Indians honed the ability to run hundreds of miles without rest or injury. He tags along to discover their secrets and takes us from Harvard science labs to sun-baked valleys and freezing peaks across North America, where ever growing numbers of ultra runners are pushing their bodies to the limit. This led to a climactic race in the Copper Canyons that pitted America’s best ultra-runners against the tribe.
GOLD
Matthew McConaughey will also star in GOLD,  a true story about the 1993 Bre-X Mineral Corporation mining scandal in which vast amounts of gold were reportedly discovered in the Indonesian jungle.

    I just watched Jobs this weekend and noticed the marked absence of any female actors--as well as barely any mention of Microsoft. I can't wait to see this new version, which I understand had Steve Wozniak as a consultant?

      To be played by Seth Rogen. I've no idea who he is, I don't follow computer world :) All I know that Steve Jobs kinda exploited poor workers in Asia who worked for nothing in order to build up his empire.

    Why do we need another bio-pic of the Jobs, really... why doesn't someone write a movie about me. Wait, I know I am just a boring ol' zombie... :)

    You know I loves me some Kate! But I don't think I could sit through another film about Jobs.

    Gold sounds promising.

    I guess those car commercials made him an even hotter item than he already was. I still love his lines in Magic Mike. CAN YOU TOUCH THIS?? No no no no no. Swoon...

      I'm guessing you're talking about McConaughey :) I've only seen his terrible perfume commercials with that horrid Scarlett Johannson

    Stay gold, McConaughey.
    Can totally see MMc in both of those roles. I can see him learning from the Tarahumara as a person not just in a role!

    Winslet just get better and better as she gets older. And McConaughey looks so much healthier at a normal weight. lol

    You can't tell from this picture but something happened to Matthew McConaughey's face, like he's been on drugs or so. Skinny.
