'2:22' SF ROMANCE WITH
SAM REID AND MICHIEL HUISMAN
Two new sf projects are looming over the horizon: first, new romantic sf thriller 2:22 will star shooting this year in Australia with charismatic Sam Reid joining Michiel Huisman (Game Of Thrones) and Teresa Palmer! Huisman will be Dylan Branson, a man whose life is permanently derailed when an ominous pattern of events repeats itself in exactly the same manner every day, ending at precisely 2:22 PM. When he falls for Sarah (Teresa Palmer), a beautiful woman whose life is threatened by these strange events, Dylan must solve the mystery to preserve a love whose second chance has finally come. Sam Reid will play the rival love interest.
ELLE FANNING IN 'IO' SF FILM
The second sf project also has a very short title IO and will star
Elle Fanning as a teen surviving as one of the last people on an
abandoned post cataclysmic Earth, who is racing to find a cure for her
poisoned home world before the last shuttle off the planet to the
distant human space colony leaves her stranded. Diego Luna will play a
complicated and mysterious refugee on his way to the shuttle launch who
makes her question whether she can really alter Earth’s fate. Clay Jeter
is directing.

Is Elle Fanning the British pop singer?
ReplyDeleteYou probably have Ellie Goulding or Elle Henderson in mind, this Elle is a child actress whose sister Dakota is also an actress
DeleteI think the only thing I've seen her in was Maleficent
Deleteme too, probably
DeleteIt's all about, who rules the world or what's left of it. I'll wait for a nice documentary on sloths, thanks.
ReplyDeletewe do love sloths!
Delete;p
Deleteespecially the hugging ones
DeleteA lot of sci-fi here. I love that genre.
ReplyDeleteIO sounds like it'll be intense.
Yep, that is why HOLLYWOOD SPY is one of web's leading places for historical and sf projects
DeleteNothing striking my fancy here today. You know that sci-fi is not my cup of tea, but I hope others find today's news exciting.
ReplyDeleteSam Reid's love carpet ain't striking your fancy? :)
DeleteSounds a little too "Groundhogs Day" to me. Even with the romantic aspect, I just don't see it being something I'd get overly interested in.
DeleteI love sf movies with such delicate twists, those usually stay in my mind the longest ... such as UPSIDE DOWN with Jim Sturgess or last year's SNOWPIERCER
DeleteThose sf offerings sound good. And the book reminds me of The Greatest American Hero. My oldest son was in love with that show (the guy couldn't work his superhero suit well to save his life) until my son saw a Superman movie. lol
ReplyDeleteBoys do love their superheroes!
DeleteI wonder if 2:22 can beat The Edge of Tomorrow. So far the latter has been my favorite in terms of event /time related movie plots.
ReplyDeletefingers crossed!
