THREE NEW EPIC TV SERIES
ON FAMED KNIGHTS TEMPLAR
Yet, another one in the whole line of upcoming series which will follow Knights Templar is KNIGHTFALL! History will make scripted series
produced by Jeremy Renner and as 'Deadline' reports it will chronicle the actual events leading up to and following the persecution, downfall and burning at the stake of the Knights Templar on Friday the 13th, 1307. More than 700 years later, Friday the 13th is known as a cursed day because of this event.

CRUSA- DERS AND TEMPLARS
I also informed you last summer that Spike TV will produce mini TV series THE CRUSADERS set during the Third Crusade, after the fall of Jerusalem to Saladin’s armies, which will follow two very different knights who journey from Scotland to the Holy Land for very different reasons. History has also announced previously their work on KNIGHTS TEMPLAR focusing on their origins. That one will bring the true story of three brothers, all knights, during the first Crusade, as they make the long journey through the Holy Lands to recapture Jerusalem, ultimately bringing rise to the Knights Templar. I'm not sure if that project is still on.

'VERONA' EPIC MOVIE TO
GIVE 'ROMEO AND JULIET' A '300' STYLE REIMAGINATION
Speaking of historical projects, here's one with an unexpected twist: William Shakespeare's ROMEO AND JULIET will get a 300 re-imagining since Sony Pictures has bought the VERONA script from Neil Widener and Gavin James. With VERONA as the famed town in which the star crossed lovers fell in love with each other and died, the movie re-imagines the love story, set in a world similar to Zack Snyder's stylized action epic 300. The movie will be produced by Joe Roth who is currently working on THE HUNTSMAN and ALICE IN WONDERLAND II! As you might remember the latest ROMEO AND JULIET movie was two years ago and it was dreadfully uninspired even though it had a stunning cast lead by Douglas Bouth, Damien Lewis, Hailee Steinfeld and Tom Wisdom!
Not so sure about the new Romeo and Juliet movie. Guess I just like the classic version best.
ReplyDeleteit could be interesting, though, given how the last one was unbearable
DeleteClearly the Knights Templar are hot right now!
ReplyDeletemost clearly
DeleteI'm not much into stories about the Crusades, but I'd be up for a re-imagining of Romeo and Juliet done 300 style. This. Is. VERONA! *kick* :D
ReplyDeleteshould be fun if they don't use Shaky Will's lines :)
DeleteIf they don't use Shaky Will's lines…what the hell? *kick*
Delete'tis too complex for my modest brain
DeleteSure... show off that package.
ReplyDeleteif you got it, flaunt it :)
DeleteHey, Mister your walnuts are loose. :)
Deletenuts on the loose! Lock the squirrels!
DeleteI honestly can't stop looking at that package that should be wrapped up and tied with a bow.
Deleteyou should check out the Romeo photo I've used with the post over at Twitter :)
Deletegee..men in tights..is sure a sight...I am a romantic so I like the Romeo and Juliet saga, but do I really want to see yet another version. I think we need new star crossed lovers..you know she traveled through time to find him the love of her life then something tragic happens..he dies in her arms and with his last breath he says he will find her again..haha..the endless circle of time..
DeletePS - I may go see it anyway;)
Deletehere's the link in case you didn't find it :)

DeleteTruedessa Dear... are you saying you'd like to see a reboot? ;)

DeleteNot a burning! Those are always too hot for me. Ashes.Ashes. They all fall down.

DeleteNot too keen on the R & J reimagined....once again?? But the other two sound interesting.
ReplyDeleteglad to hear it, Ray
DeleteWill be interested in the Knights Templar.
ReplyDeletebut the question is - will they be interested in you?
DeleteIs it just me or are Romeo's tights a little...ahem...TIGHT in the croch-torial region? :-)
ReplyDeletehe likes to do ballet :)
DeleteHow many times can we redo Romeo & Juliet? I didn't see the last one. I'll wait for reviews on this one before even thinking about seeing it.
ReplyDeleteI've seen the last one for my dearest Tom Widsom, but the film was simply a monotonous affair
DeleteI'm a little reserved on all counts. We shall see!
ReplyDeleteindeed
DeleteThat's a beautiful graphic for Romeo & Juliet. 300 style--I'll have to look it up.
ReplyDeleteit's a part of a fashion shoot from VOGUE, methinks, I've used some other pics from it before :) They guy is a ballet dancer methinks
DeleteI am actually excited to learn about Romeo and Juliet. That sounds like an awesome twist on a great classic!
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear it!
