TOM HIDDLESTON TO LEAD
'BRAVEHEART' SEQUEL 'LION RAMPANT' WITH EMMA STONE?
Sadly he wasn't destined to be the new
BEN HUR after all (the role in the end went to
Jack Huston), but our dearest, most beloved and sweetest
Tom Hiddleston will show his
BRAVEHEART in the sequel to the Mel Gibson classic epic movie! As 'Daily Mail' reports, according to emails exposed by WikiLeaks, Hiddlestud will take on the role of Scotland's warrior king Robert the Bruce in the sequel
LION RAMPANT which is to be directed by
David Mackenzie (PERFECT SENSE, YOUNG ADAM) and will be shot in Scotland with
Jack O'Connell and
Emma Stone also wanted for some of the roles. British movie company Working Title (most famous for FOUR WEDDING AND A FUNERAL) will produce the film about Robert the Bruce, who lead the war against the English fighting for Scottish Independence.
'LEWIS AND CLARK' EPIC SERIES
MATTHIAS SCHOENAERTS AND CASSEY AFFLECK LEAD THE CAST
Speaking of all things epic, another historical TV series that is coming to us in the future is HBO's mini series
LEWIS AND CLARK which, based on
Stephen E. Ambrose's historical book 'Undaunted Courage', tells the story of America’s first contact with the land and native tribes of the country west of the Mississippi River. It follows the epic journey of the Corps of Discovery and its captains, Meriwether Lewis (
Cassey Affleck) and William Clark (
Matthias Schoenaerts), who traverse uncharted territory on a mission to deliver President Jefferson’s

message of sovereignty as they search for his fabled all-water route to the Pacific.
AN ALL MALE CAST!
New actors to join Matthias Schoenaerts and Casey Affleck in
LEWIS AND CLARK as the members of their
army include
Josh Stewart (as Ruben Field, a Kentucky woodsman who helps
Lewis and Clark in every aspect of their journey),
Parker Croft (as the
youngest and greenest member of the expedition.),
Brendan Fletcher,
James
Cutler, Rob Aramayo, Devin Harjes, Tim Plester, Tyson Ritter, and
David Wilmot!
YAY!!! I hadn't heard this news. Our Tom will make a GREAT Robert the Bruce!
ReplyDeleteit's extremely fresh as all our news are :)
DeleteDay of hunks! I'll have to research Robert the Bruce. Hope you're enjoying your day, Dezz.
ReplyDeleteAlso - love the Reign soundtrack you're displaying with Karmina!
Deleteisn't a gorgeous song? I've been listening to it on repeat for weeks :)
DeleteOh, I'm on board with Hiddles in a kilt. :)
ReplyDeleteand without it too!
DeleteI hope the Braveheart sequel isn't as long as the first. I liked it, but have to watch long movies in sections as I just don't have the patience for sitting still very long anymore.
ReplyDeleteI haven't watched the first one... unlike others, my psychic powers always told me Mel is crazy.... which goes for Jessica Lange too :)
DeleteMel is definitely crazy, but it really was a good movie!
DeleteI shall take your word on it :)
DeleteA sequel to Braveheart? Interesting.
ReplyDeletehighly
DeleteA Braveheart sequel? I must tell my mom immediately. She may actually faint.
ReplyDeleteespecially with Hiddles in the mix....
