JAMIE DORNAN JOINS
'ROBIN HOOD: ORIGINS'
The greatest of news, people! One of our most beloved Irish hunks Jamie Dornan is in talks to star in ROBIN HOOD: ORIGINS according to 'The Hollywood Reporter'! The not so great news: he won't be playing the hood wearing Robin even though he is kinda the biggest star in the cast. If he accepts the role in the film in which young Tarton Egerton is to play Robin, Dornan would play Will Scarlett!
In Lionsgate's version of the Robin Hood legend, to be directed by
Otto Bathurst, Jamie Foxx will play Little John and Eve Hewson will
portray Maid Marian! Jamie Dornan would play Will Scarlett, one of
Robin's brave Merry Men who is the hot headed wearer of fine clothes and
the best swordsman of the bunch. In this version of the legend, which
starts shooting in Hungary in January, he is Marian’s husband, who will
be none too happy when he learns that she loves the outlaw.
'THE WHOLE TRUTH' TRAILER
STARRING KEANU REEVES
Two trailers for you today, the first one for a new Keanu Reeves drama movie THE WHOLE TRUTH which is out next month. Defense attorney Richard Ramsay (Keanu Reeves) takes on a personal case when he swears to his widowed friend, Loretta Lassiter (Renée Zellweger), that he will keep her son Mike (Gabriel Basso) out of prison. Charged with murdering his father, Mike initially confesses to the crime. But as the trial proceeds, chilling evidence about the kind of man that Boone Lassiter (Jim Belushi) really was comes to light.
While Ramsay uses the evidence to get his client acquitted, his new colleague Janelle (Gugu Mbatha Raw) tries to dig deeper. And he begins to realize that the whole truth is something she alone can uncover.
'PASSENGERS' SF TRAILER
SENDS CHRIS PRATT AND JENNIFER LAWRENCE INTO SPACE
The first trailer has also finally been released for sf adventure PASSENGERS with Chris Pratt and Jennifer Lawrence which takes place on a space ship transporting thousands of people to a distant colony planet in suspended animation. The trip takes a deadly turn when Jim and Aurora’s (Pratt and Lawrence) hibernation pods awaken them 90 years before anyone else. As Jim and Aurora look into the malfunction, they fall deeply in love while the ship starts falling apart and they have to try and save the other passengers.The movie's launch is set a few days before Christmas this December. It is interesting that the above mentioned Keanu was the original star of this movie.
I love a good legal whodunnit and it will be nice to see Keanu Reeves in a non-action flick for a change.
ReplyDeleteyou reckon Keanu and Renee have killed Belushi together because they have a secret affair? :)
DeleteWhat!? How could Jamie NOT be Robin Hood. He seems like the perfect fit!
ReplyDeletethat was my thought as well
DeleteHoly hell. Passengers. It sounds so up my alley, I'm pretty sure my car is parked over it. I'm not sure how I never heard of it, but you officially gave me a movie to check out.
ReplyDeletewe followed the production for many years now, back from when it was supposed to star Keanu and than it switched a number of different stars :)
DeletePassengers sounds good! Will have to keep my eye out nearer the time.
ReplyDeletewhen da winter comes... and it is coming indeed
DeleteI'm a bit wary since Jamie is not playing Robin Hood. Maybe there might be a quality issue he doesn't want to get in front of? Guess we'll find out once the movie is released. The Whole Truth has a great trailer but can it fit into my movie budget? Passengers trailer was better than I expected. Yet I have learned that trailers can be deceiving. Still I don't mind an action romance sci-fi in space. Just hoping it's not a bad one.
ReplyDeleteIt is very true that trailers can be starkly deceiving!
DeleteThe Whole Truth had better be good.
ReplyDeletemeaning what? What would count for good in that one? I reckon Keanu and Renee are shagging and they framed her son...
DeleteMeaning don't waste my money.
Deletein other news, Blue, where can we get ourselves that splendid blue jacket Jamie is wearing so dashingly?
