GLEN POWELL TO LEAD
BUTCH CASSIDY & SUNDANCE KID SERIES WITH REGE JEAN PAGE
Well, I'm not sure when did Butch become black, but it seems Amazon does not care, and our sweet hunk Glen Powell will lead BUTCH CASSIDY AND THE SUNDANCE KID western TV series together with Rege Jean Page who will be Butch. Ordered by Amazon for full series, it will be a classic western about outlaws in an alternate America. You probably remember the classic movie from 1969 starring Paul Newman as Butch and Robert Redford as Sundance.
CATHERINE THE GREAT
NEW SEASON TWO PHOTOS
And your epic treat for today are new photos from the second season of Russian historical series CATHERINE THE GREAT (Velikaya - not to be confused with their rival series CATHERINE II in which the tzarina was played by Marina Aleksandrova and which already had two seasons). Kinopoisk was the first to show new images with Elizabeth Boyarskaya in the role of older Catherine II from the sequel to the series "Catherine the Great". The first part, where Julia Snigir
played the Empress, was released in 2015. Now the action takes place in
1763, the first year after the coronation of Catherine. The series
also stars Anton Khabarov (Grigory Orlov), Alexei Morozov (Gregory Potemkin), Pavel Vorozhtsov (Nikita Panin), Alexey Filimonov (Lev Naryshkin), Igor Gordin (Alexey Bestuzhev), Sofia Sinitsyna (Ekaterina Dashkova) and Philip Ershov (future Emperor Paul). Filming
is currently taking place in palaces, parks and mansions of St.
Petersburg and Leningrad region, as well as on the ship "Poltava". The
project involves more than 560 historical costumes, which were sewn and
rented in Spain and the Czech Republic. Mars Media is working on the 12-episode second season ordered by Russia's Channel One.
Catherine the great looks really perfect with their (560) costumes.
ReplyDeleteI imagine her own costumes will be done separately, especially in Russia.
DeleteOh my goodness. The Butch Cassidy casting is ridiculous. Everyone mad about a black mermaid and black elves, fictional characters, but to blatantly change a real life person's color to fit some kind of updated woke narrative is mind boggling that that isn't what is being hollered about the loudest. I'm just ready to pack it in and move to Mars at this point.
ReplyDeleteFictional characters but still originally different, Mermaid is Danish mythology, so white defo not African, and elves are white in Tolkien in whose world the races specifically never mix. And this with Butch is just ridiculous, I told you before they will cast Whoopie Goldberg to play me and ya all laughed at me.
DeleteI've gotten so much flack from complaining about little redhaired girls not being represented in the new Little Mermaid, that I'll abstain from commenting about the new Butch.But Paul Newman will always be Butch Cassidy for me with his offensive blue eyes. I'm watching Velikaya's first season all over again. Can't wait for a second part.
ReplyDeleteHow can you be against a black girl playing a whiteskinned redhaired creature from Danish not African legends and mythology???? Da scandal!!! Da racismus! LOL I have no more energy to fight it either as the opposition has no brains to understand the simplest of concepts and is only capable of screaming racism, fascism!
DeleteAnd the biggest problem - this Rene Jean guy ain't even talented, bland and bleh meh.
DeleteYes Yes, I am now branded a bona fide racist (add Jew as a last name). I fear that is my main peeve. Have no problem with a thousand Denzel or Samuel L or Will Smith's clones, but the new crop of dark skined thespians are bad actors anbd plain not to call fugly
DeleteYes, just look at the godawful Lashana and Boyega in Woman King, and even Viola is overrated as hell. Boyega said a few days ago he does not and will not date white women. And nobody was allowed to call him a vile racist. Imagine if Chris Pratt said he would not date a black woman. Not that any white woman is sorry for not being on Boyegas list, naturally.
DeleteI saw The Warrior Woman” trailer and Viola was evidently hamming up her role. An embarrassment. Talking about “not white girls allowed”. There is this guy who played Jackson in “Grey’s Anatomy” Jesse Williams, very cute. He’s been a militant and vociferous against white people (although his mom is white) and about interracial couples. And then Lo and Behold, he dumped his black wife in 2017 and ran after a white hick. He’s only been forgiven now because he’s dating an Afro-American. They are all hypocrites, hanging on to their double standards.
DeleteI know Jesse, we all saw his massive dick in that play last spring LOL Seems that is the only thing he has got going on for him LOL Obviously no such massiveness in the brain department.
DeleteFirst of all, I meant “chick” not the other word. I would never disrespect rural people who struggle so much and lead wholesome lives.
DeleteNot having the fortune of seeing Jesse’s jewels I still say he’s stunning. Those eyes! But one of his stupid claims is that being endowed with Caucasian looks, “White Man” has given him better roles than to other Afro actors. Really? because Denzel, exquisite but no Caucasian and ten times the actor Jesse Williams is, has been given great roles by “White Man” and so have Samuel L, Morgan, and Will Smith before he went around slapping people. That is because they are f……g talented
How on Earth did you manage not to see it, it was plastered all over the net uncensored after that audience member took a secret photo of Jesse's member LOL It is so big I thought he was wearing a prop, but it turns out it really is his pride and joy.
DeleteCannot agree with you that Denzel, Samuel or Morgan are talented, more like overrated. The same goes for Ojelowo or what is his name. Will is talented in his comedic genre, but obnoxious.
Frankly, I'm glad I missed such beauty. Size matters little, but being an ass like this Jesse Williams who cares if he has a big c--k
DeleteWell it is very much pleasing for the eye LOL
DeleteI do remember the classic Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid movie. I liked it so I might like this.
ReplyDeleteHope there will be no werewolves in it, though.
DeleteOk, I got one for ya! Soooo James Franco was cast as Fidel Castro and the USA woke population had a FIT that a white person was cast a latino. Well, 1. Many Cubans identify as caucasion so I'm sure they didn't appreciate the outrage. 2. Why can't white people be cast in minority roles since the opposite happens all the time?? They need to make up their minds! 3. James Franco looks just like Fidel Castro in the pictures so I see why they chose him. End rant!
ReplyDeleteFranco is the spitting image of young Castro, so it is perfectly logical for him to play him, but it is not logical for a Cuban girl to play Marylin Monroe especially not with a Latino accent.
DeleteDouble standards at it's finest.. yet something that is so clear and logical seems to not make it's way into the brains of the woke population.
DeleteThe same as lil Mermaid, how difficult it is to comprehend that it is a Danish myth and legend with a white, redhaired lass, not an African myth with a black girl.
