SF SATURDAY: ROSA SALAZAR IS 'BATTLE ANGEL ALITA'! 'ANDRON' SF TRAILER WITH ALEC BALDWIN, DANNY GLOVER. 'MAN FROM EARTH HOLOCENE' SEQUEL CASTS STERLING KNIGHT, VANESSA WILLIAMS

'MAN FROM EARTH: HOLOCENE'
SEQUEL CASTS STERLING KNIGHT AND VANESSA WILLIAMS
Well, if you love sf as we do, naturally, you will be happy to hear that one of the biggest sf classics THE MAN FROM EARTH is getting a sequel with THE MAN FROM THE EARTH: HOLOCENE with Vanessa Williams, Sterling Knight, Carlos Knight, and Brittany Curran joining the original star David Lee Smith!
As 'Deadline' writes, the original film followed John Oldman (Smith), a man who has lived for millennia, always moving on after ten years to hide his secret. The story was told over the course of an intense evening conversation between Oldman and his acquaintances. HOLOCENE in the sequel title describes the historical period stretching from the end of the most recent ice age to the current day.

'BATTLE ANGEL ALITA'
ROSA SALAZAR TO LEAD
In other sf news (beside the happy info that WARCRAFT has started breaking records in the cinemas around the world this weekend), it has been confirmed that MAZE RUNNER actress Rosa Salazar will lead the movie adaptation of famous BATTLE ANGEL ALITA to be helmed by Robert Rodriguez. Produced by James Cameron who was supposed to direct it but he has too many AVATARS to do, it has the story set in the 26th century, following an amnesiac female cyborg rescued from a scrapyard and rebuilt. Possessing no memories of her life before being rebuilt but retaining an impressive set of fighting skills, she becomes a bounty hunter while seeking to discover more about her past.
