One of the actors who is definitely having a breakthrough year (even though he's 40+) is super talented
Norman Reedus. Beside winning the spotlight in
Lady Gaga's video for her JUDAS
mega hit, and starring in AMC hit show
THE WALKING DEAD, in which he is portraying probably the most popular character, he is now getting new movie roles too. According to "Variety" he will appear next to
Matt Dillon in
SUNLIGHT JR. He will play
Naomi Watt's ex boyfriend in the story which revolves around a Florida couple dealing with an unexpected pregnancy while holding minimum wage jobs. As you remember you've seen Norman in THE BOONDOCK SAINTS too, and he is scheduled to star in
NIGHT OF THE TEMPLAR as well, a film about a medieval knight who resurrects to fulfill his vow and bestow a blood-thirst vengeance upon the kindred spirits of those who betrayed him long ago.
HOLLYWOOD SPY HEADLINES
Now, I really don't like
Clint Eastwood's films, they are deeply unappealing to me, but I do love
Amy Adams and according to "MovieWeb" she has just been offered the lead role in
TROUBLE WITH THE CURVE, a drama in which the story centers on Eastwood's character, a baseball scout who is beginning to lose his sight. He brings his daughter (Amy Adams) along on a scouting trip to Atlanta, so he can take a look at a young prospect.
And when it comes to THE HUNGER GAMES which some of you like a lot, the producers want the 2nd part in the saga
CATCHING FIRE to be written by
Simon Beaufoy the screenwriter of famous THE SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE.
Two of the classics which are getting remakes are
WOODY WOODPECKER, which
Universal wants to turn into an animated film, and
THE MUNSTERS, the famous 60's series about a weird family of monsters which will now get a new pilot on NBC thanks to PUSHING DAISIES creator
Bryan Fuller.
Continuing the week of really great trailers, I have for you today the second trailer for the long awaited drama
THE VOW which many of my ladies
are smitten by. Hitting cinemas next February with quite and interesting cast including
Channing Tatum, Rachel McAdams
, Scott Speedman, Sam Neill and
Jessica Lange, the film is based on a true story about a young woman who loses all recent memory in a car accident and struggles to rebuild her identity while her husband tries to win her heart for the second time. The problem is that her ex boyfriend also appears trying to use her lack of memory and her sudden loss of love for her new husband, to win her over again. As you can see in the trailer it seems Channing is really giving his best in this one, while McAdams is sporting some really nasty hairdos in the film :)
