Default The Movie News Thread

I don't think anyone here closely follows Hollywood (correct me if I'm wrong) so I thought this would be a nice place to just dump random news that others may find interesting such as people being cast for movies, new movies being made and all that jazz.

This doesn't include stuff like trailers and reviews though, can make a separate thread for that.

Some tidbits,

http://www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=64521
Angela Basset joins the Green Lantern movie as Amanda Waller. For those who don't know who Ms. Waller is, she is the head of the Suicide Squad and currently Checkmate, I'm almost certain that does nothing to help most people.

http://www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=64515
Paul W.S Anderson to direct a 3D Buck Rogers. I believe Mr. Anderson was responsible for the Resident Evil movies so make of that what you will.

http://www.superherohype.com/news.php?id=9194
A 3D CGI Popeye film, how many people will see a Popeye movie?

http://www.superherohype.com/news/ca...ws.php?id=9193
Chris Evans will get behind the shield and become the next Iron Man

There you go, for now.

Looks like Will Smith has signed on to do 2 ID sequels.

Quote:
Will Smith has apparently signed up to star in not one but two sequels to Independence Day.

The 1996 alien invasion movie was a box office smash and producers/writers Dean Devlin and Roland Emmerich, who also directed, reportedly wrote a follow up some time ago, but decided they weren't ready to revisit the story.

Now IESB.net is reporting that Will has signed up to star in two sequels and that Fox is planning to film the movies back-to-back, with shooting due to start as early as 2011.

The original Independence Day - about aliens attacking the world, only to be saved by the unlikely team of a maverick airforce pilot, a wacky scientist and the President - also starred Bill Pullman and Jeff Goldblum.

It took a total of 817,400,891 dollars at the worldwide box office

Nice...though since the Matrix I'm wary of back to back sequels.

WTF?! 2 sequels to a 15 year old blockbuster? I hate this idea.

The Green Lantern suit is going to be entirely CGI. During filming Reynolds is wearing a grey suit with tracking led lights.

Looks like production on Bond 23 is halted until this whole situation works itself out.
