I’m only interested in Daredevil if what happens there is a similar upgrade like Hulk was. Even so, I’m skeptical.
MI4? Okay……….whatever…….
Sam Worthington in anything has my attention of course.
Contagion’s cast has my brain ready to implode with happy thoughts.
I admit………I really want to see Cop Out. Too much talent to ignore.
I actually liked the Affleck driven Daredevil, so I’m qeustioning the remake. Though I understand why it has to be remade due to the parent company wanting to keep the rights.
I second Heather’s thoughts on Contagion. I’m giddy with excitment with casting news like that.
And Cruz has decided against the Von Trier film in favor of the Pirates movie. I understand Marshall is doing Pirates, who also did Nine which gave Cruz an Oscar nomination, but come on. I think its obvious that the Von Trier film would’ve been the much better choice…
Cruz would turn down a Von Trier film for Pirates 4. How is she consistently nominated for Oscars?
