Whoa! Time for Rumor of the day, this one takes the top because not only does it involve one of current Asian cinema superstars but it also has to do with the legacy of a certain late great icon. This info comes from Channelnewsasia, for now take it with grain of salt but they’re reporting that Stephen Chow, who brought us such comedy classics as Shaolin Soccer and Kung Fu Hustle and CJ7 is developing the movie TAI CHI which is said to be a remake of Bruce Lee’s classic The Way Of The Dragon. Not only that, Jack Black and Anne Hathaway might be attached to star. Whoa!… Read the rest of this entry »
I’m still overwhelmed by the Oscar nominations. It’s exciting isn’t it?! I’m an award show freak so this is like the highlight of my year and after the ceremony ends, it’ll go downhill from here on out. I kid, I kid. But since the nods pretty much take up most of the day, movie info runs fairly slow but Disney has unleashed these 2 new photos from TRON LEGACY and ALICE IN WONDERLAND. They’re hi-res, so you might wanna click on ‘em if you wanna take a closer look at either what’s on Jeff Bridges‘ back or the pasty but beautiful face of Anne Hathaway. By the way, Disney provided Collider with an interview with Hathaway that you might wanna check out OVER THERE. Don’t be late for tea party!
As we all know, SPIDER-MAN 4 is currently put on hold, script problem. Director Sam Raimi is not an easy man to please, not even after the story went through 3 different scribes. The fate of Peter Parker is now in the hands of scribe Alvin Sargent who penned the second and third installment. But remember the rumor about Malkovich possibly playing The Vulture and Anne Hathaway playing The Vulturess?! Well, there’s been a development so to speak… Read the rest of this entry »
Which villain will the friendly neighborhood go up against in Sam Raimi’s fourth installment? SPIDER-MAN 4 is going to start filming next year and yet the world has not heard one official bit about who they’ve chosen to be the next bad guy? Some say, Dylan Baker who plays Dr. Curt Connors is going to turn into his alter ego The Lizard, many female stars have been rumored to play Black Cat (Julia Stiles, Rachel McAdams, Romola Garai, Anne Hathaway), but movieline has heard of another one, how about John Malkovich as The Vulture?… Read the rest of this entry »
Ok, Welcome to today’s edition ‘who wants to be Black Cat in SPIDER-MAN 4!’ or some of us would say ‘o no, here we go again!’ We got Rachel McAdams, but she said no, and then we got Romola Garai but we haven’t heard from her since, and then there’s Julia Stiles, these rumors just keep on coming. So I’m not going to waste too much time on this. Nikki Finke said producers have approached Anne Hathaway to star in the fourth installment of your friendly neighborhood film. Hathaway can next be seen in the upcoming Tim Burton’s ALICE IN WONDERLAND in 3D, playing White Queen.
So do you think Hathaway would be perfect as The Black Cat?
Remember that scanned image we saw earlier today? Disney has released the new poster using part of that image, featuring Anne Hathaway as White Queen, Helen Bonham Carter as Red Queen, Matt Lucas as Tweedledum and Tweedledee and the Cheshire Cat who will be voiced by Stephen Fry. so expect to see the rest as other posters to arrive soon. In the meantime, Mad Hatter wants to share a treasure but he needs 7500 likes, so head over to the movie’s Facebook page and be the disloyal subjects of the Mad Hatter… Read the rest of this entry »

Ok, that title is arguable because as big of a movie star Hugh Jackman is, most fans would agree that he kinda blew it there with X-Men Origins: Wolverine, one of the weakest prequels ever, I can’t believe it was the movie that opened summer 2009. I’m still haunted by how cheesy the VFX looked.
The Tony award winner Jackman is going to return to his roots, the world he knows best, of singing and dancing because according to Variety, he has signed on to star as P.T. Barnum in the musical movie THE GREATEST SHOWMAN ON EARTH for 20th Century Fox, to be written by Jenny Bicks (Sex and The City)
The report says “Jackman will play the showman with a penchant for hoaxing a gullible public as he creates the three-ring circus that made him famous. The musical also focuses on his infatuation with singer Jenny Lind, the so-called Swedish Nightingale” the character which will be played Anne Hathaway.
If you watched the previous Oscar ceremony, you would remember the musical number those two actors performed to celebrate Best Picture nominees, I even hear people were surprised to know that Hatahaway got decent vocal skills.
Fox is trying to get British singer-songwriter Mika to write the music and lyrics for THE GREATEST SHOWMAN ON EARTH which w ill also have a contemporary musical score.
I’m not familiar with Mika’s music. Those of you who know her music better than I do might be able to say more on whether or not she’s the right person for this kind of gig. By the way, this project is not to be mistaken for that other SHOW ON EARTH.
I apologize for the lack of posts lately, I got caught up in the beautiful scenery of Maui, Hawaii, this place is heavenly. Speaking of heavenly, Empire has a new image of Anne Hathaway as the White Queen, talking to a dormouse, from the upcoming Tim Burton’s 3D sequel movie, ALICE IN WONDERLAND
The story finds Alice, 17, attending a party at a Victorian estate only to find she is about to be proposed to in front of hundreds of snooty society types. Off she runs, following a white rabbit, into a hole and ending up in Wonderland, a place she visited 10 years ago but she doesn’t have any recollection about it. The rabbit believes he has found the right Alice.
ALICE IN WONDERLAND 3D opens March 5th, 2010
