The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed that Ken Watanabe will be Ra's Al Ghul! There were rumors about him joining and I hoped that he'd be Ra's. I hoped and hoped. Eeeeee!
From Christian Bale on Batman: "I think Batman is probably more aggresive than most everybody I've ever played, you know. I wanted to take it, because, firstly, when I heard that there was a consideration of doing more of the movies, I just felt like I hadn't been quite satisfied with what I'd seen in the other movies. Certainly in the last two. And it seemed as though there was actually a real character here, that it wasn't just a bland kind of superhero, one-dimensional. With him there really was an interesting character to be played. I loved the kind of fantastical notion of the superhero, but at the same time being able to bring a psychologically interesting element to that."
Focus Features has set a late-March start date for The Ice Harvest, a Harold Ramis-directed dark comedy to star John Cusack, Monica Bellucci and Billy Bob Thornton.
Return of the King has passed 1 Billion dollars worldwide, the second movie in history to accomplish this feat.
There are signs of life for a Firefly movie. They have added 'Serenity' to the Coming Soon section on the its official website, which is the working title for the film and the name of the crew's vessel. The studio has also already registered the Serenitymovie.com domain name. Production looks like May for a start.
Variety reports that The WB network has rounded out the roster on its sci-fi series The Robinsons: Lost in Space. Brad Johnson has joined as John Robinson, while Ryan Malgarini will play Will Robinson. The duo join cast members Jayne Brooke, Mike Erwin and Adrianne Palicki. Doug Petrie will write and executive produce, with John Woo attached to direct.
I'd recommend going and watching the new Punisher trailer. Much, much better than the first one. I can buy Thomas Jane as Frank Castle now. It looks like a brutal movie. I'll be there.
