From Jon Amiel the Director of The Core and Summersby, comes a film about Charles Darwin’s book “The Origin of Species.” Don’t start yawning yet! Let’s look into this a little bit further into it first. Charlies Darwin changed life as people knew it and it looks like they will be focusing more on the life of Darwin than on his book (which I think everyone knows about but almost no one has read). The human and emotional and side of the character has a chance at being much more interesting that just a look into Darwin making of the book. After all, he is one of history’s ultimate rebels.
The film stars Paul Bettany as Darwin and Jennifer Connelly as his dis-approving and yet loyal wife. The supporting cast includes Jeremy Northam and Toby Jones.

This looks really amazing. It’s got an dark and mysterious vibe mixed in with a modern post-apocalyptic animation. It has voices by Jennifer Connelly, John C. Reilly, Elijah Wood, Crispin Glover, Christopher Plummer, Martin Landau, and more. It has been executive produced by Wanted Director Timur Bekmambetov and produced by Sweeney Todd Director Tim Burton. I guess that’s there that vibe comes from.
It’s about puppets trying to save the world from… Well just watch the trailer below.

Last week, Keanu Reeves, Jennifer Connelly, Jon Hamm, and Director Scott Derrickson sat down and talked about the upcoming Sci-Fi remake of The Day the Earth Stood Still, in theaters this weekend. Scott Derrickson lead the way for the most part, taking on any of the possibly “sticky” questions. Jennifer Connelly was sweet and stunning, and was the only actor taking the day seriously. Jon Hamm seemed to know that his character had a smaller role in the film (should have been bigger) and wasn’t afraid to joke about it. As I have already stated in an earlier post, Keanu Reeves is my new favorite actor because of this press conference. He has some of the best answers you could possibly hope for.
Here is what they have to say about The Day the Earth Stood Still…

It’s the planet or mankind. Someones gotta go. AWESOME. For those of you living under a rock, this film is a remake of the 1951 classic. Although this one’s special effects will completely outdo the older films, it’s always worth watching a classic before the remake. The films stars Keanu Reeves, Jennifer Connelly, and Kathy Bates. I LOVE that they went with Kathy Bates for this role. It’s like they wanted real actors or something.

Woo. This is pretty cool. Yahoo! Movies has just released a new 5-min. extended international trailer for the sci-fi classic remake The Day The Earth Stood Still starring Keanu Reeves, Jennifer Connelly, and Kathy Bates. I have to say, I wasn’t too excited about this film. The 1951 film was a classic, and I think classic should be left alone. But this trailer looks pretty f-ing cool.
