It’s official! Charlize Theron and British actor Tom Hardy are both in negotiations to star in Mad Max 4 aka Fury Road. Just last week we reported on speculation that the two actors were taking on the leads in the long awaited sequel and according to THR, it’s been confirmed.
Could this be a casting development for the upcoming Mad Max sequel/reboot? There have been rumors floating around regarding the fourth installment of the action franchise that made Mel Gibson a star for years. Director George Miller has been more than vocal about his desire to produce another film. Now we’re hearing rumors via EOnline that Oscar winner Charlize Theron and Tom Hardy may have been cast as the leads in the new film.
One Oscar winner has been swapped out for another, according Reuters. Charlize Theron was set to star opposite Sam Worthington in the action thriller, The Tourist but that is no longer the case. The actress has unexpectedly dropped out of the film, and sources are claiming that Angelina Jolie will step in as her replacement.
Shortly after two writers were hired to pen the script for Hancock 2, director Peter Berg has confirmed the film’s main cast. Over at MTV, they recently spoke to Berg about the sequel and whether or not all the original stars would make a return. Will Smith’s appearance is a given, and at this point so is Charlize Theron’s, so Jason Bateman can’t be too far behind can he?
Today our site has been overflowing with posters from various upcoming films. Our latest batch comes from the John Hillcoat drama, The Road. Earlier we brought you five clips from the film that stars Viggo Mortenson, Charlize Theron, Guy Pearce, and Kodi Smit-McPhee. Since then, not one but two theatrical posters have been released for the movie, and they’re even grittier than I imagined.
Do we need a follow up to last year’s Hancock? I mean really? Can’t we all agree that it was an OK movie, and move on? According to the SciFi Wire, the film’s director Peter Berg has more story to tell, and he’s spilling the beans on Hancock 2. If you haven’t seen the film already, the rest of this post is filled with potential spoilers. More on the sequel below.
Who said Sam Worthington was just an action star? The Terminator Salvation actor has just signed on to star in a slick spy thriller. I’ll admit, it may not be all smooth sailing, but it’s not as epic as his previous work. According to THR, the actor will star alongside Oscar winner Charlize Theron in the remake of the 2005 French film The Tourist. The film will be directed by Bharat Nalluri.
The Academy Award winning actress will wear many hats with her upcoming project entitled, Florence of Arabia. According to Latino Review, Charlize Theron will produce, develop, and star in the film, which is based off of the Christopher Buckley novel of the same name. Theron owns the screen rights to the book and will produce the film via her company Denver and Delilah Films.
Yesterday we posted some of the highlights from one of the first early review for The Road, starring Charlize Theron, Viggo Mortensen, Guy Pearce, and Robert Duvall and today we get the trailer.
It’s amazing. In fact it’s so amazing I’m going to just shut up and let you watch it and then talk about it after…
