Edward Norton Reviews, Interviews & More
To say that The Bourne Legacy is loosely based on Eric Van Lustbander's novel or even set in the same universe that Robert Ludlum created is a giant overstatement. Screenwriters (and director) Tony and Dan Gilroy have taken Ludlum's Bourne series and expanded into something wholly new. That's what they set out to do, and...
The Bourne series has tapped into new territory with The Bourne Legacy. Matt Damon is out and Jeremy Renner is in as Aaron Cross. It turns out there was never just one. ScreenCrave recently spoke to the new cast, which includes Renner, Rachel Weisz and Edward Norton. They talked about the franchise's future, shooting action scenes and...
The Bourne Legacy hits theaters August 10, and we're curious to see how it will play. Not only because it's a sequel that talks a lot about Jason Bourne without actually featuring Matt Damon, but also because director Tony Gilroy is taking up the helm from Paul Greengrass, whose action sensibilities meant "lots of shakey cam." From this clip we have a better idea...
Per his contract that apparently states he must have a role in every ongoing action franchise in existence (look for him to appear next as James Bond’s little brother Johnny Bond in A Quirkdom of Siblings), Jeremy Renner is the new face of the Bourne franchise. After having already taken remarkably bland supporting roles in Thor, The Avengers,...
Jeremy Renner stars in the spin-off/reboot of the Bourne franchise The Bourne Legacy, and now we're getting a look at how director Tony Gilroy is handling the reset button in the film's first trailer. With that title it means that Matt Damon's Jason Bourne is going to hover over the film - though it's hard to say for how long of the running time. Check out the...
At this point, it's easy to know what to expect from Wes Anderson. Great Performers, a distinct visual style, and maybe just maybe some twee. In Moonrise Kingdom there's Bill Murray, Bruce Willis, Edward Norton, Frances McDormand, Tilda Swinton and Jason Schwartzman in a story about two star-crossed child lovers who escape from a summer camp, which leads to a full...
Edward Norton's had a rocky path in Hollywood, partly by his own making. Known for tinkering with scripts, he's done films out of contractual obligation, and never courted an easy path. And yet Hollywood keeps coming back, perhaps because he is rather talented. Perhaps he's finally made peace with working within the industry, because he's the leading contender for the role of the villain in...
Wes Anderson is busy wrangling together the cast for his next movie entitled Moon Rise Kingdom. In typical Anderson fashion, it will feature the usual suspects such as Bill Murray, and a few new faces. According to Deadline, several big name actors are circling the project including Edward Norton, Tilda Swinton, Frances McDormand, and Bruce Willis, yes we said Bruce...
Stone hits theaters with a thump. This is a film packed to the brim with ideas and a lot of potential. The fact that you have Robert De Niro and Edward Norton facing off in some pretty intense scenes definitely helps the film as a whole. Sadly it lacks any grand significance in the end that you'll be craving after going through such an intense experience -- but then...
John Curran, the writer of The Killer Inside Me, and the director of The Painted Veil and We Don't Live Here Anymore, bring us yet another tricky film to contemplate, Stone. The project was written by Angus McLachlan and directed by himself. We first saw a trailer for this film back in September '09 (which we had to take down) and as of this...
Robert De Niro and Edward Norton reunite for the indie drama Stone, directed by John Curran. The Stone trailer debut today, and from the looks of it, the movie seems more like the story of a love-triangle with a crime twist. Movies with love-triangles are overrated, and sadly, it's always the woman who's called a whore, but when two men like De Niro and...
Early this morning we reported on the horrendous news that Edward Norton is no longer a part of the Marvel universe. The actor who took over the role of Bruce Banner aka The Hulk in 2008 was rumored to appear in the Marvel team up movie The Avengers in 2012 along with Robert Downey Jr as Iron Man, Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, Chris Hemsworth as Thor, Chris Evans...
Update: Edward Norton has released an official statement regarding his recasting.
One of the biggest questions hovering over Marvel's Avengers movie (besides Chris Evans ability to play a believable leader) was whether or not Edward Norton would return to play Bruce Banner aka The Hulk. According to several reports this weekend the character will...
A while ago we brought you some info regarding Tim Blake Nelson's film, Leaves of Grass. It stars Edward Norton as twin brothers with the usual format of one being good and the other being bad. It's not so much a story about good verses evil as it is straight-laced verses a free spirit. A trailer was recently released for the film and we get to see Norton get crazy...
With someone as talented and respected as Edward Norton, I feel guilty that his name only brings one thing to mind, the Hulk. Ever since his appearance in last year's The Incredible Hulk, the actor has been associated with the group of Marvel superheros known as The Avengers. This includes Iron Man, Thor,...
The majority of the general public has seen the first Iron Man and The Incredible Hulk, and are familiar with the upcoming Avengers collaboration that Marvel is planning. When both films were released in the summer of 2008, Robert Downey, Jr.'s Tony Stark popped up in the last act of the Hulk. It looked as...
Earlier this year we told you about the indie drama Stone, that reunites Robert De Niro and Edward Norton. It seems like just yesterday we were reporting on their casting, and now a trailer has already been released. Stone is directed by John Curran, and centers on a correctional officer who's seduced by the wife of a convicted arsonist...
Not only is Edward Norton a talented actor but he's an overall nice guy. The Oscar nominated actor has recently taken on a huge responsibility for a very good cause. Norton is in the midst of training for the New York Marathon, as a means to raise money for conservation. The actor has been a longtime environmental and social activist and this is one of many ways of him promoting funds for...
It's an Incredible Hulk reunion of sorts for actors Tim Blake Nelson and Edward Norton. The two thespians star in the film, Leaves of Grass, which is directed, written, and produced by Nelson himself. Over at /Film, they've gotten a hold of a few production stills from the film as well as it's official...
Finally, someone is acknowledging the elephant in the room regarding the upcoming Marvel movie, The Avengers. Will Edward Norton reprise the role of Bruce Banner/The Hulk in the film? Over at IESB, they've got the latest straight from the horses mouth. Following this year's Comic Con there's been nothing but Marvel talk regarding Iron Man 2,...
