International trailer for Pedro Almodovar's Broken Embraces. [imdb]
Let us spare a moment to consider the awesome potential of British actor Michael Fassbender (you may know him as blood-thirsty Stelios in 300, or that really skinny dude in Hunger, and he also has a lead role in Inglorious Basterds) playing a SUPERHERO. No, he's not a frontrunner, but Fassbender was apprently among those being considered for the Green Lantern role in WB's adaptation of the DC comic. Currently, the favourites for the role are Bradley Cooper, Ryan Reynolds, and Justin Timberlake, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Now, I'll readily admit that I don't know anything about the comic, but come on! Fassbender! Superhero! (THR) [imdb]
Swedish director Tomas Alfredson (Let The Right One In) has signed on to helm Working Title's adaptation of John le Carré's classic espionage novel, Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy. Set in the aftermath of the cold war, the thriller tells the tale of a spy-hunt within the highest echelons of the British Secret Intelligence Service. Peter Morgan (Frost/Nixon, The Queen) will write the adapted screenplay. Jeffrey Wells wonders if this adaptation is necessary; I would like to know if they're going to give it the Bourne treatment and update the cold war setting. The last great Le Carré adaptation was 2005's The Constant Gardener. (THR)
Trailer for the adaptation of Clive Barker's The Book of Blood, starring Robin Hood's Jonas Armstrong. [imdb]
Terry Kinney (Oz) joins CBS' procedural The Mentalist playing Lisbon's former boss, Agent Sam Bosco. (THR)
