Stuff.
Gosh, it's been a long time since I've done one of these. Let's see if I can condense the main news from the last few weeks into one post:
The main trio in The Hunger Games has been cast, must to the consternation and disappointment of Racebending-supporters. Jennifer Lawrence (Winter's Bone), Josh Hutcherson (The Kids are All Right) and Liam Hemsworth (The Last Song) will play Katniss, Peeta and Gael respectively.
Hailee Steinfeld, meanwhile, is in talks for her first film after her Oscar-nominated role in True Grit. She will play the female lead in Italian director Carlo Carlie's Romeo and Juliet. Julian Fellowes (Gosford Park) wrote the script. (THR)
If you haven't yet seen the 15 minute "exclusive" sneekpeek of HBO's Game of Thrones: run, don't walk.
Joe Wright's next film will probably be another literary classic: Leo Tolstoy's Anna Karenina, adapted by Tom Stoppard. Already attached are Keira Knightley in the title role, Jude Law as Karenin, Aaron Johnson as Bronsky, as well as Kelly Macdonald and Benedict Cumberbatch. James McAvoy and Saoirse Ronan are also being eyed for unknown parts. (The Playlist)
This one's for Dae: Carrie-Ann Moss and Malcolm McDowell join Sean Bean, Radha Mitchell and Deborah Kara Unger in the videogame movie sequel, Silent Hill: Revelations. (THR)
7 clips from Robert Redford's The Conspirator, starring Robin Wright as Mary Surratt, the lone female charged as a co-conspirator in the assassination trial of Abraham Lincoln, and James McAvoy as the reluctant lawyer in charge of defending her.
Apple has the trailer for Warrior, the Tom Hardy/Nick Nolte/Joel Edgerton mixed martial arts movie.
Teaser trailer for Anomymous, which stars Rhys Ifans as Edward de Vere, Earl of Oxford (in lots of eyeliner), Vanessa Redgrave as a rather dour-looking Queen Elizabeth I, David Thewlis as William Cecil, Xavier Samuels as Henry Wriothesley, and Jamie Campbell Bower as the younger version of Ifans' character. The film is a historical thriller based around the controversy surrounding the authorship of William Shakespeare's plays and poetry.
