Choo-Choo! Here Comes a Killer Adaptation of Anna Karenina!

Posted on September 9, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Lionsgate just announced that Joe Wright, the director of Pride & Prejudice and Atonement , will helm a new adaptation of Leo Tolstoy’s Anna Karenina written by Tom Stoppard (who wrote the Oscar-winning screenplay of Shakespeare in Love , as well as countless revered plays). I think we’re owed an oversize Tolstoy treat in 2011, don’t you? We can’t subsist on The Last Station for much longer. And wait until you hear who’s set to star.

This weekend, Helen Mirren, at the age of 65, will become the ninth oldest host in the history of Saturday Night Live . And while the young and spry are terrific for a variety of reasons, let’s not forget that some of the greatest moments in SNL history have come from some of its more seasoned hosts — including one 80-year-old unknown who resulted from a write-in campaign. (Yes, this happened.)

Tom Hardy and Joel Edgerton Get Into The Octagon for Warrior

Posted on April 8, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Would you have loved The Fighter more if Micky Ward and Dicky Eklund fought each other at the end, and if Paramount dropped the “The” in the film’s title? Good news, then! The trailer for Warrior has arrived to make those improvements — and it even ignores the Masshole accents. (Which may or may not be an improvement from where you’re sitting.)

Hailee Steinfeld In Talks for Romeo and Juliet

Posted on April 8, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Gone are the days when Hailee Steinfeld had to define ridiculous words like “blingatude” in Kmart commercials. The Oscar nominee is in talks to play the lead in a new adaptation of Romeo and Juliet from Gosford Park screenwriter Julian Fellowes. The movie, budgeted at $15 million, will shoot in Italy later this year. Steinfeld will also revisit the classics in a “revisionist” Sleeping Beauty from screenwriter Linsday Devlin. [ THR ]
