Scarlett Johansson Gives Good Stare In Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s Directorial Debut

Most first-time filmmakers don’t have a posse of A-listers filling roles in their films. But then again, most first-time directors aren’t Joseph Gordon-Levitt . The charming actor is taking his turn behind the camera (though he’s also in front) with Don Jon’s Addiction , which will have its debut at the Sundance Film Festival in the event’s Premieres section in January. Sundance didn’t readily have an image from Don Jon’s Addiction available when they rolled out their 2013 lineup late last week and earlier this week, but this one turned up with a demure looking Scarlett Johansson appearing to size-up Josheph Gordon-Levitt (or maybe the other way around) in what appears to be a club? video bar? new age art installation? Also starring Julianne Moore , Sundance did not give too much detail about the film but it will likely be a hot title to watch… One thing is for sure, Gordon-Levitt is having a good run after a year of The Dark Knight Rises (and all the ensuing Batman/Robin Hood rumors), Looper and Lincoln . The minimal Sundance Film Festival description follows: In Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s charming directorial debut, a selfish modern-day Don Juan attempts to change his ways. Cast: Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Scarlett Johansson, Julianne Moore, Tony Danza, Glenne Headly, Rob Brown.

WATCH: Japanese ‘Iron Man 3’ Trailer Shows Stark Residence, Gwyneth Paltrow Getting Blowed Up Real Good

This Japanese Iron Man 3 trailer has surfaced, and though it doesn’t offer much in the way of new footage, you do get an added glimpse of Pepper Potts ( Gwyneth Paltrow ) getting blown back by the blast of the helicopter attack on Tony Stark’s U.S.S. Enterprise-like home. Although Movies.com points out that that Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige  recently went on record saying  Iron Man 3  isn’t so much a “serious” film as a serious exploration of Tony Stark’s character, I still think that based upon this new image and the shot of a tortured-looking Pepper in the last trailer,  the arc of Paltrow’s character is going to be crucial to the plot . There’s also that moment in the last trailer where Stark ( Robert Downey Jr .) says: “I hope I can protect the one thing I can’t live without.”  Even though his use of the word “thing” is unfortunate, you know that’s a speech about Pepper. Oh, and one last non-Pepper point:  Unless Marvel is trying to make Ben Kingsley’s indeterminately international   Mandarin character intentionally cheesy, it needs to lose that “Heroes–there is no such thing” line from future promotional clips. That’s dialogue more befitting of Austin Powers than Iron Man.  More on Iron Man 3:  ‘Iron Man 3′ Teaser-palooza!
