Now you know how much I love me animals and Australian actors, and here's both of them in one film: according to "FirstShowing" Nicole Kidman could take the lead role in OUR WILD LIFE, a drama that focuses on Dame Daphne Sheldrick, a Kenyan
wildlife conservationist renowned for her work with elephants. In addition to protecting elephants from poaching and becoming innocent victims in war, she also perfected a milk formula for baby elephants and rhinos, hand-reared more than 70 elephants and helped rescue other animals stolen from Botswana for brutal training in South Africa. Her husband is also an important part of her life as he was the founder and warden of Kenya's giant Tsavo National Park. Phillip Noyce (SALT) will direct the film.
You know how much I love me some good historical epics, and here's another new treat for us coming out in 2012. Brendan Fraser will star in FOUR KINGS, which will depict the period of the Seven Years' War or the French Indian War from the eighteenth century which left North American continent divided. The shooting of the film should start this summer in Canada and Fraser will play Colonel Lord Francis Nicholson, a vastly wealthy Brit who self-financed the war in the hope of creating a utopian society in today's Canada.
AMC, the channel which brought us last year's biggest TV smash hit THE WALKING DEAD is ready to surprise us this year with their new epic series HELL ON WHEELS which just got its first trailer.
To be broadcast later this year it tells the epic story of post-Civil War America, focusing on a Confederate soldier (Anson Mount) who sets out to exact revenge on the Union soldiers who have killed his wife. His journey takes him west to Hell on Wheels, a dangerous, raucous, lawless melting pot of a town that travels with and services the construction of the first transcontinental railroad, an engineering feat unprecedented for its time. The series documents the railroad's incredible feat of engineering and construction as well as the institutionalized greed and corruption, the immigrant experience, and the plight of the newly emancipated African Americans during reconstruction.
