One of the young actors we find very interesting due to his radiant charisma is young Caleb Landry Jones whom you mostly know by his
role of Banshee in X-MEN FIRST CLASS. According to "Deadline" he will now take the lead role in sf film BROKEN DREAM which is described as a love story set in a futuristic world. It is interesting that famous director John Boorman (EXCALIBUR, BEYOND RANGOON) has been planning to do this project for decades and he apparently spent 20 years looking for the right male lead, after River Phoenix, whom the role was dedicated in the first place, died. John Hurt will play the father of Caleb's character. Caleb seems to be choosing very unusual projects, since other two of his future projects ANTIVIRAL and BYZANTIUM also have interestingly weird plots. Bellow you have a very strange clip from ANTIVIRAL.
HOLLYWOOD SPY HEADLINES
Well, here's something that sounds cute: the first poster for PADDINGTON film which should come out in 2014. The mix of CGI and life action will be based on Michael Bond's popular British
children's book series from the late 1950s that centered on an immigrant bear from Peru who gets adopted by the English Brown family and is given the name Paddington Brown. As you can see on the poster, one of the producers of the film had worked on HARRY PLOPPER saga as well. Meanwhile Warner Bros. has acquired TEMPLE OF HEAVEN an action adventure project which will have elements of ancient Chinese culture and mythology weaved into it. And good news is that Pixar's amazing animated epic BRAVE has conquered the world this weekend earning amazing $150 million worldwide!
