HENRY CAVILL & BENJAMIN WALKER IN "THE GREAT WALL" EPIC MYSTERY! ABBIE CORNISH & SAMUEL L. JACKSON JOIN JOEL KINNAMAN & GARY OLDMAN IN "ROBOCOP"! ACTION EPIC ON SIR ISAAC NEWTON?

You know that HOLLYWOOD SPY was one of the very first sites to support and promote amazing British star Henry Cavill even before he got his big gigs in IMMORTALS and MAN OF STEEL, so one of our most anticipated 

future projects is THE GREAT WALL. Henry has gotten the role in this film last year, but now "Collider" reports that Benjamin Walker (ABRAHAM LINCOLN VAMPIRE HUNTER) has taken the second lead role beating Alexander Skarsgard (TRUE BLOOD) to it (I personally think Alexander would've been a better choice). The period pic explores “the mysteries” behind the construction of The Great Wall in China, and apparently involves some inhuman element that the builders of the wall are trying to keep out. Cavill and Walker will play 15th century British soldiers who stumble upon the construction of the wall,

and presumably get caught up in the havoc that this supernatural presence brings. The film is being helmed by famous Edward Zwick (LEGENDS OF THE FALL, THE LAST SAMURAI).

HOLLYWOOD SPY HEADLINES

You already know that TV star Joel Kinnaman (THE KILLING) will play the lead role in the remake of the famous ROBOCOP film from the 80's and Gary Oldman will play the scientist who creates the enhanced robot version of an ordinary cop. According to latest news,

Samuel L. Jackson is now in talks to take the role of a charismatic TV mogul and a powerful force in the Robocop world while Abbie Cornish could take the role of Kinnaman's wife who thinks she is a widow and doesn't know he was turned into a ROBOCOP. The shooting should start this September.

According to "Collider" producers Rob Cohen ("The Fast and the Furious") and Gene Kirkwood ("Rocky") are looking to turn the life of Sir ISAAC NEWTON into an action film for the new studio BiteSize

Entertainment, which was unveiled during the Cannes Film Festival this year. Although we mostly know the famous scientist for his work describing universal gravitation and the three laws of motion (and apocryphally as the man who had an apple fall on his head that lead to these discoveries), a less known fact about Sir Isaac Newton is that he worked both as chief detective and head of the British Mint, a position the famous scientist held for the last 30 years of his life. The film will turn the famous 17th century mathematician, astronomer, natural philosopher, alchemist, and theologian into an action warrior.
