(years are in question), the shooting is finally ready to begin. It is interesting that George Miller, the director, is planning to shoot two films back to back, first FURY ROAD and then FURIOSA, the second one being titled after Charlize Theron's character, a shaved headed one armed warrioress! As you know the lead role this time goes to Tom Hardy who revealed that we shall see a restructuring of the original world using the same character, depositing him in the same world, but bringing him up to date by 30 years. The latest info from Down Under states that gorgeous Rosie Huntington Whiteley, known as the star of THE TRANSFORMERS film and as Jason Statham's fiancee, will play one of Mad Max's five wives in the film. The $100 million movie will also have Nicholas Hoult in the cast.
HOLLYWOOD SPY HEADLINES
Here's another movie telling a story of a famous writer. Walt Disney is preparing SAVING MR. BANKS, in which the story will follow
"Mary Poppins" author P.L. Travers (to be played by Emma Thompson), from her early childhood days in early 1900s Queensland, to her experiences in the 1960s, when she was negotiating with Walt Disney (to be played by Tom Hanks) about movie adaptations of her books. "The Hollywood Reporter" wrote this weekend that Colin Farrell might join the cast as the author's father, a banker who started drinking heavily after going through some hard times financially and whose hardships had a profound effect on her writing.

THE HORDE TRAILER
When it comes to trailers, today you have the honour to check out a visually stunning clip for Russian epic Орда or THE HORDE which hits Russian cinemas this September. Directed by Andrei Proskin, the epic tells the story of the horde, something that brought bloody tragedies and humiliating slavery to so many people around the world. The horde brought with itself a frightening world with its scary rules and oppressions. A man is sent to that world to do what no man has done before. Set in Russia under the Mongol-Tatar yoke, when the Orthodox nation was under the rule of brutal and warlike nomads of the steppes the film follows a man on a mission to
save the wife of a powerful khagan who will, in gratitude, decide not to erase the Slavic principalities and cities from the face of the Earth with his horde.
