  • Assorted movie bits

    The Dark Tower

    reports are that director Ron Howard has offered the role of Roland Deschain, The Gunslinger, to Oscar winning actor Javier Bardem.

    Superman (?The Man of Steel?)

    you western Canadians may want to keep your eyes open for filming locations in your area. Canadian filming starts next summer, beginning in Vancouver then they'll move to Alberta.

    Prometheus

    all but confirmed that Michael Fassbender (also playing Magneto in X-MEN: First Class) has been cast in Ridley Scott's coming Sci-Fi/Alien-universe epic.

    The Hobbit

    filming has been slightly delayed because of Peter Jackson requiring emergency surgery for a perforated ulcer. He's said to be doing fine.

    Snow White and the Huntsman

    a new take on the classic fairy tale. Huntsman will feature an expanded role for the part of the Huntsman (Viggo Mortenson). In the Brothers Grimm version he's ordered to take Snow White into the woods and kill her, but instead lets her go. In the new take the Huntsman is a mentor who teaches Snow White how to fight and survive vs. the evil queen (Charlize Theron). Snow White hasn't been cast.

    Heavy Rain

    Warner Brothers will be adapting the video game as a major-budget 'tent-pole' psychological thriller. David Milch (Deadwood, NYPD Blue, HBO's Luck) is doing the adaptation.
