More on The Things They Carried which will be Tom Hardy's biggest risk. He's the executive producer, if the film doesn't connect it will be entirely on him. He's also the oldest member of the cast.
Going back to the theater?
- Thread starter Insidious Von
- Start date
If you watch closely, Cillian Murphy nearly loses it. How he kept his composure is beyond me.

Edgar Wright who made his name collaborating with Simon Pegg (Shawn of the Dead, Hot Fuzz and At World's End) , who latest film was Baby Driver is going for the horror genre. He's reworking the Mephistopheles theme with two sensational young actresses fronting the film. Mephistopheles is a demon in German lore who grants fantasies with strings attached. This film is Diana Rigg's last acting credit.
Anya Taylor Joy as Mephistopheles?

ScarJo was excellent in JoJo Rabbit but Thomasin MacEnzie impressed me just as much. An Edgar Wright film with her and Anya Taylor Joy - I'm in.
I did not watch either of the films mentioned but I did watch the German classic Mephisto (1981) and The Twilight Zone: A Nice Place to Visit which could be be closer refrences. Or I could be totally wrong.

Funny how things work out.
Kristen Stewart is supposed to be the greatest actress in the universe, her films get a ton of publicity - and then they bomb. Her latest red ink film is called The Happiest Season.
Katheryn Winnick, makes her first post - Vikings film alongside Liam Neeson and it's currently the most in demand film. As Slim Pickens once said, "well bless my ass, how'd that happen".

I don't understand why exciting young actresses are forced to work with hacks. Gorgeous Ana de Armas, has a new film coming called Deep Water. After Knives Out, she could pick the male co-star she wants (she's working with Chris Evans in a future project). Poor girl, like Rosmund Pike before her, she has to carry Ben Affleck's worthless ass.
When you're a raw talent and you get to work with a colossus like Christopher Plummer, in the words of Bob Fosse, it makes you a btter actor than you could have imagined.
During the Halftime Show of the Super Bowl, Sony released a teaser for Venom 2. Tom Hardy hired Andy Serkis to direct the film so that the symbiotes could be rendered in spot motion. I like the results, Venom moves like Tom in the movie. As is his custom, Tom likes to promote new talent in Jessie Vinning. I just hope there's more comic ad-libs between Dr. Dan Lewis and his "patient" Eddie Brock, the little there was in the first film was comedy gold.
With Daniel day Lewis retired, what makes Tom Hardy the GOAT.
Is it the details he puts into a scene? George Miller probably wasn't expecting him to go into a Lord Humongous run from The Road Warrior.

After watching his Audi Super Bowl commercial, I suspect he got his nose broken again. Like The Soup Nazi, he suffers for his art.
This is where he got it broken the first time.

Emilia Clarke and Daisy Ridley are having problems getting work. Emilia Clarke we knew, she got the kiss of death after her comedic Muppet turn as Sarah Connor in Terminator Genesys. When she said "come with me if you want to live" the audience laughed.
Daisy Ridley is a different matter, she's never actually gotten to develop a character, almost all the Star Wars films are toilet droppings. Prior to Star Wars all she had was bit roles. Then she became the All Conquering Female Jedi with not an ounce of fallibility. Which was a shame since she has some charisma. The problem with both these actresses is they are both a full year older than Emma Stone, not to mention the crop of very talented actresses born in the 90's.

Neither actress has the pedigree of an Adam Driver, he'll not only survive the Star Wars disaster, he'll thrive.
His career started to take off in Martin Scorsese's controversial Silence. The best film of the 10's but a film impossible to love - I wont watch it a second time.

The breakout talents of 2020 are Anya Taylor Joy and Maria Bakalova.
I like Borat's Subsequent Film better than Cultural Exchange to Make Benefit.

I had zero interest in watching Kristen Stewart's lesbian Christmas film. However being a Communist Prevert, a lesbian film starring Anya Taylor Joy and Maria Bakalova, THAT I would watch!
They are both 23.

After their brilliant turn in Knives Out, I've been waiting for this...chasing the winter blues away. With Cari Joji Fukunaga directing (True Detective, Beasts of No Nation) it could be among the best 007.
Incantevole Signorita de Armas has the proper hair colour.

It's been delayed twice. It was supposed to come out for the Holiday Season last year. Then it got pushed back to June 25, red flags went up, it would have competed with Venom 2 for asses in seats. Now it's slated of Oct 8 of this year.
Matera is a Unesco World Heritage site, major props for getting to film there.
