As you've probably noticed the hottest thing in Hollywood currently is the casting process for
David Dobkin's new epic
ARTHUR & LANCELOT which will offer a new vision on the famous medieval legend. I've told you that THE KILLING star
Joel Kinnaman is close to signing the deal for Lancelot role, but he will have to do screen testing with the candidates for the Arthur role who will have to have chemistry with him. Beside the already mentioned
Kit Harington (John Snow from GAME OF THRONES) other fresh
candidates for the role of the king now include Welsh superstar
Luke Evans (who fits naturally given all of his Godly roles so far - Zeus in IMMORTALS, Apollo in CLASH OF THE TITANS, and looking swell in period costume in THE THREE MUSKETEERS) and
Toby Kebbell (who is nice enough actor, but if you ask me has absolutely no charisma for leading roles. He also starred in CLASH OF THE TITANS). I've informed you last week that
Gary Oldman has been offered the role of Merlin.
HOLLYWOOD SPY HEADLINES
A new role for super talented
Michael Fassbender could be the lead one in
Warner Bros. action drama
LONDONGRAD which
will examine the mysterious death of former KGB spy Alexander Litvinenko, who was poised in 2006 with polonium-210. As "Deadline" writes, the studio apparently wants RISE OF THE PLANET OF THE APES director
Rupert Wyatt to helm the picture.
As "Variety" reports, British film
SONG FOR MARION will hit US cinemas too. With a delightful cast which includes
Terence Stamp, Gemma Arterton and
Vanessa Redgrave this London-set comedic drama follows a grumpy elderly man who is reluctantly inspired by his wife Marion to join an unconventional local choir.
Well if you ask me, it seems the movie adaptation of famous anime
AKIRA, which will be set in futuristic Manhattan, is heading in a very wrong direction. Because when
Keanu Reeves, Brad Pitt and
Justin Timberlake refuse the lead role in a $100 million film and you give it to
Garrett Hedlund, whom most people around the world don't even know and who mostly has flops in his CV, it doesn't sound promising at all, does it? Especially with the latest names who are testing for the second male role being unknown people too:
Alden Ehrenreich and
Ezra Miller. I've no idea who the second one is, but I remember the first one as one of the actors who lost the Spiderman role to
Andrew Garfield. And with
Keira Knightley also in the run for one of the roles, I'm definitely losing any interest in this one.
