Michelle Williams as Marilyn Monroe in “My Week with Marilyn”

Director Simon Curtis started shooting his film My Week with Marilyn as of today with Michelle Williamsin the titular role, and the first photo of Williams has hit the net. Although the casting seems a bit odd at first, I must say that in the photo the resemblance is uncanny. I am now intrigued by this film and very interested to see if it can transcend the biopic genre. My Week with Marilyn also stars Emma Watson, Kenneth Branagh, Eddie Redmayne, Judi Dench, and Dominic Cooper. Continue on to read the synopsis and see Michelle Williams as Marilyn Monroe.

5 min Thor Comic Con Trailer is here!

The extended trailer for Marvel’s Thor that was shown at Comic Con is now online, and is an interesting bled of super cheesy drama and fairly badass action. Whether or not the film will turn out to be fun or a complete mess is still up in the air, but it looks like director Kenneth Branagh is the right choice for the material after all.

Geek Round Up| The Riddler in Batman 3, Thor and Captain America Posters, and Cult Art

???

A “reliable source” from website www.firstshowing.net has gotten it’s hands on a casting grid for Batman 3 indicating that The Riddler is the primary villain in the film. A casting grid is basically a chart for agents and studios to keep them abreast of what roles need to be cast in said film. The site is also claiming that the chart puts actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt in the top spot for the role. The casting could be feasible considering Levitt’s recent work with Nolan in Inception, and I’d be down with him playing the part as he’s a fantastic young actor. However, I’m still holding out hope that Nolan and his brother, Batman 3 screenwriter Jonathan Nolan, will go with a villain we haven’t seen before. This would be more in line with every statement all the creators have made regarding the 3rd film in the series. Read the rest of this entry »
