Adaptations of classic literature goes
Watch Man of Steel Online Thanks to the film's fantastic supporting cast, it wouldn't be too hard for Rodriguez to keep pumping out these character posters between now Machete Kills' release date. In addition to "Estevez," Gaga, Vergara and Rodriguez you also have Trejo, Gibson, Amber Heard, Antonio Banderas, Jessica Alba, Demian Bichir, Alexa Vega, Vanessa Hudgens, Cuba Gooding, Jr., and William Sadler as possible candidates for one sheets. Then again, after The Beaver's lack of success at the box office back in 2011 maybe it would be best to keep Gibson out of the marketing as much as possible.
Watch The Hangover 3 Online While most movies tend to release character posters in bunches, Rodriguez has actually been pushing them out at random times over the last year or so, starting with Lady Gaga as La Chameleon in July 2012. Other posters have included Sofia Vergara as Desdemona, and Michelle Rodriguez who returns as She. You can see all of the previously released designs below as well as the trailer that arrived online in May (just ignore the release dates).
Watch World War Z Online First announced to be part of the cast back in June of last year, "Estevez" will be playing the President of the United States in the upcoming Grindhouse thriller, which sees Danny Trejo return in the title role. The film sees the President and Machete forge an alliance in order to stop a psychotic weapons dealer (Mel Gibson) from launching a missile into space. Unfortunately, those of you who are excited for the movie will have to wait a little longer to see it. Last month we reported that Machete Kills was moving from its original release date on September 13th to October 4th - taking over the spot vacated by Rodriguez's Sin City: A Dame To Kill For, which was recently pushed back to 2014.
Watch The Hangover Part 3 Online Because Charlie Sheen took his father's stage name when he began his career as an actor (unlike his brothers and sister), people sometimes forget that he is actually of Spanish decent. Born Carlos Irwin Estévez, the Anger Management star has been credited as "Charlie Sheen" ever since he starred as Matt in 1984's Red Dawn. But now that he's teeming up with Latin-and-proud filmmaker Robert Rodriguez, Sheen is set to let his inner Spaniard out...and it starts with this brand new character poster from Machete Kills (which comes to us via Rodriguez's Twitter feed).
Watch The Internship Online You kind of work through it in that process and then sure, yeah, you’ve got to go, “It is the Lone Ranger, so we need to have the Silver Bullet, gotta have the mask, gotta have the horse,†and then you sort of work that stuff in. But you kind of get to play with it.A little bit because we’re saying this is Tonto who kind of created all this stuff and you don’t entirely trust the narrator. O'Barr's basic story allows for many different men (or women) to take on the Crow's powers in their pursuit of vigilante justice. So, there could be a worthwhile story told with this remake penned by Warrior co-writer Cliff Dorfman. I don't anticipate this Crow will be better than the first movie, but Relativity has been fighting hard to get this one made. For the lead, they've considered stars like Mark Wahlberg, Bradley Cooper, Channing Tatum, James McAvoy, Tom Hiddleston, and Alexander Skarsgard. And with O'Barr on board, there will be someone there keeping the project true to the roots that snagged our fascination back in 1994. After all, it can't rain all the time.
As far as adaptations of classic literature goes, John Ford's adaptation of John Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath is unquestionably one of the greatest. The film not only won two Academy Awards when it was first released, winning both Best Director and Best Supporting Actress, but has gone down in history as one of the best films ever made, ranking number 21 of AFI's notable 100 Years... 100 Movies list. It's hard to imagine any filmmaker being able to use the same source material to create something even close to the same level, but that's not stopping Steven Spielberg from trying. Deadline has learned that Spielberg and Dreamworks are now negotiating with the Steinbeck estate to get the rights to make a new adaptation of The Grapes of Wrath. According to the story, the property has become a hot one recently in Hollywood, but Spielberg was able to "[swoop] in to take it off the table over other bidders." Robert Redford was reportedly interested in working with Dark Shadows producer David Kennedy to adapt the novel as a miniseries for the FX network, but apparently the Lincoln director was able to convince the owners of the rights that the proper approach would be to make a new feature. There was some early talk about Spielberg directing the new version himself, but sources at the studio say that he will only be taking a producorial part in the project.
