Angelina Jolie as Maleficent

July 12, 2010 - 12:37 am No Comments

Screen shot 2010-07-12 at 7.37.19 AM Hollywood royalty Angelina Jolie has said in an interview while promoting her latest movie “Salt”, that she would love to be working under Tim Burton. The director, who is known for his quirky movies like “Alice in Wonderland”, is set to direct “Maleficent”, the evil step-mother character of the classic fairy tale, Sleeping Beauty. And Angelina says it would be a dream to play her.

No news or confirmation from reps of Tim Burton or the studio producing the movie. But Maleficent would be another role perfect for the Academy-award winning actress. She has not worked with Tim Burton before and once she does, this will become another accomplishment from her, and possibly, the role that will define and keep her relevant still.

Would you like to see Angelina play Maleficent?

Andrew Garfield Becomes The Latest Spider-man

July 5, 2010 - 6:45 am No Comments

Screen shot 2010-07-05 at 5.58.49 AM A few months ago, it’s been reported that Spider-Man is getting a reboot but will not have Tobey Maguire playing the lead role anymore. The actor was Peter Parker for the last three Spider-Man movies. Following this, the search for a new actor to step up to the role was underway. There have been names suggested. But late last week, the studio producing the movie has made its choice and has picked Andrew Garfield as the new Spider-Man.

But his name is still unfamiliar. Garfield’s last film is with the late Heath Ledger in The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus and he is also part of the cast in the soon to be released movie about Facebook called The Social Network, directed by David Finch.

Marc Webb, who has been tapped to direct the movie after Sam Raimi also dropped out of the project and has also directed the acclaimed 500 Days of Summer, said of his new talent —

“Though his name may be new to many, those who know this young actor’s work understand his extraordinary talents. He has a rare combination of intelligence, wit, and humanity. Mark my words, you will love Andrew Garfield as Peter Parker.”

Garfield, 26 years old, was born in America but was raised in England. He has appeared in some British production including the drama, Boy A where he was hailed by critics for his talent.

Filming of Spider-Man’s reboot, which should have technically been the fourth installment, will start in December, with a planned release date sometime July of 2012. The film is going to be shot in 3D.

miley-cyrus-pictureTeen star Miley Cyrus is prepared to go a different direction for her career. She is ready to leave her clean-cut Disney image for a darker, more mature image, as she has signed to do the movie, “Wake”. The film is a paranormal thriller, and one of the first few projects the teen star has taken since announcing that she will be concentrating on making movies until next year.

Wake is based on a novel written by Lisa McMann, which is about a teenager who gets into dreams by other people and relives their nightmares.

The book is actually a trilogy, and the film producers are interested in getting the film rights for the rest of it, with Miley in the project.

Can the Disney Princess shake her Hanna Montana image?
