Thai Actor Tony Jaa (who starred in Ong-Bak Muay Thai Warrior) is joining the cast of fast and Furious 7, the upcoming Fast and Furious movie that’s set to pit Vin Diesel against Jason Statham.

Trailer of Fast and Furious 7

Plot:
“After Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) and his crew helped take down Owen Shaw in F&F6, his brother Ian Shaw (Jason Statham) now wants revenge.”

Tony Jaa is a martial arts expert, but he’s a puny man next to Statham and Diesel…

Anyway, a few words from Tony Jaa:

“I have been a big fan of the Fast and Furious franchise. The films are fast-paced, fun and keep the audience involved. There is a great mix of humor and action, something I really appreciate. There is no better film to be involved in for a first U.S. studio production.”

Actor Tony Jaa

Unfortunately we don’t know yet what his role will be in the film. Do you think he’s going to join Dom Toretto’s team? Or is he going to play an antagonist?

In theaters: July 11, 2014.

Warner Bros has officially announced that Actor Ben Affleck is taking over the role of Bruce Wayne aka Batman in the upcoming superhero movie that’s set to pit Superman against Batman! Director Zack Snyder is in charge of the project which is being scripted by David S. Goyer from a story he co-created with Zack Snyder. The film is a sequel to Man of Steel. There’s no official title yet, possibly “Batman vs Superman”.

Ben Affleck will star opposite Henry Cavill, who is reprising his role as Clark Kent aka Superman.

A few words from Director Zack Snyder about Ben Affleck:

“Ben provides an interesting counter-balance to Henry Cavill’s Superman. He has the acting chops to create a layered portrayal of a man who is older and wiser than Clark Kent and bears the scars of a seasoned crime fighter, but retain the charm that the world sees in billionaire Bruce Wayne. I can’t wait to work with him.”

Director Zack Snyder

Since they’re going for a “mature” actor, the film will likely be inspired by Part 2 of “The Dark Knight Returns”, watch the trailer below:

Production should start in 2014 and they’re hoping for a release in Summer 2015.
