Captain America’s new costume isn’t as flashy as in the original comics, but no reason to complain: Captain America looks way better in his new costume! Don’t you agree?

The movie Coriolanus is directed by Ralph Finnes who’s making his directorial debut. It’s a modern take on Shakespeare’s famous tragedy of the same name. The film should be released in 2011.

A few days ago, Warner chairman and CEO Barry Meyer revealed that there’s is a slate of movies based on DC Comics superheros in development. Among them, Aquaman! Yep, the fish man is likely to get his own movie. Actually we already knew about this live action Aquaman movie: it was announced back in 2009 that Leonardo DiCaprio’s production company would produce Aquaman for Warner Bros. But nothing happened since then so we can but welcome Meyer’s update.

Aquaman Trailer

The movie Aquaman is listed for 2013 release on IMDb… But there’s nothing official yet. We don’t even know yet what version of Aquaman the film will be based on.

Anyway, who do you think could play as Aquaman?

Here’s a first look at the world of Terra Nova:

The official synopsis of the upcoming Green Lantern movie has been revealed by Warner Bros:

Green Lantern Movie

Plot of the Green Lantern:
“In a universe as vast as it is mysterious, a small but powerful force has existed for centuries. Protectors of peace and justice, they are called the Green Lantern Corps. A brotherhood of warriors sworn to keep intergalactic order, each Green Lantern wears a ring that grants him superpowers. But when a new enemy called Parallax threatens to destroy the balance of power in the Universe, their fate and the fate of Earth lie in the hands of their newest recruit, the first human ever selected: Hal Jordan.
Hal is a gifted and cocky test pilot, but the Green Lanterns have little respect for humans, who have never harnessed the infinite powers of the ring before. But Hal is clearly the missing piece to the puzzle, and along with his determination and willpower, he has one thing no member of the Corps has ever had: humanity. With the encouragement of fellow pilot and childhood sweetheart Carol Ferris (Blake Lively), if Hal can quickly master his new powers and find the courage to overcome his fears, he may prove to be not only the key to defeating Parallax…he will become the greatest Green Lantern of all.”

The Green Lantern movie is directed by Martin Campbell and is starring Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively, Peter Sarsgaard, and Mark Strong. The film will be released on June 17, 2011.

Mankind’s supremacy on Earth will be challenged once again: there’s indeed a new prequel to the Planet of the Apes ahead of us. The film, titled Rise of the Apes, is directed by Rupert Wyatt and is starring James Franco as a scientist. The movie Rise of the Apes should be released on June 24, 2011.

Rise of the Apes Trailer

Plot:
“Set in present day San Francisco, the film will follow a scientist (James Franco) working on a cure for Alzheimer’s and his test ape, Caesar. The experiments with genetic engineering lead to the development of intelligence in apes and the onset of a war for supremacy.”

This time around they won’t hire costumed actors to play the monkeys: the plan is to use CGI. That’s why Fox is partnering with Peter Jackson’s WETA, they intend to use the same technologies created for Avatar. So we may expect a quite realistic movie.

I was fan of the previous Planet of the Apes movie, so I definitely welcome the Rise of the Apes!
:)

Warner chairman and CEO Barry Meyer said that a live action Wonder Woman movie is in development. There was talk of a Wonder Woman movie since quite a while, but nothing official. So I’m glad to hear that the execs at Warner Bros really want to carry out the project. No official plot nor release date yet though..

Wonder Woman Trailer

Of course fans didn’t wait for Barry Meyer’s confirmation to look for the right actress to play the role of Wonder Woman:

Unfortunately Megan Fox as Wonder Woman is unlikely to happen. Megan Fox dissed the superheroin Wonder Woman not long ago:

But she isn’t attached anymore to the Transformers franchise. So there still hope!

Is there any other actress who would look the part as Wonder Woman?
:)

James McAvoy (who had the lead role in Wanted) will play as the young Professor X in the upcoming X-Men First Class movie.

X-Men First Class Trailer

Plot:
“Before Charles Xavier and Erik Lensherr took the names Professor X and Magneto, they were two young men discovering their powers for the first time. Before they were archenemies, they were closest of friends, working together, with other Mutants (some familiar, some new), to stop the greatest threat the world has ever known. In the process, a rift between them opened, which began the eternal war between Magneto’s Brotherhood and Professor X’s X-MEN.”

Matthew Vaughn will be helming the project. The movie X-Men First Class will be released on June 3, 2011.

The release date of Sherlock Holmes 2, the upcoming movie sequel to Guy Ritchie’s Sherlock Holmes starring Robert Downey Jr and Jude Law, has been announced: the film will be released on December, 16 2011.

Sherlock Holmes 2 Trailer

From what I heard the plot is likely to move from London to the European continent, in France and maybe Switzerland. Oh and by the way, the beautiful Rachel MacAdams, who played as Irene Adler, Sherlock Holmes’s tricky love interest in the first film, will be back for Sherlock Holmes 2!
:)

Here’s what Director Michael Patrick King recently said about a potential Sex and the City 3 movie:

Sex and the City 3 Trailer

And here’s what Kim Cattrall replied when asked about SATC 3:

Well, I pretty Sex and the City 2 is going to be a hit, so I bet the studios will push for a new sequel. So I think we may fairly assume that there’s going to be a Sex and the City 3 movie, and sooner than later because the girls are kind of getting old…
:)

Seems like Hollywood is desperately looking for new sources of inspiration: there’s a live action Dilbert movie ahead of us! Yep, the satirical comic strip that poke fun at the corporate world is going to make it to the big screen.

Dilbert Trailer

Plot:
“Dilbert portrays corporate culture as a Kafkaesque world of bureaucracy for its own sake and office politics that stand in the way of productivity, where employees’ skills and efforts are not rewarded, and busy work is praised. Much of the humor emerges as the audience sees the characters making obviously ridiculous decisions that are natural reactions to mismanagement.”

Director Ken Kwapis (who helmed a few episodes of the Office) has been hired to helm the project. I can understand the choice, but I’m not sure I agree with it… Dilbert is way deeper than The Office. Need someone damn talented to make a successful adaptation of Dilbert! And who could play the role of Dilbert? And what about Dogbert? Are they goign to use CGI for Dilbert’s pet dog?

Anyway, today I did nothing and still got paid! What about you?
:)

Do you remember MacGyver the popular TV series from the 1980s? yep, that guy who just needs junk and a Swiss army knife to build bombs or anything else. Richard Dean Anderson had the title role as MacGyver before switching to Stargate later on. Well, Warner bros announced that they’re planning a movie adaptation of MacGyver.

MacGyver Trailer

The screenplay of MacGyver movie will be written by Scriptwritter Jason Richman . And I guess MacGyver creator Lee Zlotoff will give him a hand. No confirmation yet if Richard Dean Anderson will be on board. I doubt he will get the lead role (come on he’s too old! and if you’d watch last week episode of Stargate Universe you’d know he’s getting fat) but I still hope he will do cameo of some sort.
:)

The movie rights to Mass Effect, the popular video game by BioWare, have been bought by Legendary Pictures. So we’re likely to get a live action movie adaptation of Mass Effect to the big screen in a not too distant future. Scriptwriter Mark Protosevich is in charge of the script.

Mass Effect Trailer

Plot:
“A futuristic soldier fights to save mankind from an ancient machine race that invades the galaxy and wipe out all advanced organic civilization every 50,000 years”

I wonder if the production of a Mass Effect movie will rekindle Microsoft’s interest in a live action Halo movie, well, hope so!
:)
