Plot:
“Having cheated death, gunslinger and bounty hunter Jonah Hex (Josh Brolin) has one foot in the natural world and one in the supernatural realm. Jonah’s unusual nature gives him the ability to track down anyone, or anything, so the Army makes him an irresistible offer: They’ll erase the warrants on his head if Jonah will find Quentin Turnbull (John Malkovich). But Turnbull, who is preparing to unleash hell on Earth, is Jonah’s oldest enemy and will stop at nothing to kill him once and for all.”

Heard that the first official movie trailer of Jonah Hex will be shown in front of A Nightmare on Elm Street.

James Cameron revealed a few more details regarding the plot of Avatar 2:

Avatar 2 Trailer

“We created a broad canvas for the environment of film. That’s not just on Pandora, but throughout the Alpha Centauri AB system. And we expand out across that system and incorporate more into the story – not necessarily in the second film, but more toward a third film. I’ve already announced this, so I might as well say it: Part of my focus in the second film is in creating a different environment – a different setting within Pandora. And I’m going to be focusing on the ocean on Pandora, which will be equally rich and diverse and crazy and imaginative, but it just won’t be a rain forest. I’m not saying we won’t see what we’ve already seen; we’ll see more of that as well.”

Director James Cameron

So get ready to dive into the ocean on Pandora and to meet new amazing alien creatures!

It may sound premature to talk about a movie sequel to Ridley Scott’s Robin Hood, the movie hasn’t even premiered yet after all. But it looks like there could be a movie sequel to this new Robin Hood movie. Director Ridley Scott said indeed that the first film is actually an origin story and that Robin Hood 2 is quite possible:

Robin Hood 2 Trailer

“[The first Robin Hood movie] is the beginnings of how the man becomes known as Robin the Hood. You don’t really get that until the last few minutes. When you realize that ‘Ah, this is who he is’.
Let’s say we might presume there’s a sequel.”

Director Ridley Scott

I guess Russell Crowe wouldn’t mind to reprise his role in Robin Hood 2, so if the first film performs well, we may definitely expect a sequel.

Hanna is an upcoming thriller movie directed by Joe Wright and starring Saoirse Ronan, Eric Bana, and Cate Blanchett. The film will be released in 2011.

Here’s a first look at Cate Blanchett and Eric Bana in the movie Hanna:

(Click on the picture to enlarge it.)

Plot:
“Hanna (Saoirse Ronan) is a teenage girl. Uniquely, she has the strength, the stamina, and the smarts of a solider; these come from being raised by her father (Eric Bana), an ex-CIA man, in the wilds of Finland. Living a life unlike any other teenager, her upbringing and training have been one and the same, all geared to making her the perfect assassin. The turning point in her adolescence is a sharp one; sent into the world by her father on a mission, Hanna journeys stealthily across Europe while eluding agents dispatched after her by a ruthless intelligence operative with secrets of her own (Cate Blanchett). As she nears her ultimate target, Hanna faces startling revelations about her existence and unexpected questions about her humanity.”

Hard to think about Saoirse Ronan as a killing machine, but I think she’ll do young: she’s young actress, but already have a long career and is definitely talented. I wait with impatience for more material from the movie Hanna!

Plot:
“An assassin hides out in Italy for one last assignment.”

George Clooney reminds me of Sean Connery’s James Bond! They should ditch Danie Craig (who could well be Putin’s twin) and hire Clooney instead!

The Adjustment Bureau is an upcoming sci-fi thriller movie based on Philip K. Dick’s science-fiction short story ‘The Adjustment Team’. The film is directed by George Nolfi. and starring Matt Damon, Emily Blunt, Anthony Mackie, John Slattery, Shohreh Aghdashloo, Michael Kelly and Terence Stamp.

Update, we now have the trailer of the Adjustment Bureau:

(Click on a picture to enlarge it.)

Plot:
“Matt Damon will play David Norris, a charismatic congressman who seems destined for national political stardom and a Fordham University alumnus who was a basketball player while he was there. He meets a beautiful ballet dancer named Elise Sellas, played by Blunt, only to find strange circumstances keeping their sparks from catching fire. Norris discovers forces are at work to keep them apart, and he peels the layers to find out why. The action takes place in various places in Manhattan.”

Judging from the premise, I guess we won’t have that many flabbergasting special effects in this sci-fi movie… But a twisted plot may save the day!
