Could the next J. Bourne film be a prequel sans M. Damon and director P. Greengrass? Is it possible I’m not just blindly speculating and there is a real quote to substantiate this rumor? Yes and yes! “There’ll probably be a prequel of some kind with another actor and another director before we do another one,” [Matt Damon] said, “just because I think we’re probably another five years away from doing it – we’ve got to get a script… This could go a couple ways. Slightly younger Bourne’s pre- Identity story: boring. Child Bourne breaking some kids’ necks on the playground: let’s do that. Any other ways I don’t want to bother thinking about.
Emily Blunt had to shoot a scene for The Adjustment Bureau where she and Matt Damon run through New York traffic, and it looks as if her boobs were ready to pop out of her halter! Not that anyone is…
His expression is easier to read if you imagine he’s on the street, and someone is shouting: “Hey! Matt! Matt Damon! I’m fucking Matt Damon! Hey! I’m fucking Matt Damon! You know, the song? I’m fucking Matt Damon! How about those apples? Hey, where’s Ben? Ben Affleck. Where’s Ben Affleck? Matt? Matt?” New Green Zone Poster [Empire]
Eat your Oscar bait: the trailer for Clint Eastwood’s Invictus . Based on John Carlin’s book Playing the Enemy: Nelson Mandela and the Game That Changed a Nation , it’s a film that shows how a rugby game was able to unite a racially divided nation, and how, apparently, a rugby game can be won if the president tells the captain, “Come on, guys, win this rugby game!” Simple as that:
From Paul Greengrass, the Billy Connolly-looking man who brought you Matt Damon Kicks People’s Asses in Shaky-Cam Parts 2 & 3 (known formally as the latter thirds of the Bourne trilogy), I present you with Matt Damon Kicks People’s Asses in Shaky-Cam in the Middle East, Green Zone (with political overtones by Talk Soup ’s Greg Kinnear!):
The Coen Brothers are making a more faithful adaptation of True Grit AND proven actors are taking the leads? YES. You thought you’d have to save up Make-A-Wish children to get such a dream come true, but it’s happened : Matt Damon and Josh Brolin are in discussions with Joel and Ethan Coen to join Jeff Bridges in “True Grit,” the re-imagining of the iconic 1969 Western that Paramount Pictures will put into production next March for late 2010 release. The Coens, who previously attached their “Big Lebowski” star Bridges to play U.S. marshal Rooster Cogburn, are in talks with Damon to play the lawman (played by Glen Campbell in the original) who teams with Cogburn and a 14-year old girl to track her father’s killer into hostile Indian territory. In a turnabout, Brolin is in talks to play the killer. So, in short, a good movie with good actors will come out in a year. I’ll let you know if I hear about any others.
Continuing the recent trend of airbrushed-on-the-back-of-a-jacket poster design , Clint Eastwood’s Nelson Mandela + rugby film now has an official poster on Yahoo . I’m hoping this style eventually evolves into more of an embroidered-on-a-jacket look, so that I can have a good pattern for embroidering Matt Damon on the back of my jean jacket.
Two of Hollywood's strongest actors working today, Matt Damon and Emily Blunt, continue filming The Adjustment Bureau in the Big Apple together… Looks like they're having a blast, too! They're both in relationships, though, so let's hope the chemistry…
And we're so very grateful he does! Matt Damon lost the chunk he gained for The Informant! and is now back to his usual sexy self for The Adjustment Bureau in NYC, a sci-fi romance about an affair between…
Empire has the new poster for The Informant , Steven Soderbergh’s latest that stars Matty D as a bumbling whistle-blower. I feel like the image is imitating a specific movie poster from decades past, but I don’t know what movie that would be, so I’m going to say it’s imitating when a Looney Tunes character would be tip-toeing into a spooky situation carrying a candle, and their shadow would start moving independently from them. Great reference, Soderbergh.
