Transformers 3:

Michael Bay announced today Transformers 3 will be hitting theaters on July 1, 2011 as was previously reported and then denied by Bay only to now be reconfirmed. Here's how his announcement reads:

 

Well its official: We have a great Transformers 3 story. The release date is now July 1st 2011. Not 2012.

 

Today is Day One. This morning started with an ILM meeting for five hours in San Francisco. Currently I'm flying with writer Ehren Kruger to Rhode Island to talk to Hasbro about new characters.

 

P.S. Megan Fox, welcome back. I promise no alien robots will harm you in any way during the production of this motion picture. Please consult your Physician when working under my direction because some side effects can occur, such as mild dizziness, intense nausea, suicidal tendencies, depression, minor chest hair growth, random internal hemorrhaging and inability to sleep. As some directors may be hazardous to your health, please consult your Doctor to determine if this is right for you.

 

Pain and Gain is right after shooting of Trans 3.

Thor:

Stellan Skarsgard has revealed that he has a role in the upcoming Marvel Studios’ Thor movie.

 

Skarsgard joins a cast that already includes Natalie Portman, Colm Feore, Tom Hiddleston, Jaimie Alexander and the little known Chris Hemsworth, who will play Thor. Hemsworth appeared in Star Trek earlier this summer. He played George Kirk, the father of James T. Kirk.

 

There is also a rumour that Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) will make an appearance and we can also expect some kind of cameo from Stan “The Man” Lee.

 

Kenneth Branagh is the lucky man who will direct Thor.

 

Filming is scheduled to being in January 2010 and the studio has targetted May 20, 2011 as its release date.

 

 

 

Little Fockers:

Jessica Alba is becoming a Focker. The actress is in negotiations to join the Ben Stiller-Robert DeNiro comedy "Little Fockers." She'd play the role of an attractive pharmaceutical rep whose looks wreak havoc on male characters in the story.

 

Paul Weitz is directing the third installment in the Universal and Tribeca Productions franchise. Universal is banking heavily on "Fockers," one of the studio's few go-to franchises. Production is set to begin in the next few months, with a 2010 release date likely.

 

The picture is expect to pick up where 2004's "Meet the Fockers" left off, with Stiller's Gaylord Focker and Teri Polo's Pamela Byrnes having a child (or children -- reports abound that they could be having twins). John Hamburg penned the latest version of the script.

 

 

 

Real Steel:

Hugh Jackman is in talks to star in the sci-fi boxing thriller "Real Steel" for DreamWorks Pictures. "I Am Legend" author Richard Matheson penned the original short story which was previously adapted into an episode of "The Twilight Zone". Shawn Levy directs the project which John Gatins is currently rewriting. Don Murphy and Susan Montford are producing. Filming kicks off in May.

 

Jackman is to play an ex-fighter who becomes a promoter when human boxing is outlawed for being too violent. The new gladiators are 2,000-pound robots with human qualities. The ex-fighter's access to sub-standard robot parts hampers his hopes for glory in Robot Boxing, until he discovers a discarded robot that always seems to win. The ex-fighter has also discovered he's the father of a 13-year old son, and they bond as the robot brawls its way toward the top.

MARVEL MOVIE UPDATES:

X-MEN honcho Lauren Shuler Donner recently talked to Empire, and gave them a full rundown on the upcoming films, including time frames, plot details and those attached to each movie.

 

 

WOLVERINE 2:

"That's the furthest along of all the X-Men projects on the boil. It's actually the story we wanted to use for the first Wolverine film, but [Fox head honcho] Tom Rothman preferred to set the character up with an origin story first. This movie will really focus on the relationship between Wolverine and Mariko, the daughter of a Japanese crime lord, and what happens to him in Japan. We're very fortunate to have a story mostly outlined for us [from the comic book arc co-written by Chris Claremont and Frank Miller]. And we wanted an A+ writer, so we want to Chris McQuarrie (Valkyrie, The Usual Suspects). He came in and has tightened the story and got really immersed in the whole thing - he's in Japan in his head!

 

X-MEN: FIRST CLASS:

"Harry Potter is a bit of a role model for us, absolutely. But we want it to be like the recent, darker Potters. It should not be a kiddie movie - we're in the X-Men world so you can't suddenly change the tone... We want to make this a franchise, following these kids at the school, so the casting of the child actors will be all-important."

 

DEADPOOL:

"I want to ignore the version of Deadpool that we saw in Wolverine and just start over again. Reboot it. Because this guy talks, obviously, and to muzzle him would be insane... We're right in the thick of talking to writers right now, and hopefully by November we'll have decided who's going to do it. We need someone really imaginative because we want to do some really innovative, ambitious stuff. Ryan's mentioned this in an interview already but there are parts where he's going to break the fourth wall and talk directly to the audience in the cinema. We have to work out how to do that. I don't know that Fox will agree with all our decisions, but we'll see!"

 

MAGNETO:

"I'm not sure that film is going to be made. The studio has a wealth of potential stories, and they have to stand back and decide which ones to make. And Magneto, I think, is at the back of the queue. Maybe it'll get made in five years - who knows? I can tell you that Ian McKellen won't be playing the character the whole way through. We used Lola technology in X-Men 3 to de-age Ian and Patrick for one scene, but it's very expensive. To do that for a two-hour movie would be prohibitive financially."

Rick Riordan's series of adventure books for young adults is headed for for the screen with Chris Columbus at the helm, which bodes well for fantasy/adventure tomes.

The Lightning Thief's film adaptation rounds out it's godly cast with Rosario Dawson as Persephone, Steve Coogan as Hades, Uma Thurman as Medusa, Pierce Brosnan as Chiron, Ray Winstone as Ares, Kevin McKidd as Poseidon and Sean Bean as Zeus, as well as the more mortal Catherine Keener as Percy’s mom. With Chris Columbus at the helm.

The Wolfman:

http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/8894/capture214200974012pm31.jpg

 

Inspired by the classic Universal film that launched a legacy of horror, "The Wolfman" brings the myth of a cursed man back to its iconic origins. Oscar® winner Benicio Del Toro stars as Lawrence Talbot, a haunted nobleman lured back to his family estate after his brother vanishes. Reunited with his estranged father (Oscar® winner Anthony Hopkins), Talbot sets out to find his brother... and discovers a horrifying destiny for himself.

 

Lawrence Talbot's childhood ended the night his mother died. After he left the sleepy Victorian hamlet of Blackmoor, he spent decades recovering and trying to forget. But when his brother's fiancée, Gwen Conliffe (Emily Blunt), tracks him down to help find her missing love, Talbot returns home to join the search. He learns that something with brute strength and insatiable bloodlust has been killing the villagers, and that a suspicious Scotland Yard inspector named Aberline (Hugo Weaving) has come to investigate.

 

As he pieces together the gory puzzle, he hears of an ancient curse that turns the afflicted into werewolves when the moon is full. Now, if he has any chance at ending the slaughter and protecting the woman he has grown to love, Talbot must destroy the vicious creature in the woods surrounding Blackmoor. But as he hunts for the nightmarish beast, a simple man with a tortured past will uncover a primal side to himself... one he never imagined existed.
