Jeremy Irons-led spy thriller Munich begins production for Netflix

Coming off of his Emmy-nominated work on HBO’s Watchmen miniseries, Jeremy Irons is diving right back into work as production has begun on Netflix’s adaptation of Robert Harris’ bestselling spy thriller Munich, in which Irons leads an ensemble cast.

Based on Harris’ 2017 novel, the logline for the film reads as follows:

It is Autumn 1938 and Europe stands on the brink of war. Adolf Hitler is preparing to invade Czechoslovakia and Neville Chamberlain’s government desperately seeks a peaceful solution. With the pressure building, Hugh Legat, British civil servant, and Paul von Hartmann, German diplomat, travel to Munich for the emergency Conference. As negotiations begin, the two old friends find themselves at the centre of a web of political subterfuge and very real danger. With the whole world watching, can war be averted and, if so, at what cost?

In addition to Irons, who will star as Chamberlain, the cast for the film is set to include George MacKay (True History of the Kelly Gang) as Hugh Legat, Jannis Niewhöhner (Berlin Station) as Paul Hartman, Sandra Hüller (Toni Erdmann) as Helen Winter, Liv Lisa Fries (Counterpart) as Lenya, August Diehl (A Hidden Life) as Franz Sauer, Erin Doherty (The Crown) as Pamela Legat and Martin Wuttke as Adolf Hitler, his second time portraying the infamous dictator after Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds.

“It’s great to see an actor of Jeremy Irons’s stature playing Neville Chamberlain,” Harris said in a statement. “This will be the first time a major movie has gone beyond the cult of Winston Churchill and tried to show Chamberlain in a more sympathetic light.”

Rachel Nichols to lead macabre horror pic Demigod

After featuring in major recurring roles on the small screen over the past few years, Rachel Nichols (Continuum, The Librarians) is gearing up to the return to the film world to lead the upcoming horror pic Demigod, according to Deadline.

RELATED: Wrong Turn Reboot Receives R-Rating as Possible Release Date Nears

Co-written by Michael Donovan Horn and Miles Doleac (The Dinner Party) and helmed by the latter, the film centers on Robin (Nichols) as she travels to Germany’s Black Forest with her husband Leo (Yohance Myles) following the news of her huntsman grandfather’s death. Upon arriving at his secluded cabin, Robin learns her inheritance is a macabre and terrifying secret that will see her becoming entrenched in an ancient hunting ritual that will force her to reckon with her family’s past and overcome the monstrous obstacles ahead.

“I needed an actor who could play power, pathos, and vulnerability in equal measure,” Doleac said in a statement. “I’ve admired Rachel’s work for many years and I knew she could brilliantly capture this character’s complexities. There’s a lot of pent-up creative energy. It’s exciting and terrifying to be getting back to work on a film. I think, from a creative perspective, that’s a pretty good place to be.”

In addition to Nichols and Myles, the cast for the film will include Jeremy London, Alli Hart, Sherri Eakin and Lindsay Anne Williams, all of whom previously worked with Doleac on the horror-thriller The Dinner Party, and much like the previous project, Doleac will also star in Demigod.

Demigod, which is eyeing a production start in December in Mississippi, is set to be produced by James V. Bulian, Williams and Wesley O’Mary for Doleac’s Historia Films, with Uncork’d Entertainment holding the North American distribution rights to the project.

Wrong Turn Reboot Receives R-Rating as Possible Release Date Nears

According to Film Ratings (via Bloody Disgusting), director Mike P. Nelson’s upcoming Wrong Turn reboot film titled Wrong Turn: The Foundation has officially been given an R-Rating from the MPAA for “strong bloody violence, grisly images and pervasive language.” The ratings site also listed Saban Films as its distributor which might mean that Constantin Film will soon announce their team-up with Saban Films for a possible late 2020 release.

The friends soon discover they are under a different rule of law, and may not be the victims they thought they were.

No Time to Die: Cary Fukunaga Says Rami Malek’s Safin is Bigger in Scale than Blofeld

In a recent interview with GQ, No Time to Die director Cary Joji Fukunaga opened up about the long-delayed Bond film’s villain Safin, revealing that Rami Malek’s mysterious character will be more dangerous and grander in scale compared to Christopher Waltz’s Blofeld in Spectre. Malek also described Safin as an unexpected antagonist for an action spy film because he is the type of villain that viewers would likely expect to see in horror thrillers.

“Once we got into Christoph Waltz/Blofeld territory, you can’t go small again,” Fukunaga said. “We had to think bigger. It’s tricky because you don’t want to make a cliché super villain, but you have to make someone that’s threatening not only to Bond and the people he loves but to the world at large.”

“(For Safin) I think about what would truly frighten us, what would send a real panic into our hearts. It’s that sense of dread that sets it apart,” Malek added.

In addition, the Oscar-winning actor also got the chance to address the popular fan theory that his character might be a new version of classic Bond villain Dr. No. Malek teased by neither confirming nor denying the rumor, “Yes. That’s interesting. I’m not going to bite on that, but I do think it’s interesting. They’ll just have to wait and see.”

Confirmed cast members returning for the film include Daniel Craig reprising his iconic role as James Bond for the last time, Ralph Fiennes as M, Lea Seydoux (Spectre), Naomie Harris as Moneypenny, Ben Whishaw as A, with Rory Kinnear as Tanner and Jeffrey Wright as Felix Leiter. New cast members confirmed for the film include Dali Benssalah, Billy Magnussen, Ana De Armas, David Dencik, Lashana Lynch, and Rami Malek.

Cary Joji Fukunaga (True Detective) directs No Time to Die from a script written by Neal Purvis & Robert Wade, Scott Z. Burns with Fukunaga and Emmy winner Phoebe Waller-Bridge (Fleabag, Killing Eve).

Ray Porter Hopes to Play Darkseid in Future Films

We’re still a long ways off from seeing Zack Snyder’s Justice League, but there already exists speculation about Zack Snyder’s Justice League Part II. Well, Ray Porter, who plays Darkseid in Snyder’s cut, has stoked the flames somewhat during an interview with Greek House Show in which the actor expressed his desire to return as the series’ big bad in future films.

RELATED: Jared Leto Returning to Play Joker in Zack Snyder’s Justice League

“I hope so. I would like that,” Porter said when asked if he will come back. “I would love to see that, and obviously I would hope that whoever does that will have me along for the ride. Yeah, I would love to see a continuation of it. And honestly, I personally would love to see a continuation of Zack’s story. So yes, I really hope so. That would be great. I’ve not heard anything about it, but you know. Hope.”

There are quite a few ways to read this quote. We can deduce that the upcoming Justice League is indeed a one off that will, for whatever reason, tease future movies via cool cameos for heroes such as Green Lantern and Martian Manhunter, kill off Steppenwolf and end with the members of the newly formed Justice League staring down Darkseid via a Boom Tube — an ending that would seem relatively anticlimactic without a follow up. Or, the man just dropped a massive hint that there is indeed plenty of story left to tell and Zack Snyder’s Justice League is merely a setup to Snyder’s planned universe.

Or, maybe he doesn’t know a damned thing. Either way, it’s fun to speculate.

Fueled by the hero’s restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman’s selfless act, Justice League sees Bruce Wayne enlist the help of his newfound ally, Diana Prince, to face an even greater enemy. Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to find and recruit a team of metahumans to stand against this newly awakened threat. But despite the formation of this unprecedented league of heroes—Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg, and The Flash—it may already be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions.

Justice League, which features a screenplay from Chris Terrio from a story by Snyder and Terrio, stars Ben Affleck as Batman, Henry Cavill as Superman, Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, Jason Momoa as Aquaman, Ezra Miller as The Flash, Ray Fisher as Cyborg, Willem Dafoe as Nuidis Vulko, Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor, Jeremy Irons as Alfred Pennyworth, Diane Lane as Martha Kent, Connie Nielsen as Queen Hippolyta, with J.K. Simmons as Commissioner Gordon, and Amy Adams as Lois Lane.

It was revealed at DC FanDome that the movie will release on HBO Max in 2021 by being broken up into four one-hour parts that will also be released as one four-hour film.

Released in November 2017, the film earned mixed reviews from critics and audiences alike, praising the action and performances from Gadot and Miller while criticizing every other aspect of the film, namely the inconsistent tone that many fault Joss Whedon (The Avengers) for after taking over directorial duties from Snyder. With a large budget of $300 million and a break-even point of $750 million, the film is considered a box office bomb having grossed only $658 million.

Harrison Ford Pays Tribute to Sean Connery

On Saturday it was learned that the great Sean Connery had passed away at the age of 90. The actor left behind an incredible film legacy in which he played iconic heroes such as James Bond and Jimmy Malone. Yet, perhaps his greatest performance came in 1989 when he was paired alongside Harrison Ford in Steven Spielberg’s Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade as the stern (but lovable) Professor Henry Jones, Sr. It’s only fitting that his onscreen son would pay tribute to Connery via a simple memory.

RELATED: James Bond Star Sean Connery Dead at Age 90

“He was my father…not in life…but in ‘Indy 3,’” Ford said in a statement to Variety. “You don’t know pleasure until someone pays you to take Sean Connery for a ride in the side car of a Russian motorcycle bouncing along a bumpy, twisty mountain trail and getting to watch him squirm. God, we had fun — if he’s in heaven, I hope they have golf courses. Rest in peace, dear friend.”

It’s crazy to think Indy’s last “true” adventure arrived in theaters over 30 years ago. And it’s even crazier to think Connery was only 59 years old playing Henry Jones. Ford is now nearly 20 years older and expected to suit up as Henry Jones, Jr. one last time. Ah, how time flies.
