Natalie Portman might play Jackie Onassis in a new biopic

Saturday, September 29th, 2012

Natalie Portman seems pretty far removed from her Oscar winning turn in THE BLACK SWAN, but the talented young actress seems to be attaching herself to more Oscar worthy films these days.  Recently, we learned that Natalie Portman is circling a role in THE GARDEN OF BEASTS with Tom hanks.  And now, she’s taking a [...]

Russell Crowe looks scraggly in new photo from Darren Aronofsky’s Noah

Friday, August 10th, 2012

Considering the Darren Aronofsky biblical epic NOAH isn’t set to hit theaters until next spring, it’s a bit surprising that we’re already getting a first glance of the title character played by Russell Crowe. No complaining on this end though because we probably won’t get anything else of any substance until December, after that we [...]

Anthony Hopkins will join Russell Crowe and Emma Watson in Darren Aronofsky’s Noah

Monday, July 9th, 2012

The next epic film from Darren Aronofsky (BLACK SWAN) is still gathering together talent as today we learn that Anthony Hopkins has joined. Anthony Hopkins is set to play Methuselah, which those who went to Sunday school will remember was the oldest man mentioned in the Bible. Methuselah also happened to be the grandfather to [...]

Jennifer Connelly may finally join Russell Crowe, Emma Watson and Logan Lerman in Noah

Monday, June 18th, 2012

Jennifer Connelly‘s name has been thrown around for Darren Aronofsky’s (BLACK SWAN) upcoming film NOAH for a couple of months now, but it looks like today she is finally and officially in negotiations to star in the film alongside Russell Crowe, Emma Watson (who I’m guessing is replacing Saoirse Ronan), Logan Lerman, Douglas Booth and [...]

Saoirse Ronan and Jennifer Connelly will join Russell Crowe in Noah

Thursday, April 26th, 2012

There’s been a lot of buzz going around about Darren Aronofsky’s (BLACK SWAN) upcoming project NOAH and it looks like we’re getting a few more casting confirmations. It’s been reported that Saoirse Ronan and Jennifer Connelly will join Russell Crowe in the film.  In case you have been following the movie buzz, Liam Neeson was [...]

Russell Crowe in negotiations to star in Darren Aronofsky’s Noah

Tuesday, February 28th, 2012

Although his star has faded a bit lately, we shouldn’t forget about some of the incredible performances Russell Crowe has given over the years.  THE INSIDER, GLADIATOR and CINDERELLA MAN are great films with great efforts from Crowe.  We as moviegoers are better off when he’s on his game and working with a talented director.  [...]

Russell Crowe and Liam Neeson looking to star in Darren Aronofsky’s Noah

Thursday, February 2nd, 2012

We’ve been reading about Darren Aronofsky’s Biblical epic NOAH for a while now, but when a guy goes from making intense, character driven dramas to trying to put together a major blockbuster (with Biblical undertones, no less), it’s understandable he would have some trouble getting it off the ground.  Although Christian Bale was once attached [...]

Warner Brothers look to Steven Spielberg for Gods and Kings

Wednesday, September 28th, 2011

Posted by: Zack Bruce It’s pretty well known that Steven Spielberg is a hard guy to pin down if you want him to direct a feature for you. If it wasn’t for his relationship with J.J. Abrams, I don’t know if he would have jumped into producing on SUPER 8 if it wasn’t a homage [...]

Darren Aronofsky set to direct pilot for HBO’s Hobgoblin

Friday, June 17th, 2011

Posted by: Zack Bruce Another day, another news story about Darren Aronofsky. While the director continues to shop NOAH, he has signed on to  supernatural World War II HBO series HOBGOBLIN. The series has been in development for months over at the network and is being written by husband and wife team, Michael Chabon and [...]

Fox has chosen James Mangold to direct Hugh Jackman in The Wolverine

Thursday, June 16th, 2011

Posted by: Zack Bruce Ever since Darren Aronofsky dropped out of directing THE WOLVERINE, Fox has been on the hunt for a new helmer to get the ball rolling. Last month, eight possible choices were put on a shortlist: Jose Padilha, Doug Liman, Antoine Fuqua, Mark Romanek, Justin Lin, Gavin O’Connor, James Mangold and Gary [...]

Christian Bale looking to star in Noah for Darren Aronofsky

Tuesday, June 14th, 2011

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant I guess if you’re going to take a chance on a big budget religious epic, it’s a good idea to get a proven A-list actor to help carry your film.  Darren Aronofsky feels the same way, which is why he’s looking at Christian Bale as the lead in his ambitious upcoming [...]

Darren Aronofsky circling Noah’s Ark

Wednesday, June 8th, 2011

Posted by: Zack Bruce There’s been rumors that one of the projects that Darren Aronofsky has been circling is NOAH, an edgy re-telling of Noah’s Ark. Deadline indicates that the circling is getting more serious as the script written by the director is now being shopped around. The script is supposedly getting a rewrite from [...]

Jessica Biel and Pharrell star in Darren Aronofsky’s Revlon ad

Thursday, June 2nd, 2011

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant It’s a very slow news day, so we’ve resorted to showing you makeup commercials.  But this isn’t just any normal commercial, this one is directed by Darren Aronofsky, stars Jessica Biel and features music from Pharrell.  A recipe for success you might be thinking, but it doesn’t quite work.  Pharrell has [...]

George Clooney and Darren Aronofsky looking to team for Human Nature

Tuesday, May 10th, 2011

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant Was anyone else as disappointed as I was when Darren Aronofsky dropped out of the Wolverine sequel?  I was so looking forward to Aronofsky bringing some legitimacy to the Wolverine character that he’s so sorely lacked the past two films.  But alas, it wasn’t meant to be.  However, it looks like [...]

Black Swan (Blu-ray)

Thursday, April 7th, 2011

After watching BLACK SWAN I literally had to sit quietly and breathe as I digested the wonderfully beautiful yet disturbingly twisted story of a ballet dancer spiraling deeper into psychological doom.  Admittedly this film is not for everyone, especially those who are easily squeamish or rattled by dark themes and immodesty but be prepared to [...]

Darren Aronofsky leaves Wolverine 2; Hugh Jackman will stay on

Thursday, March 17th, 2011

Posted by: Kristy Sturdivant Director Darren Aronofsky has decided to back out of the not-yet greenlit film THE WOLVERINE , but Hugh Jackman and 20th Century Fox will push on.

Natalie Portman and Black Swan win big at the Independent Spirit Awards

Sunday, February 27th, 2011

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant Hoping to capitalize on the pre-Oscar craziness and red carpet madness going on, the Independent Spirit Awards announced their winners on Saturday.  Although it’s unlikely BLACK SWAN will have similar success at the Oscars, the filmmakers have to be pleased that they cleaned up on the major categories, taking home awards [...]

Black Swan

Monday, December 13th, 2010

After tackling the physical toll a sport and lifestyle can have on an aging man in THE WRESTLER, Darren Aronofsky has decided to look at what kind of emotional conflict erupts when a young ballet dancer is obsessed with perfection.  Although the events in the film are somewhat straightforward, the internal conflict that goes on [...]

Natalie Portman and Black Swan lead the nominations for the Broadcast Film Critics Association

Monday, December 13th, 2010

Posted by: Kristy Sturdivant Even though it’s been a spectacular year for films with releases like: INCEPTION, TRUE GRIT, THE FIGHTER and THE SOCIAL NETWORK, is it any surprise that Darren Aronofsky’s psycological ballet thriller BLACK SWAN leads the nominations for the Broadcast Film Critic’s Association. Not only did BLACK SWAN lead the nominations, they [...]

Monday, November 15th, 2010

Posted by: Kristy Sturdivant Darren Aronofsky has revealed the title for the second installment in the X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE film, starring Hugh Jackman.   The movie will be called THE WOLVERINE (was that anti-climatic?) and Aronofsky, “referred to the movie as a ‘one-off’, and he emphasized that the film isn’t a sequel in any conventional sense.” [...]

Darren Aronofsky circling X-Men Origins: Wolverine 2 with Hugh Jackman

Wednesday, October 6th, 2010

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant The name Darren Aronofsky and the character Wolverine don’t really seem to go together, but it’s being reported that Fox is in serious talks with the director to tackle the sequel.  If you’re a fan of Aronofsky and you’ve seen some of his movies (THE WRESTLER, REQUIEM FOR A DREAM), then [...]

Posted by: Kristy Sturdivant Film festivals in Venice and Telluride have brought fans forth to see the latest psychological thriller from Darren Aronofsky’s BLACK SWAN, starring Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis, and according to early reports Natalie Portman has knocked the role out of the park.  In fact, her turn as a delicate ballet dancer [...]

Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis in the trailer for Darren Aronofsky’s Black Swan

Tuesday, August 17th, 2010

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant I feel like we’ve heard a lot about Darren Aronofsky’s upcoming film BLACK SWAN for a while, but aside from a few images, we really haven’t seen or heard much about the story.  It seems up until this new trailer, the thing we kept hearing is that Natalie Portman and Mila [...]

Thursday, July 22nd, 2010

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant We saw a few pictures of Natalie Portman on the set of Darren Aronofsky’s BLACK SWAN a few months ago, but today we get the first official images from the film.  In the film, Portman plays a brilliant ballerina who gets cast in the lead role in the New York City [...]

Rachel Weisz set to play Jackie Kennedy for Darren Aronofsky

Wednesday, April 14th, 2010

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant At first, the thought of anyone playing Jackie Kennedy doesn’t seem right.  In history, there are few women that displayed as much grace and beauty as the former Mrs. Kennedy and portraying her on the big screen seems like an impossible task.  But then when I thought more about Rachel Weisz [...]

Angelina Jolie and Darren Aronofsky eyeing Serena

Monday, March 1st, 2010

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant We’ve been wondering what Angelina Jolie would be doing next.  She was supposedly set to star in WANTED 2, but pulled out to do the space film GRAVITY with Alphonso Cuaron.  But then we learned that she passed on that and was left without a project, which is unusual for Jolie; [...]

First Picture of Natalie Portman in Darren Aronofsky’s Black Swan

Monday, December 7th, 2009

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant It’s not the sexiest picture in the world, and definitely not the pic everyone wants of Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis, but here’s a glimpse of Portman on the set of the upcoming Darren Aronofsky film, BLACK SWAN.  In it, Portman and Kunis play rival ballet dancers, while Winona Ryder plays [...]

Winona Ryder Joins Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis in Darren Aronofsky’s Black Swan

Tuesday, November 10th, 2009

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant The film BLACK SWAN is very confusing to me.  On one hand, I think everything Darren Aronofsky touches turns to gold and I love Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis.  But on the other hand, a story about rival ballet dancers with a hint of supernatural thrown in just doesn’t appeal to [...]

Wrestler, The

Friday, November 6th, 2009

Despite what the title would have you believe, this is not a film about wrestling. This is a film about a broken down man that has made a lifetime out of making bad decisions and realized his mistakes just a little too late in life. Darren Arofnosky has crafted another sorrowful tale whose lead character [...]
