A scooper with a cameraphone has sent in these two posters for Black Snake Moan, the new film from Craig Brewer, the director of Hustle & Flow. The trailer was supposedly attached to Snakes on a Plane last night, but the only thing I have heard from those screenings was how great the movie was … Continue reading
Universal is making a big-budget action flick based on the comic series Wanted, and who better to lead the cast as a superpowered assassin than… um, the guy who played the forest-dwelling goat-man in The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe? James McAvoy ditches his horns and hooves for twin pistols in the adaptation of … Continue reading
