Fantastic Mr. Fox Poster
The poster for Wes Anderson’s “Fantastic Mr. Fox” is now online. The stop-motion animated film, based on the classic Roald Dahl book of the same name, features the voice talent of George Clooney, Cate Blanchett, Meryl Streep, Bill Murray, Willem Dafoe, Jason Schwartzman, Helen McCrory, Owen Wilson, Adrien Brody and Brian Cox.
Synopsis: “Boggis and Bunce and Bean, One short, one fat, one lean. These horrible crooks, so different in looks, were nonetheless equally mean.”
Mr. Fox, Mrs. Fox, and all their fox babies live under a hill under a tree, along with Badger, Rabbit, Weasel, and all of their families. To make ends meet, every night, Mr. Fox steals a meal from one of the three crooked farmers–Boggis, a chicken farmer, Bunce, who has a little bit of everything but only eats duck liver, and Bean, who farms turkeys and apples and subsists solely on apple cider. With his keen sense of smell, and the farmers’ distinctive diets, Mr. Fox has no problem evading them.
Allan Doyle, Kevin Durand and Scott Grimes Are Robin Hood’s Merry Men
Ridley Scott has recruited Alan Doyle (lead singer of Great Big Sea), Kevin Durand (”Lost”, The Blob in the upcoming “X-Men Origins: Wolverine”) and Scott Grimes (”ER”) to play three of Robin Hood’s Merry Men in the now untitled Hood pic that stars Russell Crowe.
Crowe toplines the movie, which is a retelling of the origins of the key characters of the Robin Hood legend. Cate Blanchett is on board as Maid Marian.
Grimes would play Will Scarlett, a skilled swordsman and Hood’s nephew, Durand is Little John, Hood’s right-hand man and Doyle is Alan a Dayle, who in lore was a roving minstrel and needed help when his love was being forced to marry another man.
Cate Blanchett As Maid Marian in Ridley Scott’s “Nottingham”?
Mark Strong revealed that Ridley Scott’s “Nottingham” will finally begin filming this Spring. He then confirmed that Sienna Miller will no longer play Maid Marian, but refused to reveal her replacement. “I’ve heard rumors but I can’t tell you. I’ll get in trouble,” he said.
Now, “Nottingham” appears close to getting back on track with the news that Cate Blanchett is in talks to play Maid Marian opposite Russell Crowe as Robin Hood.
“I think Cate Blanchett is set to take the Maid Marian part. She is a wonderful actress and it would make it a much classier film if she was in it,” Strong, who will play Guy of Gisbourne in the Robin Hood tale told The Telegraph.
“We’ve been waiting all last year but it’s pretty much ready to go at the end of March beginning of April,” he said.
According to rumors, filming was further delayed to allow star Russell Crowe to lose enough weight.
Strong added that the script has also changed since its beginning.
“There was an identity swap between the Sheriff of Nottingham and Robin. This has slightly changed now,” he explained. “There is a case of mistaken identity but it’s more (about) Russell’s Robin, than the Sheriff.”
