listos los warriors Three para su debut cinematografico

Los grandes compañeros Asgardianos de Thor, Fandral, Hogun y Volstagg que usualmente aparecen juntos e incluso han formado el grupo Warriors Three, tambien aparecerán en la pantalla grande, con la venidera película de Thor en el 2011.

Fandral será interpretado por Stuart Townsend, a quien recordamos por su papel de Dorian Gray en la película League of Extraordinary Gentlemen,   asi como Hogun será  Tadanobu Asano (Zatoichi, 2003) y Volstagg correrá a cargo de Ray Stevenson ( Punisher War Zone, Cirque du Freak y la serie de televisión Rome.)

A pesar de la extensa y variada multitud de carteles aparecidos de The Book of Eli, sus responsables siguen sacando nuevos a la red. El punto en común de todos ellos sigue siendo la exaltación de Denzel Washington, protagonista absoluto de este thriller post-apocalítico a pesar de nombres como el de Gary Oldman (el único que al parecer resiste comparaciones, según los carteles) Mila Kunis, Michael Gambon o Ray Stevenson. Eli / Washington es en la película un duro caminante que porta un libro que alberga la respuesta para salvar a una humanidad en total decadencia tras un apocalipsis de, por el momento, causas desconocidas.

Kat Dennings

From AceShowBiz.com

Spilling the news is the depicter of Thor’s first love Jane Foster, Natalie Portman, when expressing her excitement to work with Kat Dennings in the upcoming action fantasy movie.

Following several actors who have been previously confirmed to join “Thor”, Kat Dennings also has a part in the film. The news was first spilled by the film’s star Natalie Portman when she was interviewed by MTV Splash Page. “Well I’m really excited. Kat Dennings is going to be in it with me and she’s a good friend and an amazing actress, so I’m looking forward to that,” the depicter of Thor’s first love Jane Foster said.

Dennings’ inclusion in the cast ensemble for the film was later confirmed by The Hollywood Reporter. However, there has been no word on what character that will be played by the 23-year-old beauty as the site claimed Marvel Studio keeps a closed lid on her role.

Dennings is perhaps best known for her role as Norah Silverberg in “Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist”, which aided her to receive nomination as Breakthrough Performance Female at 2009 MTV Movie Awards. She previously also appeared in 2006 film “Big Momma’s House 2″ starring Martin Lawrence. She can next be seen in superhero film “Defendor”, which is slated for a 2009 release.

Tadanobu Asano, Ray Stevenson and Stuart Townsend

Prior to Kat Dennings, “Queen of the Damned” star Stuart Townsend, “King Arthur” star Ray Stevenson, and Japanese actor Tadanobu Asano have been tapped to be The Warriors Three, which is made up of Fandral, Hogun, and Volstagg. Joining the trio is “The Office” actor Idris Elba, who is set to portray Heimdell, the Guardian of Asgard in the upcoming adventure film.

Adapted from Marvel comics, “Thor” is an epic adventure that spans the Marvel Universe from present day Earth to the realm of Asgard. The story centers on Chris Hemsworth’s Thor, a powerful but arrogant warrior, who is cast down to Earth and forced to live among humans after his reckless actions reignite an ancient war. He later learns what it takes to be a true hero when the most dangerous villain of his world sends the darkest forces of Asgard to invade Earth. Paramount Pictures eyes a May 20, 2011 release date for the film.

An orphan from the tough streets of Cleveland, Irish Danny Greene (Ray Stevenson) rises from working longshoreman to union leader to mob ally. Forced out of the union by the feds, Danny starts anew as an enforcer for loan shark Shondor Bims (Christopher Walken), while still maintaining influence with mafia boss John Nardi (Vincent D’Onofrio).

With Detective Joe Manditski (Val Kilmer) in pursuit, Danny rapidly acquires his own power and places himself at odds with the Italians, who find him to be a very difficult man to kill. What follows is a bloody war that breaks out on the streets of Cleveland and gives it the name “Bomb City, U.S.A.”

Based on a true story, The Irishman is the saga of one man who embodied the Irish warrior mentality with a mixture of pride, brutality, ambition, and principle, as became a central figure in the 70s mob war that forever changed organized crime in America.

Directed by Jonathan Hensleigh (The Punisher, 2004)

…und ich bin nur bedingt zufrieden.

Chris Hemsworth kann ich mir schon mal schwer als Thor vorstellen. Er ist mir einfach viel zu jung und wirkt auch nicht so ernst wie Thor. Seh ich ähnlich kritisch wie den Typen der Gambit gespielt hat (und Gambit hat mir in Wolverine nicht gefallen) Aber immerhin wird er bei dem weiblichen Mainstream-Publikum punkten…

Tom Hiddleston als Loki find ich hingegen genial. Ich glaub der hat zwar bis jetzt nur TV-Rollen gehabt (zumindest hab ich ihn noch nie in einem Film gesehen) aber der hat schon dieses knöcherne und verschlagene Aussehen das ein Loki braucht.

Ja, ich glaube dass wir uns hier alle einig sein werden, dass Anthony Hopkins Verpflichtung als Odin den Film natürlich ungeheuer aufwertet und der Knüller schlechthin ist.

Natalie Portman als Jane Foster geht ebenfalls in Ordnung.

“Oh mein Gott! Ein Schwarzer spielt einen Weißen” Neee, Idris Elba als Heimdall ist fabelhaft gewählt. Seht euch mal seinen Blick an…

Na versoffen sieht Ray Stevenson schon aus, aber wird der Volstagg jetzt wirklich ausgestopft und 2/3 seines Gesichtes mit nem Bart verdeckt? Kann mir das gar nicht vorstellen.

Tadanobu Asano als Hogun. Gibts da was zu meckern? Glaub nicht…

Bei Stuart Townsend als Fandral habe ich halt wieder den Einwand dass er zu jung ist. Aber hier kann man wenigstens mit nem Bart noch was kaschieren…

NaJa, auch wenn mir Thor und seine Kumpels viel zu jung gecastet wurden, muss man sagen, dass es viel schlimmer hätte werden können.

Esta semana los actores Idris Elba (The Wire, The Losers, en la fotografía), Ray Stevenson (Roma, Punisher War Zone), Stuart Townsend (Battle in Seattle) y Tadanobu Asano (Mongol) han pasado a formar parte del elenco de Thor, adaptación del cómic Marvel que dirige Kenneth Branagh. El cineasta no puede tener queja de un elenco en cuya elección ha participado de forma determinante. Anteriormente ya se había anunciado que contaría con Chris Hemsworth, Tom Hiddleston, Natalie Portman, Anthony Hopkins, Jaimie Alexander, Colm Feore y Samuel L. Jackson en su proyecto. El rodaje de la superproducción comenzará a mediados de Enero, teniendo la mente puesta en el 20 de Mayo de 2.011, día en el que se ha marcado su estreno.

Idris Elba is cool. That’s all you need to know. He was the ex-SAS bloke in the UK show Ultraviolet that saw him taking down Vampires, or leeches as he called them. Stateside you will know him mainly from The Wire. Plus he got to snog Beyonce in Obsessed. He is currently working on The Losers which is an adaption of the excellent DC Comic about special forces types on the run.

It looks as if he is on a comic book roll as Heat Vision have the news he has been cast in Marvel Studio’s Thor movie – not as a human character, but as the Asgardian known as Heimdall.

In the comic Heimdall is the brother of the warrior Sif. He is the all-seeing and all-hearing guardian sentry of Asgard, he stands on the rainbow bridge, Bifrost and stands watch for any attacks to Asgard. For ages, he stood as the guardian of Asgard, defending the city’s gates from any intruders, and was one of the most trusted servants of Odin.

He has also had a few battles with Thor in the comics either stopping him entering or leaving Asgard so I could well imagine we’ll see something like that in the film.

The movie follows Thor (Chris Hemsworth) a Norse God banished to Earth for his arrogance and reckless behavior in the Asgard, the capital city of the Norse Gods. On Earth, he falls in love with a nurse named Jane Foster (Natalie Portman), but must become a true hero when his sinister brother Loki (Tom Hiddleston) brings the darkest forces of Asgard to wreak destruction on humanity. Directed by Kenneth Branagh (Hamlet), the film co-stars Anthony Hopkins, Stellan Skarsgård, Dominic Cooper, Jaimie Alexander, Colm Feore, Stuart Townsend, Ray Stevenson, and Tadanobu Asano.

It is shaping up to be an amazing cast.

A participação dos Três Guerreiros no filme do Thor está confirmada e o personagens já tem seus intérpretes no cinema, a informação foi divulgada no site da Variety. Os Três Guerreiros são fiéis companheiros do Deus do Trovão em suas aventuras.

Stuart Townsend (Aeon Flox) ficou com o papel de Fandral, o Galante, o ator Dominic Cooper também estava cotado para o papel. Towsend é mais conhecido por ser namorado da atriz Charlize Theron do que pelo seus trabalhos, pelo menos ele parece com o personagem.

Ray Stevenson que interpretou recentemente o Justiceiro no fraquissímo filme Punisher: War Zone, interpretará Volstagg, O Volumoso. O ator terá que engordar um pouco para o papel, mas nada que uma boa equipe  maquiagem não resolva
Já o ator Tadanobu Asano que está sendo muito elogiado pelo filme O Guerreiro Genghis Khan, será Hogun, O Severo. Com certeza o ator foi a melhor escolha do trio, além de parecer fisicamente com o personagem, Asano é um bom ator.

A história passará do reino de Asgard aos tempos atuais, conheceremos Thor, um poderoso e arrogante guerreiro cujas ações intempestivas despertam uma guerra antiga. Castigado pelos deuses Thor é enviado à Terra e forçado a viver entre os mortais. Aqui ele aprende o real significado de ser um verdadeiro herói, depois que o seu maior vilão envia as forças negras de Asgard para invadir a Terra.

O elenco além de Chris Hemsworth como Thor, Tom Hiddleston como Loki, Natalie Portman no papel de Jane Foster, Jaimie Alexander como Sif e Colm Feore.

Com direção de Kenneth Branagh e roteiro de Mark Protosevich. Thor estreia em 20 de maio de 2011.

Kenneth Brannah is directing Thor and has cast Stuart Townsen, Ray Stevenson, and Tadanobu Asano to play The Warriors Three, a trio of Asgardian adventurers who fight with Thor. Also cast is Natalie Portman as Jane Foster and Anthony Hopkins as Odin.

Golden Globes will have 5 films nominated for best animated feature this year. They changed their rules to read: “Eligible films must be feature-length (70 minutes or longer) with no more than 25% live action. If less than eight animated films qualify, the award will not be given, in which case the films would be eligible for Best Picture. If less than twelve animated films qualify, the category will be limited to three nominations per year.”

So I guess films like Avatar may not qualify. But I have a question: Are there really 5 feature-length animated films that are worthy of being nominated this year? I don’t think so.

New Images from Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland! I think this will be one film worth seeing in 3D. I imagine it will be quite trippy…

I’m not sure about the Mad Hatter’s look. It’s a little too creepy and weird. Nice caterpillar, though.

The queens look cool. The Queen of Hearts having an over sized head will be weird. Is it a reference to the characters on cards? Do they sometimes have big heads?

The Cheshire Cat’s smile is awesome. And I think I’m scared of Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum.

O elenco da produção Thor segue crescendo. De acordo com o Collider, Stuart Townsend ( A Liga Extraordinária), Ray Stevenson (Punisher: Zona de Guerra) e Tadanobu Asano ( Mongol” estão se juntando ao elenco da mitologia nórdica da Marvel baseado em adaptação de quadrinhos. Os três formarão ‘Os três guerreiros’ um trio de amigos de Thor criado  para os quadrinhos na década de 60.

Townsend, que jogou o imortal Dorian Gray na Liga Extraordinária deve ser Fandral. Stevenson aparentemente será Volstagg e Asano, que já foi o jovem Genghis Khan em Mongol, fecha o trio como Hogun.

“Thor”, estrelado por Chris Hemsworth, como o deus nórdico, será dirigido por  Kenneth Branagh. As filmagens começam em janeiro deste ano. Anthony Hopkins, Natalie Portman, Jaimie Alexander, Stellan Skarsgard e Colm Feore também fazem parte do elenco.

Até o momento o que se sabe sobre o roteiro do filme é que  o deus nórdico do trovão será banido para viver na Terra entre os mortais e passará a protegê-los.

The ranks of Asgard are just about full! Marvel Studios reports that the Warriors Three will be joining Thor in all of his frosty battles, and as usual, Kenneth Branagh has done a bang up job with the casting. Stuart Townsend, Tadanobu Asano, and Ray Stevenson have joined the cast as Fandral, Hogun, and Volstagg, respectively.

'Thor' Finds His Warriors Three!

The official announcement comes on the heels of Zachary Levi revealing to USA Weekend that he had been cast as Fandral, but was forced to drop out due to an extended Chuck workload. While I feel for Levi, I’m actually very pleased that Townsend has stepped in, as I find him to be a bit more Errol Flynnish than Levi. (Though pulling up his Google Images reveals a guy who looks a lot more dashing than Chuck Bartowski. Wow. I might have to eat my words on that.) I’m anxious to see the once-and-never Aragorn get another shot at the fantasy genre, and prove himself to be dashing.

I’m not familiar with Asano’s work beyond Mongol, but he turned in a very charismatic performance, and I’m always thrilled to see casting directors look to countries other than Northern Europe. But my heart really couldn’t beat any faster than it is at Stevenson’s casting. He’ll be perfect, and it’s awesome to see him get another shot at the Marvel Universe since it doesn’t look like we’ll ever see him return as Frank Castle. Filming begins in January 2010, and from there it’ll just be one big geeky countdown.

El Variety nos cuenta de que Marvel Studios y el director Kenneth Branagh han elegido a Stuart Townsend, Ray Stevenson, y Tadanobu Asano para que representen el trío de unos aventureros Asgardianos que pelearan al lado del dios Noruego llamados “Los tres guerreros”. El mismo Variety removió el artículo hace rato, llevandonos a creer que esta información estaba programada para que saliera en la semana.

Si lo que publicaron es cierto, se unirían al cast que ya incluye a Chris Hemsworth, Tom Hiddleston, Natalie Portman, Anthony Hopkins, Jaimie Alexander, Colm Feore, Samuel L. Jackson y Stellan Skarsgard.

La producción comenzará en el mes de Enero para que tenga una fecha de estreno tentativa el 20 de mayo del 2011.

Big news on Kenneth Branagh’s Thor is that the Warriors Three have been cast. None of them are Jude Law, Dominic West or Robert De Niro.

Instead the word on the street is that that Ray Stevenson (Punisher: War Zone, Rome), Stuart Townsend (League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Queen of the Damned) and Tadanobu Asano (Mongol) are to play the trio. Apparently, Stevenson will take on the role of “Volstagg the Valiant”, Asano will be “Hogun the Grim”, and Townsend will portray “Fandral the Dashing”.

Now this news has come from Variety, but every link I follow on other sites takes me to a dead page on Variety and looking at the list of movie news on their site I just can’t see it listed. It is probably just me being a bit blind today. I am assuming it was on their, but has since been removed. If that is the case then that could mean the news isn’t true or someone has messed up somewhere down the line.

I thought I would share the news anyway. It doesn’t quite ring true to me though as none of these actors have been linked to the film before now. Although Stevenson would be great (I am assuming Volstaag won’t be as big as he often is in the comic) and Asano already looks like Hogun, I feel the week link is Townsend. Just a personal thing, but he doesn’t cut it for me. He was naff as Dorian Gray in the naff LXG and he was down to play Aragorn in The Lord of the Rings but after a few days shooting he was replaced.

There you have it some news which may not actually be correct (hopefully Variety will sort it out), but it may be. Who knows!

UPDATE: Marvel is now confirming the casting – “Fandral will be played by Stuart Townsend. The job of Hogun goes to Tadanobu Asano. And Volstagg will be portrayed Ray Stevenson.”

What do you think of the casting? If not them who would be better in the roles?

Yeah, I thought that headline might grab your attention. It’s been over a week since Halloween, and I still haven’t blogged about what I watched that night. Usually, for me, Halloween is a time for getting reacquainted with an old favorite, like the holiday’s namesake from 1978. The evening’s viewing, whatever it may be, functions a bit like a security blanket. Comfortable. Dependable. Guaranteed to please. Only this year, I did something different. I unwrapped the crinkly cellophane from the jewel case and popped a movie that I’d never seen before into the player—a movie that’s like a cross between Predator and The Fog.

Behind you!

Outpost is an ambitious little British title from 2008, about an international cadre of mercenaries in some unnamed Eastern Europe warzone. Ray Stevenson, fresh from Rome, is the steely leader of the bunch. Julian Wadham, meanwhile, plays the shifty engineer who hired them. Ostensibly, he’s looking for minerals. Actually, he’s looking for an old SS bunker—on behalf of some shady and very wealthy backers, naturally. The bunker houses a wartime experiment designed to produce invulnerable soldiers, and when the ragtag mercenaries find it, messy deaths follow.

And you!

I enjoyed Outpost very much, due in no small part to the impressively dank set design and lighting. The story doesn’t stand up to too much scrutiny, though. For one thing, the bunker seems to be located a short walk from a well-maintained country road. In all the years since 1945, no one stumbled across it and disturbed the ethereal Nazis who reside in the area? And the ending, in which the survivors decide to draw the undead troops into the bunker, makes no sense, since we’ve seen the specters in the grimy halls and quarters many times already. But these are minor quibbles if the viewer, like me, is just looking for some decent, well-made entertainment. With an orchestral score, no less. How often do you hear that in a low budget horror movie?

The undead Nazis come out to play.

The characters are underwritten at the expense of story progression, but the acting is solid. And all the actors are British, which came as a surprise—Brett Fancy and Enoch Frost, playing Russian and African respectively, are quite convincing. And while the hulking Stevenson is an effective central presence, Paul Blair’s Jordan, the only soldier who dares to occasionally drop the tough guy act, makes a bigger impression. Thankfully, he makes it to the end …  almost. Jordan also has the creepiest scene I’ve seen in ages, when he goes, all alone, to check out a room full of German corpses. They are dead, right? Hey, get your mitts on Outpost and see for yourself. It’s got the OP-dEaD blood-spattered seal of approval.

Å se folk få et stolbein kjørt inn i øyet med stor kraft, i full HD, er jo artig. Synd filmen ikke er det.

Filmen, som ikke har noe med det andre Punisher-makkverket med Thomas Jane, er en spesiell affære. Voldelig sådan, dog det dukker opp litt dialog innimellom – for de som liker slikt. Coveret lovte meg ganske mye. Deriblant stjerner. Men de biter over for mye, en rolle i Rome og en b-grøsser ikke er nok til at man blir en stjerne på noe som helst måte. Spesielt når karakterene stort sett er klin like. Harde guttebamser som er middels smarte og gråter en skvett når det passer seg.

Ray Stevenson spiller altså Frank Castle, hevneren med hodeskalle på brystet. Og en hjelm festet på hodet, som til forveksling ligner på hår, vet ikke helt hva stylistene har hatt i tankene. Etter en rimelig klein intro med photoshopfiltre og kraftfull musikk, får vi se karikerte mafianisser og Castles likvidering av disse, i noe som må være den mest latterlige scenen jeg noensinne har sett. Er det en voldskåt 14-åring som har regissert dette dillet? Blod, kniver og kuler flyr, der Castle blant annet henger opp-ned fra en lysekrone mens han spinner rundt, skytende med automatvåpen såklart. I slowmotion. Oppbrukt sier du?

Mer irriterende er det at de later som om det er et dyptpløyende plot med FBI og greier. Pretensiøst piss! I andre filmer med lignende galskap og karaktergalleri later de i det minste ikke som om det er en kunstfilm en Oscar verdig, som Smokin’ Aces og Sin City. Dialogen er merkelig og bærer preg av at skuespillerne er veldig klar over at det de sier er ren idioti. Stevenson spiller sin flateste rolle hittil, og jeg gidder ikke en gang snakke om hovedskurken, som er det mest patetiske forsøket på en erkeskurk noensinne.

Og hvorfor gi dette ut på blu-ray? Når de fleste scenene er filmet med et mystisk, mørkt og ‘grådig kult lizzåm’-filter, slik at du kan se hvert jævla korn på din HDTV, hvorfor gjør dere dette mot oss? Vi vil se skjeggstubbene til Castle og telle dem, ikke støv med grønn fargetone.

On Friday, October 23rd parts of Broadway between 25th and 26th Streets were closed off to shoot scenes from Columbia Pictures’ “The Other Guys. “

We got a few shots of Dwayne Johnson, aka “The Rock” and Samuel L. Jackson on the Street during takes.

The movie, directed by Adam McKay, is scheduled for release in August of 2010. The movie also stars Mark Wahlberg, Will Ferrell, Eva Mendes, Michael Keaton, Ray Stevenson, Damon Wayans Jr., Craig Robinson, and Rob Riggle to name a few.

Here’s a few shots and a short movie of the late afternoon filming:

I’ve never read the books but if one were to take this movie at face value and take into consideration that the story is a mash-up of not one but THREE! of the novels then the only thing one would assume is that the series is well, trash. (Can’t possibly as bad as this movie adaptation, I’m sure.)

don't waste your time.

This was the most booooring, limp, bland, completely devoid of any joy/fun movie I’ve seen in a while.  The lead boy reminded of Ashton Kutcher playing Kelso on “That 70s Show” but even more bland and without the quirks.  John C. Reilly works hard, hard, to try to inject some life into this but there’s just no use.  He’s the only good thing in this, him and the spider, the spider! It was unbelievably long and badly, badly paced.  There’s so many well-known actors in the cast and they are all sorely misused.  Pointless.  Grade: D-
