TUESDAY, JUNE 27
THE FOREIGNER---trailer released for the revenge movie starring Jackie Chan and Pierce Brosnan.
Trailer link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=33iuQu3UtjI
STAR WARS---a rival studio executive commented on Lucasfilm's STAR WARS franchise director problems after directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller were fired and replaced by Ron Howard for the Han Solo movie, Josh Trank was fired from another movie and Tony Gilroy supervised major reshoots of Gareth Edwards' ROGUE ONE, “All of the films have been ‘troubled’. J.J. [Abrams] was powerful enough to push back on an unrealistic start date [for the first movie] but that was a tug of war. The last one was reshot by Tony [Gilroy] for months and now this? This is a systemic problem.”
STAR TREK: DISCOVERY---showrunner Aaron Harberts gave background information on the main character of the new series, Commander Michael Burnham (Sonequa Martin-Green), "Burnham [has] spent a lot of time on Vulcan, but she’s human. Sarek [Spock’s father, played by James Frain] plays an important role in her life, which has been completely planned until she makes a very difficult choice that sends her life on a very different path. When we meet her, she’s the First Officer on the Starship Shenzhou [captained by Philippa Georgiou, played by Michelle Yeoh]. And Burnham’s choice that we’re alluding to is most difficult choice you can make — it affects her, affects Starfleet, affects the Federation, it affects the entire universe. That choice leads her to a different ship, the Discovery [helmed by Captain Lorca, played by Jason Isaacs] and there we begin what Gretchen [showrunner Gretchen Berg] and I call our ‘second pilot.’"
THE PREDATOR---Jake Busey, son of Gary Busey, said he will play the son of his father's character, Special Agent Peter Keyes in PREDATOR 2, “[Shane Black] called me and he said ‘Hey, you wanna do this movie? We don’t have money for you but it’ll be a fun thing to come play and be your father’s son.’ And so as much as I have followed in my Dad’s footsteps career-wise, this is like really following in his footsteps by playing a character who is the son of the character he played. And I don’t think there would be any other forum where I would do that. I think this is the one thing.”
THE X-FILES---Season 11's veteran writing team is Chris Carter, Glen Morgan, Darin Morgan, James Wong, Gabe Rotter, Benjamin Van Allen and Brad Follmer.
CASTLE ROCK---the Hulu Stephen King anthology series has added Jane Levy (DON'T BREATHE) and Sissy Spacek (CARRIE) to its cast. Levy will play Jackie, the town's self-appointed historian. Spacek will play retired professor Ruth Deaver, adoptive mother of death row lawyer Henry Deaver.
Also, Levy will also co-star with Glenn Close in the Amazon zombie pilot SEA OAK.
HINTERLANDS---tv series and short film are underway based on the short story by William Gibson (NEUROMANCER). The plot involves a Russian space station that disappears and reappears years later with its dead crew. Other spaceships traveling to the same location in space suffer similar fates.
HELLBOY: RISE OF THE BLOOD QUEEN---director Neil Marshall (DOG SOLDIERS, THE DESCENT) said he will emphasize practical special effects over CGI and that it will be R-rated, "We’ve been granted permission to do it R-rated, which for me is just like taking the cuffs off. It’s like, okay, so now we can just make the movie we want to make. It’s not like I’m going to force it to be R-rated, but if it happens to come out that way, just because of my own sensibilities, then fine. And nobody’s going to stop us. So, that’s the main [difference]. And I’m sure, obviously, the success of things like DEADPOOL and LOGAN have not hurt that cause. But, also, when you go back the original material, it is kind of bloody, so I’m going to embrace that.”
THE CONJURING 3---the sequel is underway with Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga returning. The plot wasn't disclosed, but it won't involve a family in a haunted house again. James Wan is the co-producer but won't direct.
THE ACCOUNTANT---the sequel is underway with Warner Bros. in talks with Ben Affleck and director Gavin O'Connor to return.

I'm confidant.
This would make an awesome tattoo.

If only any of the Star Wars prequels had been as good as "Willow".

I despise this Franchise. S/W, however, I do like Ron Howard, he should make big money here, I'm glad Ron gets a pay day, he needs it & the exposure, instead of unknown monkey directing it & creaming off its $.
Even the man Mr T***p could direct this, & it still smells of roses, Hamill is finally getting the drift this franchise stinks, but it makes $.
