Kate Winslet and Josh Brolin Starring in ‘Labor Day’

Kate Winslet and Josh Brolin are both likely starring in the upcoming film Labor Day.

Kate Winslet will be set shortly to star in Labor Day, the adaptation of the Joyce Maynard novel that was scripted and will be directed by Jason Reitman…

…a single mother of a young son who takes in a stranger with a dangerous past. She falls in love with him over the course of Labor Day Weekend.

…Josh Brolin’s reps tell me he will be in the movie, too, playing the guy who engages in the weekend affair with Kate Winslet’s character…

This is all early news, hopefully it doesn’t fall through. Sounds like a great duo for this story, not to mention it sounds like a compelling one. I absolutely love Kate Winslet, she’s one of the few actors who I’d watch a movie for the simple fact that she’s in it. Brolin is great too, so this movie has already piqued my curiosity.

Sean Penn, Ryan Gosling and Josh Brolin in Talks For ‘Gangster Squad’

Sean PennRyan Gosling and Josh Brolin are all in talks to star in the upcoming film Gangster Squad.

Warner Bros has begun negotiating with Sean Penn, Ryan Gosling and Josh Brolin to star in Gangster Squad, the Will Beall-scripted crime drama that will be directed by Zombieland helmer Ruben Fleischer. Production will begin in the fall…

…The drama, based on a series of articles by Paul Lieberman, is the fact-based tale of the crime fighting exploits of a squad of elite Los Angeles officers in the 1940s charged with stopping him and other mobsters. Screenwriter Beall is a former South Central Los Angeles cop who wrote the novel L.A. Rex.

Sounds like it has a lot of potential, especially if they get all three of these guys onboard. Zombieland was a great little movie so I’m glad Ruben Fleischer is onboard to direct this one. These guys seem fit for a period piece set in L.A., the city has such a rich history, one that’s often overshadowed by Chicago and New York in film and television.

Jeff Bridges, Josh Brolin & Hailee Steinfeld ‘True Grit’ Berlin Festival Photos

The 61st Berlin International Film Festival held a photo call at the Grand Hyatt Hotel in Berlin, Germany for True Grit with stars Jeff Bridges, Josh Brolin and Hailee Steinfeld.

At the press conference, Bridges acknowledged that he owes 14 year-old Steinfeld quite a bit of money for the cuss jar she instituted when the boys language got out of hand.

Bridges jumped in, telling the room that Steinfeld had actually kept them all in line and had a curse pot for when the other actor’s language got too salty. “I ran a tab with you,” Bridges smiled. “I still owe a lot of money.”

Brolin didn’t miss out either. “She [Steinfeld] made a whole lot more money from that pot than she did from the movie,” he said.

See all the photos below.  (Read the article)

Jonah Hex Image

Here’s the first official image of Josh Brolin from the upcoming film Jonah Hex.

The Jimmy Hayward-directed Jonah Hex opens on June 18 and stars Josh Brolin, John Malkovich, Megan Fox, Will Arnett and Michael Shannon.

This is certainly going to be a different kind of role for Brolin, I’m looking forward to it. With such a large number of comic book movies entering the marketplace, it’s good to see high quality actors like this taking on major roles.

Matt Damon and Josh Brolin Join The Coen’s ‘True Grit’

damonbrolinbridges

Matt Damon and Josh Brolin seem to be joining Jeff Bridges in the upcoming Coen brothers remake True Grit.

Matt Damon and Josh Brolin are in discussions with Joel and Ethan Coen to join Jeff Bridges in “True Grit,” the re-imagining of the iconic 1969 Western that Paramount Pictures will put into production next March for late 2010 release.

The Coens, who previously attached their “Big Lebowski” star Bridges to play U.S. marshal Rooster Cogburn, are in talks with Damon to play the lawman (played by Glen Campbell in the original) who teams with Cogburn and a 14-year old girl to track her father’s killer into hostile Indian territory.

In a turnabout, Brolin is in talks to play the killer. The actor’s recent rise was greatly helped playing the good guy in the Coens’ Oscar-winning contemporary Western “No Country for Old Men.” Jeff Corey played the killer in the original, and Robert Duvall and Dennis Hopper also played outlaws.

Sign me up! This sounds like a really great film already, talk about throwing together a massive pile of talent! I’ll be keeping you posted on the happenings with this Oscar bait flick.

New Woody Allen Film Gets a Title: ‘You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger’

slice_woody_allen_01

Woody Allen’s newest film finally has a title, You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger. The film stars Antonio Banderas, Josh Brolin, Anthony Hopkins, Naomi Watts, Gemma Jones, Lucy Punch, and Freida Pinto.

So today, months after the shoot has ended, it’s news that Woody Allen’s newest movie has a title. You Will Meet A Tall Dark Stranger, which sounds either like a prophecy or a threat, will be coming out in about a year.

It’s strange how long it takes for him to decide on a title to his films. I have no clue what this movie is about, but the cast is enough for my interest to be peaked.
