After it was announced that Mary Jane Watson would be cut out of "The Amazing Spider-Man 2" and saved for the third installment, Andrew Garfield revealed that he would like the character to be played by Michael B Jordan (Chronicle), adding that it's about time that Spider-Man has a gay relationship. This came up during a recent interview with Spider-Man creator Stan Lee, who responded: "He's becoming bisexual? I don't know anything about that. And if it's true, I'm going to make a couple of phone calls. I figure one sex was enough for everybody." Lee went on to praise Garfield for his work as Spider-Man, revealing that he prefers the actor's performance over Tobey Maguire's. "I think Andy Garfield is great as Spider-Man, absolutely great," he said. "In fact, I would have picked him for the first Spider-Man movie if he had volunteered."...

Gemma Arterton has joined the cast of director Michael Mann‘s Robert Capa biopic.
And what a lucky man Andrew Garfield (The Social Network) is!
Not only he will play in the upcoming Spiderman reboot, but he will also have a chance to portray Capa, Hungarian combat photographer who covered five wars over the course of his career.
Or, let’s take a look at the more detailed story:
“Love, war and photography marked the real-life romance between the war photographers Robert Capa and Gerda Taro during the Spanish Civil War. They were young, anti-Fascist, good-looking, and nonconformist. They had everything in life, and they put everything at risk.
They created their own legend and remained faithful to it until the very end! A young German woman named Gerta Pohorylle and a young Hungarian man named Endre Friedmann meet in Paris in 1935.
Both Communists, Jewish, exiled, and photographers, they decide...

Michael Mann may run behind Guillermo Del Toro in the race for 'most possible projects' but at this point I think he's neck and neck with Lee Daniels for second place. The filmmaker has a number of potential new films [1] in the works in addition to his HBO show Luck: Agincourt, which takes place at the famous battle of the same name, Chicago mobster movie [2] Big Tuna, and, possibly, a new film version of For Whom the Bell Tolls. And then there's Capa, based on the life of war photographer Robert Capa, in particular the short romance he shared with Gerda Taro, also a photographer. Now it seems like Gemma Arterton is set for the latter role, with Andrew Garfield a possible actor to play Mr. Capa. Speaking to Total Film [3] (via The Playlist [4]) Gemma Arterton said " I’m aiming for even more diversity. Capa [biopic about the combat photographer Robert Capa] is confirmed, so I...

According to a recent profile interview in Total Film, Gemma Arterton (Clash of the Titans) will be joining Andrew Garfield (The Social Network) in Michael Mann's Waiting for Robert Capa. This is the first we've heard of any kind of casting for the film, but Arterton seems quite convinced telling the film mag, "I'm aiming for even more diversity.

“It’s not a remake,” states the poster for Hatchet—a declaration that completely misses the point, given how intentionally and determinedly retro the movie is. From start to finish, Hatchet is a love letter to the stalker/gore films of the late ’70s and early ’80s, following the formula to a T—to the point where it could in fact be easily mistaken for a redux of a vintage slice-and-dicer. The movie could have stepped right out a time machine from the heyday of slasher cinema, as writer/director Adam Green has eschewed any attempt to gloss it up or update the subgenre’s themes, and that winds up being both its blessing and its curse.
The setting is New Orleans during Mardi Gras for the first reel or so, before a motley crew of victims-to-be head out for a nighttime “haunted swamp tour” right where a deformed killer named Victor Crowley lurks.
