The project is an adaptation of the fictionalized book and account of the same name regarding Einar Wegener/Lili Elbe, who in 1931 received the first official sex change operation....

Olivia Thirlby To Star In Timur Bekmambetov-Produced Alien Invasion Movie The Darkest Hour By Peter Sciretta/April 5, 2010 8:17 pm EST Many people I’ve talked to believed this now-23-year-old actress had the potential to be Hollywood’s next big thing (and I too was on the bandwagon). And not for a lack of trying, Thirlby was called in to audition for a role in George Miller’s scrapped Justice League movie and the role of Trixie in The Wachowski Brothers’ Speed Racer....

Shot in Austin, Texas, Goliath is a film, a comedy at that, about a cat and one man’s search for said cat. When the man got divorced, he got the cat, so he wants to find the cat.

Apparently Tarantino had shelves a huge subplot involving African-American soldiers stuck behind enemy lines, which he hopes to make that part of a prequel, that is, if the first film is popular....

Check out a scan of the photo to the right [via: shh]. Click on the photo to enlarge. It looks a lot more high tech and streamlined, which makes sense since this is essentially Batman: Year Two. I just wonder how much more advanced the suit will become in the inevitable third film....

What Happened To Brad Bird S 1906

What Happened To Brad Bird’s 1906? By Russ Fischer/Jan. 27, 2010 9:52 am EST News that Brad Bird might direct his first live-action film started to bubble up three years ago. The movie is 1906, an account of the San Francisco earthquake as recounted in James Dalessandro’s novel of the same name. It’s been quite some time since we heard anything at all about the film. Last update from Bird, director of The Iron Giant, The Incredibles and Ratatouille, was that he was still working on the script, possibly trying to scale it down from $200m status after suits at Warner Bros....

There’s really not much spoiled by the new outline, but if you’re particularly keen to go into this movie knowing as little as possible, you may prefer to stick with the previous, less detailed synopsis, or perhaps just avoid them both outright....

If it’s anything like my years following Whedon alum, their involvement in future projects should at least be an indication that it’s worth paying attention to (though I’ll admit this doesn’t always work out, see Drive)....

Instead of it being King Kong, it appears that Donkey Kong has escaped the elevator stage which is hidden inside that big skyscraper. Steve Wiebe must have somehow made it past the kill screen. Don’t worry Mario will save you the Princess, and Link is shooting arrows from the ground....
