Edward Norton's "Leaves of Grass" Trailer


Now this looks awesome.

Leaves of Grass is basically a pot comedy thriller.
It stars Edward Norton in two roles as identical twins, Susan Sarandon as their mom, and Richard Dreyfuss as a drug lord.

The film is written and directed by Tim Blake Nelson, who you probably know from the Coen Brothers' film O Brother, Where Art Thou?



Here's the official plot synopsis:
“Edward Norton is Bill Kincaid, an Ivy League classics professor, who returns to rural Oklahoma to bury his dangerously brilliant identical twin brother, only to discover that the brother he believes to have been murdered has lured him home to involve him in a doomed plot against a local drug lord. Before Bill can flee, he’s implicated in a murder, and his life has become completely unraveled…”

What do you guys think?

"RED" Cast = Holy Crap


A few of you might remember my posting on the upcoming film Red.

Basically, Summit Entertainment is bringing to life Warren Ellis' graphic novel Red.

As I mentioned before, the film will star Bruce Willis as the main character with Morgan Freeman co-starring.
Well, now you can also add to the lineup Helen Mirren, John C. Reilly, Ernest Borgnine, Richard Dreyfuss, and Brian Cox!
Also joining the cast are Julian McMahon (Nip/Tuck), and Mary Louise Parker (Weeds).

Once again, here is the basic story:
"As a C.I.A. operative, Paul Moses’s unique talent for killing took him around the world, from one hotspot to another, carrying out the deadly orders of his superiors. And when he retired, he wanted to put his bloody past behind him. But when a new administration takes over the White House, the powers that be decide that Moses knows too much, forcing him back into the game against the agency that trained him."
We can't wait for a trailer to see how they'll transfer the comic's unique look to the big screen!
