Darren Aronofsky Is Locked Up For 2 Years At Fox
Remember not too long along when 20th Century Fox seemed like an awful place to try setting up any type of motion picture (with X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE being the prime example of how bad it had gotten over there)…? Well, it must not be so bad over there anymore with director Darren Aronofsky signing a [...]
Wolverine 2 Isn’t Wolverine 2 Any Longer
X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE – THE SEQUEL did seem a little wordy, and WOLVERINE 2 seemed pretty predictable and plain (how’s that for alliteration?), so it shouldn’t be that big of a a surprise that Darren Aronofsky and 20th Century Fox have come up with a new name for the prequel sequel for Hugh Jackman’s return [...]
Hugh Jackman Confirms Wolverine 2′s Director
It’s official. WOLVERINE 2 has a director, and, even though Fox hasn’t made an official announcement confirming the deal, I don’t think you can get more solid information than the words coming out of Wolverine’s mouth. Hugh Jackman has confirmed in an interview with Vulture that Darren Aronofsky is the guy for WOLVERINE 2, and, [...]
Wolverine 2 Is Darren Aronofsky’s Film, If He Wants It
The musical chair of directors continues today, as David Slade (THE TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE) is out of the running for WOLVERINE 2, or at least reduced to the back-up plan in the event that Darren Aronofsky doesn’t want the job. After becoming a , and , Aronofsky has entered into talks with Fox about taking [...]
Darren Aronofsky In The Running To Direct Superman Now, Too
Things are really starting to pick up when it comes to the Man of Steel, as the rumor mill is working overtime churning through the list of potential directors being tossed around to possibly helm the reboot of Superman. Recently, we got a look at a under consideration by the Godfather, Christopher Nolan – Matt [...]
Darren Aronofsky Explains The Collapse Of The Robocop Reboot
The ROBOCOP reboot was one of the big projects MGM was looking to get behind, but because of their financial issues, eventually the weight of that metallic cyborg suit and the budget that came with it was too much for the studio to really back. As they suffer through their woes, the plug was eventually [...]
Darren Aronofsky Enters The Wolverine 2 Director’s Race
Just when you thought Fox was ready to move forward on WOLVERINE 2 with star-producer Hugh Jackman (THE TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE) to be at the helm for the X-Men prequel sequel, another name is brought under consideration and in the running for the job – none other than Darren Aronofsky (THE WRESTLER, BLACK SWAN). According [...]
Darren Aronofsky’s Black Swan Finally Has Something To Show Us, And It’s Intense
It’s easy to label BLACK SWAN as the ballet movie where Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis, but oversimplifying a Darren Aronofsky movie like that would be a big mistake. After all, when has the director ever presented us with a film that sucked… or was even bad, or mediocre, or average? Exactly. THE WRESTLER was [...]
The RoboCop Reboot Looks Pretty Dead
Let’s come right out and say it… ROBOCOP is awesome. There is no getting around the fact that the original 1987 film is a truly bad-ass movie. The idea of a reboot – not so much. However, that didn’t stop from MGM from hiring director Darren Aronofsky to breathe some new life into the franchise [...]
Black Swan Gives You A Peek At Natalie Portman And Mila Kunis
The Kidd may be a sucker for dance movies (still not going to see STEP UP 3-D on general principle), but, when it comes to ballet movies, that’s not my thing. I don’t enjoy ballet, so I’m really not all that interested in seeing a movie that centers around it. That is… unless you tell [...]
