I have been without a computer for about a week now so I was unable to update anything (evil things!), it seems there was no major news while I was ‘away’ so I don’t have much catching up to do except some other updates I’ll get to this week. Anyways The first still for Fifty Dead Men Walking was found, by Paula so I’ve added that to the gallery.
I’d also like to mention if you have not seen it, the fellow Jim Sturgess fansite, JimSturgess.org recently got confirmation Jim received their birthday gift (a scrapbook), so be sure to check out his very sweet reply and picture he sent. It was incredibly kind so congrats to all of them I know they must be ecstatic!
ComingSoon.net has your first look at the insanely awesome teaser poster for Heartless! The movie begins principal photography in London and The Isle of Man on June 8th, 2008. I can’t wait for this one!
Heartless centers on a young man (Sturgess) who is tricked into a deal with a demon and then must fight to save his soul. Framestore-CFC who recently won both the OSCAR and the BAFTA for their VFX in The Golden Compass, will design the mythical creatures that appear in the movie.
I am really busy right now, as I’ve re-opened my design site so my time is very limited and that’s why I’m not updating as much as I have been these past few days, anyways It seems news has slowed once more so I only have a small update for today. I’ve added some images from some of Jim’s projects, thanks to Riikka and Johnny. Check them out!
“I very nearly lost my mind,” admitted Across the Universe star Jim Sturgess about staying in Las Vegas for over a month to shoot 21, his latest film.
Jim, who won fans as the lead in the Beatles music-inspired Across, plays one of the M.I.T. (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) students who are recruited by an unorthodox math professor (Kevin Spacey) to make millions of dollars at blackjack tables in Las Vegas casinos.
The high stakes action-adventure, directed by Robert Luketic (Legally Blonde, Monster-in-Law), is based on Ben Mezrich’s Bringing Down the House, which reveals how a real-life team of gifted college students beat casinos in Vegas and elsewhere around the world by counting cards and using an elaborate system of signals.
Jim gave an interview to Empire Online the day of the Heartless photocall. You can stream it here. He and Clémence Poésy talk all about Heartless in it, Jim mentions the Spider-Man musical once again as well. I’ve made captures for the gallery.
Also, as reported earlier, I told you Fifty Dead Men Walking was being marketed at Cannes and the other day we have learned the film has gotten a distribution deal with company Handmade. The agreements states it will have major theatrical distributors throughout the world so hopefully this means the film will not only premiere in the UK later this year but other countries as well. The financial details of the deal were not disclosed.
