Movie News Today

Jeremy Renner has been offered the lead role in the upcoming "Bourne" movie. I've been kind of down on the Damon-less "Bourne" idea but Renner...that's a pretty awesome replacement.

Likewise, Kate Beckingsale has been offered the Sharon Stone role in the upcoming "Total Recall" remake. Which begs the question, are they beefing this role up or is Kate Beckinsale really down for 10 minutes of screen time? Wait, that's wrong. It begs the question, why do we need a remake of "Total Recall" in the first place?

Vanity Fair provides a profile of deceased filmmaker Tim Heatherington. A fitting send off.

Slow day. That's all I got.

  1. Maybe the producers of Total Recall are hoping that we've all suffered memory erasure and will forget that it's even a remake. :-|

  2. I guess it has been 20+ years since the original and you've got an entire generation of kids who only know Arnie as a 'roided up politician. So maybe it'll work for that group!
