Paramount Announces Jon M. Chu As G.I. Joe 2 Director
With Michael Bay's sequel to the first Transformers film Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen being panned by numerous critics, many would've assumed that Paramount and Hasbro might've replaced Bay for Transformers 3. Well it seems they'll be giving Bay a second chance to redeem himself, but they haven't been so forgiving with Stephen Sommers for his adaption of the G.I. Joe toyline G.I. Rise of the Cobra. Now Paramount has found a replacement director to hopefully pilot the series into a new direction, and it's none other than young director Jon M. Chu.
New Superman Reboot Casting Rumors Including Viggo Mortensen As Zod!
Now that the leading role of Superman/Clark Kent himself has been casted in Zack Snyder's Superman: Man of Steel, now the rumors have turned to who exactly is going to be the villain of the film, and most importantly who will be playing him. It seems the latest rumor going around is that actor Viggo Mortensen (The Lord of the Rings trilogy, The Road, Eastern Promises) is being eyed for the role of the infamous General Zod in the Superman: Man of Steel.
You might remember Zod back in the seventies when he was played by Terence Stamp in Superman 2. For those who don't know about his character, Dru-Zod was a Kryptonian general who along with his companions Ursa and Non was trapped into the Phantom Zone by Superman's father Jor-El before the destruction of Krypton. Now this isn't the first time a villain who has been used in a past film gets a new take. Who can forget Christopher Nolan's take on the Joker in The Dark Knight, who was a character used in Tim Burton's 80s Batman.
Viggo is a great actor and has proven his abilities numerous times, and if he'd play Zod anything like he played Aragorn in Lord of the Rings, then we'd be in for a real treat. Viggo is younger than Stamp was when he played Zod, which makes me wonder if this is a younger Zod that we're going to see, who will presumably be a better physical match for Henry Cavill's young Superman. While it would be cool to see a younger Zod, it might mess too much with continuity as Zod should be close in age to who ever play Jor-El, and Jor-El is most likely going to be played by an older actor around Marlon Brando's age when he played the part. My personal choice for an older Zod would've been actor Jeremy Irons, who can probably come closest to Stamp's portrayal, but he might be too old to be a believable threat for Henry Cavill's Superman.
So what do you think of Viggo as Zod? What do you think of Costner as Pa Kent?
Review: I Am Number Four Takes You For The Alien Adventure We've Been Waiting For
I Am Number Four combines all the elements that make for a great Sci-Fi movie. It's no wonder Alex Pettyfer is a rising star in Hollywood, because his performance was fantastic. With so many new stars, action, and an interesting story, there's not to many reasons not to like it. But I didn't say there was NONE.
