I somehow missed this, but production has started on a
movie about the legendary all-girl rock group the Runaways--the band that launched the careers of Lita Ford and Joan Jett. Kristen Stewart from the Twilight movies is playing Joan Jett, Dakota Fanning is lead singer Cherie Currie, and a girl named Alessandra Torresani has been plucked out of relative obscurity to play Lita Ford (who also has a producing credit on this one). Expected out next year, I think this might kick quite a bit of ass.
Then there's this fun little film I had forgotten about--
The Expendables. Also out next year--release date 23 April--written, directed, and starring Sylvester Stallone. Also starring:
- Jason Statham
- Jet Li
- Mickey Rourke
- Dolph Lundgren
- Danny Trejo
- Steve Austin (yes, THAT Steve Austin)
- Randy Couture
- cameo role for Arnold Schwarzenegger
This may very well be the greatest guy movie ever made. (no qualifiers are needed for a project of this magnitude)
