New American Sniper Trailer – Bradley Cooper turns ace gunman

December 19, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

american-spider-bradley-cooperIf you’re going to change directors, swapping Steven Spielberg for Clint Eastwood is a great trade. With a limited US release of December 25th, American Sniper is now gearing up to be in the Oscar race, with Bradley Cooper aiming for his third Oscar nomination in a row with the movie.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘From director Clint Eastwood comes “American Sniper,” starring Bradley Cooper as Chris Kyle, the most lethal sniper in U.S. military history. But there was much more to him than his skill as a sharpshooter.

‘U.S. Navy SEAL Chris Kyle is sent to Iraq with only one mission: to protect his brothers-in-arms. His pinpoint accuracy saves countless lives on the battlefield and, as stories of his courageous exploits spread, he earns the nickname “Legend.” However, his reputation is also growing behind enemy lines, putting a price on his head and making him a prime target of insurgents. He is also facing a different kind of battle on the home front: striving to be a good husband and father from halfway around the world.

‘Despite the danger, as well as the toll on his family at home, Chris serves through four harrowing tours of duty in Iraq, personifying the SEAL creed to “leave no man behind.” But upon returning to his wife, Taya Renae Kyle (Sienna Miller), and kids, Chris finds that it is the war he can’t leave behind.’

The movie arrives in UK cinemas (and goes wide in the US) on January 16th. [Read more…]

American Sniper Trailer – Plus a poster for the Clint Eastwood directed Bradley Cooper flick

October 3, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

American-Sniper-posterAmerican Sniper is gearing up to be in the Oscar race, which isn’t too much of a surprise considering it’s directed by Clint Eastwood. To give us a taste the first trailer has arrived along with a poster.

First Look At Bradley Cooper In American Sniper

October 2, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

american-sniper-pic1At one point it looked like producer/star Bradley Cooper had scored Steven Spielberg to direct American Sniper. However while the bearded one stepped away he got a great replacement in the form of Clint Eastwood.

Now the first images have arrived, via USA Today, and you can take a look at them above and below.

The action movie is based on the autobiography of Navy SEAL Chris Kyle (Cooper), a Texas native who racked up the most confirmed sniper kills of anyone in US military history. However before he took the record, he was a rodeo cowboy. Tragically though, he was killed by a fellow veteran at a shooting range in February 2013 (it’s not clear if that will be included in the movie).

Cooper did manage to talk to Kyle before he died. He says, “Thank God I got to talk to him once on the phone. It was a very quick conversation. But I did tell him how serious I was about making this movie. And he should just know that whatever fears he had about Hollywood, to just put them aside and trust me. That I was going to do everything I could to tell this story.”

Sienna Miller also stars as Kyle’s wife Taya Renae Kyle.

Jake McDorman In Talks For American Sniper

March 22, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

jake-mcdormanJake McDorman is a face many will recognise from the likes of Greek, the US Shameless and Live Free Or Die Hard, often seeming like he was about to break big but not yet getting there. Now he’s in talks for a big role, as he may join Clint Eastwood’s American Sniper, starring alongside Bradley Cooper, Cory Hardrict and Sienna Miller are also attached.

The action movie is based on the autobiography of Navy SEAL Chris Kyle (Cooper), a Texas native who racked up the most confirmed sniper kills of anyone in US military history. Tragically though, he was killed by a fellow veteran at a shooting range last February (it’s not clear if that will be included in the movie).

If he signs on, McDorman will be Ryan ‘Biggles’ Job, who was the sniper’s colleague during his time in the military. Several real Navy SEALS are also expected to co-star in the film, including Kyle’s really life friend, Kevin ‘Dauber’ Lacz.

Clint Eastwood is directing from a script provided by Jason Hall. Filming will start next month in Morocco.

Sienna Miller Set For Bennett Miller’s Foxcatcher

October 6, 2012 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

A few years ago it really seemed Sienna Miller’s movie career was taking off with the likes of GI Joe and Stardust, but since then we haven’t heard a huge amount from her (at least in mainstream movies). However now Deadline reports Miller has joined the cast of Foxcatcher for director Bennett Miller (Moneyball).

The drama is based on the true tale of Olympic wrestler Dave Schultz (Mark Ruffalo), who was murdered by his paranoid schizophrenic friend Jon Du Pont (Steve Carell) in 1996. Du Pont was an heir to the Du Pont chemical company, who built a wrestling training facility known as ‘Team Foxcatcher’ on his sprawling Pennsylvania estate. Schultz tried to get Du Pont help for years before the murder. Sienna Miller will play Nancy, Doug Schultz’s wife. Channing Tatum is set to star as Schultz’s younger brother.

Bennett Miller will direct from a screenplay by Dan Futterman and E. Max Frye. The film has been in development for years (it got delayed by Miller taking the Moneyball gig), but will finally start shooting later this month in Pittsburgh.

Sienna Miller Has A Case Of You With Brendan Fraser

February 17, 2012 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

A few years ago Sienna Miller seemed on the way to becoming a big star, but she’s almost disappeared from major productions recently. Indeed her last big movie was G.I. Joe: The Rise Of Cobra. However Variety reports that she and Brendan Fraser have got a new gig in a movie co-scripted by Justin Long. Unfortunately for Miller, it’s only a supporting role.

Long also takes the lead role in A Case of You, which is currently shooting in New York. The movie is about a young man who creates an online dating profile full of lies to try and attract women. It works well and he starts seeing a woman (Evan Rachel Wood), but then he realises that in order not to appear a complete liar, he needs to maintain the fiction he created online.

It’s isn’t certain exactly who Miller and Fraser will play, but Busy Phillips and Peter Dinklage also star, with Life Happens director Kat Coiro helming.
