Chef Trailer – Jon Favreau serves up something a little more small-scale

April 8, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


Jon Favreau has been making big Hollywood blockbusters for the last few years with the first two Iron Man movies, and he’s also been developing some other grand scale projects such as The Jungle Book and Magic Kingdom.

However he’s now squeezed in something a little smaller and which gives him the chance to both direct and play the lead.

The movie follows a former high class chef (Favreau) who decides to get team up with his ex-wife (Sofia Vergara), his best pal (John Leguizamo) and his son (Emjay Anthony) and get a food truck, which he hopes will get him out of the rut he’s stuck in.

The great cast also features Dustin Hoffman, Scarlett Johansson, Garry Shandling and Robert Downey Jr.

Chef is due out in the US on May 9th, before coming to the UK on June 20th. [Read more…]

Dustin Hoffman & Bobby Canavale Join Jon Favreau’s Chef

July 16, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Dustin-HoffmanTwitter is becoming an increasingly popular way for directors to announce additions to their casts, eschewing the traditional route of going of The Hollywood Reporter or Variety. Jon Favreau is following that trend by using Twitter’s Vine to release a video revealing that Dustin Hoffman and Bobby Cannavale have joined the cast of his upcoming indie comedy, Chef.

The tweet to go alongside it simply said, ‘New cast members. #Chef https://vine.co/v/hZEIHAVuwbD’, and you can take a look at the accompanying video below.

The movie follows a former chef (Favreau) who decides to set a food truck in Los Angeles. No details have been revealed as to exactly what Dustin Hoffman and Bobby Cannavale will be doing in the movie, but they join a cast that includes Jon Favreau, Sofí Vergara, John Leguizamo, Scarlett Johansson, and Robert Downey Jr. Shooting has already started in LA.

It’s currently due for release May 2014.

New cast members. #Chef https://t.co/5ImZcDmm1v

Bradley Cooper To Star In Chef & Steven Spielberg’s American Sniper

May 3, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

bradley-cooper-bathtuban After the success of Lincoln, Steven Spielberg has chosen his next movie and decided that he’s going to team up with actor Bradley Cooper for American Sniper, according to THR.

The action movie is based on the autobiography of Navy SEAL Chris Kyle, 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).

Jason Dean Hall (Spread, Paranoia), is writing the screenplay. Shooting is tentatively scheduled to begin in the first quarter of 2014. Spielberg was previously going to make Robopocalypse as his next film, but that film was put on hold by DreamWorks in January.

That’s not the only movie Cooper has signed up for though, as Deadline says he’ll star in Chef, which John Wells (August: Osage County) is closing a deal to direct. Derek Cianfrance was previously attached to helm, but he is no longer involved.

Cooper will play Adam Jones, a chef in Paris who ruins his reputation because of an addiction to controlled substances. He sobers up and returns to the City of Lights, determined to create the greatest restaurant in the world, with the goal of receiving three Michelin stars. Omar Sy co-stars. The film will shoot next year.
