8 Actresses Competing to Star with Johnny Depp in Thin Man Remake

Image
W.S. Van Dykes The Thin Man is considered by many to be a film classic on par with The Maltese Falcon or Alfred Hitchcocks very best. Its combination of an intricate mystery, endearing characters, and genuine humor made it way ahead of its time and unique to this very day. Currently, Rob Marshall ( Chicago , Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides ) and Billy Ray ( The Hunger Games ) are developing the remake with Johnny Depp as Nick Charles, and that leaves the other half of the equation his wife, Nora yet uncast. Apparently, its a role so sought after that eight high-profile actresses are vying for it. According to Deadlines Mike Fleming, that shortlist of actresses includes: Amy Adams ( Man of Steel ), Emily Blunt ( Looper ), Isla Fisher ( The Great Gatsby ), Eva Green ( Dark Shadows ), Emma Stone ( The Amazing Spider-Man ), Carey Mulligan ( Drive ), Rachel Weisz ( The Bourne Legacy ), and Kristen Wiig ( Bridesmaids ). As played by William Powell and Myrna Loy, Nick and No...

Johnny Depp's 'Dark Shadows' Will Be Nothing Like The '60s TV Series (Video)

Image
Johnny Depp and Tim Burton s fans are salivating over their hero's remake of Dark Shadows , the long-running (1.225 episodes) cult favorite TV soap opera. But fans of the original show aren't quite sure what to expect. The series ran from 1966 to 1971 and one of the most charming things about the daytime drama was the plethora of bloopers wrong props, bats flitting about on visible wires, falling scenery, muffed dialogue, the crew seen walking through shots, the cast trying in vain to ignore them -- in every episode. VIDEO: First Look at Johnny Depp's 'Dark Shadows' Trailer The original Dark Shadows dialogue was very stilted and the show took itself very seriously. Still, due to the recurring onset mishaps, it was hilarious (in that so bad it's good way) and highly addictive. In contrast, Depp and Burtons take looks flat-out funny, over-the-top and very vampire tongue-in-cheek.Depp and Burton will no doubt bring the samezany macabre humor that they put into E...

'Bully' to be released unrated despite push by Johnny Depp, others for PG-13

"Bully" will be released unrated on March 30, despite a push from the distributor, The Weinstein Company, and celebrities like Johnny Depp and Meryl Streep to lower the rating from R to PG-13. Stories: Johnny Depp, Meryl Streep want to lower 'Bully' rating (Poll) "Furthering proof that the R rating for some language is inappropriate for a film that's meant to educate and help parents, teachers, school officials and children with what's become an epidemic in schools around the country, the fight against the rating continues on," The Weinstein Company said in a statement obtained by OnTheRedCarpet.com. The Lee Hirsch documentary depicts the troubling trend of bullying in schools across America and garnered the restricted rating due to the depiction of real-life language used by bullies. "The small amount of language in the film that's responsible for the R rating is there because it's real," Hirsch said in a statement. "It's ...

The promotional video offers a few glimpses of new footage that are not featured in the first trailer. They include scenes where Johnny Depp's Barnabas Collins is seen sucking blood from a man's neck, finding McDonald's culture in 1972 shocking, and being left overwhelmed by Helena Bonham Carter's Dr. Julia Hoffman, AceShowbiz reported.

She is apparently a vengeful witch who turns him into a vampire before burying him alive. Two centuries after his death, Collins is accidentally freed from his grave. The vampire then returns to his mansion only to find his once-grand estate has fallen into ruin. He must now struggle to restore the glorious era of his family business. Based on a 1960s...
