More Hunger Games news

Latest rumors are saying that Alex Pettyfer, of I Am Number Four, has met with producers about playing the part of Peeta Mellark. His casting most likely depends on who is cast as Katniss, because he is 20 and his counterpart needs to look the same age to be convincing. This does seem to support the rumor that Jennifer Lawrence is in the lead for that role (she is also 20). 


I don't know how I feel about this, yet.


Stay tuned.

The Three Musketeers

I can't even  begin to talk about how excited I am for this movie. If you know me, you know how much I love Alexandre Dumas' novels and movie adaptations. The 1993 Three Musketeers with crazy-face Charlie Sheen, drunk-loving Kiefer Sutherland, and total has-been Chris O'Donnell was just about my favorite movie ever (up until seeing Romeo + Juliet). I love The Count of Monte Cristo with Jim Caviezel. And don't even get me started on The Man in the Iron Mask (LEO!). Er go, this new adaptation of The Three Musketeers has me in raptures.

Starring: Logan Lerman, Milla Jovovich, Matthew Macfayden, Ray Stevenson, Mads Mikkelsen, Luke Evans, James Corden, Juno Temple, Freddie Fox, Orlando Bloom, and Christoph Waltz. You're probably thinking, who are those people? But you actually know them, and I am pretty excited about the cast, especially Waltz as Cardinal Richelieu.

The movie opens October 14, 2011 in 3D (and 2D). Stay tuned for the trailer when it comes out! In the meantime, check out some pictures from filming below:
