On the Basis of Sex Trailer – Felicity Jones becomes future Supreme Court Justice/Legend Ruth Bader Ginsburg

17th July 2018 By Tim Isaac

Synopsis: ‘The film tells an inspiring and spirited true story that follows young lawyer Ruth Bader Ginsburg as she teams with her husband Marty to bring a groundbreaking case before the U.S. Court of Appeals and overturn a century of gender discrimination. The feature will premiere in 2018 in line with Justice Ginsburg’s 25th anniversary on the Supreme Court.’

The movie stars Felicity Jones in the lead role, alongside Armie Hammer, Justin Theroux, Kathy Bates, Sam Waterston, Jack Reynor, and Cailee Spaeny. Mimi Leder (Deep Impact) directs from a script by Daniel Stiepleman.

Armie Hammer Joins Ruth Bader Ginsberg Biopic, On The Basis Of Sex

8th September 2017 By Tim Isaac

A few weeks ago it was revealed that Felicity Jones had signed on to play Ruth Bader Ginsburg in the biopic On the Basis of Sex, based on Daniel Stiepleman’s Black List script. Now she has some company, as Deadline reports Armie Hammer is also set to be part of the movie.

Ginsberg was appointed to the Supreme Court in 1993 by President Clinton and became the second female justice after Sandra Day O’Connor. However, the movie is set to concentrate on an earlier moment in her life, when she and her husband Marty (Hammer), teamed ‘to bring the first landmark gender discrimination case before the Supreme Court’. While Ginsburg argued six cases before the Supreme Court between 1971 and 1976, the movie is likely to concentrate on the first one she wrote the brief for, Reed v. Reed, which extended the protections of the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to women for the first time.

The movie is due to start shooting this month in Montreal, with Mimi Leder directing from a script by Daniel Stiepleman (who just so happens to be Ginsburg’s nephew).

Felicity Jones Will Be Ruth Bader Ginsburg In On the Basis of Sex

19th July 2017 By Tim Isaac

Following the massive success of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, Felicity Jones is massively in demand. Just a few days ago it was revealed she’s signed up for a movie based on the story of the ballet, Swan Lake. Now she’s heading to the US Supreme Court, or at least to play a woman who’s heading there.

She will play Ruth Bader Ginsburg in the biopic On the Basis of Sex, based on Daniel Stiepleman’s Black List script.

Mimi Leder is set to direct the movie, which focuses of the obstacles Ginsburg faced during her fight for equal rights. As Variety notes, ‘Ginsberg was appointed to the Supreme Court in 1993 by President Clinton and became the second female justice after Sandra Day O’Connor. Focus Features has been developing the project since 2015 with Natalie Portman previously attached to play Ginsburg. Ginsburg is 84 and remains an associate justice who is part of the court’s liberal wing. She is one of three female justices on the current court along with Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan.’

The film is due to start shooting in Montreal in September.

Felicity Jones To Star In Swan Lake Movie For Universal

11th July 2017 By Tim Isaac

Having starred in the billion dollar grossing Rogue One, Felicity Jones’ star has jumped massively in the last few months. Now THR reports that she’s set to star in a movie based on Swan Lake, which Universal has just picked up the rights to (beating out the likes of Paramount and TriStar who were also interested).

There’s not too much info on the plot, but it’s based upon a pitch from writer Kristina Lauren Anderson, based on Tchaikovsky’s ballet about ‘Odette, a princess that is turned into a swan by an evil sorcerer’s curse’. The film itself won’t be a ballet, but is being set-up as a major tentpole movie inspired by the story.

Luca Guadagnino is attached to direct the movie. He’s expected to have a crossover success later this year with the gay-themed Call Me by Your Name, starring Armie Hammer, which was hailed as one of the standout films at Sundance.

New Collide Trailer – Nicholas Hoult goes on the run from Anthony Hopkins

19th January 2017 By Tim Isaac

The first trailer for Collide arrived back last May, but there’s still no UK release date announced for the movie, which stars Nicholas Hoult and Anthony Hopkins. However, with a US release due in just over a month, a new promo has arrived, which you can watch below.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘After a heist goes terribly wrong, Casey Stein (Nicholas Hoult) finds himself on the run from a ruthless gang headed by mob boss Hagen (Anthony Hopkins). Now Casey has precious cargo that belongs to Hagen, who will stop at nothing to retrieve it. Left with no choice, Casey calls his former employer and drug smuggler Geran (Ben Kingsley) to protect his long-time girlfriend Juliette before Hagen gets his hands on her. Casey sets out on an adrenaline-fueled car chase on the German highways to save the love of his life before it’s too late.’

Take a look at the trailer below. [Read more…]

Final Rogue One: A Star Wars Story Trailer – Felicity Jones heads for a galaxy far, far away

13th October 2016 By Tim Isaac

rogue-one-slideWhile there have been rumours of trouble behind the scenes of Rogue One, with Disney said to be concerned about the tone, and the need for extensive reshoots, in the past few weeks the vibes seem to have been improving for the first of the planned movies that take place outside the main Star Wars story arc. The final trailer has now arrived, which certainly makes it look like this could be a good one.

The film follows the mission that got hold of the Death Star plans that played such a vital role in the first movie, with the trailer not just teasing the planet destroying weapon, but also the fact Darth Vader will feature in the movie. And after the success of Rey, the trailer introduces us to another strong heroine in the form of Felicity Jones’ Jyn Erso.

The movie hits cinemas in December. Take a look at the trailer below. [Read more…]
