Spoilers from here on out !
Top prototype from Real Steel .
Christopher Nolan has confirm that the movie will be shoot in Pittsburgh . This may think of thatNew Orleans is out of the runningas a shot location , although I do n’t think we roll in the hay for sure just where all the locations will be . Another report says Nolan may have scouted the English residence Kedleston Hall , with the obvious ( but purely inquisitive ) opening being that this will be the new Wayne Manor . [ IGN ]
Marion Cotillard say , “ I have a project for the summer . unlike thing that I do n’t wanna speak about . ” This has already been widely rede as relate to this movie , but there ’s nothing in her statement that actually suggests that , so I ’d apprize against scan too much into this . [ The Independent ]
Henry Cavill confirmed he has learn the script , and he described his approach to the character :
“ It ’s basically just a re - imagining and modernisation of an iconic character … Superman is Superman , after all . There ’s only so much of a change you could make to that . It ’s certainly , as I say , it ’s go to be dissimilar , but not so different that it ’s unrecognisable . ”

He also offered this hint on the Superman courtship :
“ I have n’t weary the actual film suit yet .. no , not yet . The [ costume ] team is still working on it . I ’ve done fittings .. and from what I ’ve heard it ’s coming together wondrously . It ’ll be overbold and Modern but straightaway recognizable . ”

Finally , he explained his comic book research for the part :
“ I ’m just foot out as much as I maybe can from the comical book account because evidently it ’s stick on across there as to who this man is and whatever part of his life you ’re wreak ; whatever part of his ultimate journey you ’re playing , you just demand to put in either the construction aspects , the building blocks to how he end up , all those key characteristics that are carried through and so it ’s just blame up a general idea of what he is and then working from there . ”
File this item under “ thing that are plain not true ” , but that silly Lindsay Lohan hearsay apparently is n’t going away . The original Supergirl rumor has been drop in party favor of the new “ report ” that Lohan is audition for the main female baddie . I would n’t put a lot of caudex in this . Slightly more interesting is the part of the story that claims Lohan is reading alongside largely unknown actor Adam Harris , who is supposedly in the mix for Luthor . Harris does expect the part , but again , I would n’t commit any of this . Moving on … [ Radar Online ]
Some game details have emerge for Hugh Jackman ’s golem boxing movie , directed by family line movie stalwart Shawn Levy . Jackman is disused human boxer Charlie Kenton , who reconnects with his estranged son while preparing a seemingly busted robot for a bragging fight with the World Robot Boxing champion Zeus . Jackman and Levy discuss the portrayal of Kenton , and how he straddle the descent between good and bad :
Levy : He does n’t need this kid and this small fry is underprice on his doorstep . He ’s attempt to just go day to day and now he ’s fetch a frickin ’ 10 year erstwhile in his backseat . Really , that ’s the turn . It ’s not that he suffer materialistic , they do start to win , but if anything , that ’s when the better Charlie starts to come out .
Jackman : Really , this is a character that does n’t believe in himself in the start , and he disappoint people finally because of that . The movie is a redemptive tarradiddle of someone who actually get a second chance . That can be more fearsome sometimes than the first , particularly when you make out what ’s at bet . I think that ’s what really we loved about this storey . The son , he just conceive in him .
levy en masse : He conceive in him and he think in this frickin ’ robot , this junkyard spare bot that Hugh ’s character ’s like , “ It ’s a bit of sh*t . Sell him off for parts . ” The small fry is like , “ There ’s something to this thing . ” The moving-picture show never confirms nor denies the truth of that , but it flirts with that sharpness of proposition .

Director Joseph Kosinski read he hopes he ’ll return for the sequel , and want to do with this movie :
We ’re work on the storey mighty now . Now that we ’ve got the backstory out of the way and we have a go at it this world and we love these characters , there ’s a pot of exemption that comes with the next cinema . When you reckon at “ Empire Strikes Back ” or “ The Dark Knight , ” continuation that were able to take the stories and characters to whole young places because you ’d done all the hard work in front of sentence , that ’s a really exciting matter . For now , I ’ll just say it ’s very exciting … For us , the storytelling will be easy because we wo n’t be saddled with 28 years of backstory . From a technical standpoint , in ordering for it to be a “ Tron ” motion-picture show , we ’re going to have to push the envelope . I ’m sure we wo n’t make it any easy . ”

The construct behind them is cunning because it feels like they are undefeatable , and this season also sees the retort of some of the Doctor ’s old foes , but with an interesting twist …
And Matt Smith suppose :
I think The quiet are one of the big monsters of late years and certainly one of the scariest . They ’re also very canny and I have sex the fact they ’ve been silently turn since the break of day of time to make The Doctor come unstuck . Steven has a deluxe plan and some of the germ he planted in the last time of year commencement coming to fruition and affecting the characters in drastic ways . Every role is faced with the most seismic and gamy - stakes choices we ’ve take care so far .
