I Am Link

.
--- Jane's Boyd - I feel like everybody's going to be jumping on the Boyd Holbrook train soon enough - he keeps lining up good projects, and being very handsome while doing so. We've just seen him sporting a sexy stache and stealing Liberace away from Matt Damon in Behind the Candelabra, and now he's signed on to play Ewan McGregor's lil' brother in Musical Chairs: The Movie I mean Jane Got a Gun, that neo-western with Natalie Portman, which is currently shooting.

--- Gay Less - Speaking of the Liberace movie, I guess a bunch of studio-heads pushed back against Steven Soderbergh's claim that it was "too gay for Hollywood" - Mother Jones reached out to Soderbergh for a response and got the most deliciously sarcastic reply to their accusations from the director.

--- Big Monkeys - I can't even imagine seeing The Wizard of Oz in IMAX 3D, can you? That seems crazy, but it will be a reality come September. Anyway I know The Wizard of Oz is a special case but I hope this leads to more old movies on big screens in wide release, I really don't get why the studios don't do it more often. Especially now with digital distribution - this isn't going to cost them anything, and they'll make so much money.
.
--- Nurse Maya - Oh this is awesome and long overdue news - Maya Rudolph has finally joined the cast of one of her babydaddy's flicks! She's now in Paul Thomas Anderson's Inherent Vice - she's been spotted on the set in a nurse's get-up (looking very very pregnant with her boss' baby, at that).

--- Mutant Times - Bryan Singer continues to tweet from the set of the next X-Men movie, EW rounded up a couple of recent ones plopping us down in the period (Vietnam! Nixon!) - unfortunately he has yet to snap any pictures from Michael Fassbender's fittings though. I'll just assume he's waiting to reveal the BIG surprises until closer to the film's release.

--- And finally, here below is an international trailer for JT Petty's Hellbenders (via). Petty made the terrific horror flicks S&Man (my review) and the underrated The Burrowers. I guess Hellbenders is still looking for distribution here in the US. He's a good one!

So lets talk about Hellbenders. So am I to understand that a movie with Clancy Brown and Clifton Collins Jr in it about sinning priests sending demons back to hell doesn't have a US release date?!?!?! What is wrong with us as a society? This looks awesome! We made Philip Philips happen. We made Bieber happen. We can at least make this happen! Gah!

Your Soderbergh link is wrong. :(
