'Undies' broke the news right here on Monday on the Carrie Ann-Moss casting in M:I-3, a day later the trades picked it up. Now he's back with more on how the next "Mission: Impossible" is shaping up:
"Carrie is set, but don't be mislead like so many of the other sites - she is NOT playing Leah. She is the "unnamed female lead". Scarlett Johansson is in negotiations to play Leah (whose actions are the catalyst for the second act). Phil Seymour Hoffman is still in negotiations. Biggest issue with the script is instilling a real sense of "danger". You and I both know that there is no way that Tom's character is ever in real jeopardy (look it up - Cruise's characters have never died on film though in the original draft of SAMUARI he was supposed to) and Joe is trying to make us think that here he may be. People will actually die, etc. They're modeling the violence and gritty reality more on Narc than Bond".
Meanwhile 'Karl Childers' found out a bit today about the filming technique being employed on Robert Rodriguez's adaptation of the acclaimed cult comic "Sin City":
"Rodriguez plans on shooting Willis' sequences in black-and-white in order to pay tribute to Miller's B&W Sin City art, which is itself a homage to the dramatic visuals of the great Hollywood film noir movies of the 1940s and 50s (Criss Cross, The Asphalt Jungle, The Killing, Touch of Evil)._ Rodriguez does plan to shoot some sequences in color, but his choice to film even part of Sin City in black-and-white is courageous to say the least, and testifies to the control he must have over this highly intriguing project"
