HBO Orders LUCK to Series; Dustin Hoffman Stars

by Brendan Bettinger    Posted: July 14th, 2010 at 10:52 am

When you look at the caliber of talent behind the pilot for the horse racing drama Luck, it was pretty much a foregone conclusion that HBO would order it to series.  Michael Mann directed the pilot from a script by Deadwood creator David Milch, with a cast toplined by Dustin Hoffman.  See what I mean?

According to The Live Feed, the cast is rounded out by Dennis Farina, John Ortiz, Kevin Dunn, Richard Kind, Jason Gedrick, Ritchie Coster, Ian Hart, Tom Payne, Kerry Condon, Gary Stevens, and Nick Nolte.  Production begins this fall, so Luck should debut on HBO sometime next year along with the fantasy series Game of Thrones.  Meanwhile, the Martin Scorsese-directed first episode of the Prohibition-era gangster series Boardwalk Empire premieres September 19th on the network.

Alan Tudyk Joins TRANSFORMERS 3 Cast

Alan Tudyk (Firefly, Dollhouse) has joined the cast of Transformers 3 according to thewrap.  While the studio is keeping the story and his character under wraps, I’m hoping Michael Bay is going to use him in a fun role and not something dark and serious.  Because if you’ve seen his work on Firefly, you know that’s the type of role he’s great in.

Tudyk joins a cast that includes Shia LaBeouf, Megan Fox, Kevin Dunn, Julie White, John Malkovich, Frances McDormand, Ken Jeong, Josh Duhamel and Tyrese Gibson.

Director Michael Bay is shooting Transformers 3 around the United States and even in Moscow.  Transformers 3 hits theaters July 1, 2011.

While principle photography hasn’t yet begun on Michael Bay’s Transformers 3, the production was doing some sort of early filming in Los Angeles today.  Since some of the filming involved Megan Fox, paparazzi were on hand and they snapped a few shots.  So if you’d like to see Megan Fox standing around (with one shot of Bumblebee) hit the jump.  Transformers 3 gets released July 1, 2011.  No info on the story has been released.

Kevin Dunn and Julie White will return to play Sam Witwicky’s (Shia LaBeouf) parents in Michael Bay’s Transformers 3.  So for those wondering if these minor comic relief characters would once again dazzle us with their presence, you can now put your mind at ease.  Variety reports that the actors have closed their deals as the film moves through pre-production.  Megan Fox, Josh Duhamel, and Tyrese Gibson will also return and they’ll be joined by new cast members John Malkovich, Frances McDormand, and Ken Jeong.  Shooting is set to begin in May.

Transformers 3 is slated to hit theaters on July 1, 2011.

THR reports that Dunn will play the prodigious misanthrope who is the ringmaster of a syndicate of misfits. Condon will play an exercise rider who is interested in “Bug Boy” (Payne), an apprentice jockey.

Audio from the TRANSFORMERS REVENGE OF THE FALLEN Press Conferences in Los Angeles

by Steve 'Frosty' Weintraub    Posted: June 19th, 2009 at 8:45 pm

Just a few hours ago, Paramount/DreamWorks held two press conferences here in Los Angeles to promote “Transformers Revenge of the Fallen”. Since I’m not going to have the time to transcribe the interviews tonight, for all the people that wanted to hear what the cast and filmmakers said, I’m offering you the audio files right now.

The first press conference was Scott Farrar (ILM), Producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura and screenwriters Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman.

The second press conference was director Michael Bay, Megan Fox, Tyrese Gibson, Josh Duhamel, Kevin Dunn, and Ramon Rodriguez.

While the first one will be informative if you want to hear what went on behind the scenes at ILM and how the script came together, the second one is where it’s at. That’s because the cast was saying some very funny stuff and Michael Bay is…well…Michael Bay. You can never go wrong listening to Bay.

So if you’d like to hear them, here’s the link for the first one, and here’s the link for the second. Look for a lot more from today’s junket very soon.
