If they ever get around to making the Justice League movie, Armie Hammer is set to take on the role of Batman:
Watch out, Christian Bale—there’s a new Batman coming to town!
His name is Armie Hammer, an unknown actor handpicked by Mad Max and Happy Feet director George Miller to play Bruce Wayne and his Caped Crusader alter ego in the upcoming superhero-filled Justice League Mortal.
Hammer insists he has not intention of stirring up a battle of the Batmans. “That guy’s got his s–t down,” Hammer says of Bale.
Even so, Hammer does point out that there’s at least one big difference between the two. “My codpiece is bigger,” he said with a laugh the other day from Vancouver, where he’s shooting the CW’s The Reaper (he plays the son of the devil).
While there have been reports that the Justice League flick has been shelved because of too many setbacks (including the writers’ strike), Hammer says he hopes to see it get made…
They were supposed to shoot in Australia, where Hammer and his castmates suffered through several months of physical training.
“I would spend hours training with actual guns to prepare me for this stuff,” Hammer said. “It was very intense. Our workout regimens were so rigorous that most of us would vomit.”
He added, “We weren’t trying to get ourselves aesthetically good looking. We were trying to get ready for the demands of shooting.”
Not that the 22-year-old great-grandson of oil tycoon Armand Hammer has anything to worry about in the looks department. At 6′5″ with a smile and hulking body to match, he has movie star written all over him.
He’s already been fitted for the superhero costume, which he says features functioning equipment, including trademark Batman weapons like spring-loaded titanium Bat-erangs. “I was looking down, and I was thinking, This is the best,” Hammer said of the first time he put on the entire ensemble. “Then I stood up, and they turned me around, and I faced a mirror—there was Batman. But then it hit me like a ton of bricks—it’s not just Batman, it’s me!”

Harry at Ain’t it Cool News has this review of the upcoming thriller Eagle Eye (some profanity here, but that’s Harry):
I tell you – I knew it when I first saw THE SALTON SEA that DJ Caruso was a filmmaker to watch, but then he went through a rough patch of just not being teamed up with the right material. Then we had that great DISTURBIA screening at SXSW – where the film that looked like a total ripoff of REAR WINDOW, from a Teen vantage point – turned out to be… well, pretty much a ripoff of REAR WINDOW from a Teen vantage point… only, it not only didn’t suck, but was incredibly entertaining. So much so that it reminded me that DJ existed and when that film succeeded beyond everyone’s wildest box office predictions – it kinda meant that DJ should get a promotion of sorts. That he was ready for the next stage budget and a higher grade of script.
Enter EAGLE EYE. A project hatched from a notion and conceit that Spielberg had been percolating for a while – waiting for the right team to hand it off to. D.J. seemed to be the key ingredient. And boy was it.
So what is EAGLE EYE… essentially it’s a NORTH BY NORTHWEST style film dripping with paranoia, conspiracies and a story that is always a few steps ahead of the audience.
That’s due to a great device. The voice on the phone. The faceless female that is seemingly everywhere and all knowing is a great character. Essentially – she’s an RPG Game Master controlling the most dangerous ‘game’ of surprise LARPing ever concocted.
You see, Shia LaBeouf and Michelle Monaghan are just your average nobodies. Folks just working to get by, the sort of folks you don’t really notice. THEN… extraordinary shit begins to happen – a voice directing them… rather insistently with perilous ramifications for those that do not cooperate… to do her bidding.
Just like a Dungeon Master, the voice is the source for all information for the characters, and just like an asshole Dungeonmaster – if you piss them off, she’ll put you nostril deep in a bog of eternal fuckedupness. The voice controls everyone and knows seemingly everything in real time.
Now – it isn’t announced what time period this is, but I’ve got the feeling it’s no further in the future than some time in the next 5-15 years. The world seems stuck in the same sort of paranoid-fed levels of personal rights infringements – and the question that is forced into the forefront of my mind through most of this film is… WHAT IF – the access that is developed to learn everything about everything is turned against us.
Who is the puppetmaster? Frankly, to me the most important question on your mind through the film is, “What Next?” – and you think that often and quickly.
The film has an aesthetic look that is everybit as “pretty” as something that comes out of Michael Bay’s Dear Penthouse, I never thought I would shoot a film this well developed… fantasies. It has that beauty, without ever being stupid. The characters are developed, the turns are not predictable, the casting and random PEOPLE IN HIGH PLACES are there to SERVE THE STORY, not to artificially give it a sense of some misplaced grandeur and importance.
Director Marc Forestor on the Chile set of Quantum of Solace
IGN was a part of a small group of online sites who were invited to London last week to participate in series of special events leading up to the November 14 release of Quantum of Solace. The sites were there to represent the fans whom had submitted questions for Daniel Craig and director, Marc Forestor to answer:
Marc Forster
IGN: Our first question from the readers of IGN is, “Since Quantum of Solace cannot have a love story involving Bond because Vesper is supposed to have been his first and only true love, what was the challenge in order to make this one a unique story like its predecessor?”
Marc Forster: I thought there’s this incredible opportunity here because we ended Casino Royale with Bond being at a very vulnerable state and he was sort of at a place where I felt one could really take advantage of and really pick up and sort of go a little further, a little deeper into the emotional ground of Bond. And I thought in the same time that it’s fascinating because you know… I created the character of Camille [played by Olga Kurylenko] as sort of a mirror image to Bond and a reflection of him. Basically, what I think is interesting about Bond — and I think also was a part of the sort of the success of Bond — is that Bond always kept mystery around him, and this mystery keeps you interested in the character.
In a sense I don’t think one ever wants Bond to talk openly about his emotional feelings. I think it wouldn’t be right because there’s still this hard shell of this tough man, but inside there’s a certain vulnerability. So I created Camille’s character sort of more to be a mirror image of Bond than to have a relationship or anything. So there’s definitely a sexual tension, but above it all it’s more like that she is very similar to Bond and speaks the words Bond sometimes would like to speak and through that we can feel sort of what Bond thinks, and I thought it would be a nice way to express that.
