I’ve written 29 news stories in the last 48 hours, yet, believe it or not, wasn’t able to get to everything I’ve wanted to show you. I usually let go of these “missed opportunities”. After all, there are only 24 hours in a day. But I’ve decided to make it a new years resolution (yes, [...]

Joe Carnahan plans to embrace the new high definition revolution, and hopes to shoot his upcoming Pablo Escobar biopic Killing Pablo on the new Red camera system.

Joe Carnahan still isn’t sure which of his two greenlit films will go into production next, but he gives us this update:
“There are two actors that I’m interested in for [White Jazz]. Both are available and both are apparently keen on the script. But it’s all speculation at the point. [Killing Pablo] on the other [...]

A couple weeks ago Joe Carnahan was debating publicly about what movie would be his next project. Would it be the Pablo Escobar bio Killing Pablo or the big screen adaptation of White Jazz? Earlier this week Smokin’ Joe posted a mysterious photo on his blog (seen to the right) of Juggernaut from the X-Men [...]

Earlier today we told you that Joe Carnahan was considering shooting Killing Pablo before White Jazz. He’s now asking the help of his blog readers to help him make a decision. And in an unprecedented move, he has publicly published both scripts online for you to help him make a decision.
Is he crazy? Well yes, [...]

George Clooney and Chris Pine leave the big screen adaptation of White Jazz, so what is writer/director Joe Carnahan to do?
Kill Pablo instead?
That is an option that Smokin’ Joe is currently considering. Caranaha’s Pablo Escobar biopic, titled Killing Pablo, was finally greenlit earlier this month, after years of development. Carnahan originally planned to shoot the [...]

So first Joe Carnahan looses Chris Pine who jumped ship to JJ Abrams’ Star Trek, and now George Clooney is leaving the White Jazz ship due to “scheduling issues.” Carnahan was scheduled to go into production early next year, and Clooney is currently shooting the Coen Bros’ Burn After Reading, and trying to finish [...]

Chris Pine has dropped out of playing Junior Stemmons in Joe Carnahan’s White Jazz, which means he’s 100% confirmed to play Kirk in JJ Abrams’ Star Trek. I know, I know, we already had a Carnahan story earlier today, but this is some breaking news as Pine was undecided when the news broke a couple [...]

I was talking last night to a group of friends about how we all really want JJ Abrams’ Star Trek to be good but with the casting announcements that have been made so far, I’m starting to get a bit worried. What happened to the days when Matt Damon was rumored to be playing Captain [...]

The characters of Junior Stemmons and Glenda Bledsoe have been cast in Joe Carnahan’s upcoming adaptation of James Ellroy’s White Jazz. So who will be playing Stemmons and Bledsoe? Carnahan won’t say.

The Yari Film Group is fast-tracking Killing Pablo with Christian Bale (Batman Begins) and Javier Bardem (No Country for Old Men) set to star. The Pablo Escobar bio-pic has been in development for nearly five years, and was originally set-up at Paramount. Joe Carnahan (Smoking Aces) is still attached to direct. Bardem is slated to [...]

Clint Mansell has undoubtedly created the best music score in Hollywood history. And I’m talking Requiem For a Dream. You might have not seen the movie, but you sure as hell have heard the music, which has been ripped off for commercials and many movie trailers (including one of the Lord of the Rings films [...]

When we talked to Joe Carnahan back in January, he expressed interest in making a Smoking Aces prequel: “I’ve had an idea to do a Tremor brothers prequel, do this, do that. You could explore these characters endlessly.” But the movie came and went, becoming modestly successful ($53 million worldwide) before doing huge numbers on [...]

Smokin’ Aces director Joe Carnahan has seen the early teaser trailer for Sin City 2. If it’s anything like the first movie, than Robert has done a couple full green screen tests using real actors. He might even have a full scene shot and edited.
