Access Hollywood has another behind-the-scenes feature on Oliver Stone’s W. They are on the set for a scene where George Bush practices an emergency water landing before the now infamous “Mission Accomplished” speech. I have yet to read the script, but I find it interesting that they would choose to include a little moment like [...]

Access Hollywood has a four minute behind the scenes look at Oliver Stone’s W. If you ever had a doubt that Josh Brolin wouldn’t be able to do George W, watch Brolin’s delivery of the speech early on in this clip. It’s amazing. Definitely a lot better than the professional George W. Bush impersonator that [...]

Lionsgate has sent us two high resolution versions of the new W. posters which have been seen around Denver. IGN also has a new billboard advertising the film (seen above). The caption reads “Anyone Can Grow Up To Be President”. I’m really digging the outdoor advertising a lot more than the “What a Wonderful World” [...]

FilmSchoolRejects found some new teaser posters for Oliver Stone’s George Bush biopic W. The posters were found downtown in Denver, Colorado, right next to the convention center, where not-so-coincidentally, the Democratic National Convention will be held later this month. The tagline on the poster reads “A Life Misunderestimated”. I know the teaser trailer was disappointing, [...]

Get ready! AICN has the official teaser poster for Oliver Stone’s George W. Bush biopic W.

The teaser trailer for Oliver Stone’s W. is now online. It basically focuses on Bush’s partying antics. The juxtaposition of “It’s a Wonderful World” over the Bush presidency gives you a good idea of the humorous spin that Stone is taking on this story. Tell me what you think in the comments below.

The curse of One-Eyed Willie…
UPDATE: The reader consensus seems to be 1) no, it’s not cool, this remake is utterly pointless and a disgrace, 2) where the hell will Snake “land the glider,” 3) Brolin is too old (not really understanding this one), 4) FTW, John Carpenter and Kurt Russell should team up to make Escape [...]

You special kids can stop meddlin’ with your mashed potatoes because the last major bit of casting on Oliver Stone’s W. is close to a done deal: ass tamale Richard Dreyfuss will play elusive veep Dick Cheney. Wow. There wasn’t any question that Stone was going for the president’s jugular with this biopic, but [...]

The latest issue of Entertainment Weekly has the first photos of Josh Brolin and Elizabeth Banks as George and Laura Bush from Oliver Stone’s upcoming film W. Problem is, when we posted the photos last week no one had a high resolution scan of the two photos. Click on the photo above and below for [...]

Yesterday, we posted the first, rather ace photos of Josh Brolin as the worst U.S. president of all time for Oliver Stone’s W., and today brings word that the flick has picked up a distributor, Lionsgate, and is set for release nationwide on October 17th, 2008. Keep in mind that even though the film [...]

Update: We’ve updated this story with a new photo.

When I first heard that Josh Brolin was cast as George W. Bush in Oliver Stone’s new film W., I was confused. Brolin is a great actor, but if I were to list 20 actors to play George W, his name wouldn’t have made that list, never [...]

“Want to see my Bush impression?”
UPDATE: EW now reports that Jeffrey Wright (Casino Royale) is in talks to star as Colin Powell, James Cromwell (Babe) is in talks to portray George Bush Sr. and Robert Duval (The Godfather) has been contacted for the frightening role of Dick Cheney. This flick is really shaping up. [...]

Vanity Fair decided to recreate some of the classic scenes from the films of Alfred Hitchcock using modern day actors and actresses. Imagine Charlize Theron in Dial M For Murder, Gwyneth Paltrow and Robert Downey Jr. in To Catch a Thief, Seth Rogen in North by Northwest, Scarlett Johansson and Javier Bardem in Rear Window, [...]

McG is hinting that No Country for Old Men star Josh Brolin might be cast as the new Terminator in  Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins. This is addition to the already officially announced Christian Bale as John Connor would certainly raise the level of talent in front of the camera in the start of this [...]

“You mean, that boy from The Goonies? Yippie-ki-yay!”
Wowzers. Oliver Stone had hinted at making a feature on the life of the current American president when he did press for the Alexander Director’s Cut, but who knew it’d come together this quick? Filming could begin as soon as April for the George W. Bush biopic, brilliantly [...]
