ANTONIO BANDERAS MAKING A FILM ABOUT MOORISH SULTAN BOABDIL

After a few unsuccessful years in Hollywood, Antonio Banderas has taken things into his own hands so he will produce, write and direct a biopic on Boabdil according to "FirstShowingNet". The exotic historical movie will tell the story of Abu Abdullah Muhammad XII, the last Muslim ruler of the Emirate of Granada in Spain. Despite the foreign setting and characters, the film will be shoot completely in English but not before 2012. since Banderas hasn't found financing yet. Antonio Banderas hasn't given himself the main role but he will do a supporting one as General Gonzalo de Cordoba, who captured the kingdom for the Christians.
Boabdil spent many years fighting his own father and uncle for the throne, he also invaded Castile, but after many battles he had to surrender the city of Granada to Ferdinand and Isabella, king and queen of Castile and Aragon. The spot from which Muhammad XII looked for the last time on Granada while his royal party was moving to exile is known today as "the Moor's last sigh". King Ferdinand celebrated the conquest of Granada by taking Boabdil's daughter as one of his mistresses, and she became the mother of one of his illegitimate sons, after which she became a nun.

But when his latest project threatens the homes of the local forest creatures, the animals seek revenge by turning a peaceful cul-de-sac under construction into a battlefield of epic proportions. It’s man versus nature and the fur is gonna fly! Check out all the adorable animals (and a little bit less adorable Brooke Shields) in the trailer.

GERARD BUTLER VS ANISTON AND SCHERZINGER

Since you obviously like Scotland's own Gerard Butler a lot judging from the current results in HOLLYWOOD SPY's latest poll, you will probably be happy to hear that he is having a blast these days. It seems he has no problem finding gorgeous women all around the world and having fun with them. After taking a trip to Mexico to celebrate Jennifer Aniston's 41st birthday, the Scottish hunk flew over to the Rio de Janeiro carnival. Giving proof to all those people who believe that his fling with Aniston is just a fake relationship constructed to promote their upcoming romantic comedy "The Bounty Hunter", once in Rio he took a romantic beach stroll with a bikini-clad goddess from the Pussycat Dolls, Nicole Scherzinger. Although they tried to quash possible gossips so the actor marched on ahead of Nicole, it seems that was unnecessary since according to the press she's now back with her boyfriend Lewis Hamilton. Having all this in mind I wonder what will happen when Gerard comes to Serbia this Spring to shoot Ralph Fiennes' directorial debut "Coriolanus". As you know, Serbian women are known to be among the most gorgeous in the world :)

CIARAN HINDS TO PLAY MARTIAN EMPEROR IN SF SAGA "JOHN CARTER OF MARS"

Once an emperor always an emperor: after playing Caesar in legendary "Rome" Ciaran Hinds will become a Martian emperor in "John Carter of Mars". With James Purefoy and Polly Walker he's the third star of "Rome" who will jump from A.D. to distant future. Here's what he said about shooting the upcoming sf blockbuster in a recent interview:
They are shooting the film at the moment. I have a small role in that. I have already shot on it for a couple of days. Then I go back to the set in March to shot for another six or eight days. I'm playing Tardes Mors, one of the leaders of Mars. I am the father of the female protagonist. She is played by Lynn Collins. Andrew Stanton is directing it. He shot "Finding Nemo" and "Wall-E". Those wonderful films. He had thought of me to play one kind of leader on Mars. It was a thrill to meet him knowing he'd made these classic films.
Ciaran will also appear as Albus Dumbledore's younger brother Aberforth in "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows".

"THE FLASH" HAS FOUND ITSELF A DIRECTOR?

"Movieweb" has just released the story about Greg Berlanti being Warner Bros. top contender to direct "The Flash" movie. Berlanti is one of the writers and producers on the studio's "Green Lantern" film, which will be released in 2011, and he was originally attached to direct before they brought Martin Campbell on board. The studio praised his prep work on "Green Lantern", which lead to his front-runner status to direct "The Flash".
As you know the Flash possesses "super-speed", which includes the ability to run and move extremely fast, use superhuman reflexes and seemingly violate certain laws of physics. Most of us remember Flash from CBS show starring double-Emmy Award winner John Wesley Shipp in which he became a crime fighting hero of Central City after surviving a lightning-induced chemical accident.

VANESSA REDGRAVE IN ROLAND EMMERICH'S SHAKESPEARE MOVIE

After our favourite British ladies Judi Dench and Helen Mirren, Vanessa Redgrave will also play a queen Elizabeth. She will join David Thewlis and Rhys Ifans in Roland Emmerich's new movie "Anonymous". The film will center on an old theory that the plays of William Shakespeare were actually written by Edward de Vere, the 17th Earl of Oxford. Here's what Emmerich said for "Empire":
We have Vanessa Redgrave as Queen Elizabeth, David Thewlis as William Cecil, old and young, and Rhys Ifans as The Earl Of Oxford. It's a true English cast and I'm really proud of it. There's 12 main characters and 20 or 30 other characters, and each of the characters is really good.It's a mix of a lot of things: it's an historical thriller because it's about who will succeed Queen Elizabeth and the struggle of the people who want to have a hand in it. It's the Tudors on one side and the Cecils on the other, and in between is the Queen. Through that story we tell how the plays written by the Earl of Oxford ended up labeled "William Shakespeare".
So, what do you think about this, do you believe that Emmerich can make a non-apocalyptic drama with acclaimed actors?

SOPHIE KINSELLA'S "THE UNDOMESTIC GODDESS" TO BE MADE INTO A MOVIE

After the adaptation of her bestseller "Confession of a Shopaholic" Sophie Kinsella will have another of her books made into a movie: Andy Fickman has signed on to direct her "The Undomestic Goddess" for Universal Pictures.
Adapted by Aline Brosh McKenna ("The Devil Wears Prada"), Kinsella's book centers on a workaholic female attorney who, believing she wrecked her chances of being named partner at her London firm, has a meltdown and ends up in the English countryside. After stopping at a large house to ask directions, she is mistaken as a candidate for a maid position and takes a housekeeping job.
Hope some nice actress will get cast for the main role.
