NEWS ROUNDUP Ver.5

THE WALKING DEAD:

     Not a lot has been mentioned by me about The Walking Dead, that's partly due to I don't want to spoil too much for myself. Another reason is because the production does a decent job of keeping things tight on the set. Well this popped up on-line recently about two new characters that will be in season three of the show. The first is Manuel, a Hispanic who shows tendencies to be a good leader plus has a sense of humor. The second is Harold, a stoic male who's trying to create a place for himself in the zombie infested world. Hm. Wonder which of the two are going to be killed off the quickest. With The Governor being in this upcoming season I'm pretty sure a quarter of the cast won't see season four.

AMERICAN HORROR STORY:

     Well the basis for season two has been released and this season is placed in an institution ran by Jessica Lange's character. The cast is pretty much in place and includes James Cromwell, Jessica Lange, Chloe Sevigny, Evan Peters, and Zachary Quinto among others.

FINAL GIRL:

     Abigail Breslin has landed the lead role in Tyler Shields movie about a pack of feral boys who pick the wrong female for their next initiation.

LOBO:

     In a bit of an oddity yet one that I would watch with ease if it turns out to be more than a rumor. Supposedly one of the DC comic properties that might be made into a film is the story of a intergalactic bounty hunter with a really bad attitude and that takes shit from no one, not even Santa Claus. The role right now seems to might be going to Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson.

PROMETHEUS:

     In a bit of genius advertising for a film, the abandoned Saint-Martin subway stop in Paris has been turned into a mini LV-426 for a promotion for the upcoming film. Also the onslaught of 15 and 30 second promos for the film are airing on television with one 30 second spot being very interesting but creepy for a quick shot it shows.
