Nick Cage’s KNOWING Trailer
I’m not a huge fan of Nicolas Cage. I mean, he’s had a couple good movies, but it’s hard to imagine him in movies like Ghost Rider (awful!) and Next (haven’t seen it, but it LOOKED awful!).
Knowing actually looks pretty good, though. He’s playing a smart guy, which is the kind of guy we expect him to play. The fact that he has a piece of paper that predicts major disasters, and possibly the end of the world, is actually kind of intriguing. He doesn’t have any super powers, hasn’t made any pacts with the Devil, he just uses his brain to figure something out and that’s all we really need from him.

Eva Mendes Ready to Go Bad?
Eva Mendes is ready to be a Bad girl.
The actress is in talks to reunite with her Ghost Rider partner Nicolas Cage for Werner Herzog’s update of Abel Ferrara’s 1992 pulp classic, The Bad Lieutenant, Variety reports.
Little is known about the 34-year-old beauty’s role, but it should be a far cry from her and Cage’s family-friendly comic-book collaboration. If this Lieutenant is anything like its predecessor, expect plenty of skin, not to mention a heaping helping of profanity.
The original Bad Lieutenant starred Harvey Keitel as a corrupt New York detective with a penchant for gambling, drugs and sex, who decides to seek out redemption while investigating a nun’s rape.
Mendes next hits theaters in September, costarring with Meg Ryan and Annette Bening in a remake of George Cuckor’s The Women. That will be followed by another comic-based flick, Frank Miller’s The Spirit, due out at the end of the year.
Shooting on The Bad Lieutenant kicks off in late summer.
Jennifer Aniston: Welcome to Miami
Jennifer Aniston: Welcome to Miami
When actors and actresses have to relocate to shoot a film, usually they stay in high class hotels. But for her new movie “Marley and Me” scheduled to shoot on location in Miami, Florida, Jennifer Aniston wants some permanent digs.
The “Break-Up” starlet is said to be seeking out a new home in the sun-drenched southern city, rather than living out of a suitcase. And she would be joining a host of other celebrities who already own property in the area.
Stars like Matt Damon, Oprah Winfrey, Nicolas Cage, Madonna, and Lenny Kravitz would only be a stone’s throw away from Aniston’s front porch if she ends up buying a house in Miami.
She’d also be able to borrow a cup of sugar from Jennifer Lopez, Billy Joel, and Sylvester Stallone, depending on the neighborhood she chooses.
A friend of Aniston’s told press, “Jennifer loves it in Miami but is not keen on hotel living. She really wants to find a house.”
Attention all real estate agents in the Miami area - if you’re looking for a huge commission, get ahold of the ex-Friends babe, as she’s in the market!
Cage: Who’s Bad?
Nicolas Cage is headed to the dark side.
The City of Angels star is set to headline a remake of Abel Ferrara's 1992's pulp classic Bad Lieutenant, which will be helmed by famed German auteur Werner Herzog.
Per Variety, the 44-year-old Cage will slink into the role originated by Harvey Keitel, an NYPD detective who investigates the rape of a young nun all the while seeking forgiveness for a litany of his own sins, including heavy drug use, gambling and cavorting with prostitutes.
The original Lieutenant, directed by Ferrara from a screenplay he cowrote with Zoë Lund, was slapped with an NC-17 rating for its explicit language and hard-core sex scenes, like the one in which Keitel's lapsed Catholic copper masturbates in front of a teenage girl. The redo was written by Billy Finkelstein, a vet of small-screen police dramas like NYPD Blue and Law & Order.
Cage is currently in Australia shooting the time-capsule thriller Knowing with Rose Byrne. Cameras roll on Bad Lieutenant this summer.
