Spot-on casting of Henry C by the look of it too.
Yeah Henry Cavill absolute drips with "movie star x factor" hes an absolute joy to watch.
It was a well put together trailer as it really piqued my interest and whet my appetite for this films release.
As for the rest...not sure. It did not feel much like the original, and the tone of the movie did remind me of Ritchie's Sherlock movies.
It also seems to be very European based, which is another reason for me it did not feel much like the original.
I am not a huge fan of the original show, so that does not bother me too much though...it has potential.
Trailer didn't knock me out, but I didn't hate it either.
No I'm saying I'm glad that Cavill has managed to get notable work outside Superman. There's been a worry that Cavill would become typecast. Even though he's been really well known to Hollywood producers for a good part of a decade (since he was considered for Bond and Batman), he hasn't done much since. The Cold Light of Day was pretty terrible. I've been worried that Cavill doesn't have much range beyond the stoic Superman look (which he does very well). But it's good to see from this trailer that he would've been a good Bond also.
Oh, I see. Thanks so much for making that clarification. Much appreciated.
oh yeah , maybe they'll have cameos .
can someone just confirm - Samuel Jackson isn't in this is he ?
I hope hes reconsidered for the role of Bond in the future.I think hed be perfect.
Im a big fan
I think he's maybe shot himself in the foot in that regard by taking on the 'Man From UNCLE' role, which was seen as a spoof of the Bond films. Interestingly, the show's creator had approached Ian Fleming for help with some ideas.
Neither do I as I really liked his film snatch?
Vaughn isn't. Very frail even when doing the last Hustle eps.
Wonder how Tarantino feels about this? He might've produced a film of his that I actually wanted to watch unlike everything since Kill Bill Pt. 1.
But with Mortdecai, and Kingsman already out, and a new Bond for later this year,
will audiences succumb to spy fatigue?
Interesting.I do think Henry Cavill would have been perfect for the role of James Bond,I still think he is and its indeed still possible.Perhaps film execs will see beyond this current role and see the possibility that in the long run it can be transcended without too many problems?Thats my hope anyway.
That would be a concern of mine too but I think such a good tempting trailer as this is may help bring the audiences in.
Its biggest threat is Mission: Impossible 5, which has been brought forward to July 31 (we should see a trailer soon). This takes it away from its previous Xmas release, and yes, people have been mumbling that Star Wars is the reason.
IIRC, Cavill was still in mind for a potential Bond if Craig steps down, but was told he couldn't be after taking the Superman role. Presumably he'd be doing Superman for quite a number of films, and you couldn't have the same actor playing Bond and Superman at the same time. Something like that anyway. You can certainly see Bond in him, so to speak.
Does anyone know the UK release date of Man From Uncle?
14 August. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1638355/releaseinfo
That's a few weeks after MI5 so I can't see it affecting it at the box office
Don;t forget Spooks - the Movie. Out in April or May I think
The only downside for me with the new film is that Hugh Grant is in it.I really detest his one-note acting so I'll have to look away when he's on screen.
