George Lucas offers a somewhat straightforward encapsulation of his “ consultant ” part in Disney ’s future Star Wars film :
“ [ If the filmmakers ask],‘Who ’s this guy ? ’ I can tell them . I entail , they have a hundred encyclopedias and things , but I in reality roll in the hay a lot . I can say , ‘ This is this and this is that . ’ fundamentally I ’m not – I do n’t really have much to do . ”
[ Coming Soon ]

Meanwhile , legendary makeup designer Rick Baker says he wants back in on the Star Wars dealership , and he offers a rather weighty argument as to why the serial needs to get back to at least a small bit of its hard-nosed effects roots :
“ I think the job that people have with the digital stuff is the trouble I have : Just because you could do anything does n’t mean that you should . Instead of experience a starship struggle with three spaceships , they have 3,000 spaceship . Everything is so bragging and there ’s so much live on on , you mislay realism . It charter you out of it . ”

reasonably lost in the shambling of the heavy announcement thatChronicle ’s Dane DeHaan is playing Harry Osbornwas the other , possibly even bigger news that Collateral and Django Unchained genius Jamie Foxx is indeed playing the villain Electro in the subsequence . Here ’s what Foxx has to say about it all :

“ Electro is a great case . I meet with the director , Mark Webb , I met with Andrew Garfield , and we talked … I think Electro will be an exciting reference to play because he ’s a … genius electrician - type person , and he gets the short end of the reefer from the whole world , and the next affair you love he turns it on . ”

Wolverine actor Hugh Jackman has confirmed that he has “ been lecture to [ manager ] Bryan [ Singer ] about doing something in this . ” His phraseology and modulation suggest it ’s for more than this three - Holy Scripture cameo in X - Men : First Class , but perhaps less than the apparently substantial supporting roles that Patrick Stewart and Ian MacKellen will have as the older Professor Charles Xavier and Magneto . Anyway , nothing is definite , but the fact that Jackman is utter about it all indicates there ’s a moderately comme il faut chance that Wolverine will indeed show up in some capacity . [ come shortly ]
Seventh Doctor Sylvester McCoy discusses his forthcoming role as the virtuoso Radagast the Brown :

He ’s a necromancer , for commencement . He lives in the woodland . He ’s more of a solitudinarian , really , and he pass with animals , and he kind of care for the forest and the flora and the creature , and he see something – that the forest is in danger , and he has to act cursorily and come out of his smooth , lone yet glad macrocosm and try and do something about it . His closeness to the animals is very helpful to himself and others . It was exciting , really . At first , Peter was doing these log from the studio and putting them out on YouTube , and they sustain keep me a secret . He say , “ You ’re our trivial secret . ” So that was quite fun to be the little arcanum , the little surprise , maybe .
So what is the relationship like between the two wizards – Gandalf and Radagast ?
Well , Saruman the White dislikes Radagast and thinks him a fool , but Gandalf the Grey , he has an wonderment for Radagast . He knows that although he ’s a bit of a bumbling , sweet little previous soft touch , that he has steel inside of him when promote come to shove . I recall they ’re cousins , if I remember rightly . So we ’ve got kind of rakehell joining .

He also hint at a larger mystery around Radagast ’s reference , because what would a Sylvester McCoy character be without hint of declamatory mystery :
If you know your “ Lord of the Rings , ” you might recognize [ Radagast ’s stave ] . You ’ll have to wait and see what happens in the next three years . You ’ll find out about that staff . It ’s quite important eventually . It ’s a enigma . I do n’t require to give it all out .
I ’m calling it justly now — that staff is really the Hand of Omega . Look , if you could come up with a way of aggrandize The Hobbit out into three movies that does n’t involve a random Dalek invasion , I ’d wish to take heed it . Anyway , there ’s a bunch more at the link . [ Hero Complex ]

After J.J. Abrams used his appearing on Conan to preview an full three frame from the movie , Spock histrion Zachary Quinto decided to use his visual aspect to show a more substantial clip . Except , of course , this is Conan we ’re talking about , so it ’s all an elaborate windup to an by choice giant letdown — at least if you in reality expected to see a clip from the movie . So , no news here , but you may check out the fair amusing clipping at the link . [ Team Coco ]
Longtime Fast and the savage series screenwriter Chris Morgan discuss Arnold Schwarzenegger ’s return to his first iconic theatrical role as an age Conan confronting his warrior mortality :
“ [ It ’s ] not a reboot , not a remake . Just an update . Where has the graphic symbol been all this time ? A catch - up with Conan . He ’s not going out and fighting battle , but he ends up getting take up into something , ” Morgan explained . “ And he has to reach the barbarian he was in his early days . I love that Conan has been many things in his life , notably a pirate , a major tactician and a commanding officer of man . In this moving picture , we ’re going to pink into some of those thing – things you have n’t seen on covert yet . ”

Morgan also makes it clear that the movie wo n’t seek to rip off around the fact that Schwarzenegger is n’t the peak physical specimen he once was — which is n’t to say that Schwarzenegger could n’t still kick my ass , because I have no doubt that he totally could — and it ’s indispensable to the assumption that Schwarzenegger play the part as he looks now , without CGI enhancement :
“ I want the warrior whose joints have begin to coalesce together , who has to break the cartilage so he can pick up a steel again . I need the guy who ’s not necessarily lost a dance step , but there ’s some rust he has to shake up off . I want to comprehend that . It makes it a greater hero report . Conan needs to be faced with challenges . The sterling challenge to him is n’t the armies that are ready before him . It ’s , on some level , self - doubt , a little bit of slowing down and coerce yourself to be heroical beyond what people expect of you . What I do n’t require is for him to pace back in and search the same . That would defeat the purpose of our news report ”
Morgan is just producing the project for the clip being , though he says he hope to compose it if his agenda allows for it , or else work closely with whoever he pick to pen the screenplay . [ Hero Complex ]

28 Weeks subsequently director Juan Carlos Fresnadillo has reportedly exited Summit ’s plan Ryan Reynolds - star reboot of the 1986 Queen soundtrack , which I ’m told also involved a movie of some sort . The split was reportedly due to creative difference over how best to approach the material , with “ Eh … mayhap just leave it alone ” apparently not an option for either political party .

Executive manufacturer Julie Plec explains why Matt and Jeremy wo n’t be spending a whole lot of time together , despite now being roommates :
“ Unfortunately , we do n’t in reality get to see them in action for a while . In [ Episode 9 ] , Jeremy gets ship off to the lake mansion for treatment . They ’re in a quandary , which is that he have it away his sister and she ’s the one somebody he ’d love to kill more than anybody , so … when we get to Episode 9 we ’ll see that Elena has enlisted Bonnie to help .
