Hope you haven't OD'd on Matt Damon yet! Just yesterday I showed you a preview of his upcoming Jason Bourne-esque action flick, Green Zone and today we get a peek at Invictus. In the upcoming film from Clint Eastwood, Damon stars as a Francois Pienaar, real-life member of South Africa's rugby team who's summoned by Nelson Mandela (Morgan Freeman) to rally support in the country and unite the racial divide.

Indeed. And by extension, audiences deserve a better class of villain.

A few things Wanted is not: quiet or steadily shot. It's also not all that enjoyable. But then again, I'm surely not the target audience for this film.

Clint Eastwood is set to direct a script based on the true-life events documented in the book, The Human Factor: Nelson Mandela and the Game that Changed the World by John Carlin. Matt Damon will play star rugby player Francois Pienaar who befriended Nelson Mandela (who, as we learned a while back, will be portrayed by Morgan Freeman) during the run-up to a game that "gave whites and blacks in South Africa a common cause to rally around as the country was trying to heal from the wounds of apartheid."
Morgan Freeman is producing the film, and he first sought Mandela's blessing before approaching Eastwood.

Finally! The Dark Knight trailer currently being shown before I Am Legend in theaters is online in a version that's not a shaky bootleg taken with someone's camera phone!
However, so far the only versions of the 6-minute clip from the Dark Knight, also shown before I Am Legend, are those jerky, low-quality bootlegs, like this one.

Just this week we got ahold of some stills from the James McAvoy/Angelina Jolie/Morgan Freeman action movie Wanted, and now there's a full-length trailer to go along with them. If nothing else, this movie is impeccably cast. Angelina does her usual catlike sexy action star thing while Morgan Freeman is all-knowing and no-nonsense.

It doesn't open until March 28, 2008 but the new photo stills from the film Wanted have piqued my interest in the film in a big way. In particular, I'm talking about this crazy image with the shattering glass and David O'Hara's face which I find to be awful and completely mesmerizing all at once.
The stills are from Empire and they feature some pretty great — and greatly attractive — actors, like James McAvoy, Angelina Jolie and Morgan Freeman.

There are certainly some lovable things about Feast of Love. I love Morgan Freeman. I love the peaceful Oregon setting.

As I mentioned in my romantic roundup of fall movies, Feast of Love is a little romantic drama starring Morgan Freeman, Greg Kinnear and Selma Blair. It takes place in Oregon and focuses on Bradley's (Kinnear) terrible luck with the ladies and how he learns all sorts of lessons on love from the various people in his life. Going out on a limb here, I assume Freeman's character doles out endless bits of sage advice.
