Sofia Coppola, the immensely gifted daughter of legendary director Francis Ford Coppola, has at her young age already won a fair share of accolades for her first two films, The Virgin Suicides and Lost In Translation. In her third movie Marie Antoinette, she stays true to her pattern of focusing on complex young women, but sets her story in 18th century France.
French website DVD Rama has an interview with Christophe Gans, in which the director of Brotherhood of the Wolf and Silent Hill reveals that Roger Avary (Pulp Fiction, Silent Hill) and fantasy author Neil Gaiman will jointly pen a Silent Hill 2 script.
Avary will join the project right after he concludes his Driver script, while Gans indicated he may not return to the director’s chair because he is busy prepping Onimusha, another video game adaptation.

Director Chris Nolan will commence principal photography on his Batman Begins sequel, The Dark Knight, this spring, with the role of district attorney Harvey Dent a.k.a. Two Face confirmed but currently uncast.

I am a little leary of the situation. The truth will come out when, and if the US economy, and the dollar begins to strengthen. If prices remain high, you’ll know someone is lying.
