Ian McShane (Deadwood) has joined the cast of Paul W.S. Anderson’s Death Race, says The Hollywood Reporter.
The film sees a future America in which prison inmates are forced to brutally compete in an enclosed arena. Statham will play a prisoner who, with only weeks to go before his release, is coerced into being a driver and becomes the crowd favorite called Frankenstein. Allen will play the warden of the prison who runs the race and ruthlessly forces Statham to enter the arena. McShane will play a coach, while Gibson is a sociopathic racer named Machine Gun Joe who seeks to escape from prison.
The remake of the Roger Corman cult classic, which also stars Jason Statham, Joan Allen and Tyrese Gibson, is pencilled in for a September 26, 2008 release.

IGN Movies via one of their most trusted sources claims that writer-director J.J. Abrams is looking for an A-list star cameo for his upcoming reboot of the Star Trek franchise.
Apparently, Abrams is wooing none other than his Mission Impossible III star Tom Cruise. The role would be that of Captain Pike. But Cruise has yet to agree to the offer.
Pike was James T. Kirk’s predecessor as captain of the U.S.S. Enterprise and Mr. Spock’s first commanding officer. Pike was the captain in the original and unaired TV pilot, The Cage, where he was portrayed by the late Jeffrey Hunter.

Three years after Revenge of the Sith, Star Wars is back in theaters with a new twist. Never ones to let go of a dollar without a fight, Lucas and company kick off a TV series that doesn’t quite feel like Star Wars.

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. Either OPEC doesn’t have the supply they claim they have, or Analysts are incorrect when they say demand has decreased. Personally, I don’t buy the claim that demand has decreased. Population is ever increasing, so, the the demand should always be increasing.
