THE MOL GOES WEST
James Mangold's wreck-bound "3:10 TO YUMA" is starting to look a bit like a veritable Little Engine that Could. You may remember from our prior update that Sony Pictures dropped the proposed (and may we add woefully misguided) remake of director Delmer Daves and writer Elmore Leonard's western classic "3:10 TO YUMA" for reasons unknown, even though Maximus Decimus Meridius himself (read: Russell Crowe) was attached to play a latter day Ben Wade and both Tom Cruise (Maverick) and Eric Bana (The Incredible Hulk) were allegedly interested in roles in the film. Eventually, the project landed at latter day horror-house Lionsgate, who've added Christian Bale and just trimmed 3:10's budget from around $80 million to around $50 million in the process.
"Safe! Who knows what's safe? I knew a man dropped dead from lookin' at his wife. My own grandmother fought the Indians for sixty years... then choked to death on lemon pie. Do I have two volunteers?"
The folks at Lionsgate have also announced that NOTORIOUS BETTIE PAGE revelation Gretchen Mol, the legendary Peter Fonda, and someone named Dallas Roberts have also joined 3:10's cast, and that all the shooting (and if Mangold is to be taken at his word, there will be a hellova lot of it) is scheduled to start this October.
Damn, that picture is hot!
Where do you find this stuff.

Couldn't it also be a capture from THE NOTORIOUS BETTIE PAGE DVD?
