Pretty Boy Floyd Film Has Robbed A Director Writer-director Wayne Kramer has signed on to helm the crime thriller “ Pretty Boy Floyd " for Myriad Pictures. Kevin Bernhardt wrote the screenplay based on the notorious gangster and bank robber, whose full name was Charles Arthur Floyd. “Pretty Boy” committed numerous robberies and other crimes around Kansas City and the Midwest in the late ’20s and ’30s -- obtaining the populist nickname “ The Robin Hood of the Cookson Hills ” along the way -- before his death in 1934 at age 30. “My approach is to bring 21st century style and energy to Kevin Bernhardt’s meticulously researched screenplay without sacrificing the verisimilitude of the period or over-sensationalizing the characters themselves,” says Kramer. “At the heart of ‘Pretty Boy Floyd’ is a great love story about an outlaw on the run who can’t stay away from the woman he loves, no matter how destructive the relationship is for both of them -- which ultimately leads to his

The Social Network Teaser Trailer Columbia Pictures has just released the very first teaser trailer for its upcoming film, The Social Network . Like the poster that debuted last week, the teaser is sparse in its detail, but intriguing and provocative at the same time. The Social Network, otherwise known as “the Facebook (Facebook) movie,” is based in part on the book The Accidental Billionaires. It chronicles the formative days of Facebook, from its founding in Mark Zuckerberg’s Harvard dorm room through its early rise to success. Written by Aaron Sorkin and directed by David Fincher, the film stars Jesse Eisenberg as Zuckerberg. It hits theaters this October. Watch the trailer after the jump.. The tag line for the film, “ You can’t make 500 million friends without making a few enemies ” seems to sum up some of those early days, and the film is as much an exploration of young people coming to terms with creating something bigger than themselves as much as it is about loyalty,

The Martian Chronicles Ready To Become A Film Fox-based producer Jon Davis , who helped bring the world Alien Vs Predator and I Robot , has grabbed up the rights to Ray Bradbury’s The Martian Chronicles has apparently been optioned and  plans to turn it into a movie. The book, published in 1950, has been adapted for the screen before, albeit the smaller one: it was the source material for a miniseries that featured Rock Hudson and Bernadette Peters. Now, though, with Avatar’s after effects (not to mention profits) pulsing through executives’ veins and budgets, you’ve got to figure Fox might just leap at the idea of bringing Bradbury’s effective prose to cinemas. Chronicles charts various human journeys to Mars and the interactions they end up having with the natives, not all of them friendly. But while the writer layered in a healthy subtext of philosophical curiosity, we’re not sure that would survive the translation into a movie. Please Leave A Comment- Source- LATimes
