Woody Harrelson And Forest Whitaker Join Out Of The Furnace As Production Begins

Everything about this movie sounds covered in coal dust and misery, but I wonder if Cooper will be able to give it the necessary grit-- his Crazy Heart got a lot of details right about country music, but it was also a little glossier and more sentimental than you might expect...

Woody Harrelson Circling Out Of The Furnace With Christian Bale And Casey Affleck

From the biggest of Hollywood blockbusters like The Hunger Games to made for TV movies like HBO Films' Game Change, Woody Harrelson manages to find himself in a bit of everything. And deservedly so since the actor almost always delivers a compelling performance.

Zoe Saldana Could Join Scott Cooper's Out Of The Furnace

Zoe Saldana Could Join Scott Cooper's Out Of The Furnace

Director Scott Cooper's Out of the Furnace doesn't sound like the most original project we've ever heard of. The film follows an ex-con who, upon being released from prison, goes on a mission for revenge, hunting down the man that killed his younger brother. For example, the movie sounds incredibly similar to Faster, the 2010 action film starring Dwayne Johnson (which wasn't bad, but certainly not something to try and imitate less than two years later)....

Christian Bale Being Eyed For Oldboy, A Star Is Born And More

Though he's been playing Batman since 2005, Christian Bale has not allowed himself to be identified solely by character. Though his performances as the Dark Knight have been incredibly memorable, Bale has also put on stellar performances in movies like The Prestige, 3:10 To Yuma and The Fighter in the time since (the last in the list giving him his first Academy Award)....

Crazy Heart Director Scott Cooper Moves On To Crime Thriller Out Of The Furnace

Crazy Heart Director Scott Cooper Moves On To Crime Thriller Out Of The Furnace

The tone of the script is being compared to No Country For Old Men's spare, harsh vibe, a big contrast to the music-filled, somewhat sentimental Crazy Heart. It's unclear when production might star on this, but I'm anxious to see what Cooper does next...
