 published: 2013-03-15Billy Bob Thornton Could Sign On For The Judge With Robert Downey Jr. The Judge tells the story of a hot-shot lawyer (Downey Jr.) who returns to his hometown after being away for decades to attend his mother's funeral. When he arrives, however, he discovers that his estranged father, the local judge, is suspected of killing her.  filed under: Billy Bob Thornton
 published: 2012-11-26The Baytown Outlaws Gets Full Trailer, New Poster The Baytown Outlaws could and should be a ton of fun. On paper, it sounds like a Southern-fried Fargo, a double-barreled Grindhouse thriller set below the Mason-Dixon line. Even that first poster embraced its gritty, sleazy potential, turning a traditional Star Wars pose into a Smokey and the Bandit tribute. filed under: Billy Bob Thornton
 published: 2012-10-30Paul Giamatti And Billy Bob Thornton Join Tom Hanks' JFK Assassination Movie When Tom Hanks and Gary Goetzman first announced their intention to produce Peter Landesman’s proposed adaptation of Vincent Bugliosi’s Kennedy assassination book Reclaiming History, the project was billed as a meticulous character study with a real ensemble feel. Consequently, many speculated Parkland would probably steer clear of household names since there wouldn’t be any clear leads. It turns out that’s not the case. filed under: Billy Bob Thornton
 published: 2012-07-19Jayne Mansfield's Car International Trailer Showcases Star-studded Cast While the title Jayne Mansfield's Car might lead you to believe the vivacious blonde bombshell who met a tragic and early end is getting an adoring biopic in the vein of My Week With Marilyn, this Billy Bob Thornton-directed drama has little to do with Mansfield, instead focuses on two families brought together in grief. filed under: Billy Bob Thornton
 published: 2012-02-14Billy Bob Thornton Says Bad Santa 2 Is Starting Up This Year Bad Santa isn't a movie that needs a sequel. It's completely self-contained, has satisfying endings for all of the characters, and operates perfectly as a singular dark comedy. Sure, Willy is a great characters and it could be interesting to see him on another "adventure," but why risk creating something so awful that it would leave a bad taste... filed under: Billy Bob Thornton
 published: 2012-02-13Billy Bob Thornton's Next Directorial Project Is Inspired By Angelina Jolie Thornton described Drove as the story of "a guy who's on a road trip and picks up this girl along the way, and what happens to them. It's about the question of life: 'What is this? Where do I fit in?'" His producer, Rodnyansky, added, "I found the story amazing. It's a pretty new combination of genres to put into one movie. It's based on his personal experiences in many ways." filed under: Billy Bob Thornton
 published: 2012-02-05Billy Bob Thornton, Eva Longoria Grace The Baytown Disco Poster Why are we interested in this? And who is Barry Battles? Well, we’re not 100% sure yet, either. The actor whose primary credit is Boys of Summerville has one short on his directing resume (Mr. Extion), but he has cooked up a premise that has us pining for Raising Arizona-levels of Coen Brothers insanity. filed under: Billy Bob Thornton
 published: 2012-01-19James Marsden, Thomas Jane and Billy Bob Thornton To Battle A Bear In Red Machine Next week all of you will be able to go to theaters and watch the likes of Liam Neeson, Dermot Mulroney, Frank Grillo, Dallas Roberts and Nonso Anozie survive a plane crash and find themselves going head-to-head with a pack of wolves in the Alaskan wilderness that would love to eat all of them for dinner. But just in case that's not enough man vs. wild for you... filed under: Billy Bob Thornton
 published: 2011-07-15Bad Santa Becoming A Trilogy Producers of the 2003 hit and executives at Dimension Films are moving ahead on a potential sequel, they hinted that they might be ready to fill audience member's stockings with not one additional Santa but potentially two installments that would complete a devious trilogy. Up-and-coming writers Johnny Rosenthal and John Phillips have been hired to come up with two separate ideas for a sequel script. filed under: Billy Bob Thornton
 published: 2011-06-14Robert Duvall, John Hurt, Kevin Bacon And More Cast In Jane Mansfield's Car Color me excited. Thornton has sadly been labeled as the go-to guy when you need someone to play a foul-mouthed asshole, but his early career shows that he really is capable of a lot more. This is a pretty awesome cast that Thornton has set up, and I can only hope that Duvall and Hurt play patriarchs of their respective families and get to go head-to-head. The potential here is endless. filed under: Billy Bob Thornton
 published: 2011-04-17Billy Bob Thornton And Eva Longoria Join Redneck Abuse Comedy Baytown Disco The Bad Santa star and former foul-mouthed husband of Angelina Jolie has just boarded a new comedy about child abuse and redneck shenanigans. Called The Baytown Disco, it follows three hapless, white trash brothers who agree to help a hot chick get her son back from a father she claims has been abusing him. filed under: Billy Bob Thornton
 published: 2011-03-18Billy Bob Thornton Officially In Negotiations For Bad Santa 2 We couldn't agree more about Bad Santa being a Christmas perennial, but that still doesn't mean a sequel is necessary. Though really, who knows-- the movie is all about Thornton and his performance, and if he's on board and enthusiastic he might be able to bring the magic yet again filed under: Billy Bob Thornton
