I mean it's not quite as gruesome as I would have liked but then when you have someone as handsome and marketable as Josh Brolin, I guess what did we expect really? It's kind of the Johnny Depp syndrome, you need to be able to see how handsome he is, even if he is playing a notoriously ugly and social outcast (Sweeny Todd, Ichabad Crane, the detective out of From Hell who's name escapes me right now). A sign of the times then that Jonah Hex is being made into a Hollywood movie, a sign that Hollywood is embracing a return for the Spaghetti Western? I'm really hoping they can pull this one off, you all know I've got a hard on for Sergio Leone movies and well I'm desperate to see The Dark Tower made into a film series, or at least the first book The Gunslinger adapted faithfully, and this is the closest we are going to get to that right now. Hex might just spark J.J. Abrams to give that franchise which he owns the rights too, a little push of his powerful magic wand. Gotta think there's lots of post-production CGI to follow on Brolin's face, he looks like he has fallen into a bees nest rather than the hideous disfigurment it needs to be. Horton Hears A Who director Jimmy Hayward is helming... Megan Fox (love interest), John Malkovich (as the villain), Will Arnett and Michael Shannon make up the core cost of the 2010 summer tentpole. source - aicn (via lainey gossip)
