Hey folks, Harry here... I don't have a lot of love for 20th Century Fox and their output of late, but even a carbunkle like me has to admit things seem to be looking, at least, interesting in the House of Rothman. The once dreary concept of a sequel to FANTASTIC FOUR - seems to at least have a silvery glimmer of a reason to be hopeful. Then there's the awe and wonder that will one day be unleashed like the Kraken upon cinema screens... yes, James Cameron's AVATAR.

However, one of the most exciting prospects is... another Baz Luhrmann film. It's a shame that his ALEXANDER has joined the famed "where'd it go" bird, the DoDo. But when he was talking about that film - he was talking of an "EPIC TRILOGY" that he was wanting to embark upon.

Here - he's telling an epic story that follows, "an English aristocrat (Kidman) who inherits a sprawling ranch and reluctantly pacts with a cattle driver (Jackman) to protect her new property from a takeover plot. As the pair drive 2,000 head of cattle over unforgiving landscape, they experience the bombing of Darwin by Japanese forces." - according to The Hollywood Reporter

The film is set to star Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman as a pair - plotting to save her vast estate - and David Wenham is playing the "moderate bad guy" that wants her land. Of course, I'm betting all that amounts to a hill of beans once the Japanese begin bombing away - which should make for one helluva third act.

BUT - think about this... this won't be like Baz's previous films - he's wanting to strike out in a new cinematic journey. Gone will be the red curtain cinema we love. Personally - I'm incredibly excited by this new direction for Baz and his cinematic ambitions.
