Take a break from work: watch a trailer… So, not a sequel to Repo Man, then… 51 seconds into the trailer, I’m guessing this will be the “big twist”: Jude Law (or Forest Whitaker) secretly has a mortgaged replacement organ, and Forest Whitaker (or Jude Law) will be forced to repo it from his best … more…
So, we have Benicio Del Toro about to land as the Wolfman, and now we get word that Sam Worthington may be playing Dracula in a Summer 2011 flick.
