First Image of Bill Murray as FDR in HYDE PARK ON THE HUDSON; Set Photos from GANGSTER SQUAD
Franklin D. Roosevelt was a pretty bad ass President if I do say so myself. Bill Murray is a pretty bad ass...just...person in general. So when I found out Bill Murray was playing FDR...well...just...it's amazing really. The film in which we will see such a perfect pairing is Hyde Park on the Hudson, which focuses on Roosevelt's affair with his cousin, Daisy, during a weekend in 1939 which marked the first ever visit to America by a British monarchy when King George VI and Queen Elizabeth visited FDR's upstate New York cottage. Olivia Williams will be playing FDR's wife Elanor while Laura Linney will play Daisy. Here is the first image of FDR, courtesy of USA Today
After the jump, check out the set photos from Gangster Squad.

Robert Duvall joining Tom Cruise in ONE SHOT; Rooney Mara being cast in the OLDBOY remake?
I know absolutely nothing about the film One Shot. All I know is Tom Cruise is starring in it, and generally, that would leave me a tad worried. But. BUT. After actually looking into what this film is all about, I'm actually pretty interested. Richard Jenkins joined the cast last week, and now Variety reports that Robert Duvall is now on board. Count me in. According to Variety, Duvall has a small but pivotal role which is significant to Tom Cruise's character Jack Reacher and his investigation into a sniper accused of murdering five people. I guess this is probably where I post the synopsis for the film, which will be directed by Christopher McQuarrie based off of the novel by Lee Child's.
Six shots. Five dead. One heartland city thrown into a state of terror. But within hours the cops have it solved: a slam-dunk case. Except for one thing. The accused man says: You got the wrong guy. Then he says: Get Reacher for me.And sure enough, ex—military investigator Jack Reacher is coming. He knows this shooter–a trained military sniper who never should have missed a shot. Reacher is certain something is not right–and soon the slam-dunk case explodes.Now Reacher is teamed with a beautiful young defense lawyer, moving closer to the unseen enemy who is pulling the strings. Reacher knows that no two opponents are created equal. This one has come to the heartland from his own kind of hell. And Reacher knows that the only way to take him down is to match his ruthlessness and cunning–and then beat him shot for shot.
The film will be released February 8, 2013, and also stars Rosamund Pike and David Oyelowo. After the break I'll go over the rumors involving the Oldboy remake.
