MOVIE NEWS

CASINO ROYALE

The first photo of new Bond villain Le Chiffre has been revealed (see right), being played by Mads Mikkelson.

R.I.P.D

Director David Dobkin (Wedding Crashers) will helm an adaptation of a 'Darko Horse' comic, entitled R.I.P.D. The movie is about a cop, Nick Cruz, who is killed in his prime and enlisted by a divine law enforcement agency to catch restless spirits and hideous monsters. Think Men In Black meets Ghostbusters!
