Oldboy remake

It has been declared and printed, according to UK Press Association, Elizabeth Olsen is still mulling over the idea of taking an offered role for the Old Boy Remake. A film with so many twists and turns, it will surely win over the American audience, even if the twist can be so… dark.

Elizabeth Olsen has had a great two years so far, starring in a very well received film Martha Marcy May Marlene. The limelight is shining down on this new up and comer and what better film to take up than that of Old Boy. Like Rooney Mara with The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, she can stretch her wings and just take a chance in a movie that has edge. In the same sense, but no comparing to Mara, she should break from the common mold and push her range. Many new actresses play it safe with block buster, plot lacking, teen hot bodies infused movies. I would love for her to make it alright for someone to believe that a new Meryl Streep is in the making.

Old Boy is being remade by Spike Lee, and so far has had bad luck with the casting process. Originally Collin Firth was offered the role of the antagonist yet he did not take the offer. Rooney Mara was offered the female lead but turned it down in fear of being type casted. unsecured loans   According to the Huffington post -Will Smith was attached to star, only if Steven Spielberg directed it, the two soon left the project. Josh Brolin signed at the same time Spike Lee took on the project, and now it is just down to finding the right villain and female side kick.

Old Boy was from a Korean movie adapted from a graphic novel. A story of a man, kidnapped and held for 15 years only to be released with no explanation for his confinement. The years give him perspective on his life, how he lived it, and piece together clues as to who he wronged. Unknown to him, his confinement was just the beginning of his punishment. I would love to give out the ending cause I am just brimming excitement, but I do not want to ruin it for the rest. Also the fact that bad credit loans the American version is going to be tweaked, I am not sure if its right to give away the ending when it could be a different ending all together for this new version.

I guess we will just have to wait…. I just hope she does not turn it down and the part goes to the dreaded Megan Fox… bleh!!!!!
