The Debt, Stardust, Kick-Ass, the first Kingsman and First Class mostly. Also The Limehouse Golem was underrated.
Although The Woman in Black was bad, and Miss Peregrine got there quite a bit late into the film.£
Pretty much how I feel. I'm especially fond of her collabs with Vaughn.Master Virgo wrote: ↑November 1st, 2018, 5:04 pmThe Debt, Stardust, Kick-Ass, the first Kingsman and First Class mostly. Also The Limehouse Golem was underrated.
Watts as the lead, hell fucking yeah
How long is this going to take to get on TV though, I figure quite some years?

“Taking place thousands of years before the events of Game of Thrones, the series chronicles the world’s descent from the golden Age of Heroes into its darkest hour. And only one thing is for sure: from the horrifying secrets of Westeros’s history to the true origin of the white walkers, the mysteries of the East to the Starks of legend… it’s not the story we think we know.”
First up is the director. After a long search, British director S.J. Clarkson has been tapped for the show’s pilot. Clarkson most recently directed and produced the BBC/Netflix production Collateral and she’s directed episodes of Orange Is the New Black, Dexter, Bates Motel,and the pilot for Jessica Jones. Clarkson has also been announced as directing the next big-screen Star Trek film. She joins the prequel’s previously announced showrunner Jane Goldman (Kick-Ass, X-Men: First Class) in crafting the first episode, which will be shot later this year.
As for the cast, Naomi Watts was previously announced to lead the series as “a charismatic socialite hiding a dark secret.” Interestingly, women have also been cast in the project’s next two largest roles as well. None of the new roles have descriptions, however, and the show does not yet have an official title (author and co-creator of the series George R.R. Martin has lobbied for The Long Night).
Naomi Ackie: British actress with a leading upcoming role in Star Wars: Episode IX, and received accolades for her debut film role in 2017’s Lady Macbeth. She was also in the film Yardie and the Channel 4 series The Bisexual.

Shella Atim: Award-winning British stage actress who was a series regular in Hulu’s Harlots.
Ivanno Jeremiah: Britsh actor whose credits include AMC’s Humans, Netflix’s Black Mirror,and stars in the upcoming film The Flood.
