Upcoming IR slate

[darkcurry]

I'm very aware there are zero black actresses in Tenet. That's why I'm so fucking pump for it. A $250 million blockbuster by one of this century's greatest directors that is rumored to be a high concept story which happens to have a black male as the lead is the type of shit I've been thirsting for. But the huge cherry on the top is the absence of black women. That means it's a project in which a leading black male character isn't handcuffed to a black woman, which is a rarity in itself these days. Most of all it means black twitter won't try to champion a black actress over the lead black actor which happens all the time. GOD BLESS CHRISTOPHER NOLAN! Because 4 out of 5 directors would have made that character a black woman of made that character a white guy and made the leading female black or after making the lead guy black they would have given him a non-white female co-star. Again though this is a topic I need to discuss in some other thread.

And Christopher Nolan has a good track record of making blockbusters just by adding his name to a project alone. One of the very few directors that can do that in Hollywood. That's why studios are willing to give him $100's of millions of dollars to make movies. I also heard one of the internet theories on this super secretive movie that it maybe a sequel to Inception.



Black Twitter is one of the most annoying things about social media. But I'll save THAT for another thread. lol.

Been slow to update with some new shit I've come across.


Farming

Damson Idris
Skye Lourie

This movie made its debut at a film festival last year or early this year. Its finally has gotten a trailer and thus it be confirmed there is an IR at its center.

Story is based on the true life tale of its writer/director Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje. I won't bother with typing out details because the trailer below tells us all we need to know.

Looks interesting.

Its black woman Twitter at this point. They rarely cheer for black men unless attached to black women in some way.

True... but you're forgetting about their stans that don't like you coming for their black queens and the gay black men that are also a part of black twitter.

I think you automatically put both those groups in the Black Woman box. Hell, I do at least.

Which is why I said we should just call this collective The Black Gynocracy. If you ever seen that video we have posted here before he breaks it down honestly and raw.

Same Time, Next Christmas

Charles Michael Davis
Lea Michele

https://deadline.com/2019/08/bryan-...ay-movie-same-time-next-christmas-1202664657/


Bryan Greenberg (The Mindy Project) and The Originals alum Charles Michael Davis are set as the male leads opposite Lea Michele in ABC’s holiday movie Same Time, Next Christmas, from Freeform Studios.

In the movie, Michele plays Olivia Henderson, a young woman who met her childhood sweetheart, played by Davis, during her family’s annual Christmas visit to Hawaii. After being separated by distance and years, the two reunite at the same Hawaii resort years later and the old chemistry between them flares up anew – but circumstances conspire to keep them apart.



I am certain that a few of you are going to fret over the whole threesome aspect of this story because of the PSTD you''ve been suffering from whenever a black male's onscreen relationship is burdened with the inclusion of a white male suitor for the lady. Still I think considering the predictability of these types of romance stories, it would seem the Davis character will probably win out. but even if he doesn't this setup qualifies the film to be included in this thread.

It does qualify to be mention in the thread and forum of course because we don't know. But the track record isn't good for brothas. lol. Plus "love" triangles are not entertaining to audiences looking for love to conquer.

But you're right he does seem like the guy to win. I don't want to jump to any conclusions though.

I hope their chemistry translates well onscreen. This is how you get casted to do other projects together.

I said I would provide updates for the Invisible Man movies as they come considering the disagreement on the trajectory of a potential specific relationship. Here's the latest.


http://collider.com/the-invisible-man-remake-plot-synopsis/

The film centers on Cecilia Kass (Elisabeth Moss), a woman trapped in a violent, controlling relationship with a wealthy and brilliant scientist. She escapes in the dead of night and disappears into hiding, aided by her sister (Harriet Dyer), their childhood friend (Aldis Hodge) and his teenage daughter (Storm Reid). But when Cecilia’s abusive ex (Oliver Jackson-Cohen) commits suicide and leaves her a generous portion of his vast fortune, Cecilia suspects his death was a hoax. As a series of eerie coincidences turn lethal, threatening the lives of those she loves, Cecilia’s sanity begins to unravel as she desperately tries to prove that she is being hunted by someone nobody can see.

So new details support the original reports of an abusive relationship as I remarked on before. Its both a physically and mentally abusive relationship. They also tell us:

1-Our heroine is "trapped" at first in this relationship and has to "escape" from this setup when an opportunity arises.
2-That Hodge's character is a childhood friend who helps her when she flees from her boyfriend.
3-That the boyfriend apparently commits suicide which our leading lady believes to be a hoax.

Now I see #2 as a support for my supposition that Hodge and Moss' characters have romantic feelings for one another, two former childhood buds (or perhaps sweethearts) who finally express their feelings for each other or rekindle a spark after their reuniting. The fact that he is a widower, as described in an earlier announcement, means there is no relationship barrier in the way for such a hookup. However if someone wants to take an opposite viewpoint that the reason Hodge's character has feelings for her, as also previously claimed in an earlier studio announcement release, is because of a platonic friendship bond the characters share, such a view is not entirely unreasonable.

But let's end any charade that Moss' character is being paired with the guy playing the Invisible Man. Not even in the 1950s would Hollywood have a leading lady choose to be with a man who was physically and emotionally abusive to her, a man she ran away from for her life in the dead of night, a man she is obviously so afraid of and so worried about that she doubts the news of his death. And if Hollywood wasn't going to do such a thing back in those days, it certainly isn't doing in 2019/2020.

Macbeth

Denzel Washington and Frances Mcdormand

https://variety.com/2019/film/news/denzel-washington-frances-mcdormand-macbeth-joel-coen-1203173916/


The iconic Shakespeare tale follows a lord (Washington) who’s convinced by a trio of witches that he’s destined to become the king of Scotland. With the help of his ambitious wife (McDormand), Macbeth tries to seize the crown by any means necessary.


Not a sexy casting but a stellar one! These two have 5 oscars between them. They should hit this legendary play out the park.

First look and some details about Kristen Stewart's Seberg from Venice Film festival.

How the relationship between her and Jamal(Anthony Mackie) started is detailed in this review from the film festival.(WARNING: some spoilers)
While living it up in first class, this lilywhite girl from Marshalltown, Iowa just happens to cross paths with Hakim Jamal (Anthony Mackie), an outgoing but controversial leader of the Black Power movement. They make eyes at each other, and Seberg decides to join the handsome stranger for a widely publicized salute when they touch down in California (an awkwardly staged moment in a movie that’s full of them). She drives over to Jamal’s Compton house that night because she wants to “make a difference.” And she will — once they’re done having sex.

Hilary Swank Michael Ealy - Fatale

Ealy will portray a married man who is tricked into a murder scheme by a seductive female police detective, played by Swank. Colter plays Ealy’s best friend and business partner.

Fatale centers on a married man who finds himself living a nightmare as he is relentlessly compromised, out-witted and morally manipulated by a mysterious woman with whom he had a wild one-night stand. How far will he go to save his marriage from his mistake?

Lexa Gluck(Vermillion from Legion) plays his wife

The film also stars Mike Colter.

LOL, you're right. When it comes to mainstream professional IR porn, I actually prefer the sites that I grew-up on: Bangbros, Brazzers, Naughty America, Reality Kings, & etc. over Blacked.
