Quote

Oscar winner Anthony Hopkins (The Two Popes) and rising Brit actor Johnny Flynn (Emma) are attached to star in One Life, a feature drama based on the true story of British humanitarian Nicholas Winton who helped save hundreds of children from the Nazis on the eve of World War Two.

Lucinda Coxon (The Danish Girl) and Nick Drake (Romulus) have co-written the screenplay based on the extraordinary story of Nicholas ‘Nicky’ Winton who, when just 29 years old, championed the rescue of refugee children out of Czechoslovakia, under threat from Hitler’s death camps, to the safety of British foster families.

Battling public apathy, political hostility and bureaucratic obstruction, he succeeded in rescuing 669 children – many of them Jewish – before the war broke out, the borders closed and the mission was abruptly ended. 

Hopkins and Flynn will both play the role of Winton at different stages of his life.

Lion and The King’s Speech outfit See-Saw is producing the film with Aisling Walsh (Maudie) set to direct. The film will be executive-produced by Rose Garnett for BBC Films, and See-Saw’s COO of Film, Simon Gillis. BBC Films developed with See-Saw. [×]

From Deadline:

 

“There’s been buzz that the new Supergirl will appear in Gunn’s Superman Legacy, which is about to go before the cameras in Georgia, but that’s not 100%. What we know now is that she’ll appear in a DC-based project before starring in her solo feature, Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow. Overall, it’s not confirmed where Supergirl will show up at this point. No director has been announced for that film yet. The project was first announced at DC’s studio press day a year ago and it’s based on Tom King’s 2022 comic book series. Bilquis Evely is the illustrator on that comic.

 

”Said Gunn at the time of that annoucement, “In our series we see the difference between Superman who was sent to Earth and raised by loving parents from the time he was an infant, versus Supergirl who was raised on a rock, a chip off Krypton, and watched everyone around her die and be killed in terrible ways for the first 14 years of her life, and then came to Earth when she was a young girl. She’s much more hardcore; she’s not exactly the Supergirl we’re used to seeing.”

All in on this one.

 

“Their most recent was the 2006 critical and box office hit, Inside Man. Their other movies include Mo’ Better Blues, Malcolm X and He Got Game.”

 

That, my friends, is a list of damn good movies.
