Jamie Foxx Gets Superpowers In Netflix’s ‘Project Power’

Jamie Foxx, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and Dominique Fishback are set to star in Project Power from Paranormal Activity 3 filmmakers Henry Joost and Ariel Schulman. “On the streets of New Orleans, word begins to spread about a mysterious new pill that unlocks superpowers unique to each user. The catch: You don’t know what will happen until you take it. While some develop bulletproof skin, invisibility, and super strength, others exhibit a deadlier reaction. But when the pill escalates crime within the city with too dangerous levels, a local cop (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) teams with a teenage dealer (Dominique Fishback) and a former soldier fueled by a secret vendetta (Jamie Foxx) to fight power with power and take the pill in order to track down and stop the group responsible for creating it.” Mattson Tomlin (The Batman) wrote the script for Project Power, premiering on Netflix on August 14th.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt Exits Sandman Adaption

The film adaption on Neil Gaiman’s graphic novel Sandman has been in development since 2013 when Joseph Gordon Levitt announced he was set to produce and co-write the script along side Gaiman, David S. Goyer and screenwriter Jack Thorne. Levitt was also rumored to be starring as main character, Morpheus. Saturday Levitt announced via Facebook that he was no longer connected to the project under New Line, a division of Warner Bros. In the statement he explained why. “…just don’t see eye to eye on what makes Sandman special, and what a film adaption could/should be. So unfortunately I decided to remove myself from the project. I wish nothing but the best for the team moving forward.” Neil Gaiman, the graphic novel’s creator, responded to Gordon-Levitt’s exist over Twitter today. “For the record, my respect for [Joseph Gordon Levitt], is undiminished.” Gaiman wrote.”Getting to know him was the best bit of the last round. He’s special.” In response Gordon-Levitt thanked

An Update From Joseph Gordon-Levitt On The ‘Sandman’ Movie

Joseph Gordon-Levitt gave an update on the ‘Sandman’ movie, which he will be producing, directing and starring in, at Spike’s Guy Choice Awards this weekend. “Big spectacular action movies are generally about crime fighters fighting crime and blowing shit up. This has nothing to do with that,” He continues “And it was actually one of the things that Neil Gaiman said to me, he said “Don’t have any punching.” Because he never does. If you read the comics, Morpheus doesn’t punch anybody. That’s not what he does. It’s going to be like a grand spectacular action film, but that relies on none of those same old ordinary cliches. So, that’s why it’s taking a lot of time to write, but it’s going to be really good.” Levitt, Gaiman and David S. Goyer, along with Jack Thorne, who will be serving as screenwriter for ‘Sandman’, are working hard to create a movie that will honor Neil Gaiman’s original vision for the
