Tom Cruise talks Valkyrie:
Tom Cruise briefly talked about his role in Bryan Singer's upcoming war drama Valkyrie. Cruise plays a German colonel famous for a failed attempt to kill Adolf Hitler. He revealed his first reaction when Singer dropped the script on his desk;
"Intuitively I saw a similarity in the profile of this man with myself. Naturally that's something that makes an actor curious.
I want to think positive and concentrate on the film. I carry a great responsibility to the Germans, for whom a man like Colonel Claus Graf Schenk von Stauffenberg means so much. And I feel this responsibility to the man himself. The more I learn about him, the greater my respect and my admiration of him."
I'm really curious how this flick will turn out. I'll keep you guys posted on this one.

Rob Cohen talks The Mummy 3!:
Director Rob Cohen created a blog where he can post his experiences on making The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor! Here are some interesting clips;
"I am taking the story to a new place: China. Jet Li plays a despotic Emperor in 50 B.C. whose evil is punished by a terrible curse laid on him by wizardress Michelle Yeoh: he and his army are turned into to terra cotta for all time; that is, unless he is re-awakened which, of course, is where the O’Connell’s come back into it.
The family is reunited and high adventure ensues: crash landings, treks thru the Himalayas, Yeti, avalanches (bigger than the one I did in “XXX”), Shangri-la, three-headed dragons, pools of eternal life, epic battles, a shape-shifting Jet Li….I could go on but I don’t want to give it all away."
The new sequel stars Brendan Fraser, Maria Bello, Jet Li, John Hannah, Michelle Yeoh and Anthony Wong. To be honest, I wasn't looking forward to see another mummy flick, but reading the above, Cohen could deliver a fun adventure flick, right? Click here to check out the rest of the blog.
