Colin Farrell And Eric Bana In Talks For By Virtue Fall

Back in the first half of the aughts, Colin Farrell became kind of a joke. He was choosing to be in some of the worst movies being made and was making an ass of himself publicly. Then, in 2008, Farrell decided to clean up his act and star in the first feature from playwright Martin McDonagh, In Bruges. His performance was a revelation and it made it okay to be a Colin Farrell fan again. With any luck, By Virtue Fall will keep that going.

Deadline is reporting that Farrell and Eric Banaare currently in negotiations to star in the film, which will be directed by Up In The Air co-writer Sheldon Turner. While details about the project are slim, Farrell and Bana would play two friends and co-workers who become enemies after one betrays the other. While both of the actors are interested in the film, their representatives have been unhappy with the salaries that have been offered so far.

It would be fantastic if this deal worked out. Farrell and Bana are two of Hollywood’sbest imports working at the moment and seeing them square off in a heavy drama sounds like cinephile heaven. Neither actor has been scrounging for work as of late and this sounds like a project that has dual Best Actor nominations written all over it. Fellas, be open to a pay cut.

Chopper HQ Stills

Hello Everyone!

Sorry for the lack of updates around here. What can I tell you? Offline life has kept me BUSY. But don’t worry I haven’t forgotten about this site at all. I am in the process of getting a lot of Eric’s older films to cap them for this site. So there will be tons of Eric goodies to come.

Anyways, this is a quick update. I came across three stills from Eric’s breakout role in Chopper. It’s hard to believe that this is the same gorgeous man we have all come to love.

Eric To Play Teen Assassin’s Dad

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) – Eric Bana is going back to action movie territory.

The Australian actor is in negotiations to star opposite Saoirse Ronan (The Lovely Bones) in Hanna, Focus Features’ tale of a teenage assassin being directed by Joe Wright (Atonement).

Bana will play Ronan’s father in the story of a 14-year-old Eastern European girl saved from a CIA breeding camp and raised by her dad to be a cold-blooded killing machine. After finding peace with a French family, the girl is dragged back to her father’s world, and she must fight her way to a free life.

Bana last appeared in Judd Apatow’s comedy-drama Funny People and the romance The Time Traveler’s Wife. However, the Aussie made his American movie mark in such films as The Hulk and sword-and-sandal epic Troy and gained his action spy movie cred with Black Hawk Down and Munich.
