JonahHex


There's been a lot of noise from DC Comics and their parent company Warner Brothers ever since Marvel became their own studio and hit a box office home run with Iron Man. Let's separate rumor from reality and break down what's actually happening at the studio...

Definitely Happening

Green Lantern - Starts shooting in 2010 from director Martin Campbell (Casino Royale) with Ryan Reynolds as the cosmic ring-bearer Hal Jordan.

Jonah Hex - Josh Brolin stars as the title character in this horror/western from director Jimmy Heyward, set for wide release June 2010.

Lobo - This is slated to be Guy Ritchie's next film, hot off of Sherlock Holmes. The movie will be a PG-13 action-comedy, which has some of the more bloodthirsty Lobo purists in a tizzy.

Batman - While no formal announcement has been made about a new Batman sequel (allowing internet rumor mongering and fan speculation to run wild), this movie will happen, just as sure as there's a setting sun.

The first day of Comic Con is upon us, and what a busy day it is. The Disney 3D panel seemed to be a success, with the biggest news perhaps being that Tron 2 finally has a legitimate title: Tron Legacy. You can see the official logo for the film above. Here's the brand new synopsis for the highly-anticipated (at least for you 80s kids) sequel:

"TRON is a 3D high-tech adventure set in a digital world that's unlike anything ever captured on the big screen. Sam Flynn (GARRETT HEDLUND), the tech-savvy 27-year-old son of Kevin Flynn (JEFF BRIDGES), looks into his father's disappearance and finds himself pulled into the same world of fierce programs and gladiatorial games where his father has been living for 25 years. Along with Kevin's loyal confidant (OLIVIA WILDE), father and son embark on a life-and-death journey across a visually-stunning cyber universe that has become far more advanced and exceedingly dangerous."

The first spy pics of Josh Brolin as Jonah Hex have arrived online via Lainey Gossip, and while we're sure some special CGI effects will be added later to make Brolin look even meaner and nastier, these images pretty much prove that he's the right man for the job. Adapted from the popular comic series (with supernatural elements), Jonah Hex is a Western comic book anti-hero who's reminiscent of Clint Eastwood in films like Man with No Name. He's a tough-as-nails bounty hunter who's known for the giant scar on his face (which is why Brolin looks like he's sporting some serious acne issues).

Jonah Hex -- which follows Hex as he tries to track down a voodoo practitioner hell-bent on releasing an army of the undead -- also stars Megan Fox, John Malkovich, Will Arnett and Michael Shannon. It's due in theaters on August 6, 2010. Check out images of Megan Fox in full costume over on Cinematical, and a larger version of the image above down in the gallery below.
