Chris Pratt Picture

Chris Pratt has signed on to star in Amazon MGM Studios' upcoming sci-fi thriller "Mercy". The film will be directed by Timur Bekmambetov from a script by Marco van Belle ("Arthur & Merlin"). Bekmambetov previously worked with Pratt on the 2008 movie "Wanted", which was based on Mark Millar's comic book

The film is set in the near future when capital crime has increased, and it follows a detective (Pratt) who is accused of a violent crime and forced to prove his innocence.

The film is produced by Charles Roven, who just received his second Best Picture Oscar nomination for "Oppenheimer", under his Atlas Entertainment. Bekmambetov is also on board to produce through his production company BEL.

Here's what Amazon MGM Studios head Jennifer Salke had to say about the project: "From the moment Chuck Roven brought us Mercy and we read Marco van Belle’s script, we knew the film was meant for the big screen. As our relationship with The Terminal List and The Tomorrow War’s Chris Pratt continues to extend across film, we can’t wait to watch him bring this action-packed story to life, guided by Chuck and the vision of director Timur Bekmambetov. We could not imagine a better star and filmmaking team to execute on and deliver what is sure to be a gripping thrill ride and look forward to audiences being able to experience it in theaters.".

Morgan Freeman
John Huston
As previously reported, "The Bible" producers Mark Burnett and Roma Downey are working on a "Ben-Hur" remake for MGM and Paramount which will be directed by Timur Bekmambetov ("Wanted"). The new version is said to be more faithful to Lew Wallace's novel than the 1959 classic, and more focused on the Biblical aspects of the story. Now, we have the first casting reports for this project. Morgan Freeman ("The Dark Knight") has signed on to star as Ildarin, the man who teaches the slave Ben-Hur to become a champion-caliber chariot racer. Also, John Huston ("Boardwalk Empire") is set to star as the titular Judah Ben-Hur. Production will begin in Europe early next year and the film is scheduled for release on February 26, 2016.

ben-hur-remake-news
MGM and Paramount Pictures are working on a "Ben-Hur" remake and the studios have announced today the official release date for the project: February 26, 2016. The announcement came via an official press release which you can read after the jump, and in that press release, the studios also unveiled the creative powers that will be hard at work to bring this project to fruition. The film will be produced by Mark Burnett and Roma Downey, the same team behind the popular TV miniseries "The Bible" and its big screen spin-off "Son of God", and it will be directed by Timur Bekmambetov ("Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter", "Wanted"). Bekmambetov seems like an odd choice for the project, but he is a very strong visual director, so at least I can hope that the remake will look amazing.

Lew Wallace's novel "Ben-Hur: A Tale Of The Christ" is the story of "a falsely accused nobleman who survives years of slavery to take vengeance on his best friend who betrayed him. Both must come to choose between retribution or forgiveness." The story follows the life of Judah Ben Hur in parallel to that of Jesus Christ, so the choice of producers confirms initial reports that the remake will be a more faith-driven film than the original 1959 adaptation. For those unfamiliar with the 1959 film, it was directed by William Wyler, it starred Charlton Heston and won 11 Academy Awards, a record that went unchallanged until it was matched by "Titanic" in 1998 and "Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" in 2004.
