Sgt. Rock

[donuts]

By the way, Farrell is a great choice for Sgt. Rock.

You want someone that has some rugged features for such a role.

 

[ArmsHeldOut]

Yeah, Farrell's a really good fit for the role. Hope it pans out.

I’m curious to see who else fills out Easy Company. I’m guessing they’re waiting until they’ve got Rock set in stone before they take care of the ensemble.

Farrell brings a very different vibe than Craig, but I'm thrilled at the prospect of him working with Guadagnino

 

[Adrian Chase]

Wasn't also Mikey Madison rumoured?

Wasn't also Mikey Madison rumoured?

I think she was either rumored for a Guadagnino role or just spoke about wanting to work w Guadagnino. Nothing about this project in particular.

 

[ArmsHeldOut]

There are also reports that she's being considered for a role in the MCU, but I can't speak to their validity.

 

[Adrian Chase]

Hopefully the GOAT is in this movie too!

 

[Sawyer]

Considering the timing and the casting not being official, it’s almost certainly not intentional, but I am amused at how much Ryan Sook’s Sgt. Rock on the cover of the new History of the DC Universe looks like a fit Oz Cobb…

Exclusive: Luca Guadagnino's 'Sgt. Rock' DC Movie Scrapped at Warner Bros.

Warner Bros. and DC Films have scrapped development Luca Guadagnino's planned Sgt. Rock movie that was to star Colin Farrell.

Aw, man! This is a total bummer!

 

[OrbOfConfusion]

Can't say I'm too surprised.

DC Studios’ Luca Guadagnino Movie ‘Sgt. Rock’ Not Moving Forward

Colin Farrell was to play the DC soldier in a feature that had Guadagnino on board to direct.

Although it has a World War II setting, the story is said to involve Rock teaming with up with the female French Resistance fighter (is there any other kind?) to find the mystical Spear of Destiny, the spear used to stab Jesus Christ during his crucifixion, which in lore is said to have supernatural properties. They race to obtain it before the Nazis get their hands on it.

This sounds like it could have been DC's Indiana Jones. Fingers crossed this project isn't gone for good.

Who else is very sad

It’s apparently not fully done despite these articles burying that lede. It was a scheduling thing. Could possibly hold off until next summer. Reallllly hope this isn’t gone for good.

100%. Not sure why it’s being referred to as cancelled when production is being put on hold due to weather conditions.

Clayface is next to get cancelled, imo. I think the DC slate is going through a reevaluation with Zaslav unwilling to spend major money on untested IP.

I predict Peter Safran will be given control of the entire WB studio including DC. James Gunn will just focus on his own projects.

Right. DC still loves the script, the cast is great. Hope everyone stays on board.

Re-assessed, huh? As with so many other projects, I'll believe it when cameras are rolling.
