Two Stallone Film Rumors
Two really cool film project rumors are floating around today and both involve Sly.
The first film rumor about Sly is that James Cameron has a part for him in Cameron‘s next movie which is starting to gear up. Sly‘s part may just be a cameo but according to what’s being said Brian Cox and Arnold Schwarzenegger will also have roles and the film will be shot in 3D. For full details click HERE or HERE.
The second is a stop motion project [think Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas] called AUTOMATONS. The story involves two killer robots designed by the US during WWII to kill Hitler. When it appears that Hitler has taken his own life the robots are left on the ocean floor… only the robots didn’t “die” and have for the last sixty years been looking for Hitler on the bottom of the ocean.
Wait! It gets crazier because Hitler, Tojo and Mussolini have been in a Top Secret Cryo-Chamber… and when they are thawed out decide that they were really wrong with “that whole rule the world thing, so Adolphdecides to put on the greatest play version of YOU’RE A GOOD MAN CHARLIE BROWN…”
So how does Sly fit into all of this you ask? It seems that he will voice Mussolini. Jack Black and John C Reilly will voice the killer bots, John Cleese provides Hitler‘s voice and there are voice roles for Billy Bob Thorton, William H. Macy and Holly Hunter as well. According to Harry at AICN [and who has seen some of the film work], most of the voice work is done!
This is one film too crazy NOT to be true. For full details click HERE.
