JackFetch Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 20th Century Fox has signed Mark Wahlberg to star in Max Payne, a live-action adaptation of the bestselling Rockstar video game that will begin shooting early next year. John Moore will direct. Variety says Wahlberg is negotiating to play the titular cop who is haunted by the tragic loss of his family and has little regard for rules as he investigates a series of mysterious murders. He finds himself up against an adversary bent on destroying Max and the streets he protects. The script was written by Beau Thorne. Julie Yorn is producing through Firm Films, along with Scott Faye. http://www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=39210 I guess they really are running out of ideas in Hollywood.

annericelover Posted August 17, 2008 Report Share Posted August 17, 2008 This actually looks good. Hopefully they'll be able to start a trend where video game based material can be successful on the big screen. http://www.imdb.com/video/imdb/vi1557922073/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackFetch Posted September 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2008 The film is getting an R rating and the director is pissed. He said he held back on violence and cussing to get a PG-13. Moore says that the MPAA hobbled his movie, financially, with an R because it's dark and "feels R," theorizing that the ratings body "gave The Dark Knight a PG-13 rating and basically sucked Warner Bros. cock." The Dark Knight, Moore thinks, was "pretty gnarly for PG-13" and that his own film was going to get the same treatment. Not so, despite the film being "not yet rated" officially. The Max Payne director says that Wahlberg intentionally avoided some salty language and that Moore "didn’t go cutting people’s heads off and ripping their eyeballs out just for the fun of it" to help nab the PG-13, something he's still lobbying for. Perhaps a reversal of MPAA and film studio roles could help, John? MPAA volunteers need blowjobs too. http://kotaku.com/5046154/max-payne-direct...-batman-blowjob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
