THANKS IN ADVANCE
Monday, April 16, 2018 at 10:29PM Ah... April. It's that time of year when we inevitably make fools of ourselves looooong in advance by predicting the Oscar nominations nearly a full year ahead of time. The 91st Oscars won't be held for another 314 days (February 24th, 2019 if you must know) but it's time we started building the Oscar charts.
Friday, December 30, 2016 at 8:00AM Chris here. It's that time of the Oscar season where we are starting to hear about the major contenders next projects, and here's one that reunites two major forces behind the frontrunner. Ryan Gosling has already danced among the stars for director Damien Chazelle, and now he'll be launched back into them as Neil Armstrong for First Man.
From James Hansen's biography of the same name, the film will be adapted by Spotlight's Oscar winning cowriter Josh Singer and follow the story of the historic moon landing. The project had originally been developed by Clint Eastwood, but Chazelle is an incredibly more interesting and less expected choice for the project. This would be quite the about face from the jazz-focused La La Land and Whiplash, so we'll be curious to see the results whether or not he becomes the youngest ever Oscar-winning director this year.
Will this be one small step for Chazelle or a giant leap for Gosling?
