NEWS: CHUCK NORRIS, STALLONE, WILLIS, BOLL…

THE TULSA KING

Here’s a look at Sylvester Stallone in his upcoming mob series The Tulsa King.  The series stars Stallone as a mobster driven out of town, who sets up a new operation in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

The genre and Stallone have apparently been waiting to get together for a long time now.  The show also now has a release date, November 13.

CHUCK NORRIS

You don’t see much of Chuck Norris these days. Even interviews are rare. But here’s a new one that has emerged via some obscure Russian guy’s tiny YouTube channel.  Norris covers a lot in the one hour interview.

Norris, a great story-teller (a fucking amazing story-teller, actually), reads out stories from his book about the fights he had as a young man.  Among other things.  It’s a good show to listen to, the man is 82 and doesn’t even need reading glasses!

WHITE ELEPHANT

Old Bruce is winding it down now and taking it easy on account of his illness. But not before a few more movies come down the pipe, featuring Walter_B slaughtering people with an MP-40. Above is the trailer for White Elephant.

Synopsis: When an assassination attempt goes wrong, an ex-marine-turned-mob enforcer is forced to set things right or face the wrath of his ruthless mob boss.

Directed by Jesse V. Johnson, it is released June 3rd.

NESS

It seems that Uwe Boll is well out of the retirement business and is going to make another movie.  Ness will tell the tale of crime fighter Eliot Ness who took down Al Capone.  But it is set years after the Capone days, with Ness chasing a serial killer.

Boll will direct and produce according to THR.

THE OLD MAN

Okay so, Bruce Willis trailers look suspect these days, but the above looks better with Jeff Bridges. The Old Man is an up.

Synopsis: Dan Chase absconded from the CIA and lives off the grid. When an assassin arrives and tries to take Chase out, the old operative learns that to ensure his future he now must reconcile his past. The FBI’s Harold Harper is called on to hunt him down because of his complicated past with the rogue fugitive. When Chase proves to be more difficult to apprehend than the authorities expected, a highly trained special ops contractor is sent to pursue him as well. While on the run, Chase rents a room from Zoe McDonald, who draws on reserves she never knew she had to survive the day when she learns the truth about her new tenant.

The series is released via FX late June.
