New Cast Members Added to Fargo’s Third Season

With season 3 of FX’s Fargo raring to begin production next month in Calgary, some new cast members have been added to the show. David Thewlis, Michael Stuhlbarg, Jim Gaffigan, Scoot McNairy, Karan Soni, Fred Melamed, and Thomas Mann all join Mary, Ewan McGregor and Carrie Coon.

According to Variety, McGregor will play brothers Emmit and Ray Stussy. Emmit, described as the Parking Lot King of Minnesota, sees himself as an American success story, whereas Ray is more of a cautionary tale. Their sibling rivalry leads to a twisted path that begins with petty theft, but soon leads to murder, mobsters, and cut-throat competitive bridge. Coon will portray Gloria Burgle, the steady chief of the local police department. A newly divorced mother, Gloria is trying to understand the new world around her. Winstead will play Ray’s girlfriend, Nikki Swango, a crafty and alluring recent parolee with a passion for competitive bridge.

A premiere date hasn’t been set, but the show will air some time next year and is rumored to tie into the events after season 1.

Mary Being Considered for Deadpool 2!

Here we go with the comic book casting rumor mill once again! Collider is reporting that Mary is on a list of actresses being considered to play the part of Domino in Deadpool 2.

Sources close to the production exclusively tell Collider that testing has begun for the character of Domino, and the actresses under consideration include Lizzy Caplan (Masters of Sex), Mary Elizabeth Winstead (10 Cloverfield Lane), Sienna Miller (American Sniper), Sofia Boutella (Star Trek Beyond), Stephanie Sigman (Spectre), and Sylvia Hoeks (Overspel). There could be other actresses included in the mix, but sources tell the site that at least these six performers have tested or are going to test for the role.

For those that don’t know, Domino is a mercenary and a mutant, and her powers include the ability to initiate random telekinetic acts that turn probability in her favor. Additionally, she has a close connection to the mutant Cable, as her comics history found her becoming a partner, confidante, and lover of the mutant and frequent frenemy of Deadpool.

Filming for Deadpool 2 will begin early next year. If anything changes, I’ll definitely post the news!

Sky High Sequel Rumored

A sequel to the 2005 film Sky High is reportedly in the works. According to The Hollywood News, the reporter spoke to “Trolls” directors Walt Dohrn and Mike Mitchell and discussed future projects, bringing up the possibility of a second “Sky High” film.

While the two are working on a “Shrek 5”, they had this to say about Sky High 2:

“We’re working on a sequel to Sky High. We’ll see how that goes.”

If you haven’t seen the film, it follows the story of Will Stronghold (Michael Angarano). A freshmen student at Sky High, a school that teaches teens who have superpowers. Will has yet to develop any powers despite being the son of two very famous superheroes, The Commander and Jetstream. So, when he enters Sky High, Will is designated as a ‘Hero Support’ sidekick and uncovers a villainous conspiracy at the school.

Mary, of course, played the villain of Gwen Grayson/Royal Pain and starred alongside Kelly Preston, Danielle Panabaker, Kurt Russell, Lynda Carter and Bruce Campbell.
