Lilja K Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 @oxford25 thanks for uncovering the unknown project 🌺 @Jade Bahr you are familiar with The End of Eternity by Isaac Asimov? If not, and if you're still interested in love stories and time travel, then I recommend this book 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jade Bahr Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Guys I found the project I was talking about!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's called BLOOD ON SNOW by Jo Nesbo. The book, penned under Nesbo’s pseudonym Tom Johansson, centers on a hit man who falls in love with his boss’s wife after being assigned to assassinate her. https://variety.com/2013/film/news/leonardo-dicaprio-books-jo-nesbos-blood-in-the-snow-1200748353/ Guess I have to read it finally lol Edit: I just bought it ☺️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jade Bahr Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 ^In 2017 it came back to life with Tobey eyeing it for his directorial debut. But since then nothing. https://www.indiewire.com/2017/04/tobey-maguire-directorial-debut-blood-on-snow-1201800833/ Still think it sounds interesting.

YouNoMe Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Thanks, everyone your input about Leonardo's possible interest. Books add depth, but I still hate reading. Anyway, giving my natural feelings toward reading I couldn't genuinely participate in @Lilja K's challenge, could I? Although intriguing. Switching gears, whilst I'm not thrilled about how far down he's entered this category, I am pleased he's acknowledged in the category at all. And, at least he's trickled through video, I guess. 😌.

Yes, pics please. I really like Anitta. Some people might not like her (and she's criticized a lot, even in Brazil) her songs or how she shakes her ass, but none other Brazilian singer got soo big overseas, so I praise her for her sucess, plus she's a pretty smart woman if you ask me. And regarding Leo, she knows him from other events, last year she posted on twitter that she had a big conversation with him at one of the MET Gala after parties about Brazil's political situation and Amazon. She also asked Leo help to encourage young people to vote in last years presindencial election, and he tweeted about it in Portuguese (obviously with some help, hehe).

Jade Bahr Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Don't know if anybody had doubts but here's apples confirmation KOTFM comes out THIS year. Also lol to her song choice 😄 #titanic mood everywhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouNoMe Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 MY source told me November, as well; although November isn't directly mentioned in your post. When I further harassed my source for details of the KOTFM release, November is all I got, and then, before Thanksgiving 🦃, American Thanksgiving that is. It is said that Scorsese likes holiday releases because they ensure larger crowds and it appears each season promotes certain genres (e.g., dramas--fall/winter; spring/summer--comedies and action). Waiting for the fall may help steer younger generations to see more dramatic films because the parents may be along? Summer kinda marks independence here in the States, even if it's only from June to September. Anyway, if this season thing is accurate and the before Thanksgiving declaration stands, maybe the release will be Friday, November 10th? 🤞 1 hour ago, Jade Bahr said: Don't know if somebody had doubts but here's apples confirmation KOTFM comes out THIS year.

Unfortunately, I'm out of the loop ➰😞. I only heard of Anitta, here, on this thread 🧵. But I'm always certain that whomever Leonardo decorates himself with is more or less decent (even though I have doubts about Richie for more unobvious reasons) and humanely conscious. So, let's hope they are finally seen together, working together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jade Bahr Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 ^do you have some tea about Richie @YouNoMe 🫖 spill it girl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouNoMe Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 All I can say about Richie @Jade Bahr is he's a bit hypocritical in his humanitarian approaches. He has been known to make differences in women (i.e., in appearance) and certain ethnicities (i.e., in skin tone). One may say, "oh, what about Naomi Campbell?", and that same one should remind themselves of Naomi's status. It's nothing like planning a night of fun, getting dressed up and heading out only to be heckled because you're darker than preferred. But, you know, it's nothing like dealing with someone that lie 🤥 like they're telling the truth. But I'm NOT one to gossip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akatosh Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 I've read Blood on Snow. It's an exciting thriller with a twist It would have been cool to see Leo portray Olav. But I guess the project is dead... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe not entirely dead since we all know how long it takes to realize a project in Hollywood -and how many people comes and goes while this process- but the option to see Leo in it is for sure dead. Sadly. But I'm excited to read the book 😃 So thx @Lilja K to making me read again with starting the whole topic Interesting discussion and thx all for the recommended books 📚 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akatosh Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Always great to read news about new projects: Warner Bros Takes Stephen King Bestseller ‘Billy Summers’, Bad Robot & Appian Way To Produce While in development, the feature project will be produced by J.J. Abrams’ Bad Robot and Leonardo DiCaprio’s Appian Way. If this comes out great, it could be a project for Abrams to direct with DiCaprio playing the title character. Ed Zwick and Marshall Herskovitz are writing the screenplay. This was originally packaged as a ten-episode limited series, shopped around to cable networks and streamers, as we first told you last February, but the decision was made that Billy Summers would work better as a feature. Billy Summers is a hitman who is looking to retire and takes one last highly lucrative job to feather his nest. The job requires him to embed himself in a quiet town, where he pretends to be an aspiring writer (he actually pours himself into the prose). He sets up in an office with a direct view of where hitman Joel Allen will be delivered to face trial for shooting two men during a poker game. Allen also has committed enough murders for some high-level mobsters to be scared the gunman will incriminate his former employers to lessen his sentence. Summers, a meticulous craftsman, becomes more and more cynical about the mobsters who’ve hired him, and his skepticism is well warranted as things go awry following the job’s completion. This will be Bad Robot’s latest adaptation with King, after series Lisey’s Story, Castle Rock and 11.22.63. https://deadline.com/2023/02/stephen-king-billy-summers-warner-bros-bad-robot-leonardo-dicaprio-1235249142/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
