India's 'Forrest Gump' Remake 'Laal Singh Chaddha' Official Trailer

Laal Singh Chaddha Trailer

"Some people don't believe, but miracles do happen." Paramount has revealed the official US trailer for an Indian film titled Laal Singh Chaddha, which is really an official remake of Forrest Gump set in India instead. Apparently this has been in the works for along time - they spent ten years adapting the script, then another ten years purchasing the remake rights, finally securing them in 2018. Laal Singh Chaddha has been filmed in more than 100 Indian locations. The plot is similar - events in India's history unfold through the perspective of Laal Singh Chaddha, a dim-witted man, as played by famous actor / filmmaker Aamir Khan. The film's cast also includes Kareena Kapoor, Naga Chaitanya, Mona Singh, Manav Vij, and Aaryaa Sharma. This actually looks amazing?! I'm serious! Bollywood is really rocking right now and this is a seemingly impressive that looks as endearing as the original. I want to see this. It might be pretty good.

Here's the official trailer (+ poster) for Advait Chandan's Laal Singh Chaddha, direct from YouTube:

An official remake of the 1994 American movie Forrest Gump. Events in India's history unfold through the perspective of Laal Singh Chaddha, a dim-witted man who has an understanding of emotions.

The screenplay is written by Atul Kulkarni, based on the original movie adapted by Eric Roth, from the novel by Winston Groom. It's produced by Aamir Khan, Kiran Rao, and Pawandeep Singh. Paramount will debut Laal Singh Chaddha in select US theaters starting on August 11th, 2022 later this summer. Who's interested? How does it look?

Blumhouse is Making a ‘Fantasy Island’ Movie

The frightmasters at Blumhouse have come up with their most terrifying idea yet! They’re developing…*checks notes*…a  Fantasy Island movie! Yes, that’s right – a film based on the 1970s Aaron Spelling series about an island where all your dreams can come true…for a price.  Jeff Wadlow , who directed Blumhouse’s  Truth or Dare , will helm the TV-to-film adaptation. Even if you’ve never seen a single episode of  Fantasy Island , I’m betting you’re familiar with it. It was a brightly-lit ’70s-’80s TV show that featured Ricardo Montalbán as a mysterious man in a white suit, and Hervé Villechaize as his sidekick who was famous for yelling, “The plane! The plane!” Here are the rather whimsical opening credits. Fantasy Island According to Deadline , the folks at Blumhouse took one look at this and said, “We’re making that a movie.”  Truth or Dare director Jeff Wadlow will be behind the camera, and he’ll also co-write the film with his  Truth or Dare writers  Chris Roach and Jillian

The 14 Most Dangerous Mission: Impossible Stunts, Ranked Worst To Best

Image
"Mission: Impossible" premiered on CBS in 1966 as an upside down "Topkapi" riff that left the conniving to the good guys. For creator Bruce Geller, expertise was the point. Characters and plots were left blank and blurry, forcing viewers to join the Impossible Missions Force or be left in the high-tech dust. Fun only got in the way; Geller famously scolded star Peter Graves for smiling at the end of an episode. In 1996, director Brian De Palma reinvented the series as a star vehicle for Tom Cruise, and it's nothing but fun. The second film even includes a joke about how its star can't stop smiling. The fuse burns brighter than ever and expertise remains the native tongue, but "Mission: Impossible" has carved a new legacy in theaters -- mainly, its reputation for showing off knuckle-whitening, insurance-defying stunts, often performed by Cruise himself. Factoring in franchise importance and danger inherent, the following 14 examples are the best
