BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

Daniel Craig & Halle Berry To Star In Kings

Mustang director Deniz Gamze Erguven has her next film all set up, with English-langue debut Kings already boasting Halle Berry. Now she has also locked in Daniel Craig to co-star.

Kings is set in the tense atmosphere of early 1990s Los Angeles; specifically the powder keg period following the Rodney King trial. Craig will be Ollie, a loner and one of the few white residents of a particular neighborhood in South Central. He meets and falls in love with Berry, whose character looks after a group of kids. Soon after, the riots roar across the city and the two have to work together to track down the kids and get them away from the worst of the violence, which spread across LA across through six days of clashes between residents and police.

According to Deadline, this is actually something of a passion project for Erguven – she pitched the idea back in 2011, but Mustang came together first, and earned an Oscar nomination. Now she'll be getting the movie made at last.

Berry is at work on Kingsman sequel The Golden Circle and has shot thriller Kidnap. Craig's status as James Bond is still up in the air, but he has signed on to Steven Soderbergh's Logan Lucky and TV series Purity.

Naked Gun Reboot On It's Way

If you've seen Naked Gun - or The Naked Gun: From The Files Of Police Squad ! to give its full title - you'll know that it's a comedic masterpiece that springboards off astonishing levels of silliness and random spoofery. Leslie Nielsen's Frank Drebin is a loveable buffoon for the ages, even when he's discussing his dicky prostrate. Do not, however, expect the Ed Helms -starring reboot to adopt exactly the same tack. According to Naked Gun director/co-writer David Zucker, talking up Airplane!'s screening at Nashville's Wild West Comedy Festival, the new version will not attempt to hit the same spoofy sweet spot as the Zuckers and Jim Abrahams' 1988 comedy. "It won’t be like the Naked Gun that I did," Zucker revealed. "It may be good, but it won’t be that kind of movie. They’re going to use the title. They asked me if I wanted to produce. They’re nice people, but they don’t want to do that style of spoof that I do." One departure...
