Also, if iMDB is to be believed, this movie will be shot by Emmanuel Lubezki, the 3-time Academy Award WINNING cinematographer of the groundbreaking epic masterpiece...

THE CAT IN THE HAT

And also Gravity, Birdman, The Revanent, The Tree of Life, Y Tu Mama Tambien, Sleepy Hollow, and Children of Men.

@SlowKnife - It's either him or Lawrence Sher, Todd Phillips' go-to DP. It's been going back and forth over the past couple days (at one point both were listed at the same time). And like I said, I'm getting this from iMDB, which isn't the best place to go to if you're looking for official confirmation. They had Michael Giacchino listed as the composer for that movie, and everybody believed it until Giacchino posted on Twitter that he wasn't doing it.

I didn't like either movie so far, but it's always nice to see her in a movie.

Man ... where has she been? She could be a great addition to a superehero film as Lady Shiva or Cheshire.

@Forthas - I believe she was charged with being an escort. I'd stay out of the spotlight for awhile too...

@Himura - I had read that before, but she was exonerated from what I remember.
