The pose. The music. And, of course, that exchange of pleasantries. These are just some of the recognizable staples of Charlie’s Angels. And it is all there in Sony Pictures’ new telling of the titular film directed by Elizabeth Banks (Pitch Perfect 2).
And with these new tellings comes a brand new cast and vision. Kristen Stewart, Naomi Scott, and Ella Balinska are the new Angels, with Banks playing the role of Bosley. But those aren’t the only changes that we are seeing. Check out the trailer below.
When one studio film moves its date, you can be sure that it won’t be vacant for very long. In fact, right after Wonder Woman 1984moved from its November 1, 2019 date to June 20, 2020, two other films took its place.
Reports say the new Charlie’s Angels reboot and the next Terminator film from Paramount have both moved into the November 1, 2019 slot. More on the report, below.
Kristen Stewart, Naomi Scott, and Ella Balinska are the newest members of the new Charlie’s Angels. The film, which will be directed by Elizabeth Banks, will now focus on a new group of Charlie’s Angels for a new generation. More on the story here below.
The Hollywood Reporter says the film’s “new story takes the detective agency premise of the original television series and turn-of-the new century movies and takes it global, with the Townsend Agency now a worldwide security and intelligence service that has teams around the planet. The movie will focus on one of those teams and the next generation of Angels.”
Having already dipped her feet in the directing waters for the first time with the very successful Pitch Perfect 2, Elizabeth Banks looks like she is getting ready for her second directorial effort by entering talks to helm a reboot of Charlie’s Angels.
As you may have noticed, there’s been a bit of television shuffling lately. It’s that purely chaotic time of year when networks decide what shows they keep and what shows they kill, as well as what new shows they’ll order seasons of.
Last night news broke that CBS was going to keep pressing on with their seemingly doomed Two and a Half Men by replacing Charlie Sheen with Ashton Kutcher. Then, late last night, it was reported that NBC was not going to take the chance everyone thought they would on the much talked about comic book adaptation, Wonder Woman.
This has continued today with a mess of announcements and updates making their way across the ‘net. Some will not matter much to anyone while others will either excite or devastate loyal fans of these various titles facing the firing squad.
