To those who could give some fucks:



J.J. Abrams to Direct STAR WARS: EPISODE VII


J.J. Abrams Set to Direct Next 'Star Wars' Film (Exclusive)

Interesting.

[Michaelvk]

That looks very encouraging..

[Hawkmumbler]

Good spot, not a bad choice either. Let's hope he can woprk the same magic on SW that he did on ST.

[radiator]

Hope he gives Karl Urban a role - he'd make a great Han Solo type, or villain.

Yep, he got the look;

[von Boom]

The character the immediately springs to mind is Corran Horn form I, Jedi. I don't know why, but I think Karl could do that sort of character justice.

I wanna see Bryan Cranston in it. Mind you, I wanna see Bryan Cranston in EVERYTHING. If the Dredd TV show happens, and it's after Breaking Bad finishes - I think we've got our small screen Dredd right there!

Cranston is more of a Chief Judge.

[radiator]

Yeah, Cranston's got a great Dredd voice, but he's knocking on a bit.

[Link Prime]

Aren't we all.

[ChickenStu]

Yeah, Cranston's got a great Dredd voice, but he's knocking on a bit.

From what I gather he's knocking on a bit in the comic too. In the Dredd movie I get the feeling he's supposed to be fairly young-ish. He doesn't seem to have yet quite aquired the fearsome reputation he has in the comic book. His colleagues know he's the shit, but word doesn't quite seem to have got the rest of Mega City One yet.

Maybe if the proposed TV show focuses more toward the end of his career - someone like Cranston would be appropriate...

[Richmond Clements]

What proposed TV show??

[ChickenStu]

What proposed TV show??

Didn't I read somewhere that Alex Garland had a TV show in mind?

[vzzbux]

What proposed TV show??

Interweb rumour is wonderful.

Wasn't there going to be an animated series based on one sector house with Dredd popping in every now and again. It is going to be called 'The Pitts'. Karl Urban is going to voice all the male characters while Sandra Dickinson will voice Anderson.

He said that he thought it was a great idea. I don't think he was suggesting that he would be producing it. I think he was just talking form the perspective of a viewer.
