With so many movies still coming this summer, there is a glut of new footage released to continually whet your appetite for what is coming soon.
To start, we have a new clip from the TOTAL RECALL remake that revolves around Quaid (Colin Farrell) being activated.
While I am not a huge Len Wiseman fan, this movie has piqued my interest quite a bit. I am excited most of all to see the Kate Beckinsale/Jessica Biel catfight. Hot and damn, I say.
TOTAL RECALL opens on August 3rd.
Next up we have a clip from THE BOURNE LEGACY starring Jeremy Renner and Rachel Weisz. Matt Damon recently went on the record saying that he would be open to appearing in a future BOURNE sequel, unless THE BOURNE LEGACY does well at the box office. While I think he could still be tempted even if this movie opens big, I am rooting for it to do just well enough that Damon will come back to either fight or join forces with Renner.
I might be crazy, but that looks like Renner doing his own stunts. If so, I am much more excited for THE BOURNE LEGACY, which opens in theaters on August 10th.
Lastly, we have the opening sequence from the latest offering from the STEP UP franchise, STEP UP: REVOLUTION. Now, I bet many of you are thinking I must be doing bath salts or something to include STEP UP in the same article with TOTAL RECALL and THE BOURNE LEGACY. Well, I am including it because directing a STEP UP movie seems to do just that for the director’s career. Anne Fletcher, who helmed the first film, will be directing ENCHANTED 2 for Disney, and Jon Chu sort of directed G.I. JOE: RETALIATION. So, we can consider Scott Speer’s job on this fourth movie to possibly be an audition for a bigger gig.
STEP UP: REVOLUTION opens in theaters July 27th.
