Matt Booty says modern-day ‘Perfect Dark’ reboot needs to be done “very carefully”

Jessica Kiang In a gated compound camouflaged by the thick, dripping vegetation of inland Indonesia, all is quiet. A curtain may stir. The hushed commentary on a TV chess match may mutter indistinctly. An insect or two may chirrup. But mostly, this dark-cornered, sinister place, which is being minded by callow young caretaker Rakib (Kevin Ardilova), feels eerily still and expectant, like a spiderweb waiting for the return of its spider. Makbul Mubarak’s “Autobiography” — the Indonesian filmmaker’s impressive debut — gives a “Godfather”-style, power-corrupting-the-naive story the Conradian overtones of “Apocalypse Now.” But with its powerful sense of mood, it emerges from Coppola’s shadow by summoning evocative, specific shadows of its own, out of Indonesia’s troubled, genocidal, terrifying past.

Naman Ramachandran Top Bollywood stars Hrithik Roshan and Saif Ali Khan are reuniting after 20 years for “Vikram Vedha.” The film, directed by writer-directors Pushkar and Gayatri, tells the story of a tough police officer Vikram (Khan) who sets out to track down and kill an equally tough gangster Vedha (Roshan). What unfolds is a cat-and-mouse chase, where Vedha, a master storyteller, helps Vikram peel back layers through a series of stories, leading to moral ambiguities. “It has been 20 years since I worked with Saif on a film. Coming together with him for ‘Vikram Vedha’ was the best thing that could happen to me as an actor,” Roshan told Variety. “He is a co-star who pushes me to deliver my best onscreen. His acting is so real and powerful that it uplifts the whole scene. If given an opportunity, I’d like to collaborate with him again.”

Sadly, recent news might mean that Sam may no longer be eligible for the role as the iconic tuxedo-clad spy. The star has been in the running for months, even auditioning for the role. At the end of August, however, it was reported that Sam would be starring in the film adaptation of video game Days Gone. His potential inclusion in the new film may mean that his chances at being 007 are over. This is due to the fact that the production and filming of Days Gone may cause scheduling conflicts by the time the next Bond flick is in production. However, bookies' odds still stand firm in the belief that Sam has a decent chance at being the next Bond.Ladbrokes Nicola McGeady said: "Sam Heughan has been chalked up at 20/1 to play James Bond.“Rumours suggest he is too old for the role. However, we won’t be ruling him out of the race just yet."What's more, Heughan previously auditioned for the role back in 2005.
