Johnny Depp, Bill Nighy and Hiroyuki Sanada are the stars of new drama Minamata. The story of war photographer W. Eugene Smith (Depp) and his journey back to Japan to document the devastating effect of mercury poisoning on the citizens of Minamata, Kumamoto, Japan.

Directed by Andrew Levitas; additional key cast includes Tadanobu Asano, Katherine Jenkins and Jun Kunimura.

As a big Jonny Depp fan, I cannot wait to see this. Even more so since this is one of his more down to earth roles. I’m also in for the kindness and to, at the very least, see that the companies responsible are being less careless with human life.

Lily Robinson, Ryô Kase, Minami, Masayoshi Haneda, Akiko Iwase and Kenta Ogawa also star.

THE PROFESSOR (2018): New Trailer From Johnny Depp, Zoey Deutch, Rosemarie DeWitt, Ron Livingston…

From Writer/director Wayne Roberts, The Professor is a new comedy/drama about a professor’s new approach to life after he’s diagnosed with a terminal illness.

Johnny Depp, Zoey Deutch, Rosemarie DeWitt and Ron Livingston are among the key cast.

So far, I can’t say that I’m a fan of the edit of this rather long trailer. But it is Johnny Depp, and I’d like for the finished product to be engaging and amusing.

Is it just me who feels that the title ‘The Professor’ is a tad incomplete? I mean, as wrong as it may be, the word ‘Nutty‘ just keeps popping up as the missing piece. Can’t think why.

Justine Warrington, Danny Huston, Siobhan Fallon Hogan, Paloma Kwiatkowski, Odessa Young, and Michael Kopsa also star.

The Professor Release Dates: May 17th, 2019 (US)…

Directed by Brad Furman (The Infiltrator  (2016), starring Johnny Depp, Forest Whitaker and Toby Huss, City Of Lies is a new crime/drama about the investigation into the murders of Tupac Shakur and Notorious B.I.G.

I didn’t realise how much I missed a character played by Johnny Depp, one where his face wasn’t almost completely hidden by makeup and prosthetics, until I saw him in this trailer.

The subject matter is almost too dark and disturbing for me personally to watch, but curious, I remain. I also trust that Depp and Whitaker will make it worthwhile.

From David Yates (director of several Harry Potter films and the last Fantastic Beasts movie – Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (2016), Eddie Redmayne is back for Fantastic Beasts 2 – The Crimes of Grindenwald.

Redmayne is joined by Jude Law, Ezra Miller, Johnny Depp, Katherine Waterston, Colin Farell and others for more ‘wandtastic’ adventures as Newt Scamander.

The stunning visuals, including costume design, are why I’m in. I also can’t wait to see what Johny Depp’s character gets up to.

I have a feeling that this film is going to be a constant reminder of the reason why movies are my absolute favourite. They are, when done wonderfully, a true, perfect amalgamation of all the arts.

FANTASTIC BEASTS 2 – THE CRIMES OF GRINDENWALD (2018): New ‘First Look Trailer’ From Eddie Redmayne, Collin Farell,  Katherine Waterston…

Fantastic Beasts 2 – The Crimes of Grindenwald is the second instalment of the ‘Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them‘ series.

Directed by David Yates; starring Eddie Redmayne, Katherine Waterston, Johnny Depp, Colin Farrell and Ezra Miller, the story is all about the ongoing adventures of Newt Scamander.

I’m still yet to watch the first movie because fantasy isn’t my favourite genre. Nevertheless, it looks as though a lot of footage from the first movie has been used for this trailer. It could just be the general look of the films and the fact that Redmayne’s character appears to sport the same outfit at all times. You know, like Bart Simpson.

It could also be that the marketing people wanted to release something exactly a year before the first movie but they had absolutely nothing to show and so they opted to use old footage. That’s probably it.

I’m sure I’ll eventually make time for these movies. Especially since I put off watching Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children, and actually rather enjoyed it when I saw it, finally.
