WANTED MAN (Dolph Lundgren, 2023)

[alex.sp89]

Trailer looks good. Ithink the budget on this was highter than his last directed movie with Scott Adkins as one of the leads. Subject about cartel is very serious in Mexico and South California the last few decades...No joke , how brutal they are torturing and mutilating people...

Hands up for this. Michael Pare is so unrecognizable in this, looks more like Ethan Hawke... Pare is also the one who deserved a bettter career in late 80s early 90s. He went DTV too early in my opinion. Pare said n one interview that he left his agent because some famous director called him personal to star in a movie and he refused because his agent advised him to do so. Later on that movie became a hit and Academy Award winner. I wonder what movie was that, because he never mentioned the name of it ?!

Awesome trailer, my only complaint is the tv-ish frame rate, but looks definetly solid and better than many dtvs!

It took me a 10th viewing, but we can catch Michael Worth in the trailer (blink and you'll miss him, 46th second).

This advance artwork was already shown at the time of Cannes last May, possibly even before...




Nathan saw the new art at the recent AFM, which this little preview is based from:

Nice, figured the US would come before Scandinavia.

EDIT:

Kelsey Grammer was asked about his Trump "endorsing". I don't mean to bring politics at all, it's just to underline that Grammer gets some good press recently due to his Frasier comeback, and I wonder if he would be willing to promote Wanted Man.

Grammer is a Trump supporter? Ouch...

Grammer is a Trump supporter? Ouch...

Grammer's long been a conservative, so this is nothing new. And chances are, he will most likely playing the dirty cop in charge of the crooked DEA agents, so I doubt that this will receive much in terms of "negative" press or attention (mainly because it leans in the direction that the media prefers). Regardless, I doubt we'll be seeing Grammer do press. If he didn't do press for MONEY PLANE, I highly doubt we'll see much from him for this.

[Jox]

I hear you.

Grammer is pretty much unknown over here in France, where I don't even think FRAZIER was aired in a mainstream way, apart from a some cable channels that few people had at the time...



Nice to see Screen Anarchy (formerly Twitch Film) picked up the story:

Normally, when someone says it is so-and-so's action flick you look closer and find out that they're merely starring in said action flick. Not here. Lundgren not only stars in the flick but he co-wrote it, produced and directed it - his eighth feature film at the helm during his career.

A trailer is forthcoming. We'll share it here when it arrives.
