WAR PIGS (Ryan Little, 2015)

He might have chosen to keep his accent simple English not to make it sound fake actually (it's not like he had so much time to train like on a big movie or something), and will only say a couple or a few lines in French, appropriates to the situation(s).

Better off. I much prefer the Valkyrie approach, it's less distracting.

Wrapping principal photography this week, even today apparently, so this was really a quick shoot overall (18-21 shooting days), not just for Dolph -who took part to a good half of it.

Award Winning Producer Chad A. Verdi Strikes Gold at AFM with His Latest Film, War Pigs

Cinedigm acquires North American rights, plans spring theatrical release; Mickey Rourke and Dolph Lundgren headline in film

New York, NY - Point Roberts, WA - November 19, 2014 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Investorideas.com, a global news source covering leading sectors including entertainment reports on the following breaking entertainment news, ‘Award winning producer Chad A Verdi's strikes gold at AFM with his latest featured film, War Pigs'.

Verdi Productions producer Chad A. Verdi told Investor Ideas that Cinedigm acquired North American rights and plans a spring 2015 theatrical release. The film stars Mickey Rourke and Dolph Lundgren. Ryan Little, the director of 2013 WWII drama Saints and Soldiers, helmed War Pigs. The plot has a ragtag group of misfits on a secret mission behind enemy lines to find and capture a secret weapon being developed by Adolf Hitler and the SS. Luke Goss (Hellboy II), Noah Segan (Looper) and UFC fighter Chuck Liddell also co-star. Cinedigm plans to release War Pigs theatrically next spring.

Verdi stated, "VMI has also sold the title to multiple international territories, including to Klockworx in Japan, Signature Entertainment in the U.K., Program Store in France and Rialto Pictures for Australia."

Verdi added, "My wife Michelle and I are very excited about this film and we have huge box- office expectations."

Probably self-publicity.

A limited theatrical release hopefully means better advertising, professional reviews and a Blu Ray release.

Let's not get our hopes out, it's a very small movie and limited release also means not much money left for publicity, if this happens it would be kind of an "honorific" release.

I hope SKIN TRADE gets better treatment, it's a much more serious and bigger project that deserves it.

Who'd wear this kind of hairdrop during WW2 like this dude has.

[Jox]

Right.

I was actually thinking, given the pitch and the way they're hyping it on Facebook and hinting they're considering including rock songs, that this is definitely not gonna be a film that takes itself very seriously and probably less than Ryan Little's previous WW2 films (but this is not his pet project, but young producer Steven Luke's)...

Nice interview of Luke Goss.
As we expected it won't a shootem up action picture, which is fine by me. Seems Dolph will have some punchline et will take advantage of his funny side. I'm all for it.

I don't know, it still seems pretty straight forward and I now beware of what actors say as often they do tend to make projects and roles sound deeper than what they actually are. The FB page (I believe run by its writer/producer/actor/reenactment geek Steven Luke alias Luke Schuetzle) makes it sound a bit cheesy, at least by the way it's handled. We'll see, but it doesn't seem as serious as the previous Ryan LIttle WWII films.

On the subject of having a lighter tone. I don't mind at all. It brings to mind stuff like The Dirty Dozen, The Inglorious Bastards and Kelly's Heroes.

I'd actually read up on these guys years ago. The Filthy Thirteen where a paratrooper unit, who all had their heads shaved into mohawks.
