Akira may be suffering set-backs (fans of the original the world over rejoice), but Garrett Hedlund doesn’t appear to be taking it to heart.

Deadline are reporting that the Coen Brothers have chosen a lead actor for their next production, which looks at the lives of a couple of singers during the early folk music scene in New York’s Greenwich Village in the 60’s (not the most mainstream of topics, but after the success of True Grit, they can [...]

To celebrate the launch of The Big Lebowski on Blu-ray Universal have gathered the cast back together for a Q&A, or as they are billing it – a Live Cast Reunion. Few films have the addled richness and wit of the Coen Brothers’ 1998 film and it remains a quotable, highly watchable film and one [...]

Well, yes. Obviously. I’m pretty sure that almost any film you could name (especially as widely discredited a turkey as Jonah Hex) would benefit from being directed by the Coen brothers. Josh Brolin of course worked with the Coens to considerable acclaim on No Country For Old Men and now has their fresh adaptation of True Grit [...]

The Coen’s latest film was a surprise hit of last year and has garnered deserved praise for its wit and outstanding central performance from Michael Stuhlbarg.

A Serious Man is the Coen brothers’ darkest comedy to date and perhaps their most personal film, set as it is in the Jewish-America suburbia of Minnesota in the 1960s. Their purposefully erratic filmography is a definite advantage as with most Coen films there is no indication of which direction the wild wind will blow, [...]
The Coens track record of attracting star names to their upcoming projects is testament their cinematic capability and the fact that so many actors want to work with them.
