It seems as if things are moving forward for VEI with the film slate.i imagine that we will begin to hear casting news for Harbinger in the near future.
This is what happens when you try to work...

Re: Bloodshot starring Vin Diesel to film in May!
Was hoping he said something on his Facebook... but I see this is still a rumor of sorts since it even mentions delays depending on when Fast 9 films.... fast 8 still sitting on DVR... so... you know... not hurry, Vin, if you want to go to Budapest and South Africa first and wear that circle on your chest....

Re: Bloodshot starring Vin Diesel to film in May!
Yeah, it’s in no way an official announcement or press release, but it sounds like they’ve at least started scheduling locations and production. Which means casting is likely set, and they’re assuming it’s Vin Diesel since he was the last name attached. If it’s all true and it’s now been leaked, I’d expect something official during the week when more people are paying attention (I was surprised the CBR post on Twitter was 20 min old and no one had posted it hear yet, for example).WrathOfArmstrong wrote: Was hoping he said something on his Facebook... but I see this is still a rumor of sorts since it even mentions delays depending on when Fast 9 films.... fast 8 still sitting on DVR... so... you know... not hurry, Vin, if you want to go to Budapest and South Africa first and wear that circle on your chest....

Re: Bloodshot starring Vin Diesel to film in May!
They have had locations and "set" stuff already scheduled, actually for a bit.
I'm sure the "official" announcement will be soon.

Cue up the Tonight Show app.........
"and now he will be playing Bloodshot, the next superhero to grace the silver screen, ladies and gentlemen please welcome......"

Re: Bloodshot starring Vin Diesel to film in May!
This'll be interesting. He's clearly been interested in playing a a role in a comicbook movie for a while now. So this might be it.
Also, yes I'm aware he's Groot but let's be honest he'd probably like to be in something where he says more than Groot.

Re: Bloodshot starring Vin Diesel to film in May!
Yeah, Chronicles of Riddick never took off as a franchise the way he hoped (wound up with that random 3rd film that dumped everything from CoR and badly redid Pitch Black). I do think he’s a decent actor and can pull off the role well. Actually more interested in seeing who rounds out the cast. Sony hasn’t been known for great casting in their movies overall.dornwolf wrote:This'll be interesting. He's clearly been interested in playing a a role in a comicbook movie for a while now.

Re: Bloodshot starring Vin Diesel to film in May!
So glad to read this. Diesel is the best star match for the character, especially considering the others mentioned. Hope all goes as planned.

Re: Bloodshot starring Vin Diesel to film in May!
Top Grossing actor of 2017- wtf?! I know that those cars movies have their loyal fanbase but that's crazy.
Awesome for Valiant, this is what they are about now, and *SQUEE*, you can't get any better than starting your movie universe with the Top Grossing Actor of 2017 at the front. Vin Diesel will make more money for Valiant than everything before combined and then some, if they nail the character right.

Well, that's gotta include the box office for Guardians of the Galaxy II.ShadowTuga wrote:Top Grossing actor of 2017- wtf?! I know that those cars movies have their loyal fanbase but that's crazy.
But still, it's great casting. I much prefer him over Leto.

Re: Bloodshot starring Vin Diesel to film in May!
One of the first things I was told .... when the actor was possibly discussed with me is his "stats".
Including his massive social media following.
When this finally gets officially announced, it will bring "Valiant" to literally millions of more peeps. No exaggeration at all.
I loved the idea of Leto (based on the place My So Called Life has in my memories), but.....
Vin for the Win!

Re: Bloodshot starring Vin Diesel to film in May!
Very interesting. The timing of the Valiant sale to DMG and now this news seems peculiar.
I finally watched "Arrival" this weekend and I'm really glad Heiserrer is the screenwriter.
I feel like s "Bloodshot" movie has the potential to do well as it should hopefully be a bit different than the other superhero fare that has mostly been released.
I do wonder if the Capetown water shortage could effect them filming there.

Re: Bloodshot starring Vin Diesel to film in May!
I am thrilled at the possibility of Vin Diesel being Bloodshot. Hopefully this does actually happen (without falling through). My kids (and myself) are big fans of all the Fast and Furious movies. Diesel will be a big draw for the world to see this "Bloodshot Character."
All future Valiant Cinamatic draw and appeal will hinge on this first film. If Sony/DMG get it right (with Vin Diesel starring) then the floodgates will open and the sky is the limit. Other big stars would want to play Valiant Characters down the line in the next movies. It would be great to see other "must see" actors/actresses get drawn in.
The only slight negative that I could say about Vin Diesel is that he is older for this part (almost 50 years old). In 10 years it will be hard to imagine him still playing this part (if there are still Valiant movies being made). But, he would be a huge general public draw now for people that have not heard of Valiant. Hopefully some of the actors for the Harbinger Film will be younger for the long haul.

Re: Bloodshot starring Vin Diesel to film in May!
It's pretty exciting. We know absolutely nothing about the rest of the cast, which is a bit odd, but we also may get a bunch of releases of people being added to the movie, if it does indeed start shooting. I've always said that the first movie has a lot riding on it and needs to be good and make money. It does seem like his crap movies do pretty good. Last Witch Hunter made almost $150 Mil off a $90 mil budget. He is a huge box office draw.
