No, I'm not talking about Luna Lovegood, I know Evanna Lynch plays her. :) Just before their carriage arrives, Hannah Murray is on the one in front. :) That one pulls away as theirs arrives.
 
The international corporation set up by Saddam Hussein to launder money from his various enterprises was called Montana Management.

It was named after the Montana Management set up by Tony Montana in Scarface. Both of Hussein's sons are said to be big fans.
 
....yet to be directed by someone with talent. She came close, being directed by her own brother in Nil By Mouth and did very well.
 
Having watched Shawshank Redemtion the other day for the millionth time, Clancy Brown who plays Byron Hadley (Captain of the guarRAB) also does the voice for Mr Krabs in Spongebob. :eek:

Can anyone think of any similar discoveries that really you should have already known about, but didn't. Please share them. :)
 
Michael J Fox was the lead in a tv show filmed during the day and was cast in Back to the future after geting the tv role. he had to film the tv show in the day and then the film at night hence why so many scenes are set at night.

Kiefer Sutherland was only supposed to wear black gloves in the Lost Boys but broke his wrist during filming so had to keep the gloves on to cover the cast.
 
No, she wasn't. SMG has nothing to do with Burton's Alice in Wonderland. She was lined up to play an older Alice in a movie of 'American McGee's Alice', originally a videogame. The movie never got off the ground.
 
The late sixties disaster epic Krakatoa: East of Java is geographicaly incorrect.

It's actually west of Java. The producers learned this only after it was too late to rename it.
 
In "Enter The Dragon", in the underground fight scene, a man grabs Bruce Lee. Lee gets out of it and the breaks the mans' neck and arm. That man is Jackie Chan.
Jackie Chan is also side-kicked through the paper screen wall in Bruce Lees' "Fist Of Fury"

Actually, I've known these things for years !:D
 
The murder mystery "Wicked, Wicked" is in Duovision: the screen is divided into 2 vertically all the way through, showing the same action from 2 different angles.
After 5 minutes you're praying for it to stop.:eek:
 
The Spencer Tracy movie "North West Passage" never gets to the NWP; it was planned as a two parter but the second part was never made. The movie is actually meant to be called "Rogers' Rangers".
 
The actor who played the Scottish chef Shughie McFee in CrossroaRAB (Angus Lennie) was in the film Great Escape. Also, Anthony Hopkins was not the first actor to play Hannibal Lectre. Brian Cox played that role in Manhunter.
 
I still find it hilarious that Gary Oldman is the younger brother of Laila Morse (Eastenders' Big Mo). Fancy having her round for one of your Hollywood do's...
