“The Big Game Looms” is a blog about upcoming blockbusters starring well-known actresses who have grown more beautiful with age.
It was started by a group of film fans who were tired of reading the same list of actors and directors being praised for their work, while their favorite actresses were getting little attention.
The blog will feature reviews of movies that feature women in lead roles and are written by women. It will also highlight the work of female directors and writers. We want to show how diverse female filmmakers are, and how their movies can be just as powerful as those made by men.
We hope you’ll join us on our journey to celebrate women in film!
A new decade is upon us and the 2010s are fast approaching. With each passing year, we see the arrival of several highly-anticipated films and tons of promising new stars. But which films should you be looking out for?
Featuring some of the biggest names in Hollywood, from Angelina Jolie to Sandra Bullock, these upcoming films are sure to please even the most discerning film fan.
You’ve probably never heard of them, but once you do you won’t forget them. You can’t miss out on these movies!
The first thing that you need to know about these films is that they star well-known actresses who have grown more beautiful with age. They’re not just pretty girls anymore; they’re women who have matured into their roles and characters over the years.”””
It is a truth universally acknowledged that an actor in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a franchise.
That famous first sentence of Pride and Prejudice has never been more true than today as Hollywood studios, desperate to inject some much-needed life into their bottom lines, are turning to the surest thing they can think of: sequels, prequels, adaptations, and remakes (and even sequels to sequels).
But how can this venerable old business model keep providing new product? The solution is obvious: aging actresses.
Consider these upcoming blockbusters:
The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part Two (November 20) – Jennifer Lawrence plays Katniss Everdeen for the last time in this third sequel about her ongoing rebellion against the tyrannical regime. At age 25, Lawrence has grown into one of Hollywood’s most powerful actresses.
Spectre (November 6) – As James Bond’s love interest in Spectre, Monica Bellucci plays the oldest woman to ever have that role. At 50 years old (and after having two children), Bellucci says she has never felt more beautiful and sexy.
Star Wars: The Force Awakens (December 18) – Carrie Fisher made her film debut as Princess Leia at 19 years old
With a new year comes the anticipation of a new set of movies. This year we are looking forward to some old favorites, as well as some new faces and fan favorites. The women on our list have all grown up before our eyes, with each one getting better with age.
Let’s take a look at what is coming out in 2017 and who we can expect to see on the big screen this year.
Meryl Streep: She is an Academy Award winning actress who first gained recognition in the late 1970s for her work in films such as “The Deer Hunter”, “Kramer Vs. Kramer” and “Sophie’s Choice”. She has since become one of the most respected actors of her generation, winning two more Oscars for her performances in “Iron Lady” and “Julie & Julia”. She can currently be seen starring opposite Hugh Grant in the comedy-drama film “Florence Foster Jenkins”.
Kate Winslet: She has been nominated for seven Academy Awards and won one for Best Actress in 2008 for her performance as Clementine Kruczynski in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Her other notable roles include Sarah Pierce from Little Children, April Wheeler from Revolutionary Road.
The biggest question of the year is whether or not Jennifer Aniston and Angelina Jolie have grown more beautiful with age. On their own, both actresses are considered to be among the most beautiful women in the world, but what happens when they’re put together?
After all, this is a movie that features two of Hollywood’s most famous actresses, who will be competing for the same role. That alone should give anyone pause. This is certainly a question that has plagued us all: Who is hotter/more beautiful/more famous between Jennifer Aniston and Angelina Jolie?
For years, this question has been asked and argued about. But now that we finally know for sure, we can move on. We’ve looked at the facts. We’ve considered the evidence. And now we have our conclusion: Jennifer Aniston and Angelina Jolie are equally hot.
The upcoming film, which stars well-known actresses Jessica Lange and Susan Sarandon, is directed by Michael Radford. It is a period piece set in the 1930s, with Lange starring as a widow and Sarandon as her friend. The two women seek revenge against a local nobleman who wronged them.
The film debuted at the Cannes Film Festival in May, where it received mostly positive reviews. The Hollywood Reporter wrote that the film’s “stunning visuals, strong performances and intelligent script make it one of the most impressive new films of the year.”
“It’s definitely a movie that will be remembered for years to come,” USA Today wrote. “This is a beautifully crafted story about friendship and betrayal that should not be missed.”
