In this morning’s batch of movie news, we have yet another Ben Affleck related story, as he is eyeing his next directorial feature in the form of a Live By Night, from the author of Gone Baby Gone; James Franco, Glenn Close, and Brit Marling are lined up to star in The Grace That Keeps This World, and more.
Since the original film was released in 2007, there have been talks about creating a second installment of I Am Legend. This is now becoming a reality, as Warner Bros. secured producer Akiva Goldsman and Overbrook Entertainment to help create the second movie. However, Warner Brothers is still trying to convince Will Smith to reprise his role. Rumor has it the film will not be a prequel, despite some talk in the past few years.
