EXCLUSIVE: Amber Heard has been chosen for the female lead opposite Dominic Cooper in Motor City, the Chad St. John-scripted revenge tale that Albert Hughes will direct for Joel Silver’s Dark Castle. Heard tested among several young actresses and got the job. Cooper (The Devil’s Double) plays a man released from prison who goes on a revenge mission, hunting down the people who framed him. Heard, who just starred opposite Johnny Depp in The Rum Diary, is repped by CAA.







Wow. This project sounds really intense and original.
“A man released from prison goes on a revenge mission, hunting down the people who framed him.”
This concept of revenge… I’m surprised no one’s made a movie about it already. This is on my must-see list.
Yes, perhaps he met a priest in jail who gave him a map of an island on which a great treasure is hidden.
hahah. Love it!
the script has no dialogue. try that one on.

You’re surprised no one made a movie about a felon getting revenge?? Is that supposed to be funny? They did doofus…it’s called Oldboy. Stop watching Transformers and live a little.
And what about if… wait for it!… these same people killed his wife?!?
Terrible in THE WARD
Terrible in PLAYBOY CLUB
Terrible in DRIVE ANGRY
She’s hot but terrible.
She was great in ZOMBIELAND. She plays dead well. [insert snarky joke here]
Yes, all 3 seconds of her. [snarky joke inserted]
Oh, and if you haven’t seen her in ALL THE BOYS LOVE MANDY LANE, Netflix it now. One of her better performances.
You are totally insane. ATBLML is so bad, Heard especially, I thought the big twist was that she was mentally handicapped. The only thing that turned out to be retarded was me, for buying a ticket.
Syrup better be the best maple ever made. Who advises this actress on the choice of movies. Rum Dairies fun working vacation in nice locale, but why make it? Then she jumps into the Dark Castle Shop of sh%t movies. You only go around a few times to get the the gold ring on the movie carousel. She maybe on the last rotation.
Pretty Girl think out of the box. Chalize Theron????

Amber Heard is really gorgeous and very talented. It’ll be an exceptional performance, just wonderful.
Amber Heard is really (amazingly, indescribably, utterly, totally, sublimely, incredibly) gorgeous and very (amazingly, indescribably, utterly, totally, sublimely, incredibly) talented. It will be an (amazingly, indescribably, utterly, totally, sublimely, incredibly) exceptional performance, just (amazingly, indescribably, utterly, totally, sublimely, incredibly) wonderful. There, I think that nails it better.
completely inspired, brilliantly understated commentary…totally
I had the pleasure of briefly working with Amber. She was extraordinarily kind and stunning in person. I hope she finds success in the industry. It’s rare when the good guy (or girl) succeeds.
I’m baffled that Amber Heard keeps getting hired. Or maybe it’s just a life-sized cardboard cut out of her that keeps getting hired. It would be hard to tell the difference.
She’s a genuinely nice person with a sweet disposition and gets along well with cast, crew and directors. She’s not Helen Mirren, but she gets work because people like working with her, and she’s nice to look at. Compared to the recent stock of icy bitches like Megan Fox, January Jones and Olivia Wilde, she’s a veritable diamond in the rough.
Amber Heard is a terrible actress. Any comments contrary on this blog is surely posted by her manager, agent, girlfriend and family.
Yeah, they’ve have been astroturfing movie sites for a while now. Just go check every article on the Grace Kelly biopic for proof.
Anyway she’s a pretty girl, but a terrible actress.
Who did she test against? A doorknob? I’d rather watch paint dry than watch this girl (attempt) to act.
I’m sure she’s a nice person, and she is stunningly beautiful, but dammit all, and it really pains me to say this, she’s just not a good actor.
good for her, just one more movie i won’t be seeing with her in it because she’s about as dynamic & talented as a box of rocks.
yeah, shes a terrible actress but also incredibly hot. cant remember i ever saw a prettier girl.
i will watch this movie.
Absolutely beautiful but really, really boring actor. She’s just awful and since Hollywood is full of beautiful twentysomething actresses, there’s no reason to cast her.
Don’t forget that not only is she a terrible actress but is also box-office poison. WB, better beware.
Amber Heard is stunning!
3 words her best movie is Never Back Down.
HATERS GONNA HATE.
I’ll never forget how she ran through those sprinklers on the HIDDEN PALMS pilot or the hottest game of marco polo ever on screen in ALPHA DOGS with Amber, Amanda Seyfried and Anton Yelchin (before Justin Timberlake shot him in the desert).
You watched Alpha Dogs?? What the fuck were you thinking man?
