Simon Baker Hunts ‘The Killer Inside Me’

Published

on

Simon Baker – who is quickly becoming a signifier of “cheese” – will be starring alongside Casey Affleck, Jessica Alba, Elias Koteas, Kate Hudson, Bill Pullman and Ned Beatty in Michael Winterbottom’s The Killer Inside Me. Could this be the most unimpressive and unimaginative casting this year? Quite possibly. Baker has starred in a slew of crappy horror films including The Ring Two, Not Forgotten and The Lodger, but also took on zombies in Romero’s Land of the Dead. The story centers on a West Texas sheriff (Affleck) and his downward spiral from a boring small-town cop into a ruthless, sociopathic murderer. Baker plays a county attorney looking to expose the sheriff as the killer. Filming begins this week in New Mexico and Oklahoma.

Up next from Rampage director Brad Peyton is the sci-fi movie Atlas for Netflix, and Netflix has unleashed the brand new official trailer this morning. You can check it out below.

Jennifer Lopez stars in Atlas, which will likely be streamed for 100 billion minutes in its first week of release. Whatever that means. It’s coming exclusively to Netflix on May 24.

“The film follows Atlas, a woman fighting for humanity in a future where an AI soldier has determined the only way to end war is to end humanity. To outthink this rogue AI, Atlas must work with the one thing she fears most — another AI.”

The upcoming science fiction film’s cast also includes Simu Liu, Sterling K. Brown, Gregory James Cohan, Abraham Popoola, Lana Parrilla and Mark Strong.

Peyton said in a recent statement, “Having the chance to direct Jennifer Lopez in the title role of this movie is a dream come true, as I know she’ll bring the incredible strength, depth and authenticity we’ve all come to admire from her work.”

Leo Sardarian wrote the original script, with the latest draft by Aron Eli Coleite.

Producers for the Netflix genre movie include Peyton, Lopez, Jeff Fierson, Joby Harold, Tory Tunnell, Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas, Benny Medina, Greg Berlanti and Sarah Schechter.
