The official site for Solaris goes live, with a number of stills (basically George Clooney and/or Natasha McElhone running around the elegantly designed space station.) I was hoping to catch the original at the Film Forum but it’s already gone. If Soderbergh is right when he describes the remake as “2001: A Space Odyssey meets Last Tango in Paris,” it sounds like the premier date movie for the fanboy/fangirl nation (this side of The Two Towers, of course.)

Superman lives?
With Superman v. Batman falling by the wayside, WB looks to move a Superman feature instead. The good news is they’re trying to replace McG with David Fincher, Michael Mann, or Steven Soderbergh. The bad news is the screenwriter (J.J. Abrams, of Alias) wants McG.
Who’s there?
Corona gets a peek at the set design of Stephen Soderbergh’s Solaris.
Trailer Smorgasbord.
New teasers and trailers abound this past weekend, including the ones for Daredevil (I dunno…looks goofy. We’ll see.), xXx (looks more fun than any Bond movie I’ve seen in the past ten years), Goldmember (a bit long in the tooth, Michael Caine notwithstanding), and the Soderbergh/Cameron Solaris remake (I have very, very high hopes for this one.)
