With just a little over week till the world premiere of Source Code at this year's SXSW, (Friday March 11th) the push is on and each day brings another little glimpse of what we can expect.
Source Code did a smart thing, they advertised during the Oscars. Smart move. Because you know people who like movies watch the Oscars, and people who like movies GO to the movies. Talk about reaching your target audience.
Just like the loop Source Code is based on, let's review the premise one more time:
When decorated soldier Captain Colter Stevens wakes up in the body of an unknown man, he discovers he’s part of a mission to find the bomber of a Chicago commuter train. In an assignment unlike any he’s ever known, he learns he’s part of a government experiment called the “Source Code,” a program that enables him to cross over into another man’s identity in the last 8 minutes of his life. With a second, much larger target threatening to kill millions in downtown Chicago, Colter re- lives the incident over and over again, gathering clues each time, until he can solve the mystery of who is behind the bombs and prevent the next attack. Filled with mind- boggling twists and heart-pounding suspense, Source Code is a smart action-thriller.
So basically it's like playing Clue over and over until you figure out who did it, except you know two things it was on a train and with a bomb. Just combine that with more twists and turns than Chutes and Ladders (aka Snakes and Ladders to some).
And for more about SC, check out the newest clip of between Jake and Michelle
and German trailer for the movie. It's a little different than the other trailers that are out and don't mean just hearing Jake "speaking" German.
And it's looks like Source Code might not be Jake's last pistol packing movie.
Variety is reporting that Jake is talk to continue on the action hero road. He is in talk with David Ayer's for a gritty cop drama. Ayer is set to write and direct cop drama "End of Watch," with Jake in early discussions to star. It's a gritty drama that follows the friendship between longtime partners on the force. (Sure bet it's the LAPD, since Ayer's only movie not with a LAPD police officer in it is U-571, about a German submarine) Still early in the process they are still putting the movie together and are out to find financing.
Now Jake in a police uniform cut a little bit snug . Rayban Aviators. Badge and cuffs. The short 'do. Ohmy! Sure half of West Hollywood will get the vapors at the mere thought. too.
Talk about good cop, let's be bad cop!
Now... this may have been the reason for the short cropped hair not just the Oscars. Everyone knows that when Jake is interested in a part he goes all out to convince them he's the right guy. Why look like you fit the part when you're in talks about it.
Let the "Watch" begin.
