Nomis had its premiere as the closing film for this year’s Los Angeles Film Festival last Friday, September 28th. Unfortunately, Henry is busy with The Witcher duties and couldn’t make it at the film’s premiere. He shared a message to fans about it on his Instagram. Also, a new poster and a new still from the film have been released. Check them out in our gallery!
Nomis is set to close this year’s Los Angeles Film Festival tomorrow, September 28. Entertainment Weekly released a short clip from the thriller, featuring Henry’s Marshall and a fellow officer having brought in the suspect in a massive case.
After being announced as the new face of Hugo Boss’ BOSS Eyewear last May, Henry stars in the second part of the #SharpenYourFocus campaign as the brand’s Fall/Winter 2018 collection kicks off. Check out new images of Henry from the campaign in our gallery! Also, watch the Scene Two video of the campaign featuring Henry.
This news is still unofficial, but I thought I’d still post it here. It looks like we have seen the last of Henry donning the red cape as contract talks break down between Henry’s reps and Warner Bros.
HOLLYWOOD REPORTER – The DC cinematic universe appears to be losing its Man of Steel.
Henry Cavill, who has played Superman in three films, is parting ways with Warner Bros., sources tell The Hollywood Reporter. Though neither side is confirming, the British actor, who first donned the blue suit for 2013’s Man of Steel, and then starred in 2016’s Batman v. Superman and last year’s Justice League, is said to be hanging up the red cape.
Warners had been trying to enlist Cavill, who most recently co-starred in Mission: Impossible — Fallout, for a Superman cameo in Shazam!, which stars Zachary Levi and will bow April 5. But contract talks between Cavill’s WME reps and Warners broke down, and the door is now closing on other potential Superman appearances.
That’s because the studio has shifted its focus to a Supergirl movie, which will be an origin story featuring a teen superheroine. This effectively removes an actor of Cavill’s age from the storyline’s equation given that Superman, aka Kal-El, would be an infant, according to DC lore.
Furthermore, Warners isn’t likely to make a solo Superman film for at least several years, according to another source. “Superman is like James Bond, and after a certain run you have to look at new actors,” says a studio source. As such, Cavill will join Ben Affleck, who isn’t expected to reprise his role for director Matt Reeves’ forthcoming Batman stand-alone film, as a hero on the way out.
A Warners source says the Shazam! deal fell apart because of scheduling conflicts. And that is backed up by the fact that Cavill recently signed on to star in the Netflix series The Witcher. However, another source says that the Witcher commitment came after the Warners impasse, suggesting a change in Warners’ strategy.
“There’s a recognition that some parts of the previous movies didn’t work,” says the studio insider. Another source says Warners is trying to hit a “reset” button with the DC universe, steering its ship slowly into another direction.
One of Henry’s upcoming projects will be coming sooner than we all thought, as the Los Angeles Film Festival selects Nomis for its closing night on September 28th!
DEADLINE – The Los Angeles Film Festival will close with the world premiere of first-time writer/director David Raymond’s psychological thriller Nomis, which will screen on Sept. 28 at the Arclight Hollywood Cinerama Dome.
The film focuses on a police trap for online predator Simon Stulls. They soon realize that the extent of his crimes go far beyond that of his own psychological trauma. Nothing quite makes sense – that is, until people involved in the case on both sides of the law start getting murdered. Nomis stars Henry Cavill, Sir Ben Kingsley, Nathan Fillion, Minka Kelly, Alexandra Daddario and Stanley Tucci.
“As a festival that has always championed new voices, it is only fitting to be closing this year with the work of a first-time writer/director,” said Jennifer Cochis, LA Film Festival Director. “In Nomis, David Raymond created a thrilling film made all the more terrifying by the performances from his incredible cast.”
Henry might not have a film premiering at this year’s Venice Film Festival, but he was there yesterday to attend the gala dinner hosted by Jaeger-LeCoultre. Check out some photos in our gallery!
