Jack Aubrey Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 I thought 'National Treasure' was fantastic and one of the best movies I'd seen in a long while. Now on to the news. Thanks to my friends at Jo Blo: QUOTE NATIONAL TREASURE 2 is already filming in Washington, DC so it's surprising that no casting details have been announced yet. Well that's what JoBlo.com is here for! We've got the scoop on which Academy Award favorites have joined the cast of BOOK OF SECRETS. Signing on to play Nicolas Cage's mother, Emily Gates, is recent Oscar-winner Helen Mirren. She's there to help link Cage's Ben Gates to his family's connection to John Wilkes Booth and the mysterious Knights of the Gold Circle. Now we have our protagonists in Cage and Mirren but a movie is only as strong as its bad guy and Disney has managed to cast one of the best "bad guy" actors around: four time Oscar nominee Ed Harris. Harris will star as Jeb Wilkinson, who has some information about Gates' father and aligns himself as an ally, but...well, you can guess where it goes from here. Talk about some pretty impressive additions to the cast!... Returning to star in SECRETS from the first film are Diane Kruger, Justin Bartha and Harvey Keitel. Disney has BOOK OF SECRETS scheduled for release on December 17th of this year. Ed Harris! ED FREAKING HARRIS! Yaaaaaayyyyyy! (Yeah, I'm a fan.)

progrush2112 Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 The first one was great and I can't wait for this one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Owl Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 Don't let the Disney logo fool you into passing this franchise off, this is Bruckheimer we're talking about. Disney realised with the first Pirates of the Caribbean that pairing up with Bruckheimer was a good idea. And achieved great results (albiet not of that of Pirates) with National Treasure. I am looking foward to this flick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kudzu Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 Thought the first one was kinda lame, although Cage and Bean both turned in some fine acting as always. Don't really care about this one. (I'll admit, though, that it wasn't quite as bad as I was expecting it to be.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ancient Ways Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 Diane Kruger was hot in the first one. I'm definitely looking forward to this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
