A Green Mann (Collaboration)?


After checking Marion Cotillard off of his international-actresses-to-work-with list, Michael Mann might be working with another French Beauty: Eva Green (according to The Playlist). This is the first news I've heard about Mann's potential film about Spanish Civil War photographer Robert Capa, and it's nice to know that the project is moving forward. Green is quite the alluring actress, though I don't think she's had a chance to really shine in a movie since Casino Royale almost four years ago. Mann's movies tend to be pretty male-oriented, but hey, Cotillard was the shining light of Public Enemies. But of course the real question is who will play Capa. I'm not familiar with the man or his work, and this is the first time I've ever seen a picture of him, so I haven't given a lot of thought as to who could play him. As far as looks go...maybe Joaquin Phoenix? I definitely see it in the brow, although obviously make-up would be required.
