Hi Guys! Sorry for the lack up updates, been busy with other things plus the news in Emily’s world has been a bit sluggish. But anyways, I have made 20 LiveJournal icons for you to use anywhere you’d like. I will try to change the layout and get the chatbox back. I requested for the password to be sent to me but I never got the email about it so I will have to make a new one. Hope you understand.

Scott Glenn is a wise man, or at least he’ll play one in Zack Snyder’s Sucker Punch. According to Empire Online, Glenn has joined the all-girl cast of the film that includes Emily Browning, Vanessa Hudgens, Abbie Cornish, Jena Malone and Jamie Chung. Glenn will serve as a mentor/guide to the Sucker Punch bunch. He’ll be what Professor Utonium was to the Powerpuff Girls.

The film will revolve around Browning as the lead heroine Babydoll, who tries to escape a mental asylum after she discovers that her step-father plans on having her lobotomized in five days. Jon Hamm has also been cast in the film, but it has not been confirmed whether or not he’ll be taking on the evil role.

With so many girls and so little men, I can’t help but think of other female-dominated films like Charlie’s Angels and Little Women. They all featured amazing male characters, so Glenn and Hamm will be in safe hands. Scott has plenty of roles on his resume to support his “wiseman” act, such as his take on Jack Crawford in The Silence of the Lambs. Aside from Snyder’s huge cast, the plot sounds pretty good — asylums, nicknames, action? Where do I sign up?

The action-packed film hits theaters March 15, 2011.

While promoting Sorority Row, actress Jamie Chung has been talking about Zack Snyder’s upcoming film Sucker Punch, in which she is featured alongside Emily Browning, Jenna Malone, Vanessa Hudgens, Abbie Cornish and supporting players Carla Gugino and Jon Hamm. We know a few things about the film: Browning plays Baby Doll, a girl confined to a mental institution by her stepfather. She escapes into outlandish, violent fantasy to deal with her predicament. Chung gets a bit more specific, though, and her comments follow the break. Are they spoilers? Not really, if you’ve been reading what we’ve covered so far.

ComingSoon has the roundtable talk, in which Chung reiterates that each of the girls cast in the film have one character in the real world and another in fantasy. The core is this:

[Baby Doll] goes into these fever dreams to escape. Somehow her alternate reality affects her reality, just like in ‘Alice in Wonderland.’ All of the characters in her fever dreams are from her real life. And the girls plan to escape and they come up with a plan and things go terribly wrong and it really does affect her reality.

The things going terribly wrong’ sections will likely be seriously violent, and the stunt team Snyder used for 300 are on board, which we already knew. Chung says the film “puts 300 to shame! It’s the same stunt guys, 87Eleven. Damon (Caro) and Logan, the trainer. But it really is 300 but with a female cast.” That being the case, I’m trying to figure out how this will make a PG-13. Not because of the level of violence, but because other reports have said that Baby Doll envisions at least part of the asylum as a brothel, and she’s trying to escape some level of sexual threat. The MPAA is fine with rating violent stuff PG-13, but when sex is brought into the equation everything changes.

Oscar Isaac is rounding out the cast of Zack Snyder’s “Sucker Punch.”

The Warner Bros./Legendary drama, centering on a girl who’s institutionalized by her stepfather and retreats into an alternative reality, will begin shooting this fall. Emily Browning plays the girl; Carla Gugino, Vanessa Hudgens, Jamie Chung, Jena Malone, Scott Glenn and Abbie Cornish are also on board.

Zack and Deborah Snyder are producing “Sucker Punch” through their Cruel & Unusual banner. He’s directing from a script he co-wrote with Steven Shibuya.

Isaac, last seen in “Body of Lies” and “Che,” has been in production on Ridley Scott’s untitled Robin Hood adventure for Universal alongside Russell Crowe, Cate Blanchett, and William Hurt. He’ll be seen next in Alejandro Amenabar’s romancer “Agora,” with Rachel Weisz, and in indie drama “Balibo,” set amid the Indonesian invasion of East Timor in 1975.

He’s repped by WME and Inspire Entertainment.

Emily Browning alongside Vanessa, Nikki Reed, Elizabeth Reaser, and Jamie Chung were spotted at a local Vancouver stored Aritzia boutique on August 21st.

I will be setting up the forum in a couple of days an I would think it would be nice to have several different themes to choose from made by the lovely frequent visitors of EBO. So this is what you do if you’d like to make a graphic/banner for the forum; Create a graphic 700pixels (width) by 300-350pixels (height) with Emily on it (you may use any photo you want except for personal photos) with the text saying Emily Browning Online Forum Uniting all Emily Browning fans worldwide and than send it to emilybrowningonline[at]gmail.com. Only 5 graphics will be accepted. I am busy at the moment so this help would be really appreciated.

It’s been a while since we’ve heard anything about Zack Snyder’s upcoming all girl, ass-kicking fest, Sucker Punch. The last time I checked they were playing a serious game of shuffle board with it’s actors. According to Yahoo, we can expect another full blooded female to join the cast in the form of Watchmen alumni, Carla Gugino. The cast currently includes Emily Browning, Jamie Chung, Jena Malone, Vanessa Hudgens, and Abbie Cornish.

Set in the 1950’s, Sucker Punch is about a young girl committed to an insane asylum, who dreams of escaping with the help of her fellow inmates. The leader of the pack is Baby Doll (Browning), a girl who’s step-father plans on having her lobotomized in five days. Gugino will star in the role of Mrs. Schultz, one of the adults at the institution. Since the film will have a pretty heavy dose of action, the primary actresses are currently in martial arts training. Sucker Punch is expected to start shooting this fall in Vancouver.

I love how the description of Gugino’s character is kept so vague. She could be a psycho too for all we know! It would be cool to see her get in on some of the martial arts action as well. We didn’t really get to see much of it in Watchmen.

Moviegoes won’t see the mad-house girls of “Sucker Punch” until 2011, but director Zack Snyder has comely young inmates — including Abbie Cornish, right — in training already.

After the bloody hyper-reality of “300″ and the alternate-universe intensity of “Watchmen,” filmmkaer Snyder is ramping up for “Sucker Punch,” a surreal action film about a young woman who hopes to brak out of an pyschiatric unit with the help of the her four new wild-child friends, who may just be in her head.

The stars of the film are Emily Browning (“Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events”), Jamie Chung (“Dragonball Evolution”) Jena Malone (“Into the Wild”), Cornish (“Stop-Loss”) and, joltingly, Disney’s very own Vanessa Hudgens of “High School Musical” fame.

Cornish, who plays the leader-of-the-pack Sweetpea, said that Snyder (below, left) has the starlets working out like Spartan warriors.

“Sometimes,” she said, “I forget I’m an actor. We’re training so hard.” How hard? She said their five-day-a-week morning is “doing martial fighting, swords and choreography — just kicking butt with guns and everything imaginable. And then we do a training session in the afternoon. It’s like being a stunt person, really, not an actor at all. ”

Zack Cornish has been generating some Oscar buzz with her radiant turn as Fanny Brawne in Jane Campion’s “Bright Star,” which weaves a tale out of the 19th century romance between Brawne and doomed British poet John Keats. Don’t expect any corsets in “Sucker Punch,” though, which sounds like some high-octane mash-up of “Fight Club” and “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest.”

“The film is a dream in a way, ” explains Cornish, which is set in the 1960s. “It operates on three levels. A reality, then a sub-reality where the psych ward world shifts into this strange high-roller’s brothel. Then there’s this dream world where it goes into these crazy action sequences that are totally removed from time and space.”

Cornish added that It’s still Sweatpea in the dream world, but “just all of a sudden she becomes a crazy killing machine and she’s decked out in a really cool outfit.”
