In Development

Masters of the Universe: Katheryn Winnick (The Dark Tower, "Vikings"), Dolph Lundgren (Kindergarten Cop 2, The Expendables 3) and Virginia Madsen (Joy, Dead Rising: Watchtower) will round out the cast of Masters of the Universe. Katheryn Winnick will play Sorceress, who unveils the power of Grayskull to Prince Adam (Alan Ritchson). Lundgren will play King Randor, ruler of the kingdom of Eternia and father of Prince Adam. Virginia Madsen, meanwhile, will play Queen Marlena, Randor's wife and Adam's mother.

Carbon: Aubrey Plaza (Ingrid Goes West, The Little Hours), Dave Bautista (Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, Spectre) and Sharlto Copley (HArdcore Henry, Free Fire) have signed on to appear in supporting roles in the DJ Caruso-directed Carbon, from writer Clive Steinbeck. Plaza will play a young ambulance-chasing lawyer, Bautista, the head of security of the compound Taron Egerton escapes from, and Copley will play the compound's head doctor.

Batman: Gotham Knight: It has been recently announced that Caleb Landry Jones (Get Out, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri) has been cast as The Joker in the new Jake Gyllenhaal-led Batman film from director Joseph Kosinski (Metal Gear Solid, Only the Brave) and writer APJ. Now Michael Pitt ("Boardwalk Empire", Ghost in the Shell), who was also considered for The Joker, has also joined the film in a villainous capacity as Roman Sionis, better known as Black Mask.

Last Rites: Italian filmmaker Paolo Sorrentino (Youth, This Must Be The Place) has been hired to direct a drama about an aging action star, Last Rites. Michael Madsen (The Hateful Eight, Hell Ride) has been cast in the lead role, marking a rare leading role for the actor. Lon Charles wrote the original screenplay for the film.

Raptor Red: Brad Bird (The Incredibles 2, Tomorrowland) has been hired to direct what could possibly be Last Resort Films' riskiest film to-date: a silent, photo-realistic CG-animated film about a group of Utahraptors. Clive Steinbeck wrote the script for the unconventional project based on the novel by paleontologist Robert T. Bakker.

Star Trek: Enterprise: Many have been eager to learn more about the previously announced Star Trek film Last Resort Films has been set to produce. Now we know that the film will depict the initial voyage of the Starship Enterprise, captained by Capt. Jonathan Archer, who will be played by Jason Clarke (Nation's Pride, The Osterman Weekend). The film takes inspiration from the Scott Bakula-led TV series "Star Trek: Enterprise" which was set during the early stages of Earth's deep space exploring following "First Contact" with the Vulcans. Lily James (Darkest Hour, Baby Driver), Josh Pence (La La Land, Siren) and Hugh Laurie ("The Night Manager", "Chance") have also all been hired for prominent roles. James will play T'Pol, a Vulcan assigned to chaperone the Enterprise's first mission. Pence will play Commander Charles Tucker, while Hugh Laurie will portray Starfleet Admiral Forrest.
