The ritual
diversity Al Pacino and Dan Stevens are also reportedly set to star The ritual, a horror film about exorcism from XYZ Films. Directed by David Midell, the supposedly true story is about “two priests – one questioning his faith (Stevens) and one reckoning with a difficult past (Pacino) – who must put aside their differences to pursue an obsessed young woman through a difficult and dangerous series of exorcisms. The film is an authentic portrayal of Emma Schmidt, an American whose demonic possession culminated in harrowing exorcisms. Her case remains the most thoroughly documented exorcism in American history.”
Superman
During a recent interview with ColliderNathan Fillion described his perspective SupermanGuy Gardner is a man who is “90% flawed” but who “doesn’t care.”
The reality is that people are flawed. We all have flaws. We all have vulnerabilities. You could have the most wonderful family, but you always think, ‘Oh my God, my dad is driving me crazy.’ He has this one thing.’ Everyone has something and I love dealing with those flaws and shortcomings. It’s what makes people real and allows the audience to relate, because we all know what that is. We all have our own. We see it in other people. Guy Gardner is wrong 90% of the time and he doesn’t care. That’s one of his mistakes. I think there’s a real freedom in playing this. For someone who loves playing flawed and flawed people, Guy Gardner is a goldmine.
