Woody Harrelson Signs Up for 2012
"I don't know why they thought of me," Harrelson chuckled. "But I like the idea."
The film revolves around the ancient Mayan calendar that suggests the world will end on December 21, 2012. Harrelson will portray a prophetic character that no one believes.
"I play a guy who's been talking for a long time, the whole world thinks he's crazy," Harrelson said of his character. "But he's been talking that there's gonna be hell to pay for what's been going on ecologically and everything."
The film, written and directed by Roland Emmerich, also stars John Cusack, Amanda Peet, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Danny Glover, Thandie Newton, Oliver Platt, Thomas McCarthy and Chin Han. Production will begin soon in Vancouver with the film slated for a 2009 release.
2012 was released November 13th, 2009 and stars John Cusack, Amanda Peet, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Thandie Newton, Oliver Platt, Thomas McCarthy, Woody Harrelson, Danny Glover. The film is directed by Roland Emmerich.

Err
gotta love woody harrelson.
its funny when someone tells woody to "act" crazy, because the guy is friggin nuts to begin with.
it would be a stretch for him to act sane.
anyway this cast is looking good.
im down for this, although emerich's movies have been hit or miss in my opinion.

The fact that Roland Emmerich will direct this film doesn't bother me. He's not that bad of a director. The problem here is that he also wrote the script, and he has proven time after time that he is an abysmal screen writer. The best way to describe Emmerich's writing is "extra cheesy with plot holes big enough to run a herd of woolly mammoths through".
