Sunshine (on a rainy day)

Sunshine is the working title of the new Danny Boyle film which has just begun shooting. I've added a link to Gia Milinovich's official blog which is following the making of the film.

This is what the website has to say about the film:

"The Sun is dying, and mankind is dying with it. Our last hope: a spaceship and a crew of eight men and women. They carry a device which will breathe new life into the star. But deep into their voyage, out of radio contact with Earth, their mission is starting to unravel. Soon the crew are fighting not only for their lives, but their sanity."

(Shhhhhh! No-one mention Event Horizon...)

The film once again pairs director Danny Boyle with writer Alex Garland and producer Andrew Macdonald, who previously teamed up for the thinking person’s zombie film, 28 Days Later. The cast is led by Rose Byrne, Cliff Curtis, Chris Evans, Troy Garity, Cillian Murphy, Hiroyuki Sanada, Benedict Wong and Michelle Yeoh.

In other blog news, I've recently added a link to comedian Richard Herring's Warming Up blog after seeing his stand up show last week. I'm also fully aware that a number of my other links are now out of date, so will be removing them shortly if no new updates appear in the next few days. And finally, my sincere condolences go out to Animal Family who lost Maneki Neko last week after a sudden illness. RIP Maneki.
