CB:
Lorenzo di Bonaventura is one of the few producers who participates in press junkets, and lucky for us-- the guy is behind any number of giant hits from the last few years, from Transformers to Salt to G.I. Joe, and of course all of these movies and more are eyeing sequels. At yesterday's junket for RED I had an excellent 30-minute conversation with di Bonaventura about all kinds of things, from the challenges of bringing together a cast as large as RED's to the future of comic book movies to how to make killer action sequences on a tiny budget. It was a great conversation, all on video, and I'll be posting it soon, but in the meantime here's two tiny updates on projects he has in the works.
