Joseph Gordon-Levitt Bags Yet Another Role

Joseph Gordon-Levitt
After widely spread news of Gordon-Levitt's confirmed involvement in The Dark Knight Rises, MSN Movies has now revealed the star has bagged yet another role, this time in the Asia-set sci-fi thriller Looper. Whilst promoting the film in Asia, the actor said "I feel now, doing Looper, is the result of what happened with Inception. It is something I have been working for my whole life.". It certainly sounds like the star has found a role that he feels will be the making of his career coming off the back of the success of Inception.

Looper will be directed by Rian Johnson and will also star Bruce Willis and Emily Blunt. So far there is little information about the film but IMDb has revealed a small piece of information about the plot: "A killer who works for the mob of the future recognizes one of his targets as his future self". It sounds mysterious and should make waves if it lives up to Levitt's estimations. Chinese actress Xu Qing will also feature and has said in interview that "It is like nothing I have seen before. It has action. It has romance. It also deals with philosophy. I really like it.". This looks like one to watch out for.

Oooh, I'm excited to see that RIAN JOHNSON will be directing this. He's brilliant, and if you haven't seen BRICK I highly recommend it!!

Do you know you're the second person to recommend Brick in as many days. That goes on the Lovefilm. Cheers
