Michael Mann and the studios have embraced the latest trend of releasing B-Roll footage, which gives us an inside look into Blackhat’s ungraded image of the scenes.
A day before general release, and the studio embargo for posting media reviews has been lifted, and with it the lid on opinion. It’s the big moment when we get a glimpse of how good this film is and how well it will do at the box office. As Mann fans, we are desperate for […]
A collection of interviews with the cast of Michael Mann’s Blackhat, taken from the red carpet of Blackhat’s glitzy premier.
From the red carpet of Michael Mann’s Blackhat Premier.
Enjoy these excellent interviews with the main stars of Blackhat, as well as with a rather shattered looking Michael Mann. Who can blame him?

It is essentially a shortened version of the existing official trailer, but with some new images added to help the shorter version make sense. It seems unlikely now that we will get […]
The new Blackhat poster was revealed on Wire and it looks great… the imagery sums up the visual cohesiveness that many miss in Mann’s films. But I do worry that this poster isn’t up to standard in terms of evoking a commercial response! Some shootouts artwork would do the trick – not Mann’s priority, but hey, […]
Several actors on IMDB’s cast listing under Michael Mann’s Blackhat don’t have a character name assigned to them. One is Yorick Van Wageningen, a dutch actor known for his roles in The Girl with the Dragon Tatoo, The Chronicles of Riddick and The New World. He has a brooding character that is effectively manipulated into malice – perfect for his role as the […]
