YAY! Some clips of No Country For Old Men!!! Packaged along with some brief interview clips with Joel and Ethan. AWESOME!

The first clip shows Tommy Lee Jones’ Sheriff Bell surveying the scene of a drug deal gone bad. The second, the menacing Chigurh (Javier Bardem) on the phone to Moss (Josh Brolin). The third section shows Moss at home with his girlfriend Carla Jean (Scottish actress Kelly MacDonald) and the final one has Chirurh at his most menacing. I think “what’s the most you ever lost on a coin toss” will become much quoted. Check them out using the links on the right.

Behind the Coens during their bits is the poster for the movie too, I can’t wait for a hi-res version of that to show up!

More casting news for No Country For Old Men. Joining Tommy Lee Jones, Javier Bardem and Josh Brolin in the cast will be Woody Harrelson, Stephen Root and Tim Blake Nelson. Both Rooth and Nelson have worked with the Coen brothers before on O Brother, Where Art Thou? where they played the blind radio station manager and Delman respectively.

Thanks to the following people for emailing me- Barry Watson, Matthew Leach and Stephen Gliteroe.

Some more casting news for what now is surely the Coen’s next, No Country For Old Men. Josh Brolin has, evidently, joined Tommy Lee Jones and Javier Bardem in the cast. From Empire- “Brolin will play the man who kicks the plot into gear – a Vietnam vet who discovers a bundle of cash he finds at the site of a drug deal gone wonky.” I can’t wait for this one!!!

Like buses you wait ages and then two come along at once! News gathers apace on No Country For Old Men, more from Empire Online… We reported yesterday that the Coen Brothers No Country For Old Men was due to go into production in May. Today comes the news that Javier Bardem and Tommy Lee Jones are in talks to lead the cast. The story of a young man who takes a fortune in cash from a dead body he finds near the Rio Grande, only to find himself at risk from drug dealers and hit men. We’re guessing that Bardem and Jones are down to play the bad guy and local sheriff respectively, but we’ll keep you up to date as we learn more. Bardem is predominantly known for his excellent dramatic work in Before Night Falls and The Sea Inside, but he had some comedy roles earlier in his career, so the Coens could really bring out his lighter side. Recently the Coens have been skewing a little too close to mainstream – not that popularity and quality are mutually exclusive but bigger budgets seem to have diluted the creativity they had when they were working with a 48p and as much John Turturro as they could carry. Here’s hoping this sees them back on form.
