Rian Johnson's LOOPER gets a Cast.
Todays update involves the casting of Bruce Willis (hopefully it will be the Pulp Fiction, Fast Food Nation, 12 Monkeys Willis and not the Cop Out, Fifth Element, Mercury Rising Willis) and confirms Joseph Gordon-Levitt (who proved a winning combination with Johnson's sensibility in chic-noir Brick). Either way, according to /Film they are playing the same character at two different ages.
Looper is a time travel movie, set in a near future where time travel doesn't exist but will be invented in a few decades. It's pretty dark in tone, much different from Bloom, and involves a group of killers (called Loopers) who work for a crime syndicate in the future. Their bosses send their targets hogtied and blindfolded back in time to the Loopers, and their job is to simply shoot them in the head and dispose of the body. So the target vanishes from the future and the Loopers dispose of a corpse that doesn't technically exist, a very clean system. Complications set in from there.
