I think there's a machete thread around here, but Im too lazy to hunt it down and the search function didnt find one .....

casting

Variety said:

According to Variety, Robert Rodriguez has announced much of the cast for Machete, and it is one hell of a cast. Joining Danny Trejo will be Robert De Niro, Michelle Rodriguez, and Jessica Alba. Also, Cheech Marin and Jeff Fahey, who were in the Grindhouse trailer will be back for the big screen version. Rumors of Lindsay Lohan joining the cat are also true. Finally, Don Johnson and Steven Seagal have been confirmed for the project. There was no confirmation on Jonah Hill, who had recently been offered a part.

Awesome! I heard they were making this and I have to say I'm excited. Was one of my favorite trailers from Grindhouse. Sounds like its going to have an awesome cast at that!

Rumors of Lindsay Lohan joining the cat are also true.

What kind of cat is Lindsay Lohan joining? Siamese?

actually I think her cat is some DJ chick that keeps kickin her to the curb .....

So this is actually gonna happen huh? That's pretty cool!

BAD ASS!!!!!

I wonder when Eli Roth is gonna start working on Thanksgiving.

And only Hot Toys can capture the savage landscape that is Danny Trejos face. MAKE IT SO!

I cant wait to see this film

Really looking forward to this... easily the best trailer, and probably best overall part of Grindhouse

Can't wait!!! !

That poster is rad. I want one.

Poster of Jessica Alba in Machete just released

If she doesn't have any speaking parts this movie will still be awesome. If she trys to act it's an automatic 7 point deduction out of 10.

Can't embed this one, but...

Hell's yeah!!!

Looks great!

"With a special Cino de Mayo message...to Arizona!

Looks good - but I don't know about Lohan and Alba. "We didn't cross the border...the border crossed us!" Alba should be relegated to eye candy only - when she speaks - it just ruins the moment.

Michelle Rodriguez on the other hand - is the only female in that film that is kick ass believable.

Wow, this and "Hobo With a Shotgun"!

Any other Grindhouse trailers being made in to films?

Embedded!!! !

They are there as eye candy I'm sure!
I mean... seems like pure Mex-ploitiation with a bit of Nuns-ploitation = WIN

Not sure... I think the Thanksgiving one was mentioned as a possibility, Werewolf Women of the SS would be more interesting IMO...

So awesome......
