Alice has a new project on the way. It called “Kill Me Three Times” and will be directed by Wolf Creek’s Greg McLean. Alice is the lead, and the movie will also star Abbie Cornish (Limitless), Ben Mendelsohn (Killing Them Softly) and Sullivan Stapleton (Animal Kingdom). Shooting is set to begin near the end of the year in Australia.

The film “takes place in Eagle’s Nest, an Australian surfing town where a young woman is the thread that binds three tales of murder, blackmail and revenge.”

The movie will be up for sales at Cannes.

Check this teaser trailer that has been released:

This is part of “City of God: Ten Years Later”, a presentation to revisit Fernando Meirelles’ “City of God” ten years after its release, in 2002.
On this video Alice talks on how important for her career was the “kiss on the beach” scene. That frame has turned the official movie poster, and because of that, her face was everywhere.

Finally the poster of Terry a.k.a. Bea Franco has been released. Check it:

The film’s official Facebook page has debuted the first trailer for On The Road, directed by Walter Salles, and starring Sam Riley as Sal Paradise, Garrett Hedlund as Dean Moriarty and also Kristen Stewart with supporting roles for Kirsten Dunst, Viggo Mortensen, Amy Adams, Alice Braga, Steve Buscemi, Terrence Howard, Elizabeth Moss and Tom Sturridge.

After more than thirty years in development, a big screen adaptation of Jack Kerouac’s iconic “On the Road” is finally headed to theaters this year. British up and comer Sam Riley plays Sal Paradise, Jack Kerouac’s semi-autobiographical portrait of a Beat Generation writer who goes on a journey of booze, drugs and self-discovery with his best friend, Dean Moriarty, played by Garrett Hedlund and based on real life Beat icon Neal Cassady. Kristen Stewart joins them for part of the journey as Dean’s wife Marylou, and others including Viggo Mortensen, Amy Adams, Kirsten Dunst, Tom Sturridge and more meander in and out of the path of the two friends.

The Walter Salles directed film has been receiving very positive early buzz and is expected to bow at the Cannes Film Festival this May, with a France release date to match, while we’re betting a date that’s a little more Oscar-friendly is being eyed for its US release. See the poster in larger size in our gallery and follow the movie’s official Facebook and Twitter.

Producer Charle Gillibert has announced the following, via Twitter: “Am happy to share with you : OTR french release the 23rd of may, more to come.”

OTR? That’s On the Road, directed by Walter Salles, and starring Kristen Stewart, Sam Riley, and Garrett Hedlund. As for the May 23 released date in France, does that mean On the Road will be screened at the Cannes Film Festival? Possibly. Cannes 2012 runs from May 16-27.
