Cumberbatch and Fiennes to Star in Gary Oldman’s Flying Horse
Benedict Cumberbatch and Ralph Fiennes are in line to star in Gary Oldman’s Flying Horse. The biopic, which will be Oldman’s second directorial effort, tells the story of British photographer Eadweard Muybridge, who played a significant role in developing the technology behind motion pictures.
Fiennes would play Muybridge, with Cumberbatch set to take the role of Harry Larkyns, a theatre critic who fathered a child with Muybridge’s wife and was ultimately murdered by Muybridge.
Oldman has written the script, and is also likely to play a small role as Muybridge’s attorney.

Joss Whedon: ‘There’s no Loki in The Avengers 2’
Loki will not feature in The Avengers 2, Joss Whedon has said.
The writer-director has revealed that Tom Hiddleston will not reprise his villainous role in the Marvel Studios sequel.
“Everyone is going to be looking for the Loki-Hulk smash moment and you’ll be looking for ‘quim’,” Whedon told Empire in its latest podcast.
“First of all, imitating what I did before is the surest way to do it not as well. Second of all, Loki’s not there to say those terrible things. Although I do think we should bring the word back, not as an insult, it’s just a nice word.”
