Not really much to report other than as follows:

Lost City of Z is now listed as “pre production” on IMDBPro as of 20 December 2014.
The film had a quick mention in HitFix article about the Producers Guild Visionary Award honouring Brad Pitt’s Plan B:

“Currently on the Plan B future slate: Angelina Jolie’s “By the Sea,” the long-gestating “Lost City of Z,” …”

We had posted about Sienna Miller’s involvement back in August, and according to Sienna latest interview with Vogue:

“Miller is also signed on for the upcoming Amazon mystery The Lost City of Z, with Benedict Cumberbatch and Robert Pattinson …”

Childhood of a Leader has been in pre production on IMDbPro since 3 November 2014 as we previously posted.

The short summary that was originally on IMDbPro has now been changed to the Protagonist Pictures summary:

“This chilling fable about the rise of fascism in the 20th Century tells the story of a young American boy living in France in 1918 whose father is working for the US government on the creation of the Treaty of Versailles. What he witnesses helps to mould his beliefs – and we witness the birth of a terrifying ego. Loosely inspired by the early childhood experiences of many of the great dictators of the 20th Century and infused with the same sense of dread as The Others and The Omen, The Childhood of a Leader is an ominous portrait of emerging evil. “

Mona Fastvold has been posting photos from Budapest on her instagram and mentioning location scouting.  Promising.

Both movies still have US release dates of 2015 on IMDBPro.

I’ll update if I come across more info.

And as an aside, Idol’s Eye and Hold on to Me are still listed in “Projects in Development” on IMDbPro but I won’t be surprised if they disappear.
