Jean Reno in anything is good news.
And you're sure this isn't just some fanboy thing? 'Cause I've fought more than a couple pimply, overweight vamps that called themselves Lestat.

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Jean Reno is playing Fantômas in the upcoming movie adaptation of the titular French pulp hero/villain
And my first thought was "Why is Bill Clinton's legal person in a movie? Did she go into acting?"

Which would be the same first thought that msbelle, le nubian and I had!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oddly, I read msbelle's post and thought..."yeah, Jean Reno. What's the deal?" Janet is so not on my radar.

Oooh, the prospect of a new Fantômas movie is exciting!
They said it’s going to be in 3D
...And now, somehow, it's not exciting at all. That's the magic of 3D!

You could just not see it in 3D.

No, it's what that says about priorities. We don't have a script, but we know it will be in 3D!

Well, it's not like it being in 3D has anything to do with the plot or the lines. I don't see why they'd be causally related.

Aha! I had no idea Fantomas was a real character. The villain in the play I was in was called Fantomas. She was an evil French balloon.

Man, are you a French silent film serial ignoramus!
Next you're going to tell me you don't know anything about Judex and Irma Vep.
