Remember this day, as one of the days of "Fassbender Fever".
We got two MORE clips from the film, with both Mia and Michael, just in time to tantalize you during Valentines' day.
Another video, which can't be embedded, is from Ivilliage.com.

"Jane Eyre" Stills Featuring Mia, Michael, Jamie, Judi and More...
Stills from Cary Fukunaga's film, "Jane Eyre" are all over the internet. What a great set of pictures to keep the fans quite satisfied until next month's release:
Being that the film will be a limited release (DARN!), it will be released in NYC and L.A. first, and then spread out to the rest of the country. We hope it finds a place near you, because this is a film you shouldn't miss.
In more Jane news, a new version of the novel will be released right before the film is released. The new novel will include production notes from the film, with the cover promoting the new film. We are completely excited about this, because we hope that just as we read this book in school, that this version will make it into the schools one day. We will definitely add this to our collection.
Order your copy of the novel and the soundtrack to be released on March 8, 2011 from MFO's Amazon Store.

Michael IS Rochester
It didn't take long for the studios to put out a trailer for "Jane Eyre". In fact, it was the very next day after the poster was revealed on Monday.
Here's the video:
We've been holding our breath with this film, because so many naysayers weren't sure about Michael's ability to portray such a brooding, mad character. If you've read our earlier posts about Michael's talent, you know that we've been trying to make people understand that he's done this before. We knew he'd 'hit it out of the park' as we say in the states.
And he does.
People all over the place have been sharing their thoughts about how great Michael looks and performs in just this little snippet of film.
We're very happy fans.
We knew he could do it. There was no doubt in our minds.
Many film enthusiasts, who have been following Michael's career recently, chimed in their excitement. Most Jane Eyre book purist also expressed their anxiousness in seeing this 'gothic' tale.
We are relieved.
Now, we just have to wait for the film to hit theaters.
While we wait for pre-movie interviews, press junkets, premieres, etc, you can take a look at some of the sites that have posted screen capsfrom this little trailer.

"Jane Eyre" Poster Brings Mia and Michael into View
Last week, the Official Jane Eyre Facebook page announced that a new 'film asset' would be revealed this Monday. As fans of Michael's work, we all wondered what a 'film asset' was.
Then a tweet came through from the distributor:
@FocusFeatures #JaneEyre fans. LIKE our Facebook page & be the 1st to see a brand new image from the film this Monday. Join now 4 access http://is.gd/gKPVu
We went around thinking, maybe a poster?
When we got online, we saw various news sites post about the new item:
a poster...with a little peek at Michael's look as Rochester.
(we're two for two now, wishing for something and having it come true-see previous post for Fable III...hmmm).
We think that Michael's character is going to be somewhat of a secret surprise until studios or promotions put out stills.
It's a very simplistic poster, which we like. It's very mysterious like the story itself. We like that it does somewhat feature Michael's profile. We don't think there would be happy fans if Michael was left out from the first poster. It's also protrays a beautiful profile of Mia as Jane.
The film comes out March 11, 2011, but don't worry. In a few months, or sooner, we'll start hearing about promotions, maybe interviews or something like the press junket/'premiere' for "Fish Tank" in NYC. We hope it gets more of a promotion because Mia is better known by film enthusiasts.
Other things to note in the Michael world:
"Centurion" and "Jonah Hex" have been released in the states on dvd/blu-ray. "Fable III" has been released in the states, UK and Japan. "Jonah Hex" will available in the UK on dvd/blu-ray on December 27. Order all these and more through MFO's Amazon store (region 1 items) and Amazon Shoppe (region 2 items).
Visit MFO's site and forum for more information and goodies for Michael's fans.

Ready to Film
It's quite exciting to start a new project, whatever you do.
For those of us who enjoy movies, the whole notion of looking forward to a project to be filmed/made/put together is lip lickingly delicious.
Earlier, we mentioned that Michael Fassbender starts filming "Jane Eyre" next week. He was recently interviewed about how he feels about this new project:
In 'celebration' of this new project, we're going to be rereading "Jane Eyre". Normally, we don't like to read the book before a movie comes out, because the book is always better than the movie, albeit a few have lived up to par. There's always creative license taken with films that don't always live up to the book.
We read Jane back in middle school or high school and don't remember the story well enough to remember what happened. So, we're going to reacquaint ourselves with Jane, Rochester and the rest of the characters.
While we're at the bookstore, we'll be looking for the Empire magazine from which the above interview has been published. Plus we'll be looking for the March 2010 Italian Vogue magazine that has published a few nice photos of Michael and British actress Harriet Walter.

"I was close to doing Wuthering Heights a couple of years ago, And you don't get Heathcliff, Rochester has got to be second on the list.Source
"It's a great role, there are so many layers to him. He's been hurt, and there's cruelty to him which I look for ward to exploring.
"And Mia is such a great talent; she's going to be a big star."

Up His Sleeve
This year has been very busy, reporting all the news concerning Michael Fassbender's work. We knew this would happen in the future...and the future is now.
The last week of March, Michael will be working on Jane Eyre with Mia Wasikowska, director Cary Fukunaga, and a list of other great actors.
Director Fukunaga has been interviewed about his version of Jane Eyre. He gives insight to what he sees in the story.
After Jane Eyre, Michael will be jetting off to film with director David Cronenberg. It was reported that co-star Christoph Waltz had to leave this project, playing Freud to Michael's Jung. Christoph's filming schedule conflicted with a project he recently signed on to play. Taking Christoph's place will be Viggo Mortensen.
It would have been the bee's knees to have Michael and Christoph working side by side, feuding on screen. But alas, it's not to be. Viggo is an excellent replacement. The project will start filming after the middle of May for about 10 weeks, according to various sources.
Unbeknownst to most, the project was almost scrapped because of Christoph's conflicting schedule, despite Michael and Keira Knightly on board; that would have been a tragedy. Hence, we thank Viggo for stepping in and leaving his partial retirement. A few pictures of Viggo that have surfaced show that he could be easily transformed as Freud.
But before all that work, Michael will be having some fun as the Grand Marshall of the St. Patrick's Parade in his home town of Killarney, per Kerry's Eye Online. They are sure proud of their boy!

“The Orson Welles-Joan Fontaine version was of an era. You wouldn’t make a film like that anymore. I’m a stickler for raw authenticity, so I’ve spent a lot of time rereading the book and trying to feel out what Charlotte Brontë was feeling when she was writing it. That sort of spookiness that plagues the entire story…there’s been something like 24 adaptations, and it’s very rare that you see those sorts of darker sides. They treat it like it’s just a period romance, and I think it’s much more than that.”Source
