The giveaway for Steven Soderbergh’s film — Haywire — went fabulous. We have a great winner, Brian L., who says his favorite Soderbergh film is Ocean Eleven.

Haywire boasts a talented cast that includes Channing Tatum, Ewan McGregor, Michael Fassbender, Antonio Banderas, Bill Paxton, Michael Douglas and Michael Angarano. The film also introduces mixed martial arts (MMA) superstar Gina Carano as Mallory Kane, in a demanding lead role that has her performing her own high-adrenaline stunts. From what I have seen of the movie, I think, Carano kicks all these guys butts.

Brian L. won a Haywire T-shirt, rubber bracelet and mini poster.

The movie is now playing in theaters.

The final poster for Haywire has just been released by Relativity Media for the upcoming action-thriller, directed by Oscar winner Steven Soderbergh.
The cast of Haywire is very impressive. Channing Tatum, Ewan McGregor, Michael Fassbender, Antonio Banderas, Bill Paxton, Michael Douglas, Michael Angarano and mixed martial arts superstar Gina Carano star in the film.

From looking at the new trailer, the movie is a dynamic action-thriller with Carano performing her own high-adrenaline stunts. The trailer doesn’t really tell us much about the movie. But what is clear is that Carano kicks some serious butts. Those butts belong to men. Go Girl!

Carano plays Mallory Kane, a highly trained operative who works for a government security contractor in the dirtiest, most dangerous corners of the world. After successfully freeing a Chinese journalist held hostage, she is double crossed and left for dead by someone close to her in her own agency. Now she is the target of skilled assassins who know her every move, Mallory must find the truth in order to stay alive.

Using her black-ops military training, she devises an ingenious—and dangerous—trap. But when things go haywire, Mallory realizes she’ll be killed in the blink of an eye unless she finds a way to turn the tables on her ruthless adversary.

The movie opens January 20, 2011.

Many of you won’t remember this spy show from the late 1960′s, but as a child my Sunday afternoons were blessed with reruns of The Man from U.N.C.L.E, a James-Bond inspired show in which two agents, American Napoleon Solo and Russian Illya Kuryakin, fought the forces of evil (namely the Nazi-inspired THRUSH agency who planned to dominate the world). A movie has been in development for years, if not decades, but this week saw some news that may push the film forward.

Director of Traffic and the Ocean’s 11 films, Steven Soderbergh is apparently in line to direct the project, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Obviously his new film, Haywire, a Bourne-like spy thriller set in Spain, Ireland, and New Mexico, is impressing people with its relatively low-budget approach to making an action flick. Soderbergh will also bring along his writing colleague Scott Burns, who penned The Bourne Ultimatum and Soderbergh’s upcoming apocalypse flick Contagion.

What’s more, a report from Indiewire suggests that George Clooney is interested in playing the lead role of Solo. Clooney, a friend and supporter of Soderbergh, seems like an obvious choice if the schedule will work, and his interest will certainly drive production for the remake forward. The original role was played by Robert Vaughn, who you may remember from The Magnificent Seven, The Towering Inferno, and the original The A-Team.
