How That Rough ‘sleepless’ Fight Scene Played Out For Jamie Foxx And Michelle Monaghan

... the casino as he’s trying to placate, or just plain play, Rubino. Toss in some other dirty cops and Rob Novak (Scoot Mc Nairy), the ruthless scion of a local crime family, and things get increasingly complicated. “I liked the idea that this woman wasn’t attached to anyone but herself,” Monaghan says of Bryant. “She didn’t have a family, wasn’t involved with a guy and was devoted to a job that she clearly loved and was passionate for. She got herself into a bad bust and now she’s catching a lot of flack from a very male-centric environment and she’s looking to get revenge. Ultimately, she probably does it in a very presumptuous way. She’s doing things that maybe are a little illegal and morally ambiguous here and there, but I think that’s the general sense of the characters. It makes the characters relatable and you sense their frustration.”. When Downs tries to convince the highly suspicious Bryant that he’s actually under deep cover and also trying to flush out police corruption, she isn’t buying it. Considering how we’ve seen him act up until ...

Jamie Foxx And Michelle Monaghan Share Some Sharp Words

... infiltrate some of his fellow police officers who have turned corrupt. But when he starts getting too close, one of the crime bosses he’s trying to bust kidnaps his son. Jamie Foxx doesn’t like that at all. You can see how all that plays out in the first Sleepless trailer that debuted last fall, but now a clip from the movie has debuted, showing us the tense, cheeky relationship that Jamie Foxx has with Michelle Monaghan, who works in internal affairs and has no idea that Foxx is just pretending to be a corrupt cop as part of his job, and isn’t actually as bad as some of his colleagues. Watch the Sleepless clip below. The banter here isn’t quite as clever as it could be, but the tension between Foxx and Monaghan is palpable. I’m curious as to what the situation Foxx is referring to when he points out the scratch on Monaghan’s face. Anyway, clearly these two have crossed paths before, but surely they’ll end up helping each other out in the end. Sleepless is being framed similar to Taken, with Foxx doing everything in his power to get his son back from some sketchy people. But they’ve taken out much of the intrigue by revealing that Foxx is an undercover cop who is only ...

Jamie Foxx In ‘sleepless

... that's all sizzle and no steak. In “ Sleepless ,” a stylishly hollow crime thriller set in Las Vegas, Jamie Foxx plays an undercover cop named Vincent Downs who is up to his goatee in Big Problems. He and his partner (played by the rapper T. I.) just killed two crooks they shouldn’t have, and they also ripped off a more dangerous drug dealer than the one they thought they were working. Vincent is now carrying 25 kilos of cocaine (street value: $7 million) that could get him killed. To secure and retrieve the drugs, Stanley Rubino (Dermot Mulroney), a natty weasel of a casino owner, has kidnapped Vincent’s 16-year-old son, Thomas (Octavius J. Johnson). But since Vincent is supposed to be delivering the kid to a high-school football game, he has to keep lying to his ex-wife (Gabrielle Union) about the son’s whereabouts ...

... whom he blames for the death of their shared lady love, Irish immigrant flapper Emma (Sienna Miller). That vengeful fire is what drives him to seek more and more power in Tampa, partnering with a pair of Cuban siblings, one of whom he falls in love with (Zoe Saldana), driving out the Klan, and attempting to secure a hold on the gambling industry while wrestling with a cultural tide of religious conservatism. As a screenwriter, Affleck takes his source material from Dennis Lehane's 2012 crime novel, and in the adaptation, it seems he's bitten off more than he can chew. Instead of narrowing the focus, Affleck's tries to stuff more and more in — more plot twists, more characters, more shoot-outs. There are fascinating elements of the story, including the racial tension and a tangle with a hypocritical KKK, but the film doesn't sink deeply into one issue, merely skipping along the surface. And what a surface — the production and costume design and cinematography by Robert Richardson are impeccable; sumptuous and simply gorgeous to look at. But the hurried pace, multitude of characters and muddled plot developments makes sure that the film is all ...

During our interview alongside her “Sleepless” co-star Jamie Foxx, Monaghan’s reminiscences led the Oscar winner to recall his own Chicago experiences early in his career. “312, at 8 th and Wabash,” said Foxx, making note of a comedy club — an outpost of Michael Williams’ Los Angeles Comedy Act Theater — where he once did stand-up. “The comedy scene in Chicago was incredible. Michael Williams did a comedy scene in Chicago where all the black comedians would perform in the early ’90 s. There was a lot of great comedy that went through there. There were great comics like [the late] Bernie Mac that I got to watch and meet and hang out with.”. It’s a big weekend for Monaghan, who has two films hitting theaters in wide release across the country. Along with “Sleepless,” Monaghan also co-stars in “Patriots Day,” playing the wife of a police sergeant (Mark Wahlberg) investigating the Boston Marathon bombing. “Our main goal,” she ...
