m.c. gainey is roscoe, please take the time to see on other posts about it. brian or someone should post a F.A.Q. about the movie. the site you posted probably has no right to post those wallpapers since they were stolen from the official site dukesofhazzard.warnerbros.com

What you see on TVGC is the wrong info, they still believe that nick cage is playing superman. the official date i heard first hand is june 24, no later than july 4th

umm..sorry but you read too much into that, he DID NOT compare bo to stifler, he said stifler was a different character than he bo is and neither are the same.

check it out Interview with Johnny Knoxville Sean William Scott Interview

just a side note here, i attached a photo from the below mentioned go car (read about it ) i grabbed the pic from another site. As many of you know, I'm sure, THE DUKES OF HAZZARD was originally a TV show that ran from 1979 to 1985 (read JoBlo's review of its first season on DVD here). It followed the adventures of brothers' Bo and Luke Duke (played by John Schneider and Tom Wopat respectively) and their smoking hot cousin Daisy Duke (played by Catherine Bach) as they constantly feuded with the white pimp suit clad Boss Hogg and sheriff Roscoe P. Coltrane (played by Sorrell Booke and James Best respectively). In this current update, the trio is transported to present day but rest assured, the bad ass Dodge Charger known as The General Lee, Daisy's shorts (which, if you're like me you've been drooling over since the first pics appeared online), Boss Hogg and his pimped out white Cadillac are all present and accounted for. In this update, Seann William Scott plays Bo Duke, Johnny Knoxville plays Luke Duke, Willie Nelson plays Uncle Jesse Duke, Burt Reynolds plays Boss Hogg, M.C. Gainey plays Sheriff Roscoe P. Coltrane, David Koechner plays Cooter, Lynda Carter plays Pauline and (as if I needed to tell you) Jessica Simpson plays the scrumptious Daisy Duke. Jay Chandrasekhar (from the Broken Lizard troupe) directs from a script him and the Broken Lizard guys wrote. When I arrived in Baton Rouge , Louisiana , I presumed the first night was going to be an uneventful dinner with the rest of the online press in attendanc e. Imagine my and the rest of the gang's surprise when producer Bill Gerber and the one and only Burt Reynolds were also dining at the same restaurant we were. We actually spoke to Gerber that night and the day after so I've just collated some of the more interesting points he mentioned from both talks in the points below: * As far as casting is concerned, Jessica Simpson nailed the role from the audition. There was no doubt that she was the perfect choice for the role. He felt that she pulled off brilliantly the same aura of being a really good girl yet being very sensual the same way Catherine Bach did. Further, Seann William Scott was initially very excited about the project. He was very proactive about the project from the beginning. He and the rest of the actors gave good input about their characters. Finally, the choice for Jay Chandrasekhar for director was because Warner Bros' had been wanting to work with Jay for a long time, they were looking for a director who had a little bit more of an edge, and who would make a movie that wasn't campy or a spoof but rather the anti Starsky and Hutch and at the same time would be an homage to BLUES BROTHERS, SMOKEY AND THE BANDIT and CANNONBALL RUN. * Of Daisy’s shorts, he mentioned that they kept getting shorter and shorter to the point where they had to cut the pockets off. Hell yeah!! * As far as the stunts, he mentioned that this is the first time the Go Mobile (which I talk about later) is used in a movie. * A few other tidbits he mentioned are that the soundtrack would be a southern rock in the vein of the Allman Brothers, Leonard Skynard and ZZ Top, we can expect to see a trailer Spring Break and everybody would be willing to come back for a sequel if people wanted it. Finally, he mentioned a couple of his upcoming projects which include a movie called MAJOR MOVIE STAR with Jessica Simpson and VOID MOON with Angelina Jolie and Robert DeNiro. Burt Reynolds is about as cool as it gets. Before he left for the night, he stopped by our table and showed us first hand why he's the man. He cracked jokes, told us great stories, talked football and even talked a little bit about how somewhat awkward it was being in a remake of a movie he made 30 years ago with THE LONGEST YARD. As if that wasn't enough, he even dropped a few nuggets about his upcoming projects. He mentioned that a SHARKY'S MACHINE remake is in the works and his choice for the title role would be George Clooney. Despite him being a fan of Sean Penn (in his words, "Goddamn, he can act!") he believed Clooney had the appropriate blend of charisma and acting chops to portray the titular Sharky. Finally, he mentioned that he'd be open to doing a SMOKEY AND THE BANDIT remake. The following day we mounted a van bright and early and were taken to a location about an hour outside Baton Rouge where the cast and crew were currently filming. The location was a Boy Scout camp (that’s right, Boy Scout) and the scene we'd be seeing was taking place relatively deep in the forest. We were told it was part of a "Road Rally" muscle car race that Bo and The General Lee enter which starts out on the road and deviates into the forest when quite a few cops (about 15) become involved. The scene is one of four or five action set pieces with the one we'd be watching coming at the film's climax. The second unit team had already been there and now director Jay Chandrasekhar and crew were there to match footage. As we made our way through the location, we caught a glimpse of several muscle cars being used in the Road Rally race. We also snagged a first glimpse of Boss Hogg's white Caddy (with some bad ass looking gun shaped door handles) and a few General Lee's - one was in half, a couple were wrecked and one was pristine and looking soh-weeeeeet! We even snapped a picture in one. Boo yah!! The first stop we made was at a stunt car rig called the "Go Mobile". Here's an official description of what the Go Mobile actually is: "A high-speed, low center of gravity, chassis replacement stunt driving camera platform fabricated by Go Stunts, Inc. The Go Mobile’s modular bay can accommodate everything from cars and trucks to airplanes and even horse buggies; the bay’s height, width and length are fully adjustable, providing a match in height to the actual vehicle(s) in motion—a distinct advantage over the older method of executing tracking shots or talent in a car chase scenario, where low speeds and the raised perspective provided by the process trailer created problems when cutting in high speed, actual stunt vehicle footage. The self-propelled Go Mobile is piloted by a stunt driver from a moveable cockpit, allowing a myriad of camera placement around the car/truck, filming the “driver†(actor) from countless angles. The footage shot captures the very realistic forces exerted on the actor inside a vehicle traveling at high speeds while executing quick turns, fast accelerations and sudden stops." It's essentially one relatively big car with the back half of a car and a rig for a camera, its operator and a stunt driver mounted on a single chassis. The camera projects in such a way that it allows a direct view of the actors inside the car and any action happening behind the car. Since the Go Mobile is one unit, it’s able to achieve speeds up to 70 or 80 mph like a regular car. As a result, the audience can feel the full force of the chase. Further, not only is the Go Mobile safer but it has the added advantage of being able to slam cars directly onto the side of it. The end result is a more visceral and gritty experience. The chase sequences may be familiar to some as long-time second unit director Dan Bradley, who worked on THE BOURNE SUPREMACY and SPIDER-MAN 2 as second unit director and who employs the Go Mobile rig, is the second unit director on DUKE's. After the Go Mobile, we were taken to the actual location in the forest where the scene was being shot. There were three cars lined up one behind the other with the General Lee in front and a police barricade about 10 feet away. The General Lee being used was another stunt car rig known as an RDV (stands for Remote Drive Vehicle). Similar to the Go Mobile, the RDV is one unit, only this time the rig is attached to the roof of the car. The stunt man drives the car from the enclosed rig on the roof with the actor inside the car. The camera can be inserted in the passenger seat or in the back seat depending on the angle the director wants for the sequence. The RDV can also go up to 70 or 80 mph and can maneuver like a regular car, taking curves at high speeds and zig zagging between cars. As we observed the RDV being prepared, Jay (Chandrasekhar) showed up and talked to us (his interview soon to come). While we were talking with Jay, Seann William Scott showed up in his Bo Luke garb and jumped into the RDV. Soon after, the stunt man strapped himself into the rig on the roof and someone called for everybody to clear away. As soon as action was yelled, the three cars propelled forward with the RDV and another car taking the first sharp right curve and the last car passing through the police barricade. After they repeated the scene and the crew was getting things ready to leave, Jay actually showed us some second unit footage from the onset of the race on a paved road. We saw about three short clips, each with the General Lee being chased by several cop cars. The sequence was definitely reminiscent of THE BOURNE SUPREMACY only not as turbulent. It was a fast paced, visceral, in-your-face sequence which definitely got me psyched about how cool the end result would be. After watching the chase sequence, we got a chance to sit down with producer Bill Gerber and Seann William Scott. After that, we were taken to two more locations, each about 40 minutes away. The first location was Cooter's garage. We were informed that none of it was built. They just turned an existing garage into "Cooter's Rebel Repair". The garage office had a musky, dirty look with a retro vibe. The back of the garage had cars at different stages of repair, all of which were part of the existing complex. Behind the entire complex was a car junkyard where we were told part of a scene would take place. After Cooter's garage, we took a drive to the location of the Duke family farm. If I'm not mistaken, the farm is 500 acres. We were told that it was all part of an actual farm. They didn't have to build anything. The rustic appearance of the farm, it's barn and houses, the interspersed large trees were all existing structures. As a fitting end to the tour of the farm, which was in the same vicinity as the Duke farm, we drove past Lynda Carter's character's house, who in the film plays Pauline. We were then taken back to the production offices where we got a chance to talk with Jessica Simpson, and Johnny Knoxville. All in all, it was a great experience. Thanks to Warner Bros' for being cool enough to allow us on set, John Pasani, the unit publicist on DUKE's, and Darren Olcsvary, Warner Bros' Interactive Marketing Manager for taking the time to show us around and to Jessica Simpson for being so damn hot. Goddamn!!

i see the forum nazi got offended by my poast exposing the dukes for being *gasp* imaginary people. i must have buurst brians bubble for him to learn daisy duke is not real, poor thing must be devistated.

Lost Sheep, this movie is not a parody of the show, because the writers and directors are revamping the franchise and putting it into todays world. ideas, morales and ethics if the show would have been fine for a movie 25 years ago but wake the hell up, this is 2005. i swear to god you people dwell in a fantasy world.

what the hell is this nonsense about the original uncle jesse, you speak like he was a real person, he wasn't he was just a name on a piece of paper. it's just a movie, i'm sorry you are offended by pot smoking, i smoke, willie smokes, everyone smokes, it's common place now, sure it's illegal but that is the whole point, same with moonshine, shiner ran because they stuff was and still is illegal. bootleggers still are in operation today, i know first hand because in my spare time i work for an agency that hunts down and flushes out moonshiners, sort of like a bounty hunter, i track down and chase moonshiners. there really is no concrete proof about the effects of pot smoking, in fact it's widely known effects are for medicinal reasons, i smoke, like others, for recreational reasons.

brian, give it a rest, you are pathetic, you want some cheese to go with your whine? god if that offends, may god have mercy on your soul if you turn on tv.

as soon as i clean uo myself from drooling at the new star wars movie i will be in line for the dukes. it sickens me how many goody 2 shoes ther are that are offended by the simpliest things. willie smoking pot as not as bad as running moonshine. 80% of people today now more about pot than they do about moonshine.

i notice the promo pic for ghostrider you have, with nick cage in the lead on that movie, i can already smell that turd coming.

Head over to www.aintitcool.com where you can read an article about the sneak preview someone saw of the trailer along with a few screen caps posted up. according to the article, the movie is due out in June, which means an official trailer should be out in the next few weeks.

what do you think?

That's because Flash looks to be cast correctly. As for Rosco, it looks like they screwed that one up too. But Rosco is less of an icon of the show. That being said, he is part of it and we should also add that they screwed that up toby finding a guy who wants to reinterpret the role. But it's a smaller issue that the other huge screw ups, that's why it's complained about less. It's like finding a fly in your worm soup. well i know for a fact that Jessica will be a brunette in the movie, could be she starts out bruntte and end up blonde by the end, who knows. it's not like she's gonna be having a 3 way around the world with bo and luke and leave a cleveland steamer on enos

funny thing is, everyone on here b****es about either jessica simpson being blond or no flag on the general, but not one word about roscoe and flash.

for the millionth time, this is not a bad casting decision, this is perfect. this is what the creator wanted all along but was not able to do in the 70's/80's You trying to make things worse? You don't fix a bad casting decision by making the actor/actress appear even more fake than they already are. Leave well enough alone. Natural blonde is better than fake brunette (she has obviously enhanced her blonde status but she is still basically a natural blonde). Of course, the source of the problem lies in the bad casting decision in the first place. Would you cast James Earl Jones to play Rocky Balboa and then tell him to start working out and apply a lot of white makeup to his skin? (blatant exaggeration in analogy for effect only).

i want to know, what would you think if what i have previously said about Jessica Simpson confirmed to be a brunette for this movie?

yeah and i want the old showbiz pizza restaraunt with the rock a fire explosion to come back and replace all this crappy chuck E. Cheese crap, but it won't happen and never wil a "family-friendly" dukes movie. besides CBS gave you 2 "family friendly" dukes reunion movies.

for those hardcore fans wanting the original cast, this must be the sign of the apocolpyse.

let's not forget that in back to the fature, doc brown's time machine was supposed to be a fridge instead of a car. by the way, R.I.P. John Delorean, who passed away over the weekend at age 82 from complications following a stroke

you think i'm a teen? that's flattering considering i'm going on 30 yrs old. Jessica simpson s a beautiful person, your idea of beauty of severely warped to call her ugly. You're always ready with a spitball, ain'tcha. Well, having considered the introspective analysis you've offered - I'd have to say that the most artificial thing about Jessica is her acting. My preferences for Daisy's role have more to do with the authentic representation of the original character, rather than any crude comparison of body parts. Admittedly, my perspective on casting is different than yours, as I'm not struggling with adolescent dementia. I'm also of the opinion, that if you put the original Dukes cast in the movie, next to the new cast....the originals would steal the show, wrinkles, dimples, warts n' all. I know you'll be shocked someday when you too, grow older, and you can legally have your first beer. Time plays no favorites...you can only hope it treats you as kindly, as it's treated them. Brian

I think the jury is out until we all see the movie. In the meantime, I think as far as Bo, Luke, and Daisy are concerned, the cast coulda been better. Brian how could the cast be better? is it because you want some brunette with plastics boobs to play daisy? or would yolu rather have old, wrinkled up, half dead wash ups in this movie?

i swear to god almighty if i hear one more crack about this cast being wrong, i'll shoot someone. this is the perfect cast, this is what the creator wanted, it's either this or ashton kutcher and paul walker (which both really are the true bad choices).

you do know that stuff that is "leaked" is actually intentinally put out there to peak viewer interest.
