News about Jessica Alba’s movie, “The Killer Inside of Me” have been reported on the local news website for Oklahoma , NewsChannel8, as being spotted in the downtown area of Tulsa resuming the filming of the movie (June 29th).  Due to wrap up shortly.

I have to say the interest in this movie, at least on my side, was overshadowed by the film’s unwanted publicity of Jessica Alba’s little “adventure” in Oklahoma.   Currently, the “Fantastic Four” starlet has already finished filming her part in the movie and will be playing a prostitute (Joyce Lakeland) in this re-make of the 1976 version.  I think we’ll definitely be seeing a more sultry and grittier side to Jessica Alba in this film, compare to anything we have seen of her on the big screen.  Which, I’m sure we Alba fans can’t wait to see!

What we know of the film?

The movie is an independent film directed by Michael Winterbottom, based on a crime story novel  in the 1950s written by Jim Thompson.  The story follows a seemingly dull, small-town deputy sheriff that has suppressed his long-time homicidal urges that he had since childhood, but has suddenly resurfaced beyond his control (Uh, oh… if Jessica is already done filming her part in the movie and it’s currently still being filmed, does that mean.. no..gasp..not Jessica?!?).

Jessica Alba’s co-stars are Casey Affleck (who plays the disturbed deputy sheriff) , and Kate Hudson (the sheriff’s school teacher girlfriend).  Also starring in the movie are Bill Pullman, Simon Baker, and Elias Koteas in this crime thriller.  The film is expected to be released in 2010.

Jessica Alba has wrapped up filming on “The Killer Inside Me” and we should see her on the big screen in that film sometime in 2010.

So, what do we know about Jessica’s other film “An Invisible Sign of My Own”? Not much! But here’s what we do know.

Synopsis:

Mona Gray (played by Jessica Alba) is a 20-year-old loner who, as a child, turned to math for salvation after her father became ill. As an adult, Mona now teaches the subject and must help her students through their own crises.

The film is currently in post-production but doesn’t have a release date yet. A few sources say we will get to see this movie in late 2009. Hopefully we will get some more info and an exact release date before too long! It sounds like an interesting movie.

In 2005, Jessica Alba played Nancy Callahan in Frank Miller’s “Sin City”. Here’s a behind-the-scenes look into the film with co-director Robert Rodriguez.

Synopsis:

“Sin City” is four stories inter-weaved telling tales of corruption in Basin City. The first story (The Customer is always right) is short, and is based on the depression of women that they need to pay a man to feel loved when they commit suicide. The next story is Part 1 of “That Yellow Bastard” about a cop who needs to save a young girl from being raped. The third story (The Hard Goodbye) features a man taking revenge on a heartless killer who murdered his one-night stand. The fourth story (The Big, Fat Kill) stars a man who must dispatch a cop’s body, but it will be a tough ride to do it. Following that are two conclusions to Sin City, the ending of “That Yellow Bastard” which is set 8 years later, and a short story that ends Sin City.

According to MTV, Jessica Alba and Robert Rodriguez have secured the film rights to a French comic book series titled “The Insiders.” Where did this news originate from? Reportedly several French websites are covering the story.

“The Insiders” first debuted in 2002 from Jean-Claude Bartoll and Renaud Garreta, yielding seven volumes of the series in France with an eighth scheduled for this October. In the same month, Americans will also see the first volume of “The Insiders” titled Chechen Guerilla — perhaps a move to familiarize stateside audiences with Alba’s upcoming character.

So, who would Jessica Alba play? Najah Cruz, a Columbian woman with “the weapons expertise and combat skills of a James Bond.” The character is “tasked with infiltrating a crime syndicate on behalf of the United States government, where she ultimately works her way into becoming the lead criminal’s body guard.”

What do you think? Can you see Jessica playing this character?
