Hitchcock 2012 movie poster with Anthony Hopkins

Fox Searchlight released the first official Hitchcock movie poster earlier today featuring a finely dressed Anthony Hopkins holding a large butcher knife between entwined fingers under Alfred Hitchcock’s famous opening words “Good Evening.” In addition to the poster being released, the production company also made the surprise announcement that the film, originally scheduled for a 2013 release, will hit theaters on November 23. The move will make the film (and its cast and crew) eligible for Oscar awards this season!

Hitchcock, which is based on the book Alfred Hitchcock and the Making of Psycho by Stephen Rebello, is about Hitchcock’s struggles to finance the making of the classic 1960 suspense/thriller. In addition to Anthony Hopkins, the film also stars Scarlett Johansson as Janet Leigh (the actress who played Marion Crane, who gets stabbed to death in the infamous shower scene), James D’Arcy as Anthony Perkins (Norman Bates), Helen Mirren as Alfred Hitchcocks’s wife, and Jessica Biel as Vera Miles (Marion Crane’s sister).

Sir Anthony Hopkins to Bryan Cranston: “Best acting I have seen – ever.”

ByDarren O

Sir Anthony Hopkins is widely considered one of the greatest actors in cinematic history. In a 2005 poll, Hopkins was selected as the greatest British actor of all time. If you want to get more modern, Hopkins comes in at #8 on IMDB’s list of the greatest 100 actors of all time from anywhere. What I’m trying to say is that Hopkins’ credentials are pretty top-notch so when he shares an opinion about the profession of acting people tend to listen. In a remarkable fan letter from Hopkins to Breaking Bad star Bryan Cranston, the living legend exalted the latter’s performance as Walter White using a heaping, helping load of superlatives that you’ve got to read to believe.
