I think I know to whom you refer, Anonon. I can't be bothered to scroll back though her page though.
I am interested that you say that it's not normal to have no projects announced.it is the great stan cliché that he must be VERY BUSY behind the scenes reading plays and preparing new projects - as if that actually took as much time as a proper day job and didn't leave loads of time for loafing around! And as if it were somehow bad for him to take a break anyway...
I wonder if he recognises that after filming or promoting since January 14 with barely a break, he needs a rest. Since end '13 he has done: Coriolanus, CP, HR, ISTL, [shortish break of maybe 2 months], TNM, TIFF promo, Kong, ISTL promo [shortish break in May 16 but not really as loads of appearances], THE SUMMER OF LOVE, Thor. He has had a bit of a break since Thor finished and I think this is the longest since at least January 15 when he finished ISTL and hadn't started TNM. He will then have what I am sure will be a fairly punishing press tour for SI - it is being heavily promoted in the Far East so I am sure there will be more China trips.
I think the Hard Boiled thing is only in development. I am sure TH will do it and I am sure he has attached his name to it early to help Ben Wheatley get funding. But it seems unlikely to be a project for the back end of his year, for example.
