Jonah Hex movie News - Fassbender photo

I nabbed this photo from Get The Big Picture and shows Michael Fassbender in his tattoo makeup:

This character, for the folks who have never read the books, does not appear in any Jonah Hex book.

Jonah Hex movie news - Interviews with About.com

These three quick interviews at Comic Con with About.com are pretty good.

First is Josh Brolin: He makes mention of the 3 incarnations of Jonah Hex with one looking like "a 70's porn star", no doubt a reference to the futuristic Hex book.

Next is Michael Fassbender: Interviewer Rebecca Murray asks if he drew any inspiration from the books. He doesn't (probably since his character, Burke, doesn't appear in any books) but makes mention of a bowler. The most prominant bowler wearer was Ned Landon.

Finally is Jimmy Hayward & Megan Fox: Hayward is revealing himself as a fan of the book and this bodes well for the movie. Megan? Well, I've never seen a film with her in it and every interview she is saying the same thing over & over & over & over again. Here, I'm not so impressed.
