Gordon-Levitt dives into Premium Rush and Looper

Joseph Gordon-Levitt trickles his way out of drama and more into the explosive line of fire as he circles two roles in action features. The first one of them is Premium Rush, a Columbia Pictures film that sees Gordon-Levitt as a New York bike messenger who picks up an envelope at Columbia University, only to be chased throughout the city by a dirty cop desperate to get his hands on it (Heat Vision Blog). David Koepp is directing and co-wrote the feature with John Kamps. The filmmaker’s previous credits including Secret Window, Ghost Town and Stir of Echoes.

The second film Gordon-Levitt is eyeballing is Looper, a futuristic tale in which time travel has been invented, with operatives sent back to the present to assassinate criminals. Gordon-Levitt will play a man sent back to kill himself (THR). Rian Johnson, who directed Brick and The Brothers Bloom, is helming the feature.

You can next see Joseph Gordon-Levitt share the screen with the likes of Leonardo DiCaprio in the upcoming Christopher Nolan film Inception, coming out in theaters and IMAX on July 16th under Warner Bros Pictures.

I've been in love with film ever since I was a kid. The time, effort and passion that runs through a majority most film is something that's always attracted me to this field. What ended up happening with my big appetite for all things going on in the industry turned from random blurbs on Facebook to an unexpected but fun job. College student by day, movie news writer by early morning...or any time in the day and night when more news arrives. Working towards my bachelor's degree in film, what a surprise. I do other things too, like draw, write stories, maintain a social life and feed my pet dragon Lockheed. If you want to know more about me, hunt me down and just ask.
