Robert F. Kennedy that is: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0308055/

Martin Sheen, William H. Macy, Helen Hunt, Christian Slater, Joshua Jackson, James Marsden, Anthony Hopkins, Demi Moore, Sharon Stone, Elijah Wood, Lindsay Lohan, Shia LaBeouf, Nick Cannon, Freddy Rodriguez, Brian Geraghty and Emilio Estevez are set to be in it!

I guess all these guys want to be in it in order to be nostalgic about Camelot.

A part of me cringes everytime I hear his name. Of all those irritating Brat pack kids, he was the worse actor of them all, and he kept ruining what could have been decent films (both Young Guns, Freejack) with his presence.

This said, at least is not Stakeout 3 or The Mighty Ducks 10.

Shhhhh, Neville, don't say that out loud, you'll give Elmo ideas.

I'm surprised so many A-listers are gonna be in this thing. Politics aside, Elmo doesn't have a good track record when it comes to directing.

You remember that Mick Jagger was in this movie too? Estevez was hardly the worst performer in "Freejack".

All that matters to me is, Does Uncle Joe get any work out of this?

True, but he only had about 5 minutos of total screentime, whereas Emilio Estevez was virtually in every frame. And we were also supposed to like him.

True - from memory, Estevez whined like a Skywalker throughout "Freejack". Plus I don't think the narrative made a whole lot of sense, but it's been years since I saw it.

I remember Anthony Hopkins giving his reason for taking a part in Freejack: he'd always wanted to meet Mick Jagger. And as goofy as that movie is, it gave me my first real intro to Rene Russo, so it can't be ALL bad! (Homina homina homina.)

Speaking of nonsense in "Freejack" and René russo, I still find hilarious they didn't try to produce any explanation of why René Russo's character hasn't changed at all in the future...

She was freezedried?

Elmo was good in LOADED WEPON. And he got to star with Mace Widu to boot!

Given that cast, I have to wonder. Is this a modern "box movie" soap opera sub-plot disaster flick with Bobby Kennedy filling in for the S.S. Poseidon? Or is this some Oliver Stone-style conspiracy flick? I don't see who stars as Sirhan Sirhan, and there is a raft of urban legends about missing/wrong caliber/magic bullets and second assassins just as there are surrounding the tragic events in Dealy Plaza.

I think it's more of a Altmanesque arty ensemble picture about a group of diverse people who are at the hotel the night RFK was killed.
