I really wish someone had done a simulcast of the Macbeth adaptation starring James McAvoy. It got great reviews and McAvoy, a Scot and an actor who does such a killer job communicating suffering is, like, textbook Macbeth.

Rosario Dawson and Michael Fassbender were spotted together in his neighbourhood in London a couple of times this weekend. (Thanks MK!) No confirmation as to whether or not it was more than just a meeting. Or two meetings. And no body language indications either. Still, the prospect is intriguing. Full Story

Michael Fassbender was photographed outside The Groucho Club last night with a non-famous blonde, not exactly his usual target. So... is it happening? On Photo Assumption I’ll say yes based on that sheepish look on his face that can’t be blamed entirely on drunkenness and, since we’re only photo assuming anyway, I’ll add that they probably don’t know each other very well, as this kind of awkwardness implies a lack of familiarity. Full Story

Michael Fassbender was in Jonah Hex???????????? This is what I just wrote to Sarah on BBM. Followed by... HAHAHAHAHAHAAH!

Ryan Gosling and Michael Fassbender are working on a Terrence Malick movie together in Mexico. It appears they’ve become good friends. Makes sense. You know how intense Gosling is about his art. Fassbender’s an actor with the same attitude. Can you imagine their conversations about “motivation”? Jesus, the eyeroll. Full Story

A few months ago it came out that Michael Fassbender had signed on to produce and star in an adaptation of the video game Assassin’s Creed. I fretted, because video game movies, historically, don’t work and I don’t want to see Fassbender suffer the same fate as Jake Gyllenhaal and Prince of Persia. Full Story

Last week, I wrote this article about Michael Fassbender. It was offensive to some: the Fassbender fangirls. And one of them, she let me know: Hi Lainey, Your reading comprehension skills are sub par at best if you really think Fassbender yelled at the waiter in that article. Full Story

If you’ve been reading my blog the last year or so, you’ll know that I’ve been off Michael Fassbender for a while now. That messy situation with the ex-girlfriend is most of it, and then there was the time he yelled at a waiter Full Story

Ryan Gosling was already in Austin shooting Terrence Malick’s next movie, as yet untitled, and now Michael Fassbender has joined the cast at the last minute, which means the The Gos and The Fassbender are in a movie together—and yes, they have scenes together Full Story

Michael Fassbender apparently had the day off from shooting The Counselor in Alicante, Spain today. He was photographed out for a walk with a friend. Since many of you are still really into him, those are for you. And these are for me -- Natalie Dormer unrecognisable as a blonde and not in costume as Anne Boleyn or half naked as Margaery Tyrell. Full Story

This is a filler post while I work on the next article (Tom Cruise) seeing as so many of you are into Michael Fassbender. (Really? Still?) He's in London shooting The Counselor. These shots were taken today.  Full Story

After a huge 2011 and a hot start to 2012, Michael Fassbender is on a down beat, with nothing coming out for months and nothing to do but work and I don’t know…throw rocks at fish, or whatever he does for fun. (And please don’t email me to explain what The Fassbender gets up to on his down time—I like not knowing. Full Story

Fresh photos of Michael Fassbender today in London on his bike with girlfriend Nicole Beharie. Fassbender’s been working on Ridley Scott’s The Counselor. It was reported yesterday that he may also sign on to Jane Got A Gun with Natalie Portman who is also producing. Jane Got A Gun is a western. Full Story

Michael Fassbender is shooting The Counselor in London. He was photographed today looking very smart on set in a beautifully cut suit. Believe it or not, I didn’t initially see what you no doubt saw immediately. It’s just... my eye goes elsewhere. To the shoulders, to the waist, to how the pants hang at the bottom. Full Story
