Tom Holland Breaks His Nose…Again
Spider-Man is going to have a badly deviated septum by this point.
Actor Tom Holland, the current incarnation of the webslinger in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, has reportedly broken his nose on the set of his new film “Chaos Walking”.
This marks the second time he’s done that injury during a film’s production, the first being while filming “The Lost City of Z” which opened earlier this year. He injured himself in Colombia when dared to do a backflip during his last day of filming.
The new injury hasn’t stopped him too badly as the actor has been tweeting and posting on social media as per normal. There’s been no report of any change or delays to the film’s production schedule.
Daisy Ridley, Mads Mikkelsen, and Nick Jonas co-star in ‘Chaos’ which is set in a dystopian world where women are supposedly all dead and the remaining living creatures can hear each other’s thoughts.
“Chaos Walking” is scheduled for release on March 1st 2019.

Holland & Ridley’s “Chaos” Gets Major Reshoots
“Chaos Walking,” Doug Liman’s big-budget adaptation of the Patrick Ness young adult novel at Lionsgate, is reportedly undergoing significant reshoots.
“Spider-Man Homecoming” star Tom Holland and “Star Wars” lead Daisy Ridley head up the film set in a world where all women have been killed by a germ and all living creatures can hear one another’s thoughts in a stream of images, words and sounds called Noise. Holland stars as a boy forced to flee his town with his loyal dog who comes upon a strange sight: a girl (Ridley).
Lionsgate is spending between $90-100 million on the movie which wrapped in November and now has scheduled up to three weeks worth of reshoots. Trouble is, because of complicated scheduling issues with both actors the film will likely not be able to do those reshoots until the very end of the year – making its current March 1st 2019 release date an unlikely target.
Oscar-winning screenwriter Charlie Kaufman, John Lee Hancock, Gary Spinelli, Lindsey Beers and Jamie Linden all worked on the script and now Ness himself is reportedly in talks to write the new script pages. For those concerned, don’t fear as some of Liman’s best work from “The Bourne Identity” to “Edge of Tomorrow” all underwent major reworking and additional photography.

Chaos Walking is a young adult science fiction series by the U.S.-born British novelist Patrick Ness.
It is set in a dystopian world where all living creatures can hear each other's thoughts in a stream of images, words, and sounds called Noise.
The series is named after a line in the first book: "The Noise is a man unfiltered, and without a filter, a man is just chaos walking."
The series consists of a trilogy of novels and three short stories.
The three novels feature two adolescents, Todd Hewitt and Viola Eade, who encounter various moral issues and high stakes as the planet around them erupts into war.
The Knife of Never Letting Go (2008) begins with Todd being forced to flee his town after discovering a patch of silence, free of Noise.
In the second book, The Ask and the Answer (2009), tensions rise as a civil war between two opposing factions forms, and in the final book, Monsters of Men (2010) the indigenous species of New World rebels against the humans just as a ship full of new settlers is set to arrive on the planet.
The series has won almost every major children's fiction award in the UK, including the 2008 Guardian award, the James Tiptree, Jr. Award, and the Costa Children's Book Award.
Monsters of Men won the Carnegie Medal in 2011.
The series has been praised for its handling of themes such as gender politics, redemption, the meaning of war, and the unclear distinction between good and evil, all threaded through its complex, fast-paced narrative.
The first novel is narrated entirely by Todd, the second is told through the viewpoints of both Todd and Viola and the third book is narrated by Todd, Viola and The Return.
Conception
Ness claims that the idea for Chaos Walking came from "one really serious idea and one fairly stupid idea": how information overload affects youth, and how most fictional talking dogs "never actually talk like... I think dogs would actually talk".
Ness planned the series as a trilogy from the start, deciding to theme Knife about flight, Ask about tyranny and Monsters about war.
Film adaptation
Lionsgate acquired worldwide distribution rights to a film adaptation of the Chaos Walking trilogy, to be produced by Doug Davison's production company Quadrant Pictures.
Allison Shearmur and Davison are producers, Doug Liman will direct, and Daisy Ridley will star in the film alongside Tom Holland, Mads Mikkelsen and Nick Jonas.
The screenplay will be written by Ness, Charlie Kaufman and John Lee Hancock; shooting is expected to start in August 2017 in Montreal.
