- DREDD
The LA Times recently ran a special feature on the upcoming
Dredd, including a new photo of Lena Headey (300) as Madeline "Ma-Ma"
Madrigal and a special interview with the actress.

“She’s a prostitute who then kills her pimp and takes over
his drug-running business,” says Headey of her role. "And Ma-Ma is a bit
of a man-hater.”
Dredd takes place in the wild streets of Mega City One, the
lone oasis of quasi-civilization on Cursed Earth. Judge Dredd (Karl Urban) is
the most feared of elite Street Judges, with the power to enforce the law,
sentence offenders and execute them on the spot - if necessary.
“I think of her like an old great white shark who is just
waiting for someone bigger and stronger to show up and kill her,” continues the
"Game of Thrones" star. “She’s ready for it. In fact, she can’t wait
for it to happen. And yet no one can get the job done. She’s an addict, so
she’s dead in that way, but that last knock just hasn’t come. This big, fat,
scarred shark moving through the sea and everyone flees and she’s like, ‘Will
someone just have the balls to do it? Please?‘”
Dredd will be released in 2D and 3D on September 21st. It
was shot right here in South Africa, and it looks very awesome.
