We have some first glances at two movies coming out next year that are on my must-see list, both from Warner Bros. The first is writer-director Kevin Smith’s first major studio-financed movie titled A Couple of Dicks. It teams up the guaranteed hilarious duo of Bruce Willis and Tracy Morgan as two cops whose adventures include locating a stolen baseball card, rescuing a woman and dealing with gangsters and their laundered money. The film is only directed by Kevin Smith, not written by (the film is written by the Bro-tandem of Robb and Mark Cullen) but Smith’s signature outrageous comedic-style should be all over this film, especially since it will inevitably be rated R.

If that wasn’t enough to get you to the theater, it was announced just last week that Minnesota-native funny man, Sean William Scott and the O.C.’s Adam Brody were signed on to join the cast  of A Couple of Dicks, boosting the sarcastic element of the comedy.

The film started filming this week in New York and several set pics have already surfaced. Accidentalsexiness has the first photo featuring Willis and Morgan sitting in a car, see the enhanced pic below:

The second picture from the A Couple of Dicks set is one of the funniest set pics I’ve seen in a while. It comes from ComingSoon and it features Tracy Morgan dressed up in a cell phone costume, riding a tricked-out tricycle, while being chased by a pit bull. This film is starting to look good. Check out the photo below:

The second movie on my most anticipated list is Jonah Hex. Continuing to best utilize the endless amount of comic-book source material at their disposal, WB is bringing the western-action-adventure comic from DC to life. I’ve written posts about this film before, mostly regarding casting. It stars Josh Brolin as Jonah Hex, a scarred bounty hunter during the days of the wild west, who has the daunting task of tracking down an evil vodoo practitioner (played by the brilliant John Malkovich) bent on liberating the South by raising an army of the undead. Pretty epic adventure story. The film also stars Megan Fox, Will Arnett and Michael Shannon. Below is the first set pic of Brolin as the scarred bounty Hunter. Check out the pic below and compare it to how Jonah Hex looks in the comics:
