Tony Jaa is on a roll -downhill and fast
Studio chief Somsak 'Sia Jiang' Techaratanaprasert holds two press conferences in as many weeks about his top action star Thatchakorn 'Tony Jaa' Yeerum and you know things aren't going well at Sahamongkol Film International.
STUDIO CHIEF Somsak "Sia Jiang" Techaratanaprasert holds two press conferences in as many weeks about his top action star Thatchakorn "Tony Jaa" Yeerum and you know things aren't going well at Sahamongkol Film International.
Last week it was an "urgent" clarification that he wasn't upset after reading in the paper like everyone else that his boy was heading to Hollywood to appear in "Fast and Furious 7". Their freshly renewed 10-year contract didn't cover that possibility, Sia Jiang declared, but he sure wished Jaa had called him directly.
Another week passed and still no word from Jaa, so on Tuesday Sia Jiang faced the press again, this time flanked by filmmakers Prachya Pinkaew and Panna Ritthikrai. Reporters got only a few hours' advance notice - and then another clarification. Actually, the studio boss said, the contract with Jaa does cover overseas movie projects. "If he wants to be in 'Fast and Furious 7', they have to contact Sahamongkol Films for approval first," Sia Jiang growled. Now there were two furious things in the picture.
It turned out that the day after the previous press gab, Sia Jiang heard from Jaa - albeit not in person. Jaa sent him formal notice that he doesn't belong to Sahamongkol anymore and reserves the right to work on any movie project he chooses. Jaa also demanded that Sahamongkol seek his permission to use him (or presumably his likeness, at least) to promote "Tom Yum Goong 2" when it comes out on October 23.
"He said his move to Hollywood had nothing to do with me," Sia Jiang said. "But I called you guys here to make it clear why I've changed my stance."
Obviously sting by this latest unexpected and rather unpleasant surprise from his star, Sia Jiang sent out notifications of his own to other studios that they can't use Jaa without his okay.
Panna, a mentor for Jaa when it comes to martial arts, pointed out that Jaa had only just signed his revised Sahamongkol contract in mid-July. "He came with his wife and kid. He asked if it was okay if he accepted some advertising work." Amid this tussle, Panna tried to call, but said Jaa didn't answer the phone.
So, bottom line: Summon the lawyers.
Nothing was said at the press conference about Jaa's other movie in the works, "A Man Will Rise", which he co-stars in and co-directed with Swedish meatball Dolph Lungrund. Sahamongkol invested around Bt150 million, but Jaa seems to have walked away from the project, just as he did on "Ong-Bak 2" and "Ong-Bak 3", leaving Panna and Prachya to finish those films.
No work has been done on "A Man Will Rise" for two months and Jaa is virtually in hiding. Assistant director Vithitnan Rojanaphanich is ready to get the movie done, but Jaa's absence complicates things.
This is a hell of a way to advance your career, but perhaps before Hollywood is ready to embrace him, Jaa is going to have to clean up the mess at home.

Matt Damon Joins Christopher Nolan's 'Interstellar,' Lines Up Directorial Debut 'The Foreigner'
So is Matt Damon reuniting with Paul Greengrass for another ‘Bourne’ film? While Twitch says yes, Universal Studios is denying their report. While we wait and see what shakes out, some surprising Damon-related news arrived when we turned to our trusted sources (you’ll remember we first reported on Greengrass leaving the 'Bourne 4' back in the day). But enough preamble...
The Playlist has learned that Matt Damon has joined Christopher Nolan’s “Interstellar” in a small, undisclosed role. The character, like all of the roles in the film, is being kept under wraps, but sources close to the actor tell us he’ll only be shooting on the project for two weeks in Iceland (for comparison sake, the entire shoot is scheduled for four months). It's another quick appearance for Damon in a forthcoming film, as he also has a small cameo in Terry Gilliam’s “The Zero Theorem,” which debuts at the Venice Film Festivalvery soon (look for our review in the upcoming days).
Meanwhile, Damon looks to have found what will be his directorial debut: “A Murder Foretold," penned by Academy Award-winning “Argo” screenwriter Chris Terrio. The film is based off a 2008 New Yorker articleby David Grann, that tells the true story of a man who is gunned down in the escalating violence in Guatemala, and leaves behind a videotape after his death implicating the president, his wife, and other close aides in his killing. Of course, this rocked the nation, with a special prosecutor who digs deep to find the shocking truth behind the man's murder. The project is currently set up at Paramount and Indian Paintbrush under Steve Zaillan’s Film Rites production banner. (Update: Following our report, Deadlinehas revealed the title of the movie to be "The Foreigner.")
As you might remember, Damon was supposed to direct “Promised Land” in the beginning of 2012, but reshoots on “Elysium” overlapped into the time he had planned to do pre-production work on the movie. Knowing his schedule would be too tight, Damon made the early decision to bow out and found a replacement in friend and filmmaker Gus Van Sant. It was Damon's third time working with him, and having worked with helmers like Martin Scorsese, Robert De Niro, Terry Gilliam, Steven Soderbergh, Clint Eastwood and many other auteurs, he's been itching to join his friend Ben Affleck in trying his hand at directing. (Damon is also attached to "Father Daughter Time" at Warner Bros. though it looks like 'Foretold' is going first.)
So some exciting plans on the horizon for Damon, but before we go, here's one last bit of "Interstellar" trivia: celebrated Indian actor Irrfan Khan ("Life Of Pi," "The Amazing Spider-Man") turned down a role in Nolan's film. "I was in talks with them for an important role. It had a great compact cast, but I can't divulge much about that. They expected a huge commitment from my end. I had to stay in the U.S. for four months at a stretch. I tried to work out my schedule and suggested if I could shuttle between India and the U.S. as it wouldn't have been possible for me to be there for that long," he told The Times Of Indi. "I wanted to be here for 'The Lunchbox' and 'D-Day.' They couldn't allow that. I don't have a tendency to regret what I do, but knowing it's a Christopher Nolan film, I can say that this has been one of the most difficult decisions I've made."
Supermodel "Yui" admitted to mental institute
The former supermodel was found wandering on Phetkasem Road, carrying a plastic bag. She was apparently disoriented and confused. She was admitted to the Somdetchaopraya Institute of Psychiatry.Social Development and Human Security Minister Pavena Hongsakul visited her at the hospital.
Pavena told reporters that the ministry has contacted her family and checked if it is able to take care of the model. The ministry is also ready to provide a shelter and treatment, if her family cannot.
"She talked sensibly to me and said she wanted to meet her brother," Pavena said. Rojjana is the first Thai model to make it big on the world stage. She was born to a farmer’s family in Ubon Ratchathani. Joining the model world 16 years ago, she was a covergirl, the face of a Chanel perfume and shuttling between New York, Paris, London and Milan. But with fame and fortune came parties and drugs, which led to her downfall.
