The Edge Of Seventeen (DVD Review) – Teen life gets a bit much for Haillee Steinfeld

March 25, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Starring: Blake Jenner, Hailee Steinfeld, Haley Lu Richardson, Kyra Sedgwick, Woody Harrelson
Director: Kelly Fremon Craig
Running Time: 104 mins
Certificate: 15
Release Date: March 27th 2017 (UK)

Nadine (Hailee Steinfeld) is a teenage girl who feels likes an outcast. She only has one friend, Krista (Hayley Lu Richardson), and has difficulty with both her perfect brother Darian (Blake Jenner) and her neurotic mother (Kyra Sedgwick). Things seem to be getting even worse when she walks in on Krista and Darian in bed, leading to a complete breakdown in her relationship with both her best friend and her brother.

As her social awkwardness and desperation intensifies – including a difficult situation involving a hot guy and a sext – she may be overlooking something good with a boy who’s interested in her, but who she doesn’t really see in a romantic light. [Read more…]

Search For The Young Han Solo Narrows To The Likes Of Alden Ehrenreich, Jack Reynor & Taron Egerton

March 15, 2016 By Tim Isaac 2 Comments

egerton-reynor-ehrenreichThe search for the actor who will play young Han Solo in the planned Star Wars spin-off that will focus on the characters’ early days continues to narrow. Back in January it was said the likes of Miles Teller, Ansel Elgort, Dave Franco, Logan Lerman, Jack Reynor, Scott Eastwood, Emory Cohen, and Blake Jenner were on the shortlist.

Things seem to have shifted to some new names, with THR reporting that at screen tests in London last weekend were the likes of Alden Ehrenreich (Hail, Caesar!); Jack Reynor (Transformers: Age of Extinction), Taron Egerton (Kingsman), and Emory Cohen (Brooklyn). Other names are also believed to still be in the mix, with Variety adding Blake Jenner (Everybody Wants Some!!) and Jack O’Connell (Unbroken).

Previous reports have suggested that while the movie isn’t expected to go into production until January 2017 (for a release May 25, 2018), the reason that they want to find their man now is because of a planned cameo in this year’s Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, which is also set before the events of Star Wars: A New Hope. Phil Lord and Christopher Miller (21 Jump Street, The Lego Movie) are set to direct the Han Solo flick.

A decision on who will get the role is expected very soon.

Blake Jenner, Tyler Hoechlin & Wyatt Russell Say That’s What I’m Talking About For Richard Linklater

September 13, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

tyler-hoechlinAfter the critical triumph of Boyhood, Richard Linklater is busy planning his next movie, That’s What I’m Talking About, a movie that’s said to be similar in tone to Linklater’s breakthrough stoner classic, Dazed And Confused.

Now he’s pulling the cast together as Deadline reports that Blake Jenner (Glee), Tyler Hoechlin (Teen Wolf), and Wyatt Russell (22 Jump Street) have all been cast as baseball players in the movie.

As with several of Linklater’s other films, it feels like he’s channelling memories of his own youth with the movie, as it’s ‘set in 1980, and a college freshman moves into the baseball house at his college and experiences a fraternity like lifestyle with his hard partying teammates.’
