A new trailer for the feel-good drama Hector and the Search For Happiness has arrived, and as you’ll be able to see, it has a great cast including Simon Pegg, Rosamund Pike, Toni Collette, Christopher Plummer, Jean Reno and Stellan Skarsgard.

Hector and the Search For Happiness tells the story of Hector (Pegg), an eccentric yet lovable London psychiatrist who finds himself at a crossroads: His patients just aren’t getting any happier and his life is going nowhere. With encouragement from his girlfriend, Clara (Pike), Hector decides to break away from his sheltered life and go on a global quest to find out whether happiness truly exists – and more importantly, whether it exists for Hector. With the help of friends old and new, Hector embarks on a journey of self-discovery that proves colourful, dangerous, exotic and hilarious.

May 8, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Starring: Tyler Perry, Matthew Fox, Edward Burns, Jean Reno, Carmen Egojo
Director: Rob Cohen
Running Time: 101 mins
Certificate: 15
Release Date: May 6th 2013

We’ve rather missed out on Tyler Perry here in the UK. While his self-written and directed movies have proved big hits amongst African-American audiences in the US and turned him into a multi-millionaire, many of his films never got cinemas releases in Britain. Some did get belated DVD releases, but a few have never come out here at all. Alex Cross is Perry’s attempt to segue over into the worldwide mainstream cinema success, as well as being the first film to have him in the lead that he didn’t also write and helm himself (he did pop up in a small role in Star Trek though).

April 11, 2012 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Actorly and literary types love Anton Chekhov, but he’s not exactly a writer who’s permeated the mainstream. However Hurt Locker actor Christian Camargo is hoping to change that, as he’s planning to write and direct a modern day take on Chekhov’s classic, The Seagull.

Now he’s got a to flight cast to help him, as Variety reports that Allison Janney, William Hurt, Jean Reno, Katie Holmes, Mark Rylance and Juliet Rylance have signed up to star. The Seagull is well known for its large cast of characters, telling interconnected tales of romantic and artistic conflict, mainly concentrating on ingenue Nina, fading actress Irina Arkadina, her son the symbolist playwright Konstantin Tréplev, and the famous middlebrow writer Trigorin.

However rather than being set in 19th Century Russia, this new version will take place in modern day rural New England on a Memorial Day weekend. Allsion Janney is set to play Elizabeth, a film star based on the Arkadina , with Hurt as her brother and Katie Holmes as the emotional daughter of the estate’s caretaker. Shooting will take place this summer in New York.
