New Alpha Trailer – Kodi Smit-McPhee bonds with a wolf during the Ice Age

June 14, 2018 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

It’s almost a year since we got the first trailer for Alpha. But after the release got pushed back, we’re only now getting a new promo for the intriguing looking movie. It’s sort of Clan Of The Cave Bear meets Ice Age, imagining how man an dog first became friends.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘An epic adventure set in the last Ice Age. Europe, 20,000 years ago. While on his first hunt with his tribe’s most elite group, a young man is injured and left for dead. Awakening to find himself broken and alone — he must learn to survive and navigate the harsh and unforgiving wilderness. Reluctantly taming a lone wolf abandoned by its pack, the pair learn to rely on each other and become unlikely allies, enduring countless dangers and overwhelming odds in order to find their way home before the deadly winter arrives.’

The film hits cinemas in August. Take a look at the new trailer and poster below. [Read more…]

Alpha Trailer – Kodi Smit-McPhee bonds with a wolf during the Ice Age

July 18, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

I’m not quite sure what I’ve just seen, but it certainly appears looks like Alpha will be quite a singular film. From the evidence of this trailer it’s Clan Of The Cave Bear meets Ice Age, imagining how man an dog first became friends.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘An epic adventure set in the last Ice Age. Europe, 20,000 years ago. While on his first hunt with his tribe’s most elite group, a young man is injured and left for dead. Awakening to find himself broken and alone – he must learn to survive and navigate the harsh and unforgiving wilderness. Reluctantly taming a lone wolf abandoned by its pack, the pair learn to rely on each other and become unlikely allies, enduring countless dangers and overwhelming odds in order to find their way home before the deadly winter arrives.

‘The film is directed by Albert Hughes and stars Kodi Smit-McPhee and Jóhannes Haukur Johannesson.’

The movie is due out March 2018. Take a look at the first trailer below. [Read more…]

Final X-Men: Apocalypse Trailer – Can a mutant destroy the entire world?

April 25, 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

x-men-apocalypse-slideIn just a few weeks the mutants are returning and facing the awesome power of Apocalypse – an ancient mutant who is so powerful he has been worshipped as a god, and who isn’t impressed with the modern world. The final trailer is here to suggest this is going to be pretty epic.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Following the critically acclaimed global smash hit X-Men: Days of Future Past, director Bryan Singer returns with X-MEN: APOCALYPSE. Since the dawn of civilization, he was worshipped as a god. Apocalypse, the first and most powerful mutant from Marvel’s X-Men universe, amassed the powers of many other mutants, becoming immortal and invincible. Upon awakening after thousands of years, he is disillusioned with the world as he finds it and recruits a team of powerful mutants, including a disheartened Magneto (Michael Fassbender), to cleanse mankind and create a new world order, over which he will reign. As the fate of the Earth hangs in the balance, Raven (Jennifer Lawrence) with the help of Professor X (James McAvoy) must lead a team of young X-Men to stop their greatest nemesis and save mankind from complete destruction.’

It’ll be in cinemas on May 18th. [Read more…]

New X-Men: Apocalypse Trailer – What happens when mutants start to believe they’re gods?

March 18, 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Xmen_Apocalypse_CampD_Defend-slideThe timeline may have been reset with X-Men: Days Of Future Past, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t still plenty of problems between man and mutant – or more particularly in Apocalypse between mutant and mutant. Now a new trailer has dropped which suggests this is going to be one hell of a battle.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Following the critically acclaimed global smash hit X-Men: Days of Future Past, director Bryan Singer returns with X-MEN: APOCALYPSE. Since the dawn of civilization, he was worshipped as a god.

The Defenders Get An X-Men: Apocalypse Poster

March 10, 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Xmen_Apocalypse_CampD_Defend-slideA couple of days ago a new poster for X-Men: Apocalypse introduced us to the Four Horsemen who will be plotting humanity’s destruction. Now it’s time for those on the other side to shine, including newcomers Sophie Turner, Tye Sheridan and Kodi Smit-McPhee as young versions of Jean Grey, Cyclops and Nightcrawler.

There’s also Professor Xavier (James McAvoy), Nicholas Hoult (Beast), Mystique (Jennifer Lawrence – who it seems is on the good side for this one), and Quicksilver (Evan Peters).

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Following the critically acclaimed global smash hit X-Men: Days of Future Past, director Bryan Singer returns with X-MEN: APOCALYPSE. Since the dawn of civilization, he was worshipped as a god.

X-Men: Apocaplyse Extended Super Bowl Spot – Things are getting serious for the mutants

February 8, 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

x-men-apocalypse-trailer-slideThings were pretty precarious for the mutants in Days Of Future Past, but it looks like resetting the timeline hasn’t made their lives any easier. An extended version of the movie’s Super Bowl spot certainly suggests things are getting intense, angry and destructive.

Take a look below.

Here’s the synopsis:’Following the critically acclaimed global smash hit X-Men: Days of Future Past, director Bryan Singer returns with X-MEN: APOCALYPSE. Since the dawn of civilization, he was worshipped as a god. Apocalypse, the first and most powerful mutant from Marvel’s X-Men universe, amassed the powers of many other mutants, becoming immortal and invincible.

X-Men: Apocalypse Trailer – James McAvoy and co. go up against what may be the ultimate mutant

December 13, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

x-men-apocalypse-trailer-slideAfter the huge success of X-Men: Days Of Future Past, the mutant are returning with X-Men: Apocalypse, which may not have the actors from the original trilogy, but brings back the likes of James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender and Jennifer Lawrence, alongside plenty of newbies, many of them playing younger versions of characters we’ve seen before.

And with Days Of Future Past resetting the timeline, it also allows for reinvented versions of characters.

Here’s the synopsis:’Following the critically acclaimed global smash hit X-Men: Days of Future Past, director Bryan Singer returns with X-MEN: APOCALYPSE. Since the dawn of civilization, he was worshipped as a god. Apocalypse, the first and most powerful mutant from Marvel’s X-Men universe, amassed the powers of many other mutants, becoming immortal and invincible.

Slow West Trailer – Michael Fassbender goes Western

March 25, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Slow-West-slideIt seems Michael Fassbender was keen to make a Western, as he was attached to Jane Got A Gun, but X-Men scheduling issues forced him to drop out, but now he’s made Slow West (it’s the movie he was shooting when one paparazzi managed to take a sneaky pic of him having an outdoor piss). The trailer for the film has now arrived, which you can watch below.

The movie ‘follows a 16-year-old boy (Kodi Smit-McPhee) on a journey across 19th Century frontier America in search of the woman he loves, while accompanied by mysterious traveler Silas (Fassbender).’

The trailer suggest this is a film that will have plenty of style, something Sundance reviews also attested to, although it’s apparently also pretty gritty.

No UK date is currently set, but in the US it’ll arrive on DirecTV on April 16th, before hitting cinemas and VoD on May 15th. [Read more…]

Kodi Smit-McPhee Will Be X-Men: Apocalypse’s Nightcrawler

February 18, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

kodi-smit-mcphee2There will be a few changes with X-Men: Apocalypse, as while last week it was revealed the movie will feature Colossus, we now know he won’t be played by Daniel Cudmore. Now the person playing Nightcrawler has been revealed, and as the 1980s setting needs a younger actor than the mutant one Alan Cumming played in X-Men 2, this time around Kodi Smit-Mcphee will take the role.

Bryan Singer announced the news via Instagram.

As seen in X2, Nightcrawler has superhuman agility, can teleport, and is endowed with hands and feet that allow him to climb walls. Unlike many mutants he can’t ‘pass’ as a normal human due to his blue skin, elfin appearance and tail. While this resulted in him having some extremely tough times, he has largely been a happy-go-lucky practical joker.

In the comics his parents are Mystique (Jennifer Lawrence) and Azazel, who was played by Jason Flemyng in First Class but is supposed dead in Days Of Future Past. It’s not known how his origins will be changed for Apocalypse – although it’s possible they won’t be, as with Nightcrawler a teenager in the movie, it’s feasible Mystique could have had a secret child some time after the 60s-set First Class. We’ll have to wait and see.

Apocalypse deals with the modern mutants having to deal with one of the most ancient and powerful of their kind, so steps out of the mists of time to cause havoc [Read more…]
