Fifty Shades Darker Extended Trailer – Jamie Dornan & Dakota Johnson are back getting sexy once more

January 3, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

I’m not 100% sure why it’s been called an Extended Trailer, as it’s actually shorter than the last promo that dropped, but a new trailer for Fifty Shades Darker has arrived. It gives us some new footage as well as a listen to the title track from Zayn and Taylor Swift.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson return as Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele in Fifty Shades Darker, the second chapter based on the worldwide bestselling “Fifty Shades” phenomenon.  Expanding upon events set in motion in 2015’s blockbuster film that grossed more than $560 million globally, the new installment arrives for Valentine’s Day and invites you to slip into something a shade darker.

‘When a wounded Christian Grey tries to entice a cautious Ana Steele back into his life, she demands a new arrangement before she will give him another chance.  As the two begin to build trust and find stability, shadowy figures from Christian’s past start to circle the couple, determined to destroy their hopes for a future together.

‘Also returning from Fifty Shades of Grey are Academy Award® winner Marcia Gay Harden, Jennifer Ehle, Luke Grimes, Rita Ora, Victor Rasuk, Eloise Mumford and Max Martini, who are joined for the first time by Oscar® winner Kim Basinger, Hugh Dancy, Bella Heathcote and Eric Johnson.

‘Fifty Shades Darker is directed by James Foley (Fear, House of Cards) and once again produced by Michael De Luca, Dana Brunetti and Marcus Viscidi, alongside E L James, the creator of the culture-spanning blockbuster series.  The screenplay is by Niall Leonard, based on the novel by James.’

The movie will be in cinemas in February. [Read more…]

New Fifty Shades Darker Trailer – Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson get steamy again

December 7, 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

The Fifty Shades movies are a peculiar phenomenon. The first trailer for Fifty Shades Darker broke the record for most views in 24 hours, but it’s a franchise that barely seems to register for those who didn’t immediately watch the trailer, with very people in between.

Now a second trailer has arrived.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson return as Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele in Fifty Shades Darker, the second chapter based on the worldwide bestselling “Fifty Shades” phenomenon.  Expanding upon events set in motion in 2015’s blockbuster film that grossed more than $560 million globally, the new installment arrives for Valentine’s Day and invites you to slip into something a shade darker.

Fifty Shades Of Grey – Unseen Edition (Blu-ray Review)

June 23, 2015 By Tim Isaac 2 Comments

Starring: Dakota Johnson, Jamie Dornan, Marcia Gay Harden, Jennifer Ehle, Max Martini
Director: Sam Taylor-Johnson
Running Time: 128 mins
Certificate: 18
Release Date: June 22nd 2015 (UK)

Anyone who knows me will be aware that there aren’t many occasions when I don’t know what to say, but as the credits rolled on Fifty Shades Of Grey, I really had no idea what to make of it.

It should come as no surprise by now to hear that Fifty Shades Of Grey is about young, naïve virgin Anastasia Steele (Dakota Johnson), who is sent to interview the handsome billionaire Christian Grey (Jamie Dornan) after her journalist roommate gets ill. Christian is drawn to Anastasia and begins to court her in his own singular style – where he is very adamant that he doesn’t do the girlfriend thing, or romance, or indeed typical human emotions.

Fifty Shades Of Grey Adds Marcia Gay Harden

December 4, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Marcia-Gay-HardenFifty Shades Of Grey has added an Oscar-winner to the cast, with Marcia Gay Harden signing on to play Dr. Grace Trevelyan, according to Variety. The movie has just started shooting in Vancouver.

Trevelyan is the kinky Christian Grey’s (Jamie Dornan) adoptive mother, but before that she treated him after his biological mother committed suicide when he was just four years old. She also adopted Christian’s siblings Elliot (Luke Grimes) and Mia (Rita Ora). In the E.L. James novel, she lives in Bellvue, Washington with her husband, Carrick Grey.

The movie follows 27-year-old billionaire Christian and his S&M filled affair with young college student Anastasia Steele (Dakota Johnson). Jennifer Ehle, Victor Rasuk, Eloise Mumford and Max Martini also star. Sam Taylor-Johnson is directing from a script by Kelly Marcel, Patrick Marber and Mark Bomback.

August 21, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


With the 50th anniversary of JFK’s assassination coming up in November, it’s little surprise a movie like Parkland is due out soon, which focusses on the hospital the President was taken to after he was shot by Lee Harvey Oswald (and where Oswald went when he was killed). Now the first trailer for the movie is here.

Billy Bob Thornton plays the head of Dallas’ Secret Service in the film, with Paul Giamatti as Abraham Zapruder, the man who took some infamous footage of the assassination (which many will remember from JFK). Marcia Gay Harden is the head nurse at the hospital, with Zac Efron as a rookie doctor who has to work on the President. Jeremy Strong plays Lee Harvey Oswald.

The movie’s US release has just been moved to early October, with a November 8th UK release currently set. [Read more…]

July 3, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

eileen-atkins1Woody Allen is just finishing off Blue Jasmine, but he’s already busy putting together his next movie, which, as is Woody’s way, hasn’t had a title released yet. Colin Firth and Emma Stone are set to star, and now they’ve been joined by some great talents, as TheWrap reports that Eileen Atkins, Marcia Gay Harden, Jacki Weaver, Hamish Linklater and Simon McBurney will appear.

Erica Leerhsen and Jeremy Shamos are also set to star in the film, although as always, Allen is keeping the plot details to himself. The plan though is to start shooting fairly soon for release next year.

Blue Jasmine meanwhile, which stars Alec Baldwin, Cate Blanchett, Louis C.K., Michael Stuhlbarg, Peter Sarsgaard, Bobby Cannavale, Alden Ehrenreich, and Sally Hawkins, is set for release in the US on July 26th, with a September 20th UK date planned.

Mark Feuerstein Turns Larry Gaye: Renegade Male Flight Attendant

November 30, 2012 By Tim Isaac 1 Comment

Although it hasn’t been confirmed this one has some gay interest to, it’s about flight attendants and the lead character is called Larry Gaye – so we’re going to stereotype this one and call LGBT interest on it!

Mark Feuerstein, star of TV’s Royal Pains, has revealed he’s steering the movie Larry Gaye: Renegade Male Flight Attendant, which already has a great cast attached, including Feuerstein himself, alongside Stanley Tucci, Marcia Gay Harden, Molly Shannon, Taye Diggs, and Henry Winkler.

Variety reports the film, ‘follows womanizing, self-anointed ‘renegade’ male flight attendant Larry Gaye (Feuerstein), who must save the day when the airline he works for tries to eliminate flight attendants as a cost-cutting measure.’

The actor apparently fell in love with the script by his friend Mike Sikowitz (best known for writing several episodes of Friends) and has been steering it to production. Now it’s set start shooting in Janaury, with Sam Friedlander (Royal Pains) directing.

Feuerstein commented, “I can’t believe we get to make this ridiculous, fun and incredibly funny. “This character’s not just a male flight attendant – he’s a renegade male flight attendant. Larry Gaye makes his own rules and then he breaks them. This is my ‘Rocky!’ I’m so excited!”
