That Awkward Moment Poster Featuring Zac Efron, Miles Teller & Michael B. Jordan

By Leave a Comment

that-awkward-moment-poster1
We’ve had a couple of trailers for That Awkward Moment, which surprised many by showing off Zac Efron’s showing off his butt and wearing a dildo. Now we’ve got a poster which is far more family friendly – but then, cinema foyer’s aren’t fond of showing off pictures of fake penises.

Previously titled Are We Officially Dating?, That Awkward Moment is about a groups of Manhattan friends (Zac Efron, Miles Teller, Michael B. Jordan) who initially make a pact to remain single. The plot thickens when each friend falls in love shortly after the vow is made (wouldn’t you just know it!), and have to decide “So…where is this going?”.

The movie is due out at the end of January

By Leave a Comment


Last week we had a slightly rude red band trailer for That Awkward Moment. Now we’ve got the green band version, which is still a little rude, but with fewer butt shots and dildos!

Previously titled Are We Officially Dating?, That Awkward Moment is about a groups of Manhattan friends (Zac Efron, Miles Teller, Michael B. Jordan) who initially make a pact to remain single. The plot thickens when each friend falls in love shortly after the vow is made (wouldn’t you just know it!), and have to decide “So…where is this going?”.

Kit Harington, Jack O’Connell & Miles Teller Test For Fantastic Four

By Leave a Comment

It’s believed that Fox’s reboot of Fantastic Four is nearly at the point where it ready to shoot. While there have been casting rumours for months, it’s only now they’re properly started testing actors, starting with Reed Richards (Mr. Fantastic) and Sue Storm (The Invisible Girl).

Insiders told Variety that Kit Harington (Game of Thrones), Miles Teller (The Spectacular Now) and Jack O’Connell (300: Rise of an Empire) are in line to get test for the Reed Richards role, while Saoirse Ronan (The Host), Kate Mara (Transcendence) and Margot Robbie (About Time) will try out for Sue Storm.

The studio is looking to go much younger with this rebooted version, in hopes of drawing in a new audience to reinvigorate the franchise (although it should be noted Reed Richards was in his 20s in the original comic, so despite the image of his as slightly older, they haven’t completely ditched the character’s origins).

For several months Michael B. Jordan (Chronicle, Fruitvale Station) has been the favourite to play Johnny Storm (The Human Torch), although that may change. No actors have been mentioned in connection with either Ben Grimm (The Thing) or the villain yet.

Simon Kinberg was recently brought on to work on the script, providing a polish. Jeremy Slater, Michael Green, Seth Grahame-Smith and T.S. Nowlin have previously worked on the script. Josh Trank is directing the reboot, with shooting expected to begin in the next few months.

Is Miles Teller Up To Play Reed Richards In Fantastic Four?

By Leave a Comment

Miles-TellerFor quite a while now Fox has been planning to reboot the Fantastic Four with Chronicle helmer Josh Trank at the helm. However it’s only now that they’re starting to think about casting, and if TheWrap is to be believed, Miles Teller is one of the actors in-contention for the role of Mr. Fantastic, aka Reed Richards.

Previous rumours have suggested Michael B. Jordan is being considered for Johnny Storm, aka The Human Torch, and Girls’ Allison Williams may end up as Sue Storm, aka The Invisible Woman. However there’s been no confirmation on any of these names.

While 26-year-old Footloose and 21 & Over actor Miles Teller may seem young compared to many people’s idea of Reed Richards as a slightly older man, in the comics he was indeed in his mid-20s when he, Sue Storm, Johnny Storm and Ben Grimm went on a scientific mission into space that resulted in their ship getting hit by cosmic rays and each of them gaining superpowers.

At the moment it’s difficult to know whether any of these actors will end up in the movie. Indeed it’s not even clear when the movie might shoot, but it does seem we might find out who the main cast will be soon.

The Spectacular Now Trailer – Miles Teller & Shailene Woodley fall in love

By Leave a Comment


James Ponsoldt’s film The Spectacular Now has been getting pretty good reviews after festival screenings, and now we get our first look with a trailer.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Sutter Keely (Miles Teller) lives in the now. It’s a good place for him. A high school senior, charming and self-possessed, he’s the life of the party, loves his job at a men’s clothing store, and has no plans for the future. A budding alcoholic, he’s never far from his supersized, whisky-fortified thirst-master cup. But after being dumped by his girlfriend, Sutter gets drunk and wakes up on a lawn with Aimee Finicky (Shailene Woodley) hovering over him. She’s different: the “nice girl” who reads science fiction and doesn’t have a boyfriend. While Amy has dreams of a future, Sutter lives in the impressive delusion of a spectacular now, yet somehow, they’re drawn together.’

Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Bob Odenkirk, Kyle Chandler, and Brie Larson also star. [Read more…]

Theo James Gets Male Lead in Divergent, With Aaron Eckhart & More Circling

By Leave a Comment

Theo-JamesVarious people have been cast in Divergent, but Summit has been difficulty finding the male lead. Actors such as Alex Pettyfer and Lucas Till have auditioned and the company has looked at people of various ages, but now they’ve finally gone for a actor who’s not too well known at the moment, but whose star is certainly on the rise – Theo James.

The 26-year-old has been seen in the TV series Bedlam, and in the films The Inbetweeners Movie and Underworld: Awakening, but its his lead role in the new CBS TV drama Golden Boy that’s really got people interested in him.

Based on Veronica Roth’s novel, Divergent is a adventure set in a future world where people are divided into distinct factions based on their personalities, Tris Prior (Shailene Woodley) is warned she is Divergent and will never fit into any one group. When she discovers a conspiracy to destroy all Divergents, she must find out what makes being Divergent so dangerous before it’s too late.

James will play Four, a man with a mysterious past, who is  Tris’ intense yet charismatic instructor and one of the leaders of the Dauntless faction.

Variety adds that Miles Teller, Ray Stevenson and Aaron Eckhart are also circling roles in the movie (Teller seems set as he’s mentioned he’ll be in the movie on Twitter), but there’s no news on exactly who they might play

Neil Burger (Limitless) will direct from a script by Vanessa Taylor. It commences principal photography this April in Chicago, with a March 21st, 2014 release set.

The film is about three Manhattan friends who make a pact to remain single. The plot thickens when each friend falls in love shortly after the vow is made (wouldn’t you just know it!). Efron and Teller will be two of those friends, although at the moment there’s no word on the third.
