Garrett Hedlund & Olivia Wide Confirmed For Tron 3

April 7, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

tron-legacy-olivia-wilde-garrett-hudlundA couple of year ago Disney had massive plans to build a huge Tron franchise, but when Tron: Legacy failed to live up to expectations at the box office many thought that would be the end of all the extensive multimedia plans. However now a third movie is coming, with Joseph Kosinski once more directing.

While it’s seemed certain for a while that Garrett Hedlund would return, that’s now been confirmed and THR adds that Olivia Wilde will be back as Quorra.

Interestingly while all this info is out there, Disney still hasn’t officially announced the movie, even though numerous reports over the past few months have said it’s gearing up to shoot later this year.

There are no story details either, although Kosinski has previously suggested he wanted a third film to expand on and explore some ideas of Legacy, particularly the final minutes.

The Lazarus Effect Trailer – Olivia Wilde is back from the dead alongside Evans Peters & Mark Duplass

January 7, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

lazarus-effect-olivia-wildeThe plot for The Lazarus Effect sounds a bit like a rehash of Flatliners, but the first trailer thankfully shows that while there are echoes of Joel Schumacher’s 1990 movie, it does want to be something in its own right too.

The very short synopsis simply says ‘The film follows a group of medical students who discover a way to bring dead patients back to life.’

The movie centres around Mark Duplass and Olivia Wilde, who discover how to resurrect people. After she dies, he decides to use the technique on her, but as you’d expect in a horror movie what returns isn’t quite the same as what left.

Evan Peters and Donald Glover also star in the movie, which is out in the US at the end of February, although it’s not clear when it’ll arrive in the UK. [Read more…]

Third Person Trailer – Fresh look at James Franco, Mila Kunis, Olivia Wilde & Liam Neeson in Paul Haggis’ star-studded tale

April 16, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


Paul Haggis won an Oscar for his multi-stranded tale Crash (although many people think he shouldn’t have). Now he’s back in ensemble movie mode for Third Person, which tells three stories set in Rome, Paris, and New York, set at different times in couples’ relationships.

The star-studded cast includes James Franco, Mila Kunis, Olivia Wilde, Liam Neeson, Kim Basinger, Adrien Brody, Maria Bello and Moran Atias.

Neeson plays a man who leaves his wife to go live with the much younger Olivia Wilde, Franco and Kunis are a former couple who can’t stop warring over custody of their son, while Adrien Brody is involved with a woman whose child has ended up in the hands of people traffickers.

It’s certainly sounds like there’s plenty of drama (and Crash haters will probably already be cringing). The movie hits the US in June, but it’s not clear when it will come to the UK. [Read more…]

Rush (Blu-ray)

January 26, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Starring: Chris Hemsworth, Daniel Bruhl, Olivia Wilde, Alexandra Maria Lara, Pierfrancesco Favino
Director: Ron Howard
Running Time: 122 mins
Certificate: 15
Release Date: January 27th 2014

There were quite a few people who were expecting Rush to get a few Oscar nominations, but in the end it was shut out. It’s a shame as it’s a damn fine movie and should have got some kudos, even if it was only in the production design and cinematography departments, as it does such a great job of recreating 1970s Formula 1 racing.

The film tells the true story of the intense rivalry between the British James Hunt (Chris Hemsworth) and Austria’s Niki Lauda (Daniel Bruhl). They first meet in Formula 3, where it’s clear they are very different people. Hunt is a playboy whose life is about sex, drugs, partying and being everyone’s friend.  Lauda meanwhile is far more serious, seeing racing as being about business. He spends his time learning the mechanics of the cars, as well as showing off an arrogant streak that ensures none of the other drivers like him that much. [Read more…]

Better Living Through Chemistry Trailer – Sam Rockwell & Olivia Wilde get into sex and drugs

January 22, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


After being in development for a long time and seeing the likes of Jeremy Renner and Jennifer Garner coming and going from the project, Better Living Through Chemistry is now preparing for its March US release with Sam Rockwell and Olivia Wilde starring.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘A straight-laced pharmacist’s uneventful life spirals out of control when he starts an affair with a trophy wife customer who takes him on a joyride involving sex, drugs and possibly murder.’

Geoff Moore and David Posamentier write and direct the film. Ray Liotta, Michelle Monaghan and Jane Fonda also star. [Read more…]

New Rush Trailer – More F1 action with Chris Hemsworth & Daniel Bruhl

July 18, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


There haven’t been that many movies about F1, partly because it’s not that popular in the US and so the rather myopic people in Hollywood don’t see it as a good box office bet.  They’ll make Nascar movies, despite the fact 90% of the world’s population knows nothing about that, but generally ignore the biggest motorsport competition in the world.

However Rush is bucking that trend, with Ron Howard directing and Chris Hemsworth and Daniel Bruhl set to star. Now we can get a fresh look at the film with a new trailer.

Set in the 1970s, Hemsworth plays James Hunt with Bruhl as Niki Lauda. Hunt was a dashing playboy with a wild social life, whose exploits off the track filled more column inches than what he did while racing. Lauda meanwhile was a quieter figure, but still an amazing and driven racer. Their rivalry became legendary.

Olivia Wilde, Natalie Dormer and Alexandra Maria Lara also star, with the film set for release in September. [Read more…]

Donald Glover & Evan Peters Are Reawakening, Alongside Mark Duplass & Olivia Wilde

June 12, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

evan-petersCommunity’s Donald Glover and American Horror Story’s Evan Peters have signed up to star in Reawakening for director David Gelb (a few months about the directorial quartet Radio Silence (V/H/S) were in talks to helm, but they are no longer involved).

The film, based on Luke Dawson’s script, is about a group of students who find a way to bring the dead back to life. As you might expect, they soon discover that there are dire consequences to those actions (these sort of things never go well in the movies, do they?). Donald Glover and Evan Peters will play members of this research team, alongside the previously-attached Mark Duplass and Olivia Wilde.

Jason Blum is producing through his Blumhouse Studios company, with Lionsgate’s Erik Feig and John Sacchi overseeing the project for the studio. (Source: TheWrap)

Olivia Wilde & Mark Duplass Get A Reawakening

May 14, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

olivia-wildeOlivia Wilde and Mark Duplass will be bringing the dead back to life in the new thriller Reawakening, with Jiro Dreams of Sushi documentary helmer David Gelb set to direct, according to THR.

The movie is about a research team who’ve created a serum that can bring the dead back to life. When the lead doctor’s daughter dies, she is given the serum. As you might expect, things don’t exactly go to plan. and it leads to something less than ideal.

Luke Dawson and Jeremy Slater came up with the script, which certainly has a decent enough premise, although it is one that could be as dreadful as it could be good, depending on the execution.

Deadfall (Cinema)

May 10, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Starring: Eric Bana, Olivia Wilde, Charlie Hunnam, Sissy Spacek, Kris Kristofferson
Director: Stefan Ruzowitsky
Running Time: 95 mins
Certificate: 15
Release Date: May 10th 2013

Deadfall comes to us from Best Foreign Language Oscar winner Stefan Ruzowitsky (The Counterfeiters) and has an excellent cast of many well established actors and up and coming stars.

It’s about two siblings, Addison and Liza (played by Eric Bana and Olivia Wilde respectively), who are on the run from a casino heist. The two are then involved in a car accident leaving one officer dead. They end up stranded in the snowy mountainous terrain of North Michigan. Bana, being the protective brother, advises them to split-up, as police only have him as a suspect [Read more…]

People Like Us (DVD)

March 4, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Starring: Chris Pine, Elizabeth Banks, Olivia Wilde, Michael Hall D’Addario, Michelle Pfeiffer
Director: Alex Kurtzman
Running Time: 109 mins
Certificate: 12
Release Date: March 4th 2013

Alex Kurtzman is best known for writing (alongside Roberto Orci) Mission: Impossible III, the Transformers movies, Star Trek and Cowboys & Aliens. You might expect then that for his first directorial outing he’d go for something bombastic and action-packed, but instead he’s dusted off an old screenplay he wrote with Orci and Jody Lambert, which is far more character drama than action spectacular.
