Take Your First Look At Kenneth Branagh’s Star-Studded Murder On The Orient Express

May 3, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

While Kenneth Branagh was putting together his new filmic take on Agatha Christie’s classic Murder On The Orient Express, quite a few big-name stars came and went, including Angelina Jolie. However, he ended up with quite a cast, including Johnny Depp, Daisy Ridley, Michelle Pfeiffer, Penelope Cruz, Josh Gad, Willem Dafoe, Judi Dench, Olivia Colman, Derek Jacobi, Leslie Odom Jr., and Branagh himself and the famed Belgian detective, Hercule Poirot.

Now we’ve got out first look at the movie, via EW, which suggests plenty of 1930s glamour, while Branagh and his impressive facial hair suggest a more hard-nosed version of Poirot than we’re used to.

Christie’s novel is about a death on the world’s most famous train, when a man known as Mr. Ratchett is stabbed 12 times and killed. Hercule Poirot, who happens to be travelling on the Orient Express, starts to investigate, discovering that many people could be the culprit – which is where all the new movie’s other famous faces come in.

The movie is due out in November. Take a look at the first pics below. [Read more…]

The Counselor Teaser – Brief look at Michael Fassbender & Brad Pitt in Ridley Scott’s movie

June 26, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


The Counselor isn’t out until October, but it seems Fox wants us all to be impressed by its style and pedigree, so they’ve released a short teaser showing off the star names both in front of and behind the camera.

Directed by Ridley Scott from a script by Cormac McCarthy, the film stars Michael Fassbender, Penélope Cruz, Cameron Diaz, Javier Bardem, Brad Pitt and John Leguizamo.

The movie tells the story of a lawyer (Fassbender), who finds himself in over his head when he gets involved in drug trafficking. And as this teaser shows, it’s all going to be looking extremely slick (and with pet cheetahs, which is a bonus). [Read more…]

I’m So Excited (Cinema)

May 2, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Starring: Antonio Banderas, Penelope Cruz, Antonio de la Torre, Hugo Silva, Guillermo Toledo
Director: Pedro Almodovar
Running Time: 90 mins
Certificate: 15
Release Date: May 3rd 2013

Just when Pedro Almodovar earned himself a new audience with the brilliantly bonkers Skin I Live In, he follows it up with a film that at best can be described Almodovar-lite. It’s charming enough and at times well-acted, but ultimately too paper-thin to be remembered along with his great works.

If he is the high priest of camp then it was only a matter of time before he made a film set on a plane, with three stewards as his main characters. And very funny they are, although their constant bitching and fussing about who is bisexual and who has slept with who gets tiresome over the 90 long minutes. Even their singing of the title song by the Pointer Sisters wears a bit thin after 30 seconds. [Read more…]

Camp New UK Trailer For Pedro Almodovar’s I’m So Excited Lands

March 2, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


Pedro Almodovar returns soon with I’m So Exited, which looks like it’s going to be his gayest and campest movie in a very long time. Now Total Film has debuted a new UK trailer for the movie, which shows us plenty of very gay aeroplane shenanigans, as well as Penelope Cruz and Antonio Banderas’ working on the ground for their cameo appearances.

The film is about the passengers and crew of a seemingly doomed passenger plane as panic overtakes the aircraft. The film features Javier Camara, Cecilia Roth, Lola Duenas, Raul Arevalo, Carlos Areces, Antonio de la Torre, Hugo Silva, along with ‘special collaborations’ with Penelope Cruz, Antonio Banderas and Paz Vega.

A UK release date of May 3rd is currently set, with the US getting it in June.

Twice Born Trailer – Penelope Cruz & Emile Hirsch head to Sarajevo

September 6, 2012 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


Twice Born is set to debut at the Toronto Film Festival, but before then a trailer has arrrived, which doesn’t exactly tell us much about the plot, but does give us a film for the movie’s imagery. Penelope Cruz plays single mother Gemma who returns with her teen son to present-day Sarajevo where her son’s father (Emile Hirsch) died during the Bosnian conflict of the 1990s. The movie is directed by Sergio Castellitto based on a novel by Margaret Mazzantini.

Penelope Cruz Eyes Ridley Scott’s The Counselor

April 20, 2012 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

The moment Cormac McCarthy sold his first screenplay, The Counselor, it was clear there was gonna be a lot of high profile interest in it, especially after Ridley Scott signed up to direct. In the last few weeks they’ve been putting together a great cast, with the latest news being that Penelope Cruz is eyeing a key role in the film. THR says that an official offer hasn’t been made yet, although one is expected very soon.

Michael Fassbender, Brad Pitt, and the Cruz’s husband, Javier Bardem, are already signed up, and while Angelina Jolie may still join them, it’s looking like scheduling issues with Malifecent may prevent it.

The story follows a down and out lawyer (Fassbender) in a Mexican border town, who tries his hand in the drug trade when he has cash flow issues. The attorney teams up with a wealthy acquaintance (Javier Bardem) and a shady businessman (Brad Pitt) to get their cocaine trafficking enterprise off the ground. Cruz would play the lawyer’s love interest.

To Rome With Love Trailer

April 4, 2012 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

After the wonderful Midnight In Paris last year, it’s fingers crossed that Woody Allen can continue his winning streak while simultaneously continuing his European tour, this time heading to Italy for To Rome With Love. The trailer doesn’t exactly make the plot clear, although it will follow a number of people in Italy, some American, some Italian, some residents, some visitors, and the romances and adventures and predicaments they get into. Woody stars alongside Ellen Page, Jesse Eisenberg, Penelope Cruz, Alex Baldwin and Roberto Benigni. No UK release is currently set, but it’ll be out later this year.
