Anna Kendrick, Rebel Wilson & The Other Pitch Perfect 2 Girls Get A Poster

November 19, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

pitch-perfect-2-poster1Nobody expected Pitch Perfect to become the success it was, but as soon as it hit box office success Universal realised they had real potential so they put a sequel into the works and have even built into that the ability to continue the franchise after that with a new cast.

Pitch Perfect 2 is due to arrive next May, and now the first poster for the movie has arrived, which you can see below, along with Anna Kendrick, Rebel Wilson and Brittany Snow, which is below.

Elizabeth Banks, Anna Camp, Skylar Astin, Ben Platt and Adam DeVine also reprise their roles from Pitch Perfect, with Hailee Steinfeld coming on board as a new character who’s being set up as a potential lead for future sequels.

And as well as starring Elizabeth Banks is also making her directorial debut with the movie. [Read more…]

New Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb Trailer – Dan Stevens & Rebel Wilson join Ben Stiller

November 12, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

night-at-the-museum-secret-of-the-tomb-posterFor Night At The Museum: Secret Of The Tomb, Ben Stiller, Robin Williams, Owen Wilson, Steve Coogan and Rami Malek are back, along with franchise newcomers like a very suave looking Dan Stevens as Sir Lancelot and Rebel Wilson as a British security guard in a nifty hat.

For this third instalment the action moves to London, with Stiller’s Larry Page and the museum exhibits looking for a way to save the artefact that allows the inanimate to come to life at night. Perhaps they’ll manage to find a point in bringing things to the UK in the actual film, but it comes across as a little pointless in the trailer – even if the Trafalgar Square lions do come to life.

Take a look at the new full trailer below. The movie will be in cinemas at Christmas. [Read more…]

Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb Trailer – Ben Stiller is joined by Dan Stevens & Rebel Wilson

July 30, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

night-at-the-museum-3-slideAfter the first images were released yesterday, it’s time for the trailer for Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb.

As you can see the likes of Ben Stiller, Robin Williams, Owen Wilson, Steve Coogan and Rami Malek are back, along with franchise newcomers like a very suave looking Dan Stevens as Sir Lancelot and Rebel Wilson as a British security guard in a nifty hat.

To be honest, there is a slight sense of laziness this time around, where the action moves to London, with Stiller’s Larry Page and the museum exhibits looking for a way to save the artefact that allows the inanimate to come to life at night. Perhaps they’ll manage to find a point in bringing things to the UK in the actual film, but it comes across as a little pointless in the trailer – even if the Trafalgar Square lions do come to life.

Skylar Astin & Ben Platt Are Coming Back For Pitch Perfect 2

May 22, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

skylar-astinFor a while now we’ve known that nearly all the Pitch Perfect ladies would return for the sequels, but while Skylar Astin has suggested he’d return, it’s only now that he’s signed on to reprise his role as Jesse Pitch Perfect 2, according to Deadline.

He’s not the only one either, as Ben Platt – who plays Benji – has tweeted a picture from the set showing he’s back too. And who’s he got with him? Well, Skylar Astin of course. You can see that pic below.

Anna Kendrick, Rebel Wilson, Brittany Snow, Elizabeth Banks, Anna Camp and Adam DeVine reprise their roles from Pitch Perfect, with Hailee Steinfeld coming on board as a new character who’s being set up as a potential lead for future sequels.

And the reason they’ll need a new lead is that it’s believed this film will follow Kendrick and Wilson’s characters through to their graduation.

Elizabeth Banks is directing from a script by Kay Cannon. Pitch Perfect 2 is due out May 2015.

What better way to spend my first day on set for #PitchPerfect2 than by doing a scene with my roomie @SkylarAstin. pic.twitter.com/WM9yH7y0qh

Rebel Wilson Gives Us A Fresh Look At Anna Kendrick & The Pitch Perfect 2 Ladies

May 17, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

pitch-perfect-2-cast-photo2It seems Rebel Wilson is keen to keep us up to date with happening with Pitch Perfect 2 as a couple of weeks ago she released a pic of the first day of rehearsals, and now we get a new look at the Barden Bellas.

The first pic was missing one key fixture – Anna Kendrick – but she lined up for this one, along with the likes of Brittany Snow, Elizabeth Banks, Ester Dean, Kelley Jakle, Alexis Knapp, Chrissie Fit, Hana Mae Lee and newcomer Hailee Steinfeld.

Plot details are still a little thin on the ground, but its believed the film will follow Rebel Wilson and Anna Kendrick’s Beca and Fat Amy through to their university graduation. Steinfeld is playing a new character who could become the lead is a third Pitch Perfect movie is ever made.

Elizabeth Banks is directing, with a May 2015 release date set.

Rebel Wilson Up For Private Benjamin Remake

May 7, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

rebel-wilsonIt’s not the first time we’ve heard the idea of remaking the 1980 hit comedy Private Benjamin, but this time it’s got a star, as Variety reports that Rebel Wilson has signed up for the movie.

The original starred Goldie Hawn as a ‘woman who joins the U.S. Army after her new husband, played by Albert Brooks, dies on their wedding night during sex.

‘Wilson will portray a redneck who enlists in the Marines to get out of a tough situation.’

The 1980s was a major hit at the time, cementing Hawn’s status on the a-list, and this could do the same for Wilson, especially as it would appear to be the perfect star vehicle for her.

Hailee Steinfeld Joins Anna Kendrick & Rebel Wilson In Pitch Perfect 2

April 30, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

hailee-steinfeld-pitch-perfect2A few days ago the ladies of Pitch Perfect 2 posed for a picture marking the first day of rehearsals. However at the time, casting-wise we’d only heard that nearly all the cast of the first film would be back for the follow-up.

However now Variety reports there’s a newbie, as Hailee Steinfeld (Rome & Juliet, True Grit) has signed up for the film. Universal confirmed that shortly afterwards with the picture featured to the right.

Plot details are still thin on the ground, but its believed the film will follow Rebel Wilson and Anna Kendrick’s Beca and Fat Amy through to their university graduation. If that’s true it would suggest they wouldn’t be around for a potential third movie, but Universal has reportedly brought in Steinfeld with an eye to her taking over the franchise if Pitch Perfect 2 does as well as the first film.

Filming kicks off soon with Elizabeth Banks directing. A May 2015 release date has already been set.

Anna Kendrick & Rebel Wilson Confirmed For Pitch Perfect 2

February 7, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

pitch-perfect-review-slide
When it was announced a couple of weeks ago that Elizabeth Banks was set to make her directorial debut with Pitch Perfect 2, it was suggested the likes of Anna Kendrick and Rebel Wilson were likely to returns. However at the time no deals were in place. Now that’s changed, as it’s been announced both actresses will be back for another round of a capella singing, according to THR.

It still isn’t known if other Pitch Perfect stars, such as Skylar Astin, Ben Platt, Brittany Snow, Anna Camp or Alexis Knapp, will be coming returning. No story details have been revealed either.

The first film was a surprise success, earning $113 million worldwide from a $17 million budget, and taking in over $135 million from Blu-ray and DVD sales. Even the soundtrack, which featured Anna Kendrick’s triple-platinum single ‘Cups’, sold over 1 million units.

It’s not clear when the sequel will shoot, although Universal plans to have Pitch Perfect 2 in cinemas in 2015.

Elizabeth Banks To Direct Pitch Perfect 2

January 27, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

elizabeth-banksPitch Perfect was proof that you don’t always need an original plot if you can make a familiar story incredibly funny and heartwarming. What many don’t realise is that Elizabeth Banks didn’t just have a small role in the movie, she also helped originate the idea for it and produced the film.

Now a sequel has officially been announced, and Banks is moving up into the director’s chair for it, according to THR. It will be her feature directorial debut – and if she can bring half the wit she does to her acting, we should be in for a treat.

As the first film was originally seen as a one-off – few expected it to gross over $100 million around the world – none of the original cast were signed for a sequel. However as most of them have publicly stated they’d love to make a follow-up, the likes of Anna Kendrick, Rebel Wilson and Skylar Astin are expected to return.

There’s no news on what direction the movie might take, although expect a lot more a capella singing.

Personally we’re voting for a bigger role for Freddie Stroma’s abs, which were certainly a high point of the first movie. And if you don’t believe us, take a look below.
