Jason Sudeikis May Go On A Heist With Zach Galifianakis & Owen Wilson

June 25, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Jason-SudeikisIt’s got a great cast even if it doesn’t have a name. The untitled film previously called Loomis Fargo already has Zach Galifianakis, Owen Wilson and Kristen Wiig attached to star, and now they may be joined by Jason Sudeikis, who is in talks to star.

The movie is loosely based on a true story about an armoured truck driver (Galifianakis) who is convinced to help participate in a $17 million robbery. However his partners are quick to turn on him once the job is done and leave him stranded in Mexico while they go off to live the high life. Then it’s time to settle the score.

Wilson is set to play the leader of the half-baked criminal, while Wiig will be Galifianakis’ love interest. It’s not clear who Sudeikis will be.

Assuming he signs on the dotted line, Jason will be on the film’s set when it starts shooting in July, with Jared Hess directing. (Source: Variety)

Birdman Trailer – Michael Keaton discovers life after superheroes

June 13, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

birdman-posterMichael Keaton had huge success as Batman in the late 80s and early 90s, and now he’s kind of returning to the superhero fold, playing an actor best known for playing a famed comic book figure in Birdman.

The Alejandro González Iñárritu movie also stars Emma Stone, Edward Norton, Naomi Watts, Amy Ryan and Zach Galifianakis, and from the evidence of this first trailer, it’s gonna be a good one.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘BIRDMAN or The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance is a black comedy that tells the story of an actor (Michael Keaton) – famous for portraying an iconic superhero – as he struggles to mount a Broadway play. In the days leading up to opening night, he battles his ego and attempts to recover his family, his career, and himself.’

The movie is out this autumn. [Read more…]

Are You Here Trailer – Owen Wilson & Zach Galifianakis want an inheritance

June 6, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


With Mad Men coming to an end, creator Matt Weiner is eying the big screen. His feature debut is out this summer, Are We Here, and now the trailer is here.

Weiner has lined up Owen Wilson, Zach Galifianakis, and Amy Poehler to star in the film. There have been some troubles for the movie though, as the reviews from TIFF were pretty awful. Apparently it’s been significantly re-edited since then, but it’s not known whether that has helped sort out the problems.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘When his off-the-grid best buddy Ben Baker inherits his estranged father’s fortune, womanizing local weatherman Steve Dallas joins forces with him to battle the legal challenge brought by Ben’s formidable sister.’ [Read more…]

Will Ferrell & Zach Galifianakis Will Share Larry’s Kidney For Director Richard Linklater

May 17, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

zach-galifianakisWill Ferrell and Zach Galifianakis seemed to be have a good time making The Campaign, and now they’re planning to work together again as TheWrap reports they are reuniting for Larry’s Kidney, with Richard Linklater directing.

Based on Daniel Asa Rose’s memoir, Ferrell will play Rose (Will Ferrell), who travels to China with his slightly odd cousin (Galifianakis) and his mail-order bride, in the hope that they can get hold of a black market human kidney that will save his life.

It’s not clear when it will shoot, but it appears Hollywood is particularly interested in the story’s Chinese angle. China is the fastest growing movie market in the world, and while numerous blockbusters have tried to include some Chinese interest, it’s less common for a comedy. The studios will be interested to see whether it works.

Zach Galifianakis & Jon Hamm Are Keeping Up With The Joneses

March 16, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

jon-hammJon Hamm didn’t get to show off his comedy skills much in Mad Men, but he can be a very funny man. He’s hoping to show that off as THR reports that Hamm and Zach Galifianakis are in negotiations to team up for Keeping Up With the Joneses.

Greg Mottola (Paul, Adventureland) is set to direct the comedy, which is about a type-A couple who move into a peaceful suburban neighbourhood. However as so often in these types of movie, thing don’t quite turn out as they’d hoped, as they discover that their seemingly-perfect neighbours are actually covert agents.

Walter F. Parkes and Laurie McDonald are producing, after developing the project for the past two years. It’s not clear when it will shoot, although Jon Hamm has plenty of time to fit it into his schedule as he’s recently finished filming the final season of Mad Men.

Julianne Moore & Zach Galifianakis Join Ellen Page In The Gay Right Drama Freeheld

February 14, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Julianne-MooreFor a very long time, Ellen Page has been attached to Freeheld, but it’s been held up while they try to finalise funding and get it ready for the cameras. Hopefully though now it’s moving forwards, as Julianne Moore and Zach Galifianakis have both joined the film.

The movie is based on a 2007 documentary of the same name, about a landmark LGBT equality case, which won the Oscar for documentary short.

Page is set to play mechanic Stacie Andree, who was denied the pension benefits of her longtime partner and New Jersey police detective Laurel Hester (Julianne Moore), when the latter became terminally ill. While Hester’s detective partner Dane Wells was conservative and initially surprised to learn of Hester’s sexual orientation, he stepped up to become the leader in the fight for Laurel’s rights to assign her benefits to Andree. The person playing Wells is yet to be cast.

Galifianakis is set to be Steven Goldstein, a Garden State Equality activist who played an important role in the case.

Philadephia screenwrite Ron Nyswaner has come up with the script, while Peter Sollett (Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist) will direct. The current plan is to shoot this summer.

Zach Galifianakis Is Going On A Heist With Owen Wilson

December 3, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

zach-galifianakisFor a while Owen Wilson and Jim Carrey had been planning to team up for Loomis Fargo, but now the film has lost its title and one of the stars, as Carrey has been forced out due to scheduling problems. However his replacement is already being lined up as TheWrap says Zach Galifianakis is close to signing on.

Loosely based on a true story, the movie follows an armoured truck driver (Galifianakis) who is convinced to help participate in a $17 million robbery, but his partners are quick to turn on him once the job is done and leave him stranded in Mexico while they go off to live the high life. Then it’s time to settle the score.

Jared Hess is set to direct the action comedy, working from a script originated by Emily Spivey and more recently re-written by Chris Bowman and Hubbel Palmer. Hopefully it’ll also get a new title soon.

The Hangover Part III Red-Band Trailer – The boys are back and as rude as ever

May 17, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


Next week The Hangover trilogy comes to an end with The Hangover Part III, which sees the Wolf Pack back in Las Vegas. To ensure fans are excited, a new red band trailer has been released.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘It’s been two years. Phil (Bradley Cooper), Stu (Ed Helms) and Doug (Justin Bartha) are happily living uneventful lives at home. Tattoos have been lasered off, files purged. The last they heard from disaster-magnet Leslie Chow (Ken Jeong), he’d been tossed into a Thai prison and, with him out of the way, the guys have very nearly recovered from their nights prowling the seamy side of Las Vegas in a roofie’d haze, and being kidnapped, shot at, and chased by drug- dealing mobsters in Bangkok.

‘The only member of the Wolfpack who’s not content is Alan (Zach Galifianakis). Still lacking a sense of purpose, the group’s black sheep has ditched his meds and given in to his natural impulses in a big way-which, for Alan, means no boundaries, no filters and no judgment-until a personal crisis forces him to finally seek the help he needs.

‘And who better than his three best friends to make sure he takes the first step. This time, there’s no bachelor party. No wedding. What could possibly go wrong? But when the Wolfpack hits the road, all bets are off. One way or another…it all ends here.’

It opens May 23rd.

However it then breaks into a Spring Break Anthem where all the guys decide to marry one another!
