Warcraft: The Beginning Trailer – Into the fantasy world with Travis Fimmel & Ben Foster

November 7, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

warcraft-poster1-slideFrom the evidence of this trailer, Warcraft: The Beginning certainly looks like it’s going after Middle Earth’s fantasy crown. It definitely seems inspired by Peter Jackson’s Tokien movies while also doing a good job of feeling like it’s set in the world of the Warcraft computer game.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘The peaceful realm of Azeroth stands on the brink of war as its civilization faces a fearsome race of invaders: Orc warriors fleeing their dying home to colonize another. As a portal opens to connect the two worlds, one army faces destruction and the other faces extinction. From opposing sides, two heroes are set on a collision course that will decide the fate of their family, their people and their home.

‘So begins a spectacular saga of power and sacrifice in which war has many faces, and everyone fights for something.

‘Directed by Duncan Jones (Moon,Source Code) and written by Charles Leavitt andJones, the film starring Travis Fimmel, Paula Patton, Ben Foster, Dominic Cooper, Toby Kebbell, Ben Schnetzer, Rob Kazinsky and Daniel Wuis a Legendary Pictures, Blizzard Entertainment and Atlas Entertainment production.’

It’ll be in cinemas next June. Take a look at the trailer below.

Chloe Moretz Will Be The Little Mermaid, With Richard Curtis Writing The Script

November 7, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

chloe-moretzIn March 2014 Sofia Coppola signed up to direct a new, live-action adaptation of The Little Mermaid for Universal and Working Title. She has since moved on but the film is alive and well, with Variety reporting that Chloe Moretz will play the title role, and Richard Curtis (Four Wedding, Love Actually) will write the script.

Not much is known about the specifics of this new take on Hans Christian Andersen’s classic story, other than the bare bones of it following a mermaid who wishes to become human after falling in love with a man she saved from drowning.

The film currently has no director, and it’s believed that Universal plans to wait until Curtis has finished his pass at the screenplay before they bring one in. As a result it’s not clear when it will shoot or when it will arrive in cinemas.

New London Has Fallen Trailer – Gerard Butler is fighting to save the UK

November 6, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

london-has-fallen-trailer-slideSynopsis: The sequel to the worldwide smash hit Olympus Has Fallen begins in London, where the British Prime Minister has passed away under mysterious circumstances.

His funeral is a must-attend event for leaders of the western world. But what starts out as the most protected event on earth, turns into a deadly plot to kill the world’s most powerful leaders, devastate every known landmark in the British capital, and unleash a terrifying vision of the future.

Only three people have any hope of stopping it: the President of the United States, his formidable secret service head (Gerard Butler), and an English MI-6 agent who rightly trusts no one.

The movie is due out in UK cinemas on March 4th 2016.

New Secret in Their Eyes Trailer – Chiwetel Ejiofor & Julia Roberts are looking for a killer

November 6, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Secret-in-Their-Eyes-slideShortly after the 2009 Argentinian movie The Secret in Their Eyes won the Best Foreign Language Oscar there was a lot of talk on making an English-language version. It’s taken a while but now it’s on its way, with Chiwetel Ejiofor in the lead role, alongside Julia Roberts and Nicole Kidman.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘A tight-knit team of rising FBI investigators – Ray (Chiwetel Ejiofor) and Jess (Julia Roberts), along with their District Attorney supervisor Claire (Nicole Kidman) – is suddenly torn apart when they discover that Jess’s teenage daughter has been brutally and inexplicably murdered.

Now, thirteen years later, after obsessively searching every day for the elusive killer, Ray finally uncovers a new lead that he’s certain can permanently resolve the case, nail the vicious murderer, and bring long-desired closure to his team. No one is prepared, however, for the shocking, unspeakable secret that will reveal the enduring, destructive effects of personal vengeance on the human soul.

‘Interweaving past and present, this deeply layered mystery explores the murky boundaries between justice and revenge, and asks the question: how far would you go to right an unfathomable wrong?’

The movie’s due out later this year.

New The Hateful Eight Trailer – Quentin Tarantino traps people in a blizzard

November 6, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

hateful-eight-slideSynopsis: In THE HATEFUL EIGHT, set six or eight or twelve years after the Civil War, a stagecoach hurtles through the wintry Wyoming landscape. The passengers, bounty hunter John Ruth (Russell) and his fugitive Daisy Domergue (Leigh), race towards the town of Red Rock where Ruth, known in these parts as “The Hangman,” will bring Domergue to justice.

Along the road, they encounter two strangers: Major Marquis Warren (Jackson), a black former union soldier turned infamous bounty hunter, and Chris Mannix (Goggins), a southern renegade who claims to be the town’s new Sheriff. Losing their lead on the blizzard, Ruth, Domergue, Warren and Mannix seek refuge at Minnie’s Haberdashery, a stagecoach stopover on a mountain pass. When they arrive at Minnie’s, they are greeted not by the proprietor but by four unfamiliar faces.

Bob (Bichir), who’s taking care of Minnie’s while she’s visiting her mother, is holed up with Oswaldo Mobray (Roth), the hangman of Red Rock, cow-puncher Joe Gage (Madsen), and Confederate General Sanford Smithers (Dern). As the storm overtakes the mountainside stopover, our eight travelers come to learn they may not make it to Red Rock after all…

The movie will be in cinemas early next year.

Alice Through the Looking Glass Trailer – Back into Wonderland with Johnny Depp & Mia Wasikowska

November 5, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

alice-through-the-looking-glass-trailer-slideEven Disney was surprised when Tim Burton’s Alice In Wonderland made over a billion dollars at the box office, but it ensured a sequel quickly went into pre-production. Although its taken longer than originally planned, Alice Through The Looking Glass is now on its way, and we have the first trailer to prove it.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘In Disney’s “Alice Through the Looking Glass,” an all-new spectacular adventure featuring the unforgettable characters from Lewis Carroll’s beloved stories, Alice returns to the whimsical world of Underland and travels back in time to save the Mad Hatter. Directed by James Bobin, who brings his own unique vision to the spectacular world Tim Burton created on screen in 2010 with “Alice in Wonderland,” the film is written by Linda Woolverton based on characters created by Lewis Carroll and produced by Joe Roth, Suzanne Todd and Jennifer Todd and Tim Burton with John G. Scotti serving as executive producer.

‘“Alice Through the Looking Glass” reunites the all-star cast from the worldwide blockbuster phenomenon, including: Johnny Depp, Anne Hathaway, Mia Wasikowska and Helena Bonham Carter along with the voices of Alan Rickman, Stephen Fry, Michael Sheen and Timothy Spall. We are also introduced to several new characters: Zanik Hightopp (Rhys Ifans), the Mad Hatter’s father and Time himself (Sacha Baron Cohen), a peculiar creature who is part human, part clock.

‘Alice Kingsleigh (Wasikowska) has spent the past few years following in her father’s footsteps and sailing the high seas. Upon her return to London, she comes across a magical looking glass and returns to the fantastical realm of Underland and her friends the White Rabbit (Sheen), Absolem (Rickman), the Cheshire Cat (Fry) and the Mad Hatter (Depp), who is not himself. The Hatter has lost his Muchness, so Mirana (Hathaway) sends Alice on a quest to borrow the Chronosphere, a metallic globe inside the chamber of the Grand Clock which powers all time. Returning to the past, she comes across friends – and enemies – at different points in their lives, and embarks on a perilous race to save the Hatter before time runs out. Presented in Digital 3D™, Real D 3D and IMAX® 3D, Disney’s “Alice Through the Looking Glass” opens in UK cinemas on May 27, 2016.’ [Read more…]

First Pics Of Eddie Redmayne In JK Rowling’s Fantastic Beasts & Where To Find Them

November 5, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

fantastic-beasts-logoWhen I saw the final Harry Potter movie at the cinema, at the end a guy behind me, who was probably about 20, said, “Well, that’s the end of my childhood.” It was one of the most oddly poignant remarks I’ve ever heard, as to an extent he was right – something he had grown up was coming to an end just as he himself was becoming an adult.

However, it turns out it’s not 100% over, as JK Rowling is taking us back into her Wizarding World by writing the script for Fantastic Beasts & Where To Find Them (plus, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is heading to the London stage). The first images from the movie have now arrived, which you can see below.

Set about 80 years before the Potter stories, the film stars Eddie Redmayne as world-famous magizoologist Newt Scamander, who embarks on an adventure in 1926 New York. Not too much is known about the exact plot, although EW remarks that the briefcase seen in the pic is somehow ‘pivotal’, and that in their cover image sees Scamander standing in front of the Magical Congress of the United States of America (MACUSA), the American equivalent of the Ministry of Magic.

Potter helmer David Yates is back in the director’s chair, with the film due out November 2016. [Read more…]

13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers Of Benghazi Trailer & Poster – Michael Bay takes on dramatic real-life events

November 4, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

13-Hours-uk-poster-slideMany people still aren’t sure that action-kingpin Michael Bay is the best man to take on the real-life events that took place in Benghazi and resulted in the death of the US ambassador. However, he’ll be hoping to prove naysayers wrong with 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers Of Benghazi.

The film, which stars John Krasinski, Dominic Fumusa, James Badge Dale, Max Martini and Pablo Schreiber, now has a new trailer and poster , which you can watch below.

The movie is based on Mitchell Zuckoff’s book, which centres on six members of a security team. After the facility came under attack from militants angered about the recently release of a trailer for an Islam-bashing film called ‘Innocence Of Muslims’ and the anniversary of 9/11. The team fought to defend the lives of the Americans in the compound, although the attack claimed the life of US Ambassador Christopher J. Stevens and a foreign service worker, while two contract workers died in a second attack at a nearby CIA facility.

It’ll be in UK cinemas on January 29th.
