Joe Manganiello & Kevin Nash Get Their Shirtless Magic Mike XXL Posters

April 27, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

joe-manganiello-magic-mike-xxl-posterOver the past couple of weeks Magic Mike XXL has been serving up a bevy of shirtless guys, which should help ensure that certain parts of our anatomy are extremely keen to see the return of the male strippers this summer.

We’ve already head Channing Tatum, Adam Rodriguez, Matt Bomer and tWitch, and now it’s time for the Joe Manganiello’s Big Dick Richie and Kevin Nash’s Tarzan, which you can take a look at above and below.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘“Magic Mike” stars Channing Tatum, Matt Bomer, Joe Manganiello, Kevin Nash, Adam Rodriguez and Gabriel Iglesias are reuniting for the hotly anticipated sequel “Magic Mike XXL”. Joining the returning cast, in brand new roles, will be Elizabeth Banks (“The Hunger Games” franchise), Donald Glover (“Community”), Amber Heard (“The Rum Diary”), Andie MacDowell (“Footloose”), Jada Pinkett Smith (“Gotham”) and Michael Strahan (“Live with Kelly and Michael”).

‘The new film will be directed and produced by Emmy Award winner Gregory Jacobs (“Behind the Candelabra”), who served as a producer on “Magic Mike,” as well as numerous features in a long-running collaboration with Steven Soderbergh. “Magic Mike XXL” also reunites “Magic Mike” producers Nick Wechsler, Channing Tatum and Reid Carolin, with a screenplay by Carolin. Steven Soderbergh, who directed the first film, will executive produce.

‘Picking up the story three years after Mike bowed out of the stripper life at the top of his game, “Magic Mike XXL” finds the remaining Kings of Tampa likewise ready to throw in the towel. But they want to do it their way: burning down the house in one last blow-out performance in Myrtle Beach, and with legendary headliner Magic Mike sharing the spotlight with them. On the road to their final show, with whistle stops in Jacksonville and Savannah to renew old acquaintances and make new friends, Mike and the guys learn some new moves and shake off the past in surprising ways.’

It’ll be in cinemas in July.

ted-2-red-band-trailer-picThis summer the foul-mouthed talking bear Ted is returning to cinemas and it looks like he’s going to be as rude as ever, if this new red band trailer is anything to go by.

Chocolate City Trailer – Magic Mike & co. aren’t film’s only male strippers

April 25, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

chocolate-city-poster-slideMaybe it’ll be the summer of male strippers on screen. Magic Mike XXL hits cinemas in July, and there’s also Chocolate City, which will be released on the big screen and VoD on May 22nd in the US.

The latter movie follows a group of African American male strippers and has a great cast including Michael Jai White, Tyson Beckford, Vivica A. Fox, Carmen Electra and Robert Ri’chard.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Welcome to Chocolate City, where the music is hot, the mood is magical, and the exotic male dancers are simply delicious. Women go wild as these toned, talented men make fantasies come true… and the arrival of a young, new exotic dancer (Robert Ri’chard) has the spot sizzling like never before. At home, he is Michael, an inner city college student struggling to help his mother (Vivica A. Fox) make ends meet. However, when his part-time job doesn’t pay the bills, Michael begins to find success at a nightclub dancing as “Sexy Chocolate.” As the money starts rolling in, Michael must deal with the unexpected pressure of being the female clubgoers’ favorite flavor while hiding his new “job” from his mother and girlfriend. Co-starring Tyson Beckford and Michael Jai White, Chocolate City is a steamy, fun ride that has all the right moves.’

Take a look at the trailer below. [Read more…]

The Visit Trailer – Plus a poster for M. Night Shyamalan’s movie

April 25, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

The-Visit-posterM. Night Shyamalan isn’t quite the name he was in the years after The Sixth Sense, but he’s still one of the few writer/directors who you can sell a film on the strength of their name. That certainly seems true of The Visit, which wants to suggest it’ll take us back to the world of twisty-turny thrillers he’s known for.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Writer/director/producer M. Night Shyamalan (The Sixth Sense, Signs, Unbreakable) and producer Jason Blum (Paranormal Activity, The Purge and Insidious series) welcome you to Universal Pictures’ The Visit. Shyamalan returns to his roots with the terrifying story of a brother and sister who are sent to their grandparents’ remote Pennsylvania farm for a weeklong trip. Once the children discover that the elderly couple is involved in something deeply disturbing, they see their chances of getting back home are growing smaller every day.’

Now the first poster and trailer have arrived, which you can see above and below. It’ll be out in UK cinemas September 11th. [Read more…]

First Pics Of Daniel Radcliffe & James McAvoy On The Victor Frankenstein Set

April 25, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

victor-frankenstein-pic1Over two years ago Daniel Radcliffe signed on to be the Igor in a new Frankenstein movie, and it was July 2013 when James Mcavoy joined him as the infamous mad scientist. It’s taken a while to get things together but now the movie is heading towards a September UK release, and Empire has posted the first images from the set of the film.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘James McAvoy is Victor Von Frankenstein and Daniel Radcliffe stars as Igor in a unique, never-before-seen twist on Mary Shelley’s classic 19th century novel. Told from Igor’s perspective, we see the troubled young assistant’s dark origins, his redemptive friendship with the young medical student Victor Von Frankenstein, and become eyewitnesses to the emergence of how Frankenstein became the man—and the legend—we know today.’

McAvoy comments, “As much as the monster is his creation, Igor is his creation as well. That was quite exciting. It’s funny, the script, but also really dark, in a cool way.”

It’s an interesting idea and it’ll be interesting to see if it works. As it has a script by Max Landis (Chronicle), hopefully it will.

First Official Look At Jared Leto’s Crazy Suicide Squad Joker

April 25, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

jared-leto-jokerA week or so ago we had a halfway look at Jared Leto’s as The Joker, but now we’ve got the first proper look, as director David Ayer has a released a pic showing a shrieking Leto with green hair, pale skin, rotten teeth and lots of tattoos.

Jared is playing the iconic villain in Suicide Squad which revolves around an array of supervillains, who have all been captured but are offered the chance for redemption by taking on a mission from which none of them are expected to return alive.

Alongside Leto there’s Will Smith (Deadshot), Margot Robbie (Harley Quinn), Jared Leto (The Joker), Jai Courtney (Boomerang), Cara Delevingne (Enchantress), Joel Kinnaman (Rick Flagg) and Viola Davis (Amanda Waller).

David Ayer is set to direct, with an August 5th, 2016 release date already been set.

Black Mass Trailer – Johnny Depp’s hairline recedes for the Whitey Bulger crime thriller

April 23, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

black-mass-trailerJohnny Depp is currently back in the world of Jack Sparrow on the set of the new Pirates Of The Caribbean movie, but he’s got something rather different coming up, where he stars in the biopic of Boston gangster Whitey Bulger. He certainly looks rather different though, with receding hairline, coloured contacts and facial prosthetics.

He’s joined by a great cast, including Joel Edgerton, Benedict Cumberbatch, Kevin Bacon, Dakota Johnson, Peter Sarsgaard, Jesse Plemons, Corey Stoll, Rory Cochrane, Sienna Miller, Adam Scott.

James ‘Whitey’ Bulger (Johnny Depp) was a Boston criminal who ended up becoming an FBI informant, with the help of his longtime friend and FBI agent John Connolly (Joel Edgerton) and his brother (Cumberbatch). However Whitey didn’t completely turn good guy, as his tips to the feds were mainly about getting rid of his mob competition.

When Connolly tipped Bulger off that the feds were planning on double-crossing him, the criminal went into hiding for more than a decade, rising to the top of the FBI’s Most Wanted list before he was eventually caught in 2011 while hiding out in Santa Monica, California.

Billy was never implicated in Whitey’s criminal activities, but his political opponents inevitably tried to use his brother’s reputation against him.

Area 51 Trailer – Oren Peli’s first movie since Paranormal Activity

April 23, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

area-51-oren-peliI don’t think we can hold out too much hope for the one even if the trailer looks dumb but potentially a lot of fun. Oren Peli had a massive hit with Paranormal Activity in 2007, and he was supposed to follow-it up with another found footage tale, Area 51, a couple of years later.

However first there was a delay in getting it shot, and then since being completed it’s sat of the shelf for years (it went in front of the cameras six years ago), with Paramount seemingly unsure what to do with it. It’s the sort of lack of confidence that suggests it may be a stinker.

However now it’s finally getting a small US cinema release on the same day it hits VoD on May 15th, and we can get a taste with the trailer.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘The film follows Reid, who has always been obsessed with UFOs. While on a weekend trip to Vegas, he convinces two friends to join him on a mission to break into Area 51, where they find terrifying proof of alien presence. Starring Reid Warner, Jamel King, Ben Rovner and Jelena Nik.’ [Read more…]

Riz Ahmed & Sam Claflin Circling Star Wars Rogue One

April 23, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

riz-ahmedStar Wars Rogue One is set to shoot this year but it still needs to complete its cast. Felicity Jones is already aboard and Ben Mendelsohn was recently rumoured to be joining her.

It appears a couple more are in contention as BadAss Digest reports Riz Ahmed is in talks for an unknown part in the movie, while TheWrap adds that Sam Claflin ‘is the frontrunner for one of the ensemble roles’.

The movie will be the first of the Star Wars Anthology movies, which Disney/Lucasfilm plan to release on alternate years and will focus on characters and situations beyond the main spine of the Star Wars story. Here’s the recently released brief synopsis: ‘A rogue band of resistance fighters unite for a daring mission to steal the Death Star plans and bring new hope to the galaxy in the Star Wars Anthology film, Rogue One.’

The only other think we know is that it won’t focus on the Jedi, with the main characters lacking the powers of the Force. Gareth Edwards is directing, with a December 16th, 2016 release date set.

First Look At Luke Bracey and Edgar Ramirez In The Point Break Remake

April 23, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

point-break-2015-pic1After a whole host of high profile actors passed on the Point Break remake, the producers settled on Luke Bracey and Edgar Ramirez and be their new Keanu Reeves and Patrick Swayze. They may not be big names, but they’re good actors, so hopefully that will count.

That said, reaction to the trailer shown at CinemaCon was mixed, with the only thing people agreeing being that a scene involving wingsuits was cool. While we don’t have the trailer yet, we don’t have the first two pics.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘In the fast-paced, high-adrenaline “Point Break,” a young FBI agent, Johnny Utah (Luke Bracey), infiltrates a cunning team of thrill-seeking elite athletes – led by the charismatic Bodhi (Edgar Ramirez). The athletes are suspected of carrying out a spate of crimes in extremely unusual ways. Deep undercover, and with his life in imminent danger, Utah strives to prove they are the architects of this string of inconceivable crimes. The film is replete with the most daring athleticism ever seen in a motion picture. These action adventure feats are performed by elite athletes representing the world’s best in class in big-wave surfing, wingsuit flying, sheer-face snowboarding, free rock climbing, and high-speed motorcycling.’

The film is due out at Christmas.
