Kid Cudi Really Wishes His Gay Kiss Wasn’t Cut From New Film, James White

January 27, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

kid-cudiMusician and actor Kid Cudi is pissed. Someone filmed him making out with another guy. However he’s not annoyed that they’re going to release it, he’s annoyed that they won’t.

He’s in Sundance to promote the premiere of the movie, called James White, and what he’s wants the world to know if that he wishes they hadn’t cut a scene on him kissing another guy from the film.

AllHipHop spoke to Kid Cudi, who said “I’m mad [Josh Mond, the director] cut out my kissing scenes with David [Call]…We made out so many times — and it was so good! That’s my only gripe [with the film].”

The movie, which also stars Cynthia Nixon and Christopher Abbott, is described as being ‘a frenetic coming of age story about a young New Yorker struggling to take control of his reckless, self destructive behavior in the face of momentous family challenges.’

Cudi has previously appeared in the likes of Need For Speed and Two Night Stand.

All-Female Ghostbuster Reboot Cast Announced, Including Melissa McCarthy & Kristen Wiig

January 27, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Kristen-WiigA couple of weeks ago it was rumoured that Melissa McCarthy was in talks to be one fourth of the long-gestating all-female Ghostbuster crew in Sony’s planned reboot of the 1980s franchise. Now the four women who will be battling the spooks have been announced and it does indeed include McCarthy, alongside Kristen Wiig, Leslie Jones and Kate McKinnon.

It appears none of them have signed on the dotted line, but THR suggests it’s just a matter of ironing out the details.

There’s still no news on the exact plot, but the women will certainly be going up against some supernatural foes. Dan Aykroyd and Ernie Hudson are expected to appear, and if they can convince him, there’s still an outside shot Bill Murray will show up too.

Paul Feig will direct with a summer shoot planned.

Child 44 Trailer – Tom Hardy investigates a string of child murders

January 27, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

child-44-poster1Tom Hardy is getting dramatic for Child 44, and he’s also going a bit Russian, alongside an excellent cast including Noomi Rapace, Gary Oldman, Vincent Cassel, Joel Kinnaman, Jason Clarke and Paddy Considine.

Now the first trailer has arrived, but to watch it you’ll have to click over to Apple.

Based on Tom Rob Smith’s novel, with Safe House helmer Daniel Espinosa directing, the Soviet Union set thriller is about a military police officer named Leo Demidov (Tom Hardy) who has to investigate a string of brutal child murders that took place during the Stalin era. As he begins to dig further and further into the case, he realises that his government is keeping a sharp eye on every move he makes, and refuses to admit that the killings are actually happening.

Oldman is the head of police, who has problems with what Hardy is doing, while Rapace, who’s in the image below, is Tom’s wife.

Fantastic Four Trailer – First look Miles Teller, Michael B. Jordan, Kate Mara and Jamie Bell in the superhero reboot

January 27, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

fantastic-four-teaser-posterThe lack of a trailer or other marketing for Fox’s reboot of Fantastic Four has resulted in a lot of rumours, from reports that the movie is a disaster that needs massive reshoots to issues with the special effects meaning there was no footage to show.

However now the first trailer is here, and it seems very keen to show that this film will have a very different feel to the ones starring Jessica Alba and Chris Evans. It’s certainly darker and bigger in scale, even if the promo is still keen to keep a bit of mystery around exactly what the characters will look like in their hero guise.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘FANTASTIC FOUR, a contemporary re-imagining of Marvel’s original and longest-running superhero team, centers on four young outsiders who teleport to an alternate and dangerous universe, which alters their physical form in shocking ways. Their lives irrevocably upended, the team must learn to harness their new abilities and work together to save Earth from a former friend turned enemy.’

The film is due out in August. [Read more…]

Emma Watson Confirmed For Disney’s Live-Action Beauty And The Beast

January 26, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

emma watsonFor the last few years Disney has been looking into their animated back catalogue to see which of their movies they can take into the live-action arena, resulting in films like Maleficent and the upcoming Cinderella.

They’ve also been working on a new version of Beauty and the Beast, and back in 2012 it was suggested Emma Watson might play the lead. However since then it’s not been clear if she would indeed be the movie’s Belle, with many believing she had left after rumoured director Guillermo Del Toro stepped away.

However now Disney has officially announced her casting in the movie, which Bill Condon will direct.

So far there’s no release date set and no news on the exact direction the film will take the classic tale of a young woman and her unexpected romance with a fearsome man who’s been transformed into a beast.

David Oyelowo Heading Towards Hurricane Katrina With Selma Director Ana DuVernay

January 26, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

david-oyelowo-selmaFollowing Selma, it looks like David Oyelowo and director Ava DuVernay are teaming up again for a film around the time of Hurricane Katrina. Hopefully like Selma, it’ll be a subject that many filmmakers have tried and failed to fully take-on, but they will manage it.

Variety reports that the film will chronicle, ‘a love story and murder mystery during the time of Hurricane Katrina’. Unfortunately though there are no other plot details.

Producer Jonathan King comments, “Hurricane Katrina is one of the most important social and environmental stories of our time. Ava DuVernay has shown herself to be highly skilled at bringing intimacy and contemporary urgency to epic events. We have been looking for the right way to get back in business with Ava, and with David Oyelowo, and are proud to re-team with them on her original idea, which we believe will be a powerful film.”

The director herself says, “The story we’re interested in will explore the complexities of intimate relationships within times of chaos, while also examining the chaos itself. I’m looking forward to the journey.”

Chiwetel Ejiofor Courted For Marvel’s Doctor Strange

January 24, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Chiwetel-EjioforIt looks like the excellent Chiwetel Ejiofor may be joining the Marvel Universe, as THR reports that he’s being courted for a major role in Doctor Strange, although it’s not 100% what that role might be. It’s certainly not a done deal yet as they’re only in early talks, but it appears clear Marvel wants him to star alongside Benedict Cumberbatch’s title character.

The current speculation is that he’d play Doctor Strange’s mentor, the Ancient One, although it’s also possible he may be up for a more villainous role.

Scott Derrickson is set to direct the movie which follows the title character, Doctor Strange, who is a former neurosurgeon, a practicing sorcerer, and serves as the Sorcerer Supreme, the primary protector of Earth against magical and mystical threats.

A July 8th, 2016 release date has been set.

X-Men: Apocalypse Gets New Young Mutants In The Form Of Tye Sheridan, Sophie Turner & Alexandra Shipp

January 24, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

tye-sheridanX-Men: Apocalypse is starting to pull its new mutants together – or at least the younger versions of some old mutants. It’s been known that for the last few months Bryan Singer and the other producers have been looking for their youthful Jean Grey, Cyclops and Storm.

Now they’ve found them, as Singer himself has revealed via Twitter, ‘Meet our new and brilliant young mutants: @Alexshipppp as #Storm @SophieT as #JeanGrey and @TyeSheridan as #Cyclops. #XmenApocalypse’

Deciphering that it means that Sophie Turner (Game of Thrones) will play Jean Grey, Tye Sheridan (Joe) is starring as Cyclops and Alexandra Shipp (Aaliyah: The Princess of R&B) will take on Storm.

They will join the likes of Michael Fassbender, James McAvoy, Jennifer Lawrence and Nicholas Hoult in the movie, who will be going up against Oscar Isaac’s Apocalypse, an ancient mutant with extraordinary powers that dwarf those of most others. It will be set in the 1980s.

The film is due out May 2016.

Zac Efron On For Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates

January 22, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

zac-efron-slideZac Efron is finally properly growing up and finding him niche in slightly bawdy comedies (after romances and drama didn’t quite help him shake his High School Musical image). After That Awkward Moment and Bad Neighbours, he’s now got a new one, as Variety reports he’s set to star in Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates.

Jake Szymanski is on board to direct the comedy, which ‘follows two brothers who place an online ad to find dates for a wedding and the ad goes viral’.

The people behind the movie are now looking for someone to play the brother, and it sounds like it’ll be a case of mismatched siblings, as Variety reports that they are ‘hopeful that this film has similar results as when Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy teamed up for The Heat’.

There’s no news on when it might shoot.

Kaya Scodelario Eyed For Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales Female Lead

January 22, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

kaya-scodelarioThe Pirates certainly have a formula – Jack Sparrow, young guy, young woman and a supernatural villain. It doesn’t look like they’ll be breaking away from that with the fifth film, as Johnny Depp will once again be Jack, Brenton Thwaites is the young guy, and Javier Bardem will be a bad guy ghost.

Now it’s time to find the young woman, with Deadline reporting that Maze Runner’s Kaya Scodelario is in early talks to take on the female lead and love interest for Thwaites British soldier.

Not too much is known about the plot of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales, other than that Bardem will be a murderous ghost called Captain Brand, who’s seeking revenge for his brother.

Espen Sandberg and Joachim Rø (Kon-Tiki) will directing from a script by Jeff Nathanson (Men in Black 3, Tower Heist). Filming starts next month in Australia, with a July 7th, 2017 release date already set.
