Sebastian Stan Gets A Captain America: The Winter Soldier Poster

March 5, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

captain-america-2-poster7
If you’ve seen Captain America, you might not have expected Sebastian Stan’s Bucky Barnes to be able to be in the sequel – not least because rather than the 1940s, this takes new film place in the modern day. However as this poster shows he is returning, but this time he looks rather different.

He’s not just back, he is the chilly military man of Captain America: The Winter Soldier.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘After the cataclysmic events in New York with The Avengers, Marvel’s “Captain America: The Winter Soldier” finds Steve Rogers, aka Captain America, living quietly in Washington, D.C. and trying to adjust to the modern world. But when a S.H.I.E.L.D. colleague comes under attack, Steve becomes embroiled in a web of intrigue that threatens to put the world at risk. Joining forces with the Black Widow, Captain America struggles to expose the ever-widening conspiracy while fighting off professional assassins sent to silence him at every turn. When the full scope of the villainous plot is revealed, Captain America and the Black Widow enlist the help of a new ally, the Falcon. However, they soon find themselves up against an unexpected and formidable enemy—the Winter Soldier.

‘Based on the ever-popular Marvel comic book series, first published in 1941, Marvel’s “Captain America: The Winter Soldier” is produced by Kevin Feige, directed by Anthony and Joe Russo, from a screenplay by Christopher Markus & Stephen McFeely, and stars Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Sebastian Stan, Anthony Mackie, Cobie Smulders, Frank Grillo, Emily VanCamp and Hayley Atwell, with Robert Redford as Alexander Pierce and Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury.’

The film is out March 26th, 2014 and a week later in the US.

Jessica Alba, Mickey Rourke & Joseph-Gordon Levitt Get Sin City: A Dame To Kill For Images

March 5, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

A trailer for Sin City: A Dame To Kill For is coming very soon, but ahead of that we’ve got three images from the long-awaited sequel, featuring Jessica Alba, Mickey Rourke and Joseph-Gordon Levitt.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Nine years after the box-office smash SIN CITY, the stories of the notorious city dwellers resume in the hugely anticipated sequel SIN CITY: A DAME TO KILL FOR. sin-city-dame2
Boasting an all-star cast led by Joseph Gordon-Levitt (Inception, The Dark Knight Rises), Eva Green (Dark Shadows), Juno Temple (Killer Joe), Jessica Alba (Sin City, Fantastic Four), Bruce Willis (Looper) and Josh Brolin (Old Boy), this next installment promises to take audiences on a visceral ride into the twisted minds of Frank Miller’s unforgettable characters.

‘Co-directors Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller reunite to bring Miller’s visually stunning “Sin City” graphic novels back to the screen in SIN CITY: A DAME TO KILL FOR. Weaving together two of Miller’s classic stories with new tales, the town’s most hard boiled citizens cross paths with some of its more reviled inhabitants. SIN CITY: A DAME TO KILL FOR is the follow-up to Rodriguez and Miller’s 2005 ground-breaking film, FRANK MILLER’S SIN CITY.

‘Lionsgate UK will release SIN CITY: A DAME TO KILL FOR in UK cinemas nationwide on 29 August 2014’

James Mangold Up For The Deep Blue Good-By, But Leonardo DiCaprio Won’t Star

March 5, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

James-MangoldIt’s one-off and one-on for The Deep Blue Good-by. Last May Leonardo DiCaprio signed on to star in an adaptation of John D. MacDonald’s 1964 novel The Deep Blue Good-by. He’s now decided not to appear in the movie (although he will still produce), but The Wolverine’s James Mangold is now in negotiations to direct, according to Deadline.

The Deep Blue Good-by is was the first in a long-running series of books that centre on the character of Travis McGee. The  character lives on a houseboat, called The Busted Flush, in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where he takes”salvage consultant” jobs whenever he is running low on money, recovering lost items for clients for half of the profits.

After he meets the battered Lois, he tries to track down her abusive boyfriend, a journey which becomes far more violent and complicated than he imagined.

Dennis Lehane wrote the most recent draft of the screenplay, which was previously worked on by Kario Salem and Dana Stevens. It’s not known when it might shoot, or who DiCaprio’s replacement will be.

March 5, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


After lots of posters and promises, the trailer for Transformers: Age Of Extinction is here. All the posters said that ‘The rules have changed’, but from the look of it the rules of Michael Bay moviemaking haven’t, with women there to look pretty and lots of things exploding.

There are some pretty cool shots, including looks at the dinobots which will show up in the film.

In the movie, Mark Wahlberg will play Cade, the father of Nicol Peltz’s Tessa. Jack Reynor meanwhile is Tessa’s boyfriend, Shane. Stanley Tucci, Kelsey Grammer, Sophia Myles and Bingbing Li also star, with Michae Bay once more directing. The movie will be out in cinemas in late June in the US and early July in the UK.

Paddington Teaser Trailer – Plus a poster for the Peruvian bear movie

March 4, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


Harry Potter producer has just come off a seven-Oscar win for his film, Gravity. I’m not sure his next movie will be able to beat that, but it’s certainly going to be cute. Now the first teaser trailer for Paddington, the live action-CG mix based around the famed children’s character from Deepest Darkest Peru.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘From the producer of Harry Potter and Gravity, Paddington comes to the big screen for the first time in an epic new adventure. Starring Hugh Bonneville, Sally Hawkins, Julie Walters, Peter Capaldi, Nicole Kidman and Colin Firth as the voice of Paddington.

‘Adapted from Michael Bond’s beloved books, Paddington follows the comic misadventures of a polite young bear with an endearing talent for comic chaos.

‘Paddington has grown up deep in the Peruvian jungle with his Aunt Lucy who, inspired by a chance encounter with an English explorer, has raised her nephew to dream of an exciting life in London. When an earthquake destroys their home, Aunt Lucy decides to smuggle her young nephew on board a boat bound for England, in search of a better life. Arriving alone at Paddington Station, Paddington soon finds that city life is not all he had imagined – until he meets the kindly Brown family, who find him with a label tied around his neck which reads ‘Please look after this bear. Thank you.’ They offer him a temporary home whilst he searches for the explorer who impressed Aunt Lucy all those years before.

‘But when Paddington catches the eye of a sinister, seductive taxidermist, it isn’t long before his home – and very existence – is under threat…’

Paddington is due out in UK cinemas on November 28th. [Read more…]

Nicholas Hoult has been climbing up the Hollywood ladder with the likes of X-Men and Jack The Giant Slayer, but now he’s coming back to Britain, as Deadline reports that he and Jim Piddock have signed up for Kill Your Friends, about the 1990s Britpop scene.

The film is about ‘an A&R man (X-Men‘s Nicholas Hoult) during the Britpop music wave of the late ’90s who goes to extremes to find the next hit. Piddock, a frequent Christopher Guest player, will play Derek Sommers, the managing director of the record label.’

Owen Harris (Holy Flying Circus) is set to direct. John Niven wrote the script, based on his novel of the same name.

Non-Stop Tops The US Box Office, Beating Out The Hotly Tipped Son Of God

March 3, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Non-Stop-posterGoing into the weekend box office watchers were uncertain whether Non-Stop or Son Of God would come out on top of the box office chart. In the end the win went to Liam Neeson’s Non-Stop, which took $30 million in its first three days. While not quite on a par with Taken 2, it beat Neeson’s other recent man-vs-the-world flicks, The Grey and Unknown.

Son Of God was in second spot with $26.5 million, which certainly isn’t bad for a film that’s essentially just a repackaged version of part of the The Bible miniseries that aired on TV last year. It took that amount of money despite reviews slating its television grade production values and clunky pacing and script, as well as a tongue in cheek Twitter hashtag suggesting Jesus was too good looking – #hotjesus. It just goes to show how much money you can make by appealing to the US religious folk.

Those were the only two new entries, although The LEGO Movie also had reason to cheer, as it crossed the $200 million mark at the US box office over the weekend.

Take a look below for the US box office top 10 for the weekend of February 28th to March 2nd.

Rank Title Weekend Gross (millions) Total Gross to date (millions)
1 Non-Stop $30.0 $30.0
2 Son Of God $26.5 $26.5
3 The LEGO Movie $21.0 $209.3
4 The Monuments Men $5.0 $65.6
5 3 Days To Kill $4.9 $20.7
6 Robocop $4.5 $51.2
7 Pompeii $4.3 $17.7
8 Frozen $3.6 $388.7
9 About Last Night $3.4 $43.7
10 Ride Along $3.0 $127.1
