First Look At Kingsman: The Golden Circle Adds Channing Tatum, Halle Berry & Jeff Bridges

April 14, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Kingsman was a bigger success than most had expected. It was more than enough to get it a sequel, which will be released later this year. Along with the return of British agents Taron Egerton and Colin Firth (yes, he will return), we will be introduced to the ‘Golden Circle’, the US version of the Kingsmen.

That includes Channing Tatum, Halle Berry and Jeff Bridges joining the movie, to mix things up a little. We’ve now got our first look at them in the movie, with the release of some pics via EW. You can take a look at them below.

The film will see them teaming up to take on a new villain, played by Julianne Moore. Hopefully a trailer for the movie will arrive soon. [Read more…]

New Transformers: The Last Knight Trailer – Michael Bay is blowing up the bots again

April 12, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

If you were wondering whether, for his last Transformers movie, Michael Bay would make a small, arthouse-style drama, this trailer is here to says that no, you were a moron to think that. Instead – and despite Bay promising changes – it’s going to be as big, bombastic and literally explosive as previous instalments.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘The Last Knight shatters the core myths of the Transformers franchise, and redefines what it means to be a hero. Humans and Transformers are at war, Optimus Prime is gone. The key to saving our future lies buried in the secrets of the past, in the hidden history of Transformers on Earth. Saving our world falls upon the shoulders of an unlikely alliance: Cade Yeager (Mark Wahlberg); Bumblebee; an English Lord (Sir Anthony Hopkins); and an Oxford Professor (Laura Haddock).

There comes a moment in everyone’s life when we are called upon to make a difference. In Transformers: The Last Knight, the hunted will become heroes. Heroes will become villains. Only one world will survive: theirs, or ours.’

The movie will be in cinemas in June. Take a look at the new trailer below. [Read more…]

Detroit Trailer – John Boyega stars in Kathryn Bigelow’s look at the 1967 riots

April 12, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Following her looks at contemporary warfare with The Hurt Locker and Zero Dark Thirty, director Kathryn Bigelow is heading back into the past to look at a different kind of battle – the riots that ripped through Detroit in 1967.

Although many outsiders saw Detroit as leading the way in desegregation in the 1960s, this covered up massive racial and social inequalities, and efforts to deal with some of these problems led to growing tension. That boiled over in July 1967 following a police raid on an unlicensed bar, leading to five days of riots that left 43 dead, 1189 injured and over 2000 buildings destroyed.

In the movie, John Boyega plays a security guard facing the issues with the police force, which has been desegregated but is still rife with bigotry and institutional racism. He then gets caught up in the events that overtake the city.

Take a look at the trailer below. The movie is due in cinemas in August. [Read more…]

Jude Law Will Take On A Young (& Gay) Dumbledore In Fantastic Beasts Sequel

April 12, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

It’s been suggested that over the course of the five planned Fantastic Beasts movies, the focus will move away from Eddie Redmayne’s Newt Scamander and towards a young Albus Dumbledore. That makes sense, as from the Harry Potter books we know it’s Dumbledore who took on the evil Gellert Grindelwald (Johnny Depp) in a climactic battle in 1945.

Now we know who will play the future Hogwarts headmaster, as Warner Brothers has announced that Jude Law will take on the role. As the studio notes about Dumbledore in the announcement, in Fantastic Beasts 2, ‘We meet him decades earlier, when Dumbledore is still serving as the wizarding school’s Transfiguration professor.  He is also a contemporary of Gellert Grindelwald, the charismatic dark wizard who believes wizards are superior to Muggles and No-Majs.’

Of course, JK Rowling has also revealed Dumbledore is gay, and there were hints in the Potter books that his early friendship with Grindelwald wasn’t purely platonic, before they fell out following the death of Albus’ sister. What’s not known is whether Dumbledore’s sexuality will come into play in the Fantastic Beasts films. However, Rowling has suggested he may be acknowleged as gay in the movies, saying in an interview, ‘As far as his sexuality is concerned… Watch this space.’

Director David Yates comments on the casting, “Jude Law is a phenomenally talented actor whose work I have long admired, and I’m looking forward to finally having the opportunity to work with him.  I know he will brilliantly capture all the unexpected facets of Albus Dumbledore as J.K. Rowling reveals this very different time in his life.”

The sequel is set for release on November 16th, 2018.

Josh Brolin Will Be Cable In Deadpool 2

April 12, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

One of the rules of Marvel’s Cinematic Universe is that actors are only supposed to be able to play one character (Paul Bettany slightly broke that rule by being the voice of robotic butler JARVIS and then playing Vision in Age Of Ultron), but Josh Brolin has found away around it. He’s playing Thanos in Avengers: Afinity Wars, and by jumping across to the world of X-Men (which Fox owns the rights for), he’s now going to play Cable in Deadpool 2.

THR reports the news, and says we won’t just be seeing Brolin as Cable in Deadpool 2, as he’s signed a four-film deal. That suggests he’s also be around for the planned X-Force movie, and will probably lead that X-Men team when the time comes.

Cable is ‘described as in many ways being the opposite of Deadpool: a man who is a leader and used to being obeyed, who is very controlled but with an aura of simmering violence. In the comics, Cable was from the future and was the adult of Scott Summers, also known as the X-Man Cyclops.’ He has telepathic and telekinetic powers, he also has incredible fighting skilled, somewhat helped by the fact he’s been infected by a techno-organic virus, which has turned him into a part-cyborg.

Deadpool 2 is due out next year.

New Atomic Blonde Trailer – Take a fresh look at Charlize Theron’s bisexual baddass

April 11, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

This summer Charlize Theron will once more be proving that she can kick ass with the best of them. Now a new trailer has arrived to give us a fresh look at the graphic novel inspired movie.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘The crown jewel of Her Majesty’s Secret Intelligence Service, Agent Lorraine Broughton (Oscar® winner Charlize Theron) is equal parts spycraft, sensuality and savagery, willing to deploy any of her skills to stay alive on her impossible mission. Sent alone into Berlin to deliver a priceless dossier out of the destabilized city, she partners with embedded station chief David Percival (James McAvoy) to navigate her way through the deadliest game of spies.

‘A blistering blend of sleek action, gritty sexuality and dazzling style, ATOMIC BLONDE is directed by David Leitch (John Wick, upcoming Deadpool 2). Also starring John Goodman, Til Schweiger, Eddie Marsan, Sofia Boutella and Toby Jones, the film is based on the Oni Press graphic novel “The Coldest City,” by Antony Johnston & illustrator Sam Hart. Kurt Johnstad (300) wrote the screenplay.’

Atomic Blonde is due out in August. [Read more…]

Thor: Ragnarok Trailer – Chris Hemsworth has a new haircut & is battling Cate Blanchett

April 10, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

It looks like there’s gonna be a bit of a change for the third Thor movie, with more of a Guardians Of The Galaxy feel, rather than the rather po-faced previous adventures. That includes the destruction of Asgard, as well as Thor’s infamous hammer, and the demigod getting a brand new hairdo.

It certainly looks like it could be a lot of fun, with a goth Cate Blanchett causing trouble, and Thor having to face Hulk in hand-to-hand combat.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘In Marvel Studios’ “Thor: Ragnarok,” Thor is imprisoned on the other side of the universe without his mighty hammer and finds himself in a race against time to get back to Asgard to stop Ragnarok—the destruction of his homeworld and the end of Asgardian civilization—at the hands of an all-powerful new threat, the ruthless Hela. But first he must survive a deadly gladiatorial contest that pits him against his former ally and fellow Avenger—the Incredible Hulk! “Thor: Ragnarok” thunders into UK Cinemas this October.’

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

Christian Bale, Steve Carell & Amy Adams In Talks For Adam McKay’s Dick Cheney Movie

April 8, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Adam McKay​ is best known for directing Will Ferrell in films like Stepbrothers, Anchorman and The Other Guys. However, as he showed with The Big Short (for which he won a writing Oscar), he also has more serious interests. That’s resulted in him working on a movie about the former US Vice President (under George W. Bush), Dick Cheney.

Now that film is casting, with THR reporting that Christian Bale, Steve Carell and Amy Adams are all in early talks to star in the movie. If it all comes together, Bale would play ‘Cheney, who was an ardent supporter of strong anti-terrorist actions and a key supporter of the Iraq War. Cheney also is the former CEO of the multinational corporation Halliburton. Carell is circling the role of Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld. Adams would play Cheney’s wife, Lynne Cheney.’

There’s little further info on the movie, such as whether it will cover much of Cheney’s life, or solely cover a particular period in his life. He’s an intriguing figure, seen by some as the real President during George W. Bush’s tenure, by some as a war criminal, and by others as a rather inept person (mostly due to an incident where he accidentally shot a friend in the face during a hunting trip). It’s now clear when the biopic might start shooting.
