May 15, 2018 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Mark Wahlberg and director Pete Berg sure like one another. After Lone Survivor, Deepwater Horizon and Patriot’s Day, they’ve got back together for Mile 22, and once more it’s taking them into heroic action territory.

Here’s the brief synopsis: ‘In this heart-racing action thriller, a CIA agent stationed in Indonesia is tasked with transporting an informant whose identity has been discovered, from the center of the city to an awaiting getaway plane at an airport 22 miles away. While en route, they must battle corrupt police, criminal overlords and heavily-armed locals, all hell-bent on taking them out before they reach their plane.’

Bohemian Rhapsody Teaser Trailer – Rami Malek embodies the legendary Freddie Mercury

May 15, 2018 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

We’ve had a couple of pics from the Queen biopic Bohemian Rhapsody, but there are plenty of people who’ve really wanted too see footage. That’s not just to see whether Rami Malek does a good job as legendary gay front-man Freddie Mercury, but also whether the film looks it’s going to be okay after the drama of director Bryan Singer getting fired and replaced by Dexter Fletcher.

Now the first teaser trailer and poster is here, so we can get a feel for the long-gestating movie.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY is a foot-stomping celebration of Queen, their music and their extraordinary lead singer Freddie Mercury, who defied stereotypes and shattered convention to become one of the most beloved entertainers on the planet.

‘The film traces the meteoric rise of the band through their iconic songs and revolutionary sound, their near-implosion as Mercury’s lifestyle spirals out of control, and their triumphant reunion on the eve of Live Aid, where Mercury, facing a life-threatening illness, leads the band in one of the greatest performances in the history of rock music. In the process, cementing the legacy of a band that were always more like a family, and who continue to inspire outsiders, dreamers and music lovers to this day.’

Bohemian Rhapsody is due in UK cinemas on October 24th. [Read more…]

RuPaul Is Going On A Netflix Series Road Trip & Getting Animated With Drag Queen Babies

May 14, 2018 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

RuPaul is busy! Alongside the continuing & growing success of Drag Race, two new series featuring the drag superstar are in the works. The first is coming soon via Drag Race producer World Of Wonder’s new streaming platform, WOW Presents Plus. It sees RuPaul as an animated unicorn alonhside a bevy of drag queen toddlers. Those youngsters are voiced by Drag Race alums such as Bianca Del Rio as Dina Saur, Adore Delano as Roxy Moron, Latrice Royale as Lady Liber T, Detox as Donatella Mewhattodoo, and Valentina as Arugula.

The trailer for the show has arrived, which you can take a look at below. Drag Tots starts streaming on WOW Presents Plus on June 28th.

More Ru will also be coming soon, with a 10-part show that’s just been ordered by Netflix. This is a live-action outing, which comes with some other illustrious talent involved, as Sex & The City showrunner Michael Patrick King is helping brings the series to life.

According to THR the series, currently titled AJ and the Queen, ‘will follow RuPaul as Ruby Red, a bigger-than-life but down-on-her-luck drag queen who travels across America from club to club in a rundown 1990s RV with her unlikely sidekick, AJ, a recently orphaned, tough-talking, scrappy 11-year-old stowaway. As these two misfits, one tall, one small, travel from city to city, Ruby’s message of love and acceptance winds up touching people and changing their lives for the better. Oh, and RuPaul performs a killer musical number in every drag club.’

Netflix has ordered 10 hour-long episodes of the show. RuPaul and King will co-write and produce the series, although there’s no news on exactly when we’ll get to see it.

If all that weren’t enough, the drag legend is also involved in the previously announced Queen over at Hulu, loosely based on his rise from club kid to drag queen superstar.

Take a look at the announcement Tweet for AJ & The Queen, as well as the Drag Tots trailer below. [Read more…]

Ideal Home UK Trailer – Paul Rudd & Steve Coogan become a bickering gay couple

May 14, 2018 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Last month we got our first look at Ideal Home, which sees Paul Rudd and Steve Coogan teaming up to play a married gay couple. That trailer got a lot of people hot under the cover about how good Rudd looks with full beard.

Now it’s been announced that Ideal Home will be available in cinemas and on Digital HD from 6th July 2018, courtesy of Signature Entertainment. Alongside that has come the UK trailer.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Flamboyant TV chef Erasmus Brumble (Coogan) along with his director and long-term partner Paul (Rudd), are happy going through life playing as hard as they work. But suddenly they have to decide whether to grow-up or continue down their well-trodden path, when Erasmus’s estranged grandson, Bill (played by Jack Gore), unexpectedly turns up at their door, after his father is taken away to serve time in prison.

‘Having another mouth to feed can always come with its strains, but the couple’s fears that they are not yet cut out to be devoted parents become apparent very quickly, with their lavish social lifestyle (and an extensive erotic film collection) getting in the way of their duties as responsible guardians. As unsuited as this small family may initially seem, the loving bond they eventually form is threatened to be broken when Bill’s father warns he’ll take him away upon his release from jail.’

Take a look at the UK poster and trailer below. Plus, there’s a new close-up of beardy Paul Rudd for those who like that sort of thing! [Read more…]

Mapplethorpe Trailer – Plus the Matt Smith starring biopic of the gay photographer needs your help

May 10, 2018 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Mapplethorpe, the biopic of legendary gay photographer Robert Mapplethorpe, debuted at the Tribeca Film Fesitval a couple of weeks ago. However, just because the film has screened, doesn’t mean it’s finished, so an IndieGoGo campaign has been launched to help raise funds for things like music licensing, special effects and the expense of taking the movie around to festivals.

Alongside the campaign, the first trailer for the film has arrived, giving us a look at Matt Smith as Mapplethorpe in Ondi Timoner’s film.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Robert Mapplethorpe’s portraits, images of calla lilies, and chronicles of New York City’s underground BDSM scene remain touchstones of 20th-century photography even now, nearly three decades after his death from complications of HIV/AIDS in 1989. Mapplethorpe revisits the titular photographer’s legacy, beginning at the moment just before he takes up residence in the Chelsea Hotel. There, Mapplethorpe begins to amass a portfolio of images—and, at the same time, to explore his formerly supressed attraction to men. But Mapplethorpe’s relentless ambition—as he says in one early scene, “I can’t just be Mapplethorpe the photographer,” fancying himself a “modern Michelangelo”—threatens to tear apart the relationships he cherishes the most.

‘From the early ’70s until his untimely death at age 42, the film explores the intersection of his art and his sexuality, his struggle for mainstream recognition, and, looming above it all, the specter of the emerging AIDS crisis. Featuring Matt Smith (Doctor Who, The Crown) and Marianne Rendón, the biopic offers a nuanced portrait of an artist at the height of his craft and of the self-destructive impulses that threaten to undermine it all.’

Take a look at the trailer, clip and fundraising video below, and if you like what you see, head over to Indie GoGo to help complete the movie. There are also some interesting perks on offer, including props and clothes used in the movie. [Read more…]

Alex Strangelove Trailer – Netflix gets it’s own gay teen comedy, but sexier than Love, Simon

May 10, 2018 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Netflix seems to on a mission to prove that whatever Hollywood can do, it can do too. After Tinsel Town produced its first mainstream gay teen comedy release, Netflix is lining up something that fits in the same ballpark – Alex Strangelove. The first trailer for the movie has arrive, which suggests that unlike Love, Simon, this one won’t be ignoring the fact teens like to have sex.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘High school senior Alex Truelove (Daniel Doheny) has it all – the grades, the girlfriend (Madeline Weinstein), and the motley crew of hilarious friends. Everything is smooth sailing until Alex shares that he’s decided to part ways with his virginity – and meets Elliott (Antonio Marziale), a sweet and confident gay boy who isn’t shy about his instant crush on Alex…who may or may not feel the same. Rocketed into a endearing and amusing journey of sexual and self-exploration, Alex ultimately learns that like so much of growing up, love can be confusing. And that’s okay.’

The Skeleton Twins director Craig Johnson is behind the movie, which will start streaming on Netflix from June 8th. Take a look at the trailer below. [Read more…]

The Predator Teaser Trailer – The alien hunter is back

May 10, 2018 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

There have been a couple of attempts to reinvigorate the Predator franchise, whether it’s been getting them to battle Aliens or taking us to their planet in Robert Rodriguez’s Predators. Fox finally seemed to have given up on it, until Iron Man 3’s Shane Black rocked up with a new idea and suddenly, The Predator was in the works.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘From the outer reaches of space to the small-town streets of suburbia, the hunt comes home in Shane Black’s explosive reinvention of the Predator series. Now, the universe’s most lethal hunters are stronger, smarter and deadlier than ever before, having genetically upgraded themselves with DNA from other species. When a young boy accidentally triggers their return to Earth, only a ragtag crew of ex-soldiers and a disgruntled science teacher can prevent the end of the human race.’

Black wrote the script and also directs, with Boyd Holbrook, Trevante Rhodes, Jacob Tremblay, Keegan-Michael Key, Olivia Munn, Sterling K. Brown, Alfie Allen, Thomas Jane, Augusto Aguilera, Jake Busey, and Yvonne Strahovski starring. The film will be in cinemas in September. Take a look at the first teaser trailer below. [Read more…]

Final Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again Trailer – ABBA-tastic?

May 8, 2018 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

While it’s derided by many, Mamma Mia! is one of the most successful movie musicals ever made, grossing over $600 million. For a time it was the highest grossing movie ever in the UK, and the highest grossing movie directed by a woman worldwide.

As a result it’s getting a sequel that brings back most of the original cast – although as the trailer suggests there may have been a significant death – as well as taking us into the past and just how Meryl Streep’s character ended up having three men who could have been the father of her child.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Ten years after Mamma Mia! The Movie grossed more than $600 million around the world, you are invited to return to the magical Greek island of Kalokairi in an all-new original musical based on the songs of ABBA. With the film’s original cast returning and new additions including Lily James (Cinderella, Baby Driver), the musical comedy will open in UK cinemas on 20th July 2018.

‘Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again is produced by Judy Craymer and Gary Goetzman, producers of the original film. Craymer is also the creator and producer of the worldwide smash-hit stage musical.

‘Ol Parker, writer of The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, writes and directs the sequel from a story by Catherine Johnson, Richard Curtis and Parker. Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus return to provide music and lyrics and serve as executive producers. Tom Hanks, Rita Wilson, Phyllida Lloyd, Richard Curtis and Nicky Kentish Barnes also serve as executive producers.

‘Reprising their roles from Mamma Mia! The Movie are Academy Award® winner Meryl Streep as Donna, Julie Walters as Rosie and Christine Baranski as Tanya. Amanda Seyfried and Dominic Cooper reunite as Sophie and Sky, while Pierce Brosnan, Stellan Skarsgård and Oscar® winner Colin Firth return to play Sophie’s three possible dads: Sam, Bill and Harry.

‘As the film goes back and forth in time to show how relationships forged in the past resonate in the present, James will play the role of Young Donna. Filling the roles of Young Rosie and Young Tanya are Alexa Davies (A Brilliant Young Mind) and Jessica Keenan Wynn (Broadway’s Beautiful). Young Sam will be played by Jeremy Irvine (War Horse), while Young Bill is Josh Dylan (Allied) and Young Harry is Hugh Skinner (Kill Your Friends).’

Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again will be released in UK cinemas on 20th July 2018. [Read more…]
