New Hot Pursuit Trailer – Reese Witherspoon has to protect Sofia Vergara

April 9, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Hot-Pursuit-QuadSofia Vergara and Reese Witherspoon are going to be hoping that they can repeat the success of The Heat this summer with their comedy Hot Pursuit. Now we can get a feel for whether they might be onto a success as a new trailer has been released.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘From Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Pictures and New Line Cinema comes the comedy “Hot Pursuit,” starring Academy Award winner Reese Witherspoon (“Walk the Line,” “Wild”) and Sofia Vergara (“Chef,” TV’s “Modern Family”), under the direction of Anne Fletcher (“The Proposal”).

‘In “Hot Pursuit,” an uptight and by-the-book cop (Witherspoon) tries to protect the sexy and outgoing widow (Vergara) of a drug boss as they race through Texas, pursued by crooked cops and murderous gunmen.

Fletcher directs from a screenplay written by David Feeney (TV’s “New Girl”) & John Quaintance (TV’s “Ben & Kate”) and Dana Fox (“What Happens in Vegas”) & Katherine Silberman (TV’s “Ben & Kate”). John Carroll Lynch (“Crazy, Stupid, Love.”) and Rob Kazinsky (“Pacific Rim”) also star.’

The movie is due out July 31st. [Read more…]

Sinister 2 Trailer – Things are getting creepy once more

April 9, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

sinister-2-posterBack in 2012 Sinister was a surprise success, being far creepier and effective than anyone had expected. As soon as it became a hit a sequel was announced, which was initially planned to come out only a year after the first movie.

It’s taken a little longer than that, but original writers Scott Derrickson and C. Robert Cargill are now back with Ciaran Foy (Citadel) directing (Derrickson was also due to helm, but stepped aside when he signed on the make Marvel’s Doctor Strange).

Here’s the synopsis: ‘In the aftermath of the shocking events in “Sinister,” a protective mother (Shannyn Sossamon of “Wayward Pines”) and her 9-year-old twin sons (real-life twins Robert and Dartanian Sloan) find themselves in a rural house marked for death as the evil spirit of Bughuul continues to spread with frightening intensity.’

The trailer suggests this won’t be a movie that tries to reinvent the wheel, instead going for some old-school horror thriller. The movie is due out in August. [Read more…]

Paul Bettany’s Vision Finally Gets An Avengers: Age Of Ultron Poster

April 9, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

avengers-age-of-ultron-vision-bannerSeveral weeks ago a slew of posters were released featuring the main characters from Avengers: Age Of Ultron, from Aaron Taylor-Johnson’s Quicksilver to Robert Downey Jr’s Iron Man. However one character was missing – Paul Bettany’s vision.

Marvel has now remedied that with a great poster featuring Paul Bettany’s slightly creepy-looking character in the movie.

Not too much is known about how the character plays into the film, although it is known Vision is creating the J.A.R.V.I.S. technology which Bettany has voiced in earlier Marvel movie. There will definitely be problems with that though, as the  Ultron also emerges when Tony Stark’s plans to use technology to create guardians who will protect the world when the superheroes aren’t available goes horribly wrong. It would seem reasonable to assume Ultron and Vision are two sides of the same idea.

Indeed recent reports suggest Vision is created when the robotic Ultron goes rogue and tries to destroy J.A.R.V.I.S., but accidentally gives birth to something unexpected.

Jamie Bell Goes CGI In TheFirst Official Look At Fantastic Four’s The Thing

April 9, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

fantastic-four-empire-pic5

After getting a later start on promoting Fantastic Four (partly because the footage wasn’t ready), even he first pics and trailers hid one big thing – a proper look at The Thing, who will be fully CGI in this new take on the Marvel Comics.

However now he’s been revealed in the pic above, and as you can see, he’s not exactly as good-looking as the character who’ll be voicing him (and playing his pre-superhero human side), Jamie Bell.

Empire has also debuted a couple more pics, which you can see below.

Bell will be joined by Miles Teller as Mr. Fantastic, Kate Mara as the Invisible Woman, and Michael B. Jordan as The Human Torch.

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…]

suicide-squad-cast-photoDC/Warner Bros.’ Suicide Squad is going into production very soon and to prepare the cast have gotten together for a read-through of the script, and to mark the occasion director David Ayer has posted a great cast photo on Twitter.

Ayer appears in the pic with Joel Kinnaman (Rick Flagg), Will Smith (Deadshot), Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje (Killer Croc), Jay Hernandez (unknown), Margot Robbie (Harley Quinn), Jai Courtney (Boomerang), Cara Delevingne (Enchantress), Karen Fukuhara (unknown) and Viola Davis (Amanda Waller).

Ike Barinholtz and Adam Beach are also included, although as this is the first we knew of them being in the movie, there’s no info on who they’ll play. There’s no Jared Leto on hand, who’s playing The Joker, but it’s not clear why not.

The movie revolveds 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.
David Ayer is set to direct, with an August 5th, 2016 release date already been set. [Read more…]

Daniel Radcliffe Will Invent Grand Theft Auto & Make It More Violent

April 9, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

daniel-radcliffe-what-ifDaniel Radcliffe is set to star in Grand Theft Auto – although this isn’t an adaptation of the hi game series itself, it’s about the co-founder and president of Rockstar Games, Sam Houser, and a fight he ended up getting embroiled in.

The film will follow how, after helping build his company into a videogame powerhouse with titles such as GTA and Max Payne (and it’s him who’s often credited with being wanting to make the games increasingly violent), ‘Houser and Rockstar Games came under repeated attacks from activist attorney Jack Thompson. Thompson was an unorthodox Florida attorney who was already attacking media companies for pushing rap and sex onto the airwaves when he turned his attention to what he saw as an obsession of glorifying violence in the video game industry. GTA was one of his favorite targets. He was disbarred in 2008 for inappropriate behaviour.’

Radcliffe will play Houser in the movie, which is due to start shooting April 20th. James Wood wrote the script with Owen Harris set to direct the BBC Films movie.

Pink Moon Trailer – Into a world where it’s straight people who are ostracised

April 8, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

pink-moonJust over a year ago we posted ago a KickStarter campaign for a short film called Pink Moon. Well that crowdfunding drive was a success and now it’s preparing for its premiere at Miami Gay and Lesbian Film Festival on April 28, before heading online later this year.

The film imagines a society where the roles gay and straight people have been reversed and ‘heterosexuality is persecuted and procreation is tightly controlled, two teens are forced to hide an unintended pregnancy before their forbidden romance is exposed.’

Brandon Tyler Harris and Adam Jepsen star in the film from director Sal Bardo (who was also behind the excellent Chaser and Sam).

The trailer has now been released, which you can see below. [Read more…]

Alphabet Boys Gay-Themed Web Series Seeks Crowdfunding Cash

April 8, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

alphabet-boysWith TV still having a tough time producing (and sustaining) decent gay-themed entertainment, a lot of the most interesting work is going on in the world of the internet with web series. Now there’s a new one on the block – or at least the makers hope there will be – called Alphabet Boys.

The show has launched an IndieGoGo campaign to raise a rather hefty $140,000 to complete Season 1. The pilot is already in the can, with scripts for seven more 15-minute episodes ready to go, with those behind the show hoping to shoot in June and July.

Alphabet Boys is described as ‘a bold and fresh comedic web-series revolving around four guys navigating the struggles of life in the Big Apple: Love, friendship and finding the ever-elusive Mr. Right. The show takes place in Alphabet City, where Dante, Blake and Ross suddenly find themselves with a new house-guest when Stefano shows up at their door. Three gay men under one roof is dramatic enough, but add a straight one with extra baggage to the mix and you have Season One of Alphabet Boys!

‘This season brings fun filled shenanigans during excursions through the city, pool parties, broadway shows, bad dates and personal drama between the boys. With complementary, yet completely opposite personalities, there’s never a dull moment with these four!’

Amos Wolff, Adam Perry, Chad Ackerman, and Joey Sorge are set to play the leads.

You can take a look at the sizzle reel below, and if you want to help out, you can head over to IndieGoGo. [Read more…]

Dane DeHaan & Mia Goth Have A Cure For Wellness

April 8, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Dane-DeHaanGore Verbinski looked like he was set to take over Hollywood thanks to the Pirates Of The Caribbean movies, but thanks to the failure of The Long Ranger and a reputation for going massively over-budget, he’s decided to set his sights slightly cheaper for his next movie.

He’s planning a horror film called A Cure For Wellness, which THR reports has now added Dane DeHaan and Mia Goth to its cast.

Justin Haythe wrote the script, which ‘tells the story of an employee (DeHaan) who is sent to rescue his boss from a European “wellness spa” but soon realizes he’s trapped, and discovers that the facility has a more sinister purpose than just serving the health needs of its patients. Goth, who is in negotiations for the role, will play a longtime patient who is oblivious to the spa director’s dark designs for her.’

The plan is to start shooting this June in Europe. It’s a return to horror for Verbinski who may have had some success with Mousehunt and The Mexican, but really broke through with the American version of The Ring.
