Fast & Furious 7 Understandably Gets Delayed Indefinitely Following Paul Walker’s Death

December 4, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

paul-walker-shirtless-davidoffFollowing the death of Paul Walker Universal Studios has had some difficult decisions to make about Fast & Furious. The movie was on a production break when Walker died, and there were also questions about whether it was appropriate if Walker does remain in the movie, whether his last film should be about racing fact cars.

Universal was quick to pledge a portion of the proceeds from the upcoming US home entertainment release of Fast & Furious 6 to a charity Walker co-founded. Now that have announced that they are officially halting production on Fast & Furious 7 indefinitely.

A statement from Universal says, “Right now, all of us at Universal are dedicated to providing support to Paul’s immediate family and our extended Fast & Furious family of cast, crew and filmmakers. At this time we feel it is our responsibility to shut down production on Fast & Furious 7 for a period of time so we can assess all options available to move forward with the franchise. We are committed to keeping Fast & Furious fans informed, and we will provide further information to them when we have it. Until then, we know they join us in mourning the passing of our dear friend Paul Walker.”

There have been rumours that Universal is looking at whether Walker has filmed enough of the movie that he can still be part of the film, or whether a complete rewrite to retire his character will be needed.

Walker’s autopsy results have now confirmed that the actor died from a combination of traumatic and thermal injuries, meaning both the impact of the crash and the fire caused his death.

Zach Galifianakis Is Going On A Heist With Owen Wilson

December 3, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

zach-galifianakisFor a while Owen Wilson and Jim Carrey had been planning to team up for Loomis Fargo, but now the film has lost its title and one of the stars, as Carrey has been forced out due to scheduling problems. However his replacement is already being lined up as TheWrap says Zach Galifianakis is close to signing on.

Loosely based on a true story, the movie follows an armoured truck driver (Galifianakis) who is convinced to help participate in a $17 million robbery, but his partners are quick to turn on him once the job is done and leave him stranded in Mexico while they go off to live the high life. Then it’s time to settle the score.

Jared Hess is set to direct the action comedy, working from a script originated by Emily Spivey and more recently re-written by Chris Bowman and Hubbel Palmer. Hopefully it’ll also get a new title soon.

sacha-baron-cohen-brunoSacha Baron Cohen may not be play Freddie Mercury anymore, but he’s still busy putting projects together, with the news that Now You See Me and Incredible Hulk helmer Lous Letterier has signed up to helm his spy spoof, Grimsby, according to Variety.

The first we heard of the movie was in August 2012, although things have moved forward considerably since then. Baron Cohen and Phil Johnston wrote the script, which is about ‘a British black ops agent who is forced to go on the run with his long-lost brother, who is a northern English soccer hooligan.’

Now the Mercury biopic is gone, Cohen is hoping to shoot Grimsby as soon as he can. although there’s no news on exactly when it’ll film.

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 Full Synopsis, Poster & Trailer Teases Arrive

December 3, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

amazing-spider-man-poster3
While The Amazing Spider-man 2 is one of next summer’s biggest movies, Sony hasn’t confirmed too much about the plot, leaving everyone to piece bits and pieces together. However now a full synopsis has arrived, along with a great triptych poster above.

This comes ahead of a trailer on Thursday, and to tease those Sony has releases a couple of teases you can see below.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘We’ve always known that Spider-Man’s most important battle has been within himself: the struggle between the ordinary obligations of Peter Parker and the extraordinary responsibilities of Spider-Man. But in The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Peter Parker finds that a greater conflict lies ahead.

‘It’s great to be Spider-Man (Andrew Garfield). For Peter Parker, there’s no feeling quite like swinging between skyscrapers, embracing being the hero, and spending time with Gwen (Emma Stone). But being Spider-Man comes at a price: only Spider-Man can protect his fellow New Yorkers from the formidable villains that threaten the city. With the emergence of Electro (Jamie Foxx), Peter must confront a foe far more powerful than he. And as his old friend, Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan), returns, Peter comes to realize that all of his enemies have one thing in common: OsCorp.’

Take a look at the trailer teases below.

Early next year Pompeii will be getting destroyed once more, in 3D on cinema screens thanks to Paul WS Anderson’s movie. Now three new images have arrived, via USA Today, featuring an ashy Kit Harington and Emily Browning, as well and a very Roman Keifer Sutherland.

The movie is set days before the historic eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 A.D. It centres on former slave Milo (Harington), who must race to save his true love Flavia (Emily Browning). Jessica Lucas is playing a slave who is a confidante to Flavia. Jared Harris, Kiefer Sutherland, and Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje also star.

Sutherland comments, “It’s been a long time since I did a movie this big in scope. There are amazing computer effects, but only a third of the set was green screen. The rest was huge props, big sets, elaborate costumes, which I love.”

jc-chandorAll Is Lost filmmaker J.C. Chandor to write and direct an biopic about NFL coaching legend Vince Lombardi, according to Deadline. Legendary Pictures is behind the film, who will be hoping they can match of success of their recent Jackie Robinson movie, 42.

Lombardi led the Green Bay Packers to five NFL Championships and the first two Super Bowl titles, but before then, he served as offensive line coach for the New York Giants. After Giants defensive line coach Tom Landry was hired as the Dallas Cowboys head coach, he got the Packers to hire him as their head coach, at a time when the team’s owners were considering folding the team altogether.

Under his leadership, he turned the then-losing team into one of the most successful franchises in NFL history.

Legendary has a rights package in place for the film, which includes a deal with the coach’s estate, the David Marannis book, When Pride Still Mattered, and a Broadway play that was adapted from the book. It’s not known when it will shoot.

Maria Bello Reveals She Is Bisexual (Or Technically ‘Whatever’) And In A Relationship With A Woman

December 2, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

maria-bello-familyActress Maria Bello has gained a lot of fans thanks to the likes of Coyote Ugly and A History Of Violence. Now she’s penned a piece for the New York Times where she talks about her sexuality and the fact she’s bisexual and in a relationship with a woman.

The piece, titled ‘Coming Out as a Modern Family’, talks about how she told her 12-year-old son, Jackson, that she was in a lesbian relationship. She let her child know about a year after she began a romantic relationship with her best friend, Clare Munn.

The actress says of the beginnings of her relationship that, “We had an immediate connection but didn’t think of it as romantic or sexual. She was one of the most beautiful, charming, brilliant and funny people I had ever met, but it didn’t occur to me, until that soul-searching moment in my garden, that we could perhaps choose to love each other romantically.”

This wasn’t her only relationship with a woman, as she has been with one other female, although most of her relationships have been with men.

Thankfully young Jackson wasn’t bothered, ‘He looked at me for what seemed like an eternity and then broke into a huge, warm smile. “Mom, love is love, whatever you are,” he said with wisdom beyond his years. (Yes, he obviously attends one of those progressive schools in Los Angeles!)’

Bello then wrote, ‘So I would like to consider myself a “whatever,” as Jackson said. Whomever I love, however I love them, whether they sleep in my bed or not, or whether I do homework with them or share a child with them, “love is love.” And I love our modern family. Maybe, in the end, a modern family is just a more honest family.’

She also tweeted the pic above showing off her very happy looking family.
