First Look At Need For Speed In A New Featurette

June 11, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


With Fast and Furious such a huge moneyspinner, it not too surprising that DreamWorks is wondering if it can have its own car-based franchised with Need For Speed. Now we get our first look at the movie courtesy of an on-the-set featurette, which unsurprisingly focuses on the automotive action.

Based on the videogame series, Aaron Paul stars as an underground race car driver who owns a shop that modifies sports cars for racing. He is framed for the murder of his best friend, who died during a race, and upon his release from prison he seeks revenge. Dominic Cooper plays a former NASCAR driver who now owns a high-end shop that rebuilds race cars, while Imogen Poots is an exotic car dealer who works with both Aaron Paul and Dominic Cooper’s characters.

Scott Waugh directs with a February 2014 release set. [Read more…]

Logan Lerman Gets Stylish In A New Percy Jackson: Sea Of Monsters Poster

June 11, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

percy-jackson-character-poster2
While some are still wondering why they made a sequel to Percy Jackson, it was actually a fun film and quite frankly any opportunity to get the prettiness of Logan Lerman on the big screen is something Hollywood should take.

While you might expect all the posters to sell big action and fantasy, as new one has popped up over at MTV, which goes rather simple and stylish, simply reminding us that Lerman’s profile is nice to look at.

Lerman, Alexandra Dadarrio and Brandon T. Jackson are back in the world of modern day Greek gods for Sea Of Monsters. This time Percy Jackson (Lerman), the son of Poseidon, continues his epic journey to fulfill his destiny, as he teams with his demigod friends to retrieve the Golden Fleece, which has the power to save their home and training ground, Camp Half-Blood.

It’s out in August.

Holliday Grainger Up For Disney’s Live-Action Cinderella

June 11, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

holliday-graingerIf you’re going to make a Cinderella movie, you need some evil stepsisters. Now Disney’s live action take on the legend has got one, as TheWrap reports that Holliday Grainger (Great Expectations) has signed up to play the role.

Kenneth Branagh is set to direct the movie, with Cate Blanchett as the wicked stepmother and Downton’s Lily James in the title role. Game Of Thrones star Richard Madden is set to take on the duties of the dashing prince.

Aline Brosh McKenna and Chris Weitz came up with the script, but there’s still no info on how this version will deviate from the original story – although the presumption is that elements will be updated to make Cinderella less passive and more of a modern girl in charge of her own destiny.

The film is due to shoot this autumn.

Josh Peck Signs Up To Star Alongside Al Pacino For Imagine

June 11, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

josh-peckFor a couple of years now, Al Pacino has been attached to star in the dramedy Imagine, but the project has been continually delayed. Now it looks like it’s ready to movie forward, with TheWrap reporting that Wackness and Red Dawn star Josh Peck has joined the growing cast of the film.

Inspired by a true story, Imagine is about an aging musician (Pacino) who discovers an old letter written to him by John Lennon, urging him to leave his rock star ways behind him and bond with the son he never met.  Bobby Cannavale is playing the son, Jennifer Garner will be Pacino’s daughter-in-law, with Annette Bening as the rocker’s love interest, and Michael Caine as his longtime manager. Peck will be a hotel valet who Pacino urges to pursue the girl of his dreams.

Dan Fogelman (Crazy, Stupid, Love) is set to direct, with shooting set to kick off in the next couple of months.

Owen Wilson Joins Jim Carrey In The Heist Comedy Loomis Fargo

June 11, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

owen-wilsonOwen Wilson is picking himself up from a disappointing first weekend at the US box office for his comedy, The Internship, by signing up to star in Loomis Fargo (which may be in the process of changing its name), alongside Jim Carrey.

Deadline reports the news, but doesn’t say exactly who Wilson will play. Loosely based on a true story, it follows an armoured truck driver 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.

The presumption is that Carrey is playing the driver, but it could be that role is going to Wilson. We’ll have to wait and see.

Jared Hess is directing from a script by Emily Spivey, Chris Bowman and Hubbel Palmer

Director Zack Snyder & Writer David S. Goyer Returning For Man Of Steel 2

June 11, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

zack-snyderWarner Bros obviously has confidence in Man Of Steel (and some of the first reviews suggest they have reason to), as they’re already moving forward with Man Of Steel 2. They’ve locked in director Zack Snyder and screenwriter David S. Goyer to make it happen, according to Deadline.

It isn’t known whether Christopher Nolan will be back as a producer. He helped shepherd the Man of Steel story with David S. Goyer, receiving both a story credit on the screenplay and a producing credit. Insiders suggest that even if Christopher Nolan does return as producer, his involvement will not be as “full blown” as his work on the first film, partly because he’ll be busy for the next year or so working on Interstellar, a sci-fi thriller starring Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain, and Michael Caine.

Goyer’s three-picture deal with Warner Bros. includes Man of Steel, this upcoming sequel, and Justice League. Whether we’ll get the last of those will be determined by the box office success of Man of Steel, although even then we have to wait a while, as it’s been suggested that Warner may want a Man Of Steel sequel and a Batman reboot before Justice League.

A sextet of characters banners have arrived for The World’s End, giving us a look at Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, Rosamund Pike, Martin Freeman, Paddy Considine and Eddie Marsan, which you can see above and below.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Director Edgar Wright and actors Simon Pegg and Nick Frost reunite for a third film following the successes “Shaun of the Dead” (2004) and “Hot Fuzz” (2007). In “The World’s End,” 20 years after attempting an epic pub crawl, five childhood friends reunite when one of them becomes hellbent on trying the drinking marathon again. They are convinced to stage an encore by Gary King (Simon Pegg), a 40-year-old man trapped at the cigarette end of his teens, who drags his reluctant pals to their hometown and once again attempts to reach the fabled pub – The World’s End. As they attempt to reconcile the past and present, they realise the real struggle is for the future, not just theirs but humankind’s. Reaching The World’s End is the least of their worries.’

Blue Jasmine Trailer – First look at Cate Blanchett in Woody Allen’s latest

June 10, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


As is the way with Woody Allen movies, we’ve heard little about the plot of Blue Jasmine, meaning that trailer is our first proper chance to see what the movie is all about.

The only earlier info was that it follows ‘the final stages of an acute crisis and a life of a fashionable New York housewife (Cate Blanchett)’. The actress’ character, Jasmine, is used to wealth and privilege, thanks to her husband (Alec Baldwin). However, when everything falls apart and Jasmine starts to have a nervous breakdown, she moves to San Francisco where she can stay with her sister Ginger (Sally Hawkins).

Louis C.K., Bobby Cannavale, Andrew Dice Clay, Peter Sarsgaard and Michael Stuhlbarg also star. It hits US cinemas on July 26th, with a September 20th UK date seblue-jasmine-poster1t. [Read more…]

The Frozen Ground Trailer – Nicolas Cage & Vanessa Hudgens hunt John Cusack

June 10, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


Nicolas Cage, John Cusack and Vanessa Hudgens team up for the thriller The Frozen Ground, which looks both chilly and moody in this trailer.

The film follows Alaskan State Trooper Jack Halcombe (Cage), who sets out to end the murderous rampage of Robert Hansen (Cusack), a serial killer who has gone unnoticed for 13 years. As the bodies of street girls start to pile up in Anchorage, fear strikes a chord with the public. Risking his life, Halcombe goes on a personal manhunt to find the killer before the next body surfaces. When a seventeen year old escapee (Hudgens) reveals key information about the case, Halcombe is finally on the trail of the killer. But will he catch him in time to save the next victim?

It’s due out in the US on August 26th and should reach the UK later this year. [Read more…]
