Carrie Motion Poster Shows Off The Prom Carnage

May 27, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

It’s still a few months until Carrie is due to debut in cinemas (it’s out in October in the US and November in the UK), but in order to try and get us excited, a motion poster has debuted, which you can take a look at above.

Based on Stephen King’s first novel, the film tells the story of a teenage girl with a tyrannical mother, who gets bullied at school. However she begins to develop telekinetic powers, which come to full fruition on the night of the prom.

Take a look at the carnage in the motion poster.

Tom Cruise Bows Out Of The Man from U.N.C.L.E.

May 27, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Tom-cruiseIt finally felt like The Man From U.N.C.L.E. movie was a go. After years in development, Guy Ritchie was set to direct with Tom Cruise and Armie Hammer starring. However reports that just a few months after signing on in March, Tom Cruise has bowed out of the movie.

Cruise apparently want to concentrate on Mission: Impossible 5, which is due to shoot later this year.

Armie Hammer and Alicia Vikander are still locked in to star though, so the project hasn’t completely collapse, and Warner Bros. wants to find a replacement for Tom Cruise very soon, so production can begin this autumn.

The film is based on The Man from U.N.C.L.E. TV series, which followed two agents from United Network Command for Law Enforcement (U.N.C.L.E.), who try to stop the evil-doers from Technological Hierarchy for the Removal of Undesirables and the Subjugation of Humanity (T.H.R.U.S.H.).

While Tom Cruise could have likely shot The Man from U.N.C.L.E. before Mission: Impossible 5 starts at the end of this year, the actor is deeply involved in the production as both a star and producer, so he didn’t want to split his time.

New Rush Trailer Revs In – Chris Hemsworth & Daniel Bruhl for racing in the 70s

May 24, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


A few weeks ago the first trailer for Rush drove in, and now another one has arrived, this one showing off a little more on the track action and the recreation of F1 racing in the 1970s.

The film stars Chris Hemsworth as James Hunt and Daniel Bruhl as Niki Lauda, whose rivalry became legendary. Hunt was a dashing playboy with a wild social life, whose exploits off the track filled more column inches than what he did while racing. Lauda meanwhile was a quieter figure, but still an amazing and driven racer.

We’ll have to wait a while to see the film though, which also stars Olivia Wilde, Natalie Dormer and Alexandra Maria Lara, as it’s not due for release until September 2013.

Amanda Seyfried & Adam Driver Up To Join Ben Stiller In While We’re Young

May 24, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

amanda-seyfriedIt’s been a long time since we heard about this movie. Indeed the last time news emerged it didn’t have a name, but it was revealed that it would reunite Ben Stiller and Greenberg writer/director Noah Baumbach. At the time James Franco was also involved, and offers had been made to Greta Gerwig and Cate Blachett.

Fast forward a couple of years and Stiller is still attached but the other actors have gone. Instead TheWrap reports that Amanda Seyfried is in talks to join the film, with Adam Driver and Naomi Watts taking the other main roles. Oh, and it’s got a name, While We’re Young.

The film is about about a free-spirited Brooklynite twenty-something couple (Seyfried and Driver) who inspires an uptight documentarian (Stiller) and his wife (Watts) to loosen up – with comedic consequences. There’s no news on exactly when it might shoot.

Paddy Considine Joins Tom Hardy & Noomi Rapace In Child 44

May 24, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Paddy-ConsidineTom Hardy and Noomi Rapace recently made Animal Rescue together and they’re planning to team again for Child 44 later this year. Gary Oldman and Joel Kinnaman have already joined them in the film, and now they have some more company, as TheWrap reports that Paddy Considine and Sweden’s Fares Fares are in talks to star in the movie.

Child 44 is set in 1950s Russia, with Hardy as a Soviet military police officer who becomes the target of his suspicious government while he’s investigating a string of child murders. Joel Kinnaman will play the killer responsible for these brutal deaths, while Noomi Rapace is Hardy’s wife. Oldman meanwhile is the head of police who becomes suspicious of Hardy’s character and starts investigating him.

There’s no news on exactly who Considine will play, but Fares will be one of Hardy’s trusted allies. Daniel Espinosa (Safe House) is set to direct.

Gael Garcia Bernal Joins Jon Stewart’s Rosewater

A couple of months ago it was revealed that Jon Stewart was taking 12-week break from The Daily Show, so that he can make his feature-film directorial debut with Rosewater. Now he’s signed his first star, as TheWrap reports that Gael García Bernal has signed up to take the lead role.

Stewart also wrote the screenplay, which is adapted from Maziar Bahari’s 2011 book Then They Came For Me: A Family’s Story of Love, Captivity and Survival. The book recounts the author/journalist’s time in Iran, where he was supposed to go for one week to cover the country’s national elections. Instead, he was held in an Iranian prison for 118 days, tortured and interrogated by a mysterious man who the writer described as smelling of rosewater.

Gael García Bernal will play the reporter, who left his pregnant fiancée behind in London for what he thought was a routine assignment. Shooting is scheduled to begin later this summer.

Evan Peters To Play Quicksilver In X-Men: Days of Future Past

May 24, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

evan-petersLast week Joss Whedon confirmed that Quicksilver will appear in The Avengers 2. Now director Bryan Singer has tweeted that the character will also be in X-Men: Days of Future Past, played by American Horror Story star Evan Peters.

Singer said, ‘Before he was an #Avenger, he was just a REALLY fast kid. Thrilled to say #EvanPeters is joining #XMen#DaysOfFuturePast as #Quicksilver.’

As Bryan Singer mentions in his announcement, Quicksilver (a.k.a. Pietro Maximoff) was a part of the X-Men universe before becoming an Avenger with his sister Scarlet Witch (a.k.a. Wanda Maximoff). Quicksilver is the son of Magneto, played by both Michael Fassbender and Ian McKellen in the X-Men universe, using his power of super-human speed to do evil for the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants.

It’s unusual that a comic book character can appear in film franchises run by two different studios, but apparently there’s a special clause about Quicksilver because of his strong presence in both the X-Men and Avengers worlds. Apparently the way it works is that Quicksilver can appear in an Avengers film as long as his X-Men past and Magneto parentage aren’t mentioned. He’s almost certain to be played by a different actor in Avengers 2.

X-Men: Days Of Future Past is currently shooting in Montreal.

Queer Photo Doc South Of The Border Hopes To Explore Being LGBT In The US South

May 23, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


For many people, when they think on the US South, images of rednecks and rampant homophobia spring to mind. But what’s it like to be queer and live in the South?

The ‘queer photo documentary’ South Of The Border, from filmmaker Christian Hendricks, hopes to explore this, and is seeking $5,000 on Kickstarter to helm. Hendricks hopes to spend several weeks this summer on the road, travelling the American South and going to LGBT events, bars, and community groups, and documenting life there through the medium of photography.

He says, “Though my hometown of Cincinnati is in every sense a midwestern city, it serves as the gateway to the American South, sitting just across from the Ohio River, where the South (and my journey) begins.

“I’m drawn to the South’s distinctive culture: a region that is famous for being both hospitable and intolerant. What is it like to be queer in a region with such conservative religious and political convictions? Are these just fading stereotypes from the past? I hope to answer these questions and more as I set out to meet people, immerse myself in communities, and develop a new, personal understanding that I can share through photography.”

It sounds like it could be an interesting, so head over to Kickstarter to find out more. [Read more…]
