Yesterday, Edgar Wright’s Baby Driver premiered at SXSW in Texas to generally positive reviews. They also decided that it was a good time for the rest of us to be able to take a look at the movie, by releasing a trailer for the music-fuelled flick.
Here’s the synopsis: ‘A talented, young getaway driver (Ansel Elgort) relies on the beat of his personal soundtrack to be the best in the game. When he meets the girl of his dreams (Lily James), Baby sees a chance to ditch his criminal life and make a clean getaway. But after being coerced into working for a crime boss (Kevin Spacey), he must face the music when a doomed heist threatens his life, love and freedom.’
The film is due out in August. Take a look at the trailer below. [Read more…]
A few weeks ago we posted about the fact the gay-themed web series 
Brian Jordan Alvarez and Stephanie Koenig created something special in the world of gay-themed web series with 
Every so often, Charlize Theron wants to kick ass, or that’s how it seems. Whether it’s Aeon Flux, Fury Road or now Atomic Blonde, she is good at taking names and looking badass doing it. In Atomic Blonde. based on Antony Johnston’s graphic novel The Coldest Winter, that involves her beating up a lot of men, and getting sexy with a female French operative.
Among the many classic animated movies Disney is planning to bring into the live-action arena is The Little Mermaid. However, they’ve been beaten to the punch by a rather different film that may share the same title but isn’t exactly Hans Christian Andersen’s beloved tale – although it certainly share a similar inspiration.
Deadpool 2 will be introducing us to some more new mutants we haven’t seen on the big screen before, and one who’ll be taking a major role is Domino, the expert marksman whose abilities allow her to alter the laws of probability, allowing her to control things such as bullets that are in her field of vision. While a few name have been rumoured for the role, it’s now been revealed that Zazie Beetz will take on the role.
There’s been much discussion about the lack of decent roles written for women and about the fact few major movies have been directed by women. However, Below Her Mouth has turned the male-dominated paradigm on its head, with a movie about women, where the entire crew was also female.
We still can’t believe that Vin Diesel is really going to go against the crew he’s bonded with over the last five movies, but the promos so far for Fast & Furious 8 certainly suggest that (don’t be shocked if in the actual movie it turns out not to be quite as clear cut as that). Now a new trailer has arrived, which wants to show that while they might be shaking up the formula a little, there’ll still be a lot of OTT action.
Will this be the female Hangover? It’s certainly got that vibe, with a group of friends having a raunchy, foul-mouthed night out ahead of a wedding. It’s also got a great cast, including Scarlett Johansson, Kate McKinnon, Jillian Bell, Ilana Glazer, and Zoë Kravitz.
For many years, Dean Devlin has a master of disaster, producing the likes of Independence Day and 1998’s Godzilla. However, it’s only now that he’s stepping into the director’s chair, and he’s certainly hoping to destroy a lot of the world in the process.
While it was clear before Jurassic World was released, that plenty of people were keen for another Jurassic Park movie, but few people expected it to be so successful it would gross $1.6 billion, and become the third highest grossing movie ever worldwide (although it’s since been overtaken by The Force Awakens). It also ensured that another movie would be made, and now shooting on Jurassic World 2 is underway.
Video game to movie adaptations may not have a great reputation, but Hollywood can’t give up on the idea that their might be a lot of money to be made from them. One of the latest that’s in the work, is a movie version of Just Cause.
