Mama Director Andres Muschietti Up For The Mummy Reboot

September 14, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Andres-MuschiettiAndres Muschietti’s Mama turned out to be far more successful than most had expected. It certainly made Hollywood more interested him, and now TheWrap reports that he’s close to a deal to direct the planned reboot of The Mummy franchise.

He replace Len Wiseman, who dropped out a couple of months ago due to scheduling issues.

No plot details have been released except that the project is being pitched as a modern-day action-adventure tentpole with horror elements and brand new characters. The previous Mummy movies were set in the 1920s.

Billy Ray (Captain Phillips) was brought on to handle the script in February, who’s writing a competing draft to Jon Spaihts’ (Prometheus) original script. Although the original plan was to pick one or the other, it’s now thought Universal wants to combine both screenplays into one shooting draft. It’s not been announced when it might shoot.

Jack Black Circles Goosebumps Movie For His Gulliver’s Travel Director!

September 14, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Jack-BlackA film version of RL Stein’s Goosebumps series has been on the cards for quite a while, but now it’s finally moving forward with the news that Jack Black is in negotiations to star. If he does sign up, the actor will reunite with his Gulliver’s Travels and Shark Tale director Rob Letterman, according to TheWrap.

The actor will apparently play an author modelled after Goosebumps creator R.L. Stine, whose characters literally come to life, forcing him to hide from his own creations.

Darren Lemke wrote the most recent draft of the script, which was previously worked on by Carl Ellsworth (Disturbia), Scott Alexander and Larry Karaszewski (Monopoly). There’s no news on when it might shoot.

Grudge Match Trailer – Rocky Balboa & Jake La Motta take to the ring

September 13, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


Who would win in a fight between Rocky Balboa & Jake La Motta? I’m sure many have wondered about that hypothetical situation, where the stars of Rocky and Raging Bull meet in the ring. Now we’re going to get as close to that as we ever will, as Sylvester Stallone & Rober De Niro step back in the ring for Grudge Match.

The film is about two retired boxers (De Niro and Stallone) who step back into the ring to settle an old score. Jon Bernthal will play De Niro’s estranged son, who feels conflicted about training his father. Kevin Hart, Kim Basinger, and Alan Arkin have also signed on to star.

Peter Segal is directing, with a Christmas US release set and the film reaching the UK on January 17th. [Read more…]

Homefront Trailer – James Franco faces off against Jason Statham

September 13, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


James Franco and Jason Statham don’t seem like obvious co-stars, but Franco continues his ridiculously eclectic career with Homefront, which see James as a very nasty character who goes up against Statham.

The movie is about Phil Broker (Jason Statham), a former DEA agent who moves his family to a quiet town to escape his past. However, he discovers the town is overrun by a dangerous meth distributor named Gator (James Franco).

Interestingly the script was written by Sylvester Stallone, based on Chuck Logan’s novel, although he neither stars not directs the film. It’s due out in November. Take a look at the trailer above. [Read more…]

First Pics Of Aaron Paul & Dominic Cooper In Need For Speed Arrive

September 13, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

need-for-speed-pic1
You might expect that the first pics from a motor-head movie like Need For Speed would show off the cars, but instead EW have debuts images giving us a look at Aaron Paul, Kid Cudi, Dominic Cooper and Dakota Johnson in the movie.

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.

Aaron Paul says, ”This set was different than anything I’ve been on. You’re walking through a very thick cloud of testosterone. It’s really a throwback to the Steve McQueen era of car movies. I think people are going to be pleasantly surprised.”

On the characters, he adds, ”Dominic is kind of the antagonist of the film. Dakota is my character’s ex, and now Dominic ‘s character is the new guy she’s seeing.”

Joel Kinnaman Say It’s ‘Your Move’ In The First RoboCop Remake Poster

September 13, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

robocop-2012-poster1
A few days ago we got the first trailer for the new version of Robocop, and now that’s been followed up by a poster, which harks back to the original and the classic quote, ‘Your move, creep.’

Here’s the official plot synopsis: ‘In RoboCop, the year is 2028 and multinational conglomerate OmniCorp is at the center of robot technology. Overseas, their drones have been used by the military for years – and it’s meant billions for OmniCorp’s bottom line. Now OmniCorp wants to bring their controversial technology to the home front, and they see a golden opportunity to do it. When Alex Murphy (Joel Kinnaman) – a loving husband, father and good cop doing his best to stem the tide of crime and corruption in Detroit – is critically injured in the line of duty, OmniCorp sees their chance for a part-man, part-robot police officer. OmniCorp envisions a RoboCop in every city and even more billions for their shareholders, but they never counted on one thing: there is still a man inside the machine pursuing justice.’

Gary Oldman, Michael Keaton and Abbie Cornish co-star, with Jose Padhila directing. It’ll be in cinemas next February.

Ben Affleck’s Batman Will Be Tired and Weary In Man Of Steel 2

September 13, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

ben-affleckWarner Bros. CEO Kevin Tsujihara is having a busy time. Yesterday he helped announce an extension of the Harry Potter franchise, and now he’s been speaking at the Bank of America Merrill Lynch Media, Communications and Entertainment Conference. During the speech, he got around to talking about Ben Affleck’s take on the Dark Knight in Man of Steel 2.

It certainly seems like they won’t be going over the character’s origins yet again, with Tsujihara saying,”[He will be] tired and weary and seasoned and [he’s] been doing it for awhile.

He also addres the casting of Ben Affleck, which caused a lot of controversy on the Internet when it was announced last month,”[He is] perfect. We think it’s going to be huge. [The studio] could not be happier. We think it’s the perfect springboard for Batman and Superman”

Kevin Tsujihara added that a lot of announcements are expected to come out of the DC Comics’ unit at Warner Bros soon, suggesting they’re finally trying to properly rival Marvel’s success on the big screen.

Win The 80s Cult Classic The Last American Virgin On Blu-ray!

September 12, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Last-American-Virgin-bd-coverThe Last American Virgin is one of the few cult classics never to come to DVD or Blu-ray in the UK, but that’s about to be remedied as Arrow Video is releasing it on September 16th, and we’ve got two copies of the Blu-ray to give away.

The Last American Virgin follows Gary, Rick and David – three American teenagers with one thing on their mind… They move from party to party, trying out their latest chat-up lines, which usually end in miserable failure, especially for Gary, who’s more interested in finding true romance than a quick fumble in someone’s parents’ bedroom.

When new girl Karen (Diane Franklin) arrives at the boy’s high school, Gary falls head over heels in love, but Rick’s baser intentions towards her threaten to jeopardise their friendship for good.
