BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

Jerry Bruckheimer Updates his Slate of Films



Jerry Bruckheimer Updates his Slate of Films



Producer Jerry Bruckheimer gave us a quick update on his slate of upcoming movies as we and a group of other reporters chased him down a hallway following his press conference promoting ABC's The Forgotten at the Television Critics Association's summer press tour in Pasadena, Calif., on Sunday:

♦Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time: The film based on Ubisoft's video game, starring Jake Gyllenhaal, is heavy into editing. Bruckheimer said post-production is going well and he should have a trailer ready soon. "I hope in the fall," he said. "Fall or Christmas."

Pirates of the Caribbean 4: Rob Marshall is reportedly in line to take over as director of the lucrative Jack Sparrow franchise from Gore Verbinski. Bruckheimer said that he is confident Marshall can carry the torch, but did not confirm the Chicago director yet. "I think it'll be great," Bruckheimer said. "First we've got to make a deal." Should it be Marshall, Bruckheimer thinks you'll never notice there's a new captain at the helm of Pirates. "No, he's got a great sense of humor," Bruckheimer said. "He's very funny."

♦The Sorcerer's Apprentice: Production on the live-action modern-day update of Disney's Fantasia segment was plagued with two vehicular accidents earlier this year. Bruckheimer's debrief was practical. "It's sad," he said. "We do dangerous things, we try to keep them as safe as possible. One we had nothing to do with. It was just a person who lost control of their car, so nothing we can do about that." As the Sorcerer, Nicolas Cage sports long hair, a look he has also toyed with in films such as Con Air. "I think it's fantastic," Bruckheimer said. "He looks really handsome, sexy. You girls'll love him."

♦The Lone Ranger: It seems totally Johnny Depp for the megastar to prefer the role of sidekick Tonto over the Ranger himself. A producer might prefer the A-lister in the lead role, but Bruckheimer gets Depp's sensibiltiies. "No, we always wanted him as Tonto," he said.

Rivals in power and in love, and female monarchs in a masculine world, the two must decide how to play the game of marriage versus independence. Determined to rule as much more than a figurehead, Mary asserts her claim to the English throne, threatening Elizabeth’s sovereignty.

Winona Ryder- An "Alienation" Expert?

Winona Ryder- An "Alienation" Expert? We're halfway checked out for the holiday weekend, so let's end with bit of comedy. A litigious videogame player is calling Winona Ryder to testify as an expert in "alienation." Erik Estavillo has filed a $1 million lawsuit in California Superior Court against Activision Blizzard, publisher of "World of Warcraft," saying it "maintain(s) a harmful virtual environment to many of its customers by forcing them to follow the game's sneaky and deceitful practices." The plaintiff says he suffers from several mental health problems brought on by WoW's "alienating" features, such as forcing beginners to walk or run to get from one point to another instead of speedier options available to those who master the game or buy an expansion pack. Estavillo says that the slow pace is "deceitful" because more time = more subscription revenue for Activision. Here's where Winona Ryder comes...

Sex Tape Review: Overly Sexual, Rude, Vulgar, and Absolutely Hilarious

The raunchy Sex Tape will divide audiences and critics, but who cares? Sex Tape suggests a growing practice among loving partners: that of making a raunchy testament of their escapades for posterity. But what happens when that evidence gets seen by friends, neighbors, and even the mailman? This is the plot that pits Jay (Jason Segel) and Annie (Cameron Diaz) in an effort to secure every iPad gift Jay has given, his record company playlists being the envy of the recipients, but which has also inadvertently spread the video to every device. The reason for the act - termed in the movie as pulling "the full Lincoln " for its three-hour length - stems from the couple's non-existent social life, brought on by the constant demands of their children. The couple has a lot to lose: a burgeoning business relationship between Annie and Hank (Rob Lowe) could end if the iPad she's given to Hank exposes the video, and so the couple sets out to reclaim and wipe the incrim...
