Den Of Thieves Sequel Is Happening

Given the reviews, we would not have expected to see Gerard Butler -starring crime thriller Den Of Thieves to spawn a sequel. And yet, spawn one it has, with Butler, 50 Cent, O'Shea Jackson Jr. and writer/director Christian Gudegast all returning for some more running, punching and likely bullet-swapping. The first film had Butler's LAPD Sheriff "Big Nick" O'Brien taking down a bank robbery gang that included 50 Cent's Levoux and Jackson Jr's Donnie, but things will be expanding out internationally for the sequel. In the new one, Big Nick is tracking Donnie in particular (who, spoiler alert, was revealed to be much more of a mastermind than he appeared to be at the end of the movie), as he teams up with the infamous Panther mafia to rob the world's biggest diamond exchange. Though the box office didn't necessarily scream sequeltunity, the movie has made more than $57 million worldwide and saved a lot of money on the original budget and mark

O'Shea Jackson Jr. Will Play Dock Ellis

He's following up the true-life tale (of his father) Straight Outta Compton with the more fantastical Godzilla: King Of The Monsters . But for another new movie, O'Shea Jackson Jr. is headed back to reality, playing infamous baseball pitcher Dock Ellis . Dock, as the film is currently titled, has a script by Joseph Poach, and tells the colourful story of Ellis, known for his loud mouth, chaotic style and quick wit when calling out double standards and the racism of Major League Baseball at a time (the 1960s and 70s) when it was still casually deployed. Ellis played for the Pittsburgh Pirates, New York Yankees, Oakland Athletics, Texas Rangers, and New York Mets, but was perhaps best known for pitching a no-hitter while, he claimed, high on LSD. He later said that he always pitched while on some sort of drug, and after his retirement, he got sober and counseled addicts going through treatment centres and prisons. He died in 2008 at the age of 63. "Joey Poach’s scri

Movie Review: Straight Outta Compton

N.W.A film is entertaining but still straight outta the biopic playbook. Review by Brandon Wolfe Partway through Straight Outta Compton , the biopic of hip-hop/gangsta rap pioneers N.W.A, the group is about to play a packed-house show in Detroit. Members of the Detroit Police Department have instructed the group of a laundry list of things they are forbidden to do during the show, the biggest of which is that they are not allowed to perform their hit song “F*ck Tha Police” under penalty of arrest. Taking to the stage, the group appears for a time to abide by the edict, but ultimately refuses to kowtow to authority and defiantly belts out the song. When the police attempt to shut them down, a riot begins to break out and the group is cuffed and tossed into a police van as the crowd turns on the arresting officers. Piled on top of each other in the van, the group begins laughing triumphantly, attempting to high-five as best they can with their hands bound behind them. It was totally w

New #StraightOuttaCompton Trailer & Character Posters

N.W.A. origin story Straight Outta Compton global trailer is here. See all the poster after the Jump... Straight Outta Compton picks up in the mid-’80s with a group of talented and ambitious musicians, spearheaded by Dre and Cube, articulating their experiences of life on Compton’s mean streets through the explosive medium of rap. Their rise to fame and occasional notoriety came hand in hand with huge success (nine million records sold) and internal frictions that eventually saw the outfit disband. Cube and Dre have produced this one, so expect a solid focus on the music. Keith Stanfield will show up as Snoop Dogg, with R. Marcus Taylor as Suge Knight and Rogelio Douglas Jr. as Public Enemy's Chuck D. Paul Giamatti plays Jerry Heller, N.W.A.'s visionary manager. Please Leave A Comment-

N.W.A Biopic Straight Outta Compton Is Coming

Two relative unknowns are set to tackle the roles in the long-gestating Universal project. After more than five years, four writers and a tough-to-please trio that holds cast and script veto power, Universal's N.W.A biopic Straight Outta Compton is finally getting the green light. Sources say the studio has assembled its leading threesome to tackle the roles of Ice Cube, Dr. Dre and the late Eazy-E. The three parties with approval—Cube, Dre and Eazy-E's widow Tomica Wright—have signed off on the actors who will play the core members of the seminal rap group. It's no secret that Cube has been lobbying for his son, O'Shea Jackson Jr. , 24, to be cast as the teen version of his father, and it appears he got his wish. Less known is the classically trained actor who is said to have won the role of Dre, Marcus Callender . Although the alum of New York's Shakespeare Lab at the Public Theater might be more familiar with Chekhov than Compton's gang-plagued stre
