Empire got theirs hands on an Exclusive trailer for Red Lights . Red Lights is a 2012 Spanish-American thriller film written and directed by Rodrigo Cortés and starring Robert De Niro, Sigourney Weaver, Elizabeth Olsen, Cillian Murphy, Toby Jones and Leonardo Sbaraglia .

Gemma Arterton is in negotiations to star in The Wright Girls , a dark comedy-thriller from Relativity and Atlas Entertainment. Andy Fickman is in negotiations to direct. Inspired by the Japanese movie 2LDK, the story revolves around two young actresses who live together, pretend to be best friends and are co-stars on a successful television show. In reality, they detest each other and go to extreme and violent lengths to do one another in when they end up competing for the same movie role. The role of the other actress has not been cast. There were some online rumblings several months ago that Megan Fox was attached, but sources say the actress is not involved with the project. British actress Arterton is perhaps best known for her work in Clash of the Titans and Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time . Her next big studio project sees her starring opposite Jeremy Renner in Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters . Please Leave A Comment- Source- THR

Let's get to know the man behind the arrows. With The Avengers hitting the big screen in just a few short weeks, I thought it'd be a good idea to refresh everyone's knowledge of the different Avengers beginnings. With one exception, the movies seem to be pulling the character bios from the Ultimates series , so we'll be looking at the history of the comic versions of the movie characters from that universe. We're kicking this series off with both Hawkeye . Hawkeye, A. K. A. Clint Barton, is a convicted murderer, though the details of the murder are still a mystery. While serving his sentence, Barton was approached by none other than Nick Fury . In exchange for release from his sentence, Barton signs up to work for S. H. I. E. L. D. under the alias Hawkeye . Working many missions for Fury, he rose up through the ranks to become one of the elite black ops agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. After becoming a trusted agent, Fury had Barton pardoned and his criminal history era...

Empire got their hands on Exclusive new images from the film SKYFALL , starring  Daniel Craig and  Javier Bardem. As the mammoth, six-month production moves into its final few weeks, the producers of Skyfall decided it was time for some show and (to a much lesser extent) tell. For the past two days, the doors of Pinewood have been opened (well, moved slightly ajar) to the world’s press. Including a weirdly convincing fibreglass tube train, a partially flooded subterranean tunnel and a platform of Temple Station, all constructed on the gargantuan 007 Stage — then were also treated to a small but impressive explosion, during a scene in which Bond ( Daniel Craig ) desperately pursues this movie’s big bad, Silva ( Javier Bardem ). See all the images after the Jump... The sense was of a movie as tough and gritty as you’d expect of the Craig-era Bonds, but also shot (digitally) with a pin-sharp elegance rarely before seen, by director Sam Mendes, an...
