Here is the new poster for Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter via Empire   puts old Abe ( Benjamin Walker ) front and centre in the movie's not-entirely-historical world. On a train, to be precise. A flaming death train. Well, this is a Timur Bekmambetov movie. It was never going to be the 16.47 to Wanstead. Adapted from Seth Grahame-Smith vampire genre mash, Vampire Hunter sticks an axe into Abraham Lincoln's hand and no doubt sneaks a trick or two under that stovepipe hat, as the Prez tackles the massed ranks of the undead. The vampire cohorts are led by the exceptionally nasty Adam ( Rufus Sewell ), while saddling up on Team Abe are wife Mary Todd Lincoln ( Mary Elizabeth Winstead ) and his vampire-smiting guru Henry Sturges ( Dominic Cooper ). To recap: that's Howard Stark and Ramona Flowers versus the massed ranks of the undead. And AlanTudyk's in the mix as Stephen A. Douglas. Fight! If you wonder what the 19th century would have looked like if, instead o

Fourteen days, "Avengers" fans! You know, not that we're counting or anything. Oh, who are we kidding? Of course, we're counting down! To help as you drudge through the long days that lie ahead before the midnight release, we have another "Avengers" interview for you: Nick Fury himself, Samuel L. Jackson ! When MTV News caught up with the actor, our correspondent mentioned to Jackson that there are a lot of people who would love to see just him in a S.H.I.E.L.D. film. "Really?" he questioned. "Just handling it?" The actor was surprised because he knows there are key characters necessary for any S.H.I.E.L.D. movie. "Natasha is part of S.H.I.E.L.D., Hawkeye is part of S.H.I.E.L.D., and I couldn't do a S.H.I.E.L.D. movie without those two people. They're essential elements of what's there," Jackson said.

LOOK out Sydney - Hugh Jackman is coming to town and he's bringing his razor-sharp claws with him when he films The Wolverine in his home city. In a deal estimated to be worth $80 million to the New South Wales economy, the blockbuster is the latest big budget movie to be made in the state following recent hits such as The Great Gatsby, Lego, Walking With Dinosaurs and Happy Feet 2 .

Thanks to Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes proving to be one of the most enjoyable – and successful – blockbusters of last year, director Rupert Wyatt has found himself in demand for several high profile jobs. But he hasn’t locked in a definite possibility until now, as he’s attached to direct Charlize Theron in a sci-fi action pic called Agent 13 . Newcomer T.S. Nolan has written the script which… Well, we can’t actually tell you that part just yet, because it’s being kept a strict secret. But we do know there will be an agent in it. And that agent will be 13. Ahem. And as of right now, there’s no studio on board to make the thing. But with the Rise director collaborating with an Oscar-winning actress, the big guns are already circling to lock this one down. Theron was last seen in Jason Reitman’s Young Adult. She’ll next crop up as the youth-obsessed Queen Ravenna in Snow White And The Huntsman (due June 1) and also has a role in another film arriving one the same day. Someth
