2012's Dredd was warmly received, but sadly its vocal audience of supporters wasn't large enough to translate into a box office hit. Online fan campaigns have since been clamouring for a sequel, and Dredd himself, Karl Urban , remains the project's biggest cheerleader. Back in February he reported to a convention audience that "conversations" had been happening. Now he's told Chicago Comic-Con that it's "a definite possibility" but that we're now talking about a prequel. "It's more likely that we'll do the Origins story, with Dredd trekking through the Cursed Earth to find the first Chief Judge Fargo," he says. Origins is 23 instalments from the mid-2000s, going into the back-story business of how the Judges came to be in the first place. It's also, as Urban says, about Dredd heading out beyond the walls of Mega City One to retrieve Fargo's stasis pod from the New Mutant Army. And there's some stuff in ther

Gwyneth Paltrow and Chiwetel Ejiofor are already aboard The Secret In Their Eyes , Billy Ray's remake of the Oscar-winning 2009 Argentinian thriller. They now look set to be joined by Julia Roberts , for whom Ray specifically rewrote his screenplay. Juan Jose Campanella's original film had two male leads to one female, but after Roberts expressed an interest, Ray headed back to his keyboard to accommodate her. It makes for a refreshingly different dynamic at the top of the film, which will already be much changed from its progenitor. Ray's other major task has been to find a way to adapt Campanella's work for a more US or internationally-flavoured story: finding something that can parallel the focus on Argentina’s military junta and its overtones of corruption. What we know so far is that Ejiofor plays a former MI-5 agent haunted by an unsolved murder. Returning to Boston as part of a joint task force with the FBI, he uncovers a terrifying truth that changes e

Interview By: Beevers Tracey Birdsall just won the prestigious 2014 Maverick Award from the 10th Annual Action On Film International Film Festival. The star of Dawn of the Crescent Moon talks to us while basking in the afterglow of a major indie acting award. How would you say the independent film world and the large studio film differs? Independent film is all about creating without the confines of larger studio budgets and massive amounts of people providing input. There’s a wide array of independent film from somewhat missable to over-the-top amazing. Studio films are usually well-thought-out markets with large budgets following a proven formula with top talent. That said, although the studio films are oftentimes better produced and exciting to watch, the independent film can be surprisingly superior in it’s raw story-telling form and undiscovered or well-known talent. Many actors who previously would only do big budget studio pictures have ventured into the indie mark

Production is scheduled to begin in September on “ The Finest Hours ,” starring Chris Pine (“Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit,” “Star Trek”), Academy Award® and Golden Globe® nominee Casey Affleck (“The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford,” “Ocean’s Thirteen”) and Holliday Grainger (“Cinderella,” “Bonnie & Clyde”). The thriller, which will be directed by Craig Gillespie (“Million Dollar Arm,” “Lars and the Real Girl”), will shoot on location in Quincy and Chatham, Massachusetts. In February of 1952, one of the worst storms to ever hit the East Coast struck New England, damaging an oil tanker off the coast of Cape Cod and literally ripping it in half. On a small lifeboat faced with frigid temperatures and 70-foot high waves, four members of the Coast Guard set out to rescue the more than 30 stranded sailors trapped aboard the rapidly-sinking vessel. “The Finest Hours” is the story of their heroic mission, which is still considered the greatest small boat

Skydance is producing the sequel to 1980s classic with Jerry Bruckheimer Justin Marks , the writer behind Disney’s upcoming live-action version of The Jungle Book , in negotiations to work on Top Gun 2 , the sequel to the 1980s Tom Cruise classic that is being made by Paramount and Skydance. The move will goose up the long-in-the-works sequel and comes after the recent Paramount arrival of producer Jerry Bruckheimer. After years with a studio deal at Disney, Bruckheimer moved to the Melrose Avenue-based studio lot in April. David Ellison of Skydance is also producing. Skydance's Dana Goldberg is exec producing. Cruise is slated to return as ace pilot Maverick in a story that aims to show the relevance of good old fashioned pilots in today’s high-tech, drone-centric war environment. Peter Craig, the scribe who wrote Ben Affleck’s The Town, wrote the previous draft a couple of years ago. The project lost some jet fuel when Tony Scott, the director of the 1986 original a

TV Review: The Leftovers "The Prodigal Son Returns" By: Brandon Wolfe From the start, ‘ The Leftovers ’ has struggled with trying to figure out just what it wants to be. Though the series was sold on a humdinger of a premise – 2% of the world’s population vanishes inexplicably into thin air – the meat of the show has dealt with the small town of Mapleton and its mopey, grief-riddled denizens. That tug-of-war between that tantalizingly fantastic high concept and the low-stakes misery of its characters, with the misery handily winning out, has led to an inert, relentlessly unenjoyable viewing experience. The series could just as easily be about the aftermath of a mass shooting or a pipeline explosion to the same effect. It’s a series about sadness and loss, and little else. Its faux-profundity and all-thumbs approach to symbolism do little to assist with the fact that ‘The Leftovers’ is a vehicle running on the wispiest of fumes. In the immediate aftermath of Patti’s sp

It's official: Fox is plotting a TV sequel to Tom Cruise's 2002 feature Minority Report . The drama has landed at the network with a hefty put-pilot commitment that has a significant penalty attached, The Hollywood Reporter has learned. The Minority Report follow-up takes place 10 years after the end of Precrime in D.C., when one of the three Precogs struggles to lead a "normal" human life, but remains haunted by visions of the future. He meets a detective haunted by her past who just may help him find a purpose to his gift. From Amblin Television, Paramount Television and 20th Century Fox Television, Godzilla's Max Borenstein will pen the script and executive produce. Amblin's Justin Falvey and Darryl Frank will executive produce. The original sci-fi film was directed by Steven Spielberg — who executive produces Amblin's Falling Skies, Under the Dome, Extant, Red Band Society and more. The feature was loosely based on Philip K. Dick's short
