BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

Pitch Perfect 2 Trailer Has Arrived

The Barden Bellas are back, back, back and this time they're taking on the world, as revealed in the new trailer for Pitch Perfect 2 . The trouble is that the world doesn't like America, and Beca Mitchell ( Anna Kendrick ) and the gang are going to have to sing (and dance) like never before if they're going to make it. And, with any luck, not vomit as much as they did in the first one. As well as the returning cast you were hoping for - Rebel Wilson as "Fat Amy", Adam DeVine as the leader of the Treblemakers, Bumper Allen, and many more - there are plenty of new names to look forward to, including Hailee Steinfeld as Bella newcomer Emily. You've also got mud wrestling, some magic involving dry leaves and the concept of "Loser" as a language. The first film came out in 2012, sneakily hauling in $113 million at the box office, as well as winning over a legion of die-hard fans, who will no doubt be champing at the bit to see what is going to

Chris Pratt Is The Cowboy Ninja Viking

Read on to learn which role Chris Pratt will play in this upcoming film. After a breakout, blockbuster genre franchise hit, some actors like to retreat to the safety and 'credibility' of a gritty low-budget indie drama or two. Not so for Chris Pratt . Still a star of Parks And Recreation , he managed to find time to follow Guardians Of The Galaxy with a little thing called Jurassic World , and has now chosen his next role in another nascent comic book franchise.

But it appears that Bryan Singer is ready to exploit the 1980s setting of the upcoming X-Men: Apocalypse to show younger versions of the characters, and the initial round of casting rumours has begun with the likes of Chloë Grace Moretz, Hailee Steinfeld, Ben Hardy, Charlie Rowe and Timothee Chalamet in early consideration for the roles. According to The Wrap , these are all very basic feelers being put out by 20th Century Fox and the X-Men team, and nothing formal has been sorted yet.

TV Review: Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. “The Things We Bury”

Is the much-maligned ABC show actually getting better? We pontificate after the jump. TV Review: Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. “The Things We Bury” By: Brandon Wolfe When did Agent Ward become the most interesting thing about ‘ Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. ?’ The character spent the bulk of the first season as the walking, talking embodiment of everything that was wrong with the show. Bland, stiff, wholly uninteresting. The post-‘Winter Soldier’ revelation that he was a secret member of Hydra was where the shift began, but it felt short-lived, something too daring for a show this unremarkable to really run with. When Ward survived the first season and was kept on as a regular, it seemed to indicate that the show was going to backslide on the character, with him working his way back into the group’s good graces and atoning for his many crimes. Yet every time ‘Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.’ feels like it’s going in that direction, it catches itself and, surprisingly, recommits to Ward’s

Trailer For CINDERELLA

WALT DISNEY STUDIOS DEBUTS TRAILER FOR “ CINDERELLA ” ON WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 19, OFFERING FIRST LOOK AT THE LIVE-ACTION FEATURE DIRECTED BY KENNETH BRANAGH . The story of “Cinderella” follows the fortunes of young Ella (Lily James) whose merchant father remarries following the death of her mother. Eager to support her loving father, Ella welcomes her new stepmother (Cate Blanchett) and her daughters Anastasia (Holliday Grainger) and Drisella (Sophie McShera) into the family home. But, when Ella’s father unexpectedly passes away, she finds herself at the mercy of a jealous and cruel new family. Finally relegated to nothing more than a servant girl covered in ashes, and spitefully renamed Cinderella, Ella could easily begin to lose hope. Yet, despite the cruelty inflicted upon her, Ella is determined to honor her mother’s dying words and to “have courage and be kind.” She will not give in to despair nor

Ken Takakura Passes Away At 83

Learn more about the long career of this Hollywood staple. Ken Takakura , who first rose to stardom in the 1960s playing yakuza outlaws, but later became Hollywood’s go-to actor for made-in-Japan films, died on Nov. 10 at age 83 of malignant lymphoma. A private funeral had already been held when the Japanese media broke the story today. The legendary actor most recently starred in “ Dearest ” and Zhang Yimou’s “ Riding Alone for Thousands of Miles .” Western audiences best know Takakura for his roles in Ridley Scott’s “ Black Rain ” and 1992′s “ Mr. Baseball .” Born on Feb. 16, 1931, in Fukuoka, Japan, Takakura entered the Toei studio in 1955 after graduating from Meiji University. His breakout role was as an escaped prisoner in Teruo Ishii’s 1965 hit “Abashiri Prison,” which was loosely based on Stanley Kramer’s 1958 “The Defiant Ones.” The film spawned a long-running series, while Takakura churned out hit after hit for Toei in the remainder of the decade and beyond.

Toy Story That Time Forgot Teasers Trailer

Can't get enough of Woody and Buzz Lightyear? They're returning sooner than you think. With the recent announcement that John Lasseter and his Pixar team are officially working on Toy Story 4 , we don’t have quite as much of a pressing need for stop-gap visits with Woody, Buzz and the rest. But the shorts and last year’s spooky TV special have been so much fun that we’re happy to have all we can get with the gang. This year’s special is dino-themed and has two new teasers online. The new 30-minute short finds Tom Hanks' Woody and Tim Allen's Buzz facing a new problem thanks to Reptillus Maximus (Kevin McKidd). He's the leader of a group of dino-toys our heroes meet and who turn out to be suffering a similar delusion that once afflicted Buzz: they think they’re real. And when you have dinosaurs believing they exist, you know there will be trouble, especially for poor triceratops Trixie (Kristen Schaal). Based on the footage, there will be plenty of come

Image From Pixar's The Good Dinosaur

Is it Pixar News Day and no one sent us a memo? Between new Inside Out posters, a teaser for Toy Story That Time Forgot and now this fresh information on The Good Dinosaur , it’s feeling like the Emeryville team and their Disney partners were waiting to spring it all on us at once. Still, it appears to be good news for Dinosaur, as co-director Peter Sohn is officially in charge of the movie. There was somewhat natural consternation when director Bob Peterson was removed from the film over creative challenges, with word that the film was to be delayed until 2015. Which explained why it was Sohn and producer Denise Ream who turned up to promote the film at Disney’s D23 in August of last year, as the company scrambled to make it better. Now Sohn is promoted to full director for his feature debut (he’s worked in the art, story and animation departments and directed 2009 short Partly Cloudy) and has been putting his stamp on the film with the help of his colleagues. “The heart of th

TV Review: Gotham “Harvey Dent”

We break down the newest episode from the Fox series. TV Review: Gotham “Harvey Dent” By: Brandon Wolfe “ Harvey Dent” introduces to the ‘Gotham’ world Harvey Dent, since it would be weird to call the episode that had it not. Portrayed by Nicholas D’Agosto as a slightly manic, eager-beaver lawyer itching to take on Gotham’s corrupt upper class, Dent is constantly flipping that iconic coin of his. Of course he is. ‘Gotham’ would never resist the temptation to hammer us with iconography like its life depended on it. Edward Nygma offers riddles every time he pops on screen, Young Selina Kyle already has the nickname “Cat,” so why wouldn’t the show hit us with Dent’s coin repeatedly? Given how the show operates, it’s surprising they haven’t also given Dent eczema on the right side of his face. For an episode that bears Dent’s name, this is not really his showcase. He’s just a spoke on the wheel, though the initial impression of Dent offered here already hints that the guy might h

Daniel Bryan Exclusive Interview By Holzfeuer : Talks Working Out, Music & What Is Best In Life

We have an EXCLUSIVE interview with the best wrestler in the WWE. One night before WrestleMania 31 tickets go on sale worldwide, members of the WWE Universe in the San Francisco Bay Area had their chance to meet Superstars and score seats to “ The Showcase of the Immortals ” at the official WrestleMania On Sale Party . SandwichJohnFilms.com sent our ballsy correspondent Holzfeuer to cover the event where he scored an exclusive interview with former WWE World Heavyweight Champion, Daniel Bryan . While Holzfeuer is known internationally amongst followers of underground music as the lead vocalist of action adventure rock band ArnoCorps , he’s also a long-time follower of sports entertainment and pro wrestling enthusiast. “The ability to pump up a crowd and tell a story with pure physicality is a powerful thing, let me tell you,” said Holzfeuer. “My approach to performing live is more heavily influenced by the legends of the squared circle than it is by singers, no two ways

New Images From #JurassicWorld

So many big films, it seems, feel incomplete without unleashing some sort of viral campaign on the world. Jurassic World , which carries with it a hefty chunk of history and plenty of detail to exploit, is no exception. Which might explain why some new images from the film are now online thanks to a new corporate website. See all the images after the Jump... The site purports to be that of Masrani , a telecommunications company launched by Sanjay Masrani in 1973 and since inherited/expanded by his son, Simon (Irrfan Khan in the film). In addition to exploring the oil market, he also snapped up International Genetic Technologies (whose shortened name, InGen, should be familiar to any Jurassic stalwarts) following the death of John Hammond. And so the real reason for the rebirth of Jurassic Park in its new expanded form takes shape – Masrani decided to open a fully functioning version of the park as a resort destination, one that is seeing its visitor figures decline and trie

TV Review: Constantine "A Feast of Friends"

TV Review: Constantine "A Feast of Friends" By: Brandon Wolfe Four episodes in, the question is starting to arise of whether ‘ Constantine ’ is still struggling through its wobbly first steps or if the largely rote series that seems to be emerging is simply what we’re gonna get. The series has some solid attributes, but its weaknesses are overpowering them. One can only hope the show will strengthen with time, but one can also only extend benefit of the doubt so far. A sweaty, squirrely man named Gary Lester is passing through customs at an airport in Atlanta and his sketchy demeanor pings airport security’s suspicions, hauling him into a backroom for inspection. When an antique container is found among Gary’s possessions, Gary implores the guard not to open it, which of course necessitates that the man open it immediately. Doing so releases a swarm of mystical beetles, which forces itself down the guard’s throat. Somehow, amid all this chaos, Gary escapes from th

Will Fast & Furious Continue On? New Images From #Fast7

With the franchise such a family affair, it seemed likely that, following the tragic death of Paul Walker, nobody involved would want to continue past next instalment Fast 7 . It turns out this is not necessarily so. Deadline surmised last week that Universal might be looking to bring four-time Fast & Furiouser Justin Lin back to direct another one. And now, Universal Pictures chairman Donna Langley has revealed that, far from 7 marking the final chapter, she thinks the studio has at least three more in the tank. Can the series stand without Walker ? "I believe it can," says Langley. "We think there are at least three more. Paul is, and always will be, an integral part of the story, but there are many other great characters, and it's also an opportunity to introduce new characters. I think it's still a growing franchise. We'll see what happens with Furious 7, obviously, but our box office has grown over the past three or four films and internationally
