BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

The Words Review. Is It A True Love Story?

The Words Review By: MattInRC Does The Words establish itself as an Oscar candidate, or find itself on the discount book pile? Warning: major spoilers ahead. With the Summer movie season officially over, all eyes turn to the Fall, where Oscar contenders lie in wait like a scene from African Cats. With the exception of a few upcoming action flicks (Skyfall and The Hobbit), the mood at theaters becomes decidedly dramatic, complete with male crying, overly-dramatic music, and a general feeling that the theater has been pumped with estrogen. The opening salvo, The Words, actually demonstrates potential early but loses the crowd in a surprising third act. When struggling writer Rory Jansen ( Bradley Cooper , Limitless) finds an old manuscript in a weathered bag while on his honeymoon in Paris, he decides to channel the passionate words of the unknown author by typing them on his computer; but when Rory's wife Dora ( Zoe Saldana , Star Trek) thinks he's actually written the

Byzantium Clip Starring Saoirse Ronan

Empire got their hands on this exclusive clip from Neil Jordan's Byzantium . The director has a gift for coming up with a fresh take on supernatural characters.

Now he's back with a very different approach to the blood-sucking undead with Byzantium , which is about to premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival. Two mysterious women seek refuge in a run-down coastal resort. Clara ( Gemma Arterton ) meets lonely Noel, who provides shelter in his deserted guesthouse, Byzantium.

THE INBETWEENERS Review. How Nasty Is It Really?

THE INBETWEENERS Review By: RAMA How does the film compare to the Hit TV series? RAMA is here to let us know/ I suppose the Brit-esque American Pie is the right way to describe THE INBETWEENERS and when I chatted with co-scribe Iain Morris, he seemed to be ok with that comparison. THE INBETWEENERS is non-stop laugh riot, this is by far the funniest R-rated comedy I’ve seen this year, it’s raunchy, it’s blunt, it’s brutally honest, and I’m not even familiar with the Brit TV series that it originated from. If Jimbo, Stifler, Oz, and Kev were Brits, they’d be THE INBETWEENERS .. Graduation just wouldn’t be complete without an unchaperoned, uninhibited and unforgettable island holiday with your pals. At least that’s what recent grads Will McKenzie ( Simon Bird ), Jay Cartwright ( James Buckley ), Simon Cooper ( Joe Thomas ) and Neil Sutherland ( Blake Harrison ) think when they book a two-week getaway to a notorious international hotspot on the isle of Crete. The lads hit the re

Chris Evans Has A Many Splintered Thing

Wonderland Sound & Vision and Voltage Pictures are starting preproduction on A Many Splintered Thing , an offbeat film that will star Chris Evans and Michelle Monaghan . The film, which will begin production October 26, is called an “anti-romantic comedy,” and it marks the Captain America: The First Avenger star’s first film as executive producer. Justin Reardon will direct. In the vein of Amelie and (500) Days Of Summer , the film tells the story of a young man disillusioned by love who meets a breathtaking young woman at a charity dinner by pretending to be a philanthropist. Turns out that she’s engaged to a guy who doesn’t like her going on dates. Challenged by the chase, and egged on by his eclectic friends, he feigns a platonic relationship in order to keep seeing her as he tries to conquer her heart. The film is being produced by Voltage’s Nicolas Chartier and Craig Flores and Wonderland’s McG and Mary Viola. Voltage and Wonderland are currently casting the supporting

Vin Diesel Is The Last Witch Hunter

Lionsgate-Summit is in negotiations with Vin Diesel to star in “ The Last Witch Hunter ,” an individual familiar with the talks told TheWrap . "Emmett/Furla Films is producing the film with Aperture Entertainment's Adam Goldworm executive producing and Breck Eisner (“The Crazies”) directing." Goldworm has developed the film since its inception. Cory Goodman ("Lore," "Priest") wrote the 2010 Blacklist script, which follows the last remaining witch hunter who must stop a witch uprising in modern day manhattan. When Summit purchased Goodman’s pitch in 2010, “Wanted” director Timur Bekmambetov was attached to direct and produce the film. Lionsgate and its Grindstone Entertainment Group have a ten-picture deal with Emmett/Furla, which was renewed this summer. The joint venture has lead to a number of films, including “Set Up” with Bruce Willis, the crime drama “Freelancers” with Robert DeNiro, “Fire With Fire,” and “The Frozen Ground.” The n

FREEZE! CITADEL Official Poster Has Arrived

On behalf of Cinedigm & Flatiron Films, it is our pleasure to share with you the official poster for CITADEL , the upcoming psychological horror film by Ciarán Foy. The film won the Midnighter Audience Award at the 2012 SXSW Film Festival by bringing a fresh take to classic horror and raising the question: How can you protect your family from evil when you’re afraid of everything? Tommy Cowley ( Aneurin Barnard ) lives a quiet life in a decaying apartment complex with his highly pregnant wife. The couple is attacked one day by a group of hooded young thugs, and after a shocking act of violence, Tommy is left to raise his newborn daughter alone. So shaken by the events that he’s developed extreme agoraphobia, Tommy alternates days hiding out indoors in his new flat from imagined threats and intense therapy sessions aimed at bringing him back to normalcy. When the same hooded gang, seemingly intent on kidnapping his daughter, begins terrorizing his life again, he’s torn be

JEFFREY WRIGHT Cast In CATCHING FIRE

JEFFREY WRIGHT CAST AS BEETEE IN LIONSGATE’S THE HUNGER GAMES: CATCHING FIRE. Lionsgate® and the filmmakers of THE HUNGER GAMES: CATCHING FIRE are pleased to announce that Jeffrey Wright has been cast in the role of Beetee in the much anticipated film adaptation of Suzanne Collins’ worldwide smash hit novel Catching Fire. Hailing from District 3, Beetee earns the nickname “Volts” because of his electronics expertise. Critically acclaimed and known to theater, film and television audiences alike, Wright garnered a Tony® Award in 1994 for his work in Tony Kushner's Pulitzer Prize-winning epic “ Angels in America ” and reprised his “Angels” role in HBO's 2003 mini-series adaptation of the play, earning both a Golden Globe® and an Emmy® for his groundbreaking performance. Since then he has played memorable roles in films as diverse as BASQUIAT, SOURCE CODE, CASINO ROYALE and QUANTUM OF SOLACE, W, SYRIANA, and CADDLIAC RECORDS . Wright can next be seen with Mark Walhberg,

Wonder Woman Coming To CW

A year after NBC rejected David E. Kelley's Wonder Woman , the CW is prepping its own take on the DC Comics super hero. Grey's Anatomy's Allan Heinberg is attached to write Amazon (working title), an origin story about Wonder Woman's alter ego Diana of Themyscira, The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed. As first reported by Vulture, the project will focus on Wonder Woman as a budding hero rather than the already established personality that existed in Kelley's take that starred Friday Night Lights' Adrianne Palicki . "As well crafted and contemporized as it was, it was a big and radical shift for viewers to embrace this new idea -- and that may, to some degree, have had to do with why it didn’t make it," Warner Bros. TV president Peter Roth told THR last year, noting at the time that Wonder Woman's future at another network was to be determined. The CW's Amazon is in the early stages of development and there is no script order attached

Renee Zellweger Has 4 1/2 Minutes

Actor-turned-director story numero uno of the day: Though Renee Zellweger has occasionally dipped her toes into the producing waters on films she works on, she hasn’t shown much interest in directing. But apparently she was just keeping it quiet, as the actress has now signed on to star in and shoot 4 1/2 Minutes . While lots of people get their first taste of megaphone wielding via shorts, that’s actually the title of a new comedy and not the running time. Written by Warrior’s Anthony Tambakis, the plot will be based on the life of real-life stand-up comic Dov Davidoff (who worked on the story). Johnny Knoxville will star as Jimmy Bennett, a commitment-shy comedian whose life is one big disaster area. But then he takes a job looking after the genius child spawned by single mother PJ Anderson (Zellweger). Assuming everything comes together, Zellweger will be calling action for the first time in New York next February. Please Leave A Comment- Source- Empire

Heavy Metal TV Series Teaser Trailer

Remember that live-action Heavy Metal TV series we heard about early last year? Well, it's almost here—and we have a bone-crunching new trailer to prove it. The series, based on the French sci-fi fantasy comic Metal Hurlant Chronicles , will be broken up into two 12-episode seasons featuring 30-minute episodes. It's being produced in France, and creators We Productions and United Humanoids are lining up worldwide distribution deals to bring the series to additional markets. No U.S. distribution agreement has been made at this point. The show stars several genre alums, including Rutger Hauer, Scott Adkins, Michael Jai White, Joe Flanigan, James Marsters, David Belle and Matt Mullins . The cult-fave comic was known for its surreal storylines and adult sexuality, was a bona fide hit in the 1970s and remains an influential sci-fi property to this day.

Safe House Sequel In The Works

Universal is working on a follow-up to one of its biggest domestic hits of 2012, Safe House . David Guggenheim , who wrote the original script while working a day job as an editor at Us Weekly, is back to pen the as-yet-untitled sequel. Scott Stuber is returning as producer via his Universal-based Bluegrass Films. The action-thriller original followed a bored young CIA agent ( Ryan Reynolds ) overseeing a South African safe house who is thrust into a life-and-death adventure when he has to keep a rogue agent ( Denzel Washington ) safe. Directed by Daniel Espinosa, Safe House made $126 million domestically and $202 million worldwide. Reynolds likely would return to star in the sequel, though a source says no deal has been made. Washington’s involvement is less clear because (spoiler alert) his character didn't survive the first movie. Sources say the studio is keen to have Washington involved, however. All parties were mum as to whether the new project would be a prequel

Michael Emerson To Voice The Joker In The Dark Knight Returns, Part 2

Michael Emerson 's latest gig is no joke. The man best known as Lost's über-manipulator Ben Linus and Person of Interest's calculating Harold Finch is taking on one of pop culture's most iconic villains, the Joker , in the upcoming animated DVD-movie Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, Part 2 . In the film, a harrowing adaptation of Frank Miller's seminal 1986 DC Comics series, the depraved Clown Prince of Crime renews his rivalry with an aging Batman, who has just reemerged in Gotham City after a decade. (Part 2 comes out in early 2013; Part 1 is available Sept. 25 on DVD, Blu-ray, digital download and on demand.) "He's one of those great villains that an actor like me likes to play because he has layers — he has a face for the world and a face for himself," the Emmy-winning Emerson says of the Joker. "He is, in a way, a villain who is a natural actor. All of that is that is delightful and confounding at the same time." Playing the unbri

Justice League & Transformers Crossover That Could Have Been

File this one under "Please Don't Let It Die." Comic artist Phil Jimenez pitched an epic idea of joining the ranked realms of Superman and Batman with the Autobots and Decepticons . But it was killed in committee. Here's why ... The tricky world of corporate licensing is the prime reason this dream project won't see any starlight. DC Comics passed on the recent crossover pitch, no doubt due to legal wrangling with IDW Publishing, which owns the Transformers comic license, Hasbro, which owns the master license, and their mega marketing partner Marvel. Any way you slice it, the mere sight of a titanic, rampaging Bat-former, Optimus Prime sporting a Green Lantern ring or Megatron waving a torn Superman cape makes us misty. "Oh, what an epic that would have been," wrote Jimenez on Twitter . "You missed out on Wonder Woman's invisible jet becoming a very cool Transformer." Please Leave A Comment- Source- Blastr Via CBM

Milo Ventimiglia Heads To Crackle

Heroes alum Milo Ventimiglia is heading to Sony's digital platform Crackle . The actor, who most recently completed TNT's Frank Darabont pilot L.A. Noir, will star in and executive produce Chosen , a half-hour drama from creators Ben Ketai (30 Days of Night: Dark Days) and Ryan Lewis (High School). Crackle has ordered six half-hour episodes of the thriller that follows Ian Mitchell ( Ventimiglia ), a husband, father and lawyer who wakes up one morning to discover a box on his doorstep containing a loaded gun and a photo of a stranger he's instructed to kill within the next three days. Office Space's Diedrich Bader , Hall Pass' Nicky Whelan , Awkward's Brett Davern and Spartacus: Vengeance's Katrina Law co-star in the Los Angeles-based original series, which will premiere in the winter across all Crackle platforms. Chosen becomes the latest original scripted property on Crackle, following Chris Collins' longform anthology series The Unknown

The White Queen Coming To Starz

Starz is betting on The White Queen . In keeping with the premium cable network's straight-to-series strategy, Starz has ordered 10 episodes of a drama adapted from Philippa Gregory's New York Times best-selling novel series, The Cousins War . Set against the backdrop of England's Wars of the Roses during the 15th century, the story revolves around women caught up in the ongoing conflict for the throne. They are some of the most ruthless players in history and will stop at nothing to support their own causes and those of the ones they love. White Queen will be told through the stories of three equally driven women -- Elizabeth Woodville, Margaret Beaufort and Anne Neville -- in their quest for power as they manipulate behind the scenes of history. “Phillipa Gregory's novels have become runaway best-sellers with passionate fans the world over, making this a project ripe for reimagining,” said Starz managing director of original programming Carmi Zlotnik. “The per

Michael Fassbender To Star In Comedy "Frank"

For the vast majority of his career, Michael Fassbender has been known for serious drama, big action movies or films without much to really laugh about (unless you count some of the X-Men: First Class comedy moments or used giggling as a self defence mechanism while watching Jonah Hex ). But now he’s signed up for a comedy in the shape of Frank . Lenny Abrahamson is set to direct the film, which boasts a script by Jon Ronson and Peter Straughan (who, possibly not coincidentally, adapted Ronson’s book The Man Who Stare At Goats for the big screen). Frank follows the misadventures of an aspiring musician ( Domhnall Gleeson ), who gets in over his head when he joins an eccentric rock band led by the OTT Frank ( Fassbender ). It certainly sounds like it could be a blast, especially if Fassbender gets to go all Velvet Goldmine (though without pulling a Ewan McGregor, even if he does have form on screen). Fassbender, of course, most recently finished shooting Twelve Years A Slave

Finally Here. The Trailer For Hansel And Gretel: Witch Hunters

We got our hands on the first trailer for Hansel And Gretel: Witch Hunters . The film will be in 3-D. It is a continuation to the fairy tale Hansel and Gretel by the Brothers Grimm. Jeremy Renner and Gemma Arterton have been cast in the titular roles, while Famke Janssen has been cast as the leader of a coven of evil witches that they seek out to destroy. Catching up with Hansel ( Renner ) and Gretel ( Arterton ) 15 years after the traumatic incident involving a gingerbread house, the siblings have evolved into vengeful bounty hunters dedicated to exterminating witches. Over the years, the siblings became expert hunters, famous for their proficiency at tracking and taking down their prey. Although still recovering from their ordeal, their work is relatively easy as for an unknown reason harmful spells and curses do not work well against them. The Mayor of Augsburg recruits them to rid the town and nearby forests of an evil sorceress ( Janssen ) who is planning to sacrifice man

Metal Gear Solid Film Is On The Way

Fans of Metal Gear Solid – and the ongoing saga that is Metal Gear Solid's film adaptation – have reason to celebrate today, as super producer Avi Arad brings glad tidings about Solid Snake's possible big screen appearance. Speaking at Metal Gear's 25th anniversary party in Tokyo recently, series creator Hideo Kojima revealed that not only is the film version back in the works, but the man behind the Spider-Man movie franchise(s), Arad himself, will be producing. This means that Arad has three game adaptations on the go, with Naughty Dog's Uncharted series and Sucker Punch's Infamous franchise also ticking along. Previous attempts at taking the stealth-based action game of spies, snakes and strangely inconspicuous boxes have crashed and burned – Mike De Luca was the last to give it a try back in 2008, but that was given the kibosh in early 2010. With its Sony/Playstation affliations, the studio in charge remains just as you'd expect (that's Univ

Third Hobbit Film Gets A Name & Release Date

Warner Bros. and New Line have set July 18, 2014, as the release date for the third film in Peter Jackson's ambitious The Hobbit trilogy . Additionally, the second film has been retitled The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug . The third film will take the title that was previously assigned to the second film, The Hobbit: There and Back Again . Warners is banking big on the trilogy. And, in sharp contrast to Jackson's The Lord of the Rings trilogy, the second and third Hobbit pics will open within seven months of each other (the Lord of the Rings pics opened a year apart, at Christmas). “We wanted to have a shorter gap between the second and third films," Warner Bros. president of domestic distribution Dan Fellman said in a statement. "Opening in July affords us not only the perfect summer tentpole, but fans will have less time to wait for the finale of this epic adventure." Veronika Kwan Vandenberg, president of international distribution, added: "The

Gerard Butler's Motor City Gets The Plugged Pulled

The plug was pulled this morning on Motor City , the revenge drama that was scheduled to start production late this month with Albert Hughes directing and Gerard Butler, Mickey Rourke and Adrien Brody starring. The film was in pre-production, and the crew was just told to go home. It is an abrupt and chaotic development. Motor City stalled after the film’s backers, Emmett/Furla Films, Envision Entertainment, and Mark Damon’s Foresight Entertainment, realized at the last moment that the release date given them by Warner Bros through its deal with Joel Silver’s Dark Castle turned out to be a drop dead date. Production was to start September 17th, meaning the film could only have 12 weeks of post production. It wasn’t enough time. They needed that studio release to justify all of the foreign distribution deals made for the film by Damon. As a result, they could not secure a bond and couldn’t move forward. Deadline is reporting they still want to make the picture, but they have to do

Goodbye Michael Clarke Duncan

Michael Clarke Duncan's fiancee says the Oscar nominee for " The Green Mile " has died while being hospitalized following a July heart attack. Publicist Joy Fehily released a statement from Clarke's fiancTe, the Rev. Omarosa Manigault, saying the 54-year-old actor died Monday morning in a Los Angeles hospital after nearly two months of treatment following the July 13 heart attack. The 6-foot-5, 300 pound Duncan appeared in dozens of films, including such box office hits as " Armageddon ," " Planet of the Apes " and " Kung Fu Panda ," Duncan had a handful of minor roles before "The Green Mile" brought him an Academy Award nomination for best supporting actor. The 1999 film, based on the Stephen King novel of the same name, starred Tom Hanks as a corrections officer at a penitentiary in the 1930s. Duncan played John Coffey, a convicted murderer.

First Image Of Chris Pine In Jack Ryan

Through Alec Baldwin, Harrison Ford and Ben Affleck incarnations, the character of Jack Ryan has never been less than entertaining and has often been at the centre of great thrillers. Next year, we get to see Chris Pine tackle the sometime-Marine, sometime-CIA analyst in, er, Jack Ryan, and here's our first look at Pine in character. So what can we tell from this? Well, not much. It's not like Ryan has an iconic scar or haircut (unless you count short-back-and-sides as iconic) and looks much like a normal, albeit improbably handsome, bloke. We know that the story sees a young version of the ex-Marine, invalided out of the service after a horrific helicopter accident, become a financial consultant to a Russian billionaire* and get framed for an act of terrorism. Cue Ryan on the run. This still is Manhattan-based, but we suspect there will be a bit of globe-trotting before either Ryan or Pine is done. Also on board are Kevin Costner, playing Ryan's patriotic mentor W

THE ICEMAN Trailer Is Here. And No It's Not Adventures Of Val Kilmer

Here is the trailer for the upcoming film THE ICEMAN. In case you haven’t been following the film’s slow-cooked development, no, The Iceman is not the continuing adventures of Val Kilmer’s narky pilot from Top Gun. It is, in fact, the strange-but-true story of mob assassin Richard Kuklinski . Shannon plays Kuklinski, a man who led a strictly separate double life. To his wife Deborah ( Winona Ryder ), he was a loving, attentive family man and business type who was gainfully employed. But his other existence was something quite different: he specialised in untraceable killings and got his nickname thanks to his habit of freezing his victims post mortem to keep them from the prying detection of the police and forensics investigators. Chris Evans is co-starring as Robert Pronge, who helped teach Kuklinski the ways of the assassin, with Ray Liotta as a mob boss. Ariel Vroman is the director and co-writer who dragged this one to the screen based on Anthony Bruno’s book The Iceman:

The Possession Review. How Scary Was It?

The Possession Review By: MattInRC The Possession is nothing more than cheap cliched horror about...you guessed it...demonic possession. Horror flicks have become so predictable and repetitive lately (with the exception of the disturbing The Human Centipede ) that the genre seems completely out of ideas. The Possession doesn't help kick things out of their doldrums, delivering every single plot cliche available, including the cut-to-black screen followed by the single lower-end piano strike. The movie stars Jeffrey Dean Morgan (The Losers) and Kyra Segwick (The Closer) as recent divorcees whose youngest daughter Emily (newcomer Natasha Calis ) purchases a wooden box with Jewish markings at a yard sale. Soon, Emily becomes obsessed with its contents, remarking to her older sister ( Madison Davenport , Over the Hedge), "I don't feel well." This ought to be the signal for 'something's-wrong-as-I'm-being-possessed' but no one pays attenti
