BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

Sylvester Stallone To Star In Mario Puzo's Omerta

Decades after he was strongly considering Godfather III , it looks like Sylvester Stallone is finally joining the Mafia in a proposed TV series based on Mario Puzo's last novel, Omerta . Added into the mix is the fact that Antoine Fuqua (Training Day, The Magnificent Seven) is directing the first episode from a script by Justin Herber and Adam Hoff. Stallone will be portraying Raymonde Aprile, considered to be the last great American don. Produced by The Weinstein Compoany, the intent is to get a network to come on board for a full series commitment. This is a big turn for Stallone, an Academy Award nominee for his portrayal of Rocky Balboa in Ryan Cogler's Creed. Omerta was published in 2000, about a year after Puzo's death.

Movie Review: #Keanu

The skit comedy of Keanu isn't anything new, but its pieces conspire to conspicuously entertain. Review by Matt Cummings As someone who's never seen Comedy Central's Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele, the duo's big screen debut in Keanu would seem like a breath of fresh air. Luckily, their arrival is propped up by the best-looking kitten in a film - perhaps ever - and some genuinely funny sketch comedy. After learning that his girlfriend has dumped him, Rell (Peele) finds his world turned upside down. All he has now is his world of movies and marijuana, when his straight-laced cousin Clarence (Key) calls to offer his condolences. Meanwhile across town, a local drug lord and his lair are shot to pieces by the enigmatic Allentown Boys, leading its only survivor - an adorable kitten - to seek a new owner. Eventually, he finds a new home with the smitten Rell, who thinks it's a match made in heaven. Donning him Keanu, human and kitty form an instant bon

John Krasinski To Star In Jack Ryan Series For Amazon TV

John Krasinski is the next Jack Ryan . The Office alum has closed a deal for the title role in Jack Ryan, the TV series project based on Tom Clancy’s popular CIA hero, which is set at Amazon through Paramount TV. In a competitive the package, which includes the former Lost duo of co-showrunner Carlton Cuse and writer Graham Roland, Michael Bay’s Platinum Dunes and Skydance Media, landed at Amazon with a series commitment and the intention to go straight-to-series. While there is no official green light yet, the casting of Krasinski, who had been highly sought after by TV casting directors, would likely tip the scales and help net a series order. The project reunites Krasinski with Bay who recently directed him in the 13 Hours feature. Krasinski, who became a household name with his role as the lovable heartthrob Jim from The Office, has been focused on features after the end of the Emmy-winning NBC series, most recently starring in Bay’s gritty drama 13 Hours. Over the past co

Mads Mikkelsen Reveals His Character In Rogue One: A Star Wars Story

He'd previously gone as far as to say that he isn't playing a villain. Now Mads Mikkelsen has evaded the spoiler police once again and revealed a little bit more about his role in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story . If you consider such things to be spoilers, read no further, young Padawan. Rogue One: A Star Wars Story Trailer- So Felicity Jones is playing a rebellious soldier called Jyn Erso, and it turns out that Mikkelsen's character has what you might call a blood tie to Jones'. "I read the script and it was very beautiful," Mikkelsen told Sky News, "and Felicity is playing this lovely, strong woman and I play her father." We still don't know his character's name, but we're going to hazard that "Erso" is in there somewhere. Mr Alan Erso, perhaps. Head of the PTA at Yavin High. Extrapolating properly, we might surmise that Erso Sr. and his daughter are somewhat estranged, since we know from the trailer that Jyn brough

Movie Review: Green Room

The room is green and your knuckles are white. Review by Brandon Wolfe The Ain’t Rights, a punk band from D.C., are doing an unceremonious tour of the Pacific Northwest in their ramshackle van. The hard-luck quartet – Pat (Anton Yelchin), Sam ( Arrested Development ’s Alia Shawkat), Reece (Joe Cole) and Tiger (Callum Turner) – find themselves playing sparsely populated gigs that net them a paltry $6 a man and are reduced to syphoning off gas to remain on the road. After a mohawked college DJ (David W. Thompson) takes pity on them, he sets them up with a gig just outside of Portland that he promises will pay a decent wage. The catch: the venue is a skinhead bar located deep in the woods. But a gig’s a gig, and the Ain’t Rights aren’t in a position to be choosy. Green Room never really builds much in the way of characterization for any of the bandmates (Reece being something of a hothead is the closest we get), but their situation is nuanced to an almost painful degree. The filthy

Alicia Vikander Is Lara Croft

THR is reporting Lara Croft has been found. Alicia Vikander has signed on to star in Tomb Raider for MGM, Warner Bros. and GK Films. The movie project, which has Roar Uthaug (The Wave) on board to direct, will tell the story of a young and untested Croft fighting to survive her first adventure. MGM and Warner Bros. are co-producing the film, with MGM overseeing production. They acquired the rights from GK Films, who had previously purchased the film rights in 2011 from Square Enix Ltd. Graham King is serving as producer. Angelina Jolie famously starred in the two previous Tomb Raider movies, 2001's Lara Croft: Tomb Raider and 2003's Lara Croft: Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life, which established her as a bankable, franchise-carrying international star. Vikander, who won an Oscar for her turn in The Danish Girl , is hoping for a similar path, and the Tomb Raider movie gives the actress her own franchise after proving her salt in acclaimed dramas. Last year was a

Wet Hot American Summer: Ten Years Later Coming In 2017

Though it suffered very slightly from the same working-around-busy-schedules malaise that afflicted the fourth, Netflix-set series of Arrested Development, Wet Hot American Summer: First Day Of Camp was still a comedy delight and chronologically unsound story earlier this year. Now the streaming service has announced that another follow-up, called Ten Years Later , will hit our screens in 2017. So it's not a sequel to First Day Of Camp , but a follow-up to the 2001 film and still won't quite catch up with the chronological ages of the cast, but nobody cares about that because when you have the likes of Amy Poehler, Paul Rudd, Michael Showalter, David Wain and even (we bet he makes time again) Bradley Cooper , you quit thinking about that and just enjoy the absurdity. No casting has been confirmed yet, though we'd expect those named and a good portion of the rest of the usual gang to show up for the new series, which will run for eight 30-minute episodes. And prob

Will Ferrell To Star In Reagan

According to Variety Will Ferrell is now setting his sights on another former commander in chief. Ferrell is attached to star as President Ronald Reagan in the Black List script “ Reagan .” Penned by Mike Rosolio, the story begins at the start of the ex-president’s second term when he falls into dementia and an ambitious intern is tasked with convincing the commander in chief that he is an actor playing the president in a movie. The script was so popular following its announcement on the Black List, an annual catalog of the top unproduced scripts in Hollywood, that a live read was done recently done in March starring Lena Dunham and John Cho. Ferrell will produce along with production banner Gary Sanchez Productions. The package currently is without a director but will soon be shopped to studios. Ferrell is no stranger to political humor having portrayed former President Bush several times over the years on “Saturday Night Live.” He would eventually took the impression to
