BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

From Paris With Love Red Band Trailer

From Paris With Love Red Band Trailer Paris finds a low-ranking US operative (Jonathan Rhys) thrust into a situation way above his level of experience when he's assigned to help stop a terrorist attack in France. He's partnered with a wise-cracking, bullet-flinging, skull-smashing FBI agent named Charlie Wax (John Travolta) who delights in taking out the bad guys with his particular set of skills. Yes, two stories about the director of Taken today (the other is about Dune) and we've only made the Liam Neeson quote joke once. It's like a New Year's resolution! Please Leave A Comment-

Sam Worthington To Sink His Teeth In As Dracula

Sam Worthington To Sink His Teeth In As Dracula Mr. Worthington his on fire right now with the success of Avatar and his upcoming film Clash of The Titans. Strike it when it hot. The good folks over at Latino Review have some breaking news . This is the day that Universal decides what it is going to make for summer 2011. You see, Universal has been stagnant since they got sold to that Cable company Comcast. They haven't been allowed to go to the toilet without a permission slip. And now they realize they need to make 8 big films for 2011. You see it takes at least a year to make a moving picture- and they don't have enough for next year. So there are 14 possible films with 8 needed. And they need to figure out what the freak they are doing quickly. Each of the possible 14 are ready to go with scripts and directors. Some of them you know and some of them you don't. But the craziest one is called DRACULA: YEAR ZERO. Yes I know, un titulo de mierda. This is a period rete

Saw 3D Vs Paranormal Activity 2 Going To Get Nasty

Saw 3D Vs Paranormal Activity 2 Going To Get Nasty I n a cheap shot move Lionsgate and Twisted Pictures threw a curve ball at Paramount. Saw franchise partners Twisted Pictures and Lionsgate have just exercised an option and installed Saw VI director Kevin Greutert as director of Saw 3D, the seventh volume of the fright series. That blocks Paramount, which had hired Greutert to direct Paranormal Activity 2. Both films are set for release on October 22nd, and the move came after Paramount set that date. Meanwhile Twisted Pictures, which held an option on the director from back when he helmed Saw VI, bumped previously announced Saw 3D director David Hackl, who directed Saw V and who will be assigned another film quickly, sources tell me. Both directors have been involved in the Saw films from the beginning. The rivalry between the films began last fall, when Paramount's sleeper hit Paranormal Activity bloodied Twisted/Lionsgate's Saw VI at the box office en route to a $150 mill

Robert De Niro To Take On George Wallace And Midnight Run 2

Robert De Niro To Take On George Wallace And Midnight Run 2 Buried in a Deadline Hollywood story about Robert De Niro's representation (he's just moved from the William Morris Agency back to his old home at Creative Artists) are some snippets about his upcoming roles. Frustratingly there are no details, other than the brief, tantalising mention that it's in "mid development", about a new Midnight Run, but the prospect of De Niro returning to Jack Walsh, one of his funniest screen creations, is a doozy. Paul Weitz' Another Night in Suck City, co-starring Casey Affleck, is based on a memoir by Nick Flynn (Another Bullshit Night in Suck City) at the centre of which is a fractured father/son relationship. De Niro as Affleck's father? And Selma, by Precious director Lee Daniels, will see De Niro take on the mantle of George Wallace. Not the comedian (he's not quite that versatile) but the governor of Alabama and four-time presidential candidate. Wallace was

Will Ferrell Ready To Say "I Do"

Will Ferrell Ready To Say "I Do" Oh, wait. There is this: Word comes from The Hollywood Cog that Ferrell is developing a romantic comedy that sounds similar in tone to an Adam Sandler project, except for one thing: It’s a remake of a little known French film from 2006 called, I Do: How to Get Married and Stay Single which starred Charlotte Gainsbourg, who did some dirty naughty things with Willem Dafoe in last year’s Antichrist. The remake is being developed by New Regency and WAM Films, which is headed by Alain Chabat, who specializes in the French-to-English comedy market. He also came up with the original idea for the French version. The American remake, no doubt, will be dumb as rocks, as the logline indicates: It’s about a 40-something year old bachelor (Will Ferrell) whose seven sisters and mom try to force him to get married, prompting him to ask a friend’s sister to leave him at the altar so that everyone will leave him alone.

Star Trek Writers Talk Sequel and Star Wars

Star Trek Writers Talk Sequel and Star Wars STAR TREK writers Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman have given a few more clues about their ideas for the sequel. They talk about the massive pressure to build on the success of the first film and reveal it will have a villain as its main focus. In a Q&A session in Beverly Hills, the duo mention the classic adversary Khan, previously played by the late Ricardo Montalbán. The character first appeared in the 1967 TV episode Space Seed and returned in the 1982 movie Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. On the setting for the story, Orci explained: "We would never do a remake....it will be some time in the five-year mission. But that is a question. Should we pick them up immediately the next day or should it be later, we are still discussing that." And Kurtzman says the villain will be hugely significant in the follow-up: "I think our idea on this is that the first of any series is about them coming together or the formation. I could

Aerosmith Seeking New Front Man

Aerosmith Seeking New Front Man Aerosmith has begun its search for a singer to replace Steven Tyler -- though whether it's permanent or temporary is uncertain. Guitarist Joe Perry told Canada's QMI Agency that the group is "already getting the word out there. The word's been out there for a while." After his Canadian swing with Motley Crue -- which ends Feb. 5 in Montreal -- Perry said that Aerosmith will "start having some auditions, making some phone calls. Hopefully, we'll have found a new singer by the summer, and Aerosmith will be able to go back out on the road." Tyler is currently in rehab for an addiction to painkillers after a tumultuous last few months of 2009. In his Dec. 22 announcement, Tyler indicated that he planned to "enthusiastically be writing, recording and performing with Aerosmith as soon as things are handled." Perry, however, contends that it may take awhile for those things to be handled, longer than he and the rest
