Raiders of the Lost Ark is heading back to the big screen -- but this time, it’s the really big screen. Paramount is re-releasing the classic 1981 adventure movie, directed Steven Spielberg , executive produced by George Lucas and starring Harrison Ford , in Imax theaters next month, ahead of a splashy debut on Blu-ray. INDIANA JONES: THE COMPLETE ADVENTURES Blu-Ray Arrives September 18th- Paramount has not made any official announcement, but the movie already is popping up on various ticketing and theater websites as an attraction opening Sept. 7. Fandango, for example, has it listed at the AMC Century 15 in Imax for that date. An announcement is expected this week, according to several sources, and website Screencrush reported that its sources confirmed the impending re-release. Paramount did not immediately respond to requests for comment, and it is unclear how wide a release is being planned and what sort of campaign the studio will mount. The studio is releasing the I

Robert Pattinson is attached to play Lawrence of Arabia in Queen of the Desert , Werner Herzog’s biopic of Gertrude Bell . Naomi Watts is starring as Bell, described as the female Lawrence of Arabia for the impact the English woman had in the Middle East and her work in establishing what would become the modern framework for Jordan and Iraq. She was an explorer, writer, archeologist and political attache and worked for British Intelligence during World War I. Pattinson will play T.E. Lawrence, the archeologist-turned-British Army officer who played key roles in Middle Eastern revolutions in the same time period and became close friends with Bell. Peter O'Toole earned an Oscar nom for portraying the explorer in the 1962 classic Lawrence of Arabia. Herzog wrote the screenplay. Nick Raslan is producing with Cassian Elwes. A fall shoot in Jordan and England is being eyed. The move keeps Pattinson firmly in the world of independent film. One of the world’s most recognizab

It’s an Arnie photogasm at the moment, what with the first pic from The Tomb and now a look at the poster for his latest action thriller The Last Stand . The Last Stand finds Arnie as former LAPD narcotics officer Ray Owens, who left his old life under a cloud of remorse and regret after a bungled operation resulted in several dead cops. He’s since settled into a relatively quiet life as the sheriff of sleepy border town Summerton Junction. But then his peace and tranquillity is shattered when notorious drug kingpin Gabriel Cortez ( Eduardo Noriega ) breaks free from an FBI prisoner transport and heads for the Mexican border at top speed. He’s got a heavily armed bunch of mercenaries, a specially-outfitted Corvette and a hostage. So the scene is set for a stand-off in Summerton between Cortez and the massed US law enforcement team, led by Forest Whitaker's Agent John Bannister, is waiting.
