BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

Justin Theroux Talks Zoolander 2

The sequel to 2001’s Zoolander has been drifting along on the edge of happening for years now. Script re-writes, scheduling issues and more have delayed any real progress, but according to actor Justin Theroux – who has been attached to direct since 2010 – it might finally be coming together. Of course, we’ve been down this road before: star and co-writer/director of the first film Ben Stiller told us himself in 2011 that it was “close”. According to Theroux, who played the evil DJ in the original film, it’s still all being worked out. “We’ve got a script for the sequel, and we’ve just been in talks again,” he tells Vulture. “We’re trying to sharpen it and hone it and, actually, I don’t want to jinx anything, but it looks like it actually might be starting to get up and running.” Ah, you just jinxed it, Justin. You know you did. When and if it does finally start the cameras rolling, it might not be Theroux actually calling the shots, as he will likely be busy working on HBO

First Images From Maggie Starring @Schwarzenegger & @yoabbaabba

Maggie promises to be a very different Arnold Schwarzenegger film, unlikely as it is to feature him chomping on a cigar while firing a giant gun. Though that could still happen, the quieter tale of a father caring for his daughter in a terrifying situation is headed to the Toronto International Film Festival and, via Collider , we have some new pictures. The long-gestating Maggie , written by John Scott 3 and directed by Henry Hobson, finds Schwarzenegger as Wade, a Midwestern farm dad coping with the fact that his young daughter ( Breslin ’s title character) has been infected by an (un)deadly virus during a zombie apocalypse. Plagued with guilt and indecision, he decides to forego putting a bullet in her noggin as she slowly deteriorates, choosing instead to spend all the time she has left by her side. See all the images after the Jump... From the looks of these first images, it appears to carry the sort of tone that could stretch Schwarzenegger, who has usually stuck

Our Goodbye To Robin Williams By: Brandon Wolfe

Robin Williams passed away today at the age of 63, of an apparent suicide by asphyxia. And as I write out these words, I still don’t believe them. Robin Williams is one of those guys you can’t imagine the world no longer containing. He’s been a fixture, a familiar and welcoming presence, for as long as I, and I suspect the majority of people out there, can remember. Saying that Robin Williams no longer exists is like saying ice cream or kittens no longer exist. It sounds impossible and absurd. Williams is, of course, famous for being a funnyman and he most certainly was one funny man. With his manic voices and impressions erupting out of him one on top of the other like a Roman candle of silliness, Robin Williams was less a comedian than an indefatigable comedic force of nature. My first exposure to Williams as a child was, as I suspect it was for many, on his television series ‘ Mork and Mindy ”, which stood as his signature role for a large portion of his career. Mork was the

TV Review: The Leftovers “Solace For Tired Feet”

TV Review: The Leftovers “Solace For Tired Feet” By: Brandon Wolfe Man, is this a hard show to watch. Not in the sense that it’s depressing or challenging, qualities that could make its difficulty to endure commendable in a way (and qualities that the show clearly aspires toward), but in its inertia and frustrating lack of focus. As I’ve stated time and again, ‘The Leftovers’ has a core premise that could make for a fantastic television series, but this is not that series. This series is a flummoxing mass of uncooked dough, a collection of murky, half-formed ideas that aren’t as tantalizing as its creators believe they are. It is, in short, very much a Damon Lindelof show, and I mean that in the worst way. There really isn’t a good way to mean that, but I want it to be clear that of all the possible ways it could be meant, I mean the very worst one. After last week’s surprisingly solid outing, which centered its focus around Nora Durst, who has quickly emerged as the most intere

TV Recap: Outlander "Sassenach"

TV Recap: Outlander "Sassenach" By: Suepafly People disappear all of the time. Some run away, most are found, usually. Claire has never lived in one place long enough to own such a simple thing as a vase, and she could not think of anything she wanted more. It’s six months after the end of the war now, but then, Claire performs some emergency surgery on a soldier until the doctors can take over. There are celebrations erupting all around her. The war is finally over. She drinks deeply from the champagne bottle that she’s holding. In her mind VE day grows fainter, but the day she saw that vase does not. She remembers it clearly, and she knows even with the heartache that follows she wouldn’t change a thing. It’s a beautiful beginning to the beloved Diana Gabaldon series; let’s just hope that they get this one right. Claire and Frank were in Scotland on their second honeymoon. They needed a holiday to get to know the people they’ve become after the days apart. The h

Better Call Saul Teaser Trailer

Better Call Saul's delay won't be that long after all. After AMC pushed the Breaking Bad spinoff's November launch (and gave it an auspicious season-two renewal) earlier this summer, it's now set to debut in February 2015. That little nugget of information was dropped in the first teaser trailer (below). The exact date will obviously reveal itself closer to the new year, but production on Saul is already well underway —with filming in Albuquerque pleasing fans with a billboard and co-creators Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould recently speaking with reporters about the decision to hold off a few months. "We could have made the deadline, but I am slow as mud," said Gilligan, who noted that the same labor intensity applied to Breaking Bad will hold true with Saul. "I still feel I'm very slow for television." Better Call Saul has done a remarkable job of lingering in the news, despite the space between the parent series' finale and the nea
