The image actually arrived last week but is now in glorious High res over at /film. Jeff Bridges is looking fittingly grizzly as Rooster Cogburn in the Coen brothers adaption of Charles Portis novel.
I know we are all supposed to love the Coen's but I find them hit and miss, I loved "No Country for Old Men" but found "A Serious Man" sleep inducingly dull. Here they promise a more faithful take on the novel than the classic John Wayne version which is a smart move, and in Jeff Bridges they undoubtedly have perfect casting, so I am looking forward to seeing a trailer.
A lot of great films have come out this year, Inception, Shutter Island, Toy Story 3, but were any of them anywhere near as epic as the upcoming Piranha 3D? The stars don't think so, and that's why they've gotten together to put there support forward for Oscar nominations in every and any category.
Check out Jerry O'Connell, the douche bag brother from Step Brothers and several other cast members most of which I've never heard of as they convince you of Piranha 3D's Oscar clout. Apparently one of the cast members was on the cover of Playboy, that's enough for me, what about you?
The new trailer for Wes craven's My Soul To Take is now online. I've always loved Cravens films, but I'm not entire sold on this one just yet. The trailer didn't really do anything for me, and at this point I think I'd rather see Craven's Scream 4 next April over this.
My Soul to Take, written and directed by Craven, tells the the story of a legendary serial killer in Riverton, Massachusetts who swears that he'll one day return to kill the local children born on the night of his death. Now sixteen years later, seven teens are forced to face the supernatural possibility that he may have been reincarnated as one of them.
Fox Searchlight has released the first teaser trailer for Darren Aronofsky's upcoming Black Swan, starring Natalie Portman, Mila Kunis and Vincent Cassel. If at first the thought of Aronofsky directing a ballet film had you scratching your head the trailer should reassure you of the incredible talent he brings to each film regardless of the premise.
The tone of the film is said to be compared to certain classic thrillers. Aronofsky's raw style is still very much present and there's already a great buzz for the film which will open this years Venice Film Festival next month. This will mark the third consecutive film of Aronofsky's to premiere at the festival, following The Fountain and The Wrestler.
The film will also receive a limited release on December 1, 2010.
Black Swan follows the story of Nina (Portman), a ballerina in aNew York City ballet company whose life, like all those in her profession, is completely consumed with dance. She lives with her retired ballerina mother Erica (Barbara Hershey) who zealously supports her daughter’s professional ambition. When artistic director Thomas Leroy (Vincent Cassel) decides to replace prima ballerina Beth MacIntyre (Winona Ryder) for the opening production of their new season, Swan Lake, Nina is his first choice. But Nina has competition: a new dancer, Lily (Kunis), who impresses Leroy as well. Swan Lake requires a dancer who can play both the White Swan with innocence and grace, and the Black Swan, who represents guile and sensuality. Nina fits the White Swan role perfectly but Lily is the personification of the Black Swan. As the two young dancers expand their rivalry into a twisted friendship, Nina begins to get more in touch with her dark side with a recklessness that threatens to destroy her.
Latino Review has just learned that ridiculously smokin' hot Victoria Secret and 2010 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Cover Model Brooklyn Decker has been cast in the role of "Sam" opposite Taylor Kitsch in Universals Battleship. The casting reminds me somewhat of Megan Fox in Transformers, or more recently Rosie Huntington in Transformers 3, not that I'm complaining.
It was also recently reported that the budget for Battleship is nearing a number exceeding 200 million. Apparently the studio had even considered pulling the plug on the project all together due to it being such a large budget tent-pole with no major star power being attached. But maybe the addition of Decker has won Universal execs over for now.
I'm personally not convinced the film was a great idea to begin with, especially not on such a large budget for an untested property. Then again it's possible Berg will prove all of us wrong.
Written by the Hoeber Brothers and to be directed by Peter Berg, Decker also joins Alexander Skarsgard and Rihanna.
Based on the Hasbro board game, the big budget film is about a naval fleet that must defend our planet from Alien Invaders.
The Media Club was lucky enough to find the Captain America set located within Bourne Woods in Farnham, Surrey and they've posted three photos online. Nothing crazy was actually revealed, but it's something for now.
The Joe Johnston-directed adaptation is now filming for a July 22, 2011 release. The film stars Chris Evans, Hayley Atwell, Hugo Weaving, Sebastian Stan, Toby Jones, Samuel L. Jackson, Dominic Cooper, Tommy Lee Jones, Stanley Tucci and Neal McDonough.
Captain America: The First Avenger will focus on the early days of the Marvel Universe when Steve Rogers volunteers to participate in an experimental program that turns him into the Super Soldier known as Captain America.
It's been 4 years since Brandon Routh was on the big screen as Superman, and in truth Dylan Dog has been in the pipes for some time, but now it has it's own sales trailer which appeared online originally via Facebook and has now exploded all over the inter-webs.
Apparently Dylan Dog is a popular Italian comic book and judging by the trailer it had a degree of influence on the TV show "Supernatural." The trailer essentially comes off like a low budget Hellboy/Constantine crossover although there looks to be a Buffy influenced chick in there as well.
Personally I can't see studios falling over themselves to get this, might even end up as a TV movie or something, but you can check out the trailer for yourself below.
The official US trailer for MONSTERS is now available on Apple.
Six years ago NASA discovered the possibility of alien life within our solar system. A probe was launched to collect samples, but crashed upon re-entry over Central America. Soon after, new life forms began to appear and grow. In an effort to stem the destruction that resulted, half of Mexico was quarantined as an INFECTED ZONE. Today, the American and Mexican military still struggle to contain the massive creatures... Our story begins when a jaded US journalist (McNairy) begrudgingly agrees to find his boss’ daughter, a shaken American tourist (Able) and escort her through the infected zone to the safety of the US border.
MONSTERS premieres On Demand, Xbox Live, Playstation Marketplace, Amazon and Vudu on September 24th; in theaters on October 29th.
Personally I think Fringe is JJ Abrams weakest show to date but it has it's moments and Fox keep on keeping on with it, the end of the last season saw Olivia stuck in the parallel universe with a dodgy wig and this promo suggests a slightly different approach to this season instead of the case of the week format.
Fringe returns to screens on September 23rd and you can check the promo out below
Hugh Jackman appears to have accepted his fate. He'll always be Wolverine in the eyes of the public. So when the opportunity to go "snick, snick" arises, he'd be wise to take the nice paycheck and grow out those side-burns for a fifth time.
"TOLDJA" reports Fox is eyeing an early 2011 start for the Wolverine sequel/prequel. Once X-Men: First Class became the bigger priority, I wondered if a second Logan solo movie would permanently sit on the back-burner. True, Wolverine earned a profit. But it was the second lowest-earner in the X-Men brand-name. As always, there was still a couple of extra bucks to squeeze out, and by that conclusion a couple of cats in the world who didn't find Wolverine to be utter dog-shit. So yes, my feelings were unfounded.
Jackman was supposed to headline the comedy Avon Man following his turn in Lee Daniels' Selma - both to shoot this fall. But he's dropped out of the former (He'll remain involved as a producer) and the latter is still struggling to get financing. So he'll instead spend the end of this year getting into shape for another go-around in the merry world of mutants.
Fox hasn't found some poor schmuck in need of money (or a blind attempt to prove their skills) to direct. That however won't be a problem for long.
