Screen Gems and Lakeshore Entertainment have signed Michael Ealy (Takers) and his beautiful eyes to play the male lead opposite franchise star Kate Beckinsale in Underworld 4: New Dawn. In the script by J. Michael Straczynski (Ninja Assassin) and John Hlavin (The Shield), vampiress Selene (Beckinsale) wakes from a coma-like state after fifteen years to learn she has a 14-year-old vampire/Lycan hybrid daughter: “they must stop BioCom from creating super Lycans that will kill them all.” Ealy plays a police detective who first hunts Beckinsale, then teams up with her. Underworld 3D just started shooting in Vancouver under the direction of Swedish team Mans Marlind and Bjorn Stein (Shelter); the film is scheduled for release on January 20, 2012.


Hit the jump for news on the true nature of Robin McLeavy’s involvement with Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, plus details on the indie thriller A Single Shot.

Ivan Reitman on "Ghostbusters 3," "Baywatch" Movie, "Private Parts" Sequel
Posted: March 14th, 2011 by WorstPreviews.com Staff


THR had the chance to sit down with director Ivan Reitman and ask him for updated on some of the projects that he has been rumored for, including "Ghostbusters 3," a big screen version of "Baywatch" and the sequel to Howard Stern's "Private Parts."


Ghostbusters 3: "There's a lot of talk about 'Ghostbusters III.' And there's a very good script that the other cast members have read and liked. We're just waiting for Bill Murray to read it."


Baywatch: "We still don't have a script that's makeable. I think it's a big opportunity. This is a comedy, and I think we have a very interesting take — a classical idea that will be fresh for the world audience. It's one of the best-known titles that's out there."


Private Parts 2: "I spoke to Howard. He brings it up all the time. There is a great sequel story in it. But I doubt it will happen. If he's going to do another film, my guess is that it's probably not going to be the sequel to 'Private Parts.'"

**First Set Photos from COGAN’S TRADE and SAFE HOUSE **Juliette Lewis Cast In HICK and A SINGLE SHOT **Jeffrey Donovan to Play Robert F. Kennedy in J. EDGAR **Disney Acquires Sci-Fi Adventure THE RUNNER as Directing Vehicle for Marc Forster

Juliette Lewis Cast In HICK and A SINGLE SHOT
by Ben Garman Posted: March 8th, 2011
Actress Juliette Lewis (Conviction) has gained a few more co-starring roles in indie titles Hick and A Single Shot according to Variety. We’ve mentioned Hick before, an adaptation of Andrea Portes’ debut novel of the same name, telling the story of a 13 year old Nebraska girl who gets more than she bargained for when she runs away to Las Vegas. Portes herself wrote the screenplay and Derick Martini (Lymelife) will be directing. The pic will also star Chloe Moretz, Eddie Redmayne and Blake Lively, although IMDb suggests that Kirsten Dunst is no longer attached as we previously reported.


A Single Shot is described as a cat and mouse thriller between a deer-hunter and some hardened criminals out for his blood. Lewis will star alongside Alessandro Nivola and William H. Macy, Juno Temple and Emily Mortimer. Hit the jump for full synopses.

Jeffrey Donovan to Play Robert F. Kennedy in J. EDGAR
by Matt Goldberg Posted:March 8th, 2011 at 11:05 am

I’m huge Burn Notice dork and that’s due in large part to the charisma and versatility of its star, Jeffrey Donovan. With Burn Notice being one of cable’s biggest hits, I’m surprised he hasn’t become a bigger presence in theaters, although that may be due to a number of factors (e.g. scheduling, preference, pay, etc.). He last graced the big screen in a supporting role in Clint Eastwood’s Changeling and now it looks like he’ll be re-teaming with Eastwood for the upcoming J. Edgar Hoover biopic, J. Edgar starring Leonardo DiCarpio. Donovan tweeted earlier today:


I fly to LA Sunday. I have been cars as Bobby Kennedy opposite LD in HOOVER. excited. working with Mr Eastwood again. Dreams come true.

First Set Photos from COGAN’S TRADE and SAFE HOUSE
by Matt Goldberg Posted: March 8th, 2011



The first set photos from Cogan’s Trade and Safe House have gone online. The photos from Cogan’s Trade are pretty grainy, but Brad Pitt certainly looks the part of mob enforcer Jackie Cogan. The plot centers on Cogan’s investigation into the heist of a high-stakes poker game. With Andrew Dominik (The Assassination of Jesse James) at the helm and a cast that also includes Casey Affleck, Mark Ruffalo, James Gandolfini, Sam Rockwell, Ray Liotta, and Richard Jenkins, I’m beyond excited to see how this film comes together.


Safe House is also an exciting prospect. The thriller stars Ryan Reynolds as a CIA Agent who must safely transport a dangerous criminal (played by Denzel Washington) to a safe house. The flick also stars Nora Arnezeder, Ruben Blades, Brendan Gleeson, Liam Cunningham, Tim McGraw, Robert Patrick, and Sam Shepard. Hit the jump to check set photos from both films. Safe House is due out February 10, 2012 and Cogan’s Trade is also currently set for an early 2012 release.

Disney Acquires Sci-Fi Adventure THE RUNNER as Directing Vehicle for Marc Forster
by Matt Goldberg Posted: March 8th, 2011
Even though direct Marc Forster showed little competence in putting together the set pieces in Quantum of Solace, he’s still in the action-movie game. Disney has acquired the sci-fi adventure project The Runner as a directing vehicle for Forster. The story is set in a post-apocalyptic 2027 where a group of survivors discover a way to send a guy back in time in order to stop a devastating attack. However, he has an ulterior motive: saving the love of his life. Sadly, Hallmark doesn’t make a greeting card for when you want to let that special someone know that you saved their life, but doomed the planet in the process.


Hit the jump for more on the project.
