Kirsten Dunst, Adam Scott, Lizzy Caplan and Casey Wilson to Star in Will Ferrell-Produced Comedy

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: May 2nd, 2011

A quartet of actors are set to star in a new indie comedy being produced by Will Ferrell and Adam McKay. Kirsten Dunst, Adam Scott, Lizzy Caplan and Casey Wilson are all attached to star in a comedy written and directed by Leslye Headland (TV’s Terriers) that has the working title of Bachelorette (which is most likely going to change). The story centers on three best friends who are asked to be the bridesmaids of a woman they called “Pigface” in high school. THR reports that Dunst and Caplan will play two of the best friends, with Wilson taking on the role of the bride-to-be. The character breakdown describes Dunst’s character as “your best friend and your worst enemy,” whereas Caplan’s role is characterized as “having a Playboy bunny body with a Larry David brain.”

This marks a reunion of sorts for Caplan and Scott, who both starred in Starz’s fantastic comedy Party Down. Scott is set to play Caplan’s high school crush, who “shows up to the wedding with a beautiful and much younger date.” The project was previously an off-Broadway play that caught the attention of McKay, who decided to set it up as a film at his and Ferrell’s Gary Sanchez production company. The budget is set at around $3 million with filming hoping to get underway this summer in New York. Scott is currently killing each week on NBC’s Parks and Recreation, and Casey Wilson is starring on ABC’s Happy Endings.

Anna Faris Circling THE DICTATOR; Greta Gerwig and Orlando Bloom Join LOLA VERSUS

by Jason Barr   Posted: May 2nd, 2011

We have a few casting tidbits to bring you tonight. First up, Deadline reports that Anna Faris has been offered the female lead in director Larry Charles’ (Borat) comedy The Dictator. Already starring Sacha Baron Cohen and Ben Kingsley, the film tells the story of a dictator who risks his life to keep democracy out of his finely oppressed country. Cohen will take on dual roles in the film as both the dictator and a goat herder whereas Faris’ character would be the owner of an organic food store who begins to turn around Cohen’s dictatorial outlook. You may remember that Faris faced competition in the form of Kristen Wiig and Gillian Jacobs for the role. The Dictator is scheduled to be released by Paramount on May 11th, 2012.

Next up, Variety confirms that both Greta Gerwig (Arthur) and Orlando Bloom are settling in for roles in the romantic comedy Lola Versus. Per the report, Gerwig has already accepted the starring role of a girl who is dumped only weeks before her wedding by her college sweetheart. Bloom is still in final negotiations to join the film for an unspecified role (perhaps Gerwig’s aforementioned college sweetheart?). Daryl Wein (Breaking Upwards) is set to direct the script he co-wrote with Zoe Lister-Jones. Production on the film is scheduled to begin in New York next month.

Paul W.S. Anderson to Direct Volcanic Disaster Flick POMPEII

by Brendan Bettinger    Posted: May 2nd, 2011

Paul W.S. Anderson (Resident Evil: Afterlife) has signed on to direct Pompeii, an disaster film set in ancient Rome as Mt. Vesuvius erupts and destroys the titular city.  The vaguely Romanic Constantin Filmwill finance a reportedly large budget as scripted by Lee Batchler and Janet Scott Batchler (Batman Forever). Summit will distribute the film in America with plans to auction off Pompeii to foreign buyers at the Cannes Film Festival later this month.  Pompeii reunites Summit, Constantin, and Anderson after The Three Musketeers.  Anderson is in post-production on Musketeers preparing for release on October 14.  Sources suggest Pompeii will shoot in spring 2012.

Hugo Weaving Returns for "The Hobbit"

Posted: May 1st, 2011 by WorstPreviews.com Staff


It has been rumored that Hugo Weaving will be reprising his role as Elrond in "The Hobbit" prequels, but nothing has ever been confirmed.

Today, director Peter Jackson posted a photo of himself and Weaving on the set of the films. Jackson claims that the actor just stopped by to visit, writing: "An old friend came to visit me on set today..." Check out the photo below.

About two years ago, Guillermo del Toro, who was planning to direct the films at the time, said that Weaving would be back. "Ian McKellen is back, [and] Hugo Weaving in the roles they originated in the trilogy," he stated.

The prequels are currently being filmed back-to-back in New Zealand. The first installment will hit theaters in December 2012. The second in December of 2013.

Linda Hamilton and Michael Biehn to Return for "Terminator 5"?

Posted: April 30th, 2011 by WorstPreviews.com Staff


We already know that "Fast Five" director Justin Lin is going around town pitching the fifth "Terminator" film, which has Arnold Schwarzenegger attached to star.

There's still no script, but LatinoReview just learned that in addition to Schwarzenegger, the entire original cast will return as well. The site wasn't able to get any names, but assumes that their source was talking about Linda Hamilton and Michael Biehn.

Since the new film is rumored to take place in the present, it's tough to imagine that Edward Furlong would return to play John Connor.

To find out if there is any truth to this, AITH reached out to Biehn, who said that he doesn't know anything about this. The actor could be lying or maybe Kyle Reese doesn't fit into the new storyline. Stay tuned.

Mariah Carey & Nick Cannon Welcome Twins!

Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon celebrated their fourth wedding anniversary with two very special people - their newborn twins!

The 41-year-old entertainer gave birth on Saturday (April 30) - their wedding date - to a boy and girl at a Los Angeles hospital at 12:07 p.m. EST, her rep told the AP.

The girl was born first, weighing 5 lbs., 3 oz., and 18 inches, while her brother weighed in at 5 lbs., 6 oz., and 19 inches.

“My wife just gave me the most incredible anniversary gift ever in life! I won’t ever be able to top this!” Nick, 30, tweeted.

Mariah’s rep, who said the couple hasn’t named the twins just yet, also revealed they listened to Mariah’s hit song, “We Belong Together,” after the children were born.

Congrats to the happy parents!!! http://justjared.buzznet.com/2011/04/30/mariah-carey-nick-cannon-welcome-twins/

Jane Lynch Joins THE THREE STOOGES as Head Nun

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: April 27th, 2011

Things are moving right along for the Farrelly brothers’ long-gestating The Three Stooges film. After finally locking up their cast with Will Sasso set as Curly, Sean Hayes signed on as Larry, and Chris Diamantopoulos in talks to play Moe, Jane Lynch has just signed on to play the head nun in the film. Deadline reports that Lynch will play Mother Superior in what will presumably be the opening “episode” of the flick. The Farrelly brothers previously mentioned that rather than doing a biopic, The Three Stooges will be comprised of three brand new episodes featuring the lovable characters.

The first episode apparently involves the Stooges’ time at an orphanage, where they (naturally) cause all kinds of kooky havoc and disruption. Cher was previously rumored to be involved with the role, but it looks like the powers-that-be have settled on Lynch. In addition to the aforementioned cast, Sofia Vergara is in talks for a leading female role in the film, though details on her character are unknown at this time. To catch up on the problematic history of the project, click here.

Armie Hammer in Talks to Join Johnny Depp in THE LONE RANGER

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: April 27th, 2011

Merely a week ago, it was reported that Ryan Gosling was working on trying to fit Disney’s The Lone Ranger into his schedule, with the actor eyeing the title role opposite Johnny Depp’s Tonto. After quickly ending the talks, with Gosling unable to work the film around his schedule, we now have another actor in the running for the role: The Social Network’s Armie Hammer.

Deadline reports that Hammer is in early talks to join the project, with Gore Verbinski (the first three Pirates of the Caribbean films) at the helm. The story will supposedly focus on Depp’s Tonto, using him as an “unreliable narrator.” While the prospect of Gosling and Depp bantering in a fun adventure flick was enticing, Hammer seems to be a great choice as well. His fantastic work in The Social Network garnered him enough attention to secure a starring role in Clint Eastwood’s J. Edgar opposite Leonardo DiCaprio, which is currently filming, and the actor is also attached to Tarsem Singh’s Snow White flick.

Kristen Wiig, Anna Faris and Gillian Jacobs in the Running for Female Lead in THE DICTATOR Opposite Sacha Baron Cohen

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: April 27th, 2011

Casting for the next Sacha Baron Cohen film The Dictator is heating up, with producers looking to fill the part of the female lead. Kristen Wiig, Anna Faris and Gillian Jacobs (Community) are among the frontrunners to play opposite Baron Cohen in the Borat-esque comedy. Larry Charles, who also helmed Borat and Bruno, is directing the film which tells the “heroic story of a dictator who risked his life to ensure that democracy would never come to the country he so lovingly oppressed,” with Cohen playing a dictator who gets lost in the US.

THR reports that Jason Mantzoukas (The League) is already attached to play Cohen’s sidekick in the film. Producers are looking for actors with very strong improvisational skills, and understandably so given the unscripted nature of Borat and Bruno. The report stresses that Cohen and Co. are still looking to fill the female lead role, and it could very well end up going to someone other than Wiig, Faris or Jacobs. Filming is set to begin in May in New York and Morocco for a May 11^th, 2012 release date.

David Lindsay-Abaire Adapting His Play GOOD PEOPLE for Focus Features; Frances McDormand to Star

by Brendan Bettinger    Posted: April 27th, 2011

David Lindsay-Abaire (Rabbit Hole) opened Good People last month on Broadway, and he’s in negotiations to cash in the rave reviews for a script deal with Focus Features.  24 Frames hears Frances McDormand is attached to reprise her role as Margie Walsh from the stage production.  Lindsay-Abaire, a Boston native, set the drama in the working-class, predominantly Irish neighborhood Southie.  Margie is a high school dropout and single mother of a mentally disabled daughter who struggles to make ends meet.  Tate Donovan (Damages) plays a successful former classmate of Margie’s — their relationship anchors the class politics explored in the production.  It is not specified if Donovan or other cast members are involved in the talks with Focus; Dan Jinks (Milk) is on board as producer.

Jeremy Renner, Jennifer Lopez, Wanda Sykes, Aziz Ansari and More Join Voice Cast of ICE AGE: CONTINENTAL DRIFT

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: April 26th, 2011

Hot off the heels of being named the lead in The Bourne Legacy, Jeremy Renner has been tapped to join the voice cast of Ice Age: Continental Drift alongside fellow additions Jennifer Lopez, Wanda Sykes, Aziz Ansari, Keke Palmer and Drake. Returning for the fourth film in the Ice Age series are franchise staples Ray Romano, Queen Latifah, Denis Leary, John Leguizamo, Seann William Scott and Josh Peck.

THR reports that Renner will portray Gutt, “a self-styled master of the high seas” while Lopez will take on the role of Shira, a sabre tooth and love interest for Leary’s character. Ice Age: Continental Drift is slated for July 13^th, 2012, and given the commercial success of the franchise it’s safe to assume that more sequels will follow.

"Cyborg" Remake in the Works

Posted: April 26th, 2011 by WorstPreviews.com Staff


AICN has learned that "Cyborg" director Albert Pyun is planning to remake his own 1989 movie, which starred Jean-Claude Van Damme as a mercenary tracking a cyborg through a post-apocalyptic America.

Pyun told the site that he's currently in an "acquisition process" with MGM, but already has the financial backing of the same company that funded "Donnie Darko," "Memento" and "Monster."

A script has yet to be finished, but Pyun promises that there will be more "car/vehicle mayhem" with more emphasis on practical effects rather than CGI. At this point, Vince Klyn and Terrie Batson, who played the villain and the love interest in the original 1989 film, are already onboard for the remake. The helmer is hoping to also work out deals with Rutger Hauer and Michael Dudikoff.

"Scream 5" May Not Happen

Posted: April 25th, 2011 by WorstPreviews.com Staff


When "Scream 4" was announced, the plan was to develop a new trilogy that would remain close to the original three films. The fourth installment recently hit theaters, grossing $18 million. It will definitely make its money back, but Dimension Films were hoping to at least top the opening numbers of the second ($33 million) and third ($35 million) films.

E! Online believes that "Scream 4" failed not because of its quality, but because it's a sequel. "If 'Scream 4' proved anything, it's that horror reboots have a better chance of survival than continuing sagas," said the site. "If there is a 'Scream 5,' expect it to be re-titled 'Scream,' and don't expect David Arquette, Courteney Cox or Neve Campbell to return unless it's in a cameo."

Moviehole reached out to its contact with ties to the studio, who said that "Scream 5" will likely not happen. "The 'Scream' franchise will likely end here, at least for the moment," said the contact, adding that it may have a future as a direct-to-DVD franchise.

Alex Winter Says "Bill and Ted 3" Script is Finished

Posted: April 25th, 2011 by WorstPreviews.com Staff


On his Twitter page, "Bill and Ted" star Alex Winter has confirmed that the script for the third movie has been written and is now in his hands. "Just got the script," he wrote. "And now to read..."

About three weeks ago, Keanu Reeves said that the script, written by Chris Matheson and Ed Solomon (Excellent Adventure, Bogus Journey), is six weeks from completion. So it looks like things are moving forward at a fast pace.

So what's the story about? Reeves explained: "When we last got together, part of it was that Bill and Ted were supposed to have written the song that saved the world, and it hasn't happened. So they've now become kind of possessed by trying to do that. Then there's an element of time and they have to go back."

THE KILLING Star Joel Kinnaman Joins Denzel Washington and Ryan Reynolds in SAFE HOUSE

by Brendan Bettinger    Posted: April 25th, 2011

The new AMC series The Killing is host to fine some acting — too fine to be confined to television.  Tonight, it was reported Mireille Enos is in talks to join Brad Pitt in World War Z; now Heat Vision adds that her Killing co-star Joel Kinnaman will star opposite Denzel Washington, Ryan Reynolds, Tim McGraw, Brendan Gleeson, Ruben Blades and the recently announced Vera Farmiga in Safe House.  The story follows “the only surviving agent of an attack on a CIA safe house (Reynolds) as he tries to transport a lethal prisoner (Washington) to a second destination before being taken out by violent forces that want them both dead.”  Kinnaman will play a man who operates the safe house in what Heat Vision calls “a key role.”

The Swedish actor first gained international attention last year in Snabba Cash.  Safe House just so happens to be the Hollywood debut of director Daniel Espinosa.  Kinnaman will first be seen in The Darkest Hour, an alien invasion thriller due December 23.  Safe House follows on February 10, 2012.  Filming is currently underway in South Africa.

Olivia Munn, Alison Pill, Marisa Tomei Joining Aaron Sorkin’s HBO Series MORE AS THIS STORY DEVELOPS

by Ethan Anderton    Posted: April 25th, 2011

We already know that Jeff Daniels is slated to lead a new HBO pilot from writer Aaron Sorkin (The Social Network) with Greg Mottola attached to direct. Now the female side of the cast is filling out as Deadline reports Olivia Munn (Date Night), Alison Pill (Scott Pilgrim vs. the World) and potentially Marisa Tomei (The Wrestler) are in various stages of joining the project tentatively titled More As This Story Develops. The new series would follow cable news anchor Will McCallister (Jeff Daniels), who has his own show, as well as the show’s female executive producer and staff.

Tomei is currently inching closer to taking the lead female role of executive producer, MacKenzie, for whom producing the news is what she does best and everything else is just noise. Apparently her involvement isn’t official yet, but it sounds like she’ll end up taking the role. Meanwhile, Munn and Pill are already in negotiations for their roles with the former playing a sexy financial analyst on the same cable network as McCallister and the latter taking the role of Maggie, an associate producer on the assignment desk. Sounds like quite a promising series, with a spectacular cast being rounded up. Stay tuned as this project develops.

The report also mentions Paul Rudd as being a part of the cast, though doesn’t specify which role he will play.

Paramount Picks Up Anna Faris Stalker Comedy

by Adam Chitwood   Posted: April 15th, 2011

Paramount has picked up a comedy pitch from Anna Faris, centering on a troublesome roommate. The actress developed the pitch after recounting a real-life incident that happened to her. No plot details are known at this time, but THR reports that the story revolves around Faris and a new roommate who turns out to be “the stalker from hell.” I’m hoping that’s a literal description, because demonic roommates are always funny.

The pitch was further developed by screenwriter Deanna Kizis (Camp Rules for Montecito) who will now write the script. Joe Roth and Palak Patel are producing through Roth films, while Faris will star in and executive produce the comedy. The actress will next be seen in the comedy What’s Your Number? alongside Joel McHale, Chris Evans, Zachary Quinto, and Matt Bomer.

Ryan Gosling in Talks to Star in THE LONE RANGER Opposite Johnny Depp

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: April 15th, 2011

Ryan Gosling is currently in talks to star in Disney’s The Lone Ranger alongside Johnny Depp. The actor would be taking on the title role, with Depp having been set to play Tonto for quite some time now. Gore Verbinski (the first three Pirates of the Caribbean movies) is set to direct the film, with Jerry Bruckheimer producing. The Wrap reports that Gosling is in talks to star in the film, but his schedule may not allow him to take the role given that The Lone Ranger is poised to start shooting this fall.

Depp had previously mentioned George Clooney and Brad Pitt as possible actors to star with him in the film, but I quite like the choice of Gosling. He and Depp are both versatile guys, and if Gosling ends up with the role it’ll be fun to see the two play off each other in a fun adventure flick. Verbinski previously described the Justin Haythe-scripted story as Don Quixote-esque, with Depp’s Tonto serving as the unreliable narrator for the film. Depp has also expressed his desire to salute Native American culture with the film. Here’s hoping everything with Gosling works out.

by Matt Goldberg    Posted: February 4th, 2011

A red-band trailer for Take Me Home Tonight has gone online.  If you were thinking, “I want to see this movie, but I don’t know if I’ll be able to enjoy it if they don’t say ‘fuck’ and there aren’t any naked breasts,” then worry not!  They say “fuck”, there are naked breasts, and that’s all you need for a cinematic masterpiece.

Hit the jump to check out the red-band trailer.  Take Me Home Tonight stars Topher Grace, Anna Faris, Teresa Palmer, Chris Pratt, Michelle Trachtenberg, and Dan Fogler.  It opens March 4th.

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: February 4th, 2011

As a part of the ramp up to the unveiling of the first trailer for Joe Johnston’s The First Avenger: Captain America during the Super Bowl on Sunday, the first poster for the film has been released. Starring Chris Evans, Hugo Weaving, Sebastian Stan and Hayley Atwell, the film will hit theaters on July 22^nd in 3D. Featuring the tagline “Avenge”, the poster is equal parts gritty and enticing. As an introduction to the character/film, I’d say they hit it spot-on. Hit the jump to check out the full poster for yourself.

New Images of SPIDER-MAN Costume and His Rotted Codpiece

by Matt Goldberg    Posted: February 4th, 2011

The more I see of the new Spider-Man costume, the less I like it.  Granted, I need to see how it performs in action, but these new set photos don’t bode well for the final picture.  The costume makes Spidey look like a cross between an extra-terrestrial and venetian blinds.  Of course it’s likely that some CG work will be done on it between now and release so I don’t want to be too harsh on the design.  However, I’m baffled as to why Spider-Man’s junk looks like it’s rotting off.

We also have a good look at the spider emblem on Spidey’s back.  Like the spider on the front of the costume, the designer clearly thought “Spiders’ legs are gigantic.  Let’s do something with that.”  Hit the jump to check out new images of the costume.  Marc Webb’s untitled Spider-Man reboot stars Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, and Rhys Ifans.  It’s due out in 3D on July 3, 2012.

The trailer for Ceremony has gone online.  Here’s the official synopsis:
