CW Releases Extended Trailer for RINGER Starring Sarah Michelle Gellar

by Ethan Anderton    Posted: May 26th, 2011 at 10:28 am

If you didn’t know by now, Sarah Michelle Gellar is making her return to TV on The CW’s new series Ringer. We reported the series pick-up last week along with some clips from the series itself, but now The CW has released an extended trailer that gives us a much better idea of what this show is all about. The series features Gellar as a woman, who after witnessing a murder, goes on the run, hiding out by assuming the life of her wealthy identical twin sister only to learn that her sister’s seemingly idyllic life is just as complicated and dangerous as the one she’s trying to leave behind. I’m not entirely convinced this is a must-watch series yet, but plenty of Buffy the Vampire Slayer fans will surely want to see Gellar’s return to the network. As for me, The CW has never really delivered the kind of programming I’m usually fond of, but I might give this a try. You can decide for yourself after watching the trailer after the jump. http://collider.com/ringer-extended-trailer-sarah-michelle-gellar/93054/

New Set Photos from MEN IN BLACK III

by Matt Goldberg    Posted: May 26th, 2011 at 10:04 am

New set photos from Men in Black III have leaked online.  This hasn’t exactly been the most secretive of sets as this is just the latest in series of set photos from the film.  But what do they have to hide?  You know a Men in Black has the main characters in sharp suits, there are weird gadgets, and there are some aliens.  Since I imagine that most of the aliens will be CG, so we’re not going to see those, and then there are the jokes.  We know that the premise has Agent J (Will Smith) going back in time to save a young Agent K (Josh Brolin) and avert a world-ending disaster, but because they started filming without even having a finished script and had to delay the project so they could figure out how to finish the story, it’s tough to have hope for this project.

Hit the jump to check out the set photos (although a few contain what could be considered minor spoilers).  The film also stars Tommy Lee Jones, Jemaine Clement, Alice Eve, Emma Thompson, Nicole Scherzinger, Rip Torn, and Johnny Knoxville.  Men in Black III opens in 3D on May 25, 2012. http://collider.com/men-in-black-3-set-photos-2/93041/

Matthew Vaughn on "Kick-Ass" Sequel

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


While promoting "X-Men: First Class," director Matthew Vaughn was asked for an update on the sequel to "Kick-Ass" since a sequel comic-book ("Kick-Ass: Balls to the Wall") has already been put together.

"We're still discussing that at the moment. We might do it," he said. "People forget that 'Kick-Ass' was made for $28 million and now with DVD and everything else has made $225 million in revenue. So it's done great business. A lot of people say it could be like 'Austin Powers,' how the first one people couldn't get their heads around, they all discovered it on video and then the second one was a huge blockbuster."

Vaughn continued: "My theory is I don't know how to make sure 'Kick-Ass 2' is as good as 'Kick Ass 1.' I enjoyed making the movie so much and I loved working with all the characters in it so who knows. There could be one but if I do a sequel to that it's gotta be just as good, if not better."

"Halloween 3" May Happen After "Hellraiser" Reboot

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


MTV caught up with director Patrick Lussier and writer Todd Farmer during the press junket for "Drive Angry" DVD, and asked about the third "Halloween" installment that the duo have been working on.

Farmer has already completed the script and they are in talks with the Weinstein Company to make the movie. Lussier explained: "We would make that the second somebody said, 'Yes, go make it,' because it's a script that we love and a script we're really passionate about and it's an amazing character and an incredible franchise, and it would just be a great experience for us to go back to the roots."

The plan was to make "Halloween 3" before "Drive Angry," but there wasn't enough time to make that happen. And now that they are working on the "Hellraiser" reboot, it may be a while before we get another "Halloween" film.

"Patrick and I had come up with sort of an idea and we went opening day to go see 'Halloween 2,' and we went out of there with an idea of how to continue it," said Farmer. "Hopefully if everything works out after 'Hellraiser' we'll go right in to 'Halloween.' Without cheating and with what [was] created in Zombie's [films], we'd continue the story and do so in a way that sort of brings us back to the tone of Carpenter that we started with."

Michael Fassbender on Playing James Bond After Daniel Craig

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


There are plenty of people who would love to take over the James Bond franchise after Daniel Craig leaves the iconic role. P. Diddy has expressed interest and so has Ioan Gruffudd (Fantastic Four).

Now, in an interview with Michael Fassbender, the actor was asked if he would be interested in the role considering that his version of Magneto was so Bond-like in "X-Men: First Class."

"I really don't plan anything ever because it never seems to work," said the actor. "I'm just [like] - let's just get this film out and see how this one does. And I'm sort of in the middle of doing [Ridley Scott's 'Prometheus']. And Daniel [Craig] is doing a great job. We'll see what happens. I'm very flattered that people are sort of making that link, but – I don't know. We'll see."

Question: Would you like to see Fassbender as James Bond?
