Brian Geraghty, Logan Huffman, and Madeleine Martin Take REFUGE With Krysten Ritter

by Brendan Bettinger    Posted: February 15th, 2011


Brian Geraghty (The Hurt Locker), Logan Huffman (V), and Madeleine Martin (Californication) have signed on to join Krysten Ritter (She’s Out of My League) in the indie drama Refuge.  Director Jessica Goldberg adapted the script from her own play, about “a young woman, Amy, forced to care for her younger brother and sister after her parents have abandoned the family and fled to Florida for a vacation from which they will never return.”
From the age breakdown, it looks like Ritter will play Amy, Huffman and Martin will play the younger siblings, and Geraghty will play Sam, a drifter that romances Amy.  Hit the jump for the synopsis for Goldberg’s play.



Justin Lin in Talks to Direct "Terminator 5"

Posted: February 16th, 2011 by WorstPreviews.com Staff
Soon after Arnold Schwarzenegger revealed that he'll be taking film offers, Universal Pictures got interested in developing a fifth installment in the "Terminator" franchise.

The studio is looking to get Justin Lin (Fast and Furious) to direct and Chris Morgan (Wanted) to write the script. There's no word whether the plan is to bring back Christian Bale to play John Connor (he is not contractually bound), but it's likely that Schwarzenegger will get a chance to be part of the new film. After all, James Cameron has stated several times that it's stupid to make a "Terminator" film without Schwarzenegger.

About a year ago, William Wisher, who collaborated with James Cameron on "Terminator" and "Terminator 2," said that he has written a 24-page treatment for the next film and a four-page outline for the sixth. He said it picks up after "Terminator Salvation" and contains the element of time travel.

Two Directors in Talks to Helm "GI Joe" Sequel

Posted: February 15th, 2011 by WorstPreviews.com Staff
THR is reporting that Paramount Pictures has narrowed down their list of director to helm the upcoming "GI Joe" sequel to two very different candidates.

The first is F. Gary Gray, the man behind such films as "Law Abiding Citizen," "The Italian Job" and "The Negotiator," and Jon Chu who is known mostly for "Justin Bieber's Never Say Never" and the last two "Step Up" installments.

"GI Joe 2" is a high priority for the studio, which hopes to begin filming in June of next year. Producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura has already met with both directors, who have yet to meet with Paramount executives.

New Clip And Images From Joe Wright's Teen Assassin Thriller Hanna

New Clip And Images From Joe Wright's Teen Assassin Thriller Hanna

Hanna is the next film from director Joe Wright, but even though it stars his Atonement actress Saoirse Ronan, don't think for a minute this is anything like a British period piece or even a beautifully photographed film about romance of any kind. This time around Ronan is playing a killer, raised in the woods by her father (Eric Bana) to be ruthless and tough, sent on the run throughout Europe while hunted by the harsh CIA agent (Cate Blanchett) who killed her mother years before. The movie looks great-- it wouldn't be a Wright film if it didn't-- but it also features more violence, action and gritty modern locales than anything we've seen from Wright before.


I saw Hanna tonight at a special screening in New York, though sadly I'm forbidden from saying much more for a while. One my way out of the screening, though, I was given a flash drive that included the first released clip from the film plus some brand new images. You can check them all out below, and see larger versions of the images in our Blend Film Database. Just a few seconds into this clip you'll realize this is not the same Joe Wright we've known before-- and with the music from the Chemical Brothers and the flashing strobe light in the background, that feels like a very good thing. Hanna opens April 8.

***Krysten Ritter, Ari Graynor, and Brian Geraghty Star in AUDREY HEPBURN’S NECK ***Nora Arnezeder Is Ryan Reynolds’ Girlfriend in SAFE HOUSE; Producers Want to Approach Jeff Bridges Next

Krysten Ritter, Ari Graynor, and Brian Geraghty Star in AUDREY HEPBURN’S NECK

by Brendan Bettinger    Posted: January 18th, 2011

Filmmaker Alan Brown (Book of Love) recently completed post-production on Private Romeo a contemporary take on Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet.  You can expect the film to hit the festival circuit this spring, but Brown is already hard at work on his next film, Audrey Hepburn’s Neck.  Brown will adapt the script from his 1996 novel about “a young Japanese man (Toshi) who is obsessed with slender American women, and his gay American friend, who has affairs with a series of Japanese men.”
So far, Brown has rounded up an affable cast in Krysten Ritter (Breaking Bad), Ari Graynor (Fringe), Brian Geraghty (The Hurt Locker).  I can’t vouch for its accuracy, but IMDB suggests Geraghty will play Paul, the gay American friend.  Ritter is linked to the role of Lucy (a composer), and Graynor is listed as Jane, Toshi’s English teacher/affair partner who turns out to be insane.  Sounds like an interesting project, and I’m curious to see who will play Toshi.  Hit the jump for the official announcement.

‘AUDREY HEPBURN’S NECK’ TO REACH THE SCREEN.
Alan Brown Wraps “Romeo” and Prepares Adaptation of His Novel
New York (January 18, 2011) – Principal photography will begin in April 2011 on AUDREY HEPBURN’S NECK, an adaptation of the acclaimed 1996 novel by Alan Brown. Brown, who also wrote the screenplay, will direct for producer David Barrot on location in Tokyo. Krysten Ritter, Ari Graynor and Brian Geraghty will star in this romantic comedy-of-manners about a young Japanese man who is obsessed with slender American women, and his gay American friend, who has affairs with a series of Japanese men.
This will be Brown’s fourth feature as director, having just completed post-production on PRIVATE ROMEO, a contemporary rendering of William Shakespeare’s “Romeo And Juliet” that is expected to premiere on the festival circuit this spring. Filmed last summer in the New York area, Brown’s version of the classic is set entirely at a high school military academy, with the ” forbidden love” element of the original updated so that the star-crossed young lovers are both male and soldiers-in-training. Brown, (who shares screenwriting credit with Mr. Shakespeare) has cast the film with some of the most promising new faces on the Broadway scene, and his two leads Seth Numrich (“Romeo”) and Matt Doyle (“Juliet”) will both be starring in the eagerly anticipated NY production of “War Horse” which opens on April 14th.  Agathe David-Weill produced the film, which also features Hale Appleman.
Hailed by Publishers Weekly as “captivating…delightfully buoyant and full of surprises,” “Audrey Hepburn’s Neck” was Brown’s first novel.  A Fulbright Scholar who lived in Japan for seven years, he went on to write and direct the 2004 Sundance Competition entry, “The Book of Love,” starring Frances O’ Connor, Simon Baker, and Bryce Dallas Howard, and the 2007 drama, “Superheroes,” starring Dash Mihok, which was distributed by IFC.  He made his filmmaking debut with the award-winning short, “O Beautiful,” which is part of the acclaimed “Boys Life” anthology series.
Following “Audrey Hepburn’s Neck,” Brown will re-team with his “Private Romeo” producer David-Weill, on “The Park,” based on Brown’s original screenplay.




Nora Arnezeder Is Ryan Reynolds’ Girlfriend in SAFE HOUSE; Producers Want to Approach Jeff Bridges Next

by Brendan Bettinger    Posted: January 18th, 2011

French actress Nora Arnezeder (Paris 36) is in talks to play Ryan Reynolds’ love interest in Safe House, which also stars Denzel Washington and Tim McGraw.  Reynolds plays a CIA agent who must transport a dangerous criminal (Washington) to safety.  David Guggenheim’s script landed on the 2010 Black List (a collection of Hollywood’s finest unproduced screenplays), but Terry George (Reservation Road) is currently working on a rewrite.  Daniel Espinoza (Snabba Cash) will direct.
This is where the news gets a little more dubious.  Latino Review hears that the producers want to approach Jeff Bridges to play Deputy Vice Director Harland Whitford.  It’s worded carefully enough to be rendered virtually meaningless.  I mean, I want to approach Jeff Bridges to play Executive Comptroller Basil Kasinski in my movie, but it’s a long shot.  Still, the producers of Safe House have more sway than I do, and Bridges would obviously be a fantastic addition to an already great cast.
Arnezeder is apparently becoming quite famous in her native France after an award-winning turn in Paris 36, which showed off her lovely singing voice.  Hit the jump to watch Arnezeder record a cover of “Singin’ in the Rain” in studio.

Sarah Jessica Parker, Halle Berry and Zac Efron Set to Party on NEW YEAR’S EVE

by Jeff Ames    Posted: December 15th, 2010

As the list of actors continues to pile up on Garry Marshall’s New Year’s Eve, one has to wonder if everyone involved will have little more than brief cameos. But who would do such a thing as place the likes of Robert De Niro, Michelle Pfeiffer and Jessica Biel together in a film and then give them little more than 10 to 15 minutes of screen time? Probably the same guy who directed Valentine’s Day.
THR reports the already very large ensemble — which includes Hilary Swank, Sofia Vergara, Lea Mitchele, Ashton Kutcher, Taylor Swift and Abigail Breslin — will have to make room for three more. Namely Sarah Jessica Parker, recent Golden Globe nominee Halle Berry and Zac Efron. The cast has yet to commit to the film, but negotiations are underway with everyone involved. (“So Mr. De Niro, who would you like to play?” “I’ll take the 12-minute role for $10 million.” “Done.”New Year’s Eve is set for release December 9, 2011.

Mila Kunis Covers 'Nylon' December 2010/January 2011

Mila Kunis Covers 'Nylon' December 2010/January 2011
Mila Kunis takes the cover of Nylon’s December 2010/January 2011 issue.
Here’s what the 27-year-old actress had to share with the mag:
On Black Swan: “It was the most intense training I’ve ever had in my life, and probably will have for anything. I lost 20 pounds, so I went down to 95 pounds. I weigh 117 usually, like today. I looked like Gollum [from The Lord of the Rings].”
On her career: “Literally, at this point, my career has been built on low expectations, and when you surpass those low expectations, you’re a winner.”
On shooting Friends with Benefits with Justin Timberlake in NYC: “I’ve never seen people in my life with so little respect [as the paparazzi]… when we were filming on the street in New York it was pure and utter insanity.”
On Family Guy and its fans: “It’s the greatest gig ever… It’s the greatest fanbase ever, but weird. They’re all f—ing stoners. It’s the largest fanbase of anything I’ve ever done, I hope it never goes off the air.”

Kirsten Dunst in 'The Second Bakery Attack' -- FIRST LOOK

Kirsten Dunst in 'The Second Bakery Attack' -- FIRST LOOK
Kirsten Dunst and co-star Brian Geraghty attempt to rob a bakery in this new still from the upcoming short film, The Second Bakery Attack, as directed by Carlos Cuaron.
The 10-minute film is an adaptation of popular Japanese novelist Haruki Murakami’s 1985 quirky short story, which follows the story of a newlywed couple’s post-marriage blues.
“It’s short, but there’s meticulous attention to detail just like a Murakami story!” explained the director “To me, Murakami’s works are universal, and at the same time very Japanese. This is what makes the project so intriguing for me—I did set the story in the United States but the tone of the conversations, the situation … somehow it’s very Tokyo.”
