Fright Night Photos Find David Tennant Ready for Battle!

Jul 6, 2011 by B. Alan Orange

While the main premise of Fright Night has remained intact for Craig Gillespie's remake of the 1985 cult classic, the character of Peter Vincent, originated by the great Roddy McDowall, has been transformed from a cheesy late night horror host to a cheesy Las Vegas magician, both turned real-life vampire hunters. New images of David Tennant, who now embodies this role, have arrived. Check them out below.

Earlier in the evening, Emma and her co-stars hit the red carpet for the film’s world premiere, where Emma got a bit emotional and teary-eyed.

“I’ll just miss being Hermione and getting to live her life and in that world and getting to bring to life a set of books that I myself loved so much,” she told Reuters about wrapping up the popular film franchise.

Jennifer Aniston attends her Hand and Footprint Ceremony at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre on Thursday (July 7) in Hollywood.

The 42-year-old actress was joined at the event by beau Justin Theroux, her Horrible Bosses co-star Jason Bateman, and pal Chelsea Handler.

Jennifer got her hands dirty making her mark on the cement, which she also signed and dated.

Jen was recently on Inside the Actors Studio, where she opened up about coping with her divorce from Brad Pitt.

“I was slightly familiar with the topic,” she joked with host James Lipton about starring in the 2006 rom-com The Break-Up, which she filmed after her real-life split.

“I honestly felt like, ‘What a great way to sort of exorcise some of that,’” she shared.

FYI: Jennifer is wearing a Prada dress with Gucci shoes. http://justjared.buzznet.com/2011/07/07/jennifer-aniston-hand-footprint-ceremony/

Jonah Hill and Mark Wahlberg Join Forces for GOOD TIME GANG

by Jason Barr    Posted: July 7th, 2011

The world is in need of a good “buddy mercenary movie,” or at least that is what RCR Pictures is hoping. Just in case, the independent label has locked down Jonah Hill and Mark Wahlberg as a pair of party-first mercs who decide to take on a terrorist case in the action comedy Good Time Gang. According to 24 Frames, Good Time Gang is being described internally as an action-heavy take derived from a Lethal Weapon-esque formula. Penned by Max Landis (of Fox’s Frankenstein project), the pic sees Hill and Wahlberg’s mission go awry when it is discovered that one of the two is related to the terrorist in question.

Per the report, RCR has yet to select a director for Good Time Gang but counts poker champion Chris Ferguson and company head Schorr (Food, Inc.) as producers on the film. As for Hill, the thesp has been spreading his wings into more action-intensive work with his upcoming role alongside Johnny Depp and Channing Tatum in 21 Jump Street which is due out March 16th, 2012. He also has turns in The Sitter and Moneyball due out this year on August 5th and September 23rd respectively. Wahlberg is currently filming Seth MacFarlane’s feature directorial debut, Ted, alongside Mila Kunis and Giovanni Ribisi. That film is currently scheduled to hit theaters on July 13th, 2012. He can also be seen starring opposite Ben Foster and Kate Beckinsale in the thriller Contraband which opens against Hill’s aforementioned 21 Jump Street on March 16th.        http://collider.com/jonah-hill-good-time-gang-mark-wahlberg/101029/

Over 15 Images from FRIGHT NIGHT

by Adam Chitwood   Posted: July 7th, 2011

A number of images from director Craig Gillespie’s Fright Night remake have been released. The film centers on a teenager (Anton Yelchin) whose neighbor (Colin Farrell) turns out to be a vampire. We’ve seen some of these images before, but a few of them are new. When Farrell’s in the right movie, he can be great, and the supporting cast isn’t too shabby. I’m interested to see the actor’s take on the vampire craze.

In addition to Farrell and Yelchin, Fright Night also stars Toni Collette, David Tennant, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Dave Franco and Imogen Poots. The film hits theaters in 3D on August 19^th. http://collider.com/fright-night-movie-images-2/100963/

Teaser Trailer for Season Two of THE WALKING DEAD

by Ethan Anderton    Posted: July 7th, 2011

We’ve already gotten a look at the first image from the anticipated second season of AMC’s hit drama series The Walking Dead, and with October inching slowly closer, now we have this awesome new teaser trailer as well. It’s nothing too mind-blowing, but it accomplishes just what any good teaser trailer should and leaves you wanting Halloween to get here sooner than later for the second season premiere. The cut to the title complete with some splatter is a nice touch, but you’ll see what I mean when you watch the trailer after the jump.http://collider.com/the-walking-dead-trailer-season-two/100957/

Michael Suscy to Direct Romeo and Juliet Update ROSALINE for Fox 2000 [UPDATED]

by Adam Chitwood   Posted: July 7th, 2011

Fox 2000 has hired Michael Suscy, director of the award-winning HBO mini-series Grey Gardens, to helm their adaptation of Rebecca Serle’s novel Rosaline. Showblitz reports that Suscy has landed the job for the film, which serves as an update to Shakespeare’s classic Romeo & Juliet story. Because it’s been a while since we’ve seen a glib teen high school comedy loosely based on a Shakespeare play, Rosaline will be a contemporary version of the story set in (you guessed it) high school. The film will tell the tale of Juliet and her Romeo from the perspective of the latter’s jilted ex-lover Rosaline.

We reported back in November that (500) Days of Summer scribes Scott Neustadter and Michael Weber would be writing the screenplay, but it’s unknown if Suscy will be using their draft or commissioning a rewrite. Shawn Levy (Night at the Musem) is producing.

[Update: We've been told by Fox that Rosaline won't be contemporary after all, and will be set in Verona in the 1500's instead. This is definitely more intriguing. The logline is as follows: "Romeo’s jilted ex-girlfriend Rosaline tells her side of the classic Romeo and Juliet story in this comedy set in 16th century Verona."]

New Trailer for Gus Van Sant’s RESTLESS

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: July 7th, 2011

A new trailer for director Gus Van Sant’s (Milk) new film Restless has been released. The film tells the story of a terminally ill girl (Mia Wasikowska) who, during her last remaining months, befriends a boy (Henry Hopper) whose best friend is a ghost. Van Sant has a knack for small dramas, and judging by the trailer Restless seems to be no exception. Wasikowska and Hopper look great, and the story is quirky with a touch of heartbreak.

Hit the jump to watch the trailer. In addition to Wasikowska and Hopper, the film stars Ryo Kase and Schuyler Fisk. Produced by Ron Howard and Brian Grazer, Restless is poised to hit theaters on September 16^th.   http://collider.com/restless-movie-trailer/100940/

Melissa McCarthy and Ryan Lee Join Judd Apatow’s Untitled KNOCKED UP Spin-Off

by Matt Goldberg   Posted: July 7th, 201

After seeing Bridesmaids, audiences and critics who enjoyed the film tended to agree that Melissa McCarthy would be one of the breakout stars of the year.  That easy prediction is already coming true with McCarthy and Bridesmaids co-write Annie Mumolo selling a pitch to Paramount, and McCarthy being rumored to co-star with Jon Hamm in a new Paul Feig/Judd Apatow comedy.  McCarthy will certainly be working with Apatow again, but he’ll be directing her in his untitled Knocked Up spin-off starring Paul Rudd and Leslie Mann.  THR reports that McCarthy will play a mom at the school where Rudd and Mann’s children attend and that Super 8 co-star Ryan Lee will play her son.
The untitled comedy also stars Albert Brooks, Megan Fox, Chris O’Dowd, Lena Dunham, Charlene Yi, and Wyatt Russell.  The film is set to open in December 2012. http://collider.com/judd-apatow-knocked-up-spin-off-melissa-mccarthy/100886/

Abigail Spencer Joins Sam Raimi’s OZ, THE GREAT AND POWERFUL

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: July 6th, 2011

Sam Raimi continues to fill out the cast of his Wizard of Oz prequel Oz, The Great and Powerful, as Mad Men actress Abigail Spencer is the latest to sign on. The impressive cast now includes James Franco as the charismatic magician, Mila Kunis, Rachel Weisz and Michelle Williams as three witches, and Zach Braff as Oz’s faithful assistant. The story tells the origins of the eponymous Wizard, as Franco’s character is whisked away in a hot air balloon to the land of Oz, where he must team up with Glinda the Good Witch (Williams) in order to battle her evil counterparts (Kunis and Weisz) who are bent on taking over the land.

Heat Vision reports that Spencer will play a willing participant in Franco’s magic show while he’s performing in Kansas. On Mad Men, Spencer played the foxy Miss Farrell, schoolteacher to Don Draper’s kids and the focal point of Mr. Draper’s super serious bedroom eyes in season three. Oz, The Great and Powerful begins filming in Michigan later this month. We recently reported that Raimi will be reteaming with composer Danny Eflman for the fantasy tale. The film hits theaters March 8^th, 2013.

First Image from Drew Goddard and Joss Whedon’s THE CABIN IN THE WOODS

by Matt Goldberg    Posted: July 6th, 2011

After sitting on the shelf for two years due to MGM’s financial difficulties, director Drew Goddard and co-writer Joss Whedon’s The Cabin in the Woods finally found a distributor in Lionsgate this past April.  The first image from the film has finally gone online and shockingly it shows people in a cabin (cabin may or may not be in the woods).  Details on the plot have remained scarce since the project was first announced but Goddard and Whedon have indicated that the film will be their spin on the “Cabin in the Woods” horror sub-genre.
Hit the jump to check out the image.  The film stars Chris Hemsworth, Kristen Connolly, Anna Hutchinson, Fran Kanz, Jesse Williams, Bradley Whitford, and Richard Jenkins.  No release date has been announced but there are rumors Lionsgate could open it in the fall to replace the Saw franchise. http://collider.com/cabin-in-the-woods-movie-image/100632/

New images from Fright Night and The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn have popped up online.  The Fright Night images provide a couple new looks at David Tennant as Las Vegas stage magician/vampire hunter Peter Vincent while the Tintin image shows the eponymous character and his dog Snowy.  I have no idea as to the context of these images, but they’re after the jump for your viewing pleasure.
Fright Night opens in 3D on August 19th.  The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn opens in 3D on December 23rd. http://collider.com/fright-night-tintin-movie-images/100615/

First Look: Chris Hemsworth in Joss Whedon's "Cabin in the Woods" Horror FilmPosted: July 6th, 2011 by WorstPreviews.com Staff

Thanks to Bloody-Disgusting, we now have the first photo from the upcoming "Cabin in the Woods" horror film, which stars Chris Hemsworth (Thor) and is written by Joss Whedon ("The Avengers" director). Check it out below.

The new film will revolve around two white collar characters who lure five college-type kids to a cabin in the woods. The cabin is rigged with carefully selected props, gimmicks and cameras that allow the overseers to spy and interfere with the kids. The mysterious organization behind this scheme is doing this in order to hold a sweepstakes on just how everything will pan out.

"The Cabin in the Woods" is directed by "Cloverfield" writer Drew Goddard and has yet to seta release date.

Shia LaBeouf Turned Down "127 Hours," "The Social Network" and "Bourne Legacy"

Posted: July 7th, 2011 by WorstPreviews.com Staff

In an interview with Details magazine, Shia LaBeouf spoke about passing on many high-profile projects in his search for a film that he considers a "game changer."

He confirmed that he was in talks for "Bourne Legacy," but walked away from negotiations after realizing that he is no longer interested in making another action movie. Jeremy Renner was eventually cast in "Legacy."

LaBeouf also quit talks for "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" and Oscar-nominated films "127 Hours" and "The Social Network." He said that he is a fan of the movies, but wasn't convinced that they were big enough for him. "I am trying to impress myself. I have yet to do it," said the actor. "I'm looking for Warren Beatty-type game changers."

New Images of Michael C. Hall and Mos Def in DEXTER Season Six

by Brendan Bettinger    Posted: July 4th, 2011

Showtime has released two new images for the upcoming sixth season of Dexter.  The first, featuring Michael C. Hall standing crouched over a crime scene on the Miami beach, could be taken from any season.  (Though perhaps eagle-eyed viewers may spot a hint or two I missed.)  The second is more revealing in its depiction of Hall eying new cast member Mos Def suspiciously.  Or rather, Dexter is eying Def’s character (a reformed criminal) suspiciously, unless these are really insightful behind-the-scenes photos.
Edward James Olmos and Colin Hanks are also new to the cast this season, which we expect to premiere in September on the heels of the July 21 Comic-Con panel.  See the images after the jump. http://collider.com/dexter-images-season-6/100394/

John Malkovich to Star in SIBERIAN EDUCATION

by Brendan Bettinger  Posted: July 4th, 2011

John Malkovich has signed on to star in Siberian Education, an adaptation of the Nicolai Lilin autobiography of the same name.  Lilin grew up in Transnitria, a lawless community between Moldova and Ukraine that still maintains a strict moral code.  According to Variety, Malkovich will play “Grandfather Kuzja, who teaches his grandson Kolyma (played by Lithuanian actor Arnas Fedaravicius) the morals of  “honest criminals.’”
Stefano Rulli, Sandro Petraglia, and director Gabriele Salvatores (I’m Not Scared) collaborated on the screenplay, set in 1985-1995.  The international production starts shooting in Lithuania at the end of August — a few scenes will film in Italy.  Read the book synopsis after the break. http://collider.com/john-malkovich-siberian-education/100382/

BRIDESMAIDS Becomes Highest Grossing R-Rated Female Comedy Ever

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: July 4th, 2011

Paul Feig’s Bridesmaids is the little comedy that could. Despite a modest budget and no A-list stars, the Judd Apatow-produced film has been a consistent staple on the box office charts week after week. Now, after recently becoming the highest grossing entry in Judd Apatow’s library, Bridesmaids has become the highest grossing R-rated female comedy ever (via THR). The film’s current domestic tally sits at $152.9 million, enough to dethrone the previous “top R-rated female comedy” record-holder Sex and the City (apparently the term “comedy” has a loose connotation).
The script by star Kristin Wiig and Annie Mumolo hit that sweet spot of insane hilarity paired with a sizeable amount of heart. The film also owes a great amount of its success to director Feig (Freaks and Geeks) and the tour-de-force cast that includes Maya Rudolph, Rose Byrne, Jon Hamm, Chris O’Dowd and stand-out Melissa McCarthy. If you’ve yet to see Bridesmaids, you’ve definitely missed out on one of the funniest movies of the year. http://collider.com/bridesmaids-highest-grossing-female-comedy/100357/

Colin Firth, Scarlett Johansson For Danny Boyle's Heist Thriller Trance

published: 2011-07-04 12:00:15 Author: Sean O'Connell
Could Oscar winner Colin Firth be leaping from the Coen Brothers’ crime comedy Gambit to a leading role in Danny Boyle’s next picture?

As Boyle snaps crucial pieces into place for his developing feature Trance, a bank-heist-gone-wrong thriller, casting rumors continue to swirl. While James McAvoy reportedly is locked in to the role of Simon, his X-Men: First Class cohort, Michael Fassbender, allegedly will not be along for the ride. Now Twitch Film is going so far as to say that Boyle actively is pursuing King’s Speech star Firth to take Fassbender’s place in the role of Aiden, though we don’t know much beyond the names of Boyle’s characters and aren’t sure how they fit into the overall narrative.

Firth isn’t the only actor on Boyle’s wish list. Scarlett Johannson is being approached for the major supporting role of Elizabeth. No formal offers have been made to either actor, but “who Boyle wants, Boyle gets.”

Johansson’s involvement, while automatically making Boyle’s film a better looking endeavor, also brings up scheduling conflicts. We know that the actress is on the hook for Joss Whedon’s current tentpole picture The Avengers, where she plays Black Widow. Her name also is attached to Jonathan Glazer’s Under the Skin, with Patrick Warburton, but IMDB has that with a 2014 release date.

The chance to work with Boyle should entice virtually any actor to clear out their schedule. He recently coached James Franco to an Oscar nomination for 127 Hours, and the idea of him directing what’s sure to be a kinetic bank heist flick has our pulse racing. Here’s to hoping Firth and Johansson sign on to Trance, but until then, we can look forward to watching them in the equally-excellent-looking Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy and We Bought a Zoo, respectively, when they open later this year. http://www.cinemablend.com/new/Colin-Firth-Scarlett-Johansson-For-Danny-Boyle-s-Heist-Thriller-Trance-25525.html

Colin Farrell & Anton Yelchin: 'Fright Night' UK Posters!

Colin Farrell is one sexy vampire in this newly released UK poster for his upcoming film, Fright Night.

The 35-year-old Irish actor stars opposite David Tennant, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Anton Yelchin, Toni Collette, and Dave Franco in the remake of the 1985 film.

“It’s a cult classic. That movie would not work today,” Dave told MTV last year of the original film. “[The new film is] obviously the same concept, but a lot has changed to make everything make sense now. For example, my character wasn’t even in the original, so they’ve changed a lot and added a lot of school elements, just let it build a little more.”

Fright Night, which is the story of a teen who suspects that his new neighbor is a vampire, will hit the big screen on August 19. http://justjared.buzznet.com/2011/07/05/colin-farrell-anton-yelchin-fright-night-uk-posters/

New Trailer for THE THREE MUSKETEERS

by Phil Brown   Posted: June 28th, 2011

Transformers 3: Blowin’ Up Chicago arrives on screens tomorrow so the taste for trashy blockbusters is in the air. The good news is that there are more ridiculous action movies on the way after Michael Bay’s latest ode to slow motion explosions. Today a fresh new trailer for Paul W.S. Anderson’s glossy The Three Musketeers update has arrived online in all its overblown glory. It’s not often that you get to see a trailer that proudly claims to be based on “the classic novel from Alexandre Dumas” only to seconds later show flying ships suspended by hot air balloons that I don’t recall being in the book. Fan of the series or not, this is one of those trailers that you kind of have to see in a “you’re not going to believe this shit” kind of way.
Hit jump to check out the trailer. The film stars Logan Lerman, Milla Jovovich, Matthew Macfadyen, Ray Stevenson, Luke Evans, Mads Mikkelson, Gabriella Wilde, Juno Temple, Orlando Bloom, and Christoph Waltz.  The Three Musketeers opens October 14th.  http://collider.com/the-three-musketeers-trailer-2/99310/

4 International Character Posters for FRIGHT NIGHT

by Matt Goldberg    Posted: June 28th, 2011

Four international character banners for Craig Gillespie’s Fright Night remake have gone online.  The film stars Anton Yelchin as a suburban teenager who must combat his sinister new neighbor (Colin Farrell) because said neighbor is a murderous vampire.  The posters feature corny taglines but I’ve heard good things about Marti Noxon’s script and I like the cast (which also includes David Tennant, Imogen Poots, Christopher Mintze-Plasse, and Toni Collette) so I don’t really mind if the advertising is unimpressive.
Hit the jump to check out the posters.  Fright Night opens in 3D on August 19th.

Jeff Bridges Still Attempting to Produce and Star in Adaptation of Lois Lowry’s THE GIVER

by Matt Goldberg    Posted: June 28th, 2011

Back in 2006, Jeff Bridges and producer Nikki Silver (full disclosure: I briefly worked for Silver in 2005 as a summer intern for her On-Screen Entertainment, but I’m 99% sure she doesn’t remember me at all) came close to adapting Lois Lowry’s Newberry Award-winning young adult novel The Giver.  Fox and Walden Media considered giving a greenlight with House of Sand and Fog director Vadim Perlman at the helm, but in 2007, the rights went over to Warner Bros and the project stalled.  Variety reports that Bridges and Silver have now reclaimed the screen rights and are now attempting to revive the film with Perlman still set to direct.
The book concerns a utopian society where all memories of the past reside with a sage figure known as “The Giver”.  When a 12-year-old boy is selected to be the new Giver, he learns of the hypocrisies and hidden truths of his world.  Bridges originally envisioned that his father Lloyd Bridges would play The Giver, but Lloyd died in 1998 and Bridges now says he feels old enough to play the role himself.  Hit the jump for the novel’s official synopsis.

Two Directors in Talks for "300" Sequel

Posted: June 28th, 2011 by WorstPreviews.com Staff




Zack Snyder (Watchmen, 300) has been saying that if Frank Miller wrote a sequel to "300" graphic novel that he would direct a film based on it. Snyder is now hard at work on the "Superman" reboot and Warner Bros has decided to move forward with the "300" follow-up with out him.

Deadline has learned that the film is now called "300: Battle of Artemisia" and the studio has narrowed down its list of potential directors to Noam Murro (Smart People, Die Hard 5) and Jaume Collet-Serra (Unknown).

First Clip from FRIGHT NIGHT

by Brendan Bettinger    Posted: May 30th, 2011

DreamWorks has released the first clip from the horror remake Fright Night.  Colin Farrell is especially menacing in the clip as Jerry, the vampire who just moved in next door, as he describes to Charlie Brewster (Anton Yelchin) the raw sexual appeal of his girlfriend (Imogen Poots) and mother (Toni Collette).  The way he purrs “she’s ripe” really burrows under my skin in the most unsettling way.  I’m excited to see Farrell chew his way through the scenery (fangs and all) when Fright Night hits theaters on August 19.
Christopher Mintz-Plasse and David Tennant also star in the 3D remake from director Craig Gillespie (Lars and the Real Girl).  Watch the clip after the break. http://collider.com/fright-night-movie-clip/93730/

Toni Collette to Reteam with Director PJ Hogan for MENTAL

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: May 30th, 2011

Australian-born actress Toni Collette is set to reunite with fellow Aussie PJ Hogan (Confessions of a Shopaholic) for the director’s latest project Mental. The two previously worked together on the 1994 Australian comedy Muriel’s Wedding, a film that served as a breakout hit for both Collette and Hogan. Variety reports that Mental, an Australian production, will center on a family and its “crazy but charismatic nanny,” because crazy and charismatic are the most desirable traits when choosing a nanny. Hogan is penning the script, and Screen Australia will be backing the project. Collette will next be seen in the Fright Night remake, which hits theaters August 19^th.

Fright Night Clip Featuring Colin Farrell and Anton Yelchin

May 30, 2011 by Courtney O.

MTV has debuted the first clip from DreamWorks Pictures' Fright Night featuring stars Colin Farrell and Anton Yelchin. Check out the clip below!
In the film, senior Charlie Brewster (Anton Yelchin) finally has it all going on: he's running with the popular crowd and dating the most coveted girl in his high school. In fact, he's so cool he's even dissing his best friend. But trouble arrives when Jerry (Colin Farrell) moves in next door. He seems like a great guy at first, but there's something not quite right-but everyone, including Charlie's mom (Toni Collette), doesn't notice. After observing some very strange activity, Charlie comes to an unmistakable conclusion: Jerry is a vampire preying on the neighborhood. Unable to convince anyone, Charlie has to find a way to get rid of the monster himself in this Craig Gillespie-helmed revamp of the comedy-horror classic.http://www.movieweb.com/news/fright-night-clip-featuring-colin-farrell-and-anton-yelchin

Another "The Amityville Horror" Sequel Announced
Posted: May 15th, 2011 by WorstPreviews.com Staff


A few days ago, we reported that Hannibal Classics was developing a new "Amityville Horror" film, based on John G Jones' "Amityville: The Evil Escapes" book with plans to begin filming this fall for an October 2012 release.


And now comes word that Dimension Films and Miramax will begin production on "The Amityville Horror: The Lost Tapes," as part of a bigger plan to create sequels to some of Miramax's best-known properties.


The film will be in the found footage-style and will take place after the original "The Amityville Horror" film. Casey La Scala and Daniel Farrands are directing from their own script. Shooting will begin this summer for a January 27th, 2012 release. Jason Blum (Insidious, Paranormal Activity) is producing.


Plot: An ambitious female television news intern, on the verge of breaking the most famous haunted house case in the world, leads a team of journalists, clergymen and paranormal researchers into an investigation of the bizarre events that will come to be known as The Amityville Horror ... only to unwittingly open a door to the unreal that she may never be able to close.


"We are thrilled to return to the mythology of 'The Amityville Horror' with a new and terrifying vision that will satisfy our existing fans and also introduce an entirely new audience to this popular haunting phenomenon," said producer Bob Weinstein.

"Monsters" Sequel in the Works
Posted: May 15th, 2011 by WorstPreviews.com Staff


Last year, a $500,000 sci-fi movie called "Monsters" hit theaters and grossed over $4 million in addition to received great reviews. Vertigo Films has now announced that it will make a sequel to "Monsters" with commercial directors Brent Bonacorso and Jesse Atlas at the helm.


Gareth Edwards, who directed the first installment, will serve as executive producer along with "Monsters" actor Scoot McNairy. The sequel has a budget of around $5 million and will shoot in September in possibly Argentina.


"We're going to keep the same quality and intelligence of the first film and make it much more of a straight genre picture," said producer Allan Niblo. "'Monsters 2' will expand the world created in the original movie whilst upping the action ante."


Niblo describes the tale, set in a walled city, as a story about two brothers finding each other in a world of monsters. He added that the variety of aliens will differ in the new installment.

"The Dark Tower" is Moving Forward But With Changes
Posted: May 14th, 2011 by WorstPreviews.com Staff


Universal Pictures has been developing Stephen King's "The Dark Tower" as a trilogy of films, but recently decided to take a step back and decide whether it wants to proceed with such a large investment. There was even talks of director Ron Howard (Da Vinci Code) taking the property to another studio, possibly Warner Bros.


THR has now learned that Universal will be keeping "The Dark Tower," but not under the same terms. The plan is to lower the budget and Akiva Goldsman (I Am Legend, Cinderella Man) is already re-writing the script with that in mind.


A start date has yet to be announced, but it will likely not be in the fall, as originally promised. Javier Bardem (No Country for Old Men) was attached to star, but that may now change as well. Stay tuned.

Martin Scorsese Confirmed to Remake "Taxi Driver"
Posted: May 13th, 2011 by WorstPreviews.com Staff


About a year ago, it was revealed that director Lars Von Trier (Dogville, Antichrist) approached Martin Scorsese to make another version of his 2003 film "The Five Obstructions."


"Obstructions" was a challenge that Von Trier proposed to his colleague Jorgen Leth, which was to do a remake of his own 1967 film "The Perfect Human." The task was to remake the film five times, each time with a different obstacle, such as making it animated.


Von Trier proposed a similar challenge to Scorsese, asking him to remake his 1976 classic "Taxi Driver." At the time we weren't sure if there was any truth to this, but now comes word from ScreenDaily that Von Trier and Scorsese are "officially confirmed" to work together on the project.


According to Robert De Niro's previous comments, it is believed that one of the obstacles would be to tell the same story but from a point of view of a much older Travis Bickle (De Niro).


"The idea behind this obstructions thing is that you give each other tasks which will move you into an area where you have been reluctant to go yourself," Von Trier told ScreenDaily. "Under protest, you do that and then you enlarge your repertoire."
