First Look: Ryan Goslings Drive and Guy Pearces Lock-Out Thrillers

Over at CinemaCon are plenty of never-before-seen promotional material, including for Ryan Gosling's "Drive" and Guy Pearce's "Lock-Out." Thanks to SlashFilm, we now have photos from both films. Check everything out below.

"Drive" is directed by Nicolas Winding Refn (Bronson) and co-stars Carey Mulligan and Ron Perlman. It is set to hit theaters on September 16th.

Plot: Hollywood stunt driver by day (Gosling), a loner by nature, moonlights as a top-notch getaway driver-for-hire in the criminal underworld. He finds himself a target for some of LA's most dangerous men after agreeing to aid the husband of his beautiful neighbor, Irene (Mulligan). When the job goes dangerously awry, the only way he can keep Irene and her son alive is to do what he does best - Drive.

"Lock-Out" co-stars Maggie Grace and is written by Luc Besson. In the movie, Pearce is a man wrongly convicted of conspiracy to commit espionage against the US. He's offered his freedom if he can rescue the president's daughter (Grace) from an outer space prison taken over by violent inmates.

Craven Says Scream 5 And 6 Could Happen If Bob Weinstein Is Up For It

Ready to rehash some old news? In true Hollywood spirit, it’s time to talk sequels before the first film even comes out, or, in this case, the fourth. Right when word of Scream 4 got out, so did news of Scream 5 and 6. Ever since, there hasn’t been much talk about turning this reboot into a trilogy. However, just the other day, Shock Till You Drop posted a report that stated they’ve “learned Dimension Films still has a Scream 5 writing assignment on the table for a potential writer.”

Earlier today I had the pleasure of talking to Wes Craven himself about bringing back Ghostface. You’ll have to wait a bit to read the full conversation, but here’s something that might hold you over; there was no ending our chat without bringing up the potential of additional films and Craven was kind enough to put in his two cents. Here’s what the director had to say:

No, there is no Scream 5 script. Kevin [Williamson], when I first talked to him about this project before there was a script, he had an idea for a trilogy, so we’ll have to see what comes out of that. I’m sure Bob Weinstein is open to it if the script or ideas are to his pleasure. He has very high standards. I don’t think he’s in any rush to do it particularly, but on the other hand, I think he’s open to the idea of a trilogy, so at the point when there is an idea that he’s really excited about I’m sure he will begin launching that next film.

What should we take from this? It’s tough to be sure, but it seems as though Weinstein is the man in charge here. Should Scream 4 do well and should someone produce an idea for subsequent films that are up to his standards, there’s really no reason to think Craven wouldn’t have another trilogy on his hands. The question is, what are these “high standards” Craven speaks of? There’s just about no doubt Scream 4 will post some pretty high numbers at the box office, but the concern lies in how the film will fare with critics and fans. I’ve certainly got faith in Craven.

THE DEAD CIRCUS to Start Filming This Summer with James Marsden, Melissa Leo, Michael Shannon and Michael C. Hall Set to Star

by Adam Chitwood Posted: March 29th, 2011

The film adaptation of John Kaye’s novel The Dead Circus is about to get rolling, with producers eyeing a summer start date. The film stars James Marsden, Melissa Leo, Michael Shannon and Michael C. Hall and tells a fictious story based on the non-ficticious death of singer Bobby Fuller. Written by Adam Davenport and John Kaye, the film is set to mark the directorial debut of Davenport. Deadline reports that Palermo pictures wants to shoot the flick this summer.

Marsden is set to play Charles Manson, with Leo playing a Manson Family matriarch who comes out of hiding to give a few hints to a screenwriter trying to solve Fuller’s mysterious death (ruled a suicide, even though the singer was battered and had gasoline poured down his throat). Shannon and Hall will play Fuller’s managers. Hit the jump for a synopsis of the novel. .......... http://collider.com/the-dead-circus-james-marsden-melissa-leo/83120/

Bill Murray To Play Franklin Roosevelt In Hyde Park On the Hudson

published: 2011-03-29 21:43:39 Author: Eric Eisenberg
When you think of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, what do you think of? His structuring of the New Deal to help our country out the Great Depression? His fireside chats, used to put the entire country at ease? His negotiations with Winston Churchill and Joseph Stalin to help end World War II? How about the time that he blew up a golf course to try and kill a gopher? Oh, wait. That was Bill Murray in Caddyshack. I guess I got confused because Murray's going to be playing the 32nd president in a new film.

Vulture reports that Murray has signed on to play FDR in Hyde Park On the Hudson, an adaptation of a British radio play. Directed by Roger Michell, the film is set in 1939 when the King and Queen came to America - the first time a reigning monarch had ever done so - but the focus will be on the affair between the president and his distant cousin, Margaret Stuckley. Adapted by Richard Nelson, who also wrote the play, the film will go into production this July.

The article believes that this film will have "Murray in serious-actor mode," but I really hope it's not. There's a lot of humor that can be found in this situation and if played to the right pitch could be brilliant. It's also worth noting that the King at the time was George VI, so how about having Colin Firth come back and reprise his Oscar winning performance? Could be fantastic. http://www.cinemablend.com/new/Bill-Murray-To-Play-Franklin-Roosevelt-In-Hyde-Park-On-the-Hudson-23944.html
