Trailer for David Cronenberg’s A DANGEROUS METHOD

by Adam Chitwood   Posted: June 21st, 2011

The first trailer for director David Cronenberg’s A Dangerous Method has been released, and it’s fantastic. Based on Christopher Hampton’s 2002 play The Talking Cure, the film centers on the relationship between Carl Jung (played by Michael Fassbender), his mentor Sigmund Freud (Viggo Mortensen), and Sabina Spielrein (Keira Knightley), the woman who came between them. The trailer is intense, showcasing what are sure to be some powerhouse performances, as well as a score by Howard Shore. Oh, and there’s sex. Lots of sex. This is Cronenberg after all. Sony Pictures Classics is set to release the film, hopefully sometime this year. Hit the jump to watch the trailer for yourself. http://collider.com/a-dangerous-method-movie-trailer/97866/

"Footloose" Trailer Arrives Online

Posted: June 22nd, 2011 by WorstPreviews.com Staff


Paramount Pictures has unveiled the trailer for its upcoming "Footloose" remake, starring Kenny Wormald, Julianne Hough and Dennis Quaid. Check it out below.

Plot: Ren MacCormack (Wormald) is transplanted from Boston to the small southern town of Bomont where he experiences a heavy dose of culture shock. A few years prior, the community was rocked by a tragic accident that killed five teenagers after a night out and Bomont's local councilmen and the beloved Reverend Shaw Moore (Quaid) responded by implementing ordinances that prohibit loud music and dancing. Not one to bow to the status quo, Ren challenges the ban, revitalizing the town and falling in love with the minister's troubled daughter Ariel (Hough) in the process.

The new movie is directed by Craig Brewer (Hustle and Flow, Black Snake Moan) and is set to hit theaters on October 14th.

James Cameron on "Avatar" Sequels

Posted: June 21st, 2011 by WorstPreviews.com Staff


Fox News caught up with James Cameron and spoke about the upcoming two "Avatar" sequels, which the director will shoot back-to-back and release them in theaters in December of 2014 and December of 2015.

"We're shooting two films back-to-back, so I'm writing two scripts, not one, which will complete a [three]-film story arc – not really a trilogy, but just an overall character arc so I'm pretty excited about that," he said. "We're doing a lot of preliminary work right now on new software and new animation techniques and so on. We're creating a new facility in Manhattan Beach so everybody that's not already dead is coming back."

Cameron also spoke about the pressure of trying to top "Avatar," which became the highest-grossing film of all time with $2.78 billion. "There's always an expectation," he explained. "I had to deal with that after 'The Terminator' back in 1984. All of a sudden I had a big hit movie and it was 'what are you doing next?' But my job is to take the audience on a journey and entertain them."

Naomi Harris Confirms She May be Bond Girl in "James Bond 23"

Posted: June 21st, 2011 by WorstPreviews.com Staff


Earlier this month, we heard that Naomi Harris (28 Days Later, Ninja Assassin) has been offered a role in the 23rd James Bond installment. The role is being described as "Daniel Craig's sexy sidekick," which likely means that Harris will be the next Bond Girl.

ShadowAndAct now caught up with the actress to find out if there is any truth to the rumor. "All I can say is I've met the 'Bond' team, I've met Sam Mendes, they're all wonderful," she said. "I've auditioned for 'Bond.' My audition was really great actually because it's so top secret, the whole Bond thing. I hadn't realized how top secret it was. I've auditioned for a lot of things before but never for something where you can't see the script, it's that secret. I auditioned with a scene from 'Quantum of Solace.' You don't know what role you're going up for either, so everybody gets given a scene from a previous 'Bond' movie. I don't know whether it's true or not that I'm going to be an intelligent Bond girl. I don't know at all but I'd like it!"

Mendes is planning to begin filming soon with the goal of releasing the movie in theaters on November 9th, 2012.

Liv Tyler on "The Strangers" Sequel

Posted: June 21st, 2011 by WorstPreviews.com Staff


ComingSoon had the chance to sit down with Liv Tyler and talks about the sequel to "The Strangers," which has been rumored ever since the first film became a hit back in 2008.

"It's strange. I've read the script. It's been around the whole time, but I don't know how real it is," she said. "Bryan [Bertino] isn't directing it, I don't know what's happened with it."

The last time we heard about "The Strangers 2" was last month when NY Knicks star Amar'e Stoudemire revealed that he will be producing the movie with Relativity Media. Tyler was set to reprise her role, but since she barely knows anything, maybe that's not the plan anymore.

New Photos from "Sherlock Holmes" Sequel

Posted: June 21st, 2011 by WorstPreviews.com Staff


Today we have three new photos from the upcoming "Sherlock Holmes" sequel, called "Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows." The new film stars Robert Downey Jr as the title characters, Jude Law as Watson and Jarred Harris as the villainous mastermind Moriarty. Check out the photos below.

Collider caught up with Harris to discuss his role in the sequel. "It's never explained in the story [whether Moriarty knows that he's evil] and I don't really think it needs to be," he said. "But for me, the character's amoral. He's moved beyond the concept of there being a heaven and a hell and a God and a devil, and there being good and evil. He doesn't believe in it. And if you don't believe in that moral construct, then everyone is free to do whatever they want. He's just doing what’s good for him."

"Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows" is once again directed by Guy Ritchie and is set to hit theaters on December 16th.

Harvey Weinstein Really Wants To Make A Rounders 2

published: 2011-06-06 15:30:32 Author: Eric Eisenberg
When Rounders was first released in 1998, it didn't make much of a splash. Grossing $22 million on a $12 million budget, the movie turned a profit, but wasn't a hit by any means. In the years since, however, in large part due to the World Series of Poker getting high ratings on ESPN, the film has reached cult status and has earned millions on home video. We've been hearing about a possible sequel for years without any real action, but Harvey Weinstein is keeping the hope alive.

THR was present at the Produced By Conference this past Saturday where the famed producer teleconferenced in and expressed his interest in revisiting the John Dahl film, which starred Matt Damon and Edward Norton. Weinstein was there to talk about the rise of video on demand and internet markets for film when the subject of the film came up. According to his figures, Rounders has made a total of $70 million in profits. Said Weinstein of the film, "The video has gotten such awareness. I never make sequels but it’s something I’d like to revisit." Back in December it was reported that in addition to a Rounders 2, Miramax and the Weinsteins (Harvey and his brother Bob) were developing follow-ups to Bad Santa, Shakespeare in Love, Swingers, Clerks, Bridget Jones' Diary and more.

In a world filled with absolutely useless sequels, I wouldn't necessarily be against a Rounders 2. The end of the film, which features Damon going to Las Vegas in order to become a professional poker player, leaves the door wide open for possibilities and while it obviously have to be set more than a decade after the events of the first movie (Damon still looks young, but not that young) it is doable. The only thing that would be a stretch is if Worm, played by Norton, is worked into the plot: that guy is such a stupid, arrogant asshole I can't imagine that he would still be alive this many years later. http://www.cinemablend.com/new/Harvey-Weinstein-Really-Wants-To-Make-A-Rounders-2-25079.html

Naomie Harris Is The Next Bond Girl, Offered Bond 23

published: 2011-06-06 13:14:28 Author: Josh Tyler
Hey remember when Naomie Harris was going to be a big deal? Yeah me neither but I think it was back in 2002, or something. She was in 28 Days Later, and pretty good in that. She’s worked steadily since then, but unless you count her cameo in one of those Pirates movies she hasn’t been in much you’ve ever heard of. Now though, she might show up in a Bond movie.

A rumor first circulated by British tabloid News of the World and later confirmed by Shadow and Act says Harris has been offered a role in James Bond 23. I guess that makes her the next Bond girl, though she’s being described as “Daniel Craig’s sexy sidekick”. Sidekick with benefits? This is James Bond, after all.

The thing is, there hasn’t really been much actual progress on getting Bond 23 made. The movie was stalled for awhile after MGM’s financial troubles, though more recently it’s seemed to have gotten back on track. It’s in pre-production and it even has a November 9, 2012 release date. If they’re actually making offers to Bond girls, take that as another positive sign that this thing is really happening at last.

As for Naomie Harris… she doesn’t exactly seem like the traditional sexpot Bond girl type. It’ll be interesting to see how this plays out, but don’t be surprised if they also cast a Halle Berry or Denise Richards typed actress to fill the hot chick role, even if Harris is in the film. It’s not that she isn’t pretty, I just don’t see potential Bond bedmate as her type. http://www.cinemablend.com/new/Naomie-Harris-Is-The-Next-Bond-Girl-Offered-Bond-23-25074.html

Terminator 5 Wants Paul Walker as Kyle Reese

Paul Walker may play Kyle Reese in Terminator 5

Jun 6, 2011 by Brian Gallagher

 

Last month we reported that Arnold Schwarzenegger is putting his acting career on hold to resolve matters in his personal life. One of the projects believed to be delayed by the actor's hiatus is Terminator 5, although that may not be the case.

It seems Terminator 5 will be anchored by a younger male lead, with Paul Walker rumored as a potential candidate to play Kyle Reese. Terminator 5 director Justin Lin recently worked with Paul Walker on the blockbuster sequel Fast Five.

Arnold Schwarzenegger is still said to have a pivotal role in Terminator 5. It seems that producers are still planning to move forward on the project despite the actor's hiatus. There is talk the producers may lessen Arnold Schwarzenegger's screen time in Terminator 5, which may entice him to come back onto the project, since it will be less of a time commitment.

There was also a rumor in May that Terminator 5 will reunite the original cast of The Terminator. Though now it seems that original characters from The Terminator may return, but not necessarily the original actors who played them. The potential plan for Terminator 5 is likened to J.J. Abrams' Star Trek, with a new crop of actors portraying these original characters.

It isn't known when production will start on Terminator 5 at this time.

Terminator 5 is in development and stars Arnold Schwarzenegger. The film is directed by Justin Lin.

The Dark Knight Rises Mystery Masked Man Set Photo

A new photo from the UK based Croydon set of The Dark Knight Rises has emerged, and it actually showcases some of director Christopher Nolan's action prowess.
