 Clips From The Lincoln Lawyer

published: 2011-02-24 17:53:21 Author: Josh Tyler
Marisa Tomei’s career has undergone a renaissance in recent years, mostly because she seems willing to show up in just about any movie to play “that girl who gets naked and sleeps with the protagonist”. It works for her. Made her more respectable than ever. Those jokes about her My Cousin Vinnie Oscar have even sort of stopped. Hollywood starlets take note: Getting naked on screen may be the best thing you’ll ever do.

Amongst these new clips from The Lincoln Lawyer you’ll see Tomei doing her girl who strips for the hero thing again, along with scenes involving Ryan Phillipe being a total creep, and clip in which a long-haired William H. Macy pretty much spoils the plot of the entire film. Maybe the marketing minds behind the film figure that since the movie’s based on the book, spoilers don’t matter, but if you haven’t read the book yet and don’t want to be spoiled, you might want to skip the third of the three clips below. If you watch, I’ll see you afterward for a quick breakdown of what we just saw.
While all of the Lincoln Lawyer’s trailers have been pretty wishy-washy on the subject of what’s really going on here, is Ryan Phillipe guilty or isn’t he, these clips make the whole thing pretty clear. “You’ve got one client in jail, for what your other client did,” explains William H. Macy’s character. There’s your conflict. How will Matthew McConaughey handle it? Normally he’d take care of business by ripping his shirt off, but this seems like a better, more focused Matt McC. He’s intense, kind of like back in the days when everyone still thought he could act.

The Lincoln Lawyer looks good and, if you’re looking to bone up on the film, check out our dedicated Lincoln Lawyer page in the BFD.

Twilight Director Chris Weitz's A Better Life Trailer Drops

published: 2011-02-24 17:56:22 Author: Mack Rawden
Most people know Chris Weitz from his directorial work on Twilight: New Moon, American Pie and The Golden Compass, but he was also brilliant as the lead opposite Mike White in the underseen Chuck and Buck. Personally, I'd like to see him act a little more, but if it comes at the expense of time in the director's chair, I'm not sure I could support it. When given the right subject matter, see About A Boy, he's more than capable, and his newest is looking like his best offering yet.

Entitled A Better Life, it's the story of an immigrant and his son trying to rise the social ladder. The father, played by Demian Bichir, has his prized truck stolen, but without a license, he can't turn to the police. His son agrees to help him find it, but he spends most of his energies wrestling between the life his father wants for him and the local hoodlums offering the promises of a better life. Here's a look at the trailer put up this afternoon by The Los Angeles Times, click over there for even more on the film…
There aren't enough nice things I can say about this trailer. Moving and well put together, it's the right balance between action, plot and quiet exchanges, giving the viewer a good sense of the story without rehashing blow by blow. There are plenty of other genres I'd take ahead of immigrant stories, which may be why I was so pleasantly surprised by how brilliant this looks. Demian Bichir was wonderful in Weeds, but here, playing a different kind of role, he really seems to shine, as does Jose Julian as his goodhearted but confused son.

There's no telling how wide of a release this will eventually get, but if the final product is half as good as this trailer, A Better Life deserves to make its way outside Los Angeles and New York.

Ewan McGregor Joins The Cast Of Jack The Giant Killer

published: 2011-02-24 18:00:52 Author: Eric Eisenberg
Bryan Singer's Jack The Giant Killer has made some major headway in recent weeks in terms of building its cast. First it was announced that Stanley Tucci would be playing the villain and John Kassir and Bill Nighy would be doing the voice the two-headed leader of the giants. Then it was finally revealed that Nicholas Hoult, who will be playing Beast in this summer's X-Men: First Class, would be playing the title role. The biggest role that remains is the princess that Jack must rescue, but that's on the backburner for now as Ewan McGregor has joined the cast.
THR reports that the actor once known as Renton in Danny Boyle's Trainspotting and Obi-Wan in the Star Wars prequels has signed on to play the leader of the king's guard who ventures with Jack to kill giants and rescue the kidnapped princess. The search continues to find an actress that will play the lead female role, but two very much at the forefront are Adelaide Kane (Power Rangers RPM), and Eleanor Tomlinson (Alice in Wonderland). The long-delayed film is set to go into production this March in London.

Despite my very public dislike of the Star Wars prequels I have always loved McGregor as an actor and he's certainly a fine addition to what's shaping up to be a great cast.

Pretty People Tempted To Cheat In Second Trailer For Last Night

published: 2011-02-24 17:43:27 Author: Eric Eisenberg
Thanks to the complicated sale of Miramax, two upcoming titles - Don't Be Afraid of the Dark and Last Night - have been caught in limbo. Recently, however, the tide has turned and both projects have seen forward motion, the former recently getting an August 12 release date and the latter landing a distribution deal. In celebration, we now have the second trailer for Last Night.

Posted by Miramax on their YouTube page, Keira Knightly and Sam Worthington play a married couple who suddenly find themselves in dangerous situations. Worthington is on a business trip with his beautiful co-worker, played by Eva Mendes and Knightly runs into an old flame, played by Guillaume Canet. Set over the course of one night, the question is whether or not they can resist temptation and stay loyal to each other.

Check out the trailer below.

Simon Pegg Says Star Trek 2 Has A Script

published: 2011-02-24 15:08:42 Author: Josh Tyler
It’s been nothing but bad news for Star Trek fans, eager for the next installment in JJ Abrams’ epically fun franchise reboot. Though the sequel has been promised, none of the people involved have really been working on it. As recently as a month ago Trek director JJ Abrams told everyone here that they still didn’t really have a script. Now, suddenly, maybe they do.

A short time ago Simon Pegg, who played Scotty in the reboot, tweeted this message: “Word on the bridge is the new script is AMAZEBALLS and I cannot wait!!!!!”

It’s hard to know exactly what “word on the bridge” means. Has Pegg just been reading random internet rumors about a theoretical script or has he actually talked to JJ Abrams and hear that they have something really written? We’ve sent out inquiries, we’ll let you know if we get an answer.

Granted, it’s not much to go on, but it’s the first positive Star Trek: The Next news we’ve had… well… ever. I’ll take it. Thanks for keeping hope alive Scotty!

BLUE VALENTINE Director Talks “Epic” THE PLACE BEYOND THE PINES; Ryan Gosling to Star

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: February 4th, 2011

One of the most heart-wrenching films of this past Oscar season had to be Blue Valentine starring Ryan Gosling and Michelle Williams. The film shows, in painfully honest detail, the destruction of a marriage. Williams’ performance got her an Oscar nod, and now the man behind the camera is talking about his next feature. Director Derek Cianfrance said his next project, The Place Beyond the Pines, will be about “the transformative power of fatherhood and the idea of what happens though generations, the things that get passed down.” Furthermore, his Blue Valentine star Ryan Gosling is set to play the lead:

“Ryan’s going to play Luke, a motorcycle stunt rider who finds out he has a baby and he tries to become a father. It’s kind of an epic movie. It takes place over a couple of generations and it’s kind of a crime story, kind of a mystery. I’ve had people tell me they feel like its The Deer Hunter meets The Godfather.”

In his interview with The Playlist, Cianfrance said the film is influenced by the works of author Jack London. He also revealed that they’re in the middle of financing right now and plan on shooting sometime this summer in New York. The director is also currently working on a bodybuilding comedy for HBO.

Jeff Bridges to Play Exorcist in THE SEVENTH SON

by Matt Goldberg    Posted: February 4th, 2011

Earlier this week, we reported that Alex Pettyfer (I Am Number Four) had been offered a starring role in The Last Apprentice and that Jeff Bridges and Jennifer Lawrence (Winter’s Bone) were also circling the project.  Just Jared reports that the project is now titled The Seventh Son (it was formerly titled “The Spook’s Apprentice“) and that Bridges is officially on board to play an exorcist.  The film, which is set in the 1700s, follows Tom Ward (Pettyfer, if he signs on), an exorcist-in-training who is able to see and hear ghosts and can smell the presence of death.  Lawrence would play a suspected witch.  Sergey Bodrov (Mongol: The Rise of Genghis Khan) will direct.

Hit the jump for a synopsis of the first novel in the Last Apprentice series.

Here’s the synopsis for The Last Apprentice: Revenge of the Witch:

Twelve-year-old Thomas Ward, as the seventh son of a seventh son, has no inheritance and is bored with farm work, and even though his new job will mean the superstitious villagers will forever shun him, he is eager to go off to adventure with the tall, hooded man he calls the Spook. His mother, a magical person herself, approves, and the Spook’s teaching is strict but kind. But when Tom has only learned enough to be able to control their house-boggart, he is tricked by Alice, the young daughter of a witch family, into inadvertently releasing and then killing Mother Malkin, a witch the Spook has imprisoned in a pit. This is no polite wicca-type witch, but a snuffling, slime-trailing, cannibalistic creature reminiscent of Tolkien’s nasgils. The story of Tom’s escape from the reincarnated witch’s hideous revenge is full of horrible details, as Alice helps, and then once again betrays him. This well-crafted novel marks an auspicious start for an exciting and fast series for young teens. [Amazon]

***New Images and Clip from Sky Movies HD’s NEVERLAND ***James Cameron Gives Update on Guillermo Del Toro’s AT THE MOUNTAINS OF MADNESS ***New Trailer for PAUL Starring Simon Pegg and Nick Frost

New Images and Clip from Sky Movies HD’s NEVERLAND

by Jason Barr    Posted: January 6th, 2011

Sky Movies Premiere HD just sent over a clip and as well as a few images from their new film Neverland.  Featuring a solid cast that includes Rhys Ifans (upcoming Spider-Man reboot), Golden Globe-nominee Anna Friel (Pushing Daisies), Oscar-nominee Bob Hoskins (1986’s Mona Lisa), and Charlie Rowe (Never Let Me Go), Neverland is described as a “bold new take” on J.M. Barrie’s famous Peter Pan tale.  Nick Willing (Syfy’s Alice mini-series) pulls double duty, writing and directing the film.

Hit the jump to check out a behind-the-scenes clip as well as a couple of images from the film.  Look for Neverland to be released in two 90-minute parts later this year.  The film will air exclusively on Sky Movies Premiere HD.

Here’s the clip [via Sky Movies HD]:

Here’s the images which you can click to enlarge (photos by Patrick Redmond):

Finally, here’s the full press release:

SKY MOVIES HD RELEASE FIRST LOOK IMAGES AND FOOTAGE FROM NEVERLAND

The film – to be released in two 90-minute parts in 2011 appearing exclusively on Sky Movies Premiere HD – is a bold new take on the original mythology of JM Barrie’s famous story.

Featuring The Lost Boys, Captain Hook, The Indians, Croc and Neverland itself, the movie – written and directed by Nick Willing – marks the beginning of the classic yarn and marks the return of Bob Hoskins in the role of Mr Smee from Steven Spielberg’s Hook.

Raised on the streets of turn-of-the-century London, orphaned Peter (Charlie Rowe) and his pals survive by their fearless wits as cunning young pickpockets.

Now, they’ve been rounded up by their mentor Jimmy Hook (Rhys Ifans) to snatch a priceless treasure whose magical powers transports them to another world.

It’s here that the boys find themselves confronted by a band of 18th century pirates led by the power-mad Elizabeth Bonny (Anna Friel), and the Native American Kaw tribe led by a Holy Man (Danny Trujillo), which has protected the secret of the tree spirits from Bonny and her gang for ages.

As the fight to save this strange and beautiful world becomes vital, Hook, Peter, and the ragamuffin lost boys consider that growing old somewhere in time could be less important than growing up.

“The legend of Peter Pan spans generations, and never fails to delight and entertain,” said Ian Lewis, Director of Sky Movies.

“Despite many different interpretations, there’s never been a movie of how it all could have come to be – this is that story. Neverland is a fantastic coup for us and a landmark event for Sky Movies.”

Alan Moloney from Parallel Films said: “The story of Peter Pan is one that resonates for every generation.

Nick has brilliantly crafted something that makes sense of the story we all know and love. He takes us back in time and gives us the origins of Peter and Hook’s story in a way that will open this world up to everyone, no matter what their age.”

JM Barrie originally gave the rights to Peter Pan to Great Ormond Street Hospital in 1929 and Neverland will subsequently be supporting the great work of the famous children’s hospital.

Christine De Poortere, Peter Pan Director at Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity commented, “We’re delighted that Neverland will be benefiting Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity in the spirit of JM Barrie’s legacy.”

James Cameron Gives Update on Guillermo Del Toro’s AT THE MOUNTAINS OF MADNESS

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: January 6th, 2011

When Guillermo Del Toro left The Hobbit, speculation was rampant regarding what the visionary director would choose as his next project. In July, he put the speculation to rest as he announced that he would next take on H.P. Lovecraft’s epic novella At The Mountains of Madness in 3D, with the help of James Cameron as a producer. In September we broke the news that Universal was looking to cast James McAvoy in the starring role, while Del Toro had his sights set on Tom Cruise instead. It appears that pre-production is rolling right along, as Cameron recently gave an update on the project:

We’re very, very actively pre-producing the film right now with Universal. The design work is phenomenal, both the three-dimensional and two-dimensional design work, the physical maquettes, the CG test scenes; the artwork is phenomenal. The fans certainly won’t want for a visual feast with this film. But there’s [still] a bunch of number-crunching and “How you gonna do it?” and “How you gonna make it?”; “Where you gonna do it?” All that stuff.

Hit the jump for more from Cameron, including why he got involved in the project in the first place.

In talking with FearNet (via SlashFilm), Cameron spoke about what first drew him to the project:

One word, one man – Guillermo. We’ve been friends for twenty years. We’ve been trying to work together, really, for that entire time. And it has never quite congealed. We’re both Lovecraft fans. Me from my college days, when I discovered Lovecraft. I think I read everything he wrote in about a month. I powered through it. And if anybody can bring Lovecraft to the screen it’s gonna be Del Toro.

He’s got a real vision for the film. It’s very, very well-developed in his mind. You know, I’m just there to facilitate his vision. I don’t have any strong sense of authorship; zero sense of authorship. I’m just there to try to get it made and help him do the movie that’s in his head.

When Del Toro spoke with Steve about the project at last year’s Saturn Awards, he explained how difficult it would be to get a studio to say yes to “an R-rated tentpole with a tough ending [and] no love story.” This is where Cameron comes in. With his muscle as a producer, it sounds like he’s acting as a safeguard for Del Toro’s vision, ensuring that his film doesn’t get watered down or converted into a more “family-friendly” flick.

Personally, I’m ecstatic to see what Del Toro and Cameron have in store here. While this update provides little in the way of details on the project, Cameron’s enthusiasm is infectious (say what you will about the man’s storytelling/screenwriting ability, but he’s got one of the best eyes for visuals in the business). I’m also quite fond of Cruise as the lead. I found Knight and Day to be a fantastically fun return to form for the actor, and could see this film as his comeback in more dramatic fare.

There’s no official start-date for production yet, but if Del Toro and Cameron can get the budgetary details hammered out, it seems feasible that they could begin rolling sometime later this year.

Here’s a brief synopsis of Lovecraft’s novella:

The story is written in first-person perspective by the geologist William Dyer, a professor from Miskatonic University. He writes to disclose hitherto unknown and closely kept secrets in the hope that he can deter a planned and much publicized scientific expedition to Antarctica. On a previous expedition there, a party of scholars from Miskatonic University, led by Dyer, discovered fantastic and horrific ruins and a dangerous secret beyond a range of mountains taller than the Himalayas.

New Trailer for PAUL Starring Simon Pegg and Nick Frost

by Jason Barr    Posted: January 6th, 2011

A new trailer for Greg Mottola’s (Superbad) Paul is now available online.  In case you’re new to the program, Paul stars Simon Pegg and Nick Frost (who also penned the script) as a couple of geeks who are road-tripping across the U.S. when they close encounter (3rd kind) a runaway alien named Paul (voiced by Seth Rogen).  The unlikely heroes then begin an adventure to get Paul to his mother ship.

I have been looking forward Paul for quite some time and, in my opinion, this new trailer (which really showcases some sweet soundtrack material) is the best one released to date.  In addition to Pegg and Frost, Paul’s outstanding cast also includes Kristen Wiig, Jason Bateman, Bill Hader, Joe Lo Truglio, Jane Lynch, Jeffrey Tambor, and Sigourney Weaver.  Paul opens March 18, 2011.  Hit the jump for the trailer:

Here’s the trailer [click over to Apple to watch the trailer in HD].  You can also check out all our Paul coverage here.  It includes a set visit, posters, other trailers, on set interviews, and a lot more.

Here’s the official synopsis for Paul:

Simon Pegg and Nick Frost (Hot Fuzz, Shaun of the Dead) reunite for the comedy adventure Paul  as two sci-fi geeks whose pilgrimage takes them to America’s UFO heartland.  While there, they accidentally meet an alien who brings them on an insane road trip that alters their universe forever.

For the past 60 years, an alien named Paul (voiced by Seth Rogen) has been hanging out at a top-secret military base.  For reasons unknown, the space-traveling smart ass decides to escape the compound and hop on the first vehicle out of town—a rented RV containing Earthlings Graeme Willy (Pegg) and Clive Collings (Frost).

Chased by federal agents and the fanatical father of a young woman that they accidentally kidnap, Graeme and Clive hatch a fumbling escape plan to return Paul to his mother ship.  And as two nerds struggle to help, one little green man might just take his fellow outcasts from misfits to intergalactic heroes.

***First Cast Image from RED DAWN Remake Starring Chris Hemsworth and Jeffrey Dean Morgan ***7 Movie Clips from THE GREEN HORNET ***New MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE – GHOST PROTOCOL Set Photos

First Cast Image from RED DAWN Remake Starring Chris Hemsworth and Jeffrey Dean Morgan

by Matt Goldberg    Posted: January 4th, 2011

An image of the cast from the upcoming remake of Red Dawn has found its way online.  The film was in limbo due to MGM’s ongoing financial troubles, but now that the company has declared bankruptcy and begun restructuring, it’s possible the film will finally be released sometime this year.  This image [via The Daily Blam] looks like it’s either a costume test or for promotional purposes, but I don’t think there will be a scene where the main characters gather to strike a pose and look directly into the camera.

For those who have never seen the original 1984 film, it centers on a group of teenagers that band together after America is invaded by the USSR.  The remake of  Red Dawn stars Chris Hemsworth (Thor), Adrianne Palicki (Friday Night Lights), Josh Hutcherson (The Kids Are All Right), Josh Peck (The Wackness), Isabel Lucas (Daybreakers), Connor Cruise (Seven Pounds), Edwin Hodge (Take Me Home Tonight), and Jeffrey Dean Morgan.

7 Movie Clips from THE GREEN HORNET

by Steve 'Frosty' Weintraub    Posted: January 4th, 2011

Sony has released 7 movie clips from Michel Gondry’s The Green Hornet which stars Seth Rogen, Jay Chou, Cameron Diaz, Christoph Waltz and Tom Wilkinson. If you’re asking how can Seth Rogen be an action hero, these clips will show you.  As you’ll see, The Green Hornet is a twist on the superhero genre since it’s the sidekick who does most of the fighting.

I caught an early screening of the film and liked it a lot.  While there was some bad buzz online awhile ago, I promise you the film is going to surprise you.  Not only does The Green Hornet feature a number of impressive action scenes, it’s really funny.  Hit the jump for the clips.  Look for video interviews with the cast next week:

Here’s the official synopsis:

“Britt Reid (Seth Rogen), son and heir to Los Angeles’ largest newspaper fortune, is a rich, spoiled playboy who has been happy to maintain a direction-less existence. When his father James Reid (Tom Wilkinson) dies, Britt meets an impressive and resourceful company employee, Kato (Jay Chou). They realize that they have the resources to do something worthwhile with their lives and finally step out of James Reid’s shadow. Kato builds the ultimate weapon, The Black Beauty, an indestructible car with every weapon imaginable and Britt decides that in order to be heroes, they will pose as villains. With the help of Britt’s new secretary, Lenore Case (Cameron Diaz), they learn that the chief criminal in the city is named Benjamin Chudnofsky (Christoph Waltz). He has united all the gangs under his power, and he quickly sees that the Green Hornet is a direct threat to the prosperous criminal underworld he controls.”

New MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE – GHOST PROTOCOL Set Photos

by Bill Graham    Posted: January 4th, 2011

The holidays have run their course for most people, which means the brief break that isn’t often afforded production already in progress is over. Director Brad Bird’s first foray into live action is back on track in Vancouver, Canada, where Tom Cruise, Simon Pegg, and some cast and crew were photographed on set of Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol. What is clear is that the weather there isn’t quite as accommodating to Bird compared to working inside a studio–he looks pretty cold. Luckily for him, with a December 16, 2011 release date pegged for the fourth iteration of the franchise, they won’t have to shoot in the winter again. Hit the jump for all of the set photos and a recap of what we know so far.

While this might be Bird’s first live-action film, he carries quite a bit of weight in the industry. That’s because his animated films, The Iron Giant, The Incredibles, and Ratatouille, are among the best animated films of the last decade. So it’s no surprise when Bird assembled quite an impressive cast, including Cruise, Pegg, Paula Patton (Precious), Jeremy Renner, Ving Rhames, and Josh Holloway (Lost). The film is supposedly set up as a quasi-reboot, with Renner being groomed to keep the franchise rolling in future films.

While there is no firm word on the plot itself, the talented team behind and in front of the lens are enough at this point to keep me interested. Additionally, with Michael Giacchino (Up) set to do the score and Robert Elswit (There Will Be Blood) as the director of photography, I know Bird’s first live-action experience is set up to be a success. If any Lost fans need more connections to the show, J.J. Abrams co-wrote the story that the film is based on and is producing. This will be one to watch for when it hits theaters December 16, 2011.

***Universal Pictures to Reboot FIRESTARTER ***First Look at Simon Pegg in MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE – GHOST PROTOCOL

Universal Pictures to Reboot FIRESTARTER

by Jason Barr    Posted: December 14th, 2010

Universal Pictures is teaming up with Dino De Laurentiis Co. to rekindle the flame that was their 1984 sci-fi/horror flick Firestarter.  Based on Stephen King’s 1980 novel of the same name, the original starred Drew Barrymore as Charlie McGee, a young girl who is sought by a government agency for her pyrokinetic abilities.  Mark L. Smith (Vacancy) is currently working on the script with the hopes of getting the project out to directors and into production sometime next year.

According to Variety, the Universal/De Laurentiis production team is looking to make the film a “franchise property” with the latter party citing a “timeless concept” as well as “recent visual effects advances” as key motivators in its reboot.  While plot specifics are limited as of now, it is believed that firebug Charlie McGee will be reinvented with “a little more edge” this time around (apparently starting fires at will isn’t quite enough edge for desensitized 21st century moviegoers).  Although it never received a theatrical follow-up, the original Firestarter was proceeded in 2002 by a Syfy television miniseries entitled Firestarter 2: Rekindled.

First Look at Simon Pegg in MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE – GHOST PROTOCOL

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: December 13th, 2010

While you’re gonna have to wait until March to see the sure-to-be fantastic Simon Pegg/Nick Frost starrer Paul, we’ve got some pictures of Pegg, Tom Cruise, and Paula Patton on the set of the next Mission: Impossible film to tide you over. Directed by the superb Brad Bird (The Incredibles, The Iron Giant, Ratatoullie), Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol is the fourth entry in the popular franchise that’s been spearheaded by Cruise since the first film back in 1996. Bird has assembled a highly impressive cast that includes Cruise, Pegg, Patton, Jeremy Renner, Ving Rhames, Josh Holloway (Lost), Anil Kapoor (Slumdog Millionaire), Léa Seydoux (Ridley Scott’s Robin Hood), and Vladimir Mashkov (The Thief). If that wasn’t enough, Michael Giacchino is also doing the score.

We previously brought you some pictures of Holloway on set, as well as Cruise doing some insane stunt work off the side of one of the tallest buildings in the world. While these pictures lack death-defying stunts, they include Simon Pegg, who is just about as awesome as they come. Needless to say, if I had you at “Simon Pegg” (which, let’s face it, I probably did), hit the jump to check out the pictures:

Personally, I’m really excited about this flick. The choice of Brad Bird as the director (in his first live-action feature, no less) has me over the moon, and the cast he’s put together is fantastic. There’s still no word on the plot of the film, but it’s been said that the film is a reboot of sorts and that Jeremy Renner is being set up to carry future installments of the franchise alone. Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol will hit theaters on December 16^th, 2011.
