I’ll give you 30 seconds to think of one actor other besides Liam Neeson, who you think would be perfect to play Abraham Lincoln in the biopic about the 16th U.S. President… anybody comes to mind?… no one yet?.. I’m getting sleepy here.. oo what about..o never mind..ok, time’s up. Point is,… Read the rest of this entry »
Robert Rodriguez has been long rumored as the potential candidate to direct DEADPOOL for Fox. Ryan Reynolds is still attached to star as the badass, mouthy, wise-cracking mercenary. He told MTV last week that he had received the script but wasn’t sure if he would direct the project or not. Today LA Times said it’s happening.. Rodriguez and Fox are in negotiation stages..

Last month, Pajiba reported that Guillermo Del Toro might be developing a new VAN HELSING Movie, which I thought was a great idea cause if there’s one movie that could use reboot, it’d be that one Hugh Jackman vampire-slayin’ movie alright! But shortly after that,.. Read the rest of this entry »
The other day, 24 Frames said Chloe Moretz was in talks to star in THE RUT for director Karyn Kusama (Jennifer’s Body). I just got off the phone with Moretz, I’ll post the full interview later today but she confirmed that that she has indeed officially signed on. She expected production to start later this year.
Moretz can be seen this year in LET ME IN, the Matt Reeves-directed remake of Swedish adaptation, Let The Right One In and she’s also part of a caliber cast of HUGO CABRET, directed by the great Martin Scorsese.
If I’d put it in just one sentence, CHARLIE ST. CLOUD is Ghost meets The Sixth Sense with that kid from 17 Again. You see how I didn’t mention High School Musical there, only because CHARLIE ST. CLOUD doesn’t have musical number but Efron still has to relive high school for a few scenes in this movie and the rest takes place 5 years after. But if this is Efron’s way to be taken seriously as an actor, then I’d say.. Read the rest of this entry »
Steve Carell in DINNER FOR SCHMUCKS is Lloyd and Harry from Dumb and Dumber all in one. Carell’s expressive and animated faces and his character’s mousterpieces are at the heart of this imperfect comedy. Jim Carrey could probably play this role but Carell pulls it off just fine, he’s the only one that saves DINNER FOR SCHMUCKS which I think is funny but only to a certain point and then it gets way too long and irritating… Read the rest of this entry »
The 2006 big screen version Curious George, voice starring Will Ferrell and Drew Barrymore wasn’t a hit, it only banked $58 Million domestically and then there was also the 2009 straight to DVD sequel Curious George 2: Follow that Monkey! But according to 24 Frames, Illumination Entertainment sees potential to give CURIOUS GEORGE another shot.. Read the rest of this entry »
The character ARTHUR, played by Russell Brand in the remake, is a rich playboy who’s got so much money he doesn’t know what to do with it. So it makes sense that he’d spend it lavishly on Batman Forever‘s Batmobile and Batman costume and.. the DeLorean car from Back To The future, just for the hell of it. Via The DailyMail, these photos show Brand on the set with the car that flew Marty McFly through time… Read the rest of this entry »
You either hated the movie Kick-Ass or you enjoyed it. It was a big significant split and I was one of the few who thought it was.. well, Kick-Ass! A couple of months ago, announcement hit the web that graphic novelist Mark Millar (Wanted) who created Kick-Ass was launching the sequel book. And after that, its adaptation, KICK-ASS 2: BALLS TO THE WALLS has been scheduled for production in 2011 for a 2012 cinema release. Movieweb chatted with Millar who revealed pretty much the direction he’s taking as far as storyline goes. If you haven’t seen the first movie, then the following might be considered SPOILER… Read the rest of this entry »
