Oscilloscope Pictures has debuted the official trailer for Rob Epstein & Jeffrey Friedman's Howl, originally on The AV Club (embed below courtesy of The Playlist). Howl is that experimental trippy indie flick about poet Allen Ginsberg, as played by James Franco. Before its premiere at Sundance, we were hyping this up with a lot of photos of Franco in character as Ginsberg. But once it premie
There are a couple of Marvel related casting stories today that we should mention, although both of them are kind of sketchy, so I'm going into this a bit cautiously. First up, Deadline says Kevin Bacon (Footloose, Tremors, Apollo 13, Taking Chance) has been cast in "the villain role" in Matthew Vaughn's X-Men: First Class. Alas, they don't know who he is playing (at all), so we have no idea who
Wait, wait, wait - the BioShock movie will be hard R?! Yep, that's what they're hoping for. We didn't catch this when it first hit, but I thought it was good news anyway. IGN talked with filmmaker Gore Verbinski last week (at the same event for Rango we attended) and got a quick update on the status of the BioShock movie, but more importantly he spoke about how it "has to be R, a hard R." A video
The last time we heard about Edgar Wright's Ant-Man movie, based on the Marvel superhero, was actually just back in April, when Kevin Feige said that we may actually see them starting early work on it by the end of this year with a release coming sometime after The Avengers hits in 2012. But that news didn't stop Box Office Magazine (found via ComingSoon) from asking Edgar Wright about the comic
This Christmas… We hope you don't see this. After Meet the Parents and Meet the Fockers, we thought that "franchise" had wrapped up, but they're back, all of them: Robert De Niro to Ben Stiller to Owen Wilson to Dustin Hoffman to Barbra Streisand as well as newcomers like Jessica Alba and Laura Dern. Universal has debuted the first teaser trailer for Little Fockers on Apple today. As expect
Any fans of Tony Scott's True Romance out there? Written by Quentin Tarantino and starring Christian Slater, Patricia Arquette, Dennis Hopper, Val Kilmer, Gary Oldman, Christopher Walken, Samuel Jackson, Michael Rapaport, and even Brad Pitt, True Romance is quite a beloved cult classic. I recently received an email with a link to these three posters created by graphic designer Derek Gabryszak tha
So that rumor from last week that director Guillermo del Toro was producing another Van Helsing movie stirred up some interesting news. On del Toro's official website, Del Toro Films (via SlashFilm), the director emailed in an official on-the-record statement about that Helsing rumor and what he does have coming up. "Van Helsing (writing and producing) is still in talks and not quite certain. Eve
There's probably going to be some confusion about if this actually the third trailer, but counting the teaser and theatrical trailer, this is indeed the third trailer from Disney for The Sorcerer's Apprentice starring Nic Cage, Jay Baruchel, Monica Bellucci, Alfred Molina, Teresa Palmer and Toby Kebbell. It comes from the official website (but we found it on YouTube) and is pretty much the same a
