Cyrus Movie Trailer: The Duplass Brothers Give Jonah Hill A Chance To Grow By Russ Fischer/Jan. 22, 2010 9:13 am EST We’ve been writing about Cyrus, the new film from the Duplass Brothers, for a while — it was announced last year, shot quickly and is now at Sundance. And until about halfway through this trailer I’d completely forgotten that Jonah Hill was in the film. Then, when he shows up, after just a couple of lines I was floored....

Hugh Jackman Starring In Antoine Fuqua S Prisoners

Hugh Jackman Starring In Antoine Fuqua’s Prisoners? By Brendon Connelly/Dec. 18, 2009 2:15 pm EST Antoine Fuqua’s upcoming kidnap and revenge drama Prisoners, from the hotly tipped screenplay by Aaron Guzikowski, appears to have found its location… but has it also found its star? Last night, the local Board of Aldermen carried a motion to allow Warner Bros. to cast the town of Derby in Connecticut as itself in the film and any potential sequels – not that this screenplay suggested franchise material in any way, but I suppose it’s good to cover all bases....

I Am Legend Prequel Will Show The Fall Of Manhattan And DC By Peter Sciretta/Dec. 6, 2008 11:30 am EST At Comic Con, filmmaker Francis Lawrence revealed that he was working to develop an I Am Legend prequel. Then came rumors that the prequel was actually a sequel, and somehow Will Smith would still be involved. It really didn’t make much sense.

Jennifer Lopez To Star In Overboard Remake

Jennifer Lopez To Star In Overboard Remake By Peter Sciretta/March 19, 2010 12:32 am EST The bad news is that Columbia Pictures is remaking the 1987 Gary Marshall film Overboard, produced by Will Smith. The even worse news is that Jennifer Lopez is in talks to star in said remake. I wouldn’t be surprised if Smith has a new take on the story which transplants the film in China. Oh wait, no, that was The Karate Kid (and that worked out great… oh, it didn’t?...

Must Watch American Gangster Movie Trailer

Must Watch: American Gangster Movie Trailer By Peter Sciretta/June 6, 2007 10:36 am EST American Gangster is one of those movies that just crept right up on me. I swear, I hadn’t heard a thing about the flick before the Scarface influenced theatrical movie posters dropped. Yeah, I know – it’s a Ridley Scott film (Gladiator, Black Hawk Down, Kingdom of Heaven), I should be playing more attention. But now that we have our first look at the film, in the form of a movie trailer – I’m excited....

New Southland Tales Movie Poster Sucks By Peter Sciretta/Sept. 12, 2007 12:42 am EST Cinematical has posted the new theatrical poster for Richard Kelly’s Southland Tales, and it doesn’t look good. Don’t get me wrong. I want Southland Tales to be good. Even if it isn’t good, I want it to make money just because I feel Richard Kelly somehow deserves it. But when a movie distributor clearly has no idea how to sell a film, or starts using deceptive marketing materials, that is usually a sure sign that the film will fail at the box office....
