Pick of the promotional goodies was a brand new fourth trailer, which saw a heavy focus on the epic action set to be unleashed in Zack Snyder's hotly-anticipated reboot when General Zod (Michael Shannon) and Faora (Antje Traue »

Will John C. Reilly join the Marvel Universe for 'Guardians Of The Galaxy'?
8 hours ago | Hitfix | See recent Hitfix news »
James Gunn's "Guardians Of The Galaxy" promises to be one of the strangest of the Marvel movies so far, and that excites me. Drew Pearce, who collaborated with Shane Black on the "Iron Man 3" script, was almost hired to work on the final polish for this film, but it looks like Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely will be doing the final polish on the script that Nicole Perlman and Chris McCoy wrote instead. Quick side note… is Perlman the first female writer on a Marvel movie? In a lot of ways, Marvel is treating "Guardians" as the beachhead for a »

Friday (neo)Noir: ‘A History of Violence’ marks Cronenberg’s stunning venture into high minded drama
24 May 2013 3:58 PM, PDT | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »
Written by Josh Olsen
Directed by David Cronenberg
U.S.A., 2005
2005, judging by the theatrical releases, was an exceptional year for the neonoir sub-genre. Last summer, for the special Friday (neo)Noir series, reviews for Rian Johnson’s breakout independent hit Brick and Robert Rodriguez’s cinematic visualization of Sin City, both from 2005, were written. A couple of weeks ago another neonoir from the same year was put under the microscope, Shane Black’s Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. This week features, yes, still another entry from that illustrious year, one from the most lauded director of the bunch, David Cronenberg’s A History of Violence.
Set in Millbrook, Indiana, A History of Violence shares the tale of the Stalls, namely Tom (Viggo Mortensen), Edie (Maria Bello) and their son Jack (Ashton Holmes), all of whom live a reasonably quiet life, with the exception of Jack, a »

Rebecca Hall Goes "Bazaar"
24 May 2013 9:11 AM, PDT | SneakPeek | See recent SneakPeek news »
Sneak Peek "Iron Man 3" actress Rebecca Hall in a UK edition of "Harper's Bazaar" magazine:
"It's one thing we loved about the comic book," said "Iron Man 3" director Shane Black, "which was that 'Maya' is someone 'Tony' meets in one capacity at one point in his life, and he proves to be touched by that encounter.
"We needed a snappy and exciting actor to play the part, and not make it this 'female scientist who takes off her glasses and suddenly she's beautiful."
"Maya is a scientist who makes a pretty astounding discovery that leads her to places," said Marvel Studios' Kevin Feige about the character, "and some are healthier than others. It's not dissimilar to what Tony's been through, and it's a great parallel..."
Debuting in Marvel Comics' "Iron Man #1 (2006 series), 'Maya Hansen' was one of the most respected and well known bio-technologists in her field. »

Spiderbaby's Terror Tapes: 'Night of the Creeps' With Fred Dekker
23 May 2013 8:00 AM, PDT | FEARnet | See recent FEARnet news »
Fred Dekker’s 1986 horror-masterpiece Night of the Creeps changed my life – and it probably change yours, too. It was the horror film that brought aliens, parasites, axe-murders and zombies together in one grand, hilarious and terrifying masterpiece. It was the horror film that wed John Hughes’ teenaged life with George Romero’s on-earth death-walkers.
Back in 1959, a meteorite crashed into Earth, bringing with it a type of parasite that feeds on human brains. When the first victim of the parasite is put into deep freeze, no one expects two teenagers, Chris and J.C. (Jason Lively and Steve Marshall) to inadvertently release these slug-like aliens onto their campus when they unthaw an infected man who has been cryogenically frozen since the fifties. Now with the help of a sorority girl that Chris is crushing on and an aging, cynical detective, they must stop the slugs from infecting their friends before »

22 May 2013 1:53 PM, PDT | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »
By the time James Mangold's The Wolverine will be released in July it will be the third superhero movie of the summer, having arrived after both Shane Black's Iron Man 3 and Zack Snyder's Man of Steel, but that in no way dulls our excitement to see the film. The trailer that arrived yesterday, which finally put the titular mutant in action against the powerful Silver Samurai, was thrilling and stylish, and keeping our anticipation high. And now we have the cool new magazine cover from Entertainment Weekly you see above to add to the mix. Following their summer movie preview issue, which gave us new looks at the aforementioned Superman movie, 300: Rise of An Empire and R.I.P.D. as well as new details about the development of Justice League, the magazine has released a look at their next bit installment, showcasing Hugh Jackman »
Did You Spot The Fake Robert Downey Jr. In Iron Man 3?
22 May 2013 1:24 PM, PDT | ComicBookMovie.com | See recent ComicBookMovie news »
When Robert Downey Jr. suffered a serious injury and had to take 6 weeks to recover, Shane Black and co. obviously kept production going on Marvel's Iron Man threequel..but they didn't only shoot scenes without Tony Stark in them. For that last scene with Tony overlooking the beach from the ruins of his mansion for example, a body double was used and Downey Jr.'s face superimposed in much the same fashion as the "Skinny Steve" version of Chris Evans was created in Captain America: Tfa. “Together with face replacement and full body doubles, somewhere there was a solution to the problem of not having Robert Downey Jnr on set for the time,” explains Iron Man 3's VFX supervisor Chris Townsend. "We were able to reconstruct Rdj as Tony Stark on set, with the help of a body double and the facial captures we'd collected afterwards." I've seen »

Exclusive: James Badge Dale Talks Coldblood and Spoilers in Iron Man 3

James Badge Dale talks about taking on the role of Coldblood in Iron Man 3, currently playing in theaters everywhere
After making his film debut at just 12 years of age in 1990's Lord of the Flies, James Badge Dale returned to the craft with a string of roles in the early 2000s, appearing on 24 as Chase Edmunds, Rescue Me as Timo Gavin, and The Black Donnellys as Samson. He had a breakout year in 2010, starring in the HBO mini-series The Pacific and the brilliant but short-lived AMC show Rubicon, which lead to impressive turns in The Conspirator, Shame, The Grey, and Flight. This versatile actor returns to the big screen once again in Iron Man 3 as the villainous Eric Savin a.k.a. Coldblood, the Extremis-enhanced soldier who does the dirty work for Guy Pearce's Aldrich Killian. I recently had the chance to speak with James Badge Dale about his bad-ass bald look, »

Interview: James Badge Dale Doesn’t Need to See Himself on Camera
21 May 2013 2:30 PM, PDT | FilmSchoolRejects.com | See recent FilmSchoolRejects news »
There were a surprising amount of baddies in Iron Man 3. Director Shane Black‘s Tony Stark adventure put the idea of multiple villains being a bad idea to rest. One of those villains — or henchman, if you want to get technical — was played by a familiar face, James Badge Dale. Badge Dale chewed on every piece of Black’s dialog and his character’s eccentricities. Even with the technical challenges, it’s a role Badge Dale wanted to let loose with. The actor used to work construction, and he wanted to bring that mentality to the character. A Shane Black henchman isn’t the only role we’ll see James Badge Dale in this summer, as he has both World War Z and The Lone Ranger next on dock, and they represent a chance for the actor to reach an audience that maybe doesn’t frequently watch Shame or The Pacific with their free time.

James Badge Dale Talks Iron Man 3, His Audition Process, the Character’s Physicality, World War Z, The Lone Ranger, and More

From director Shane Black, Iron Man 3 has certainly gotten the blockbuster movie season off to a pretty incredible start. This time out, brilliant billionaire inventor Tony Stark (Robert Downey, Jr.), aka Iron Man, faces a terrifying enemy, known as The Mandarin (Sir Ben Kingsley), whose reach knows no bounds, and he must rely on his own instincts to protect those that he loves. During this recent exclusive phone interview with Collider, actor James Badge Dale, who plays Extremis agent and all-around bad-ass Eric Savin, talked about how he came to be a part of the film, having to read pages from a cop movie for his audition, due to secrecy, how he finally gut a full script after negotiations for the role were finished, what it means to him to get to be a part of the Iron Man franchise, how he viewed Savin, and what he wanted to »

Bingbing Li May or May Not Have Landed a Big Role in Transformers 4
20 May 2013 9:35 AM, PDT | Beyond Hollywood | See recent Beyond Hollywood news »
Given the unseemly, on-their-knees groveling nature of Hollywood when it comes to the Chinese market these days, you’ll excuse me for not getting all that excited by this news that Chinese actress Bingbing Li has nabbed a role in Michael Bay’s upcoming “Transformers 4″. I only need remind you of Xueqi Wang and Bingbing Fan’s roles in Shane Black’s “Iron Man 3″. Those two roles were much ballyhooed, but as it turns out, Wang only appeared in a blink-and-you’ll-miss cameo in the International cut of the film, with only Chinese audiences in China getting a few extra minutes with Wang and Fan that, frankly, were so haphazardly shoehorned into the movie it provoked more embarrassment from the Chinese audiences that saw it than pride, which was obviously what everyone (including a very complicit Marvel) was going for. We already know that Bay and Paramount have »

James Badge Dale, 'Iron Man 3' Star, Is Also in 'World War Z' and 'The Lone Ranger'
20 May 2013 7:40 AM, PDT | Moviefone | See recent Moviefone news »
James Badge Dale has always been one of those promising character actors who you knew to keep an eye on; he starred as a squirrely everyman caught in a vast conspiracy in AMC's short-lived series "Rubicon," and anchored the very best scene in Robert Zemeckis's "Flight" (he was the cancer patient in the staircase). But this summer he not only flirts with superstardom, he takes superstardom out to a five-course meal and brings it back to his place. In successive months, James Badge Dale stars in three of the summer's biggest, most talked-about blockbusters. You can currently see him as a gum-chewing bad guy in the excellent "Iron Man 3"; next month he battles hordes of flesh-eating zombies in the highly anticipated "World War Z," and in July he stars alongside Johnny Depp and Armie Hammer in Disney's mega-budget "The Lone Ranger." We got to speak with the actor »

Joss Whedon confirms Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch for The Avengers 2
20 May 2013 1:30 AM, PDT | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »
Following the success of Joss Whedon’s The Avengers last year, which fast became one of the most successful movies of all time, talk very quickly turned to a sequel, and what Whedon would bring to the table for The Avengers 2.
The Avengers was such a game-changing, bar-raising movie, and it’s difficult to imagine (until we actually see it in 2015) what direction Whedon will go for The Avengers 2. I have complete faith that he’s going to outdo even himself – not just in terms of bigger blockbuster moments, but in terms of bringing us a character-driven movie that is every bit as entertaining as its predecessor (see our top ten list of who we think may appear here).
One of the things we’ve all naturally been wondering is who will be showing up for round two, amongst the faces we’ve already seen in the Marvel »
