Malin Akerman Has a Heart of Glass For 'Cbgb'

25 May 2012 3:51 PM, PDT | NextMovie | See recent NextMovie news »

Malin Akerman is ready to go Atomic.

The "Watchmen" beauty is set to show off her singing voice once again as she signs on to play Blondie frontwoman Deborah Harry in "Cgbg," according to Variety.

Blondie was founded in 1974 by Harry and guitarist Chris Stein and is considered a pioneer in the American New Wave and punk scenes that started explode in the mid-'70s. However, Blondie went on to become Top 40 hitmakers after the release of their album "Parallel Lines" (1978), which featured such hit singles as "Heart of Glass," "Hanging on the Telephone," "Sunday Girl" and "One Way or Another."

Blondie were regulars at such New York venues as Max's Kansas City and, of course, Cbgb. "Cbgb" chronicles the rise of this now-defunct hotspot, which was founded by club owner Hilly Kristal (to be played by Alan Rickman in the film). Akerman joins a cast that includes Rupert Grint »

Malin Akerman Pipes Up As Blondie for ‘Cbgb’; Ahna O’Reilly Joins Ashton Kutcher-Led ‘Jobs’

25 May 2012 3:19 PM, PDT | The Film Stage | See recent The Film Stage news »

Her shot at playing Linda Lovelace probably didn’t go as planned, so it’s time for Malin Akerman to take on a classier figure — if Blondie can be considered “classy” in the first place. ShowBlitz has learned that the actress will be seen as the ’80s icon for Cbgb, an account of the infamous New York City rock club and its owner, Hilly Kristal, who Alan Rickman will inhabit; his Harry Potter co-star, Rupert Grint, is expected to play Dead Boys guitarist Cheetah Chrome.

Past reports have indicated that these three will be the central figures of Cbgb, and when one looks over the club’s history — in terms of performers, events, and societal significance — you get some idea of the scope director Randall Miller (Bottle Shock, Nobel Son) will be aiming for. His own, prior credits give me a bit of pause, even if Rickman likes him, but »

7 May 2012 5:48 AM, PDT | Blogomatic3000 | See recent Blogomatic3000 news »

It’s time for another entry in our regular feature the poster round-up and yet again it is another jam-packed update, with new posters for A Fantastic Fear of Everything, Lovelace, Possession, Night of the Templars and Snow White and the Huntsman

A Fantastic Fear of Everything

Jack (Simon Pegg) is a children’s author turned crime novelist whose detailed research into the lives of Victorian serial killers has turned him into a paranoid wreck, persecuted by the irrational fear of being murdered. When Jack is thrown a life-line by his long-suffering agent and a mysterious Hollywood executive takes a sudden and inexplicable interest in his script, what should be his ‘big break’ rapidly turns into his ‘big breakdown’, as Jack is forced to confront his worst demons; among them his love life, his laundry and the origin of all fear.

‘Lovelace’ Movie Poster Featuring Amanda Seyfried Turns Heads

5 May 2012 10:39 AM, PDT | ShockYa | See recent ShockYa news »

A new poster for the upcoming biopic ‘Lovelace’, starring Amanda Seyfried as the porn star Linda Lovelace, has been dropped to the web. In the promotional pic Seyfried is seen all dolled up in a lace red bra donning a pair of hoop earrings with a smile as a brunette for her role. The movie follows the actress as “Linda Lovelace, who is used and abused by the porn industry at the behest of her coercive husband, before taking control of her life.” “This film is really, I feel, the beginning of something else for me.” Director Rob Epstein added that the movie will invite the audience to see Lovelace’s  [ Read More ] »

Amanda Seyfried Poses As Porn Star In Wig And Bra

3 May 2012 9:11 AM, PDT | WENN | See recent WENN news »

Amanda Seyfried has given a glimpse of her transformation into porn legend Linda Lovelace, posing for a flesh-flashing photo for the upcoming biopic's promo poster.

The Mamma Mia! star sheds her wholesome blonde image to play the late adult movie actress in Lovelace, which also stars Peter Sarsgaard, Wes Bentley, and Chloe Sevigny.

A promo poster for the film has now been unveiled, and it shows Seyfried vamping it up in a dark wig and heavy make-up, teasingly pulling down her blouse to reveal her lacy red bra, alongside the tagline, "X marks the legend".

Seyfried took over the role from Kate Hudson last year after the Almost Famous star fell pregnant. Lovelace is due for release later this year. »

Presenting Seyfried as 'Lovelace'

3 May 2012 8:41 AM, PDT | Planet Fury | See recent Planet Fury news »

Much as there are competing Alfred Hitchcock flicks, there are also competing Linda Lovelace flicks. Both Lovelace and Inferno: A Linda Lovelace Story are racing down the stretch toward the finish line, but it appears Lovelace has pulled ahead...no pun intended.

Rob Epstein and Jerry Friedman's Lovelace is now officially categorized by IMDb as being in post-production, whereas Matthew Wilder's Inferno is still in that ugly netherworld known as pre-production (often referred to as "so, are we gonna make this movie or what?").

Lovelace recently solidified its lead in what we at Planet Fury like to call the Lovelace Sweepstakes by releasing its first poster, giving us a look at Amanda Seyfried in her Linda Lovelace makeup, which appears to be just blue eye shadow, pink lipstick and rouge (I'm guessing this performance will be all about costume, attitude and Seyfried's smoldering saucer-size eyes).

For comparison's sake, and »

New Lovelace Poster Goes Live

3 May 2012 2:37 AM, PDT | EmpireOnline | See recent EmpireOnline news »

Saucery ahoy! The internet has laid its grubby paws on a new poster for Amanda Seyfried's new Linda Lovelace biopic Lovelace, and it's got all the come-hithering you could possibly need on a dank Thursday. If you need any at all. And we're not saying you do. That Seyfried makes a suitably seductive Lovelace is pretty obvious from a poster that's at least 142% more sultry than the Tyrannosaur one-sheet. Warning: do not look directly into the hair. With Lovelace, Howl directorial pair Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman have steered another sexually-charged biopic to the screen. Instead of Beat poetry, this time it's the '70s porn industry that's holding their focus. Lovelace's life featured extremes that would make Dirk Diggler blanch and their story spans almost its entirety, from her teen years in Florida to Deep Throat and beyond. It's no spoiler to say that it didn't end well. »

'Lovelace' first look: Amanda Seyfried takes it off

2 May 2012 4:32 PM, PDT | Pop2it | See recent Pop2it news »

Well, isn't that lovely.

The biopic "Lovelace" has released its first image of Amanda Seyfried as the title character, famed porn star Linda Lovelace, and she's dressed (or undressed) about as you would imagine. Additionally, it appears that the normally blond Seyfried goes brunette in the period piece.

In addition to Seyfried, the movie features Peter Sarsgaard as Chuck Traynor, Lovelace's husband, and Sarah Jessica Parker as women's rights activist Gloria Steinem. It's set for release later this year.

"Lovelace" isn't the only biopic about the porn star coming up either. "Inferno: A Linda Lovelace Story" is set for a 2013 release. The film features Malin Akerman in the title role.

See Amanda Seyfried as Porn Star Linda Lovelace in the Lovelace Poster

2 May 2012 10:43 AM, PDT | BuzzSugar | See recent BuzzSugar news »

Amanda Seyfried plays famous porn star Linda Lovelace in the upcoming drama Lovelace, and we have our first official look at the actress as the '70s adult-film icon. It's a little racy, what with the come-hither stare and red lingerie, and I'm already wondering just how much of Lovelace's repertoire we're going to see in the biopic. In any case, I'm very curious about this film, especially for its big cast, which also includes Peter Sarsgaard as Lovelace's abusive husband and James Franco as Hugh Hefner. Get a closer look at the poster after the jump. »

'Lovelace' Poster Shows Off Sexy Brunette Amanda Seyfried

2 May 2012 9:55 AM, PDT | MTV Movies Blog | See recent MTV Movies Blog news »

We're pretty intrigued by Amanda Seyfried's upcoming Linda Lovelace biopic "Lovelace," and the latest poster for the flick leaves a lot about the film to the imagination. The fairly straightforward poster shows Seyfried posing seductively in a lacy red bra with the caption "X marks the legend."

The image comes courtesy of Latino Review, and they also seem pretty unimpressed with the image, calling it "lifeless." The marketing campaign for the movie so far has been pretty PG-rated, which is impressive because the flick is about the career of a porn star. Maybe the folks behind it are trying to have the project seem less risqué because they're trying to appeal to a wider audience, but we'd be lying if we said we didn't like the "Deep Throat" poster created for the film more.

At least the images released so far have given us a good idea of what »
