'Won't Back Down' Trailer Starring Viola Davis and Maggie Gyllenhaal
17 May 2012 9:00 AM, PDT | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »
The first trailer for Won't Back Down is now online offering the first look at what may be Viola Davis's 2012 Oscar bid with potential as well for Maggie Gyllenhaal. Of course, there is the stumbling block when you consider the film is directed by Daniel Barnz whose Beastly didn't exactly excite audiences. Barnz co-wrote the screenplay with Brin Hill and an in-depth synopsis has yet-to-be released to my knowledge with all that's really known at this point is Davis and Gyllenhaal star as a pair of mothers who team up to help make a difference by establishing a charter school in their Pittsburgh neighborhood. The film co-stars Ving Rhames, Oscar Isaac, Holly Hunter, Rosie Perez and Emily Alyn Lind and is currently set to hit theaters on September 28. You can watch the trailer directly below.

17 May 2012 6:30 AM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »
Here's the trailer for an inspirational feel good movie about education called Wont Back Down. The film is based on a true story, and stars Maggie Gyllenhaal and Viola Davis as two determined mothers that want to give their kids a better education. "One a teacher (Davis), will stop at nothing to transform their children's failing inner city school. Facing a powerful and entrenched bureaucracy, they risk everything to make a difference in the education and future of their children."
The movie also stars Oscar Isaac, Holly Hunter and Rosie Perez. It's scheduled to be released on September 28th, 2012. You might be able to connect to the subject matter of this movie more if you have kids. As a parent I really do feel the public education system is failing, and there needs to be some big changes.

Rosie Perez Was Mourning Dad's Death During Pineapple Express Shoot
17 May 2012 1:01 AM, PDT | WENN | See recent WENN news »
Rosie Perez will always be grateful to Seth Rogen for supporting her on the set of Pineapple Express while she grieved the death of her father.
The actress was devastated after losing her dad but she was determined to carry on shooting the 2008 stoner comedy with Rogen and James Franco, who stood by her as she struggled with the bereavement.
She tells E! Online, "They are really kooky in a really pleasant way. It was a tough time for me doing that. My father had passed and it was really difficult. They were really kind, especially Seth. They were so kind and so accommodating. So I have really good memories about that experience because it could have been horrible."
Perez is now all for re-teaming with the comedy duo for a follow-up, adding, "I would love to do a sequel with those guys. They are a lot of fun... A reunion, that would be fun!" »

Pineapple Express Sequel: Another Costar on Board to Light Up Again!
16 May 2012 12:06 PM, PDT | E! Online | See recent E! Online news »
A sequel to Seth Rogen and James Franco's hit stoner flick Pineapple Express has been talked about for a while, but it now sounds like it could actually happen! ""I don't think it's so precious that I wouldn't want to ruin it with a sequel," Seth Rogen told us not too long ago about breaking out the bong again. "So yeah, I would be [into it]. We talk about it. We joke around about it." And now... "I would love to do a sequel with those guys," Rosie Perez, 47, told us last night at Urban Arts Partnership's announcement for the 2012 24 Plays: Los Angeles event at the Montblanc store in Beverly Hills.

Nurse Jackie Review: Getting Trashed
29 April 2012 7:30 PM, PDT | TVfanatic | See recent TVfanatic news »
I'm really enjoying season four of Nurse Jackie.
Everything feels fresh, every character feels like he or she is on a new path, except for Zoe and Coop, I suppose, but would we ever want to see a new path for this pair? Sweet and naive, and clueless and douchey, are perfect for each. They are two who should never change.
But everyone else? Gloria is a nurse on the floor; O'Hara is pregnant (will we ever learn the father?); Kevin is all business, both with Eddie (I want to understand!) and, as I'm sure we'll see a lot more over the coming episode, with Jackie and the kids.
Can't exactly blame him for wanting to take them away, can you?
Even Grace has evolved, though now she's just a regular teenager girl. Good luck with that, Jackie! She's giving her mom a hard time, she's moody, she's good at »

Tonight on Nurse Jackie: Jackie's Secret Gets Out
It had to get out sooner or later.
Word that Nurse Jackie Peyton, the nurse to end all nurses, had a problem with prescription pills and took two weeks off to go to rehab. It was only a matter of time, considering the close quarters that the trauma unit shares, but it has to sting that much more for Jackie to be uncovered. She's grown accustomed to doing whatever she wants whenever she wants and not having to explain herself, so to be confronted about her addiction by Zoey of all people must be tough to deal with. Obviously, Zoey's not indignant or judgmental about rehab, but the fact that even she knows now means that Jackie's accountability has to go even higher. The chance of her falling into the abyss of addiction lessens the more people know about it; Nurse Jackie »

DWTS Judge Carrie Ann Inaba Still Doesn’t Talk To Fellow Fly Girl Jennifer Lopez

We always forget that Dancing With the Stars judge Carrie Ann Inaba got her start the same way Jim Carrey, the Wayans brothers, Jamie Foxx, Rosie Perez, Laurieann Gibson and Jennifer Lopez did, on In Living Color. But Inaba (who also danced on tour with Madonna, was a Japanese pop star and appeared in Austin Powers in Goldmember) reminded us when she appeared at the 2012 TV Land Awards (airing on TV Land April 29), where the Fox sketch show is receiving the Groundbreaking Award. VH1 News couldn’t resist asking if she ever reminisces about the good old days with JLo.
“Actually, we don’t really talk much,” Inaba said. “She’s on that other show called American Idol. And even though American Idol and Dancing With the Stars are right next to each other, we don’t really talk that much. Just kidding, there’s no bad blood. »

Ok, Let's Talk About the Amazing "75 Best Supporting Actresses" Reenactment Video
11 April 2012 10:02 AM, PDT | AfterElton.com | See recent AfterElton.com news »
I've waited a few days to collect my thoughts and weigh in on the most important YouTube video since Corgis Enjoy A Treadmill, so here goes: A fast-yapping vlogger who goes by the name The Doomsday Diaries (and the Twitter handle @Diariesofdoom) zeroed in on The Academy Awards' Best Supporting Actress category -- the greatest Oscar category, by the way -- and toasted it by reenacting scenes/moments from all 75 winning performances since 1936.
Let me be clear: This is a staggering feat. This guy has democratized everyone from Eva Marie Saint and Lila Kedrova to Gale Sondergaard and Helen Hayes in the clippiest, hippest way possible. It's explosive. It's gigantic. It's a pink diamond. And so much of it is amazingly good. It's like a version of "The Snatch Game"from RuPaul's Drag Race, except with dignified actresses up for satire and not, say, Snooki.
I thought we'd have a little debate. »

Interview: Matt Lucas Talks "Small Apartments" and Walking Around In Tighty Whities
29 March 2012 11:31 AM, PDT | AfterElton.com | See recent AfterElton.com news »
You may recognize comedic actor Matt Lucas from his work in the U.K.- based sketch comedy show Little Britain or as Kristen Wiig's passive aggressive roommate in Bridesmaids. His comic chops are top notch, but he recently test drove his American accent and his dramatic acting skills in Small Apartments, which made its World Premiere at this year's South by Southwest Film Festival.
Set in the grimy, hyperreality created by music video auteur Jonas Åkerlund (the man responsible for creating Lady Gaga and Beyonce's technicolored "Telephone" video as well as many-a-Madonna vids) , Matt stars as Franklin Franklin, a man who has an affinity for Switzerland, orange soda, blowing into his Ricola alphorn, and has an extensive collection of wigs. While living in his dilapidated apartment, his tyrant-of-a-landlord (Peter Stormare) pays him a visit and then Lucas' character "accidentally" kills him. The rest of the movie follows »

Spike Lee Tweeted Wrong George Zimmerman Address
27 March 2012 10:10 PM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »
Rosie Perez, Spike Lee, Do the Right Thing Spike Lee, 55, is no stranger to controversy, especially when it involves issues related to anti-black racism. Lee's latest ethnicity-related controversy is a result of his retweeting to his nearly 248,000 followers (and potentially to their followers, and so on) the home address of George Zimmerman, the man accused of stalking and murdering 17-year-old Trayvon Martin because of Martin's black skin. The reasons for Lee's retweet — the original tweet purportedly came from a man in California — remain murky. Was he expecting peaceful protests in that residential Sanford, Florida, neighborhood? Or perhaps a scene out of the Do the Right Thing climax, when the pizza delivery guy (played by Lee himself) throws a garbage can through the window of the local pizzeria owned by Italian-Americans? Anyhow, according to the Orlando Sentinel, Lee has tweeted the wrong address. Someone lives in that house, but that someone »

Philip Seymour Hoffman and Andrew Garfield in “Death of a Salesman”
18 March 2012 10:03 AM, PDT | Hollywoodnews.com | See recent Hollywoodnews.com news »
HollywoodNews.com: The greatest American play? Quite possibly Arthur Miller’s “Death of a Salesman,” set in 1949 and revived last night on Broadway in a production that is outstanding. Mike Nichols directed and reinvented Miller’s classic, with Philip Seymour Hoffman as Willy Loman, Andrew Garfield (the new movie Spider Man) as Biff, Linda Emonds as Willy’s wife Linda, and Finn Wittrock as Happy. This is a historic production, quite possibly the best ever (and there have been many great ones starring Dustin Hoffman, Brian Dennehy, Lee J. Cobb, George C. Scott). Thursday night’s star studded opening was the second time I’ve seen this production, and it’s only gotten more devastating, deep, emotional, and overwhelming. Philip Seymour Hoffman is our generation’s Jason Robards. He is perfection as Willy Loman in all aspects–from Willy’s wrestling with his past (the father and »

9 March 2012 12:00 PM, PST | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »
Among the films premiering at South by Southwest this Saturday, none can boast a cast as fever-dream eclectic as the wild comedy Small Apartments. Directed by in-demand music video helmer Jonas Akerlund, it stars Brit comedian Matt Lucas as a Los Angeles man who kills his landlord (Peter Stormare) and comes into contact with the following people while trying to cover up his crime: his insane brother, played by James Marsden, who sends him toenail clippings and audio tapes narrated by Dolph Lundgren, as well as a fire investigator played by Billy Crystal, a pothead portrayed by Johnny Knoxville, a sexy mother-daughter duo played by Saffron Burrows and Juno Temple, and other assorted personalities who include Rosie Perez, Rebel Wilson, James Caan, Amanda Plummer, and Project Runway All-Stars hostess Angela Lindvall. Vulture's got the exclusive premiere of the poster, if you can still see straight after imagining a movie that »

10 SXSW Soundtracks To Look Out For Including Scores By Members Of Pearl Jam, Vampire Weekend, Menomena, Tortoise & More
8 March 2012 11:31 AM, PST | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
SXSW is barely 24 hours away from starting (catch up with part one and part two of our preview pieces here), and at this point, it's important to be reminded that one of the things that makes the festival unique is a particular focus on the crossover between music and film, something that's been a special interest of ours since the very earliest days of The Playlist. SXSW doesn't just have a whole sidebar dedicated to music documentaries (with this year's batch including films centered on LCD Soundsystem, Paul Simon and Big Star), and a music festival that runs alongside, but the films screened seem to attract a disproportionate number of scores by indie and rock musicians.
And with more and more names who broke out from the pop and rock world -- from veteran composers like Danny Elfman and Clint Mansell to newbies like Trent Reznor and The Chemical Brothers -- moving into composition, »

SXSW preview: 10 buzzy events, from 'Cabin in the Woods' to a conversation with Seth MacFarlane
8 March 2012 6:04 AM, PST | EW - Inside Movies | See recent EW.com - Inside Movies news »
Part musical festival, part film festival, part tech-head confab, SXSW is a unique event in the pop-culture firmament, bringing massive stars and indie up-and-comers in music, movies, and tech together in the Texas hill country of Austin. Running from March 9-17, the film festival has especially expanded its profile in the last few years: The 2011 SXSW fest featured premieres of Jodie Foster’s The Beaver, the doc Conan O'Brien Can't Stop, the Jake Gyllenhaal thriller Source Code, the sci-fi comedy Paul, and the eventually Oscar-winning feature documentary Undefeated.
