Review: True Blood Season Five
19 May 2013 10:06 AM, PDT | Comicmix.com | See recent Comicmix news »
If True Blood Season Five could be easily summed up – and really, it can’t – the theme was about the consequences of one’s actions. Unlike the previous season, this one seemed determined to tidy things up and thin out the herd a bit. During the course of the season, Alan Ball let it be known this would be his final outing as showrunner and clearly, he was determined to be the one to say farewell to a few friends and foes. The season therefore zipped along at a wild, frenetic pace that saw more fangs, blood, and naked bodies than before.
Since Charlaine Harris’ novels began being adapted for HBO, the supporting cast has grown and interestingly, they’re the ones who appear to be the most interesting, getting the deepest development. The triangle of protagonist/antagonist/lover of Sookie, Bill, and Eric sees them getting the least depth »

Alexander Skarsgard Meets Cute With 'What Maisie Knew' Co-Star
8 May 2013 11:30 AM, PDT | MTV Movies Blog | See recent MTV Movies Blog news »
Alexander Skarsgård is no stranger to talented co-stars, having shared screen time with Liam Neeson, Ellen Page and even dad Stellan Skarsgård, but none was quite so adorable as 7-year-old Onata Aprile, whom the actor stars alongside in the drama "What Maisie Knew."
The film, based on the novel by Henry James, tells the story of a young girl who's caught in the middle of her parents' messy divorce and even messier life after. She eventually finds an unexpected father figure in her timid stepfather Lincoln, played convincingly by Skarsgård. In fact, the pair's chemistry and admiration for one another is so palpable, people just can't quit talking about it. Including Skarsgård, who told MTV News his young co-star was the main selling point of the project.
"Working with Onata was pretty amazing," he said. "Looking back, that's what I take from it. I had so much fun working with Onata. »

Luke Evans Is the New Crow
5 May 2013 2:00 PM, PDT | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »
Relativity Media's sometimes cursed remake of The Crow has finally found a leading man: Welsh actor Luke Evans will reprise Brandon Lee's famous 1994 role — one that has been turned down by Alexander Skarsgård, Tom Hiddleston, and Bradley Cooper over the last two years. Deadline also reports that the film's start date has been pushed back to sometime early next year to accommodate Evans’s Fast & Furious 6’s promotion schedule, making the wait for this project just that much more endless. »

Specialty Box Office: 'Iceman' Cometh With Strong Debut; Leads Great Weekend For Millennium Entertainment
5 May 2013 9:10 AM, PDT | Indiewire | See recent Indiewire news »
While most box office reports this afternoon are reasonably freaking out about "Iron Man 3," there was also a notably strong debut at the specialty box office. Instead of iron, it was ice as Ariel Vromen's "The Iceman" debuted on 4 theaters. "Iceman" -- which stars Michael Shannon, Winona Ryder, Chris Evans and Ray Liotta -- is based on the true-life story of notorious Mafia hitman Richard Kuklinski. It managed a promising $93,149 gross from 4 theaters in New York and Los Angeles, averaging $23,287. That's the second best debut in Millennium's three-year history, behind only last summer's "Bernie." It was also was a nice dose of good news for the distributor after a string of disappointments in films like "Upside Down" and "The Paperboy." And it wasn't the only good news. On one screen, Millennium also debuted Scott McGehee and David Siegel's "What Maisie Knew." Starring Julianne Moore and Alexander Skarsgård, »

The Crow has cast Luke Evans in its lead role.
The actor was the first choice for Relativity Media following the departure of Bradley Cooper from the project, according to Deadline.
Evans was previously unable to join the movie due to scheduling conflicts. Filming has now been rescheduled for early 2014 to accommodate him.
Tom Hiddleston and Alexander Skarsgård have recently been rumoured in connection to the title.
James O'Barr's cult graphic novel, which tells the tale of a man who rises from the grave to avenge his murdered lover, was previously adapted in 1993.
Star Brandon Lee was famously killed on the set of The Crow after receiving an accidental gunshot wound.
Evans will next be seen in The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug and Fast & Furious 6, and recently signed on for the starring role in Dracula: Year Zero. »
