Jamie Bell Fanboys Over Chris Pine and Star Trek Into Darkness

23 May 2013 2:15 PM, PDT | E! Online | See recent E! Online news »

Bromance alert? Jamie Bell seemed to hint at just that when he tweeted: "Chris Pine kills it. #IntoDarkness" Then again, perhaps the Billy Elliot star is simply a fanboy, especially seeing how he expressed his admiration for the Star Trek Into Darkness actor on the movie's opening day, May 16. Meanwhile, Bell continues to await the stork's arrival as wife Evan Rachel Wood's summer due date approaches. No word yet on whether the two are having a boy or a girl, but if Bell has any say in it, he or she will surely be a Trekker. »

Lars von Trier's 'Nymphomaniac' to feature 'groundbreaking' sex scenes

21 May 2013 9:51 AM, PDT | Digital Spy | See recent Digital Spy - Movie News news »

Lars von Trier's Nymphomaniac project will reportedly feature "groundbreaking" sex scenes.

The upcoming two-part erotic film is to feature graphic sex scenes between cast members, producer Louise Vesth told The Hollywood Reporter.

However, the real hardcore scenes will be filmed using body doubles, who will then be combined with the stars' non-explicit acts using digital technology, she explained.

Charlotte Gainsbourg, Stellan Skarsgard, Shia LeBeouf, Uma Thurman, Willem Dafoe, Christian Slater and Jamie Bell are among the film's cast.

"We shot the actors pretending to have sex and then had the body doubles, who really did have sex, and in post we will digital-impose the two," Vesth said.

"So above the waist it will be the star and below the waist it will be the doubles."

The post-production work on the project is said to be the reason why it was not available to be screened at Cannes this week. »

Lars Von Trier's 'Nymphomaniac' Will Use Digital Technology To Put A-List Heads On Porn Double Bodies

21 May 2013 8:35 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »

So we'd heard some interesting rumors of late regarding Lars Von Trier's "Nymphomaniac" -- rumors of heavy visual effects elements, seemingly borne out by the producer saying that the film wouldn't be ready until the very end of the year due to some extensive post-production elements. And now, the truth behind the rumors has been revealed and it lets slip exactly how Von Trier is planning to combine his starry cast with explicit, hardcore sex scenes. The film's producer, Louise Vesth, has told The Hollywood Reporter that Von Trier is using digital effects to map the top half of the likes of Charlotte Gainsbourg, Stellan Skarsgard, Shia Labeouf, Jamie Bell, Willem Dafoe, Connie Nielsen & co on to the bottom halves of professional porn-star doubles. "We shot the actors pretending to have sex," the producer says, "and then had the body doubles, who really did have sex, and in post we will digital-impose the two. »

Lars Von Trier’s Nymphomaniac to Digitally Blend Actors and Body Doubles for Hardcore Sex Scenes

21 May 2013 8:07 AM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »

If you were hoping to see some of your favorite actors going at it for real in Lars Von Trier's Nymphomaniac, I have some disappointing news for you.  Producer Louise Vesth tells THR that the two-part feature will digitally blend the stars of the movie with their body doubles.  Everything above the waist will be the name actor, and then their body doubles will handle the hardcore sex below.  "We shot the actors pretending to have sex and then had the body doubles, who really did have sex, and in post we will digital-impose the two," says Vesth.  The producer added that Von Trier is also "using double exposures and imposing words and symbols over the action as part of his storytelling." Hit the jump for more.  The film stars Charlotte Gainsbourg, Stellan Skarsgard, Shia Labeouf, Jamie Bell, Connie Nielsen, Christian Slater, Uma Thurman, Willem Dafoe, Jean-Marc Barr, and Udo Kier. »

New cast photo for Snowpiercer

20 May 2013 4:11 PM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »

We're yet to see the first trailer for Joon-ho Bong's upcoming English language debut Snowpiercer (although we did get a few snippets of footage thanks to an international featurette), but to tide us over a new image has been released featuring several of the main players from the mysterious sci-fi, including Chris Evans (Captain America: The Winter Soldier), Ewen Bremner (Jack the Giant Slayer), Octavia Spencer (The Help), Kang-ho Song (The Good, the Bad, the Weird), Go Ah-sung (The Host) and Tilda Swinton (We Need to Talk About Kevin) - the latter of whom is sporting a shoe on her head...

Snowpiercer is based upon the French graphic novel Le Transperceneige by Jacques Lob and Jean-Marc Rochette and takes place in an apocalyptic near-future, where an Ice Age has killed all life on Earth, save the for inhabitants of a train called the Snowpiercer. Also featuring in the cast »

New Poster & Photos Of 'Snowpiercer' Starring Chris Evans & Tilda Swinton

20 May 2013 11:45 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »

The other day, we half-joked about "Anchorman: The Legend Continues" being our most anticipated for the rest of the year. Of course, we are desperately counting the days until the comedy sequel arrives, but there are films that are probably a little higher on our watch-list. And perhaps at the very top is Bong Joon-Ho's "Snowpiercer." The Korean filmmaker, who was behind "Memories of Murder," "The Host" (the good one, not the Stephenie Meyer one) and "Mother" is one of the most exciting filmmakers in the world right now, so we've been following his English-language debut with eagle-eyes ever since it was announced, and even more so since he started to assemble a killer international cast. But the closer the film gets, and the more we see of it, the more desperate the wait for it becomes, and that's true of the latest batch of photos and posters for the movie that just arrived. »

Everyone’s At It In Latest Photo For Lars Von Trier’s Nymphomaniac

17 May 2013 12:51 AM, PDT | We Got This Covered | See recent We Got This Covered news »

Innuendo? In your endo! Lars Von Trier’s two-part sexual shenanigan flick, Nymphomaniac, has delivered another glimpse into its world. The arrival of this staged teaser is not unexpected. The launch of the film’s website earlier this month printed the first poster for the flick. It also invited people in a suggestive manner, to return to the site on May 16th. So we did. What Von Trier has posted is an image showcasing the entire cast. In rather compromising positions.

This phallic panorama is quite the racy expose. With all the cast evoking suggestive sexual encounters, Von Trier looks on from the left side – with tape across his mouth. It comes across a little like a sexualised version of Where’s Wally? (or Where’s Waldo? for you Americans.) For adults, obviously. You can certainly wile away a good….minute trying to spot all of the carefully placed tips. »

Nymphomaniac Promo Art with Willem Dafoe and Shia Labeouf

16 May 2013 3:11 PM, PDT | MovieWeb | See recent MovieWeb news »

The ensemble cast of director Lars von Trier's Nymphomaniac are all featured in the latest promo art, which features actors such as Willem Dafoe and Shia Labeouf in several provocative poses. Zentropa Entertainment and Nordisk Film also announced today that the film will have its world premiere in Copenhagen, Denmark this December. Check it out, then read the official press release for more details.

Whether Lars von Trier would return to Cannes with Nymphomaniac has been the subject of speculations ever since the project was announced. Even when the producer publicly announced a timeline that didn't allow for the film to be ready for screening in May, many were still looking for Trier's two-part work on the Official Competition Lineup for Cannes 2013, when it was revealed. Continued speculations are now directed towards the next question: When will Nymphomaniac have its world premiere?

Full Nymphomaniac Cast Shot

16 May 2013 12:15 PM, PDT | EmpireOnline | See recent EmpireOnline news »

Though it could be the sleaziest photoshoot for BBC drama ever, the picture lurking below is actually the first full cast shot of Lars von Trier’s new controversy-baiter Nymphomaniac. He might not be maddening the Cannes officials this year with his outspoken presence, but that doesn’t stop Von Trier from grabbing headlines and eyeballs with his work.Chronicling the erotic journey of self-diagnosed nymphomaniac Joe (Charlotte Gainsbourg) from birth until the age of 50, the movie will jump around in time and cover a variety of characters. If you peer at the larger version of the picure (you can see it enlarged further on the film’s site) you’ll see von Trier with a camera (and tape over his mouth - probably wise), Stacy Martin, Shia Labeouf, Jamie Bell, Uma Thurman, Udo Kier, Sophie Kennedy Clark, Willem Dafoe, Stellan Skarsgard, Mia Goth, Christian Slater, Gainsbourg, Nicolas Bros and Connie Nielsen. »

Snazzy "Nymphomaniac" Promo Image

16 May 2013 11:10 AM, PDT | Dark Horizons | See recent Dark Horizons news »

Zentropa has unveiled this quite stunning cast photo for Lars von Trier's upcoming two-film project "Nymphomaniac".

The photo features a shirtless Shia Labeouf, Willem Dafoe with a suspicious trouser stain, Christian Slater about to wash Charlotte Gainsbourg's lady parts, Stellan Skarsgard getting some foot action, Udo Kier copping an eyeful of Uma Thurman, and Jamie Bell on the sidelines with some paper towels.

von Trier is in the midst of a major post-production phase with editing having only begun on the second feature.

Zentropa has also announced it will premiere the first film in Copenhagen in December ahead of a local release that Christmas. Magnolia Pictures will release the movie States-side.

Actors Look Up Ladies’ Skirts In New Nymphomaniac Promo

16 May 2013 9:30 AM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »

Here is a new promotional shot for Lars Von Trier’s upcoming (ahem) Nymphomaniac.

The Dogme 95 veteran is no stranger to controversy, but we won’t go into his wacky adventures with Hitler and female castration, or his seeming contempt for his lady actors. Instead, let’s have a peek at his tongue in cheek (and presumably elsewhere) promotional image, which is less Melancholia and more Carry On Matron. Phallic fruit, riding crops, ice cream breasts, barrels of lubricant, women’s pants and more ejaculation symbolism than you can shake a big fat cock at. The director himself appears with duct tape on his mouth, filming the whole scenario on his camera phone. He puts the B into subtle, but that’s our Lars!

Look closely and you’ll see stars like Uma Thurman, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Shia Labeouf, Jamie Bell, Christian Slater, Willem Dafoe and Udo Kier among many others. »

First Cast Photo From Von Trier's 'Nymphomaniac' Mercifully Doesn't Involve Huge Gang Bang

16 May 2013 8:18 AM, PDT | NextMovie | See recent NextMovie news »

Lars von Trier, the notoriously outspoken filmmaker who got himself temporarily banned from the Cannes Film Festival for comments he made about Nazis (oh Lars!), has a two-part sex epic coming out later this year called "Nymphomaniac." In a press release, er, released this morning (which clearly isn't connected to Cannes going on right now), it was announced that the two films would premiere in Copenhagen in December, along with the first official photo of the films' cast. Thankfully they aren't involved in some huge gang bang, but rather posed artfully, like a super perverse Gap ad.

Amongst the actors you can spot in the tableau are Shia Labeaouf (underneath that tiny table on the left, Uma Thurman (is that her in the middle?), Udo Kier (looking up Uma's dress), Willem Dafoe (spilling water on his crotch in the middle — wait what?), Stellan Skarsgard (looking real drunk on the couch), Charlotte Gainsbourg (legs spread, »

New Image Arrives Of The Cast Of Lars Von Trier's 'Nymphomaniac,' Part One Opens In Denmark On Christmas Day

16 May 2013 6:19 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »

Cannes is underway, and it's a quieter place without Lars Von Trier there. Despite guesses from some, the Danish auteur isn't on the Croisette with his latest, "Nymphomaniac," but it's not because of the outrage he caused in 2010 with his comments about Hitler, but instead because the sex-laced two-part epic simply isn't ready. Still, there is a presence of some kind, as the films' backers have used the festival to unveil an image that shows the film's starry cast in various suggestive positions. The tableaux includes Von Trier himself (tape over his mouth, camera in hand) looking over much of his cast, including Charlotte Gainsbourg in the title role, Stacey Martin as her younger self, Stellan Skarsgard, Jamie Bell, Christian Slater, Willem Dafoe, Uma Thurman, Connie Nielsen and Udo Kier (nowhere to be seen: Shia Labeouf). There's a certain amount of fun to be had in finding the not-exactly-hidden phallic images, »

Central Europe Jumps Onto Incentives Bandwagon

14 May 2013 7:00 AM, PDT | Variety - TV News | See recent Variety - TV News news »

In the 10 years since Hungary introduced its production incentives, it has emerged as the leading country in Central and Eastern Europe in the race to pursue Hollywood blockbusters and upscale TV series.

Boosted by the 20% tax rebate, the local biz has been further strengthened by the opening of production facilities, such as Korda Studios, Stern Film Studio and Media Center, and Raleigh Studios.

For Hollywood producer Andy Vajna, who is also the Hungarian film commissioner, it is not just a question of price. “There’s always a cheaper place, no matter what you do,” he says. “So what we have to strive for is to be competitive on price, but unmatchable in quality.” Productions in Hungary this year include Brett Ratner’s feature “Hercules” for MGM-Paramount, and two TV series — NBCU’s “Dracula” and the pilot of HBO’s Cold War thriller “The Missionary,” in which Hungary doubles for East Berlin in the 1960s. »
