‘Modern Family’ Star Eric Stonestreet Joins Melissa McCarthy and Jason Bateman for ‘Identity Thief’
25 May 2012 6:00 AM, PDT | The Film Stage | See recent The Film Stage news »
After starring on the Emmy award-winning TV show Modern Family, it was only a matter of time before Eric Stonestreet made his way to big screen roles. According to THR, the TV star has lined up another feature and will be joining Jason Bateman and Melissa McCarthy for the upcoming comedy, Identity Thief.
Horrible Bosses director Seth Gordon will be helming the project, which “centers on a milquetoast family man (Bateman) who gets a life lesson in stepping up when his identity is stolen by a mess of a woman (McCarthy).” Stonestreet will also be joining Amanda Peet, John Cho, Jon Favreau and Genesis Rodriguez. He will be playing Big Chuck, “a realty broker with an outsized personality who has a run-in with McCarthy and Bateman‘s characters.”
Stonestreet was last seen on the big screen in Bad Teacher alongside Cameron Diaz, with his indie project The Loft also in production. »

Modern Family's Eric Stonestreet Joins Identity Thief
24 May 2012 4:55 PM, PDT | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »
Following her breakout performance in Bridesmaids that earned her widespread fame as well as Oscar acclaim, fearless comedienne Melissa McCarthy soon signed on to co-star opposite Jason Bateman in the crime caper Identity Thief. That pairing alone had many looking forward to director Seth Gordon's follow-up to Horrible Bosses. Then as the feature geared up for its start-date, it began culling together a pretty spectacular supporting cast that includes Jon Favreau, John Cho, Clark Duke, Amanda Peet, and the rapper T.I. And now, with Identity Thief in full-on production mode down in Atlanta, THR reveals Emmy-winner Eric Stonestreet is the comedy's latest cast addition. (Sidenote: whoever picked the picture for the trade's piece must hate Stonestreet. Yeesh.) In Identity Thief McCarthy stars as the eponymous criminal, a hot mess of a woman who manages to pull one of her victims, a timid family man played by Bateman, into »

Dito Montiel’s ‘Empire State’ Adds Several to Cast; Morris Chestnut An ‘Identity Thief’
24 May 2012 10:51 AM, PDT | The Film Stage | See recent The Film Stage news »
With Dwayne Johnson, Liam Hemsworth, and Emma Roberts seemingly ready to lead Empire State, Dito Montiel has started to track down supporting players in his real-life crime drama. Deadline has two reports on this front, telling us that Chris Diamantopoulos (The Three Stooges), Michael Angarano (Red State), Nikki Reed (Twilight), Jerry Ferrara (Entourage), and Paul Ben-Victor (The Wire) will all take some screen space. (It’s pointed out that Ben-Victor and Diamantopoulos have both played Moe Howard in the past. Trivia!)
Adam Mazer wrote the film, which centers on “two childhood friends from Astoria, N.Y., who plan to rob an armored car depository, with Johnson playing the NYPD detective out to bust them.” Diamantopoulos is the only one with a confirmed role, and it seems like a big one; he’ll play a mob boss who realizes that only two people committed a robbery, while everyone else thinks its a group of criminals. »

The first clip has arrived for Total Recall, director Len Wiseman's sci-fi reboot which hits theaters August 3. Actress Kate Beckinsale debuted this scene on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, which features her character, Lori, comforting her 'husband' Douglas Quaid (Colin Farrell), before trying to take him out. Take a look at this duplicitous character in action by skipping to the 5:38 mark of this video.

First Clip and TV Spot from Total Recall; Plus a New Image Featuring Colin Farrell and Kate Beckinsale
23 May 2012 12:35 PM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
The first clip and TV spot for director Len Wiseman’s remake of Total Recall have landed online. The clip should be familiar to fans of the 1990 Total Recall starring Arnold Scharzenegger, as it features Colin Farrell’s character coming home to his “wife” played by Kate Beckinsale after some unknown assailants tried to capture him. A fight ensues and, needless to say, Beckinsale’s iteration of Lori appears to be much more lethal (and bendy) than Sharon Stone’s. We’ve also got the first TV spot for the film, which does a nice job of setting up the plot for those unfamiliar with the material. Though I’m still unsure about the pic storywise, the visuals on display in the clip and TV spot promise some intense sci-fi action as well as lens flares that would make J.J. Abrams proud. Hit the jump to check out the clip, »

The Fringe: The First TV Spot for the Total Recall Remake
23 May 2012 7:36 AM, PDT | shocktillyoudrop.com | See recent shocktillyoudrop news »
The Fringe is a place where non-horror genre films can get some play on Shock. These films might be sci-fi, fantasy or action - and certainly contain some horror elements - but will likely be light on scares, or, straight-up "horror." Still, they might be of interest to you.
Our brother site, ComingSoon.net, landed a TV spot for Len (Underworld) Wiseman's forthcoming remake of Total Recall.
Opening in theaters on August 3, the action thriller stars Colin Farrell, Kate Beckinsale, Jessica Biel, Bryan Cranston, John Cho and Bill Nighy. The film is based on Philip K. Dick's "We Can Remember It For You Wholesale."

T.I. Joins Melissa McCarthy And Jason Bateman In Identity Thief
22 May 2012 3:37 PM, PDT | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »
While the rapper known as T.I. does have some acting experience, namely in movies like A.T.L., American Gangster and Takers, he has now signed on for a part in a movie that should be wildly different than his previous gigs. Deadline has learned that T.I. has accepted a part in Identity Thief, the new comedy from director Seth Gordon. The movie is about a mild-mannered family man on the rise in his industry whose life is utterly destroyed when his identity is stolen by a trainwreck of a woman. Jason Bateman will be playing the lead while Melissa McCarthy is on-board as the antagonist. Also in the supporting cast are Jon Favreau, John Cho, Clark Duke and Amanda Peet. The script was originally written by Steve Conrad and the most recent draft was done by Craig Mazin. Seth Gordon is best known for helming last summer's »
Ralph Fiennes Leading Russian Costume Drama ‘Two Women’; T.I. Joins ‘Identity Thief’
22 May 2012 12:13 PM, PDT | The Film Stage | See recent The Film Stage news »
You’ll have to excuse this — for myself, something about it feels a little embarrassing — but I’m not entirely sure what’s going on here. Deadline reports that Ralph Fiennes will be leading The Two Women, a Russia-set period piece based on the work of 19th-century author Ivan Turgenev that Vera Glagoleva will be directing. (No, it’s not a prequel to Robert Altman‘s 1977 classic.)
What’s odd, then, is that some basic searching around brings no evidence that Turgenev produced any work titled The Two Women, nor can I find any solid information pertaining to what may actually come. Film Base Berlin are moving forward with the project — whatever it may be — and, thanks to Fiennes, we’ll be paying attention as things start to develop.
Deadline has some other, more definitive news, saying that rapper T.I. is the next actor to climb on Identity Thief. »
