New Pics From the Gangster Squad
23 May 2012 9:15 AM, PDT | Beyond Hollywood | See recent Beyond Hollywood news »
Ah, Tommy Guns. What can’t they do? Well, your laundry, for one, but then you could just use your Tommy Gun to force the old lady down the block to do that, so you know, win-win. Anyways, here are some new images from Ruben Fleischer’s period gangster flick “Gangster Squad”. Yes, it appears they’ve dumped the “The” part of the title and are only going with “Gangster Squad” now. I can dig it. Los Angeles, 1949. Ruthless, Brooklyn-born mob king Mickey Cohen (Sean Penn) runs the show in this town, reaping the ill-gotten gains from the drugs, the guns, the prostitutes and–if he has his way–every wire bet placed west of Chicago. And he does it all with the protection of not only his own paid goons, but also the police and the politicians who are under his control. It’s enough to intimidate even the bravest, »

‘Gangster Squad’ starring Josh Brolin, Ryan Gosling and Sean Penn – trailer review
21 May 2012 9:04 AM, PDT | The Scorecard Review | See recent Scorecard Review news »
Directed by: Ruben Fleischer
Starring: Josh Brolin, Ryan Gosling, Sean Penn, Emma Stone
Rating: Not Yet Rated
Release Date: September 7, 2012
Trailer Score: 6/10
Thoughts by Tsr: This is a film that’s been on my radar for quite some time, but one I still needed to be sold on. I didn’t care for Zombieland, so I was skeptical about Ruben Fleischer jumping from that (and 30 Minutes or Less) to a true life La cops and mobsters project. While this trailer doesn’t assuage those concerns, I’m still interested to see how it turns out.
I’m most hesitant to embrace Fleischer’s style. The digital lensing could make the film too glossy, and the stylization feels a bit much. It’s not all bad though. The shot of them shooting through the screen is an awesome, memorable visual.
The thing that pains me the most, however, is »

New 'Gangster Squad' Photos Pop With Explosive Tommy Gun Fire From An Angry Sean Penn

While that rumored appearance at Cannes never happened (and given the mixed reception to the similar period shoot-em-up "Lawless," perhaps it was a good move), the buzz is starting to build on Warner Bros' "Gangster Squad." A trailer landed a few weeks back, and soon after it was given a September 7th release date, where it'll compete directly with John Hillcoat's film for the late summer/early fall audience that saw films like "The Town" and "Contagion" become hits in the last few years.
Directed by Ruben Fleischer ("Zombieland," "30 Minutes Or Less"), the film, about an elite Lapd unit assigned with taking down mobster Mickey Cohen in the 1940s, the film has an all-star cast, featuring Josh Brolin, Ryan Gosling, Nick Nolte, Robert Patrick, Michael Peña, Giovanni Ribisi, Anthony Mackie, Emma Stone and Sean Penn as Cohen, and Penn is front and center in a new batch of images »

Sean Penn and his Tommy Gun & More in Brilliant New Images from Gangster Squad
21 May 2012 6:00 AM, PDT | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »
Warner Bros. debuted the first trailer for Ruben Fleischer’s Gangster Squad earlier this month, and it pretty much set the Internet abuzz with its brilliance.
With an all-star cast headed up by Sean Penn, Ryan Gosling, Emma Stone, and Josh Brolin, it’s all but guaranteed to be one of the year’s best films, not to mention the fact that Giovanni Ribisi, Nick Nolte, Michael Peña, Anthony Mackie, and Robert Patrick are all supporting.
Adding to the awesome first trailer, the film’s official website has put up a new batch* of images, with Penn looking terrific as the mob king, Mickey Cohen.
“Los Angeles, 1949. Ruthless, Brooklyn-born mob king Mickey Cohen (Sean Penn) runs the show in this town, reaping the ill-gotten gains from the drugs, the guns, the prostitutes and—if he has his way—every wire bet placed west of Chicago. And he does it all »

Sandra Bullock's 'Gravity' Shifts To 2013 Release Date
15 May 2012 10:29 AM, PDT | MTV Movies Blog | See recent MTV Movies Blog news »
Alfonso Cuaron is doing some crazy stuff in his upcoming film, "Gravity." In fact, it seems like it's so out of this world (literally) that Warner Bros has opted to push the movie's release date back until 2013.
Originally "Gravity" was expected to hit theaters in November, just in time for awards season, but the effects-heavy film was recently test screened for some audiences to mixed reviews. Many commented that the CGI was "far from being done," which might have spurred the current delay.
That leaves "Gravity" without an official release date, though at least now "Gangster Squad" has been slated in for September 7. After a great first trailer, the Ruben Fleischer-directed period drama has garnered some serious buzz.
"Gravity" stars Sandra Bullock and George Clooney, though the movie is said to largely follow Bullock by herself in space. She plays a medical engineer named Dr. Ryan Stone who is »

Sorry, Sandra: Highly Anticipated 'Gravity' Bumped To 2013
15 May 2012 6:30 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
"Gangster Squad": the new "Contagion"? Warner Bros. sure hopes so!
The studio has finally settled on a release date for the Ryan Gosling-led gangster film: Sept. 7, the same weekend that Warner Bros. successfully opened "Contagion" in 2011. The star-studded apocalypse porn from director Steven Soderbergh debuted with $22.4 million in ticket sales, on its way to $75.6 million in North American receipts. Around the world, "Contagion" earned $135.4 million.
Directed by Ruben Fleischer ("Zombieland") and starring Gosling, Josh Brolin, Sean Penn and Emma Stone, "Gangster Squad" was initially pegged as a potential Oscar contender. Its style-over-substance first trailer and post-Labor Day release date, however, say otherwise.
Meanwhile, in disappointing news: Warner Bros. also shifted the release date of "Gravity" to sometime in 2013. The film -- the follow-up to "Children of Men" for director Alfonso Cuaron -- was initially earmarked for a Nov. 21 rollout. "Gravity" stars Sandra Bullock as an astronaut lost »

‘Gangster Squad’ Lands New Release Date, ‘Gravity’ Delayed to 2013
14 May 2012 8:00 PM, PDT | ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news »
The heads over at Warner Bros. have reshuffled release dates for two noteworthy upcoming titles: the star-studded period crime drama Gangster Squad – and the technologically-innovative, 3D sci-fi thriller Gravity.
Gangster Squad previously had (then briefly lost) an October 2012 release date; it’s now set to hit theaters this year on September 7th. Gravity has been removed from the Thanksgiving 2012 holiday frame, for a (tentatively) unspecified date in 2013.
We here at Screen Rant have been keeping a close eye on Gangster Squad for the past year; the talent connected to this project alone was sufficient to land it a spot on our 20 Most Anticipated Movies of 2012 list. Thanks to the premiere of a shiny official trailer last week, Ruben Fleischer’s third go in the director’s seat (after Zombieland and 30: Minutes ...

WB Shifts 'Gravity' to 2013, 'Gangster Squad' Now Set for September
14 May 2012 5:31 PM, PDT | firstshowing.net | See recent FirstShowing.net news »
Now they know what they've got on their hands. After a recent test screening in Los Angeles of Alfonso Cuarón's new sci-fi Gravity (which result in a few leaked early reviews), Warner Bros has moved the film off the 2012 release schedule and into 2013 instead. No new date is set yet, but BoxOfficeMojo and Deadline both confirm it's no longer arriving in November at Thanksgiving this year, as originally scheduled. Damn - this is one I was very excited about! Additionally, WB has now given Ruben Fleischer's Gangster Squad, which just debuted its trailer, an official release date in September - a rather fast opening after the trailer. The big WB has now set Gangster Squad, which stars Sean Penn, Ryan Gosling, Anthony Mackie, Emma Stone and Josh Brolin, for release on September 7th later this year. That means it's playing against The Cold Light of Day right after »

Gangster Squad Gets A New Release Date, Gravity Delayed Until 2013
14 May 2012 5:11 PM, PDT | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »
If you're like me, when the first trailer for Gangster Squad arrived online last week you immediately said, "I want to see that movie now." Unfortunately, there stood one major problem: the film didn't have a release date. Back in April Warner Bros. decided to do a bit of schedule shifting and moved Ben Affleck's Argo, a political period thriller, back one month to October 12th. The reason why this was a problem was because Gangster Squad was originally meant to open on that date, and because the studio didn't want two of its own films competing against each other Gangster Squad had to move. Thankfully the Ruben Fleischer-directed gangster movie has once again been blessed with a release date. According to Box Office Mojo, WB has officially given a new release date to Gangster Squad and the film will now hit theaters on September 7th. It's a »
Warner Bros. Moves Alfonso Cuaron’s Gravity to 2013; Sets Gangster Squad for Release on September 7
14 May 2012 4:29 PM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
Many people (myself included) were counting director Alfonso Cuaron’s ambitious sci-fi pic Gravity as one of their most anticipated films of 2012. Well, now we’re all gonna have to wait a little longer, as Warner Bros. has lifted the film off of its November release date and set it for sometime in 2013. This is a big bummer, but the film most likely has some insane visual effects work to finish in post-production. Sandra Bullock stars as an astronaut stranded in space, and she’s apparently the only actor onscreen for the majority of the film. Though I’m sad to have to wait, I’m confident that the move was made in the film’s best interest. I’d rather have the Gravity Cuaron intends to release rather than a rushed version. It's also entirely possible that Warner Bros. just felt that their slate was too crowded to premiered Gravity. »
