To have one giant money-losing tentpole is unfortunate. To have two starts to look careless, and that's what's happened to Taylor Kitsch. The actor, who broke out on TV's "Friday Night Lights," was seen as Hollywood's next great hope, picked out to star in two great big blockbusters with a combined cost of half-a-billion dollars. But when "John Carter" arrived in March, the film wildly underperformed, with Disney taking a hit of at least $100 million on the project. And after this weekend, it looks that his other film, "Battleship," is going to lose similar amounts.
The film, Universal & Hasbro's adaptation of the board game, directed by "Hancock" helmer Peter Berg, had taken the unusual step of opening everywhere else in the world six weeks ahead of the U.S, in the hope of bagging lucrative foreign coin and building buzz for the U.S. release. But while the film did ok abroad, »

Kristen Stewart becomes a sultry vampire in the last Twilight movie, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2. How sultry? How vampiresque? Just check out the Kristen Stewart photo on the right, taken at the Snow White and the Huntsman World Premiere held in London earlier this week. The Kristen Stewart dress is described as a "Gothic lace Marchesa" in The Hollywood Reporter. And whether or not you care for how celebrities dress (and I couldn’t give a damn), Stewart’s garment was a memorable fashion statement. The makeup has no description that I’ve seen, but it’s, huh, a memorable makeup statement all the same. As part of the Snow White and the Huntsman promo, the Swath team also posed for pictures at the Arundel Castle in West Sussex, England. Snow White (Kristen Stewart) showed up in a miniskirt, accompanied by the Evil Queen (Charlize Theron), the cleaned-up »

Snow White and the Huntsman: Snow White (Kristen Stewart) and white stag A magical white stag bows before Kristen Stewart’s Snow White in this Snow White and the Huntsman clip, “She’s the One.” (Please scroll down.) Stewart, who has nothing to say, looks quite beautiful and so does the stag. Dominic Watkins‘ production design in Snow White and the Huntsman looks simply superb. Chris Hemsworth, whose Huntsman hasn’t bathed since long before the fall of the Roman Empire, doesn’t have much to say in this Snow White and the Huntsman clip ("What you’re talking about?"). But after watching the previous Swath clip, I’m not sure I buy his uncouth British accent — or his lines. More convincing is Bob Hoskins (Oscar nominee for Mona Lisa, 1986) as one of the dwarves. Hoskins has a great little monologue; the way he delivers each word, you’d »

Chris Hemsworth, Huntsman: Snow White and the Huntsman Charlize Theron is possessed by the Bette Davis of The Private Lives of Elizabeth and Essex (and The Virgin Queen) in this Snow White and the Huntsman clip. (Please scroll down.) Chris Hemsworth is the Huntsman who is brave (or stupid or crazy) enough to dare think he has the option not to do what his queen is telling him to. The "she" referred to in the Snow White and the Huntsman clip is, needless to say, Snow White (Kristen Stewart). According to a cool-looking talking mirror, Snow White is destined to surpass the Queen in sheer fairness. The Queen, none too happy, wants Snow to melt away. Snow, however, turns out to be as resilient as she’s white. Directed by Rupert Sanders, Snow White and the Huntsman opens June 1. In addition to Charlize Theron (to be seen in Ridley Scott »

Snow White and the Huntsman movie poster Where’s Kristen Stewart‘s Snow White on the Snow White and the Huntsman movie poster? Oh, Stewart is there, on the left, slightly below Chris Hemsworth‘s Huntsman. But visitor, visitor, who’s the most visible of them all? Personally, I’d say Charlize Theron‘s Evil Queen, holding the biggest dagger in the known universe and surrounded by crows (ravens?) coming out of her robe. (Notice that this poster is similar but less action-packed than the French Snow White and the Huntsman poster.) Directed by first-timer Rupert Sanders, Snow White and the Huntsman opens June 1. Though not expected to break any box-office records, Snow White and the Huntsman is expected to fare quite well at the box office. After all, Swath is Kristen Stewart’s first "commercial" movie role since Bella Swan in the phenomenally successful Twilight movies. And it is »

Honestly, if I was forced to judge Summer 2012 at first glance, I would say it was pretty weak. Compared to 2011 and 2010, there's just not as many movies to look forward to. While it seems easy to write off this Summer as a dud, I have three reasons why it might actually be awesome; The Dark Knight Rises, The Avengers, and Prometheus. Honestly, that's all Summer 2012 needs in order to be one for the history books. Even then, there's still more than enough films to warrant your attention this summer. To help you sort through them all, we've once again compiled all the most interesting films of the season into four easy to read, informative guides. For the next four days, we'll take you on a journey through the best cinema has to offer in Summer 2012. Welcome to our Summer 2012 Movie Guide! Today, we will focus on June 2012, one of the biggest months of the year. »

It doesn't look like Universal has any doubts that "Snow White and the Huntsman" is going to be one of the biggest hits of the summer.
Despite the fact that the film won't be hitting theaters for another month, the studio is wasting no time in planning a sequel to the dark fairy tale — and it's looking to recruit one of the most prolific (and expensive) screenwriters in Hollywood to tell the tale, according to Deadline.
David Koepp has built a reputation as a go-to blockbuster writer, having penned films for Steven Spielberg ("Jurassic Park," "The Lost World," "War of the Worlds," "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull"), Sam Raimi ("Spider-Man"), David Fincher ("Panic Room"), Brian De Palma ("Carlito's Way," "Mission: Impossible," "Snake Eyes"), Ron Howard ("Angels & Demons") and Barry Sonnenfeld (this summer's "Men in Black III").

Kristen Stewart, Snow White and the Huntsman Snow White And The Huntsman Sequel in the Works? As a result of the Hollywood Reporter article, the Internet became abuzz with rumors and speculations that Snow White (Kristen Stewart) would thus fall by the sidelines in the Snow White and the Huntsman sequel(s). Of course, everything is possible. But that would be a bizarre, myopic move on the part of Universal both in terms of story cohesiveness and box office. After all, not only is Snow White the central element in the tale — her very being sets the plot in motion — but Kristen Stewart’s box-office pull in a major movie would be underestimated only by total fools. (Not that Hollywood doesn’t have its large share of those in positions of power.) Those who claim that the Twilight movies would have become worldwide blockbusters with or without Stewart as Bella »

In keeping with the trend of studios jumping the gun on potential franchises, Universal is looking to get a script going for a sequel to this summer’s Snow White and the Huntsman. The studio is apparently already in discussions with David Koepp (Spider-Man) to get to work on a sequel to the highly anticipated fantasy epic. Apparently Universal is hoping to fast track the project so they can make it director Rupert Sanders’ next film. The trailers have actually been quite impressive for the dark take on the classic tale, and Sanders looks to have crafted a decidedly unique and epic film. Hit the jump for more. News of Koepp’s involvement comes via Deadline, but Universal president Ron Meyer previously revealed that they hope to build a franchise around the Huntsman character of the film (played by the incredibly busy Chris Hemsworth). No word on where that leaves »

It doesn't open for another month, but Universal is already moving ahead with a sequel to the fantasy epic "Snow White and the Huntsman." The studio is in talks with veteran screenwriter David Koepp ("Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull," "Spider-Man") to pen the sequel. "Huntsman" was written by Evan Daugherty, John Lee Hancock ("The Blind Side") and Hossein Amini ("Drive"). According to Deadline, the studio wants to fast-track the sequel with Rupert Sanders returning as director. Stars Kristen Stewart and Chris Hemsworth ("The Avengers") and Oscar-winner Charlize Theron ("Monster," "Prometheus") are also likely to reprise their roles. The »

Kristen Stewart's Snow White movie: Snow White and the Huntsman Kristen Stewart is seen above as Snow White in recently released images from Rupert Sanders' Snow White and the Huntsman. Despite the sunny, lush, fairy-tale-ish visual of this particular shot, Snow White and the Huntsman looks and sounds like a dark, fantastical story for adults. Check out the Swath trailer/TV spot. Distributed by Universal, Snow White and the Huntsman opens June 1. Stewart's co-stars are Thor / The Avengers' Chris Hemsworth as the Huntsman, Prometheus / Young Adult's Charlize Theron (Best Actress Oscar winner for Monster) as the Evil Queen, and Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides' Sam Claflin as Prince Charming. [See also Beautiful Kristen Stewart photo.] Snow White and the Huntsman's screenplay is credited to Killing Season's Evan Daugherty, The Blind Side / The Rookie's John Lee Hancock, and Drive / The Wings of the Dove's Hossein Amini.

The Partner, the first John Grisham adaptation for nearly a decade, moves closer to production.
John Grisham adaptations were all the rage for a while, with many of the writer's works being adapted between 1993 and 2004 (Christmas With The Kranks being the last). But for the best part of a decade it has been all quiet on the Grisham adaptation front. That looks to change now however as Mark Wahlberg is attached to star in and produce The Partner, a Grisham novel from 1997 that somehow missed the adaptation craze.
It follows a disgruntled lawyer who decides to embezzle a considerable sum of money from his employer, before faking his own death, as you do. Despite working out for a while, his actions soon catch up with him with some added complications .
Wahlberg will tackle the project alongside longtime collaborator Stephen Levinson who he has worked on Entourage with as well as Contraband. »

Mark Wahlberg is in talks for New Regency’s legal thriller, The Partner, the big screen adaptation of a John Grisham’s 1997 novel. The last adapted Grisham’s novel was 2001s Skipping Christmas, a comedy novel adapted for the 2004 film Christmas With the Kranks starring Tim Allen and Jamie Lee Curtis. Wahlberg would not only play [...]

Mark Wahlberg knows a thing or two about making hit movies, something author John Grisham could use a refresher course in.
Variety reports that the "Contraband" star is in talks to produce and give a much-needed facelift to the big screen adaptations of Grisham's work with a possible role as star and producer of the prolific author's 1997 novel "The Partner."
The legal thriller tells the story of Patrick Lanigan, a cuckolded Mississippi lawyer who fakes his own death in order to steal millions from his own firm.
While Grisham had a number of his bestselling novels made into box office hits in the '90s, including "The Pelican Brief," "A Time to Kill" and "The Rainmaker," the more recent adaptations of his work have been flops. 2003's "Runaway Jury" was a critical hit, despite making meager profits at the box office, while the most recent movie based on his writing, »

Walt Disney once endured an epic struggle to bring Mary Poppins to the big screen. First he had a fourteen year fight with the Australian author P.L. Travers, the writer behind the creation, who fought his every move to make it into a film. Not many people know about the hard road Disney travelled to film the project, but everyone knows the outcome: mary Poppins became a money spinning classic for Disney and it turned the young Julie Andrews into a worldwide star. Now Hollywood A-Lister Tom Hanks, who's work helped the long-running Toy Story franchise to earn almost $2 billion globally, is said to be considering playing Disney himself. Or at least that's the hope that Disney is holding out for Hanks to play their famous founder in Saving Mr. Banks, the real-life story of the legendary animators fraught attempts to secure the rights and bring Mary Poppins to the silver screen. »
