Anna Kendrick To Star In ‘The Last 5 Years’
1 hour ago | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »
It looks like the musical adaptation isn’t going away anytime soon as it was revealed that Pitch Perfect’s Anna Kendrick and Ex Newsies star Jeremy Jordan will be starring in The Last 5 Years. Richard Lagravenese, who recently scribed Behind The Candelabra, will be taking on writing and directing duty.
The musical, originally made for the stage by Jason Robert Brown, tells the story of Cathy Hiatt, a struggling actress and Jamie Wellerstein, a rising novelist. Through out the musical, we see the deconstruction of their love affair and marriage. In the musical, the characters never directly interact on stage except for one musical number, so we can’t wait to see if that will make it to the screen!
While Jeremy Jordan is a big star on Broadway, the film will only be his second role in a feature film. The Last 5 Years starts shooting in New York next week. »

'Comedy Bang! Bang!': Watch what happens when Andy Samberg is asked a terrible question -- Exclusive Video
5 hours ago | EW - Inside TV | See recent EW.com - Inside TV news »
When Comedy Bang! Bang! returns to IFC on July 12, Andy Samberg drops by for a delightful chat with host Scott Aukerman. Well, maybe not so much delightful as… Downright Dangerous! As you will see in the video below, something starts to smell funny when Aukerman asks the former Saturday Night Live star a rather pungent question.
Of course, Samberg, who headlines Fox’s fall comedy Brooklyn Nine-Nine, isn’t the only celebrity who will pop up this season on the off-beat series that dares to laugh in the face of the typical late-night talk show. Jessica Alba, Aziz Ansari, Jim Gaffigan, »

Rapture-Palooza Review
16 June 2013 11:05 AM, PDT | We Got This Covered | See recent We Got This Covered news »
Riding my rapture high from seeing This Is The End last night, I woke up this morning and decided to check out a lesser-known apocalyptic comedy released this weekend called Rapture-Palooza. Penned by Chris Matheson, the bodacious dude who wrote Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure, and directed by Paul Middleditch, I didn’t really know what to expect, but the cast of comedic talent attached settled my nerves before the watch. I mean you’ve got Craig Robinson, Thomas Lennon, Rob Corddry, Ken Jeong, Rob Huebel, Anna Kendrick *drools on keyboard*, and Paul Scheer, so a decent amount of laughs were expected – but unfortunately not achieved.
Rapture-Palooza tells the story of Ben (John Francis Daley) and Lindsey (Anna Kendrick), a young couple just trying to survive God’s rapture. While those rightious enough were granted amnesty from the ordeal by being accepted to heaven, modern day heathens like Ben and »

RapturePalooza (2013) Review
14 June 2013 1:02 PM, PDT | Best-Horror-Movies.com | See recent Best-Horror-Movies.com news »
RapturePalooza looks pretty good on paper This is a worldending movie which seem to be in at the moment the script is written by Bill and Teds Excellent Adventure cowriter Chris Matheson and the film has hot young star Anna Kendrick along with a list of popular comedic actors and alt comics. The Rapture or perhaps more accurately its absense has been a source of entertainment and comedy as doomsday dates have come and gone and all of us remaining on Earth. At least as far as I know. Anyway with starstudded end of the world movie This is the End hitting theaters which even also stars Craig Robinson is RapturePalooza a nice little accompanying piece No. No »
'Rapture-Palooza' review: Craig Robinson is the Anti-Christ in blasphemous stoner comedy
14 June 2013 11:40 AM, PDT | Pop2it | See recent Pop2it news »
If you're going to commit to a blasphemous stoner comedy mocking the New Testament prophesy of the coming Rapture, you'd better go all in. Because halfway isn't funny. And either way, you're going to Hell. At least in the eyes of some.
Thus, the failed deadpan comedy "Rapture-Palooza" pairs up a seriously unflappable Anna Kendrick and John Francis Daley as survivors on Earth, not taken by the Rapture, trying to fend off the amorous advances of the Anti-Christ played by Craig Robinson. And it isn't as funny as it sounds.
Sure, taking the Bible literally ("Did anyone think this Through?") in regard to the apocalypse can seem awfully silly in the age of computer-generated effects. The righteous are "sucked up into heaven" in a flash -- empty bowling shoes are all that's Left Behind ... in the bowling alley. Where's Kirk Cameron to explain all this?
Thus are the poor sinners »

Rapture-Palooza Movie Review
14 June 2013 2:02 AM, PDT | ShockYa | See recent ShockYa news »
Title: Rapture-Palooza Director: Paul Middleditch Starring: Craig Robinson, Anna Kendrick, John Francis Daley, Rob Corddry, Ana Gasteyer, John Michael Higgins, Rob Huebel, Thomas Lennon, Ken Jeong, Paul Scheer, Tyler Labine, Calum Worthy The idea of an Earth-bound fistfight between a foul-mouthed God and equally lewd Satan, complete with shots to the groin, sounds anarchic and wild. And certainly the participation of the roster of comedically gifted talents listed above inspires some level of buzzy expectation. But in a post-”South Park” world, lazy execution of a ribald, potentially controversial concept will not suffice — especially not when the apocalypse is being handled with much more wit, vim and verve just across the megaplex, in the form of [ Read More ]

Anna Kendrick Copies Carrie Bradshaw's Famous Tank and Tutu Combo
13 June 2013 12:36 PM, PDT | E! Online | See recent E! Online news »
Oh no she didn't! There are certain looks you just do not attempt to re-create and Anna Kendrick is testing that rule in this very Carrie Bradshaw combo. Yes, the Twilight: Breaking Dawn star's See by Chloe look is the reverse color combo from what Sarah Jessica Parker wore in the most famous TV show intro of our time (as far as we're concerned), but the ballet feel and casual tee on top is unmistakable. We are pleased to say that the original still stands as the victor in this fashion battle. The Up in the Air actress would benefit from a slightly higher waist and slightly shorter skirt. Then again, there's a chance we're slightly biased »

Anna Kendrick's Big Surprise
11 June 2013 9:36 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
New York — They say it's not over till the fat lady sings – and that means Fat Amy isn't ready to put down her microphone.
The movie "Pitch Perfect," which was released in September and grossed $65 million domestically, is also a success on the music charts, where the film's soundtrack has peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 and has sold more than 713,961 units so far, according to Nielsen SoundScan. The film stars Rebel Wilson (Fat Amy) and Anna Kendrick (Beca) as members of the all-girl a cappella group, The Barden Bellas, who are battling other a cappella groups in a national competition.
Kendrick's rendition of the folk-pop tune "Cups" is helping push the soundtrack to musical heights: The song has sold one million tracks and currently sits at No. 27 on the Hot 100 chart.
"It's totally surprising," the perky, red-haired 27-year-old said. "I always figured soundtrack sales would be a part of »

Zach Braff’s sophomore feature, Wish I Was Here, has been progressing incredibly well in recent weeks.

Heimann’s career spans across three decades, and she has worked on some of the most memorable and acclaimed films over the years, including (but certainly not limited to) Reservoir Dogs, Jerry Maguire, Almost Famous, Vanilla Sky, Art School Confidential, Funny People, and what Braff notes is his personal favourite, »
