Noomi Rapace Considered Boob Job For Sexy Role
4 hours ago | WENN | See recent WENN news »
Swedish actress Noomi Rapace was so serious about accurately portraying a busty blonde in her new movie, she met with doctors to discuss having breast implants for the role.
The method actor famously worked out and got piercings to fully transform into Lisbeth Salander in the original movie adaptation of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, and even considered having the character's body art permanently tattooed to her skin.
And the star admits she thought about going even further for a sexy new role - by going under the knife so her curves looked real on the big screen.
She tells Britain's Telegraph magazine, "I'm doing this movie later on, where I'm supposed to be blonde and blue-eyed with pretty big boobies. I was thinking about putting in fake t**s - because so many actresses do it, although not for a specific role. I went to a clinic and met a doctor, and did a lot of research."
However, Rapace ultimately decided against plastic surgery - although she's not completely ruled it out in the future.
She adds, "It's a big procedure - it's quite painful, and then I'd need to take them (breast implants) out again for the part I'm doing afterwards. So although I'm not afraid of pushing it, I don't want to do surgery. Probably." »
Production Designer Arthur Max Talks Prometheus Movie
7 hours ago | WeAreMovieGeeks.com | See recent WeAreMovieGeeks.com news »
Although Ridley Scott has long embraced cinema.s .new tricks and toys,. including computer-generated imagery, he is also known for his belief in filming what he calls .the real thing,. i.e. practical sets. Indeed, with so many of today.s epic genre films relying heavily on CGI, Prometheus is a rarity: it presents a massive sci-fi world where most of the sets, props and stunts are real. This provides an impressive tactile reality, with one set being more stunning than the next. As one production crew member puts it: .Ridley built the greatest alien playground in the world..
The cast and crew were in awe of the efforts of production designer Arthur Max and his team of artisans. .It is hard to overstate the impact of walking on those sets,. says executive producer Michael Ellenberg. .It was inspiring on so many levels. There are so many understated, instinctual things »

Noomi Rapace Reluctant To Move To Hollywood
10 hours ago | WENN | See recent WENN news »
Swedish actress Noomi Rapace was apprehensive about moving to Los Angeles to further her film career, because she didn't want to get swept up in the Hollywood lifestyle.
Rapace was a star in her own country but achieved international success when she was cast in the Swedish version of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo in 2009.
She has since broken into Hollywood movies, including Ridley Scott's highly-anticipated Prometheus, but was reluctant to make the move Stateside.
It was only after her manager Shelley Browning convinced Rapace that her own idols all live in Tinseltown that she started to consider setting up home in the city.
She tells The New York Times Magazine, "I thought L.A. was more about celebrities and red carpets and glossy big lips and big t**s. I said to Shelley when we met, 'I don't want to go to Hollywood. That's not for me. I want to do real movies.'
"And then she said, 'But who do you actually like?' I started to mention people, and she said, 'Those people actually live in La'." »

Scott wants Ford for Blade Runner sequel
14 hours ago | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »
Director hopes Ford will take a cameo role in forthcoming sci-fi outing, saying 'I've got to have him in it somewhere'
Harrison Ford may take a small role in Ridley Scott's forthcoming Blade Runner sequel, according to the director.
In an interview with the Independent, Scott said he hoped Ford would take a guest role in the planned project. "I don't think it'll be Harry [starring]," he said. "But I've got to have him in it somewhere. That'd be amusing."
It emerged earlier this year that Ford was in talks for the new Blade Runner film, which has since been revealed as a sequel with a female protagonist at its core. The actor, now 69, played the lead role of replicant hunter Rick Deckard in Scott's classic 1982 future noir. Scott's involvement was revealed in March last year and followed his decision to return to science fiction film-making after three decades with Prometheus, »

How ‘Bout Just One More Prometheus TV Spot?
22 hours ago | iconsoffright.com | See recent Icons of Fright news »
As I mentioned in our previous post, I’m trying my best now to just avoid anymore promotional materials for Prometheus. I’m just so darned excited to see Ridley Scott’s grand return to the Alien universe. But what the hell… what’s one more look going to do this close to the movie’s release other than continue to build in that excitement?! Besides, if you tag a TV Spot with the words “monster tentacles” the way it’s labeled on You Tube, then I of course have to have a look! So here we go…
June 8th couldn’t get here soon enough! Directed by Ridley Scott, Prometheus stars Noomi Rapace, Michael Fassbender and Charlize Theron. »

Ridley Scott Says Harrison Ford Will Likely Appear In 'Blade Runner' Sequel, But Won't Be The Focus
27 May 2012 7:40 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
It's a Ridley Scott-packed weekend. The filmmaker's secretive, kinda "Alien"-related film, "Prometheus," is right around the corner and the buzz and promotion are at an all time high. That film's star, Noomi Rapace, is on the cover of the New York Times magazine this weekend (with some spoilers along to boot), and as an extra added incentive to see the film in theaters (like you need one), Fox and The Weinstein Company evidently plan to put the trailer for Quentin Taratino's "Django Unchained" in front of it when it opens on June 8th.
But the 74-year-old director is already looking towards the future. His next film, "The Counselor," starring Michael Fassbender, Brad Pitt, Javier Bardem, Penelope Cruz and Cameron Diaz, shoots later this year (Fassbender has to deal with "Twelve Years A Slave" first which begins in late June in New Orleans), and potentially percolating after that -- »

Isabelle Huppert: 'There's such respect for movies here'
26 May 2012 4:12 PM, PDT | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »
Huppert has two films at Cannes 2012, and has been involved with the festival for years. She explains why she loves it
You're the queen of Cannes – you've been master of ceremonies, been on the jury and been its president, have won best actress twice and have two films here this year, Michael Haneke's Amour and Hong Sang-soo's In Another Country…
I am happy here and it means a lot to me. I used to find it difficult, the red carpet, the interviews, but I know the routine and the ritual now very well, so I've grown to like it. Also there's such respect for the movies here, for the directors and the actors, that you feel a heat, a compassion when you go up the steps, like something's really beginning. It can be upsetting if afterwards they don't like your film, but actually it's still very interesting to see »

What's The Scene Noomi Rapace Can't Talk About In 'Prometheus'?
26 May 2012 1:47 PM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
In a couple of days critics will start seeing "Prometheus," in less than a week it opens internationally, and soon the lid will be off the box of Ridley Scott's return to sci-fi as we'll finally experience what the director has conjured up in his kinda-sorta "Alien" prequel. While diehard fans have been covering their ears and eyes hoping to go in fresh, the Fox marketing team has been on a blitzkrieg dropping numerous TV spots, clips and images from the movie. And well, a few more details have squeaked out in the New York Times profile of Noomi Rapace, adding another dimension to the upcoming film. Warning: there are spoilers so stop reading here if you don't want to know anything more.
By now, the broad strokes of the movie are known, with the crew of the Prometheus headed to outer space in response to what they believe »

Django Unchained Teaser Trailer to Play in Front of Prometheus
25 May 2012 6:20 PM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
If you needed another excuse to go see Ridley Scott's Prometheus next month, how about this: the first teaser trailer for Django Unchained will play in front of it. Marketing for the sci-fi pseudo-prequel to Alien has been relatively slow and steady (then again, everything is relatively slow and steady compared to The Avengers and The Dark Knight Rises), but we did recently post two new featurettes and a clip in addition to the somewhat spoilery trailer. All just part of the buildup to the June 8th release right around the corner. Django Unchained, on the other hand, won't open for more than six months after Prometheus, but that doesn't mean we've been resting on our laurels. Hit the jump to see a recap of all of our previous and continuing coverage on both films. Variety's Stuart Oldham reported via Twitter that the first teaser trailer for Djano Unchained »

Django Unchained Trailer to Debut with Prometheus
25 May 2012 5:59 PM, PDT | MovieWeb | See recent MovieWeb news »
Quentin Tarantino was in Cannes this past week to show off a sizzle reel from his upcoming Western Django Unchained. Those lucky enough to have seen it have done nothing but praise it. Most of us, though, still have to wait a while before getting a glimpse of this action yarn starring Jamie Foxx as a former slave trying to retrieve his wife from a ruthless plantation owner.
Apparently, if we are to believe rumors, the wait to see footage from Django Unchained isn't going to be as long as we initially thought. Word around the internet this late Friday afternoon, heading into Memorial Day Weekend is, we will be getting the first trailer on June 8th.
According to various inside sources, the trailer will be debuting in front of 20th Century Fox's Prometheus. There is no connection between the two films, other than that Prometheus is rated R, and »

Prometheus: Latest Featurettes Focus on Ridley Scott's "Vision" and Logan "Charlie Holloway" Marshall-Green
25 May 2012 2:33 PM, PDT | Reelzchannel.com | See recent ReelzChannel news »
Even if you haven't been following the news about Prometheus as long as we have, 20th Century Fox has been releasing numerous short featurettes in recent weeks, offering you everything you need to know about director Ridley Scott's long-awaited return to science fiction without spoiling any of the surprises.
So far, we've learned a bit about Scott's background in sci-fi and that he's from the "all about everything school" of directing. Then, we were clued in on the the "Origins" of the movie and of the mission of the spaceship Prometheus. We were also introduced to scientist Elizabeth Shaw (Noomi Rapace) and corporate taskmaster Meredith Vickers (Charlize Theron), two crew members who seem to have diametrically opposed agendas for the mission. Now, Fox has released two new featurettes, one that offers a look behind the scenes at Scott's "Vision" for the movie — from the grand concepts at the heart »

Noomi Rapace’s Odd Childhood Prepared Her for Unconventional Roles
25 May 2012 10:00 AM, PDT | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »
There's a big profile of Prometheus star, Swedish actress Noomi Rapace, in this Sunday's New York Times Magazine, and author Karen Olsson has something of a theory about why Rapace is drawn to playing outcasts, like her signature role as Lisbeth Salander in the original version of the Millennium trilogy: her strange upbringing. When Rapace was 5, she moved with her mother, stepfather, and half-sister to a remote village in Iceland called Solheimar that had been founded as a sort of home for the disabled."When the family moved to Solheimar, Rapace said, it was populated mostly by teenagers and adults with Down syndrome, and as a very young girl from another country, she found them menacing," Olsson explains. According to Rapace: I was afraid of them ... To me they were like big trolls. I was not allowed to be angry with them, but they were quite mean sometimes, violent and »

Another new character-based 'Prometheus' featurette has landed this time shining the spotlight on actor Logan Marshall-Green (below) and his role as Charlie Holloway in the Ridley Scott helmed sci-fi epic. You have to admit that you would expect the asset train to fast be running out of steam especially as the entire feature was shrouded in secrecy in the early stages yet now seems to be openly revealing possibly too much of what we can expect from the highly anticipated project. Logan is joined by fellow co-stars Michael Fassbender ('Eden Lake'), Charlize Theron ('Snow White and the Huntsman'), Noomi Rapace ('The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo'), Idris Elba ('The Losers'), Sean Harris ('Creep') and Rafe Spall ('Shaun of the Dead'). Check out the new featurette below if you must. »
