Friday Box Office: Universal's Fast & Furious 6 is easily destroying Warner Bros.' Hangover Part III

16 hours ago | Upcoming-Movies.com | See recent Upcoming-Movies.com news »

Universal's sixth Fast & Furious film earned $38.2 million on Friday, and heads to around $110-$120 million over the weekend, easily doing way with Warner Bros. Pictures' third part in the Hangover franchise which made $14.5 million. The film will be the franchise's top opener to date, when comparing Fast Five's $86.1 million debut back on April 29th, 2011. In foreign territories, the Vin Diesel, Paul Walker and Dwayne Johnson over-the-top actioner topped all of its markets, pulling in $36 million. In the meantime, Hangover 3 which debuted early to try get a jump on the weekend, will end off with around $60 million from five days. This is higher than the first Hangover's $44.9 million weekend pull on June 5th, 2009, but way lower than The Hangover Part II's $85.8 opening, with less days to do business in. Paramount's Star Trek Into Darkness began its sophomore weekend run with $10.2 million, bringing the J.J. Abrams film's domestic cume to just under $120 million. »

Zoe Saldana and New Man Marco Perego—See First Pic of the Hot Couple

24 May 2013 2:11 PM, PDT | E! Online | See recent E! Online news »

Zoe Saldana and her new man Marco Perego make one hot couple! How do we know? The first picture of the Star Trek actress and her Italian artist beau has surface over a month after it was taken. In the pic, Saldana and Perego are caught driving away from the Chateau Marmont in West Hollywood after a date night out together in mid April. The 34-year-old beauty, dressed in a black coat, and her scruffy hunk, sporting a leather jacket, tried to avoid the photog flashes while leaving the Hollywood hot spot. As we previously reported, Saldana and Perego have known each other for a long time, but it was only recently that their romance began to heat up. "Zoe is superhappy right now," a »

Women in Hollywood, from Tough Rodriguez, Studio Chief Pascal, to 'Expendabelles' (Video)

24 May 2013 1:29 PM, PDT | Thompson on Hollywood | See recent Thompson on Hollywood news »

Sylvester Stallone has put out a call on Twitter, presumably with his latest iteration of "The Expendables" in mind: "A young Sigorney Weaver anywhere out there?" The misspelling of her name aside, Weaver became one of Hollywood's few female action stars because Ridley Scott cast her as androgynous astronaut Ripley in "Alien," and another director who likes strong women, James Cameron, encouraged her to kick ass in the sequel "Aliens," at which point he passed the baton to David Fincher, who continued the tradition in "Alien 3."  Stallone has plenty of tough action femmes to choose from now, from Gina Carano and Michelle Rodriguez, who memorably fight each other in "Fast & Furious 6" and Jennifer Garner ("Alias") to Cate Beckinsale ("Underworld"), Zoe Saldana ("Star Trek Into Darkness") and Gwyneth Paltrow ("Iron Man 3"). Rodriguez herself recently complained about the lack of female superheroes.  Check out the interview below with Sony chief Amy Pascal, »

Fashion Face-Off: Liberty Ross vs. Zoe Saldana in Balmain

24 May 2013 12:31 PM, PDT | E! Online | See recent E! Online news »

This is basically the ultimate face-off: Two identical looks in two different color combos worn by two equally gorgeous actresses.  We have to give credit to Zoe Saldana for stepping out in these bold Balmain separates first. Her choice of pink on pink is also far more daring than Liberty Ross' black and blue combo. But here's where we're torn: We think the darker colors on Liberty's outfit make her look more sophisticated. In comparison, Zoe's flirty fuschia ensemble looks more like a sexy Bollywood costume and less like a proper premiere look.  We're going to need you to settle this color conundrum. What's your say? »

Zoe Saldana's 'Funny' Online Relationship with Zachary Quinto and Chris Pine

24 May 2013 10:29 AM, PDT | National Ledger | See recent National Ledger news »

Zoe Saldana keeps a light-hearted online relationship going with Star Trek co-stars Zachary Quinto and Chris Pine and the sexy actress admits she has more male than female friends. The 34-year-old actress loved being part of the almost completely male cast of 'Star Trek Into Darkness' because she is more comfortable with men. She said: "It's a very accurate reflection of how I am in my own life. I have more male than female friends." Zoe also revealed she and co-stars Zachary Quinto and Chris Pine kept in touch between 2009's 'Star Trek' and its sequel through chain emails. She told Us Weekly magazine: "'We stay in touch through chain emails, we all joke and congratulate each other on personal and professional successes. We definitely make an effort to stay friends and get together for dinners." The 'Avatar' actress recently admitted she would be »

'Guardians Of The Galaxy': Zoe Saldana Is Curious About Gamora's Costume

24 May 2013 7:30 AM, PDT | MTV Splash Page | See recent MTV Splash Page news »

by Brett White

With Marvel's "Guardians of the Galaxy" set to start filming next month in London, actress Zoe Saldana is anxiously waiting to find out just what her character will look like in the film.

"I'm curious," she admitted to USA Today. "That's what I want I start to check out, too: Am I going to wear leather? Is it going to be spandex? How's my hair going to look?"

These are all valid concerns for the actress, considering that her role as Gamora will prove to be an incredibly physical one. Gamora is known as the deadliest woman in the galaxy, and Saldana has expressed interest in doing pretty much every stunt that she physically can do. But for the majority of time that Gamora's existed in the comics, she's worn outfits that don't really adhere to the laws of physics. Gamora's going to need a costume overhaul »

Martha Thomases Boldly Goes…

24 May 2013 5:00 AM, PDT | Comicmix.com | See recent Comicmix news »

Some random thoughts about Star Trek: Into Darkness.

I loved the original series when it started on NBC in 1966. It was around the time I started to read science fiction, so it felt incredibly reinforcing to see my newly beloved genre on a screen in my home. I thrilled to the smart plots, and didn’t care about the cheesy special effects. There weren’t any other kind on television at the time. I loved the banter among the leads, especially from my favorite character, “Bones” McCoy. I complained as loudly as a teenage girl can complain when it was cancelled. That said, I only watched it in syndication sporadically, and I never got into any of the sequels.

Not even the one with Scott Bakula, whom I adore.

So when J. J. Abrams was tasked with reinventing the franchise, I wasn’t too upset. If he took liberties, »

Zoë Saldaña Is Curious About Her Guardians Of The Galaxy Costume

24 May 2013 2:42 AM, PDT | ComicBookMovie.com | See recent ComicBookMovie news »

Touching on her apparent preference for sci-fi films, actress Zoë Saldaña says that it's not intentional, it's just that she's drawn to creativity and stories that are different from every day life. As the actress describes her criteria for role selection it's not a stretch to say she's a bit of a risk taker. "I do have an affinity for people, writers, directors and storytellers who are that creative and have an infinite imagination to imagine the unimaginable and boldly go where no one has gone before. I know it sounds cheesy to use that line as a reference but it's true — it takes a lot of talent and courage and freedom to conceive something that you have never seen, or take inspiration from everything around your life and build something that you've never actually physically seen with your eyes." Currently, Saldaña admits that she doesn't know a »

Nina Simone & Zoe Saldana - The Politics of Color

23 May 2013 1:27 PM, PDT | ShadowAndAct | See recent ShadowAndAct news »

Last night, my good friend sent me yet another article on Zoe Saldana. I have attempted to avoid this topic but here goes. Bottom line, people are not comfortable with Zoe Saldana playing Nina Simone because they believe that Zoe is "not ethnic enough", "doesn't have Nina's features", "doesn't have Nina's nose or lips". Ummm, have you seen Zoe's features? Basically, people are saying that Zoe is not black enough to play Nina Simone. How is that determined?  I grew up on the Jersey Shore. A darker skinned child in a family of extremely light skinned black women. Luckily, I had aunts and uncles who represented every color of the black rainbow. But, growing up on the Jersey Shore, you »

Heidi Klum Shows Off A Very Leggy Look At Cannes Film Festival

23 May 2013 1:02 PM, PDT | HollywoodLife | See recent HollywoodLife news »

Heidi is one hot mama! The multi-tasking model touched down at the film festival where she flaunted her long legs in a sexy gown.

Leave it to Heidi Klum to debut the sexiest look yet during the Cannes Film Festival. The 39-year-old looked gorgeous while flaunting her fit figure on the red carpet for the Nebraska premiere on May 22.

Heidi Klum Cannes Film Festival:

The star’s studded, asymmetrical Versace gown exuded an ’80s vibe. The frock featured one sleeve and hugged her frame like a glove, while the thigh-high slit put her endless legs on full display. She looked simply stunning!

Retro waves styled to one side polished off the premiere perfect look while her bright red manicure really popped against the neutral color of the dress. A nude lip and dramatic lashes added to Heidi’s luxe beauty routine.

More Guardians Of The Galaxy Rumors Hint At Another Villain

23 May 2013 11:04 AM, PDT | We Got This Covered | See recent We Got This Covered news »

Are you Marvel-ed out yet? I’m beginning to get there. With Marvel’s so-called ‘Phase Two’ slate coming up, everyone just can’t get enough of those casting and character rumors. Nothing as been as rumor-tastic as Guardians Of The Galaxy, which seems to greatly excite comic book fans and greatly confuse the rest of us. Now we have one more rumor to add to the growing pile, this one concerning the central villain of the film.

Word reaches us that the villain of the hour, to be played by Lee Pace, might be Ronan the Accuser. Ronan is a member of the Kree, one of the alien races that may have figured into The Avengers story. Ronan, true to his name, is a judge/jury/executioner sort of character, a villain to us but a hero to his people. In at least one iteration, he’s the son »

Watch Benedict Cumberbatch Take a Shower of Evil in Star Trek

23 May 2013 10:50 AM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »

As you may have heard, there are some people out there that are up in arms about the shot of Alice Eve in her underwear in Star Trek Into Darkness. It was a really quick shot, and I didn't think it was anything to make a fuss over. After all, it's no secret Kirk likes the ladies. No one made a fuss about the green girl in her underwear in the first movie. Even Zoe Saldana had more underwear time in the first film! I don't recall anyone complaining then. Oh well, what can you do. People pick and choose their battles.

J.J. Abrams showed up on Conan last night and talked about this issue a little and revealed that they cut out a gratuitous scene of Benedict Cumberbatch as the villain taking a shower of evil. You can watch that clip below.

New Photos of 'Blood Ties'; Guillaume Canet Reveals Mark Wahlberg Was Supposed To Be One Of The Main Brothers

23 May 2013 8:43 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »

Granted, "Blood Ties" is a bit of mess (and you can read why in our review from Cannes), but there is much to like about it too. Particularly the performances, with Clive Owen giving the best turn he's delivered in a quite a while, matched by Billy Crudup as his emotionally wounded brother and James Caan as their father who comes between the pair, eager to keep the family together. A sprawling two-and-a-half-hour saga set in the mid-1970s, the story chronicles ex-con Chris, recently out of another stint in the joint, who spirals back into a life of crime, while is brother Frank is torn between the affection he has for his brother and his duty to bring him to justice. It's a lot to tackle -- with an extended cast that features Mila KunisMatthias SchoenaertsZoe SaldanaMarion CotillardNoah Emmerich and Lili Taylor too -- and »

The most mysterious and interesting of Marvel Studios’ upcoming “Phase Two” slate is that of the risky and ambitious Guardians of the GalaxyMarvel Comics fans have a rough idea of who the new main characters will be, from official artwork released during last summer’s Iron Man 3 Comic-Con panel and pre-production concept art since, but what other space-faring characters and alien races of the cosmos will be included remains a mystery as James Gunn slowly casts his roster.
