Luke Evans Talks about The Crow Reboot

17 May 2013 3:25 PM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »

Earlier this month, it was reported that Fast and Furious 6 villain Luke Evans will be playing Eric Draven in The Crow remake set up over at Relativity Media. It seems like a lot of fans would have preferred to see Tom Hiddleston, who was up for the part at one point,  in the role. Of course, fans of the original film don't want to see The Crow remade at all. Unfortunately, there's nothing we can do to stop it. The only way that you can drive this point home to Hollywood is to not see the movie when it's released. Only if it doesn't succeed will they admit to making a mistake, because if it makes money they're going to keep doing it.

During a recent interview with Empire, Evans is asked about the reboot, and this is what he had to say...

He doesn't reveal much, but he does »

Exclusive: Luke Evans On The Crow Reboot

16 May 2013 5:09 PM, PDT | EmpireOnline | See recent EmpireOnline news »

Luke Evans is now set to star in the upcoming remake of The Crow. Bradley Cooper was once attached, Tom Hiddleston was rumoured, even James McAvoy was considered, but it's official: Evans will don Draven's corpse paint. Speaking to Evans at the Fast & Furious 6 junket recently, Empire asked him about it, and here's what he had to say.  brightcove.createExperiences();Though he doesn't reveal too much about the angle the reboot will take - that's a question for director F. Javier Gutierrez - it's interesting to see how positive and confident Evans is about challenging the first adaptation from way back in 1994, brought to us by director Alex Proyas and star Brandon Lee. This new Crow was kickstarted by Stephen Norrington in 2009, with the Blade director planning to shoot his own screenplay, which would have taken place in Detroit and the American Southwest. Nick Cave wrote a draft in 2010, before »

10 Hottest Movie Villains Ever

16 May 2013 7:49 AM, PDT | The Backlot | See recent The Backlot news »

Congrats to Benedict Cumberbatch, who plays Commander John Harrison in today’s new release Star Trek Into Darkness, for waking me out of cryosleep and forcing me to remember how hot a good movie villain can be. Star Trek Into Darkness is shaping up to be a killer sequel to J.J. Abrams‘ unbeatable 2009 original, and in honor of Cumberbatch’s sinister, dead sexy allure, we’re counting up the 10 hottest villains ever!

10. Tom Hiddleston in Thor

Tom Hiddleston is a jovial and cool-seeming guy in interviews, but in Thor, the thespian’s unflinching intensity and sheer weirdness make for an unusual, cartoonish, but sexy villain. If Loki is a trickster, the greatest trick he ever pulled was challenging Chris Hemsworth’s sexiness and succeeding.

9. Christian Slater in Heathers

Nothing makes a villain hotter than sardonic one-liners, and Christian Slater spouted them without hesitation as J.D. »

Tilda Swinton And Tom Hiddleston Are Vampires In Heat In Only Lovers Left Alive Clips

15 May 2013 1:51 PM, PDT | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »

Sometimes a movie so fantastically bizarre comes together that it sounds like it's some sort of brilliant Madlib. That's how I lovingly think of Only Lovers Left Alive, a romantic drama written and directed by art house auteur Jim Jarmusch that stars Tom Hiddleston and Tilda Swinton as vampire lovers. It seems utterly outlandish, and yet oddly perfect. In the film, Hiddleston plays a vampire/rock musician called Adam. Swinton is his Eve, literally.her name is Eve. And together these two live in undead bliss.until Eve's spunky little sister Ava (played by Stoker's Mia Wasikowska) turns up. Only Lovers Left Alive is poised to make its world premiere at the Cannes Film Festival on May 25th. And in anticipation of its debut, io9 has uncovered a pair of clips that give us our first look at these lovers in action. Up top is a clip that shows »

Watch: The One Vampire Movie We Need to See Is Jim Jarmusch's 'Only Lovers Left Alive'

15 May 2013 1:30 PM, PDT | Movies.com | See recent Movies.com news »

Don't expect the usual brand of bloodsuckers in Jim Jarmusch's upcoming vampire film Only Lovers Left Alive. The director has already revealed that there won't be the usual neck biting and cheesy mirror tricks we're normally presented with in vamp films. Tom Hiddleston plays Adam, a depressed, underground musician (described as a moody "Hamlet-like" character) who reunites with his lover through the centuries, Eve (Tilda Swinton). They find their passionate homecoming interrupted by Eve's wild sister, Ava (Mia Wasikowska). John Hurt and Anton Yelchin also star in the Cannes contender, which premieres on May 25. In two new clips from The Playlist, we see sparks flying between the couple and a bit of Ava's childlike personality rearing its head...

The iconoclastic indie director heads to Cannes with his Tilda Swinton and Tom Hiddleston starring vampire picture Only Lovers Left Alive and while plot information remains relatively scarce a pair of clips from the film have turned up over at The Playlist.

Watch: First 2 Clips From Jim Jarmusch's Cannes Entry 'Only Lovers Left Alive' With Tilda Swinton & Tom Hiddleston

14 May 2013 5:03 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »

When Jim Jarmusch's "Only Lovers Left Alive" was missing from the initial lineup announcement for the Cannes Film Festival, we were a bit bummed out, but about a week later, it was slotted as a late addition to the Competition lineup, adding another great title to an already stacked slate. There hasn't been much thus far from the movie itself, with the excitement resting solely on the cast (Tilda Swinton, John Hurt, Mia Wasikowska, Anton YelchinTom Hiddleston) and the fact that it's about vampires. But now, two clips from the movie have landed providing the first look at 'Lovers,' but it remains intriguingly enigmatic. The movie follows Adam (Hiddleston), an underground musician, deeply depressed by the direction of human activities, who reunites with his centuries long lover Eve (Swinton), but finds their relationship interrupted by her wild sister, Ava (Wasikowska). So yeah, sounds pretty great and in these two clips, »

Cannes and Hollywood: a feisty marriage

14 May 2013 2:30 AM, PDT | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »

Hollywood and the world's most prestigious film festival, Cannes, have conducted an on-off romance down the years – and now they're closer than ever. But have they got too cosy? As the Croisette opens for business, Xan Brooks investigates

In among the ligging and rigging of last year's Cannes film festival, visitors may have spotted James Toback and Alec Baldwin trudging wearily back and forth along the Croisette. The director and star, it now transpires, were in town to shoot a very meta documentary – a film about their efforts to actually make a film. For a 10-day spell they interviewed everyone from Ryan Gosling to Martin Scorsese, Nicole Kidman to Roman Polanski. Along the way they took the temperature of a festival perched at the intersection between art and commerce. The documentary's title, Seduced and Abandoned, alludes to Baldwin's description of the film industry as "the world's worst girlfriend". But it »

Cannes film festival to open with Great Gatsby glamour

nBaz Luhrman's 1920s extravaganza to open 66th festival and cement Surrey girl Carey Mulligan's arrival in Hollywood A-list

Many people might think The Great Gatsby has already had a premiere with reviews from American screenings widely available. But for its British star, Carey Mulligan, the red carpet Cannes screening of Baz Luhrmann's 3D extravaganza on Wednesday evening will secure her position among the top flight of international talent.

The film will officially open the annual event in the south of France, regarded as the leading festival in the cinema industry's calendar. Mulligan is expected to attend alongside Lurhrman and her co-star, Leonardo DiCaprio, and will be the glamorous focus of the most high-profile function of the fortnight.

The actor from Surrey, who is married to Marcus Mumford of the award-winning band Mumford and Sons, is to have a second moment of glory later in the festival when she »

Justice League: 5 Great Actors Who Could Pull Off The Dark Knight

9 May 2013 2:29 AM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »

It’s pretty much written in stone that a Justice League movie will be released in the next few years as DC rushes to get its answer to The Avengers out as soon as possible. Of course, the most interesting obstacle to watch the filmmakers overcome is how to meld the already existing world established in Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight Trilogy with whatever direction they want to go with The Justice League.

With Christian Bale in the role, Batman has taken the superhero genre to new heights in recent years, though with Bale passing on The Justice League, the role will have to be recast but unfortunately, few actors seem capable of fulfilling all the requirements.

Whichever actor dons the cape must be able to portray Bruce Wayne the tortured individual, Bruce Wayne the charismatic playboy, and of course be intimidating enough to pull off the Caped Crusader. Unfortunately, »

Luke Evans discusses The Crow remake

7 May 2013 11:04 PM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »

Earlier this week Relativity Media finally found its leading man for the long-gestating remake of The Crow when Luke Evans (Immortals, Fast & Furious 6) was announced as having secured the role of Eric Draven in the latest retelling of comic book creator James O'Barr's supernatural revenge tale.

Evans secured the role ahead of rumoured candidates such as James McAvoy (X-Men: Days of Future Past), Tom Hiddleston (The Avengers) and Alexander Skarsgard (True Blood), and the Welsh actor has wasted little time in discussing the forthcoming remake, which sees him stepping into the shoes of Brandon Lee, whose life was tragically cut short during the making of the original.

"[The Crow] was a very poignant film from my childhood, which I remember vividly," Evans tells ComingSoon. "The soundtrack, also. It was such a solid performance that Brandon Lee gave. It was a very tragic end for somebody that probably would have had a very promising career. »

James Franco Boards Wenders’ ‘Everything Will Be Fine’

7 May 2013 8:22 AM, PDT | Variety - Film News | See recent Variety - Film News news »

London — James Franco has boarded Wim Wenders’ 3D pic “Everything Will Be Fine.”

Franco will play Tomas, a writer who accidentally causes the death of a child and spends the next 12 years  examining the effect of the tragedy on his life and that of Kate, the child’s mother. Wenders said the film was “a story of guilt and forgiveness, and of accepting things you cannot change anymore.”

Gian-Piero Ringel will produce through his and Wenders’ Neue Road Movies. Production will begin in Montreal on Aug. 15. The screenplay is by Norwegian writer Bjorn-Olaf Johannessen.

HanWay Films reps the film in international markets, and will introduce it to buyers at Cannes.

Franco most recently starred in Harmony Korine’s “Spring Breakers” and Sam Raimi’s “Oz the Great and Powerful.” He is now filming “True Story” opposite Jonah Hill for 20th Century Fox.

Wenders’ previous film, “Pina,” grossed over $30 million worldwide. »

Ewan McGregor in 'Jane Got a Gun': A 'Star Wars' Reunion for the Actor and Natalie Portman

7 May 2013 6:59 AM, PDT | Moviefone | See recent Moviefone news »

Ewan McGregor might be the latest (and hopefully last) actor to join his "Star Wars" co-star Natalie Portman in "Jane Got a Gun." McGregor, who appeared as Obi-Wan Kenobi in the three "Star Wars" prequels, is poised to take over the role of the lead villain in the Western, after Jude Law left and Bradley Cooper's schedule didn't work out. As reported last week, the short list of actors that were being considered for the lead baddie were "Thor" star Tom Hiddleston, Jake Gyllenhaal, Tobey Maguire, and Joseph Gordon-Levitt -- McGregor's name was nowhere to be found. Perhaps that leak was a psych-out; there's no doubt that McGregor is leading man (or villain) material. So far, "Jane Got a Gun" has been more like a game of musical chairs than the straightforward production that its star and producer Natalie Portman had probably hoped for. Director Lynne Ramsay left the »
