Guess Who

Bradley Cooper's curls on the set of David O. Russell's untitled drama about the Abscam sting operation that took place on Hauppauge, Long Island in the late 1970s and early 1980s; or, Bradley Cooper as:
1. Disco Stu.
2. Sean Penn in "Carlito's Way."
3. Justin Timberlake during the N*Sync era.
4. Barbra Streisand.
5. Prince.
Regardless, [mouth agape].
In Russell's new film, which was previously titled "American Bullsh-t," Cooper plays Jimmy Doyle, a federal agent who helped bring down a bunch of corrupt politicians and officials with the help of a con man (played in the film by Christian Bale). Jennifer Lawrence co-stars as Bale's wife. (Amy Adams plays Bale's mistress.)
The film is set for release in the fourth quarter of 2013, but no date has been set yet. Enjoy more pics of Cooper's righteous 'do -- as well as Jennifer Lawrence as Lorraine Bracco as Karen Hill? -- below.

Watch How Music Is Composed for Movie Trailers
19 March 2013 3:00 PM, PDT | Movies.com | See recent Movies.com news »
We've seen film fans recut various movie trailers set to different music — like the one we wrote about from mash-up artist ChugsTheMonkey who set Stanley Kubrick's 2001 to music fit for an action-packed blockbuster. The score for a movie trailer can enhance the tone of a film — and sometimes it can feel totally wrong — but who are the people that make the music, and how do they feel about it all? Yoav Goren is a composer and the co-owner of a music production company called Immediate Music. His first gig was composing the score for Brian De Palma's Carlito's Way trailer. Before that he was a musician, playing keyboards for several bands. This 12-minute clip from the SoundWorks Collection, which we spotted on Slash Film, reveals the...

Video Interview: Luis Guzmán on Career, 'The Last Stand' & More
18 January 2013 9:02 AM, PST | firstshowing.net | See recent FirstShowing.net news »
Boogie Nights. Carlito's Way. Traffic. Out of Sight. These are a small amount of the over 100 credits that acclaimed character actor Luis Guzmán has to his name. His newest movie, The Last Stand, is an action film directed by Korean director Kim Jee-woon that stars Arnold Schwarzenegger, Johnny Knoxville, Jaimie Alexander, and Rodrigo Santoro as a group of small town folks tasked with stopping an infamous cartel leader trying to get to the Mexican border by crossing through their town (trailer here). I had a chance to speak with Mr. Guzmán about his career, his legacy, Schwarzenegger's comeback, and more. Check it out! Being herded through an interview with strict time constraints can be difficult, so please forgive the camera placement if it isn't 100% perfect. The interview runs about six minutes and touches on Guzmán's work on The Last Stand, if he ever rewatches his old films while channel »

Twenty years after Carlito's Way, Al Pacino and Brian De Palma are set to team up for a biopic of the disgraced college football coach
It's been many years since Scarface and Carlito's Way saw Al Pacino and Brian De Palma work together, and indeed it has been quite some time since either of them have been operating at the level they did in their prime. That said, news of them teaming up once more is quite exciting. It has been 30 years since Scarface was released and 20 years since the release of Carlito's Way, and the project to bring them together after such a period of time is a biopic of Joe Paterno.
The name might not mean a great deal to those on this side of the Atlantic who don't follow American sports, but Paterno was for a significant period of time a legend in college football, »

Pacino and De Palma Tackle Paterno, The Rock's 'Hercules' Dated and 'Gremlins' Rebooted
17 January 2013 7:30 AM, PST | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »
1.) We've already seen how much Ashton Kutcher looks like Steve Jobs in the upcoming biopic jOBS, which will close the Sundance Film Festival on January 26. Now, USA Today gives us our first look at Josh Gad as Jobs' Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak. I wouldn't quite say the resemblance is uncanny, but a successful biopic has never been purely dependent on casting lookalikes. Open Road Films has already picked up the film for an April release. 2.) After watching recent '80s remakes like Fright Night, Conan the Barbarian and Red Dawn set the box-office on fire (no, not really), Warner Bros. has decided now is the time to reboot Gremlins. The studio would have to work out a deal with Steven Spielberg's Amblin Entertainment first, and negotiations have fallen through several times over the years, but a source seems to think there's a decent chance we could see Gizmo and »

Duo set to work in tandem for a third time after De Palma reportedly signs up for film about late American football coach
Brian De Palma and Al Pacino are to reunite for a biopic about Pennsylvania State University's controversial former American football coach, Joe Paterno, who was forced to retire after a sexual abuse scandal took place on his watch.
Pacino was first reported to be in talks to play Paterno in September last year. Now Deadline reports that De Palma has agreed to take on directing duties for the drama, which is titled Happy Valley. The pair last worked together on the gangster tale Carlito's Way in 1993, and before that on 1983's iconic mob drama Scarface.
Paterno, who was not involved in any criminal activity, left his job in 2011, after 45 years, when his former defensive co-ordinator Jerry Sandusky was accused – and later convicted – of 45 counts of sexually abusing »

Scarface Director and Al Pacino Re-Team for Happy Valley Penn State Scandal Film
17 January 2013 2:59 AM, PST | WorstPreviews.com | See recent Worst Previews news »
Al Pacino and director Brian De Palma, who worked together on "Scarface" and "Carlito's Way," are re-teaming for "Happy Valley," a new movie about the controversial Penn State football coach Joe Paterno. The film will be based on Joe Posnanski's biography "Paterno," which is a NY Times best-seller. Pacino will play the winningest coach in college football history. But when it came out that his former defense coordinator Jerry Sandusky is a pedophile and Paterno didn't properly report the scandal, the coach was fired. He died shortly after of cancer. Ncaa reacted by removing Paterno's wins going back to the cover-up. Sandusky was found guilty on 45 counts of sexual abuse against young boys and will spend the rest of his life in prison. Producers are currently in talks with David McKenna (American History X, Blow) to write the script. »

Al Pacino and director Brian De Palma will reunite for Happy Valley, a film focusing on Penn State's football coach Joe Paterno, reports The Hollywood Reporter. The duo worked together on the legendary 1983 crime drama Scarface, and Carlito's Way ten years later in 1993. Edward R. Pressman announced on Wednesday that he's optioned the pic based on the best seller by Joe Posnanski. Joseph Vincent "Joe" Paterno who was also referred to as "JoePa," coached the Penn State Nittany Lions from 1966 until 2011 when he was fired by the university after a child sex abuse scandal which involved his former assistant coach Joe Sandusky. FBI director Louis Freeh conducted an investigation which, in July last year, found that PAterno concealed facts relating to Sandusky's sexual abuse of young boys. »

Scarface Duo Al Pacino and Brian de Palma Reunite for Happy Valley
16 January 2013 4:45 PM, PST | MovieWeb | See recent MovieWeb news »
Scarface director Brian De Palma is re-teaming with star Al Pacino for Happy Valley, a biopic based on the life of Penn State football coach Joe Paterno.
We reported in September that Al Pacino is attached to star in the project, which is based on Joe Posnanski's biography Paterno. The book will look into the coach's life before joining Penn State in 1966, and follow JoePa all the way to the 2011 sex scandal that rocked all of college sports. Joe Paterno was fired after 46 years on the job, for his role in trying to cover up the deviant activities of his defensive coordinator, Jerry Sandusky, who assaulted young boys for decades. Joe Paterno died in January 2012 at the age of 85.
David McKenna (American History X) is currently in talks to write the screenplay adaptation, with Edward R. Pressman producing. It isn't known when shooting may begin at this time.

Al Pacino Reteaming with 'Scarface' Director for Joe Paterno Biopic
16 January 2013 4:44 PM, PST | firstshowing.net | See recent FirstShowing.net news »
Looks like the iconic Scarface star Al Pacino is about to say hello to his...old friend. Deadline reports that Brian De Palma, who directed Pacino in both Scarface and Carlito's Way, has signed on to helm Happy Valley, the upcoming biopic of Penn State football coach Joe Paterno. Based on Joe Pasnanski's NY Times bestselling book, the film will presumably follow Paterno's career building the Penn State football program into a powerhouse from the ground up in the 1980s and also cover his fall from grace and death that closely followed the horrific Jerry Sandusky sex scandal which rocked the nation a couple of years ago. One could make the case that De Palma hasn't directed anything good since the first Mission: Impossible back in 1996, so perhaps reteaming with the star of two of his most popular movies is exactly the shot in the arm that the director needs. »

Pressman To Produce De Palma Biopic Starring Pacino as Paterno
16 January 2013 4:43 PM, PST | Thompson on Hollywood | See recent Thompson on Hollywood news »
Producer Edward R. Pressman ("Wall Street") has optioned feature film rights to New York Times best seller "Paterno" by sports journalist Joe Posnanski. Ex-caa partner-turned-manager Rick Nicita will also produce the biopic to star his client Al Pacino as Penn State football coach Joe Paterno. And with Brian De Palma ("Scarface," "Carlito’s Way") attached to direct "Happy Valley," the team behind "Carlito's Way" and "Scarface" is together again. The producers are in talks with writer David McKenna ("American History X") to adapt for the screen. We spoke to De Palma about his latest film, "Passion," starring Rachel McAdams and Noomi Rapace, which debuted in Venice and played the Toronto and New York film festivals. “I can’t think of a better duo to tell this story of a complex, intensely righteous man who was brought down by his own tragic flaw," says »
