Rob Lowe gets political in Knife Fight.
Rob Lowe (TV’s Parks and Recreation), Richard Schiff (Seven) and Jamie Chung (The Hangover Part II) star in the 2012 political thriller film Knife Fight.
Paul Turner (Lowe) is a savvy strategist sharply maneuvering politicians out of scandal and into public office. With the help of a bright young assistant (Chung) and his team, Turner spins every news cycle on behalf of his clients, which include a philandering Kentucky governor (Eric McCormack, TV’s Will & Grace) and a blackmailed California senator and an idealistic doctor turned gubernatorial candidate (Carrie-Anne Moss, Memento, The Matrix series). When the ugly side of Turner’s work begins to haunt him, he learns that even in the bloodiest of battles, sometimes you have to fight clean.

20,000 Leagues Under The Sea Remake Stalled Until 2014
20 May 2013 8:53 PM, PDT | We Got This Covered | See recent We Got This Covered news »
Uh oh – it looks like David Fincher’s 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea remake is dead in the water for now according to Disney. The film’s production, which was supposed to start shooting in Sydney, Australia next month after a very hefty offer from the Government down under, has been pushed all the way back to 2014 – much to the dismay of an extremely eager Australia.
With Captain David Fincher (The Social Network/Fight Club) reuniting with his first-mate scribe Andrew Kevin Walker (Se7en) to take a crack at Disney’s epic underwater adventure, it’s a shame that casting troubles are to blame for the delay in production. Although there’s been talk hinting Channing Tatum could take the lead as Ned Land, there was also a rumor Fincher wanted Brad Pitt for the exact same role. While Tatum still hasn’t openly declined playing Land, the latter has, and »

Disney Delays ’20,000 Leagues Under The Sea’ Remake Until 2014
20 May 2013 7:13 PM, PDT | ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news »
The saga of director David Fincher’s delayed remake of 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea is a long and painful one. There have been many incarnations of Jules Verne’s classic 1870 novel, both on film and television, but it’s the 1954 Disney production – the only science-fiction film produced by Walt Disney himself – which to date remains the most beloved and definitive version of the story.
Girl With The Dragon Tattoo director Fincher has been chasing this project for a long time. It was finally set to go into production a few months ago with Fincher’s Se7en screenwriter Andrew Kevin Walker to rewriting a script by Side Effects scribe Scott Z. Burns. Now the project has reportedly been put on hold once again, with production due to begin in early 2014.
The delay was reported by the Sydney ...

Movie Cliché Du Jour: Bad Guys Getting Caught on Purpose
20 May 2013 7:00 AM, PDT | NextMovie | See recent NextMovie news »
Warning: Spoilers Running Free.
Generally speaking, bad guys are bad guys because they want to do bad things and get away with them, so if you see one get caught in the middle of a movie it usually means they've got an ace up their sleeve. Lately we've been seeing this trend of the bad guy getting caught on purpose (capture, interrogation, threat, destruction, escape) in big tentpole blockbusters, and either every copy of Final Draft has a glitch that automatically pastes that into a script … or folks are getting lazy.
Seeing as how it's used once again in "Star Trek Into Darkness," let's cite five recent examples of this cliché in the hopes that we can declare a moratorium on it ... at least until it counts as nostalgia.

Costume Designer Michael Kaplan Confirmed for Star Wars VII
19 May 2013 10:16 AM, PDT | Clothes on Film | See recent Clothes on Film news »
Securing perhaps the biggest costume job going at the moment, Michael Kaplan has officially been chosen as costume designer for Star Wars Episode VII. It was on his IMDb page for a short while (later removed), but now the appointment has been corroborated by the man himself. “I am very excited to be working on Star Wars” Kaplan confirms to Clothes on Film “I’m so looking forward to collaborating, once again, with Jj.”
Kaplan is now director J.J. Abrams’ regular costume designer having worked with him on Mission Impossible – Ghost Protocol, Star Trek and Star Trek Into Darkness. Evidently after two terms with Abrams on Star Trek, Kaplan has the sci-fi chops necessary to tackle arguably a denser franchise with even greater fan expectation. Get it right and he could have an Oscar to put alongside his BAFTA statuette and Costume Designers Guild awards, get it wrong and there will be nowhere to hide, »

Costume Designer Michael Kaplan on Star Trek Into Darkness
16 May 2013 10:16 PM, PDT | Clothes on Film | See recent Clothes on Film news »
Michael Kaplan’s career is one film after another of “wow, he did that?” cinema: Blade Runner, Flashdance, Seven, Fight Club, Burlesque, plus dozens more. Kaplan’s connection to Star Trek began as costume designer on J.J. Abrams’ reboot in 2009, and now he is back for the sequel. Despite admitting he was no expert in the world of Star Trek before signing on, his work on both movies has been praised; particularly the Enterprise crew uniforms (that reoccurring Starfleet pattern is a classy touch).
Here chatting exclusively to Clothes on Film, Michael Kaplan explains his approach to costuming Star Trek Into Darkness (out everywhere this week).

Seitz: Snap Judgments on Fox’s New Shows
14 May 2013 9:35 AM, PDT | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »
Vulture's TV critic, Matt Zoller Seitz, will be watching and evaluating the early clips and concepts of each of the new shows unveiled at this year's upfronts. Here are his thoughts on Fox's shows — you can watch trailers for the dramas here and the comedies here. Almost Human The gist: In a dystopian future, a burned-out hotshot cop named Kennex (Karl Urban, looking and sounding kinda like Brad Pitt in Se7en) is paired with a “synthetic” partner named Dorian (Michael Ealy). Although the buddy cop premise screams Alien Nation, promo materials evoke a combination of dark sci-fi pictures: Robocop and Minority Report especially. And the fact that the robot is super-chill and the human impetuous suggests a Kirk-Spock dynamic. “I can’t say that I was born,” Dorian tells Kennex, “but I was made to feel, as much as you.”Gut reaction: Sci-fi geeks will be all over this in »

Clip joint: the five best police chiefs on film
8 May 2013 5:59 AM, PDT | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »
They can be a help or a hindrance, but they're always at their best when shouty and officious. Here's some of the best examples of movie police chiefs
This week's Clip joint is my art director and designer Mark Evans. Follow him on Twitter here, and take a look at the 'zine he recently put together on the subject of police chiefs.
This is based on my love of the officious, aggressive and over-the-top police chief in movies. The one-liners, the put-downs and their very immoderate nature have always endeared me to this hilarious and iconic film character.
We start with the perfect, cliché-ridden sequel that precisely encapsulates this type of character, Inspector Todd from Beverly Hills Cop 2.

10 Iconic Classical Songs You Only Know Because Of The Movies
5 May 2013 9:43 AM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
Classical music is, in an extremely simply attempt to decribe a genre of music, exactly what it says on the tin. Music that has stood the test of time and (especially in today’s age of instant and worldwide community, communication and critique) transcended audiences to be recognised as some of the finest that man has produced. Works that hundreds of years later are still heard and enjoyed by millions of people shows the power and passion that can come from likes of Mozart and Bach.
To me, a fascinating experience that we get to enjoy is when one of our still relatively young art forms, the moving image, meets the timeless classical works in new and unexpected ways. What comes from this is a surprisingly high recognition of classical music without actually engaging with the medium directly. There are some works that we have almost literally all heard before »

Gwyneth Paltrow: loved, loathed, but never ignored | profile
5 May 2013 3:27 AM, PDT | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »
The star of the Iron Man movies, health guru and red-carpet provocateur, provokes wildly differing reactions. Who is she really, this American in London?
Last week, the entertainment website Vulture posted a handy six-step guide on how not to hate Gwyneth Paltrow.
Paltrow, the 40-year-old, peachy-skinned actress who, in recent years, has attracted more column inches for munching quinoa than for actually appearing in films, is gracing the big screen again in Iron Man 3, reprising her role as the hero's love interest, Pepper Potts. Reviews suggest her performance – in what is admittedly a limited part – is extremely good. Hence the Vulture guide.
"It is normal to dislike Gwyneth Paltrow these days, it's a consensus viewpoint, basically," the writers state. "In the interest of a positive Iron Man 3 experience, Vulture has devised a six-point plan to help you put aside your Gwyneth Paltrow distaste for the length [130 minutes] of the film. »

Look: Kevin Spacey Is Quite Possibly The Scariest Photobomber Ever
1 May 2013 8:38 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
Kevin Spacey is known for frequently playing villainous roles ("Swimming With Sharks," "Seven," "House of Cards") and is equally known for being excellent at it. It should come as no surprise then that when the actor decides to take on a new role, that of the photobomber, he makes for the scariest and best photobomber of them all.
Spacey, 53, attended the Vanity Fair-Bloomberg post-White House Correspondents' Dinner party last weekend and was unintentionally caught in the background as Conan O'Brien and Matthew Perry smiled for the cameras. Or was he ... ? Seems like the multiple Oscar-winner caught the flash at just the right moment, and acted accordingly.
Touché, Mr. Spacey.
Look:
Spacey was also an integral part of the main event as he appeared in a parody video of "House of Cards" as his character, Rep. Frank Underwood, which kicked off the correspondents' dinner.
Apparently, photobombing has since become somewhat of »

Interview: John C. McGinley Channels Red Barber in ‘42’
30 April 2013 5:45 AM, PDT | HollywoodChicago.com | See recent HollywoodChicago.com news »
Chicago – John C. McGinley will probably always be known for the classic TV character Dr. Perry Cox on the long-running “Scrubs.” But through his character actor career, he has taken on a variety of roles, including the portrayal of Red Barber, the play-by-play man for the Brooklyn Dodgers in the recent film “42.”
McGinley plays an integral part in that Jackie Robinson story, as Red Barber was the man announcing the history as it happened in 1947, the year that Robinson broke the color line in baseball. McGinley took meticulous care in recreating “The Ol’ Redhead” (as Barber was nicknamed), inflecting the character with a perfect imitation of the announcer’s unique style, which was both nostalgic and in the present context of the Robinson story.
