Release Dates Set For Jackie Robinson Biopic 42 And The Lego Movie
24 April 2012 12:34 PM, PDT | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »
2012 hasn't even hit the halfway point, and already Warner Bros. is looking ahead to 2014, laying out dates for the Jackie Robinson Biopic 42 and the presently untitled Lego movie. THR reveals the release of the former is being timed with Major League Baseball's Jackie Robinson Day, meaning writer-director Brian Helgeland's 42 will make it's debut on April 12, 2013, to better commemorate the 66th anniversary of Robinson's first game as a Brooklyn Dodger. With its protagonist widely heralded as the man who broke professional baseball's color barrier, 42 will focus on Robinson's struggles as the first black Major Leaguer, as well as his bond with Dodgers' general manager and forward thinker Branch Rickey, who was instrumental in getting him on the team. Chadwick Boseman (Persons Unknown) will portray Robinson, while Harrison Ford has signed on to play Rickey. A Knight's Tale director Brian Helgeland directs. Production is slated to begin on the project May »

Susan Dormady Eisenberg: How James Purefoy Will Heat Up the Hamptons When Revenge Finally Returns
6 April 2012 6:24 AM, PDT | Aol TV. | See recent Aol TV. news »
ABC executives have been mostly mum about the late-season arrival of James Purefoy, the hunky British actor who joins the cast of Revenge as the show returns from hiatus on April 18.
It was announced in January that Purefoy would portray Dominik Wright, the mysterious old flame of the show's cunning matriarch, Victoria Grayson (Madeleine Stowe), but though producer Mike Kelley has called Dominik "an artist," that's about all we know about him. Purefoy has not yet given interviews about his role -- as far as I know -- possibly because he's swamped. He's also preparing to play a serial killer opposite Kevin Bacon in a high-profile Fox pilot, scheduled for the 2012-2013 season. This means that Dominik's wooing of La Grayson may be short and sweet -- or spicy and not so sweet -- spanning just a few episodes. After all, the show's title and theme affect each character's motives, »

'Full Metal Jousting': The Extreme Sport Of Badasses Of Yore
4 April 2012 11:22 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
Just when you thought you'd seen it all, along comes a reality show about jousting. Yes, jousting. Thanks to "Full Metal Jousting," The preferred extreme sport of badasses of yore is alive and well. And if international jousting champion (and proud Canadian!) Shane Adams has anything to do with it, jousting will soon be restored to its former glory as a primetime draw.
Adams has longed to be a real jouster (not just the dinner-show variety) since he was a wee boy growing up on a horse farm in Acton, Ontario. After doing the dinner show circuit for a spell, he decided to pursue something a little more authentic. "I thought I was living my childhood dream, but I really wasn't. I wasn't a knight in shining armor. Instead I was a knight in shining polyester and tinsel," Adams recalls, laughing. He launched his own traveling medieval show 'Knights of Valour. »

Legendary Pictures to tell a dragon-themed tale with Slayer
21 March 2012 2:33 AM, PDT | JoBlo.com | See recent JoBlo news »
Brian Helgeland has been in the screenwriting business for a while, having written some great movies (L.A. Confidential, A Knight's Tale, Man On Fire) and some not so great movies (The Order, Robin Hood). And now his son Martin has entered the writing game, with a spec script called Slayer that has been picked up by Legendary Pictures. In a curious case of art reflecting life (i.e. the son taking up the father's mantle), Slayer "is described as a modern-day story »

Popcorn Previews Can Take the Mystery Out of Choosing the Right Movie
1 March 2012 10:17 AM, PST | Moviefone | See recent Moviefone news »
I am absolutely thrilled to be publishing Popcorn Previews on Huffington Post. I hope my previews will become a go-to source for finding the right movies... the ones that match your taste and mood. If you love movies but haven't heard of me, that's not surprising. But I've got a perfectly plausible alibi. I was a theater major in college with a back-up major in advertising. In New York, I landed my first job in advertising. But theater (and film) was an old flame that wouldn't die, and I continued studies in this area. As a writer in advertising, I always had a knack for making complicated information understandable and accessible. So explaining movies to friends was no big leap. It's just that I approach it from my own perspective. I feel that I "preview" movies instead of reviewing them. When I was growing up, we used to refer to trailers as previews. »
