In the movie industry, most scripts bought and developed never get made, that’s just a depressing side of the business. There are endless great scripts, ideas and concepts that just never get made for so many reasons, the most common of which is money. Development hell isn’t just something that affects little known writers and directors, some of the most renowned names in the history of film have seen their projects defeated by the studios and sent to development hell for eternity, the most famous of which would be Stanley Kubrick’s Napoleon.
Even things such as Justice League, Jurassic Park and Superman – three materials that would be guaranteed commercial successes – can’t get made. Despite the committed fanbases, studios keep pushing them to one side. Jurassic Park 4 in particular was a strange one as the previous three Jurassic Park movie made a ton of money for everyone involved, »

The last time Alanis Morissette graced the big screen was back in 1999 for Kevin Smith’s Dogma. Now, some 14 years later she’s signed up to star as singer Marisa Damia in The Price Of Desire.
Based on the true story of modern architect pioneer, Eileen Grey, The Price of Desire has also bagged Shannyn Sossamon for the lead role. The film will chart the changes that her personal relationships had on the architecture world. While falling in love with her nemesis, Swiss/French designer Le Corbusier (Vincent Perez), Grey also maintained a relationship with Marisa Damia.
Mary McGuckian, who directed The Bridge Of San Luis Rey, will helm the piece, which will be produced by Eg Film Productions Limited, Lightstream Pictures and Saga Film.
Continuing the Kickstarter trend which has struck Hollywood, the filmmakers have created a campaign to fund restoration on Gray’s villa. Located in Roquebrune Cap Martin, »

Los Angeles -- James Van Der Beek will forever be known to most of us as Dawson Leery from the late-'90s hit television show "Dawson's Creek." But just last week, Van Der Beek made his Los Angeles stage debut in the play, "The Gift," at the Geffen Playhouse.
It would be a disservice to the extraordinarily well-written play to reveal too much, but Van Der Beek plays a conceptual artist who goes on a balmy vacation with his art critic wife. The two become close with a middle-aged couple who, after a certain event, insist on giving the young couple a gift of their choice. A year later, the course of both couple's lives have undeniably changed.
The 6-foot, blond hair and blue-eyed dreamboat, now age 35, played himself in ABC's recently-canceled comedy "Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23." He has starred in hit movies "Varsity Blues" and "The Rules Of Attraction »

The Day, 2011.
Directed by Douglas Aarniokoski.
Starring Shawn Ashmore, Shannyn Sossamon, Ashley Bell, Cory Hardrict, Dominic Monaghan and Brianna Barnes.
Synopsis:
A group of post-apocalyptic survivors struggle to stay alive in a land plagued by unbearable conditions and predatory gangs...
Along with their more carefully coiffed cousins the emo-vampire story, apocalyptic zombie movies have been everywhere for the past five or six years. While The Day, a depressingly turned out low-mid budget Canadian feature isn't exactly concerned with zombies - the menace is actually from ravenously hungry cannibals as it turns out - it may as well be.
Clearly looking to soak up something of the success of TV's The Waking Dead and countless recent games and movies, The Day plunges us into a world where food is short and tempers even shorter.
Following a bunch of beleaguered survivors - including Shawn Ashmore (X-Men, Frozen) Shannyn Sossamon (A Knight's Tale, »

Ah, The Canyons. Such a strange beast this film has become. You start with two acclaimed craftsman, writer/director Paul Schrader (Raging Bull, Affliction) and author Bret Easton Ellis (American Psycho, The Rules Of Attraction) and throw in a flailing actress (Lindsay Lohan) and a porn star actor (James Deen) in a contemporary drama described only as "Youth, glamor, sex and Los Angeles, circa 2012." It's almost the very definition of a hot mess. And, »
