Losties Rejoice as Damon Lindelof Returns to TV

1 hour ago | ScifiMafia | See recent ScifiMafia news »

Most fans of Lost have loved both of the movies that Lost co-showrunner Damon Lindelof has been involved with – Cowboys and Aliens and Star Trek – and are waiting with bated breath for Prometheus this weekend and the Star Trek sequel next May, as well as the mysterious 1952 about which we know basically nothing. But what we’d Really love is to be able to watch new work from him on a weekly basis.

Happily, those dreams will reportedly be coming true. Deadline is reporting that Lindelof is finalizing a three-year overall deal with Warner Bros. TV, where Lost co-creator and frequent collaborator J.J. Abrams produces his TV series (Fringe, Person of Interest). Better still, Lindelof confirmed that he is planning on writing, not just producing: “(A)t this point I still look at myself as a writer … This (deal) is about me creating my next show.”

Second Opinion - Prometheus (2012)

3 hours ago | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »

Prometheus, 2012.

Directed by Ridley Scott.

Starring Noomi Rapace, Michael Fassbender, Charlize Theron, Idris Elba, Guy Pearce, Logan Marshall-Green, Sean Harris and Rafe Spall.

Synopsis:

During their search for clues to the origins of mankind, a team of explorers discover a threat that could lead to humanity's extinction.

2012 appears to the year of ‘hyped’ movies. What began with The Avengers last month will go on to The Amazing Spider-Man and end with the conclusion of Christopher Nolan’s Batman series, The Dark Knight Rises. But before those two, we have Ridley Scott’s return to the genre he perfected in his ‘prequel-but-not-a-prequel-but-sort-of-is’ to Alien, Prometheus. Avengers met the hype it created and I imagine Dark Knight Rises will too, but how does Prometheus fare?

Before we talk about the film itself, let’s address the prequel talk first. The film began life as a prequel to Alien before Scott came out »

Our weekly round-up of the big news stories from the world of movie superheroes…

It's been another busy week for Batman fans as The Dark Knight Rises marketing campaign continues to pick up the pace ahead of the film's arrival next month. Earlier in the week, two new TV spots were released, along with a host of set reports and cast interviews as Warner Bros. lifted the embargo on sites lucky enough to receive an invite to the Pittsburgh set of the hugely anticipated sequel. You can check out a selection of the set reports at Batman-on-Film, HitFlix, IGN, Movies.com and SuperHeroHype, but the pick of the bunch comes from Collider, who have posted separate interviews with Christian Bale, Tom Hardy, Anne Hathaway and producer Emma Thomas, in addition to a detailed '20 Things to Know About The Dark Knight Rises' feature...

Damon Lindelof Close To Massive Deal

17 hours ago | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

"Lost" co-creator Damon Lindelof is reportedly close to inking a massive overall deal with Warner Bros. TV. The full-time deal would make the "Prometheus" scribe an in-house series creator for the studio, where he would join the likes of J.J. Abrams, Greg Berlanti, Josh Schwartz and Kevin Williamson.

Lindelof was previously at ABC. That studio produced six massively successful seasons of "Lost," but Lindelof did not create another series for the network. The Warner Bros. deal, which THR describes as "rich," would be for three years.

“I think certainly film-wise, I’m spaced out, I think I’ve got the robot-spaceship future bug out of my system," Lindelof told Deadline.com. “I probably won’t be the guy who creates the next 'Mad Men' or 'Breaking Bad,' though I love both of these shows. What I love about television is character-based storytelling, and I want to continue to »

Revolution - Billy Burke and Tracy Spiridakos Discuss the new Show

18 hours ago | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »

Revolution premieres on NBC this fall from creators Eric Kripke (Supernatural), J.J. Abrams (Lost, Star Trek) and director Jon Favreau (Iron Man). Tracy Spiridakos (Being Human) and Billy Burke star in the show that takes place fifteen years after all electronics instantly stopped working unexpectedly. Spiridakos plays Charlie, "a teenage girl trying to rescue her brother, after he’s taken by the leader of a local militia (Breaking Bad’s Giancarlo Esposito). Needing help, Charlie goes to find her uncle, Miles (Billy Burke), a man she’s never met – but one whose skills can certainly be of use to her."

IGN spoke with Burke and Spiridakos recently, where they shared their excitement for the new show and working with its creators. Here is what Burke had to say:

“I just saw it the other day, and I kind of can’t believe I got lucky enough to be on this show. »

Emerson Joins Woody Allen's Latest

19 hours ago | EmpireOnline | See recent EmpireOnline news »

Michael Emerson has been best known for a while now as the creepy, manipulative, but in his own way heroic, Ben Linus on Lost. We’re guessing he’ll probably be a little bit less Machiavellian when he joins the cast of Woody Allen’s latest, untitled film. Allen’s still-under-the-usual-Woody-wraps project sees the writer-director returning to the Us for the first time since he began his series of European movies a few years ago.Almost nothing is known about the movie, aside from the fact that Sally Hawkins will be playing a fun neurotic type, with Cate Blanchett as a more balance woman.The Lost veteran is joining an ensemble that already includes recent Allen veteran Alec Baldwin, Bobby Cannavale and Alexander Kanellakos. It’s predicted to begin shooting this summer in New York and San Francisco.Emerson, who was last in a wide release with The Legend Of Zorro, »

Lindelof Close to Moving in with WB TV

2 June 2012 5:20 PM, PDT | FamousMonsters of Filmland | See recent Famous Monsters of Filmland news »

Hollywood Reporter has announced that Damon Lindelof, co-creator of Lost and scribe of Prometheus and the upcoming Star Trek 2 is joining Warner Brothers TV in a three year deal to develop TV series. He deserves the reported massive deal.

With Prometheus and Star Trek 2 (not to mention the secretive 1952) in the pipeline, it’s a slight surprise to see Lindelof return to TV, but then again, with Lost and his help with Once Upon A Time, the guy has a knack for both realms, and clearly has a passion for TV. He’s reuniting with his buddy Jj Abrams at the studio, and if anything, this promises more sci-fi and fantasy tinged shows in the near future, which is always cause for celebration. »

Lost Co-Creator Damon Lindelof Returning to Television Full-Time

2 June 2012 9:05 AM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »

Following the series finale of Lost, co-creator and co-showrunner Damon Lindelof has been quite busy in the film world.  He was a credited writer on last year’s Cowboys & Aliens, he co-wrote the upcoming Star Trek sequel, and he wrote Ridley Scott’s highly anticipated return to sci-fi, Prometheus.  Now it appears that Lindelof is about ready to return to the TV world, as the scribe is nearing a three-year overall deal with Warner Bros. TV.  As Lindelof himself puts it, “I’m ready to come back to TV full-time.” Hit the jump for more from Lindelof, including what genre of series he plans on creating and what kind of network he’s looking for. Though plenty of creatives sign overall deals in which they dabble in different media, Lindelof flat-out states that this deal is about him creating his next show.  I’m sure he’ll develop and produce »

Matthew Fox pleads no contest in DUI case

1 June 2012 6:35 PM, PDT | Pop2it | See recent Pop2it news »

It's been a decent week for Matthew Fox as it relates to his problems with the criminal justice system. The former "Lost" star won't get jail time in exchange for a "no contest" plea for DUI.

TMZ is reporting that Fox, as part of his plea for the May 4 incident in Bend, Or, can't drive or drink for one year. The publication adds that Fox must also complete a drug and alcohol treatment program.

This news comes just a day after it was reported that a female bus driver dropped an assault charge against Fox. Heather Bormann had said the actor hit her repeatedly in the chest and groin after she denied him access to a chartered party bus in Cleveland.

Provided that Fox complies with all the court-ordered activities in the DUI case, the charges will be dropped.

Damon Lindelof Finalizing Deal With Wbtv: “I’m Ready To Come Back To TV Full Time’

1 June 2012 6:21 PM, PDT | Deadline TV | See recent Deadline TV news »

Exactly two years after Lost bowed out with one of the most talked-about finales in TV history, the series’ co-creator/co-showrunner Damon Lindelof is returning to the TV island after treading feature waters for the past two years. Lindelof is finalizing a rich three-year overall deal with Warner Bros. TV, which also is the TV home of Lindelof’s mentor-turned-frequent collaborator, Lost co-creator  J.J. Abrams. While he will consider developing projects with other writers down the road, “at this point I still look at myself as a writer,” Lindelof said. “This (deal) is about me creating my next show.” As for what that show would be, he would like to do a broadcast series again, and he definitely wants to try his hand in the cable arena. In terms of genres, after working on several back-to-back sci-fi features, most recently Prometheus and Abrams’ Star Trek sequel, “I think certainly film-wise, »

Damon Lindelof Wants To Take On Iron Fist!

1 June 2012 5:00 PM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »

Cbm recently did an interview with the man with the golden touch Damon Lindelof (Lost, Prometheus). In the interview Lindelof, a well known comic book fan, was asked what character he would like to bring to the big screen and this was his answer...

One character I've always loved is Iron Fist, and Matt Fractions incredible run with him a couple of years back. I always thought that would make a really cool movie. But I am hard pushed to think of me doing anything better than The Avengers which I just thought was phenomenal.

When asked about previous attempts to get this character off the ground, and why they failed, Lindelof responded with this:

Yeah well I mean I think it's because he's even more fringy than Iron Man was, and also because he's called Iron Fist they may be worried about some confusion with the Iron Man franchise, »

Matthew Fox Strikes Plea Deal In DUI Case

1 June 2012 4:01 PM, PDT | WENN | See recent WENN news »

Actor Matthew Fox has been banned from driving and drinking alcohol for a year after striking a plea deal in his DUI case.

The Lost star was charged with two misdemeanours, driving under the influence and driving without a licence, after he was pulled over by police in Bend, Oregon in the early hours of 4 May.

He was due to be arraigned in court next week, but Fox has since pleaded no contest to one count of driving under the influence after reportedly reaching an agreement with authorities that will keep him out of jail.

According to TMZ.com, the actor has been told he has to give up boozing and the keys to his car for one year. He also has to complete a drug and alcohol treatment programme.

It has been a headline-grabbing week for Fox - on Thursday, a female bus driver dropped her assault lawsuit against the actor following an altercation in Cleveland, Ohio last year, and earlier this week, his Lost co-star Dominic Monaghan accused the actor of "beating women" in a series of sensational tweets.

The Brit's unsubstantiated claims have been dismissed by Fox's aides but the star has yet to comment. »

Damon Lindelof Wants To Adapt 'Iron Fist'

1 June 2012 3:51 PM, PDT | MTV Splash Page | See recent MTV Splash Page news »

"Lost." "Prometheus." "Star Trek 2." "Cowboys & Aliens." If it's popular and sci-fi and released over the past five years, Damon Lindelof has probably had some say in it. That's why everyone's very curious to see what Lindelof will do next now that "Prometheus" is almost in theaters and "Star Trek 2" is filming.

Well, he has an answer to that question, though it wasn't quite what we were expecting. Apparently Lindelof is itching for a challenge, and the answer to that challenge might come in the form of an "Iron Fist" adaptation.

"I think I would rather do a character that not many people knew, and maybe saw as lame and couldn't carry their own movie," he said in an interview with ComicBookMovie. "One character I've always loved is Iron Fist, and Matt Fraction's incredible run with him a couple of years back. I always thought that would make a really cool movie. »

No Jail For DUI, Assault Charges Dropped: Things Are Looking Slight Less Horrible For Matthew Fox

1 June 2012 3:45 PM, PDT | TheFabLife - Movies | See recent TheFabLife - Movies news »

After having what for most people would be the worst week of their life, Lost actor Matthew Fox some good news today. Of course, no news could be good enough to counterbalance the awfulness he was accused of on Wednesday, so take that into consideration. After being arrested for a DUI in Oregon earlier this month, TMZ reports that Fox struck a plea deal with prosecutors which will ensure he doesn’t get jail time; as part of the deal Matthew pled no contest to one count of DUI, lost his license for a year and has to undergo drug and alcohol treatment. Oh, boy. Actually, that news is kind of a mixed bag, too.

That being said, the actor had to be pleased that Heather Bormann, the Cleveland party bus driver who accused Fox of assaulting her last year, had her case recently withdrawn by her lawyer after she »

Ben Linus From 'Lost' Joins Woody Allen's Next Film, Will Probably Be Creepy In It

1 June 2012 3:42 PM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »

"Lost" may be over, but Ben Linus continues to creep us out thanks to Michael Emerson's magnificent portrayal of the enigmatic member of the Dharma Initiative. And for better or worse, that persona is one that continues to be attached to Emerson, even after the series has ended.

We'll see if he can break the mold he's been put into with a role in Woody Allen's upcoming untitled movie. Emerson joins another strong ensemble being put together by the director that includes Alec Baldwin, Cate Blanchett, Bobby Cannavale, Bradley Cooper and Sally Hawkins. What is it about? Who knows. Plot details are under wraps as they always are, but the film does mark Allen's return to the United States with shooting to take place in San Francisco and New York City.

So, will the director use Emerson's ability to be a total creep to his advantage, or will »

June Preview: ‘Prometheus,’ ‘Rock of Ages,’ and ‘Brave’

1 June 2012 2:30 PM, PDT | The Scorecard Review | See recent Scorecard Review news »

Monthly Movie Preview – June 2012

No offense to people who like the month of June, but this might be the weakest month of the summer movie season. Especially with G.I. Joe: Retaliation going Mia from the month’s slate, this one doesn’t have the firepower of May (The Avengers, Men in Black 3), July (The Amazing Spider-Man, The Dark Knight Rises) or possibly even August (The Bourne Legacy, The Expendables 2).

Instead, this month looks to have some of the most random offerings of them all. Sure, Prometheus, Brave, and Rock of Ages are mixed in there, but so is another Tyler Perry movie (Madea’s Witness Protection), Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, and yup, that Channing Tatum stripping movie Magic Mike. Oh, and a movie in which Mark Wahlberg hangs out with a raunchy teddy bear (Ted) for good measure. Add a Pixar movie on top, (Brave), and you’ve got June. »
