Ed Helms Joins Joe Carnahan’s Latest Stretch

11 June 2013 7:34 AM, PDT | We Got This Covered | See recent We Got This Covered news »

I continue to feel that Ed Helms is better than the material he’s been offered in recent years. He’s certainly better than The Hangover franchise, and more interesting than his Office character. Maybe he will finally get some material worthy of him as he joins Joe Carnahan’s upcoming film Stretch, alongside Patrick Wilson.

Ed Helms has signed on to Stretch following the delay of Warner Brothers reboot of Vacation. The film follows a chauffeur (Patrick Wilson) deeply in debt who wind up driving around a mysterious billionaire. Things go bad, though, and the chauffeur apparently gets involved in some of the billionaire’s nefarious doings. Helms, rather against type, will play the billionaire.

Nothing has yet been revealed of what genre this film can expected to fall into. Carnahan’s directing credits include the more comedic action films Smokin’ Ace and The A-Team, but Stretch is being produced by Jason Blum, »

Ed Helms Joins Patrick Wilson And Chris Pine In Joe Carnahan's Action Comedy Stretch

10 June 2013 4:12 PM, PDT | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »

The casting process for Joe Carnahan's upcoming action comedy Stretch has mostly been about fun reunions between the director and former stars, including The A-Team's Patrick Wilson and Smokin' Aces' Chris Pine. But the newest addition to the production is not only a Carnahan first-timer, but also set to play one of the film's two biggest roles. Ed Helms, who was just seen wrapping up the end of the Hangover trilogy last month and returning as real estate agent James Carri in the fourth season of Arrested Development, has signed on to Stretch, which has been confirmed to be Carnahan's next film. The story centers on a unlucky limo driver - played by Wilson - who tries to work off a major debt by chauffeuring a mysterious billionaire around town. Things wind up going horribly wrong, however, and the two men end up going through a night of hell. »

What Went Wrong?

20 May 2013 6:10 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

Warning: Spoilers about "Star Trek Into Darkness" lie ahead.

Looks like the phasers were set to stun after all: despite the added benefit of 3-D surcharges, "Star Trek Into Darkness" opened with $84 million over its first four days of release, just $9 million more than its 2009 predecessor managed in just three days. (Over three days, "Star Trek Into Darkness" made $5 million less than "Star Trek.") That's a far cry from the $100 million opening Paramount had targeted for "Into Darkness" following its $13.5 million opening day on Thursday. While it's doubtful there are too many tears being shed on the bridge of the U.S.S. Enterprise -- "Star Trek Into Darkness" added $80 million overseas, already putting it on track to top the $127 million "Star Trek" earned internationally in 2009 -- the "Into Darkness" opening was a domestic disappointment. Why did J.J. Abrams' highly anticipated film trip out of the starting gate? Ahead, »

Europa Report trailer kind of sucks

17 May 2013 7:07 AM, PDT | Upcoming-Movies.com | See recent Upcoming-Movies.com news »

So the new trailer is up for Europa Report, starring District 9's Sharlto Copley and, despite all the additions of critic praise pasted everywhere on the video, it looks well, bloody awful. I always take it as a bad sign when a film has to over-use those. I like Sharlto, he truly is a great guy and I've known him since back when I lived in South Africa, and I wish him well, but I believe it's time to get that American accent down for good my friend. It's everywhere at the moment, and if I can pick that up from the mere short time in the trailer, then I can only imagine what it must be like in the entire duration of the film, as it was in The A-Team. Europa Report from director Sebastián Cordero opens via Magnet Releasing on June 27th on iTunes and VOD, and »

New 2013 TV Series Breakdown: NBC

13 May 2013 11:01 AM, PDT | Dark Horizons | See recent Dark Horizons news »

The Fall TV Season presentations for all the new network shows take place this week with the first announced today. Here's a full breakdown of which concepts have made the final list over on NBC.

The Peacock did not have a good year. Only one of its new shows, "Revolution," was a true hit. Another, "Chicago Fire," got renewed by the skin of its teeth whilst the fate of a third, "Hannibal," remains uncertain.

None of last year's new comedies survived, neither did two mid-season dramas, which leaves the network with some big holes to fill. Three dramas and three comedies will debut in the Fall ahead of three more dramas and two comedies mid-season. Two further dramas and a comedy are presently unscheduled.

Several other pilots didn't make the final cut and won't become series including the high-profile Charlize Theron-produced drama about the Hatfields and McCoys, the Bruckheimer-produced »

Check Out The Trailers For NBC's New Shows

13 May 2013 12:04 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

James Spader returns to NBC with "The Blacklist" on this fall.

The "Office" alum and longtime "Boston Legal" star returns to the spotlight on the Peacock network and this time, instead of upholding the law (albeit via blackmail, bribery and the like), he's breaking it. In NBC's upcoming series "The Blacklist," Spader stars as Raymond “Red” Reddington, the most wanted man in the world.

Check out Spader and his devilish ways below in NBC's new four-minute trailer for "The Blacklist", as well as two new preview clips, and scroll down for more previews and official descriptions of the new series on NBC's 2013-2014 schedule: the “Ironside" remake starring Blair Underwood, the new Mike O'Malley comedy "Welcome To The Family," Sean Hayes' return to sitcoms with "Sean Saves The World," and, of course, the highly-anticipated "Michael J. Fox Show."

TV News: NBC Announces Fall Schedule with Six New Shows, Changes to Every Night

12 May 2013 3:18 PM, PDT | HollywoodChicago.com | See recent HollywoodChicago.com news »

Chicago – When you’re in as much of a ratings struggle as NBC, it makes sense to shake things up and that’s exactly what they’re doing in the Fall with a new show or an old show in a new time every single night of the week. “Chicago Fire,” “Revolution,” “The Biggest Loser,” “Parks and Recreation,” and “Parenthood” are moving. “Community” is being held until a midseason, 13-episode run. No decision yet made on “Celebrity Apprentice” or “Hannibal,” which isn’t that surprising as they are mid-season shows anyway although it shouldn’t give fans of either program confidence as NBC announced a midseason schedule as well and they’re not on it. Anything could still happen with either program however and they could be held as replacements for shows that fail. That may be the best shot for “Hannibal” fans now. The best new show on the »

Matt Damon Gears up for More Post-Apocalyptism in New Elysium Still

2 May 2013 | Horror Asylum | See recent Horror Asylum news »

It's certainly the year for sci-fi what with 'Pacific Rim', 'Oblivion', 'Star Trek into Darkness' and more on the agenda. The La Times have revealed the newest still from Neill Blomkamp's ('District 9') latest venture into science fiction. Matt Damon ('Contagion') features on the latest image from 'Elysium' the highly anticipated feature from the acclaimed South African director. And we have to assume the other bearded fellow in the image alongside Damon is the excellent Sharlto Copley ('Europa Report', 'The A-Team'). Jodie Foster ('Silence of the Lambs), William Fichtner ('Drive Angry'), Michael Shanks ('Saving Hope'), Alice Braga ('I Am Legend'), Diego Luna, Talisa Soto and Carly Pope also star in the project.

Sharlto Copley Reteaming With Neill Blomkamp For 'Chappie'

1 May 2013 7:21 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »

While it will wind up being a four year wait between “District 9” and “Elysium” when the latter picture drops this summer, Neill Blomkamp has not wasted much time prepping for his next film, the sci-fi comedy “Chappie.” While the recent news of South African rap duo Die Antwoord being cast as the leads in the film was certainly a surprise, this particular piece of news should come as no shock to anyone. Sharlto Copley is officially on board for the film, firmly establishing himself as Blomkamp’s go-to guy. No details about who Copley will be playing as the entire project has been kept under wraps at this point, but he teased the news himself in a recent Facebook post. Other than a co-starring role in Joe Carnahan’s “The A-Team” remake back in 2010, we haven’t really seen much of Sharlto Copley outside of Blomkamp’s films. Luckily, »

1 May 2013 2:19 AM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »

Visionary director Neill Blomkamp will re-team with South African acting muse Sharlto Copley for a third time on what the filmmaker recently called “a science-fiction comedy” in an “unusual setting.” That is as much as we know on the plot of the mystery project titled Chappie.

Copley, who also formed part of The A-team and will next been seen as the villain of both futuristic epic Elysium (released in the Us 9th August and the UK 20th September) and Spike Lee’s Oldboy remake (released 11th October), made his feature film debut as the lead Wikus Van De Merwe in Blomkamp’s Oscar-nominated District 9. He’s also onboard another science-fiction thriller, Europa Report, in which plays an Astronaut exploring Jupiter’s fourth moon, who along with his team, runs into trouble.

More as we get it.

30 April 2013 8:43 AM, PDT | Movies.com | See recent Movies.com news »

Annie: Jamie Foxx may play a “variation” on Daddy Warbucks in the upcoming musical adaptation Annie. Young Academy Award-nominated actress Quvenzhane Wallis (Beasts of the Southern Wild) is already set to play the titlular role of a little orphan girl for producers Will Smith and Jay-z. If the negotiations are successful, Foxx would be singing on-screen for the first time since 2006’s Dreamgirls. [The Hollywood Reporter] Sugar Bandits: Filmmaker Joe Carnahan, who scored a one-two action punch with The A-Team and The Grey a couple of years ago but has since seen other potential projects such as Daredevil fall through, is now in talks to direct Sugar Bandits, based on a novel by Chuck Hogan (The Town, adapted into Ben Affleck’s movie).

Beware, Drug Dealers: Joe Carnahan’s Sugar Bandits are Coming

30 April 2013 8:23 AM, PDT | Beyond Hollywood | See recent Beyond Hollywood news »

Sounds like director Joe Carnahan is going back to basics in his next movie. The man who gave us “Blood, Guts, Bullets and Octane”, “Narc” and “Smokin’ Aces” before doing a detour into big-budget actioners like “The A-Team” will be heading to the Boston-set actioner “Sugar Bandits”. The film will be based on the 2010 book “Devils in Exile” by Chuck Hogan (who co-wrote “The Strain” with Guillermo del Toro and wrote “The Town”, the book that Ben Affleck crime flick’s of the same name was based on). The book and movie will follow an Iraqi War vet named Neal Maven, “who is facing dead-end jobs and small futures in Boston. When he and some other soldiers team up in a scheme to rip off local drug dealers, destroying the product and grabbing their money.” So, Robin Hood … in the hood?

Joe Carnahan to Direct Sugar Bandits

30 April 2013 7:00 AM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »

The Grey director Joe Carnahan is in talks to direct a big screen adaptation of Chuck Hogan's book Devils in Exile. The film will be called Sugar Bandits, and the author of the book also adapted the screenplay.

The story follows "an Iraq war vet named Neal Maven who is facing dead-end jobs and small futures in Boston. When he and some other soldiers team up in a scheme to rip off local drug dealers for profit, he soon finds his life in jeopardy. Doesn't help that he ends up sleeping with his employer's girlfriend, either."

This seems like a good project for Carnahan, who's also directed film like Smokin' Aces and The A-Team. His directing style should be a good fit for the adaptation. Hogan also wrote The Town, which Ben Affleck directed, as well as co-authored The Strain with Guillermo del Toro.

Daredevil movie rights revert back to Marvel/Disney

24 April 2013 10:54 AM, PDT | Filmonic.com | See recent Filmonic news »

The Daredevil movie rights have sensationally reverted back to Marvel/Disney from 20th Century Fox. This has actually been on the cards for a while and it seemed that when Joe Carnahan (Narc, The A-Team) failed with his last-ditch attempt at a reboot last year, the writing was on the wall. This means that Matt Murdock/Daredevil [...]

'Daredevil' Film Rights Back With Marvel

23 April 2013 2:00 PM, PDT | MTV Splash Page | See recent MTV Splash Page news »

by Eddie Wright

According to Newsarama, during an "Iron Man 3" press junket, Marvel Studios president of production, Kevin Feige confirmed that the cinematic rights to "Daredevil" have reverted back to Marvel. Newsarama says, "We directly asked Feige if the reports were accurate, to which he replied in the affirmative."

Previously, Fox had the rights to Daredevil and produced the 2003 lackluster film "Daredevil" starring Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner. According to an August 2012 report, Fox had until October 10, 2012 to get a new film into production or the rights would revert back to Marvel. Fox rushed a new Daredevil film into development, first working with director by David Slade ("The Twilight Saga: Eclipse," "30 Days of Night") until that fell through and Fox moved to Joe Carnahan ("The Grey," "The A-Team"). Carnahan's film also didn't make the cut and the film did not get the greenlight. Carnahan then released a killer sizzle »
