Several Directors Rumored for ‘Pirates of the Caribbean 5′ Shortlist
9 May 2013 8:40 PM, PDT | ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news »
While each new installment in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise has gotten increasingly poor reviews, the movies have continued to be massive box office successes for Disney (particularly in foreign markets, where the movies made more than 65% of their grosses).
So naturally it’s no surprise that the company is forging ahead with Pirates of the Caribbean 5. At the beginning of the year, Terry Rossi’s script was rewritten by Jeff Nathanson (Tower Heist). Now we have word that Disney has several names on a shortlist to direct the film.
According to Deadline, the directors in consideration for the big budget project are Fredrik Bond (The Necessary Death Of Charlie Countryman), Joachim Ronning and Espen Sandberg (Kon-Tiki), and Rupert Sanders (Snow White and The Huntsman). Of the options, Sanders ...

Universal's Adam Fogelson Makes a Splash at CinemaCon
18 April 2013 11:08 AM, PDT | Thompson on Hollywood | See recent Thompson on Hollywood news »
Universal Pictures chairman Adam Fogelson has been playing nice with national exhibitors ever since he tried to make "Tower Heist" available on VOD three weeks after the theatrical opening back in 2011. The exhibitors pushed back, and Fogelson backed off--for the moment. But he and other studios have been practicing back seat diplomacy ever since in order to try and come to some middle ground with exhibitors, as studios try to recover from declining DVD sales and consumers demand what they want wherever and whenever they want it. The theaters are hanging tough, but it looks like there may be some movement. For one thing the debate came out in the open at my CinemaCon “Meeting the Expectations of Today’s Savvy Moviegoer” 2.0 panel Wednesday. Fogelson carefully stated that theater owners should consider accepting shorter windows with VOD offered at a high price point, but "I don’t know what the answer is. »

CinemaCon: Universal’s Fogelson Touts Year-Round Scheduling
17 April 2013 1:19 PM, PDT | Variety - Film News | See recent Variety - Film News news »
Addressing a longstanding complaint from theater owners, Universal Studios chairman Adam Fogelson declared that studios should mimic U’s strategy of releasing major titles all year — rather than opting for just the summer and holidays.
“There are very few reasons why almost any film can’t open any weekend,” he said during Wednesday’s “Meeting the Expectations of Today’s Savvy Moviegoer” at CinemaCon at Ceasars Palace in Las Vegas.
Fogelson said U lacks the “luxury” of having intellectual property-based films that tend to be placed in the prime summer and holiday slots — such as the “Harry Potter” and “Spider-Man” franchises. Instead, he noted Universal has seen outstanding grosses from the past two “Fast and Furious” entries, both of which opened in April with record-setting launch weekends above $70 million and $85 million respectively.
Fogelson cited 2005 horror movie “White Noise” (pictured), which opened on the first weekend in January to $24 million and »

Kate Upton in talks for 'The Other Woman' opposite Cameron Diaz and Leslie Mann
16 April 2013 3:03 PM, PDT | Pop2it | See recent Pop2it news »
Supermodel Kate Upton could play the other woman in the upcoming 20th Century Fox movie "The Other Woman."
The film follows a woman who discovers that her boyfriend is something of a Lothario, and plots with his wife to get revenge on him. "Game of Thrones" star Nikolaj Coster-Waldau is slated for the cheating husband/boyfriend, while Cameron Diaz and Leslie Mann are up for the girlfriend and wife roles, Variety reports. Upton would play the woman Coster-Waldau's character is cheating with.
Considering Upton's good looks, it's no surprise that she is being considered for the part. It remains to be seen how big a role it is, though, as Upton has limited film experience. She had small parts in 2011's "Tower Heist" and 2012's "The Three Stooges." Fox also distributed "The Three Stooges."
"My Sister's Keeper" and "The Notebook" helmer Nick Cassavetes is directing "The Other Woman." Melissa Stack is writing the script. »

Kate Upton Joins 'The Other Woman' With Cameron Diaz & Leslie Mann
16 April 2013 7:25 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
Though he’s still finding financing for his Rick Ross biopic (of the drug dealer and not the bawse we know and love), Nick Cassavetes is loading up his Cameron Diaz-starring romantic comedy “The Other Woman.” Two actors have come on board, one’s a famous model and the other’s somebody you might know. Deadline is reporting that Sports Illustrated cover girl Kate Upton is joining the cast that not only includes Diaz but also Leslie Mann and “Game Of Thrones” actor Nikolaj Coster-Waldau. This would mark Upton’s third big-screen appearance following “Tower Heist” and last year’s ill-conceived “The Three Stooges” update. Third time’s the charm? It'll likely be her most substantial part to date at any rate. Joining her is one of the Navy Seals seen in “Zero Dark Thirty,” Taylor Kinney. We know what you’re thinking: which Seal was he?

Kate Upton may play the other "Other Woman."
Variety reports that the 20-year-old swimsuit model is in talks to join the upcoming film, "The Other Woman."
Directed by Nick Cassavetes ("The Notebook"), "The Other Woman" tells the story of a man (played by Nikolaj Coster Waldau) who is cheating on his wife (Leslie Mann).

Kate Upton Is The Other Woman In A Comedy With Cameron Diaz And Leslie Mann
16 April 2013 5:10 AM, PDT | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »
I know what you're probably thinking. Yes, Kate Upton is gorgeous, but does this Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue cover model even act? Actually, Upton has two movies to her credit, having had a bit part in Brett Ratner's Tower Heist, as well as a role in the already forgotten Farrelly Bros. comedy The Three Stooges. But while I don't remember her from the first and never saw the second, I have to admit, Upton seems the perfect pick for this latest role Variety reports she's landed. Penned by buzzed about screenwriter Melissa Stack, The Other Woman has been described as The First Wives Club for a younger audience. Cameron Diaz is set to star as a woman who is horrified to discover her gorgeous boyfriend (Game of Thrones' Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) is actually married.and also cheating on her with a new, younger girlfriend.

26 March 2013 12:12 PM, PDT | Digital Spy | See recent Digital Spy - Movie News news »

New Trailer for Paul Walker’s Vehicle 19
25 March 2013 8:10 PM, PDT | Beyond Hollywood | See recent Beyond Hollywood news »
It doesn’t have the words “Fast” or “Furious” in the title, which probably explains why Paul Walker’s latest vehicular actioner, “Vehicle 19″ is getting a June 14th release date before it hits VOD and DVD on July 23rd the following month. And oh, by the way, the film is also getting a Premium VOD release on May 16th, a month before the film’s theatrical release. From what I understand, Premium VODs usually cost way more than your standard VOD rental. Universal, for instance, last year offered “Tower Heist” via Premium VOD at $60 a pop. I’m guessing “Vehicle 19″ won’t cost nearly that much. Probably. In any case, check out a second trailer for Paul Walker’s “Vehicle 19″. The gimmick here seems to be that after the initial first few minutes when Walker’s character goes in search of his rental car, the rest of »

Hercules leads a team of mercenaries on a mission that's not what it seems.
Feb. 12, 2013 - Why overthink it? MGM is making the movie Hercules and is in talks with the world's most obvious choice to play the strongest man ever, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. Tower Heist director Brett Ratner is helming the film that is being adapted from the Radical Publishing graphic novel, "Hercules: The Thracian War," which indicates this likely Won't be one of the many kids' movies he makes.

Ian McShane Will Mentor The Rock In Hercules
21 March 2013 2:02 PM, PDT | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »
You think you know the story of Hercules? The Rock and Brett Ratner are en route to proving you wrong. The Tower Heist director is helming a new and reportedly grittier take on the Greek myth from the Radical Studios graphic novel that sets up the mighty demigod as a mercenary for hire. Dwayne Johnson will front Hercules in the title role, and previous casting reports revealed Aksel Hennie (Headhunters) and Rufus Sewell (Dark City) will co-star. But with production set to start in a few short weeks, casting is heating up. And this epic's ensemble is growing even more impressive. THR reports that Ian McShane (Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides), Joseph Fiennes (Shakespeare in Love), John Hurt (Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy) and Swedish actress Rebecca Ferguson (A One-Way Trip to Antibes) have signed on to the tent pole pic.
