The new poster for the remake of Carrie, directed by Kimberly Peirce (Boys Don’t Cry, Stop-Loss) and starring Chloe Moretz and Julianne Moore, has just been released. That’s not it above, that’s just a photo from the film to lure you in to this article. The full version is below.
There’s been some other posters, only one of which doesn’t focus on Carrie covered in pig’s blood. The more interesting of these is a close-up of Julianne Moore’s face, staring out from the poster as Carrie’s overbearing Christian mother. That’s more inventive than this one which, while undoubtedly effective, baldly states the events of the film and pitches it as a rubbish teen horror.
Chloe Moretz herself has compared the film to Black Swan, which the Julianne Moore-themed poster points to rather than the Chloe Moretz one. But the signifying »

20th Century Fox landed the rights to the stage and movie classic Guys and Dolls, which starred Frank Sinatra and Marlon Brando. The studio is looking to start developing the project soon. According to Deadline they want to cast Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Channing Tatum as the two main characters. Apparently, they're both interested in doing it. The studio still has yet to bring on a writer and director.
The musical was taken from Damon Runyon’s short stories that captured the rogue gangsters and gamblers of the 1920s and 1930s. Here, Nathan Detroit (Sinatra) has a town full of captive gamblers and wants to set up a floating crap game but needs money to do it. He bets his pal Sky Masterson (Brando) that Sky can’t get the wholesome Sarah Brown (Jean Simmons) — who runs a mission — to go with him to Havana.
The book was written by Jo Swerling and Abe Burrows, »

Carrie is all about the blood. So I imagine almost every piece of marketing material we're going to see from the film will feature Chloe Moretz as the title character covered in blood. There's that pivotal point in the story where she gets a bucket full of pigs blood dumped on her head, which sets her off and she ends up going on a horrifically deadly killing spree with the powers of her mind.
The new adaptation was directed by Kimberly Peirce (Boys Don't Cry, Stop-Loss) and also stars Julianne Moore, Judy Greer, Portia Doubleday, Alex Russell, Gabriella Wilde, and Ansel Elgort. It's set to be released on October 18th, 2013. Click here to watch the latest trailer.

Channing Tatum and Joseph Gordon-Levitt just might be the guys to fill Marlon Brando and Frank Sinatra's shoes. Deadline reports that Fox is eyeing the two stars for a remake of the classic musical, “Guys and Dolls.” Hollywood has been trying to put together a remake of the 1955 movie for years, but the studio only just secured the rights from songwriter Frank Loesser's widow. The original movie starred Brando and Sinatra as the “Guys,” two charming small-time gamblers. Jean Simmons and original Broadway cast member Vivien Blaine played the “Dolls.” The musical's famous songs include “Luck Be a Lady” and “Sit Down, You're Rocking the Boat.” Both Tatum and Gordon-Levitt can sing and dance, as they demonstrated earlier this year at the Oscars. And they've even teamed up before — in “G.I. Joe: The Rise of the Cobra,” “Stop-Loss,” and “Havoc.” Tatum also made an appearance in Gordon-Levitt's directorial debut, »

Channing Tatum and Joseph Gordon-Levitt showed off their song-and-dance skills during this year's Academy Awards, and now the actors may soon be headlining a remake of musical classic "Guys and Dolls."
Hollywood has been trying to get a new take on the classic 1950 Broadway musical off the ground for years, and Deadline is reporting 20th Century Fox has finally secured the movie rights from songwriter Frank Loesser's widow Jo Loesser. The only previous film version was a 1955 hit starring Marlon Brando, Frank Sinatra, Jean Simmons and original Broadway cast member Vivian Blaine.
Tatum and Gordon-Levitt are no strangers to working together, having co-starred in 2009's "G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra," 2008's "Stop-Loss" and 2005's "Havoc." Tatum also has a cameo in Gordon-Levitt's directorial debut "Don Jon."
In addition to the Oscars, both actors have demonstrated their appreciation for musical comedy as guest hosts of "Saturday Night Live" and »

First of all, if you still haven't seen the original feature film adaptation of Stephen King's Carrie, you need to go watch it now. As good as this remake looks I still don't think it will live up to the horrific creepiness of the first one.
The studio has released a couple of new images from the film. One features Chloe Moretz drenched in pigs blood, which I know we've seen before. The second one features Moretz and her crazy mother played by Julianne Moore. Even though it won't be as good as the first movie, it still looks like the remake will be an entertaining horror flick!
The new adaptation was directed by Kimberly Peirce (Boys Don't Cry, Stop-Loss) and also stars Judy Greer, Portia Doubleday, Alex Russell, Gabriella Wilde, and Ansel Elgort. It's set to be released on October 18th, 2013.

Just as the pointless remake of Evil Dead signals a total lack of interest on the part of moviegoers in anything original via its very good North American debut comes the next old thing. Can there be any good creative reason to remake Brian De Palma’s 1976 film? Maybe director Kimberly Peirce has found a reason. We might expect the director of the distressing and questioning Boys Don't Cry and Stop-Loss to find such a reason. But if Hollywood were truly interested in Peirce’s subversion, it wouldn’t have been five years since her last film... which was nine years after her first one. »

MGM and Screen Gems have released the first full length trailer for Carrie, the upcoming remake of Stephen King's classic tale about a timid high school girl with telekinetic powers who unleashes her fury upon her school after being pushed too far by her peers at the prom.
Directed by Kimberly Peirce (Boys Don't Cry, Stop-Loss), Carrie sees Chloe Grace Moretz (Dark Shadows, Kick-Ass 2) stepping into the role made famous by Sissy Spacek in Brian De Palma's 1976 shocker, while Julianne Moore (The Kids Are All Right, Game Change) overbearing, deeply religious mother. Check out the official synopsis, followed by the trailer below:

There are a couple of oddities when it comes to the upcoming Carrie remake and none of them involve the actors, but instead the awesome fact it's directed by Kimberly Peirce (Stop-Loss) and the worrisome fact it's being distributed by Screen Gems, whose last foray into remaking a classic resulted in the lackluster Straw Dogs remake. That said, I'm holding out hope this new film will deliver as Chloe Grace Moretz settles into the title role, an outcast, sheltered at home with her deeply religious and conservative mother (Julianne Moore), but soon Carrie's secret is unleashed, wrecking telekinetic havoc. The film co-stars Judy Greer, Portia Doubleday and Gabriella Wilde and will hit theaters on October 18. Watch the new Carrie trailer below. »

Carrie is a new screen interpretation of the Stephen King horror novel, which explores what happens when a teenager (Chloë Grace Moretz) – ostracized by her peers and tormented by her unhinged religious-fundamentalist mother (Julianne Moore) – discovers that she possesses telekinetic abilities that provide her with a newfound, dangerous and maybe even uncontrollable power to use against those who’ve tormented her in the past.
The Carrie teaser trailer premiered during New York Comic-Con 2012, but its thunder at the Con was immediately stolen thereafter by the debut of footage from the Evil Dead remake (which opens in theaters this Friday). Since then, director Kimberly Peirce’s (Boys Don’t Cry, Stop-Loss) King adaptation has been postponed until an October 2013 release date - meaning, today’s trailer is going to be important, in terms of reminding people about this year’s other controversial ...

"They're all going to laugh at you!"
I'm a fan of the original adaption of Stephen King's Carrie, and I was really hoping that this new remake would end up being a decent film. That being said, it looks like they might have pulled it off. The new adaptation was directed by Kimberly Peirce (Boys Don't Cry, Stop-Loss), and it stars Chole Moretz, Julianne Moore, Judy Greer, Portia Doubleday, Alex Russell, Gabriella Wilde, and Ansel Elgort.
As you'll see in the trailer, the director is putting more of a focus on the telekinetic powers that Carrie has, which is a different approach. Then of course the trailer highlights all of the classic scenes that I remember from the book, and the original film. In the end, we're going to get to see that blood filled, fiery revenge at the end of the movie. It's gonna be great!

Chloë Grace Moretz is front and centre of the new Carrie remake, due out just in time for Halloween in the Us, and we can’t wait to see what she brings to the table for the horror film.
The anticipated horror remake sees Moretz take the titular lead as Carrie White. And after catching a brilliant first teaser trailer late last year, Sony have debuted the first full-length trailer, and it gives us an awesome taste of the horrors to come.
A reimagining of the classic horror tale about Carrie White (Chloë Grace Moretz), a shy girl outcast by her peers and sheltered by her deeply religious mother (Julianne Moore), who unleashes telekinetic terror on her small town after being pushed too far at her senior prom.
Based on the best-selling novel by Stephen King, Carrie is directed by Kimberly Peirce with a screenplay by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa.
Moretz is joined by a terrific ensemble, »

Kimberly Peirce, the director of confrontational films Boys Don’T Cry and Stop-loss, may be awaiting the release of her remake of the Brian De Palma film Carrie, but that hasn’t stopped her getting prepared for her next project. Peirce will direct The Brand, a film based on a New Yorker article by David Grann. The film will see U.S. Attorney Gregory Jessner prosecuting 40 members of the Aryan Brotherhood prison gang. The script which originally adapted the article was written by Ric Roman Waugh, with later rewrites by Alessandro Camon.
I found a lot to admire in both Boys Don’T Cry and Stop-loss, and I am very excited to see how Peirce tackles a more mainstream film with Carrie. The Brand sounds more inline with her previous features, and it’s a case I’m not too familiar with. But that can change right now as I »

Here's a new photo from the upcoming Carrie remake featuring a blood-drenched Chloe Moretz. It looks like she should be part of the new Evil Dead remake that's being made! I'm a huge fan of the original horror film, but I'm still looking forward to seeing this remake. It's hard not to get a little excited about it, especially with the cast, which also includes Julianne Moore, Judy Greer, Portia Doubleday, Alex Russell, Gabriella Wilde, and Ansel Elgort.
The new adaptation was directed by Kimberly Peirce (Boys Don't Cry, Stop-Loss), and it's set to be released on October 18th, 2013 just in time for Halloween. I hope it ends up being a disturbing, fun time! Here's the synopsis...
