Three new posters for The Man Of Steel have dropped, courtesy of Warner Bros., featuring Superman (proving Henry Cavill has the heroic look down), Micheal Shannon's menacing Zod, and a bad ass, gun toting Russell Crowe as Jor-El, Superman's birth father. As awesome as all the posters and footage for the movie that has been released lately is, it is just making the wait even longer. I'm seriously thinking of just hibernating till June 14th! Synopsis: From Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures comes “Man of Steel,” starring Henry Cavill (“Immortals,” TV’s “The Tudors”) in the role of Clark Kent/Superman, under the direction of Zack Snyder (“300,” “Watchmen”).

The phase “Like Buses” is an often overused expression, certainly here in the UK. However, it must definitely apply in this case as The Fighter and Silver Linings Playbook director David O. Russell is the latest filmmaker lining up conspiracy thriller centred on the infamous assassination of John F. Kennedy. I’m a sucker for the fascinating subject, with Oliver Stone’s JFK right up in my own top 5 of all time.
David Mamet has recently cast Oscar-winner Cate Blanchett in modern-set, cloak and dagger thriller Blackbird, in which a woman, following her fathers death, discovers he may have been involved in the cover-up. There is also debut writer/director Peter Landesman’s Parkland, the recently completed all-star thriller (which includes James Badge Dale, Zac Efron, Paul Giamatti and Billy Bob Thornton) that looks at the chaotic aftermath of the tragic event.
Russell’s film will be based on the the non-fiction book, »

Damon Lindelof (Prometheus, Star Trek Into Darkness) has offered some advice to Warner Bros. about their planned Justice League movie, which will tie together their superhero properties of Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, etc - just like Marvel did with The Avengers / Avengers Assemble.
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Lindelof was asked whether he would help WB solve their 'Justice League problem' if they called. He deflected the question with his superpower of Suggestion Shield...
"I think a lot of that depends on Man of Steel. The Justice League problem is not a problem of, who is the bad guy that Wonder Woman and Green Lantern, Superman, whoever you decide to pit them against. The problem is: What’s the tone of that movie? They’ve been struggling with launching their own tone. The tone of Green Lantern is very different from the tone of The Dark Knight. They »

Three new production featurettes for Zack Snyder's upcoming Superman film Man of Steel have been released (below) by Norton Anti-Virus. Yup. You know - the comic book-loving, computer protection programme (maybe Kryptonite is a new piece of malware).
There are a few glimpses of the film outside of those featured in the three trailers released so far, but interviews with cast and crew are also included. Each featurette focuses on a different one of Kal-El's powers: Strength, Flight and Speed.

We're just over a month away from the big screen return of Superman as Henry Cavill takes flight in director Zack Snyder's Man of Steel, and Warner Bros. has just released a rather superb new TV spot for the upcoming reboot via Yahoo! Movies, which may just be the finest one yet. Packed with plenty of exciting new footage - including a glimpse of Michael Shannon's General Zod unleashing his heat vision - if this doesn't leave you aching with anticipation for June 14th, then I'm afraid nothing will...

The first trailer for "The Butler" has just been released and showcases the pedigree of this project. Director Lee Daniels ("Precious") was inspired by the life of Eugene Allen, who worked at the White House for 34 years, rising from pantry man to head butler. Emmy champ Danny Strong ("Gmae Change") scripted this fictional version of his story. Oscar champ Forest Whitaker ("The Last King of Scotland," 2006) plays the title role while one-time Academy Award nominee Oprah Winfrey returns to the screen after a 15-year absence in the role of his wife. Among those playing the presidents and first ladies are Oscar champs Robin Williams ("Good Will Hunting," 1996) as Dwight Eisenhower, Melissa Leo ("The Fighter," 2010) as his wife Mamie and Jane Fonda ("Klute," 1971; "Coming Home," 1978) as Nancy Reagan. 1996 Supporting Actor winner Cuba Gooding Jr. ("Jerry Maguire&quo »

Exclusive: A&E has given a six-episode order to an untitled docu-reality series executive produced by Mark Wahlberg, which is set in his native Boston. This marks the first unscripted series for Wahlberg, who is executive producing through his Closest to the Hole Prods along with frequent collaborator Stephen Levinson of Leverage, Bill Thompson of Bill Thompson Prods. and veteran reality producer Stephanie Drachkovitch of 44 Blue Prods as well as Jennifer Colbert who serves as showrunner.

Wahlberg and Thompson were inspired by the women’s spirit and set out to find a group of those types of Boston girls going through challenging times and tell their story. The series, whose main themes are exceeding expectations and getting second chances, »

As "Silver Linings Playbook" comes out on DVD, the film that earned Bradley Cooper his first best actor Oscar nomination, well-reviewed "Place Beyond the Pines" is playing around the country, "The Hangover Part III" hits theaters on May 24, and Steven Spielberg has picked as his next movie "American Sniper," which was developed by Cooper's Warner Bros. production company. He'll star as Navy Seal Chris Kyle, an ace sniper who was tragically killed. This actor is clearly doing something right. In February Cooper rejoined David O. Russell for his next film, Abscam 80s drama "American Hustle," set for year-end award-season release from Sony, in which he'll co-star with "Silver Linings" pals Jennifer Lawrence and Robert De Niro, plus "The Fighter" Oscar-winners Christian Bale and Amy Adams, as well as Russell newbies Jeremy Renner, Jack Huston, Louis Ck and Michael Pena.

Anticipation for ‘the next Christopher Nolan film’ is usually at fever pitch by the time casting news begins to roll in, but fans have even more cause to expect greatness on the back of Nolan’s lastest casting announcement.
Having already put pen to paper with man-of-the-moment Matthew McConaughey and recent Oscar-winner Anne Hathaway, Deadline are now reporting that two-time Academy Award-nominee Jessica Chastain is set to join the cast as the film’s third lead.
A wealth of talent though this already is turning out to be, what’s even more interesting is that Nolan is yet to cast one of his ‘regulars’. One can only assume that Michael Caine will feature somewhere, but perhaps he’s been deemed too old for space/time travel? And perhaps Marion Cotillard’s last outing in a Nolan film was just too flat to warrant a recast in his next surefire hit? »
