Michael Fassbender (Shame) is attached to play the title role in a film update of Macbeth, William Shakespeare’s classic tragedy about a scheming nobleman intent on ruling Scotland. The play has been adapted for the big screen a number of times, including Orson Welles’ 1948 version in which he also played the character of Macbeth, and Roman Polanski’s 1971 version which starred Jon Finch. Justin Kurzel (The Snowtown Murders) will direct the Fassbender update which will reportedly use the original language. The part of Lady Macbeth has not been cast yet. [Screen Daily]

Raising Hope's Shannon Woodward Joins Road Trip Comedy Search Party

29 April 2013 3:52 PM, PDT | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »

Even though the screenplay for Scot Armstrong.s upcoming film Search Party . originally written by Mike Gagerman and Andrew Waller . was on the 2010 Blacklist, it still got a rewrite by first-time director Armstrong himself (whose most recent credits include The Hangover Part II and Road Trip 2: Beer Pong). Nothing would be better than for this film to be the complete opposite of derivative, but that might be asking too much. At least the cast should be able to help. Search Party has added Shannon Woodward as a female lead, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Woodward is probably most famous for her role as Jimmy.s romantic interest on Fox.s Raising Hope, though she was also in the FX series The Riches a few years ago. As far as features go, she.ll next be seen starring with John Cusack and Emma Roberts in Scott Coffey.s Adult World, »

Tribeca Film Review: ‘Adult World’

28 April 2013 1:10 PM, PDT | Variety - Film News | See recent Variety - Film News news »

A naive young poet with an inflated opinion of herself reluctantly accepts work at a sex shop while stalking her reclusive idol in Scott Coffey’s satirical, Syracuse-set coming-of-ager, “Adult World.” Coffey’s loose, casual style, tilting toward the performance-centric and improvisational — as with his 2005 debut, “Ellie Parker,” starring genius-caliber actress Naomi Watts — cannot fully accommodate the presence of former kidvid starlet Emma Roberts (“Nancy Drew”), heading an otherwise comfortable, quite excellent cast. Nevertheless, the film’s coyly titillating subject matter and John Cusack’s delicious star turn as a curmudgeonly, once-lionized poet should support a limited run.

Amy (Roberts) has somehow managed to reach 22 years of age with a college degree and little knowledge beyond an unshakeable belief in her own soon-to-be-feted genius. She writes bad, melodramatically anguished poetry under a poster of Sylvia Plath, convinced she need merely submit samplings of her oeuvre to be showered with prizes and acceptance. »

Exclusive: John Cusack & Malin Akerman Plan Their Next Move In Clip From 'The Numbers Station'

26 April 2013 7:24 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »

John Cusack has been making some interesting career twists and turns, last year starring in projects as diverse as the Gothic procedural "The Raven" and the Southern pulp "The Paperboy." Recently at the Tribeca Film Festival, his latest turn as a curmudgeonly but brilliant writer in "Adult World" was unveiled. And this weekend we'll see the actor move back into thriller mode with "The Numbers Station," and we've got an exclusive clip from the movie to share. Co-starring Malin Akerman, the film finds Cusack playing a disgraced black ops agent tasked with the dead-end job of protecting a code operator (Akerman) for an isolated covert CIA broadcast station. But when the station comes under siege from an elite team of unknown enemies, the pair have to team up to save their lives and try to uncover and stop the evil plot from unfolding. In the scene below, you'll see the »

Interview: Emma Roberts Talks 'Adult World' & Working With John Cusack Plus 'Palo Alto,' 'We're The Millers' & More

24 April 2013 11:02 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »

At just 22, Emma Roberts (“It's Kind of a Funny Story,” “The Art of Getting By,” “Celeste and Jesse Forever”) is about the same age her aunt Julia was when she shot to stardom with the iconic hit “Pretty Woman.” But times have changed, and in Emma’s latest rom-com — Scott Coffey’s “Adult World,” which premiered this week at the 2013 Tribeca Film Festival — she plays not a hooker with a heart of gold, but a virginal Syracuse graduate. Roberts is Amy, a post-collegiate aspiring poet who lives in snowy upstate New York with her parents; what she lacks in life experience she makes up for in pluck and aspiration. Her inability to be self-sufficient will feel familiar to a lot of 20-somethings, as today’s economy has created a state of delayed adulthood; coming-of-age so rarely happens at 18 anymore. When Amy’s parents pull the financial plug on her dreams »

Tribeca 2013 Review: Adult World, An Obnoxious, Self-Consciously Quirky Would-Be Comedy

24 April 2013 8:30 AM, PDT | Twitch | See recent Twitch news »

Like most other festivals, the Tribeca Film Festival is filled with films good, bad, and mediocre, but the nadir of my cinematic experiences here so far is certainly Scott Coffey's Adult World, a would-be comedy and self-described "satire" that is as grating and obnoxious as the performance by Emma Roberts at its center. There's hardly an actual human character to be found here; it's practically all broad caricature with people reduced to single character traits. There is exactly one redeeming facet to this film which saves it from being completely unbearable, but I'll elaborate on that later.Adult World introduces us to its heroine Amy (Emma Roberts) in its opening scene - a nod to Harold and Maude - in which, after sighing to her Sylvia...
