Steven Spielberg To Executive Produce 'Halo' TV Series For Xbox Live
21 May 2013 12:22 PM, PDT | Indiewire Television | See recent Indiewire Television news »
Given that there's original content on streaming services Amazon Prime, Hulu and Netflix, it was only a matter of time before the game consoles got in on the action. Today during an overlong and somewhat confusing press conference for the new Xbox system (unimaginatively dubbed Xbox One,) it was announced that Steven Spielberg would be exec-producing an original television series for Xbox's Xbox Live streaming service based on the phenomenally popular series of "Halo" videogames. The series will be produced in conjunction with game studio 343 Studios. Way back in 2005, work began on a "Halo" feature film, originally written by "28 Days Later" scribe Alex Garland (and subsequently reworked by D.B. Weiss and Josh Olson, both in an effort to subdue the astronomical budget). The film was going to be a co-production between Fox and Universal, executive produced by Peter Jackson and directed by eventual "District 9" filmmaker Neil Blomkamp (he later »

Steven Spielberg Will Produce a 'Halo' TV Series for Xbox
21 May 2013 12:18 PM, PDT | Indiewire Television | See recent Indiewire Television news »
There was a well publicized attempt to bring Microsoft's incredibly successful sci-fi video game series "Halo" to the big screen a few years ago. Alex Garland ("The Beach") wrote a script, Peter Jackson was going to be the executive producer and Neill Blomkamp ("District 9") was signed on to direct. The project fell apart, though fans have continued to hold out hope of seeing Master Chief and the world of the game in film form. They may not be getting their wish, but it looks like they're going to get something close. At a press event in Redmond, Wa today, Microsoft unveiled the Xbox One, the latest in its line of game consoles turned multipurpose media platform. And, in accordance with the evolution of the device, which now aims to be the "ultimate all-in-one home entertainment system," Microsoft revealed plans to begin rolling out original series.

Steven Spielberg to Produce Live-Action Halo TV Series
21 May 2013 11:33 AM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
Microsoft unveiled the Xbox One today, and embedded in its bounty of announcements relating to the new console was the exciting news that Steven Spielberg is developing and will produce a live-action TV series based on the popular Halo franchise. Microsoft has been trying to get a big screen iteration of Halo off the ground for years, with Peter Jackson previously producing the feature film effort that Neill Blomkamp was poised to direct. Things went sour when Blomkamp’s vision for the film didn’t jibe with Microsoft’s strict rules regarding how the franchise was to be handled, but it worked out alright with Blomkamp instead making his directorial debut with the stellar 2009 sci-fi pic District 9. Now it appears that Microsoft will go it alone with regards to a narrative Halo effort, and they’ve got Steven Spielberg on their side. Hit the jump for more. This isn »

21 May 2013 11:15 AM, PDT | MTV Movies Blog | See recent MTV Movies Blog news »
The entire gaming community was anticipating today's big announcement from Microsoft, which unveiled its new Xbox One gaming console, but the project that has everyone talking was one that no one saw coming.
As a part of their big presentation, Microsoft announced a "Halo" television series that will be produced by Steven Spielberg. The sci-fi action franchise has seemed poised for live-action adaptation since it first hit shelves in 2001, but this is the first time fans will get to see the Spartans outside of a few well-produced ads.
Learn more after the jump!
There's no word on how this series will be brought to your screen. One of the biggest aspects of the Xbox One that Microsoft touted during its hour-long press conference today was the easy of switching between gaming and live television with the use of your voice and Kinnect.
It's possible that Xbox One will offer original video content similar to Netflix, »

Terrific First Full-Length Trailer for Europa Report with Sharlto Copley
20 May 2013 5:00 AM, PDT | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »
Back in November last year, we saw a very intriguing first teaser trailer for The Europa Report, a sci-fi thriller movie led by District 9’s Sharlto Copley.
At the time, we weren’t sure exactly when to expect it to hit theatres. But with Magnet since setting the film’s release date for this summer, hitting VOD in June and theatres in August, the first full-length trailer has been released, and it has us even more intrigued.
A unique blend of documentary, alternative history and science fiction thriller, Europa Report follows a contemporary mission to Jupiter’s moon Europa to investigate the possible existence of alien life within our solar system. When unmanned probes suggest that a hidden ocean could exist underneath Europa’s icy surface and may contain single-celled life, Europa Ventures, a privately funded space exploration company, sends six of the best astronauts from around the world »

Space Remains Dangerous in First Trailer for Sharlto Copley’s Europa Report
17 May 2013 11:35 AM, PDT | Beyond Hollywood | See recent Beyond Hollywood news »
Sheesh. When did space get so dangerous? First Sandra Bullock and George Clooney get lost in space in “Gravity”, an astronaut is being trapped on Mars, and now a trip to one of Jupiter’s moons goes completely awry. See, this is why I never enlisted in the space program when I was younger (even though I would have totally been accepted if I had). Who needs the hassle, am I right? Anyhoo, for those of you still daydreaming about going into outer space, check out the latest “lost in space” movie, Sebastián Cordero’s “Europa Report”, starring “District 9′s” Sharlto Copley and an International crew of actors. My guess is, something goes wrong. Terribly, terribly wrong. (I could be wrong, of course.)

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 »
‘Elysium’ Viral Website Launches: Can You Secure A Place Off Earth?
16 May 2013 3:42 AM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »
They’re been teasing this website longer than you can say something long but now, finally, the slightly creepy Elysium viral campaign website has launched! If you’re not sure what I mean by viral campaign, it’s like a mix of movie marketing that also starts to make the world from the movie real. Well, as real as viably possible.
In this case, there’s an automated plastic-looking robot man who asks you questions to see if you can enter their unique and perfect Elysium world. If you fail though, or if you answer their questions in the wrong way, there’s a possibility you’ll never get off Earth (which is crumbling to pieces), and you will never experience the beauty and luxury of this so-called asylum called, quite aptly, Elysium.
If you still think I’m babbling nonsense, it’s for the new Neill Blomkamp (District 9) film starring Matt Damon, »

Top 10 games that should be movies – and their ideal directors

John Carpenter says he'd love to adapt the survival horror title – and surely there's room for Skyrim, Far Cry or Uncharted
"I would love to make Dead Space, I'll tell you that right now," said John Carpenter last week, adding the celebrated director, expert moustache cultivator and avid gamer to the the swelling ranks of reputable film-makers (ie those whose names aren't spelled "Paul Ws Anderson" or "Uwe Boll") who recognise games as another viable well of narrative inspiration – equal in richness, if not yet in popular reputation, to any other artform.
And it's difficult to envisage a director better suited or more qualified to interpret the dank corridors and squelchy, shambling horrors of the Usg Ishimura. The Thing, The Fog and Halloween clearly influenced Visceral's icky franchise, and Carpenter's ideas feeding back into a mythology they helped create gives a pleasing sense of symmetry. His skill with suspense and »

Starring Matt Damon, Jodie Foster, Sharlto Copley, Alice Braga and William Fichtner, Elysium is director Neill Blomkamp's first film after the critically acclaimed sci-fi thriller District 9 and scheduled to hit theaters August 9th. In the year 2159, two classes of people exist: the very wealthy "Coordinators," people who can afford bio-genetical engineering, who live on a pristine man-made space station called Elysium built by the Armadyne Corporation and the rest, who live on an overpopulated, ruined Earth. Secretary Rhodes, a hard government official, will stop at nothing to enforce anti-immigration laws and preserve the luxurious lifestyle of the citizens of Elysium. That doesn’t stop the people of Earth from trying to get in, by any means they can. When unlucky ex-con Max is backed »
