Gary Oldman to direct a biopic of Eadweard Muybridge

17 June 2013 6:27 AM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »

Gary Oldman's (The Dark Knight Rises) directorial debut was the powerful drama Nil by Mouth in 1997, starring Ray Winstone (The Sweeney) and Kathy Burke (Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy). Now there are reports that for his follow-up he is planning to direct a biopic of the film pioneer Eadweard Muybridge titled Flying Horse.

Muybridge developed technological advances in photography and motion-capturing imagery. The film will focus on the love affair between his wife Flora and the theatre critic Harry Larkyns, who was killed by Muybridge.

Oldman has written the script and is eyeing Ralph Fiennes (Skyfall) and Benedict Cumberbatch (Star Trek Into Darkness) to play Muybridge and Larkyns. He might also appear himself, as the district attorney who prosecuted Muybridge.

Flying Horse is scheduled to begin production early next year and will be produced by Oldman's manager Douglas Urbanski. Oldman can next be seen in the upcoming thriller Paranoia with Liam Hemsworth and Harrison Ford. »

Snabba Cash (Easy Money) 3 Trailer Locks And Loads

13 June 2013 10:30 AM, PDT | Twitch | See recent Twitch news »

Before he became RoboCop it was Swedish crime film Snabba Cash (Easy Money) that launched Joel Kinnaman to stardom. Immediately snapped up by The Weinstein Company and prepped for Us remake - reportedly with Zac Efron taking on the Kinnaman role - it took rather a long time for the first Snabba Cash to hit Us release but the balance that film strikes between action and riveting character work remains impressive today. The first Snabba Cash also happened to earn a great big bag of money throughout Europe which has meant - of course - sequels. Based on a trilogy of novels by Jens Lapidus, a second film followed quickly after the first and now a third - titled Life Deluxe - is about to...

Keaton Returns To Superheroics With First Set Pics Of ‘Birdman’

3 June 2013 11:31 AM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »

These first set pics of Birdman show former Batman Michael Keaton being stalked by a superhero that wont be appearing in The Avengers or Justice League anytime soon. 21 Grams, Amores Perros, and Babel director Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu’s latest offering sees Michael Keaton as an actor once famed for his portrayal of a famous superhero (sound familiar?). Keaton’s actor sets about staging a play based on a poem by Raymond Chandler, but can he shake off the shadow of his prior work?

It’s about damn time that Keaton got back into a leading role. With a scene-stealing part in The Other Guys and a role in the upcoming Robocop reboot, he is gradually getting back out there. With a director such as Inarritu, there’ s no limit to what Keaton could bring to the table in this exciting offering.

The pictures below show a rather impressively suited hero following Keaton around, »

'Fast & Furious': Which characters should return to the franchise? And which actors would you add in?

29 May 2013 7:00 AM, PDT | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »

The first three films in the Fast & Furious franchise had almost nothing to do with each other. Cars were driven quickly, usually by radically different groups of people. In a weird twist, the next three Fast movies suddenly became rigidly focused on continuity, uniting the disparate Fast casts into a big old-fashioned Super Adventure Squad. At the same time, the franchise also added in Dwayne Johnson (a.k.a. The Rock), who brought his own action-star flavor to the series. Well, the conclusion of Fast & Furious 6 — Spoiler Alert, natch — features the franchise’s neatest continuity trick yet, while also introducing »

Samuel L. Jackson To Get Barely Lethal With Hailee Steinfeld

16 May 2013 4:49 AM, PDT | We Got This Covered | See recent We Got This Covered news »

Blimey, Samuel L. Jackson certainly likes helping out the young ‘uns. This newest project, Barely Lethal, once again has him cast in the role of mentor. He’s now in the final stages of negotiation to star in the latest from Brett Ratner’s Rat Entertainment banner.

True Grit star and Oscar-nominated Hailee Steinfeld is the only other big name attached so far. She will play the girl in question under Jackson’s tutelage. As a 16-year old international assassin tired of the killing game, she gives it all up to become a normal teenager. After faking her own death, she enrols as a senior in high school. Surviving high school proves to be more of a challenge than she bargained for though.

Jackson is to act as Steinfeld’s teacher who trains her “in the program.”  Pegged as a teenage comedy, the film comes from an original script by newcomer John D’Arco. »

15 May 2013 6:03 PM, PDT | MovieWeb | See recent MovieWeb news »

Samuel L. Jackson is in final talks to star in Barely Lethal. We first reported on the project last month, when Hailee Steinfeld signed on.

The story centers on Megan (Hailee Steinfeld), a 16-year-old girl who has been raised at an elite boarding school that trains teenage assassins. She decides to fake her own death and enroll at a local high school, to get a taste of "normal" high school life, which she soon learns is not all it's cracked up to be. Samuel L. Jackson will play Megan's mentor and trainer.

Kyle Newman (Fanboys) is directing from a screenplay by John D'Arco, with Brett Ratner producing alongside John Cheng, Ted Hartley, Vanessa Coifman, and Sukee Chew. No production schedule was given.

Samuel L. Jackson lends his voice to the DreamWorks Animation comedy Turbo this summer, and he will next be seen in RoboCop.
