Watch: Cannes Clips Including 'Zulu' With Orlando Bloom & Forest Whitaker, Claire Denis' 'Bastards,' Jia Zhangke's 'A Touch of Sin' & More

3 hours ago | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »

To the outsider, the Cannes Film Festival can be a nebulous thing. Even if you know the filmmaker or the cast, sometimes you need more context than a review to give you a sort of firmer grasp of the shape, texture and tone of a movie. Clips from the festival are landing left and right, so we thought we'd grab a smattering and ground you a little deeper than some of the reviews and pictures your may or may not have seen. So here we go.  The first clip is a featurette from "Zulu," the official Closing Film of Cannes this year, that brings together some interesting talent for what seems to be a hard-boiled crime tale. Directed by Jérôme Salle ("Largo Winch" and "Anthony Zimmer," which was later remade as "The Tourist" with Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie) "Zulu" stars Orlando Bloom and Forest Whitaker as a couple of »

Jamie Lee Curtis: Angelina Jolie is a 'heroine'

14 May 2013 10:01 PM, PDT | Monsters and Critics | See recent Monsters and Critics news »

Jamie Lee Curtis thinks Angelina Jolie is a 'heroine' for going public about her preventative double mastectomy. The 54-year-old actress has echoed supportive comments made by high profile breast cancer survivors Sheryl Crow, Kylie Minogue and Giuliana Rancic, and praised 'The Tourist' star, 37, for opening up about her drastic decision to have both of her breasts removed to reduce her risk of developing breast cancer after managing to go through the surgery in private. In an opinion piece for the Huffington Post, titled 'Freedom of Choice, Freedom of Privacy', Jamie wrote: 'Ms. Jolie is a heroine to many. Me included. 'She is brave and bold and challenging. She challenges the world with her thoughts and »

Angelina Jolie and Son Maddox Land at Lax

13 April 2013 11:11 AM, PDT | E! Online | See recent E! Online news »

Following Angelina Jolie's philanthropic trip to London earlier this week, the stunning Oscar winner headed back to the States. The Tourist star was spotted leaving Lax Friday with her 11-year-old son Maddox in tow looking chic in black leather pants, boots, shades and an oversized sweater. Maddox echoed his mom's all-black duds, sporting a black skull-emblazoned sweatshirt, black pants, shades and a black cap. Jolie attended the G8 Foreign Ministers meeting in London Thursday to address the issue of wartime sexual violence and announce that the G8 nations would be providing an additional $36 million in funding for efforts to prevent sexual violence. Meanwhile, Jolie's hubby-to-be, »

'Zulu' Starring Forest Whitaker and Orlando Bloom to Close 2013 Cannes Film Festival

12 April 2013 8:08 AM, PDT | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »

This is interesting, unless my memory is faulty, I don't remember the closing night film for the Cannes Film Festival ever being announced prior to the line-up being announced. This year the 2013 Cannes Film Festival line-up will be announced on Thursday, April 18 and we already know Baz Luhrmann's The Great Gatsby will open the fest, but now Deadline is reporting Jerome Salle's Zulu starring Forest Whitaker and Orlando Bloom will serve as the closing night feature. Zulu is based on the novel by Caryl Ferey and was shot in South Africa. Taking place in Cape Town, Whitaker and Bloom play cops investigating the murder of two women. Here's a lengthier synopsis: As a child, Ali Neuman (Whitaker) narrowly escaped being murdered by Inkhata, a militant political party at war with Nelson Mandela's African National Congress. Only he and his mother survived the carnage of those years. But as with many survivors, »

American Horror Story Murder House Ghost Cast in Johnny Depp’s Transcendence

29 March 2013 1:00 PM, PDT | ScifiMafia | See recent ScifiMafia news »

We told you about this top secret movie movie project titled, Transcendence earlier this month when Rebecca Hall (Iron Man 3) joined Johnny Depp and Paul Bettany (The Tourist), and the smallest plot we still have to go on is that Johnny Depp is playing some sort of scientist who uploads his mind to a computer.

Well the mystery may continue but the casting goes on with American Horror Story’s deliciously neurotic Hayden played by Kate Mara (who has also most recently been in Netflix’s House of Cards) coming into the Transcendence circle of trust. This latest casting and news of a “big budget” is according to Vulture.

We will keep you posted on Transcendence starring Johnny Depp, Paul Bettany, Rebecca Hall and Kate Mara which is slated to hit theaters April 25, 2014. »

Casting News for the Mysterious Transcendence

7 March 2013 8:00 AM, PST | ScifiMafia | See recent ScifiMafia news »

Very little is known about the movie Transcendence so far but the production team and actors are starting to take their places. The first and most notable name attached to the film is actor Johnny Depp who will be playing the lead. He’s reunited with his co-star from The Tourist, Paul Bettany. These men have most recently been joined by actress Rececca Hall (Iron Man 3).

The plot for the film is not being released (even a little), but a tiny whisper from Digital Spy makes me think it’s a perfect fit for us.

Although plot details have so far been kept under wraps, it is thought that Transcendence will involve Depp’s character uploading his mind onto a supercomputer with the potential to think for itself.

Sounds awesome. Those actors and that whisper are a complete winner for me, but I look forward to hearing an official plot. »

A new Tomb Raider film – can they raise the dead?

7 March 2013 3:51 AM, PST | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »

Previous attempts to make Lara Croft films were meritless, but now the game's had a reboot, there could be lessons learned

Now that Lara Croft – everyone's favourite 1990s, triangular-headed, uncomfortably-objectified archaeologist – has been reborn in a new Tomb Raider game, it is only a matter of time before someone decides to reinvigorate the bad old movie franchise as well. And so, with a heavy heart, I'm here to announce that a new Tomb Raider movie is already in its early stages.

According to Cvg, Crystal Dynamics is working with Gk Films to bring Croft and her inexplicable fondness for raiding tombs back to the big screen.

Anyone who's ever tried to sit through either of the previous two Tomb Raider films will no doubt feel a surge of anxiety. 2001's Lara Croft: Tomb Raider and 2003's Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life were, without any exaggeration, completely devoid of merit. »

Blu-ray, DVD Release: Jack Reacher

5 March 2013 1:36 PM, PST | Disc Dish | See recent Disc Dish news »

Digital Release: April 23, 2013, Blu-ray & DVD Release Date: May 7, 2013

Price: DVD $29.99, Blu-ray/DVD Combo $39.99

Studio: Paramount Home Entertainment

Perhaps the busiest actor in Hollywood, Tom Cruise (Collateral) got off his couch to produce and star in thriller Jack Reacher.

Based on the ninth novel in the series by author Lee Child, the action movie tells the story of the investigation of five murders by an expert sniper.

The crimes are blamed on former military sniper Barr (Joseph Sikora, Safe), but his lawyer (Rosamund Pike, Barney’s Version) partners with the mysterious Jack Reacher (Cruise) to find out what really happened.

Richard Jenkins (Friends With Benefits), Robert Duvall (Phenomenon) and Werner Herzog (Cave of Forgotten Dreams) also star in the film, which was written and directed by Christopher McQuarrie (The Tourist).

PG-13-rated Jack Reacher grossed $80 million when it was in theaters, appealing more to moviegoers than critics. Seattle Times critic Moira MacDonald »

Top Gear's Africa special overtakes Dancing on Ice with almost 6m viewers | TV ratings – 3 March

Good night for BBC also sees new BBC1 9pm drama Mayday beating ITV's Mr Selfridge

BBC2's Top Gear Africa Special, in which Clarkson and the boys attempted to find the source of the Nile, got the better of ITV's ailing Dancing on Ice on Sunday night with almost 6 million viewers.

The BBC had a good evening all round, with new BBC1 9pm drama Mayday beating ITV's Mr Selfridge, and Call the Midwife sailing along serenely with more than 9 million viewers.

The Top Gear Africa special, the first instalment of a two-parter to round off the current series, averaged 5.7 million viewers and a 19.6% audience share in the 8pm hour.

This audience included 1.1 million watching the BBC HD simulcast – a frisky figure for a channel that has otherwise struggled to establish itself, featuring as it does a mishmash of programming from all the corporation's TV channels other than BBC1 (which has »

Hopefully Not 'The Tourist 2': Paul Bettany Joins Wally Pfister's 'Transcendence' With Johnny Depp

28 February 2013 3:30 PM, PST | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »

Paul Bettany has had it a bit rough the past few years, famously turning down "The King's Speech" (oops) and starring in a handful of forgettable movies like the Charles Darwin flick "Creation," and stuff like "Legion" and "Priest." He had a nice turn in "Margin Call," but mostly he's been better known of late as the voice of Jarvis, Tony Stark's AI butler, in the Marvel movies. He's a talented dude who has always seemed to just keep missing a leap into bigger and better things, but now his time may have finally arrived. Bettany has joined Wally Pfister's secretive, and highly anticipated "Transcendence" with Johnny Depp. Of course, the pair both starred in the pretty awful "The Tourist" (as we detailed today in our 5 Great & 5 Disappointing English-Language Debuts By Foreign-Language Directors features) but we'd wager they're on better ground here. The film will tell the tale of »

Haters Gonna Hate: Twilight Breaking Dawn 2 Leads Razzie Noms for Worst in Film

9 January 2013 10:22 AM, PST | kidspickflicks | See recent kidspickflicks news »

Every year on the day before the Academy Award nominations announced their nominees for the best in film, the Razzies announce their list of nominees for the worst in film. Increasingly, though, it's become a place for haters to hate. Additionally, the nominations aren't productive, they seem to be out to humiliate actors. For instance, it's incredibly unjust to nominate The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2 (the best of the series) at all, but certainly not for acting or screenplay. The screenplay, which is adapted from the Stephenie Myer book, actually added in one of the most brilliant twists in modern day moviemaking. As moviegoers, we've all been disappointed from time to time in the acting work by an esteemed actor; for instance, I felt the great Sigourney Weaver phoned in her performance in Avatar which brought the quality of the film down. But to criticize an actor for  performing »
