'Assassin's Creed: The Movie' for 2015 release

7 hours ago | Digital Spy | See recent Digital Spy - Movie News news »

Assassin's Creed: The Movie has been given a release date.

Twentieth Century Fox has scheduled the film for a May 22, 2015 opening, IGN reports.

Michael Fassbender is currently attached to the project and is expected to produce and star, while Michael Lesslie is scripting the adaptation of the Ubisoft video game franchise. A director for the movie has yet to be announced.

The Prometheus star first became attached to the role last July and was described as the "first choice" by Ubisoft Motion Pictures CEO Jean-Julien Baronnet.

"Michael is an extremely smart, talented, versatile and committed actor," said Baronnet.

The games' storyline follows a bartender who learns that he is a descendant of famous assassins after being kidnapped by the Knights Templar. The action takes place during the Crusades and Renaissance.

The latest game in the series, Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag, will be released on October 29 in North America and on November 1 in Europe. »

Assassin’s Creed Movie Nails A Release Date

9 hours ago | We Got This Covered | See recent We Got This Covered news »

It was around this time last year when we first heard news about the Assassin’s Creed movie. Coming off the back of X-Men: First Class and Prometheus, Michael Fassbender was also confirmed to don the coveted white robes as the central assassin. And now, courtesy of 20th Century Fox and New Regency – the two studios responsible for the big screen adaption – the film has been given a firm release date for May 22nd, 2015.

A Memorial Day weekend is an ambitious window to deploy a cinematic adaptation of Assassin’s Creed. Not to mention the rather infamous adage that filmmakers struggle to capture the essence of video games on the silver screen, but over the past few years, the latter stages of May have hosted blockbusters such as Pirates of the Caribbean: The World’s End which, incidentally, is the highest grossing film in that period. A bold decision, no doubt. »

Michael Fassbender's Assassin's Creed Film Gets a Release Date

10 hours ago | WorstPreviews.com | See recent Worst Previews news »

About a year ago, it was reported that Michael Fassbender (Prometheus, X-Men: First Class) signed on to produce and star in "Assassin's Creed," a big screen adaptation of Ubisoft's video game franchise. Ubisoft teamed up with New Regency and 20th Century Fox for the project. The plan was to have a director, cast and script by summer of 2013. English playwright Michael Lesslie was recently hired to write the script and now comes word that the film will be released on May 22nd, 2015 (Memorial Day weekend). That's a tricky release date, since it's only three weeks after "The Avengers 2," and while we have yet to get a release date for "Star Wars: Episode VII," it will likely hit theaters a week before Memorial Day weekend. "Assassin's Creed" revolves around a man (Fassbender) who learns his ancestors were trained assassins after he is kidnapped by a secret organization with ties to the Knights Templar, »

Michael Giacchino talks Scoring the Sequel in New Music Featurette for Star Trek Into Darkness

17 May 2013 1:30 AM, PDT | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »

Having arrived in UK theatres last weekend, J.J. Abrams’ anticipated blockbuster sequel, Star Trek Into Darkness, has now officially been released into the Us multiplex, and is reportedly on track for a nine-figure four-day opening across the Atlantic.

The early reviews and the reception from our audiences have been very positive – you can read our review here – and we’re looking forward to seeing how it fares at the box office in the States this weekend.

Adding to all the brilliant things we’ve seen from the film already, Paramount have released a new music featurette in which composer Michael Giacchino talks a little about scoring Abrams’ blockbuster.

When the crew of the Enterprise is called back home, they find an unstoppable force of terror from within their own organization has detonated the fleet and everything it stands for, leaving our world in a state of crisis.

With a personal score to settle, »

Star Trek writer talks about Man of Steel and the planned Justice League movie

16 May 2013 11:20 PM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »

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 »

Evil Found Underground in Scintilla

16 May 2013 11:11 PM, PDT | DreadCentral.com | See recent Dread Central news »

Who knows what horrors are contained within the Earth. Unless you have one of those nifty Total Recall remake elevators, there's just no way to know. Luckily for us monster movie fans, some poor souls are about to find out for themselves.

Screen Daily reports that Av Pictures’ Cannes slate includes in-demand sci-fi thriller Scintilla, which eOne has picked up for multiple territories. Billy O’Brien directs the story of a disparate group of mercenaries hired to a lead a special unit deep into a former Soviet state to retrieve data from an underground militia base. John Lynch, Morjana Alaoui, Ned Denehey, Beth Winslet, and Antonia Thomas star in the thriller, now in post-producution.

The production designer is Skyfall and Prometheus art director Paul Inglis. Av has a promo in Cannes.

Also new to Av’s slate is horror Let Us Prey (previous story here), currently in pre-production. Liam Cunningham »

Damon Lindelof Talks Star Trek Into Darkness, the Editing Process, Why They Changed the Order of the First Two Scenes, Trek 3, and More

16 May 2013 3:11 PM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »

With J.J. Abrams Star Trek Into Darkness now playing around the world, we recently landed an exclusive phone interview with Damon Lindelof.  During the interview, the Into Darkness screenwriter/producer talked about making the sequel, the length of the first cut, deleted scenes, how the beginning of the film changed during the editing process, whether an extended cut of Into Darkness will be on the Blu-ray, when a third film could possibly get made, and a lot more.  Hit the jump for what he had to say. Question:  What have the last few days been like for you?  This is a hardcore press junket. Damon Lindelof:  First off, when you’re a writer and you’re a producer, traditionally the junkets are really focused on the beautiful people and nobody wants to talk to you.  But I think when you get involved in this type of sci-fi legend, whether »

Pacific Rim Trailer: Go Big Or Go Extinct

16 May 2013 11:26 AM, PDT | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »

Forget "go big or go home." Visionary filmmaker Guillermo del Toro raises the stakes to "Go big or go extinct" for his upcoming summer smash Pacific Rim. Maybe you know this ambitious science-fiction adventure involves giant extraterrestrial beasts waging war against gargantuan robots, and that was enough to get you pumped. Maybe del Toro's name alone was enough based on fond memories of Hellboy or Pan's Labyrinth. If not, perhaps a cast that includes Prometheus' Idris Elba, It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia's Charlie Day, Star Trek's Clifton Collins Jr., Hellboy's Ron Perlman, Sons of Anarchy's Charlie Hunnam, and The Brothers Bloom's Rinko Kikuchi, was tantalizing enough to earn this release a spot on your summer musts list. But if you actually need a breakdown of how this movie's world works, the latest trailer is kind enough to break it down. Pacific Rim is set »

Damon Lindelof Discusses Justice League, Star Wars and Tomorrowland

16 May 2013 10:25 AM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »

I enjoy Damon Lindelof's work. I like that he's a geek like the rest of us that we can relate to, only he's on the inside and gets to tell fun stories and make really cool movies. That's one of the reasons why I respect his thoughts on things going on in the film business, and why I enjoy the things he works on. 

As you know, Warner Bros. has had a very hard time bringing Justice League to the big screen. In fact, they've had a hard time adapting any of their DC characters (other than Batman) as a feature film. It looks like they might have gotten Superman right with Man of Steel, but that has yet to be seen. 

During a recent interview with THR, Lindelof was asked how he would solve the "Justice League problem" if Warner Bros. reached out to him for help. This »

Trevor Hogg chats with visual effects supervisors Christopher Townsend, Erik Nash, Bryan Grill, Alessandro Cioffi, Guy WilliamsMatt Dessero, Venti Hristova and Vincent Cirelli; animation supervisor Simone Kraus, previsualization supervisor Todd Constantine and postvisualization supervisor Gerardo Ramirez about their work on Iron Man 3.  Beware there are spoilers....

“Marvel is a fun and passionate group to work with,” states Christopher Townsend who went from being the visual effects supervisor responsible for Captain America: The First Avenger (2011) to Iron Man 3 (2013).  “Their type of films allow for visual effects to be played in a varied playground.  It’s great.” The native of Britain jokes, “I keep on coming back for more punishment!”  A change behind the camera took place in the third instalment of the franchise which launched the Marvel Universe into the realm of cinematic blockbusters.  “Marvel is always keen of eyeing and working with not fans or run of »

This weekend, Star Trek Into Darkness hits theaters and the common consensus among reviewers seems to be that Jj Abrams' adaptation of the beloved series is even better this time around. The thing we're most excited about, of course, is Zoe Saldana's return as a young Nyota Uhura. Apparently Saldana's role is much bigger this time around, which means the Star Trek sequel is a can't miss for us!

Of course, lesbian and bisexual women are not strangers to the world of science fiction. In fact, we often find better representation in the fantasy realm than in any other genre. And even when we don't find queer women to swoon over, we find powerful women to root for. »

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

15 May 2013 7:40 AM, PDT | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »

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 »

Damon Lindelof didn't want anyone to know he helped rewrite the ending of World War Z

15 May 2013 7:25 AM, PDT | JoBlo.com | See recent JoBlo news »

Very few feel the ire of fanboys quite like Damon Lindelof. Stemming from his days writing on Lost to last year's Prometheus, Lindelof's name immediately pisses off a large portion of movie fans on the Internet. When it was reported that he was being brought in to help fix the ending of World War Z, the floodgates opened and a million rage faces cried out in unison. Personally, I like Lindelof and think he works very well within the J.J. Abrams universe. But, I may be in the »

Damon Lindelof on World War Z and Star Wars Episode VII

14 May 2013 8:57 AM, PDT | Den of Geek | See recent Den of Geek news »

News Glen Chapman 15 May 2013 - 08:05

Damon Lindelof has been chatting about his experiences on World War Z and his potential involvement with Star Wars...

Damon Lindelof is one of a growing band of screenwriters who needs no introduction, not least because of how divisive some of his work - Prometheus, Lost - has been.

His next project is World War Z, the adaptation of Max Brooks' excellent book which may prove to be one of this summer's biggest gambles. The footage we've seen of the film so far seems to take elements from the source, but the biggest connection between the two will likely be their shared title.

In a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Lindelof has been chatting about World War Z, specifically receiving a call from Brad Pitt requesting that he rework the ending to a script already rewritten by Matthew Michael Carnahan.

Trailer for James Franco's As I Lay Dying

14 May 2013 7:00 AM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »

Here's the first trailer for James Franco's new film As I Lay Dying, which he not only stars in, but also wrote and directed. The film is based on William Faulkner's classic novel, and I imagine this wasn't an easy book to adapt. The story is told in a "stream of consciousness writing style by 15 different narrators in 59 chapters. It is the story of the death of Addie Bundren and her family's quest and motivations—noble or selfish—to honor her wish to be buried in the town of Jefferson."

Franco is a multitalented guy. He has dabbled in all things entertainment, such as big blockbuster films, low budget art house films, art projects, teaching, writing novels, and more. I'm sure he welcomed the challenge of adapting this novel, and it looks like it could prove to be a great film. 

Set in 1930s Mississippi, the movie also stars Danny McBride, »

James Franco's 'As I Lay Dying' trailer: Depression-era Mississippi and Tim Blake Nelson

13 May 2013 7:09 PM, PDT | EW - Inside Movies | See recent EW.com - Inside Movies news »

When James Franco, the sometimes over committed but admirably ambitious multihyphenate, claimed that he was going to direct an adaptation of As I Lay Dying, William Faulkner’s classic novel about a family’s journey to honor the request of their dying mother, we were cautiously optimistic.

The multi-character, stream-of-consciousness novel seemed out of reach for any director. But Franco has given it a go, and assembled an enviable cast including Danny McBride (Tropic Thunder), Tim Blake Nelson (O Brother, Where Art Thou?) and Logan Marshall-Green (Prometheus). Though it’s too early to judge the outcome, we finally got a »
