Prometheus 2 Started Casting, Rik Barnett in Talks for Major Role?
20 May 2013 4:13 AM, PDT | WorstPreviews.com | See recent Worst Previews news »
When Ridley Scott brought on Damon Lindelof to take a look at the script for "Prometheus," the duo completely reworked it to make a story that takes the franchise in a completely different direction. Scott and Lindelof also came up with all the ideas that will be used for a "Prometheus" sequel. Even though 20th Century Fox has greenlit "Prometheus 2," we have yet to hear about any official progress. But now comes word that Scott is already casting and has met numerous times with Rik Barnett for a role that could be connected to Elizabeth Shaw (Noomi Rapace). Barnett is an English actor who's mostly unknown. His last role was in the 2010 independent comedy, "Rebels Without a Clue," which barely got a release. Since Scott is taking time to meet with him, it's safe to say that his "Prometheus 2" role will be a major one. Even though several sources have apparently confirmed this, »

Cinema’s Greatest Villains: The 1970′s
19 May 2013 4:43 PM, PDT | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »
Recent hot cinema topics such as the portrayal of the Mandarin character in Shane Black’s Iron Man 3 and speculations about what classic Star Trek villain Benedict Cumberbatch’s character in J.J Abrams’ Star Trek: Into Darkness was modeled after leading up to the film’s release, among others, underline the importance of great villains in genre cinema.
Creating a great cinematic villain is a difficult goal that makes for an incredibly rewarding and memorable viewer experience when it is achieved.
We’ll now take a look at the greatest film villains. Other writing on this subject tends to be a bit unfocused, as “greatest villain” articles tend to mix live-action human villains with animated characters and even animals. Many of these articles also lack a cohesive quality as they attempt to cover too much ground at once by spanning all of film history.
This article focuses on the 1970’s, »

Has Prometheus 2 Already Started Casting?
19 May 2013 3:45 PM, PDT | ComicBookMovie.com | See recent ComicBookMovie news »
So any of you guys remember all of those rumors of Prometheus 2 beign stuck in development hell? At first we heard that Prometheus 2 was struggling to find a story, which was quickly debunked by Prometheus co-scribe Damon Lindelof, when he personally put the rumor to rest. Apparently the Facebook page Prometheus posted an article which says that Ridley Scott has met plenty of times with English actor Rik Barnett. According to the source[Who claims that he is from the sequel's production] the actor will play a character who could be connected to Noomi Rapace's character (Elizabeth Shaw). Now this news is to be taken with a grain of salt since no confirmation has been given by 20thCenturyFox. Now the question is who is Rik Barnett!? Well, He is an English actor who won »
Have Ubisoft And Fox Really Dated Their 'Assassin's Creed' Movie For May 2015? [Update With Confirmation From Ubisoft]
19 May 2013 2:30 PM, PDT | MTV Multiplayer | See recent MTV Multiplayer news »
[Update: This morning, a Ubisoft rep confirmed that indeed, the May 22, 2015 date is correct, putting their "Assassin's Creed" movie square in the big budget summer blockbuster free-for-all]
I'm trying to find some independent verification (and I have a mail out to Ubisoft to confirm), but a lot of sites are reporting that the Michael Fassbender-starring "Assassin's Creed" will be holding on to the Memorial Day 2015 release date.
It all stems from a release date posted on Box Office Mojo, which alleges that the feature based on the bestselling Ubisoft franchise will be out on May 22, 2015. That would put the still director-less "Assassin's Creed" within range of J.J. Abrams' "Episode VII" and Joss Whedon's "The Avengers 2." Now "Avengers 2" has a confirmed release date of May 1, leaving the Marvel franchise the better part of the month to earn all of the world's money before another blockbuster comes along, but would Ubisoft want to launch its first independently-developed film so close to the Disney/Marvel 800-lb gorilla? »

'Assassin's Creed: The Movie' for 2015 release
18 May 2013 7:45 AM, PDT | 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
18 May 2013 5:47 AM, PDT | 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
18 May 2013 4:12 AM, PDT | 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

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.

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 »

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 Williams, Matt 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 »
