New cast photo for Snowpiercer

2 hours ago | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »

We're yet to see the first trailer for Joon-ho Bong's upcoming English language debut Snowpiercer (although we did get a few snippets of footage thanks to an international featurette), but to tide us over a new image has been released featuring several of the main players from the mysterious sci-fi, including Chris Evans (Captain America: The Winter Soldier), Ewen Bremner (Jack the Giant Slayer), Octavia Spencer (The Help), Kang-ho Song (The Good, the Bad, the Weird), Go Ah-sung (The Host) and Tilda Swinton (We Need to Talk About Kevin) - the latter of whom is sporting a shoe on her head:

Snowpiercer is based upon the French graphic novel  Le Transperceneige by Jacques Lob and Jean-Marc Rochette and takes place in an apocalyptic near-future, where an Ice Age has killed all life on Earth, save the for inhabitants of a train called the Snowpiercer. Also featuring in the cast »

Peabody Awards Honors TV At Its Best

19 hours ago | Variety - TV News | See recent Variety - TV News news »

Thirty-nine recipients of the 72nd Annual Peabody Awards will be honored May 20 at the Waldorf-Astoria in Gotham. The Peabodys, bestowed by the U. of Georgia’s Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication, cite the best in electronic media. Herewith are a few of the projects and people being honored.

The Smithsonian Channel’s “Mlk: The Assassination Tapes” couldn’t have been made if professors at Memphis State U., back in 1968, didn’t have the foresight to preserve the historic TV, radio and police-report tapes regarding the Martin Luther King assassination. Typically, those tapes were reused and hence lost.

“It was extraordinary to find this treasure trove,” says David Royle, exec VP of programming and production at the Smithsonian Channel. Equally extraordinary, filmmaker Tom Jennings “crafts a film from these tapes that is entirely dramatic and immediate, taking the reality that existed at the time and infusing it with drama and intensity. »

Julianne Moore Opens Up About Playing A Divorced Mom

16 May 2013 12:44 PM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

Cannes, France -- Julianne Moore sometimes identifies with the characters she plays but when it came to playing a bad mother in "What Maisie Knew," she couldn't relate.

In the recently released film, Moore portrays a rock-star mom going through a bitter divorce who's having trouble connecting to her 6-year-old daughter, Maisie.

The role couldn't have been farther from her heart. Moore, who has a 15-year-old son and 11-year-old daughter, said motherhood was something that came easily for her and a role she always craved since she was a little girl.

"I thought, `I don't know if I will get married, but I do want to have children,'" Moore said in an interview on the opening day of the Cannes Film Festival. "I said, `I'm going to have a boy and a girl.' You know, all those ridiculous fantasies that you have when you're 10 years old – for me, »

Two original comedies (but not 'Happy Endings') greenlit at USA

16 May 2013 9:55 AM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »

USA has picked up a pair original half-hour comedies to air alongside its big acquired series "Modern Family." It has not, however, made a move to revive "Happy Endings" following that show's cancellation by ABC.

Speculation has been running high for several weeks that USA would add "Happy Endings" to its roster if ABC dropped the show, but it didn't happen as part of USA's upfront announcements on Thursday (May 16). A report on Deadline says a pickup for "Happy Endings" is now "unlikely."

The two comedies USA did pick up are "Sirens," a show about an oddball group of EMTs in Chicago; and "Playing House," a female buddy comedy from Jessica St. Clair and Lennon Parham ("Best Friends Forever").

"Sirens" stars Michael Mosley ("Pan Am"), Kevin Daniels ("Modern Family"), Jessica McNamee ("The Vow") and Kevin Bigley ("Game Change"). "Rescue Me" creator-star Denis Leary and "Wedding Crashers" and "Traffic Light" writer »

USA Gets In The Comedy Game

16 May 2013 6:24 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

USA is getting in the comedy game with "Playing House" from Jessica St. Clair and Lennon Parham, and "Sirens" from Denis Leary and Bob Fisher.

The two half-hour comedies are the first for USA. "Sirens" and "Playing House" will debut in the first quarter of 2014. USA will begin airing "Modern Family" reruns on Tuesday, September 24 at 8 p.m. Et.

"This is the right time to be introducing half hour original comedies to the USA audience. With 'Modern Family' joining our line-up in the fall, we can leverage television’s most popular comedy to serve as a powerful launch pad for new originals in this genre," Chris McCumber, co-president of USA Network, said in a statement.

“Our new series come from some of the best comedic talent in the business, and reflect USA's style -- with great characters, strong execution and compelling storytelling," Jeff Wachtel, co-president of USA Network, »

The Butler has long been an early contender for the awards season later this year, with Lee Daniels’ biographical drama set for an October release by The Weinstein Company.

The Butler tells the story of a White House butler who served eight American presidents over three decades. The film traces the dramatic changes that swept American society during this time, from the civil rights movement to Vietnam and beyond, and »

The Education of Julianne Moore and Michael Angarano

1 May 2013 9:44 AM, PDT | The Hollywood Reporter | See recent The Hollywood Reporter news »

There's something about Julianne Moore and glasses that just speaks to casting directors. The actress was transformed into Sarah Palin by a pair of rimless, rectangular frames, winning an Emmy for her work in Game Change. A year later, she's behind a large, old school pair of specs for her role in The English Teacher, in which she plays Linda Sinclair, a character polar opposite of the former Alaskan governor: a well-read, spotlight-shunning educator with an aversion to the dramatic. A perpetually single bookworm and future cat lady, Linda's world is flipped when a former student (Michael Angarano)

Snowpiercer featurette delivers some first-look footage

30 April 2013 3:16 AM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »

South Korean filmmaker Joon-ho Bong (The Host, Mother) has is set to make his English language debut this year with Snowpiercer, and now we have our first look at footage from the upcoming film thanks to an international featurette. The video is without English subtitles, but it still gives us a good idea of what to expect from the the post-apocalyptic sci-fi ahead of its first trailer.

Snowpiercer is based upon the French graphic novel  Le Transperceneige by Jacques Lob and Jean-Marc Rochette and is set in the near-future, where an Ice Age has wiped out all life on the planet, save for the inhabitants of a train known as the Snowpiercer. The film features an all-star cast of acting talent, including Chris Evans (The Avengers), John Hurt (Immortals), Ed Harris (Game Change), Jamie Bell (The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn), Tilda Swinton (We Need to Talk About Kevin »

‘Behind the Candelabra’ starring Michael Douglas and Matt Damon – trailer review

22 April 2013 8:26 AM, PDT | The Scorecard Review | See recent Scorecard Review news »

Behind the Candelabra

Directed by: Steven Soderbergh

Starring: Michael Douglas, Matt Damon, Rob Lowe

Rating: Not Rated

Release Date: May 26, 2013 (HBO 9Pm/8c)

Trailer Score: 8/10

Thoughts by Tsr: The real takeaway from most recent HBO films seems to be the performances. Al Pacino in his pair of murderer biopics, Toby Jones as Alfred Hitchcock, Claire Danes winning all the awards for Temple Grandin, and Julianne Moore as you-know-who in Game Change were what most talked about. A distinct directorial style tends to be an afterthought. Well, we should have expected that to change when Steven Soderbergh stepped up and took his Liberace film to HBO. Sure, Michael Douglas as the flamboyant showman is a standout, but this trailer is distinctly Soderbergh. And that’s a very good thing.

Soderbergh is one of my favorite directors, so any time he has a new film coming out it’s a big deal. »

Ben Stiller's Secret New Project

21 April 2013 7:15 PM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

Ben Stiller and Jay Roach have known each other since first working together on "Meet the Parents" in 2000, and those 13 years of friendship made the pair's conversation at the Tribeca Film Festival on Sunday afternoon just that: a conversation. As part of the Tribeca Talks: Directors' Series, Stiller and Roach, both directors, discussed all matter of moviemaking and seemed to come to one unavoidable conclusion.

"It's really hard to get most movies made," Stiller said about the current state of the industry. "Especially independent films, and even just regular, mid-range budgeted dramas. The genre movies and sequels are obviously what becomes the thing."

Which is what makes Stiller's newest film such an anomaly. The 47-year-old directs and stars in the upcoming 20th Century Fox film "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty," an adaptation of the James Thurber short story of the same name. That work, which was originally published »

TV Academy Shakes Up The Emmys

19 April 2013 1:09 PM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

Los Angeles — A TV miniseries and movie comeback will mean more Emmy Awards than expected at this year's ceremony.

The TV academy's board of governors said it's reversing its 2012 decision to combine lead and supporting acting honors for such projects.

In a statement, the board said that because of the "unanticipated resurgence" of TV miniseries and movies, it had voted to reinstate the separate acting categories.

The board was swayed by a rich field of potential contenders, including Elisabeth Moss and Holly Hunter in Sundance Channel's "Top of the Lake" and Ben Whishaw and Dominic West in BBC America's "The Hour." The Thursday night decision overturned the consolidation that was to go into effect at this year's 65th annual Emmy Awards ceremony.

That means instead of the two planned longform acting awards there will be four: best actress and actor and best supporting actress and actor for a miniseries or movie. »

Emmys Reverse Acting Rule Change in Movies-Minis

18 April 2013 10:09 PM, PDT | Variety - TV News | See recent Variety - TV News news »

Lead and supporting performers in the miniseries-movies genre will compete in separate categories at the Primetime Emmys, reversing a rules change by the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences’ Board of Governors last year.

A year ago, the board decided to – effective in 2013 – combine the lead and supporting actor categories in miniseries-movies into one acting competition, doing the same for lead and supporting mini-movie actresses. The decision was a somewhat surprising one, given that it risked eliminating awards for supporting thesps in the genre, assuming the probability that a lead performer would prevail.

For example, if the system had been in place last year, assuming 2012 lead actor winners Kevin Costner (“Hatfields & McCoys”) and Julianne Moore (“Game Change”) still prevailed, they would have prevented fellow Emmy winners in supporting Tom Berenger (“Hatfields”) or Jessica Lange (“American Horror Story”) from doing the same.

It was the performers peer group that engineered the recommendation last year, »

TV Reviews: HBO’s ‘Mary and Martha,’ Lifetime’s ‘Call Me Crazy’

15 April 2013 7:00 AM, PDT | Variety - TV News | See recent Variety - TV News news »

The TV movie remains in relative decline, which makes a weekend in which two high-profile versions with big-name stars and overt messages playing directly opposite each other especially noteworthy. It’s also instructive, in a compare-and-contrast sort of way, to consider why “Mary and Martha” — a moving return to intimate form for HBO — represents an emotionally stirring triumph, while Lifetime’s “Call Me Crazy: A Five Film” feels like an empty gimmick, an all-star marketing hook/public-service campaign in search of a movie.

After a stretch in which HBO has relied almost exclusively on attention-getting fact-based films like “Game Change” and “Phil Spector,” “Mary and Martha” harks back to when the service was content to tell great little stories — often with an agenda — that might not have been commercial enough to find a home elsewhere. And if one’s first thought is the 2005 gem “The Girl in the Cafe,” it »
