New casting and filming details for Michael Bay's Transformers 4, which will apparently be a "chase from hell".
As Michael Bay's new movie, Pain & Gain, begins its worldwide roll-out, the maker of on-screen mayhem is preparing to make his fourth film in the Transformers series. Set for release in June next year, Transformers 4 is a bit of a shake-up for the series, with Mark Wahlberg, Nicola Peltz and Jack Reynor already on board.
At the CinemaCon event currently taking place in the States, Bay has now also announced that Stanley Tucci is the latest addition to the cast. Tucci, recently seen in The Hunger Games and currently filming Heat with the mighty Jason Statham, is taking on a thus-far unknown role. If you get a chance though, do check out a film he directed - Big Night. It's excellent, and features »

12 April 2013 9:48 AM, PDT | firstshowing.net | See recent FirstShowing.net news »
The remake of Heat starring Jason Statham got knocked down a couple pegs recently when Brian De Palma opted not to direct, and Con-Air and The Expendables 2 helmer Simon West took over.

Now some more supporting members have turned up as Deadline reports Stanley Tucci, Michael Angarano, Anne Heche, Hope Davis, Milo Ventimiglia and Cedric the Entertainer have all joined the the remake of the 1986 thriller. More below! For those just joining us, Statham is playing Nick Escalante, a compulsive gambler who works "security" jobs in Las Vegas. When his prostitute friend (Vergara) gets roughed up by a sadistic member of the mob, Escalante turns vigilante and heads out for revenge. Angarano will play »

11 March 2013 4:43 PM, PDT | EW - Inside Movies | See recent EW.com - Inside Movies news »
• After a reported six months of negotiations, Jason Sudekis, Jason Bateman, and Charlie Day are set to reprise their roles as Kurt, Nick, and Dale for Horrible Bosses 2. The first film grossed over $200 million worldwide on a $35 million budget, so it’s no surprise that New Line was eager to try out a sequel. Business aside, this seems like great news. Not only is the cast remaining intact, we’re getting the same writing (John Francis Daley, Jonathan Goldstein) and directing (Seth Gordon) team, and Jamie Foxx is still in talks to reprise his role as Motherf—– Jones too. »
