Gina Rodriguez Joins Natalie Portman In ‘Annihilation’, From ‘Ex Machina’ Director Alex Garland By Angie Han/Nov. 11, 2015 6:30 am EST Alex Garland’s directorial debut Ex Machina has proven to be one of the very best films of 2015, thanks in no small part to the exceptional actors at its core: future Star Wars stars Oscar Isaac and Domhnall Gleeson, and the suddenly ubiquitous Alicia Vikander. Now his follow-up feature Annihilation, set up at Paramount, is collecting a similarly promising cast....
Listen: This Remix Sets J.K. Simmons’ ‘Whiplash’ Insults To Some Fresh Beats By Ethan Anderton/June 3, 2016 5:00 am EST Even though Whiplash came out back in 2014, it’s one of those movies that it doesn’t hurt to talk about every so often simply because it’s so damn good. One thing that makes the movie so outstanding is the incredible jazz soundtrack. But not everyone is a fan of the orchestral musical style, so Eclectic Method’s Johnny Wilson and 16-year-old DJ/producer Genranon decided to take the jazz, pump some high energy electronic music into it....
LOL: ‘Sisters’ Takes A Page Out Of The ‘Star Wars’ Playbook With ‘The Farce Awakens’ Featurette By Angie Han/Dec. 3, 2015 11:00 am EST Most of the big studio releases have run like hell from Star Wars: The Force Awakens, and with good reason: even the most conservative estimates have the film not just breaking, but shattering box office records. But through it all, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler’s Sisters has stood firm....
Matt Damon Spills ‘Bourne 5’ Details; Shooting Begins Next Week By Angie Han/Aug. 28, 2015 8:00 am EST Right now, pretty much the only thing we know about the plot of the next Bourne movie is that it’ll be about Bourne. Matt Damon reprises his role as the amnesiac spy for the first time since 2007’s The Bourne Ultimatum, after sitting out 2012’s The Bourne Legacy. But with shooting scheduled to begin next week, Damon has finally confirmed some concrete details about where the story will go next, as well as some more general information on the real-world issues Jason Bourne will have to face....

During the interview, /Film asked Freeman if he would return for Bruce Almighty 2.

Pretty weird, right? Even though the movie was dubbed as the “farting corpse movie” when it premiered at the Sundance Film Festival back in January, prompting some audiences to walk out of the movie, there’s much more to it that flatulence and oddities....
See Alternate Designs For ‘Star Wars: The Force Awakens’ Lovable Ball Droid BB-8 By Ethan Anderton/Dec. 24, 2015 12:00 pm EST We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. Even before Star Wars: The Force Awakens had been seen by the public, the little ball droid BB-8 was already a favorite of fans.

Stephen Colbert Interviews Eminem For 20 Minutes On Public Access To Prepare For ‘The Late Show’ By Ethan Anderton/July 2, 2015 8:00 am EST We’re in the heart of summer, and while blockbuster season is keeping us occupied for the time being (not to mention Comic-Con next week), a part of me looks forward to the fall when new TV shows start to hit the air. One of those shows will be The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, and a new taste of what we can expect from David Letterman’s replacement has just surfaced....
This Week In Trailers: Shake The Dust, Born In China, Just About Famous, Love At First Fight, The Bad Mother By Christopher Stipp/April 25, 2015 9:00 am EST There’s something epic about the indomitability of the human soul. The quest to find meaning in life could take on various shapes, many of which taking the form of religion or spirituality, but breakdancing is definitely a new one. Director Adam Sjöberg starts this out in a way that positions this film as yet another documentary about the plight of those who have not had the same rudimentary resources as many of us enjoy....
By Angie Han/Nov. 16, 2015 8:30 am EST Coyote Ugly isn’t exactly a classic for the ages, but it has done a surprisingly good job of not being forgotten. 15 years on, people still have fond memories of watching Piper Perabo dance on bars, aided by the fact that the film still plays on cable TV from time to time. But the movie almost turned out very differently. In a recent interview, director David McNally reveals that Jessica Simpson was up for the part that Perabo eventually won, and that Kevin Smith once submitted a much raunchier draft of the script....

‘Animals’ Trailer: Character Actor David Dastmalchian Writes And Stars In A Gritty Drama By Russ Fischer/April 7, 2015 4:30 pm EST You definitely know actor David Dastmalchian from ominous turns in films such as Prisoners and The Dark Knight, but he gets to explore much different territory in Animals. The film won the Special Jury Prize for Courage in Storytelling at SXSW in 2014, which has got to be pretty good for Dastmalcian, as he scripted the film in addition to starring in it....
‘Community’ Could Get Another Season On Yahoo By Angie Han/June 3, 2015 8:00 am EST Six seasons and… another season? Community served up its Season 6 finale this week, but a new report indicates Yahoo is already in discussions about a possible Season 7.

‘Legend’ UK Trailer: Tom Hardy Plays A Smooth Gangster, And A Psychopath By Russ Fischer/July 16, 2015 7:00 am EST There’s a new Legend UK trailer, showing off the film featuring the dual performance from Tom Hardy that should satisfy even the most rabid fan of the actor.

Their next accomplishment will be Top Secret Untitled Lonely Island Movie, a feature produced by Judd Apatow. All three Lonely Island members (that’s Jorma Taccone, Akiva Schaffer, and Andy Samberg) are starring....
‘Pete’s Dragon’ Clips Show Off Pete, His Dragon, And Other Non-Furry Members Of The Supporting Cast By Jacob Hall/July 15, 2016 8:02 am EST Director David Lowery is probably doing something right with his upcoming remake of Pete’s Dragon because I’m not a fan of the 1977 original in the slightest but I fully intend to see the new version in its opening weekend. Maybe my soft spot for tales of isolated youngsters finding families is showing, or maybe I’m just a sucker for dragons, but everything we’ve seen from this movie looks charming and sweet and the right shade of adventurous....
