‘The Wolverine’ Motion Poster: It’s Raining on Hugh Jackman in Tokyo
Though we're still a ways out from the release of James Mangold's 'The Wolverine,' this week has been populated with next summer's biggest films announcing themselves through trailers. Though the Hugh Jackman 'X-Men' spin-off film doesn't seem to be unleashing a trailer this week, they have put out a motion poster.
‘The Lone Ranger’ Trailer: Johnny Depp Instructs Armie Hammer to Wear a Mask
"There come a time when good man must wear mask." So intones Johnny Depp to Armie Hammer in 'The Lone Ranger' trailer, which reveals that director Gore Verbinski is up for being a little weird in his big budget blockbuster.
‘Transformers 4′: Has Michael Bay Cast His Young Leads?
Though it's an early report, we're hearing word that Michael Bay has lined up his younger leads for 'Transformers 4.' The names of the non-robots in disguise? Brenton Thwaites and Nicola Peltz.
‘Star Trek Into Darkness’ Trailer: Cumberbatch Has Returned to Have His Vengeance
Though the trailer won't hit the web until December 17, and the film doesn't hit theaters until May 2013, 'Star Trek Into Darkness' has just released their teaser for the trailer that's coming. Yup, this nonsense again, but at least this one's a minute long.
‘A Good Day to Die Hard’ Featurette: Jai Courtney Plays John McClane’s Kid
We're nearly twenty five years removed from the release of the first 'Die Hard' movie, and 'A Good Day to Die Hard' release coincides with the first film's silver anniversary. And though the connective tissue may be strained, we're down for a Bruce Willis action fest, so this featurette for the new film gets us a little excited.
Seth MacFarlane’s Domination of All Media Continues, Signs up for Comic Western
Was it that long ago that 'Family Guy' was dumped by Fox, and it looked like creator Seth MacFarlane had his shot, and that shot was over? That period from 2003-2005 when 'Family Guy' almost went away seems like a lifetime ago, as now MacFarlane has three cartoon shows going on Fox, just had a hit movie with 'Ted,' is about to host the Oscars and has just lined up his next feature film, in which h
Samuel L. Jackson Updates on His Next Nick Fury Appearance
Samuel L. Jackson has been the anchor for Marvel's movies ever since he appeared in the end credit Easter Egg in the first 'Iron Man.' But now that the universe is established, now that 'The Avengers' is one of the biggest hits of all time, will Jackson continue his trend of showing up for a scene or two in the next couple Marvel movies? It looks like the answer is no.
‘Iron Man 3′ Offers First Look at Rebecca Hall
Though we're still months away from 'Iron Man 3's release, that doesn't mean we aren't going to get a trickle of steady publicity from now until May 3, 2013. The film has just released four new stills, including our first look at Rebecca Hall.
‘Texas Chainsaw 3D’ Dishes a New Trailer and TV Spot
We're still a little confused about which film 'Texas Chainsaw 3D' is a sequel to. The first film spawned three sequels, with only one helmed by the original's Toby Hooper. Then there was the Michael Bay-produced remake, and it's prequel. But this seems drawn more from the original films than the reboots, even though it's sort of labeled a third film. At the end of the day they're all basically re
‘Gangster Squad’ Featurette: Is This Genre Reinvention or Genre Rehash?
One of 2013's first films, 'Gangster Squad,' has had such a troubled production history that it's become an underdog. Originally scheduled for September of this year, it was bumped to January because of the 'The Dark Knight Rises' shooting, and had to go through re-shoots because it had people being gunned down in a theater. But - even though we're in the heart of Oscar season - the film's release
‘This is 40′ Featurette: Jason Segel Gets Paid to Hit on Judd Apatow’s Wife
We're looking forward to Judd Apatow's 'This is 40' for a number of reasons, and one is Jason Segel. In the film he plays Jason, a personal trainer that Leslie Mann's character Debbie is going to partly for the exercise and partly because he constantly hits on her. In this new featurette, we see more of Segel's time in the film.
Hugh Jackman to Join ‘X-Men: Days of Future Past’?
Holy Snikt! Bryan Singer's 'X-Men: Days of Future Past' is not only offering the new Magneto Michael Fassbender and Professor X James McAvoy along with the original versions played by Ian McKellan and Patrick Stewart, it looks like Hugh Jackman may be joining the cast for his seventh go-around as Wolverine.
‘Django Unchained’ Has One Final Trailer and Offers Soundtrack Details
Even with all the word of last minute tweaks, it looks like we're less than a month away from Quentin Tarantino's 'Django Unchained,' and now there's a new trailer that offers a lot of shooting, and a smattering of new footage.
‘Key & Peele’ Renewed for a Third Season
Sketch comedy needs a kick in the rear every couple years, and it's been too long since Dave Chappelle flamed out when fame and fortune made 'The Chappelle Show' his cross to bare. And though 'Key & Peele' isn't to those lofty heights, they might get there, and they might get there next year as the show has been renewed for a third season.
‘Justice League’ Rumor: Will Joseph Gordon-Levitt Play Batman?
'Justice League' is coming out in 2015, which is already going to be one of the biggest summers for event films (between it, 'The Avengers 2' and 'Star Wars Episode 7'), but other than Henry Cavill rumored to appear as Superman none of the other cast has been fleshed out. The latest hot rumor is that Joseph Gordon-Levitt will play Batman, the Dark Knight himself.
‘Independence Day 3D’ is Not Happening
Though it may not speak for the 3D boom entire, we're happy to report that 'Independence Day' will not be getting the 3D re-release in the summer of 2013. To be honest, we hoped it would never happen.
‘Jack the Giant Slayer’ Trailer: Now With a Slightly Better Tone
Bryan Singer's 'Jack the Giant Slayer' has been a big question mark since the picture got bumped from June of this year to March 1, 2013. But now there's a new trailer that makes it look like it could be some fun. Maybe.
‘Parental Guidance’ Trailer: Families are Wacky, Get it?
We've seen competing asteroid pictures, competing "Friends with Benefits" films, competing destructive volcano pictures, but in 2012 we're getting competing "Bonding with your parents" movies, both within a week of each other. First comes 'The Guilt Trip' on December 19, and then 'Parental Guidance' on December 25. Now there's a new trailer for the latter.
‘Now You See Me’ Trailer: This Movie Looks Bonkers
The trailer for 'Now You See Me' seems to suggest one crazy-ass movie. With a large and awesome ensemble cast, and a plot that seems to revolve around magicians who break into a break in Paris (while still in Vegas) only to give that money away... this could be awesome or terrible or terribly awesome or awesomely terrible. Hard to say.
‘Jack Reacher’ Unveils Two TV Spots of Tom Cruise Kicking Butt
We're starting to get excited about the release of 'Jack Reacher.' Sure, this December has some hotly anticipated films like 'Django Unchained' and 'The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey,' but after last year's 'Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol' we're happy to spend two hours watching Tom Cruise in action.
