While Young Adult wasn’t the success any of them probably hoped, it hasn’t stopped actor Charlize Theron, writer Diablo Cody and director Jason Reitman reteaming for Tully. The movie has just released a new trailer, giving us a good look at the comedy about a mother and a nanny, which has been getting some good notices at festivals.
Here’s the synopsis: ‘A new comedy from Academy Award®-nominated director Jason Reitman (“Up in the Air”) and Academy Award®-winning screenwriter Diablo Cody (“Juno”). Marlo (Academy Award® winner Charlize Theron), a mother of three including a newborn, is gifted a night nanny by her brother (Mark Duplass). Hesitant to the extravagance at first, Marlo comes to form a unique bond with the thoughtful, surprising, and sometimes challenging young nanny named Tully (Mackenzie Davis).’
The movie is due out on April 20th. Take a look at the new trailer below. [Read more…]
The various efforts to get people interested in a post-T2 Terminator franchise have largely foundered, but there’s been more interest in a new attempt, which will bring James Cameron back as a producer/creative force, as well as original stars Arnold Schwarzenegger and Linda Hamilton. Now they have some company in the form of Blade Runner 2049 star Mackenzie Davis, according to 
The recent Goodbye Christopher Robin took a traditional biopic look at Winnie The Pooh creator AA Milne. Well, Disney has a slightly different take on the life of Milne’s son, Christopher Robin, by completely fictionalising it and turning Winnie into a CG character in a live-action world. Even after watching the first teaser trailer it seems like a bizarre idea, but it might just work.
Jason Blum and his Blumhouse Productions company have managed to almost monopolise popular horror with everything from Get Out and the Paranormal Activity series to Insidious and The Purge. The producer is hoping to add another hit to the list with Truth or Dare (although I think it’s fair to say it won’t be matching Get Out’s Oscar success).
It’s fair to day there are still plenty of people who are unsure whether Disney should be making a belated sequel to one of the true classics of family cinema, Mary Poppins. However, the first teaser trailer has arrived to try and convince us it’ll be worth having the magical nanny back, in the form of Emily Blunt this time – and it has to be said, it does a good job.
You’ve certainly got to hope that with a cast including Diane Keaton, Jane Fonda, Candice Bergen, and Mary Steenburgen, Book Club will be a lot of fun. It’s also got a potentially fun concept, with the quartet of actress playing friends who’ve started a book club to improve their minds.
