Coco Teaser Trailer – Pixar’s latest takes us into the land of the dead!

By

Pixar has taken us to some unexpected places over the years. Now that includes a trip to the Land of the Dead, in Coco. While The Book Of Life played with similar themes, this appears to be a uniquely Pixar take on things.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Despite his family’s baffling generations-old ban on music, Miguel (voice of newcomer Anthony Gonzalez) dreams of becoming an accomplished musician like his idol, Ernesto de la Cruz (voice of Benjamin Bratt). Desperate to prove his talent, Miguel finds himself in the stunning and colorful Land of the Dead following a mysterious chain of events. Along the way, he meets charming trickster Hector (voice of Gael García Bernal), and together, they set off on an extraordinary journey to unlock the real story behind Miguel’s family history. Directed by Lee Unkrich (“Toy Story 3”), co-directed by Adrian Molina (story artist “Monsters University”) and produced by Darla K. Anderson (“Toy Story 3”), Disney•Pixar’s “Coco” opens in UK cinemas on 1st December, 2017′

A Family Man Trailer – Gerard Butler must learn to put his kids before work

By

Gerard Butler is stepping out of action man role for a bit, with A Family Man, where he must learn to figure out what’s really important in life. The trailer for the movie has now arrived, which you can see below.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Dane Jensen (Gerard Butler) is a hard-driven Chicago-based headhunter, working at a cut-throat job placement firm. When Dane’s boss (Willem Dafoe) announces his retirement, he pits Dane against Lynn Vogel (Alison Brie), Dane’s equally driven, but polar opposite rival at the firm, in a battle for control of the company.

‘As Dane gears up for the professional battle of his life, he learns his 10-year-old son, Ryan (Max Jenkins), is diagnosed with cancer. Suddenly, Dane is pulled between achieving his professional dream and spending time with his wife (Gretchen Mol) and Ryan, who need him now more than ever.’

The film will be out later this year. [Read more…]

Henry Cavill Signs Up For Mission: Impossible 6

By

Mission: Impossible 6 just got a little less impossible. After all, if you’ve got a man who can fly, stop speeding bullets and have x-ray vision on your team, it makes things easier. That said, although Variety reports that Henry Cavill has signed on to star, he probably won’t be playing Superman.

Instead, he will apparently be ‘would play some sort of a right hand to the head of Cruise’s unit’. Alec Baldwin had the head role in the last film, but its not been announced whether he will return. It also leaves open the possibility that Cavill may actually turn out to be a bad guy.

Vanessa Kirby was recently announced as one of Tom Cruise’s co-stars in the movie, with the likes of Rebecca Ferguson, Simon Pegg, and Jeremy Renner also expected to return in some capacity. The movie is due to start shooting soon, for release July 2018.

Early Man Teaser Trailer – Aardman’s Nick Park takes us back to stop motion caveman times

By

Nick Park is the man who helped put Aardman on the map with his Oscar winning Wallace & Gromit Shorts, Creature Comforts (another Oscar winner) and Chicken Run. However, his painstaking stop motion approach means it takes a long time for him to finish a film. His last directorial effort was the Wallace & Gromit short A Matter Of Loaf & Death, back in 2008.

Now though, he’s returning with Early Man.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘EARLY MAN is the new prehistoric comedy adventure from four-time Academy Award-winning director Nick Park and AARDMAN, the creators of WALLACE AND GROMIT and SHAUN THE SHEEP. Shot in Aardman’s own distinctive style, the film will take audiences on an extraordinary journey into an exciting new world unleashing an unforgettable tribe of unique and funny new characters voiced by an all-star British cast.

‘Set at the dawn of time, when prehistoric creatures roamed the earth, EARLY MAN tells the story of courageous caveman hero Dug (EDDIE REDMAYNE) and his best friend Hognob as they unite his tribe against a mighty enemy Lord Nooth (TOM HIDDLESTON) and his Bronze Age City to save their home.’

The Matrix Is Getting ‘Rebooted’ At Warner Bros., But Without the Wachowskis

By

To be honest, I’m surprised this hasn’t happened before. While The Reloaded and Revolutions weren’t the box office behemoths Warner Bros. had hoped, they still showed that there were plenty of people interested in that world. Now THR has heard that a Matrix ‘reboot’ is in the early stages.

They suggest that Zak Penn in talks to write a treatment, with the studio potentially looking at Michael B. Jordan to star. At the moment though, Lana and Lilly Wachowski aren’t involved, but that may change. Warner is apparently hoping to get their blessing at the very least, as without it they fear a backlash from fans.

At the moment though this doesn’t appear to be a reboot in the sense that it will retell the story of Neo. Instead, as Arrival screenwriter Eric Heisserer put it on Twitter, it appears the studio is hoping to ‘Rogue One’ the franchise, telling an alternative tale set in the same universe.

There is also the potential for the return of Keanu Reeves, although he would want the Wachowskis fully involved, as he recently told Yahoo! Movies, that for him to get back into The Matrix world, “They would have to write it and direct it. And then we’d see what the story is, but yeah, I dunno, that’d be weird, but why not?”

At the moment though, it’s too early to say what will happen.

Life Red Band Trailer – Aliens really don’t like Ryan Reynolds and Jake Gyllenhaal

By

Aliens really need to learn how to chill out. While occasionally we find a nice one like ET, most of the time when humanity makes contact with alien life on screen, it all very quickly goes bad. That’s happening again in Life, where Ryan Reynolds and Jake Gyllenhaal are stuck in space with something alien and icky that wants to kill them. Previous promos for the movie have hidden the extraterrestrial away, but this red band trailer gives us some glimpses of monster.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Life tells the story of the six-member crew of the International Space Station that is on the cutting edge of one of the most important discoveries in human history: the first evidence of extraterrestrial life on Mars. As the crew begins to conduct research, their methods end up having unintended consequences and the life form proves more intelligent than anyone ever expected.’

The movie stars Jake Gyllenhaal, Rebecca Ferguson, Olga Dihovichnaya, Ariyon Bakare, Hiroyuki Sanada, and Ryan Reynolds. It’ll be in cinemas later this month. [Read more…]
