Ryan Gosling Sought For Neil Armstrong Biopic, First Man

By

ryan-goslingHollywood really will make a movie about anything. After all, what did Neil Armstrong ever do, other than be the first man on the moon? Ok, fair enough, maybe that is a good enough reason to make a movie about him.

Whiplash’s Damien Chazelle is planning to helm a movie based on James Hansen’s Armstrong biography First Man: A Life of Neil A. Armstrong, and he wants Ryan Gosling to star. Deadline reports that talks are taking place to the actor, but no deal has been struck yet.

The film would reunite Gosling and Chazelle, who’ve been working together recently on the upcoming La La Land.

Neil Armstrong was a aerospace engineer, naval aviator, test pilot who became NASA’s first civilian astronaut. Then, on his second and last trip into space he became the first man to walk on the moon. Afterwards he lived a far quieter life than he could have done, largely working as an educator and businessman. He died in 2012.

Captain America: Civil War Trailer – Steve Rogers & Tony Stark are no longer friends

By

captain-america-civil-war-poster1-slideIt may have Captain America in the name, but Civil War is almost as much of an Avengers movie as Age Of Ultron. Only Thor and Hulk are missing – but they will both be in Thor: Ragnarok, so they haven’t been forgotten completely.

Now three posters and a first trailer for Captain America: Civil War are here.

Synopsis: ‘Marvel’s “Captain America: Civil War” picks up where “Avengers: Age of Ultron” left off, as Steve Rogers leads the new team of Avengers in their continued efforts to safeguard humanity. After another international incident involving the Avengers results in collateral damage, political pressure mounts to install a system of accountability and a governing body to determine when to enlist the services of the team. The new status quo fractures the Avengers while they try to protect the world from a new and nefarious villain.

‘The movie stars Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Sebastian Stan, Anthony Mackie, Emily VanCamp, Don Cheadle, Jeremy Renner, Chadwick Boseman, Paul Bettany, Elizabeth Olsen, Paul Rudd, Frank Grillo, Tom Holland, with William Hurt and Daniel Brühl. Marvel’s “Captain America: Civil War” is directed by Anthony & Joe Russo and produced by Kevin Feige. Louis D’Esposito, Alan Fine, Victoria Alonso, Patricia Whitcher, Nate Moore and Stan Lee serve as executive producers and the screenplay is by Christopher Markus & Stephen McFeely.’

Take a look at the trailer and posters below. [Read more…]

Carol (Cinema Review)

By

carol-review-slideStarring: Cate Blanchett, Rooney Mara, Sarah Paulson, Kyle Chandler

Our Score

If Far From Heaven was Todd Haynes’ love letter to director Douglas Sirk, this is his tribute to painter Edward Hopper. Whatever the flaws of his film – more of which later – it is probably the best-looking movie of 2015. Meticulously reimagining the New York of the 1950s it has shot after shot of its protagonists exquisitely framed, gorgeously coloured and superbly dressed.

Several moments are worth pausing and gazing at for hours, especially one amazing shot of a grey, drab New York street lifted by the bright red coat and hat of the ethereal Cate Blanchett striding along. The interiors are gloomy, the exteriors washed out and tired-looking. Hopper would be impressed.

It received a standing ovation at Cannes and has been held back to coincide with Oscars season, during which it will probably clean up. However… [Read more…]

Tom Cruise In Talks To Star In The Mummy Reboot

By

Tom-Cruise-slideUniversal has big plans for an interconnected monster movie universe, and in order to help kick it off properly it seems they want a big name in the hope it’ll drawn in the crowds. Variety reports that Tom Cruise is the man the studio wants, and it appears he’s interested as he’s not in talks to take the lead role.

If he does sign on, he’s likely to play a role in the projects development, with Jon Spaihts writing the script and Alex Kurtzman and Chris Morgan producing. The latter are in charge of building the Avengers-style monster universe, so they’ll need to make sure they get this one right.

Not too much is known about the plot, except it will of course involve the titular Mummy and will be set in the present day.

It’s expected in cinemas in 2017.
