Watch the new trailer for Alice Through The Looking Glass starring Johnny Depp.

The film has a May 27, 2016 release directed by James Bobin also starring Matt Lucas, Ed Speelers, and the voices of Stephen Fry, Alan Rickman, Toby Jones, Michael Sheen, Timothy Spall, Paul Whitehouse, and Barbara Windsor.

Synopsis:

In Disney’s “Alice Through the Looking Glass,” an all-new spectacular adventure featuring the unforgettable characters from Lewis Carroll’s beloved stories, Alice returns to the whimsical world of Underland and travels back in time to save the Mad Hatter. Directed by James Bobin, who brings his own unique vision to the spectacular world Tim Burton created on screen in 2010 with “Alice in Wonderland,” the film is written by Linda Woolverton based on characters created by Lewis Carroll and produced by Joe Roth, Suzanne Todd and Jennifer Todd and Tim Burton with John G. Scotti serving as executive producer. “Alice Through the Looking Glass” reunites the all-star cast from the worldwide blockbuster phenomenon, including: Johnny Depp, Anne Hathaway, Mia Wasikowska and Helena Bonham Carter along with the voices of Alan Rickman, Stephen Fry, Michael Sheen and Timothy Spall. We are also introduced to several new characters: Zanik Hightopp (Rhys Ifans), the Mad Hatter’s father and Time himself (Sacha Baron Cohen), a peculiar creature who is part human, part clock.

Alice Kingsleigh (Wasikowska) has spent the past few years following in her father’s footsteps and sailing the high seas. Upon her return to London, she comes across a magical looking glass and returns to the fantastical realm of Underland and her friends the White Rabbit (Sheen), Absolem (Rickman), the Cheshire Cat (Fry) and the Mad Hatter (Depp), who is not himself. The Hatter has lost his Muchness, so Mirana (Hathaway) sends Alice on a quest to borrow the Chronosphere, a metallic globe inside the chamber of the Grand Clock which powers all time. Returning to the past, she comes across friends – and enemies – at different points in their lives, and embarks on a perilous race to save the Hatter before time runs out. Presented in Digital 3D™, Real D 3D and IMAX® 3D, Disney’s “Alice Through the Looking Glass” opens in U.S. theaters on May 27, 2016.

Watch: New Trailer For London Has Fallen

Check out a new trailer above for London Has Fallen, the sequel to Olympus Has Fallen.

London Has Fallen has a March 4, 2016 release directed by Babak Najafi starring Gerard Butler, Aaron Eckhart, Morgan Freeman, Alon Moni Aboutboul, Angela Bassett, Robert Forster, Jackie Earle Haley, Melissa Leo, Radha Mitchell, Sean O’Bryan, Charlotte Riley and Waleed Zuaiter

Synopsis:

The sequel to the worldwide smash hit “Olympus Has Fallen,” a non-stop, suspenseful action thriller that delivers high-octane excitement through a heightened sense of authenticity. The visceral intensity springs from a timely premise: after the British Prime Minister passes away, his funeral becomes a target of a terrorist organization to destroy some of the world’s most powerful leaders, devastate the British capital, and unleash a terrifying vision of the future. The only hope of stopping it rests on the shoulders of the President of the United States (Aaron Eckhart) and his formidable Secret Service head (Gerard Butler), and an English MI-6 agent (Charlotte Riley) who rightly trusts no one. Morgan Freeman also stars as the Vice President of the United States.

Batman Producer Charles Roven Talks Justice League Characters & Plans (Video)

Check out a video interview above with Batman producer Charles Roven talking about the direction of the DC Justice League characters.

Roven talks about the DC “brain trust,” going different routes for their movies and working with other filmmakers.

Here is some of the text (via Collider):

“I think also very much involved in that brain trust is John Berg, who is the executive vice president at Warner Bros. I would say the Snyders, myself, John Berg, and Geoff Johns would be sort of that Brain Trust… I’m working with great people. They’re all really great people. And not that we don’t—there are many times we agree, and there’s many times we don’t agree [and] we work it out.”

“The other thing that I really love about what we’re doing is we’re also bringing in really talented other filmmakers and having them come in and create—I call it the sandbox. We’ve got this sandbox of the Justice League DC characters, and we are hoping to create—this series of movies that we’ve announced are somewhat interlinked. The characters move at a throughline that hopefully will take us all the way to Justice League 2, but they also can interact in the other films as well in some way.”

“So if, for example, The Flash movie or the Aquaman film is gonna come out after Justice League 1, it’s not gonna be a completely different character; that character will have evolved from Justice League 1. Wonder Woman, when we see her in Justice League 1, will have evolved from Batman v Superman. Unless we decide that in one of these stories we’re gonna do something that happened in the past and have it be more of an origination story, in which case you’ll realize how that character became what they were in the movie that they were first introduced.”

“So that’s really challenging and interesting, and you lay out a road map but then when you bring somebody else in they kinda go, ‘Well you’re going to San Francisco by Route 5, what if you took the 101?’ [And you go] ‘Well that’s interesting, maybe we should go Route 101. What if we did?’ And so that changes the whole thing and all of a sudden you realize you can actually get to where you need to get to by a whole different methodology than what you originally planned. Or you might decide to blend the routes. And by doing that it’s very fresh. You’ve got very fresh ideas, very interesting ideas. It’s just really a lot of fun if you’ve got really great collaborative minds working together to try to make things better, more interesting, more fun, more provocative.”

You see, these are the real deal Earth’s Mightiest Heroes (and Villains), complete with their distinct personalities, powers and personal struggles that we’ve all grown to know and love. What has transformed them into students, and what chain of events have assembled them at the ultimate superhuman university? Class is in session…do you have what it takes to become an Avenger?”

New Rendel Images

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:22767:]]

Check out a batch of new images for the first Scandinavian superhero movie, Rendel, as filming has now reached the halfway point.

After 3 weeks of intense filming, Jesse Haaja, the director and creator of Rendel, is more than happy with the material.

“At this point of the production, the biggest positive thing is the high visual quality we’ve been able to achieve,” says Haaja.

Before filming started, the movie received a remarkable boost in its production budget by the entry of Black Lion Pictures and Frozen Flame Pictures. As a result, basically the whole project was rebooted.

“Thanks to the increased budget we’re now able to do things we couldn’t include in our original plans,” Haaja said. “To be honest, almost everything has changed. The only thing that remains untouched is the original story: Rendel will still be a dark tale of a man blinded by revenge. This is also the reason why we’ve removed the previously released teaser material from the web. The old material simply does not represent the quality of the upcoming movie anymore. Things are going to look so much better.”

We can expect to see new the Rendel material at the beginning of 2016.

“Rendel” has a 2016 release date.

Disney Wiping Slave Leia From All Star Wars Merchandise

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:22761:]]

More PC BS from Disney these days as it’s being reported the Carrie Fisher “Slave Leia” costume from Return of the Jedi is being wiped from all forthcoming merchandise.

But that’s not all as it’s even said Marvel Comics is not allowed to have their Star Wars comic book artists draw Princess Leia in a sexy pose.

The info comes from well known comic book artist J. Scott Campbell who replied on a Facebook page with:

“Daisy Ridley won’t have to fight against anything. Disney is already well on it’s way to wiping out the ‘slave’ outfit from any future products period. You will NOT see and future merchandising featuring the slave outfit ever again. Trust me.”

Campbell is further asked if Disney is going to digitally edit future versions of Return of the Jedi by putting clothes on Slave Leia, in which Campbell replies:

“I haven’t heard anything that drastic, I think the backlash would be too big. More of a ‘quietly sweep the rest under the carpet’ kinda thing.”

Campbell also appears to have added he heard the info from two sources (which Newsarama pointed out), and that they can’t draw a sexy normal Leia in the comic:

“I’ve heard it from two sources. We can’t even draw Leia in a sexy pose at Marvel, let alone in that outfit! We also had a 3-D [Slave Leia] statue killed at a major manufacturer because there will no longer be any [Slave Leia] merchandise.”

This news follows recent statements by Carrie Fisher in which she suggested to Daisy Ridley to stay away from being sex symbol:

Carrie Fisher advised Star Wars: The Force Awakens actress Daisy Ridley to “fight for your outfit. Don’t be a slave like I was,” while discussing Fisher’s supposed status as a sex symbol.

Big Captain America: Civil War & Spider-Man Promotion Rumored For Next Week

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:22757:]]

DC vs. Marvel is back on!

With Warner Bros. featuring Batman Vs. Superman and Suicide Squad in magazine covers and articles last week, now it’s being said Marvel will be following suit with a big Captain America: Civil War promotion next week.

While WB had Empire and Total Film magazines under their wing, Marvel will once again be going with Entertainment Weekly, which saw the big Age of Ultron reveal with Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans and Ultron from the Summer of 2014.

The Captain America: Civil War promotion is currently considered a rumor as the info comes via Twitter, which even suggests a Tom Holland Spider-Man reveal may be a part of the event.

The November 13th issue of Entertainment Weekly would be about five weeks from what is said to be the release of the Captain America: Civil War trailer, which is said to be attached to Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Even if the rumor turns out false, with the Captain America: Civil War trailer getting released in the coming weeks, we can expect Civil War promotions to amp up.

Lex Luthor Will Be Righteous & Vengeful In Batman Vs. Superman

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:22755:]]

We get a look inside the mind of Lex Luthor in Batman Vs. Superman as Jesse Eisenberg recently appeared on The Diane Rehm Show which saw a fan ask and record the answer.

Eisenberg is asked who or what he used to channel Luthor, with Eisenberg revealing some tidbits about what motivates the character including Lex Luthor in Batman Vs. Superman will be vengeful, righteous, emotional and just (at least from Luthor’s perspective).

“I’ve always noticed the best thing to channel, as an actor, is yourself. To figure out what makes you angry, what makes you feel vengeful or righteous. Those are the feelings that Lex Luthor has. And use that as opposed to kind of watching Gene Hackman, who was a great actor obviously and played that part originally, and think, ‘How can I kind of mirror that?’ Because the truth is, me mirroring him would just come off weird. We have different faces, differently life experiences, different emotions, but what I do have – that I have more than anybody – is my own feelings, and so I use those, and then the character seems not only real, but emotional and just. He believes he is the hero of his own story – is the kind of the actor cliche – when you’re playing the villain, you’re the hero of your own story. That’s the kind of most interesting way for me as an actor, and I think, as an audience to appreciate it as well.”

Friday the 13th: The Game Announcement Trailer & Info

JASON VOORHEES IS BACK IN FRIDAY THE 13th: THE GAME!

Fans can also become a part of horror history by supporting Friday the 13th: The Game’s Kickstarter page.

Friday The 13th: The Game currently stands at over 75% of its funding goal, with over $540,000 in pledges from over 8,000 backers in two weeks! The team at Gun Media, IllFonic and Crystal Lake Entertainment are thrilled to announce several planned ‘stretch goals’ for the Kickstarter campaign, including the potential for fans to play as Pamela Voorhees, the return of Tommy Jarvis and a litany of kills hand-designed by Tom Savini!

The fan support of Jason’s return to video games has been astonishing so far; the launch trailer has been viewed over 2.1 million times alone, and we’ve had over a million engagements across all social media platforms. The team is highly confident in the Kickstarter’s success and looks forward to bringing Camp Crystal Lake to life on Xbox One, PS4 and PC!

Developed by Gun Media and IllFonic, Friday the 13: The Game will deliver a terrifying combination of features designed to satisfy gamers and fans of the Friday the 13th franchise alike. In addition to bringing the tension and horror of the movies to life, the game will also let players don the mask of Jason Voorhees for the first time and control all new levels of brutal action! The development team had earlier collaborated on the unreleased survival horror-themed game Slasher Vol. 1: Summer Camp and plans to integrate much of that design into the new Friday the 13th game.

“As you can imagine the conversion from Slasher Vol.1: Summer Camp to Friday the 13th: The Game was a dream come true for our entire team” explained Ronnie Hobbs, of Gun Media. “1v7 asymmetrical multiplayer is a perfect fit for this franchise, and we can’t wait to share our creation with fans across the world.“

“It’s been nearly 30 years since fans have had the opportunity to experience a Friday the 13th video game.” explained Sean S. Cunningham, creator of the Friday the 13th franchise. “Technology has finally reached a level that allows us to produce an experience fans of the franchise deserve. It’s always been a dream of mine to let players fully BECOME Jason, and stalk camp counselors across a virtual Crystal Lake. I’m delighted we’re able to bring this fantasy to life!“

Friday the 13th: The Game is being developed for PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4, for release in Fall, 2016.
