Blade Runner 2 Concept Art

New concept art has been released for Blade Runner 2.

EW.com debuted the art along with comments from director Denis Villeneuve (Ridley Scott is on board as producer).

Villeneuve confirmed Blade Runner 2 “takes place several decades after the original. The setting is once again a future Los Angeles, albeit one that spreads over much of the West Coast.”

“The climate has gone berserk – the ocean, the rain, the snow is all toxic,” Villeneuve said.

The vehicle pictured in the concept art is described as kind of snow blower that hovers over the streets and destroys snow. “It’s a Canadian wet dream!” laughed Villeneuve.

Harrison Ford will be back for Blade Runner 2 who is also joined by Ryan Cosling. Regarding Ford’s Rick Deckard, Villeneuve offered ”he’s full of wisdom and good advice.”

“It’s a great team and spirits are very high,” Villenevue said. “Failure is not an option.” 

The untitled Blade Runner sequel has an October 6, 2017 release also starring Robin Wright and Dave Bautista.

Harrison Ford Survives Indiana Jones 5 Says Steven Spielberg

Steven Spielberg is returning to direct the fifth Indiana Jones movie for Disney and drops a tidbit regarding Harrison Ford whose Han Solo was killed off in Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

No worries, though, as Spielberg says the same thing isn’t happening to Indy.

Spielberg told THR he’s “super excited” about Indiana Jones 5 and offered, “I think this one is straight down the pike for the fans. The one thing I will tell you is I’m not killing off Harrison [Ford] at the end of it.” 

We can even speculate that news of not killing off Harrison Ford may even mean Ford may be brought back for more Indiana Jones movies.

The untitled Indiana Jones 5 has a July 19, 2019 release.

Indiana Jones 5 A Continuation of Crystal Skull?

A fifth Indiana Jones movie is in the works which will see Harrison Ford return as well as the writer behind Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull, David Koepp.

Now it’s said the new movie will be a “continuation” of Crystal Skull.

Variety attended CinemaCon where they note producer Frank Marshall stated Indiana Jones 5 will not be a prequel, but a continuation of the story from where it left off with Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull in 2008.

They didn’t directly quote Marshall, so before everybody flips their lid, more than likely Frank Marshall means not a direct continuation, just that the events that happened in Crystal Skull will still be relevant or referenced in the new movie.

The end of Crystal Skull saw Indiana Jones marry Marion and get reinstated at Marshall College and made an associate dean; so more than likely that may play a part in Indiana Jones 5, than say any of the goofy alien stuff.

Marshall also said there are no plans to replace Harrison Ford on Indiana Jones like the actors are with the James Bond (or Batman) movies. Ditto with Matt Damon and Jason Bourne.

“It’s all about the story. I think both in the ‘Jason Bourne’ series and on ‘Indiana Jones,’ we are not going to do the Bond thing,” Marshall said. “We think those characters are iconic, and those are the only actors who can play that.”

The fifth untitled Indiana Jones movie has a July 19, 2019 release date.

Miles Teller Never Watched Star Wars Prior To Han Solo Audition

Miles Teller is one of the thousands of actors who have auditioned for the role of the young Han Solo movie in the Star Wars Anthology film due out in 2018.

Teller, who seems to have not landed the role, tells the Happy Sad Confused Podcast that he didn’t even watch Star Wars prior to the audition.

“I had never even seen any of the original Star Wars movies until maybe a month or a couple weeks before my first audition because I was like, ‘I should check this out’ (laughs). It holds up. I just love Harrison Ford, I think that’s a great character. I love his brand, I mean so many guys would’ve played that part so wrong and he has humor at the right times.”

The same podcast sees Teller defending the recent Fantastic Four movie that bombed at the box office (for what it’s worth, I thought it wasn’t all that bad; they just needed to fix a few things: Thing, Doom and add more story elements).

“People think that when you make something like a Fantastic Four that doesn’t do well, people think ‘Oh you phoned it in’ and it couldn’t be more untrue. You work harder on the bad films, or the films that turn out maybe not the way you intended, because something’s not working. And I thought it was kind of unjustly critiqued that way; there are even bigger bombs if you’re looking at how much money went into the production and what they reaped back. But I think it’s unfortunate a movie like that becomes a scarlet letter on a resume when so many talented people worked really hard and maybe a handful of people took it in a negative direction. ”

Teller goes on to blame the Fantastic Four script for the movie’s failure, which according to reports, was always in a state of flux.

“I think it was Clooney who said you can make a bad movie out of a good script, you can’t make a good movie out of a bad script, and that’s very true. If they’re telling you maybe your part’s not as big and they say, ‘Oh you’re gonna be bigger in the sequel’ or ‘Oh we’re gonna rewrite’ and ‘Yeah we’re gonna take in all these notes,’ if you’re in a position where you can say hold off I’m not signing off on this dotted line until this script is exactly where you want it, then you’re in a very fortunate position.

The Han Solo Star Wars movie has a May 25, 2018 release directed by Phil Lord and Chris Miller. It’s said Taron Egerton, Jack Reynor and Alden Ehrenreich are now being eyed for the role of the young Han Solo.

Indiana Jones 5 Gets Jurassic Park & Spider-Man Writer

A couple of days ago Disney officially announced Indiana Jones 5 is in the works with Steven Spielberg and Harrison Ford returning.

Now it’s learned the co-writer behind the previous Indiana Jones movie, Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull, is also returning, with David Koepp.

THR reports the longtime Spielberg writer is back, but as of now, no plot details for Indiana Jones 5 are known.

While it may sounds like a red flag with the writer behind the disastrous Kingdom of The Crystal Skull being brought back, bear in mind David Koepp worked off of George Lucas’ original story idea as well as Jeff Nathanson’s several drafts (more than likely Koepp was brought on to try and salvage whatever he could from Lucas’ ideas).

The report also notes it’s unclear if Lucas will be involved with Indiana Jones 5. It’s possible, similar to Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Lucas may be on the sideline again.

The good news is that David Koepp also wrote Jurassic Park and the first Sam Raimi Spider-Man film as well as Mission Impossible, The Lost World: Jurassic Park and Toy Soldiers, so we shouldn’t worry too much. Koepp is also behind Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit and the adaptation of Dan Brown novel that stars Tom Hanks, Inferno.

The fifth untitled Indiana Jones movie has a July 19, 2019 release date.

Harrison Ford & Steven Spielberg Returning For Indiana Jones 5

Disney has announced Harrison Ford will be back for the fifth Indiana Jones movie re-teaming with Steven Spielberg who will direct the film.

The untitled Indiana Jones 5 has a July 19, 2019 release date with Kathleen Kennedy and Frank Marshall back as producers as well.

Info:

Indiana Jones will return to the big screen on July 19, 2019, for a fifth epic adventure in the blockbuster series. Steven Spielberg, who directed all four previous films, will helm the as-yet-untitled project with star Harrison Ford reprising his iconic role. Franchise veterans Kathleen Kennedy and Frank Marshall will produce.

“Indiana Jones is one of the greatest heroes in cinematic history, and we can’t wait to bring him back to the screen in 2019,” said Alan Horn, Chairman, The Walt Disney Studios. “It’s rare to have such a perfect combination of director, producers, actor and role, and we couldn’t be more excited to embark on this adventure with Harrison and Steven.”

Famed archaeologist and explorer Indiana Jones was introduced in 1981’s Raiders of the Lost Ark – one of AFI’s 100 Greatest American Films of All Time – and later thrilled audiences in 1984’s Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, 1989’s Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, and 2008’s Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. The four films have brought in nearly $2 billion at the global box office.

Check out video below from the ABC special featuring Harrison Ford offering a first look at Star Wars Land.

The Star Wars-themed lands are being developed at Disneyland and Walt Disney World Resorts.

Ambitious plans to bring Star Wars to life in the two parks include creating Disney’s largest single-themed land expansions ever at 14-acres each, transporting guests to a never-before-seen planet, a remote trading port and one of the last stops before wild space where Star Wars characters and their stories come to life. 

These authentic lands will have two signature attractions, including the ability to take the controls of one of the most recognizable ships in the galaxy, the Millennium Falcon, on a customized secret mission, and an epic Star Wars adventure that puts guests in the middle of a climactic battle.

HARRISON FORD REVEALS AN EXCLUSIVE PREVIEW OF STAR WARS-THEMED LANDS COMING TO DISNEYLAND AND WALT DISNEY WORLD RESORTS AS ABC PRESENTS “THE WONDERFUL WORLD OF DISNEY: DISNEYLAND 60,” AIRING FEBRUARY 21

 

Acclaimed actor Harrison Ford, who portrays Han Solo in the “Star Wars” film franchise, gives viewers an exclusive preview of Star Wars-themed lands being developed at Disneyland and Walt Disney World Resorts. New details of the ambitious plans to bring Star Wars to life at both resorts will be revealed during “The Wonderful World of Disney: Disneyland 60,” with Master of Ceremonies Derek Hough, airing SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 21 (8:00-10:00 p.m. EST), on the ABC Television Network.

The Los Angeles Philharmonic, conducted by music and artistic director Gustavo Dudamel, will join the celebration performing “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” from Walt Disney’s acclaimed animated film “Fantasia.”

Previously announced “Wonderful World of Disney: Disneyland 60” participants include Elton John, Josh Gad and Witney Carson.

Walt Disney’s legacy lives on through the Disneyland Resort, but even he might not have been able to imagine how big his idea would become at Disneyland and at Disney parks that span the globe. He launched an entirely new concept for family entertainment that remains as relevant today as the day it opened on July 17, 1955 for guests of all ages.

The Disneyland Resort will continue its 60th Anniversary Diamond Celebration through Summer 2016, extending the three spectacular after-dark shows created for the special anniversary – the “Paint the Night” parade, the immersive “Disneyland Forever” fireworks show and the all-new “World of Color–Celebrate! The Wonderful World of Walt Disney.” The exciting celebration, which also features sparkling décor, themed food and merchandise, will conclude on Labor Day, Monday, September 5, 2016.

The Los Angeles Philharmonic Association, under the vibrant leadership of music director and artistic director Gustavo Dudamel, presents an inspiring array of music from all genres – orchestral, chamber and Baroque music, organ and celebrity recitals, new music, jazz, world music and pop – at two of L.A.’s iconic venues: Walt Disney Concert Hall (www.laphil.com) and the Hollywood Bowl (http://www.HollywoodBowl.com). The LA Phil’s season extends from September through June at Walt Disney Concert Hall and throughout the summer at the Hollywood Bowl. With the preeminent Los Angeles Philharmonic at the foundation of its offerings, the LA Phil aims to enrich and transform lives through music, with a robust mix of artistic, education and community programs.

“The Wonderful World of Disney: Disneyland 60” is a production of Den of Thieves (MTV Video Music Awards, American Idol, MTV Movie Awards, Critics Choice Movie Awards, the Radio Disney Music Awards). Jesse Ignjatovic and Evan Prager are the executive producers. “The Wonderful World of Disney: Disneyland 60” is broadcast in 720 Progressive (720P), ABC’s selected HDTV format, with 5.1 stereo surround sound.

Jack Reynor & Logan Lerman Talk Star Wars Han Solo Spinoff (Video)

A couple of weeks ago saw the shortlist of actors Disney is eyeing to play the young Han Solo in the upcoming Star Wars anthology/spinoff movie hit the net, which included Logan Lerman (Fury) and Jack Reynor (Transformers: Age Of Extinction).

MTV recently caught up with the actors to get their thoughts.

“We’re talking about Harrison Ford. He’s no chump,” Reynor said. “You can’t do an imitation. You can’t try and just emulate what that is. It’s got to be something new. It’s also got to be something that the audience is going to respond to…. would be kind of an incredible gig to get.”

“I don’t think I’d be intimidated,” Lerman offered. “It would just be fun.” And as noted in the video below, Lerman said he’d have no problem being a “dick” to get into character of Han Solo.

The untitled Star Wars Han Solo anthology movie has a May 25, 2018 release.

 

Logan Lerman discusses rumors of him taking on the role of Hans Solo in the next Star Wars movie.

JJ Abrams Broke His Back Trying To Help Harrison Ford On Star Wars Set

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21579:]]

When Star Wars: The Force Awakens was filming, an accident occurred on set with the door of the Millennium Falcon crushing and injuring Harrison Ford.

Now it’s learned that Ford wasn’t the only casualty.

Director J.J. Abrams recently appeared on Jon Stewart where Stewart asked Abrams about the most recent Ford incident involving the air place crash. Abrams compared Ford to being a real life Marvel hero.

“The guy is like a real-life super hero,” Abrams said. “He should have the Marvel logo above his name.”

Abrams then recalled the Star Wars accident with Ford and the Millennium Falcon and let it be known he actually broke his back while attempting to help Ford.

“We actually were filming this scene and there was an accident on set. There was this hydraulic door that went down. He was pushed down and his ankle goes ninety degrees. He’s down there and he’s toughing it out. He’s a super human being. He’s literally lying there making jokes,” Abrams said. “This door had gone down, and I’m trying to help lift it up – because that’s the kind of guy I am. I’m trying to lift up this door and I feel this pop in my back. I’m like ‘Uh, that’s weird.’”

Abrams ended up going to the doctor a couple days later.

“[The Doctor] goes, ‘Oh you have a broken back,’” Abrams said. “I broke my L4 trying to lift this door.”

It turns out Abrams actually had to wear the brace longer than it took for Ford’s ankle to heal.

“A few months later I’m wearing this really silly back brace under my shirt. No one knows. I didn’t tell anyone, right. So I have this back brace on,” Abrams said. “Harrison Ford, from across the stage, sprints at me faster than I will ever run, and he’s like ‘hi, JJ,’ and I’m like ‘hi, Harrison ford,’ – oh, it hurts to talk that way – so I felt like the most nebbishy Jewish director ever.”

Abrams and Stewart continue with talk of how Ford is more than human.

“He’s a Miracle Man, and I’m like, ‘Excuse me, Mr. Darth Vader, could you be more evil?’”  Abrams said.

Josh Holloway Wants To Play Han Solo

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21311:]]

With a Han Solo movie in development, Josh Holloway let’s it be known he would love to play the character.

Yahoo spoke with Holloway, who happens to be a big Han Solo fan with even his Lost character having dropped Solo-esque wisecrack remarks.

“Damn. I’d love to do it. I love Han Solo,” Holloway said. “They’d never ask me, but I’d love to be Han Solo.

“You know, I got to arrest Han Solo in a movie once,” Holloway said, referencing 2013’s Paranoia. “I grabbed him, pulled his hands behind his back, cuffed him. He turned around and said to me, ‘You’re losing it, boy.’ Then I stuffed him in a car. But that might be as close as I get to Han Solo.”

The Star Wars Han Solo movie has a May 25, 2018 release directed by Christopher Miller and Phil Lord, executive produced by Lawrence Kasdan and Jason McGatlin and co-produced by Will Allegra, with a screenplay by Lawrence Kasdan and Jon Kasdan.

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21260:]]

With foreign audiences – and especially China – being an ever growing market for movie studios, it’s being reported Chinese action star Donnie Yen will be featured in Star Wars.

The report comes from Hong Kong’s Apple Daily that is stating Donnie Yen has signed on for Star Wars: Epiode VIII and will be going to London next month to start filming.

According to the site, Donnie Yen will play a Jedi and will be featured onscreen with Harrison Ford (who is yet to be confirmed for Star Wars: Episode VIII).

It’s also said other actors that were up for Yen’s role included Jet Li, Stephen Chow, Tony Leung Chiu Wai, Daniel Wu, Wang Leehom and Chang Chen.

It’s unclear how legit the rumor is as the Apple Daily is a Hong Kong gossip site.

Star Wars: Episode VIII has a May 26, 2017 release directed by Rian Johnson.

Yen is known for IP Man, Blade II and Highlander: Endgame.

New Indiana Jones Movie Rumored For 2018

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21065:]]

Could it be mere coincidence that following the colossal hall Jurassic World took at the box office, that rumors are now flying that a new Indiana Jones movie may be released in 2018?

It’s certainly possible that Disney took notice of Jurassic World’s success as the film stars Chris Pratt, who is/was rumored for the new Indy role, and Jurassic World is executive produced by Steven Spielberg, director on all four Indiana Jones movies.

While Pratt did deny the Indiana Jones rumor and said he and Spielberg never mentioned it, with Jurassic World having the best opening ever for a movie, Disney and Spielberg have to be at least thinking about using Pratt in some capacity (either as the new Indy or to star along side Harrison Ford).

Consider it all speculation right now, but according to AICN, Disney may be releasing a new Indiana Jones movie late 2018.

Last we heard about a potential new Indiana Jones movie was from Disney LucasFilm president Kathleen Kennedy who confirmed six weeks ago a new Indiana Jones movie will be made and is in development.

Chris Pratt as the new Indy is probably looking better than ever as of right now.
