First Look: Miley Cyrus in The Last Song

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Disney, Adaptation, Drama, Trailers, Upcoming Releases


Could this be the tearjerker that makes us forget The Notebook?

In the latest Nicholas Sparks story, teen queen plays Ronnie Miller, a rebellious 17-year-old forced to spend time with her estranged father (Greg Kinnear). What could be a painful summer ends up taking a turn when she finds young love with a hottie (Liam Hemsworth) and common ground with her dad.

But as we already know, Sparks loves a dramatic twist. Could there be more this title, ? I’d bring my Kleenex just in case.

The movie opens April 2, 2010.

Clash of the Titans Trailers - Now and Then

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Warner Bros, Action, Adaptation, Adventure, Period, Remakes, Trailers, Upcoming Releases


Well - If that doesn’t have testosterone spelled all over it, I’m not sure what does.

Thought Prince of Persia looked a little too…Disney? Wishing Sam Worthington wasn’t a cyborg or a blue Jar Jar Binks? Need a good reason to dust off your useless Greek mythology knowledge?

In this new trailer for , Avatar‘s Worthington wields a sword as the heroic son of Zeus (Liam Neeson). The remake follows Perseus on his journey to battle Hades (Ralph Fiennes), the god of the underworld.

The updated version of Titans will open on March 26. Until then, you can rewatch the cheesy classic 1981 trailer starring Harry Hamlin after the jump.

500 Days of Summer Without the Script

Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Fox Searchlight, Independent, Romance, Comedy, Celeb News, Filmmaking, New Releases, Scripts, Videos

The cute overload that is 500 Days of Summer continues, as stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Zooey Deschanel performed an impromptu, short version of how the film would be without a script.

Set to present an award to the film’s screenwriters Scott Neustadter and Michael H. Weber, Gordon-Levitt and Deschanel ditched the teleprompter and offered a silent skit of the elevator/Smiths scene. Then the pair realized that they wouldn’t have had stage directions without a script and redid the scene appropriately (albeit, quite boring and proving a good point).

It’s nice to see actors who appreciate those other people working on a film.

New Sherlock Holmes Trailer Unveiled

Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Warner Bros, Action, Adventure, Classics, Family, Mystery, Comedy, Thrillers, Celeb News, Celebrity Gossip, Trailers, Upcoming Releases


If you’re pretending to be British and celebrating Guy Fawkes Day, you might as well keep up the charade by checking out the new trailer for Sherlock Holmes, starring Robert Downey, Jr. and Jude Law.

In what can only seem to be complete bad-ass-ness (smart jokes, narrated three-step guide to knocking someone out, Rachel McAdams, etc.), the film appears to have a good chance at holding its own during this Christmas Day’s battlefield for the box office.

What secret weapon does director Guy Ritchie have in store for the action-packed thriller? He calls it a family movie!

First Look: Angelina Jolie in Salt

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Columbia Pictures, Sony, Action, Thrillers, Trailers, Upcoming Releases


In this new trailer for Salt, rocks heels, climbs walls and wields guns. In other words, it’s your typical day for the mother of six.

The film, which was originally set to star Tom Cruise, tells the story of a CIA agent who may or may not be a Russian spy. While the story reminds me a great deal of Kevin Costner’s No Way Out, the visuals are more in line with Jolie’s Wanted.

- also starring Liev Schreiber and Chiwetel Ejiofor - opens July 23.

First Look: Prince of Persia Trailer

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Disney, Action, Adaptation, Adventure, Trailers, Upcoming Releases


When a movie combines The Mummy, Indiana Jones, Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings, it’s bound to be a hit. And in this case, also has a beefed up Jake Gyllenhaal and a Bond girl (Gemma Arteron) to boot.

So will this trailer get you in the doors? Doesn’t matter—I’m sure Disney’s already got a new theme park ride in the works.

Prince of Persia opens on May 28.

Sneak Peek: New Video Clip From Nine

Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Weinstein Company, Adaptation, Drama, Musicals, Romance, Casting, Filmmaking, Trailers, Upcoming Releases, Videos

Rob Marshall’s new film Nine is epic.

For one, the cast is impeccable: Daniel Day-Lewis, Penelope Cruz, Marion Cotillard, Nicole Kidman, Judi Dench, Sophia Loren, Kate Hudson, and Stacy “Fergie” Ferguson. That’s 7 Oscar wins and 11 Oscar nominations between them!

Secondly, this video—spliced with rehearsal footage and new clips of the film—just makes me more excited for musical (that could be my Chicago and Moulin Rouge fangirl in me). Having been partially based on Federico Fellini’s autobiographical 8 1/2, I can’t see why it won’t please audiences.

I suppose we shall find out on its opening day, December 25th; in the meantime, enjoy the video!
