Frankly, there’s not enough Megan Fox…
Variety is reporting that Tom Hiddleston has been tapped by Kenneth Branagh and Marvel Studios to put on the curly yellow horns of Loki to torment Thor in the upcoming movie. This news is hot on the heels of the confirmation that Chris Hemsworth (Star Trek’s George Kirk) will play the hammer weilding Norse god. Kenneth Branagh, who is prepping to direct “Thor” for a May 20, 2011, release, already had a relationship with Hiddleston, having co-starred with the actor in the BBC miniseries “Wallander.” The two were in a London stage production of “Ivanov.” Hiddleston also played Winston Churchill’s…
Dark Horse Entertainment has announced the next picture to come out of its production pact with Universal Pictures: The Secret, an adaptation of 2007’s critically acclaimed graphic novel and comic series.

Milam’s other projects currently in development include Bedlam for RKO/Twisted Pictures, Ab Tak Chhappan for Paramount Vantage with Jinks/Cohen producing, and Karnival at Rogue with Michael Zoumas producing.

Fresh off her triumphant solo directorial debut of Wonder Woman, Lauren Montgomery shifts gears from Amazons and mythology to intergalactic intrigue as the director of Green Lantern: First Flight, the fifth in the ongoing series of DC Universe animated original PG-13 movies. Montgomery has been a central force within the DC Universe animated original movies, directing one-third of the series’ initial film, Superman Doomsday, and wowing critics and fans alike with her solo directorial debut at the helm of Wonder Woman. With Green Lantern: First Flight, Montgomery takes the next step in her burgeoning career, directing the initial full-length story…
The box office estimates are in and Star Trek beamed to the number one spot, bringing in an estimated $76.5 million over the weekend. I had a chance to check the movie out on Saturday, and I liked it quite a bit. I think it did a good job of bridging the old Star Trek universe with the new one (I wore my F’Continuity T-Shirt just in case), and I like how they were able to tell an origin story without getting too over the top. I did have a few concerns and problems with the feature, but there were…
From Academy Award blockbusters Titanic and Milk to Emmy-nominated performances in Alias and Will & Grace to Tony Award nods for a lengthy list of leading roles on Broadway, Victor Garber has achieved acting greatness regardless of the format. Now add animation to his list of successes. In his animation debut, Garber masterfully crafts the voice for the calculating, villainous Sinestro in Green Lantern: First Flight, the fifth in the ongoing series of DC Universe animated original PG-13 movies. Warner Premiere, DC Comics and Warner Bros. Animation are set to release the all-new film – as a special edition 2-disc…
Even though X-Men Origins: Wolverine has moderate success in the box office, 20th Century Fox already has plans to make a second Wolverine movie, and today announced it was in development for a Deadpool spin-off movie. It is understood that Reynolds would regain the ability to mouth off, with the movie going back to the roots of the character known for his slapstick tone and propensity to break the fourth wall. The character also was disfigured in “Wolverine,” though it’s unclear at this time how much the studio would want to mess with Reynolds’ handsome mug. Currently the project is…
Is it any surprise that H’wood is already working on a sequel to X-Men Origins: Wolverine? The movie more than paid for itself over the weekend, prompting 20th Century Fox to begin development on the story that will be set in Japan focusing on the samurai/Yakuza storyline. I think the biggest problem with this idea, is it’s a 20th Century Fox idea.  The best Marvel Comics movies that have come out in the last decade have been the movies produced and distributed through Marvel. I don’t know how much money 20th Century Fox would want in the deal, but Marvel…
No, it’s not the Platinum Studios title that is finally made, but rather James Marsters donning the cowboy gear and attempting to kick some alien butt. James Marsters (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) and Cindy Sampson (Supernatural) star in this action-packed World Premiere thriller from RHI Entertainment, a small town in the untamed West comes under attack by a full-scale alien invasion. No one invited them, but nothing can stop them! All the goodness arrives June 1, 2009. More after the jump.

So the movie officially opened this past weekend, and brought in an estimated $87 million in the United States. For those who saw it in the theater, now it’s time for you to tell us what you thought? Better or worse than expected? Would you see another Wolverine feature film? And for those that illegally downloaded the film (and the FBI knows who you are), did you also go and see it in the theater? Was it radically different than what you downloaded? It’s your turn to chat it up! And if you want, give us a call at the…
He may be 54 years old, but Bruce Willis can still kick it as an action hero, and it looks like he’s going to take his rugged good looks to another comic book movie adaptation. In “Red,†Willis would portray a former black-ops agent who has gone into retirement but is forced back into action when a high-tech assassin comes a-callin’ to threaten him and his girlfriend. Lorenzo di Bonaventura and Mark Vahradian are producing, and Erich and Jon Hoeber are writing the screenplay, which is based on the WildStorm/DC Comic. (DC’s Gregory Noveck is exec producing.) I’ve not read…
