Brian Geraghty, Alice Eve and Josh Peck must face off against a mad man while trapped in an ATM booth in ATM, the latest midnight movie from IFC. The trailer sets up the premise: three co-workers, with one having a crush on the other, stop for some cash before a late night snack, and end up held hostage by a snow-coated man. Check out the trailer…
This week has offered a flurry of news on J.J. Abrams‘s Star Trek reboot sequel – tentatively titled Star Trek 2 – which is scheduled for release May 17, 2013. Though we’ve yet to see a replacement for the main villain since Benecio Del Toro dropped out on Monday, there are more things to relay about the cast and the villain.
We have some good and bad news to report regarding the upcoming Edgar Allen Poe adaptation, The Raven. The film has lost a star in Oscar nominee Jeremy Renner, but has gained two in his place. According to THR, British thespians Luke Evans (he’s been in everything lately) and Alice Eve are in talks to join the cast led by John Cusack.
For those of you who have been following the X-Men First Class casting drama, this news will confirm your worst fears. Yesterday, it was announced that January Jones (“Mad Men“) had been hired to play Emma Frost in the film, even though Alice Eve (She’s Out of My League) landed the part weeks prior. This move made no sense and left a lot of us wondering what the hell happened. According to ComicBookMovie Eve originally had the role but left it willingly because she didn’t like the script. Not a good sign…
Alice Eve caught the attention of U.S. audiences when she played the gorgeous blond in this year’s She’s Out of My League. After that breakthrough, she was linked to a few high profile films including the comic adaptation, Captain America. She was one of the many actresses in the running to play the superhero’s love interested Peggy Carter but lost out to fellow Brit, Hayley Atwell. That’s OK because according to Deadline, she’s just been cast as Emma Frost in Fox’s X-Men First Class!
After Emily Blunt turned down the role—owing perhaps to the fact that her main squeeze, The Office’s John Krasinski, lost the chance to put on the blue tights—rumors are swirling today that Alice Eve, the recent bombshell star of She’s Out of My League, is in the running for the role of Peggy Carter, Captain America’s girlfriend in the upcoming First Avenger: Captain America film.
According to E! Online:
The insanity surrounding Captain America continues to get grow with the latest batch of rumors surrounding the film. Multiple sources are reporting that Channing Tatum is now up for the role of Steve Rogers, and Keira Knightley, Emily Blunt, and She’s Out Of My League star Alice Eve could appear as his female lead. I knew his name would pop up in this race sooner or later.
The early-year string of romantic comedies gets a major upgrade this week as the charming She’s Out of My League rolls into theaters. With its mix of great gags and sparkling chemistry throughout the entire cast, this movie separates itself from the usual rom-com fare, but not too far.
Check out the full review below. . .
Jay Baruchel seems like such a sweet guy, which is why he’s believable at playing the shy, nerdy character in all of his films. While he’s mostly known for his supporting roles, he’s gotten a rare opportunity to star as the lead. In She’s Out of My League he plays an Average Joe, who lands a model girlfriend, and has no idea what to do with her. The first trailer has been released for the film, which looks like a mash up between The 40 Year Old Virgin and The Truth About Cats and Dogs…
