Joseph Gordon-Levitt Reviews, Interviews & More
Don Jon’s Addiction (read our review), the directorial debut of actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt (who also penned the film, and starred) tells the tale of a walking, talking version of The Jersey Shore who is addicted to internet pornography—so much so that despite his ability to bring home gorgeous gals, he tends to stick with the pornography. As such, when...
South by Southwest's annual film festival and concert series has - like its fall cousin Fantastic Fest - become one of the coolest festivals around. Where Sundance may launch the biggest independent films of the years, and places like Cannes and Toronto highlights the best in foreign films, and preview the film's big Oscar pictures, SXSW have carved a spot out as the one where you're going to...
Well, the 2013 Sundance Film Festival has come to an end, and the award winners have been announced. From documentaries to fictional works, dark dramas to comedies, an eclectic grouping of films rose to the top of the fest, and we have the complete listing of winners below.
Actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt makes his feature directorial debut with Don Jon’s Addiction at this years Sundance Film Festival. A triple threat, Gordon-Levitt also stars in and writes the comedy, which focuses on his character’s journey to finding a more fulfilling sex life. Probably one of the most refreshing and unique comedies at the fest, this film does more...
The 2013 Sundance Film Festival has been good to Joseph Gordon-Levitt—in addition to hiring the actor to host the Sundance Awards Ceremony on January 26, as well as premiering his feature-length directorial debut, that very debut (Don Jon’s Addiction) is now getting a wide release, thanks to Sundance.
We've been hearing all sorts of rumors about the upcoming Godzilla film, but one thing is for certain: casting is happening right now because shooting is set to commence in March. Though we've heard about a number of performers being considered for the project, it looks like Warner Brothers has their eye on a new leading man: Aaron Johnson.
When he’s not too busy being rumored to star as Batman in the Justice League, or as the star of Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy project, Joseph Gordon-Levitt actually gets officially cast in things. Case in point: Dimension Films has announced that the actor will star in the extremely anticipated Sin City: A Dame to Kill For.
Though Godzilla won't start shooting until March and won't be released until May 2014, there's been a lot of changes behind the scenes regarding who's involved with the project both in front and behind the camera. A lead actor shortlist has emerged, while Frank Darabont has been hired to do a rewrite and two producers have left the project.
There truly are only a handful of actors that can maintain their blockbuster and indie-darling credibility simultaneously, and Joseph Gordon-Levitt is the poster child as to how it all works. He's taken his time working up all the film ladders and is a role model for actors and filmmakers everywhere, so it only makes sense that he should host the 2013 Sundance Film Festival feature film Awards...
It must be good to be Joseph Gordon-Levitt—the gifted actor not only starred in some of 2012’s biggest and best films (The Dark Knight Rises, Lincoln and Looper), he was (still is?) one of the frontrunners for Bruce Wayne/Batman in the upcoming Justice League film series, as well as the Batman cinematic reboot. And now, the lucky guy is now “in the...
Warning: The Dark Knight Rises spoilers ahoy! (Seriously, have you really not seen that movie yet?)
The instant news broke that Warner Bros. was launching a The Justice League film, one of the very first questions asked was how the franchise would handle Batman. Christian Bale then stated he...
When focusing on the nation's greatest president during its darkest time, a filmmaker has to tread carefully. Their work can either blow you away or turn into a dull history lesson. Luckily, Lincoln is the former. Steven Spielberg delivers what's easily one of the best movies of the year.
Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence are creating quite a lot of buzz with their upcoming movie Silver Linings Playbook. Peter Travers even said that he predicts Lawrence will win the Oscar for her performance. The movie looks like a quirky love story between two dysfunctional characters, and the new trailer explores their personalities a bit more. Also, Adele debuted...
In this day and age, most directors rely on special effects to tell their story. From the many who have emerged over the past decade, Rian Johnson stands above the rest. He continues to showcase his sharp skills in his new sci-fi film Looper. ScreenCrave recently spoke with the rising filmmaker about his creative process, his directing idols...
Frequent collaborators Rian Johnson and Joseph Gordon-Levitt are at it again. This time, the pair tackles sci-fi with the timebending thriller, Looper. The film co-stars Bruce Willis as an older version of Gordon-Levitt's character, giving the story an interesting twist. Looper treads the line of pure science fiction by blending elements from other...
The fall movie season is shifting into high gear. As September comes to a close, fans are ready for a variety of films to bite into. One of them being Rian Johnson's Looper, the director's first venture into the sci-fi genre. The movie takes place 30 years into the future where time travel has been created but outlawed. A secret group of men called Loopers, are...
This weekend Joseph Gordon-Levitt will be hosting Saturday Night Live to promote his upcoming movie Looper. And though it's hard to say that Mr. Gordon-Levitt is a big movie star after Premium Rush tanked, we couldn't be more excited for both Looper and his SNL...
One of the more annoying trends in movie marketing lately has been the ‘trailer for a trailer,’ in which a film releases a trailer letting you know when the full trailer is coming. So now, Lincoln has a teaser trailer letting us know the full trailer will be out on Thursday, September 13th. Great. Dig the slivers of new Lincoln footage below.
Christopher Nolan has said he's done with Batman. He's been saying it for a while. And even though The Dark Knight Rises is closing in on a Billion dollar worldwide gross, it's unlikely he'll be swayed. But it's not as if he didn't leave Warner Brothers some options, and those options might be pursued in the Justice League movie.
Towards the end of summer, audiences are given buckets of lackluster films. Most of us associate August with being showered with dull cinematic messes, while anticipating Oscar season. But every once in a while we're blessed with a fun-loving, stupidly over-the-top movie like Premium Rush. It may not be the greatest thing to hit theaters, but it fits the bill...
