When rumors of an Escape from New York reboot began a few years ago, Gerard Butler was the actor being considered to star as Snake Plissken, the dark anti-hero originally and indelibly portrayed by Kurt Russell. At the time, Russell stated the casting wouldn’t work as Snake, a quintessentially American character, needed an American actor. Fast forward to this...
Disney wants to make Emma Watson a princess. (Would Hermione Granger approve? Probably not.) Watson is in talks to play the lead role in the studio's live-action remake of Cinderella. Speaking of Disney, Vanessa Hudgens and Selena Gomez's upcoming movie, Spring Breakers, got a crazy new poster. It's a detailed look at what's inside a party girl's...
After what seems like a decade of rumors, false starts, troubled shooting and more, it's hard to believe that George Miller's Mad Max: Fury Road would ever be released, much less filmed.

The Road director John Hillcoat is tackling the Prohibition era in Lawless. With a cast of breakouts and veterans, it's filled with eye-catching performances. Unfortunately, the film suffers from a few fundamental issues that take it from poignant to mediocre.
If you’ve been living under a rock lately, or perhaps simply wandering amidst a post-apocalyptic wasteland made barren by the ravages of humankind’s greed while simply searching for a bit of gasoline and dog food, you may have missed out on the fact that director George Miller is expanding upon his original Mad Max trilogy by shooting a fourth...
Christopher Nolan actually filmed a scene that would have explained Bane's backstory to us, but when the time came, opted to leave it out of The Dark Knight Rises. In a recent interview with the film's costume designer, she revealed that there was flashback footage that would have probably provided us with a better understanding of Tom Hardy's villainous...
The Dark Knight Rises is Christopher Nolan's conclusion to his Batman trilogy. In a franchise-minded film industry that's a bold choice as most films these days are left open for more. But Nolan swears he's done so we have to believe that he and most of his cast are hanging up their capes and cowls. But do they send Batman out on a good note, or a brown one?

Despite the fact that The Dark Knight Rises opens wide on Thursday night at midnight, Warner Bros. is still churning out TV spot after TV spot and trailer after trailer for film, in what seems to be a bid to at least come close to The Avengers’ box office dominion earlier this summer—if not somehow better it.

But now there's two clips from the film. Check them out....
Just how many trailers can one film have? A teaser? Sure. A full trailer? Of course. A second full trailer? Why not? A third full-length trailer? Well… OK. A fourth trailer? Apparently so, because that’s what dropped late Tuesday: a trailer that begins as an ad for the entire Christopher Nolan Batman trilogy, before jumping into two minutes of new The Dark...
Well, we’re less than two weeks away from the release of 2012’s most anticipated film: The Dark Knight Rises. And while we don’t have anything too spoilery to give away—Joseph Gordon-Levitt is Robin!
