FX have ordered a new hourlong drama pilot, tentatively titled American Horror Story. Conceived by Ryan Murphy (Glee) and Brad Falchuk (Nip/Tuck), American Horror Story has been described as a “horror show with subversive sensibilities”. Produced by 20th Century Fox, Murphy will direct the pilot, which is set to lens in April. Casting is currently underway. Source: [...]
Mary Elizabeth Winstead (Scott Pilgrim vs. the World) has been cast as Mary Todd in Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, a role that had reportedly been awarded to Robin McLeavy (The Loved Ones). Winstead will star opposite Benjamin Walker (Kinsey), Anthony Mackie (The Hurt Locker) and Dominic Cooper (Tamara Drewe) in the adaptation of Seth Grahame-Smith’s mash-up novel. [...]
Michel Gondry seems to have quite a full slate at the moment, but that doesn’t appear to be stopping him from looking at new projects. The latest to be rumoured as being on his radar is a feature adaptation of Philip K. Dick’s “Ubik”, the story of a security firm, specialising in blocking telepathic espionage. [...]
Guillermo Del Toro’s 3D stop-motion animated adaptation of the Carlo Colodi fairy tale Pinocchio will begin production later this year. Gris Grimly will co-direct with Mark Gustafson, with The Jim Henson Company and Pathe funding the project. The adaptation, based on a 2002 illustrated version, was hatched by Del Toro and Matthew Robbins, and is [...]
Twentieth Century Fox have just sent us the new international trailer for the new movie, X-Men: First Class which has been given the release date 2nd June in the UK. The actual trailer (which I’ve placed below) is identical to the one that we put up last week except with a few different text prompts [...]
When talk turns to Korean revenge films, our thoughts tend to run to Park Chan-wook’s “Vengeance” trilogy in general and Choi Min-sik, a claw hammer and a corridor of goons in particular. Our next slice of Korean-style cinematic revenge comes courtesy of Kim Ji-woon’s I Saw The Devil and you can catch what we have [...]
With Christian Bale and Andrew Garfield donning the tights for Batman and Spider-Man respectively it seem appropriate that another Brit has been picked to pull on the cape of the Man of Steel and more details are emerging about how Zack Snyder found his man in Henry Cavill. In the latest edition of Entertainment Weekly [...]
It may not be instantly obvious, but HeyUGuys isn’t staffed by fourteen year old girls. Consequently, none of us are exactly what you might describe as Justin Bieber fans. Consequently, when a pair of tickets to the premiere of Never Say Never fell into our laps, there wasn’t exactly a fight for them. That said, [...]
Warner Bros. have just sent us this new fantastic gallery of images from their new movie. Ironclad. We were lucky enough to interview James Purfoy for the movie yesterday and that should be going up on the site in the coming days. Ironclad is out in the UK on March 4th; it is a bloody [...]
Nine infant aliens, who closely resemble humans, flee their home planet, Lorien, to hide on Earth. These last children of Lorien can be killed only in the sequence of their numbers. Alex Pettyfer is Number Four and it is he who is destined to die next. I caught up with both Alex and his Co-Star [...]
His favourite colour is purple. He can seriously play the drums. And he drives the ladies on all continents wild. Canada’s biggest social media export, a rather jet-lagged Justin Bieber, arrives to the UK to promote his new 3D film, Never Say Never, and picks up a Brit Award. The global mega star, accompanied by [...]
Sony have finally revealed their PlayStation Phone to the world and it’s full of surprises – not least it’s potentially crippling price tag. Reports suggest that the phone will have a US launch date of March, with the UK only a month behind. Orange and T-Mobile have already confirmed themselves as handlers, and Sony have [...]
This week has been completely nuts and I still can’t believe I get to do these things! In the last few days, I got to the BAFTAS, meet Sir Paul McCartney, have dinner with multiple Hollywood legends and now this evening (or last night by the time you’re reading this), Colin and myself got to [...]
If you’re a fan of slight variants in movie poster advertising then get ready to bookmark this one. Momentum for The Adjustment Bureau is building with a decent trailer and a time during the Superbowl for a high profile TV spot giving us an idea of what Matt Damon and co. are doing with Philip [...]
To celebrate the launch of this years biggest comedy, Knucklehead, our friends over at Clearvision have given us copies of this brand new release, to give to three lucky winners. Knucklehead is an enchanting comedy that follows the story of a low-rent con artist named Eddie Sullivan (Mark Feurnstein (Rules of Engagement, Royal Pains)), who [...]
There have been a great deal of trailers released so far this year showcasing the good and bad of films of 2011 and so far nothing has really caught my eye and engaged my eagerness as much as this Video Game trailer for the upcoming Zombie game “Dead Island”. As far as trailers go, Dead [...]
Vulture have announced plans for Martin Scorcese and Leonardo DiCaprio to re-team for a new movie called The Wolf of Wall Street. They recently worked together on Shutter Island and obviously the pain got on well. Ridley Scott was initially named to direct the movie which is based on the book by Jordan Belfort with [...]
The last time I saw Antoine de Caunes onscreen was years ago on Channel 4′s hugely successful and popular TV show, Eurotrash. I had absolutely no expectations of him as an actor in this movie so was pleasantly surprised to discover that he’s actually rather talented. This alternative French ‘Rom-Com’ is a bit of an [...]
A new clip for the Matthew McConaughey legal drama vehicle The Lincoln Lawyer as arrived and it’s tense and suspenseful in equal measure (how much that measure is though is up for debate), but having co-star William H. Macy looked concerned in long hair is always worth watching. You want a synopsis? I got a [...]
