Penelope Cruz (Volver) has signed on to star in Venuto al Mondo. Cruz will reunite with director Sergio Castellitto for the long-gestating Italian war drama, which she hopes will be one of her next projects. In 2004, Cruz starred in Castellitto’s Don’t Move, which was met by lukewarm reviews upon its release. Cruz will be seen [...]
The success of In The Loop was gratifying to those here in the UK who have watched with splits sides in an atmosphere of air turned blue by Iannucci’s impeccable body of work. Beginning for me with his work with Chris Morris and the On the Hour (later The Day Today) team, through the often [...]

Quentin Dupieux, who last directed the cult killer tyre film Rubber, has posted a first look image from his next film Wrong.

Two new posters have been released to compound the wave of marketing for Pixar’s Cars 2, and they look so good that I don’t mind writing about this film again.

As the title suggests there’s a fair few new pieces of the X-Men: First Class puzzle out today, with pics and a TV spot adding a little more to momentum of this film. The TV spot has been up and down on Youtube for a few hours, so if it hasn’t been removed you can [...]

It seems that all of a sudden the interweb is bursting at the seams with spoilerific rumours aplenty, all relating to Superman: Man of Steel. Although Christopher Nolan (on producer/shepherd/godfather duties here) is a member of the JJ Abrams “tight-lipped is best” school of secrecy, there suddenly seems to be an awful lot of information [...]

The Stare will center on a playwright (Ryder) who finds her mind beginning to warp as she struggles to launch her next production. She’s plagued by dreams and visions of being watched, but can’t decide if she’s at [...]
Carnivals are great fun aren’t they? Rickety rollercoasters, fluffy toys bigger than your family pooch, and enamel-dissolving candy floss. Then again they also have the potential for giving you whiplash, a merry gypsy mugging or a mild aneurysm from attempting to get the ring around the bottle neck for the 32nd time in a row. [...]
Famed poster artist and king of the collage Tyler Stout has done it again and created a fitting tribute to cult favourite Akira. The film was recently screening at the Alamo Drafthouse in Austin, Texas during Mondo Mystery Movies – a film series where cinema visitors are left in the dark as to what film [...]

Whilst hunting around the Internet for more info on the amazing new HBO TV series, Game of Thrones, I ended up on the official GoT HBO site and came across this rather fantastic 25 minute video detailing the ‘making of’. It was so good, it needed to go up on HeyUGuys asap! The brand new [...]
On Friday evening I arrived at BAFTA HQ amongst an audience buzzing with lukewarm anticipation for a double billed preview of HBO’s latest sensational offering, Game of Thrones… but when I left they were absolutely beside themselves. If our screening was any sort of indicator as to how the general public will react when the [...]
There are two stories told on this Blu-ray release of Gareth Edwards’ Monsters. One is the critically acclaimed and highly accomplished sci-fi film depicting a desperate road trip through the dark heart of an alien infested no-man’s land in Central America and the other is the equally desperate process of making the film. Both are [...]
The cutting of a film trailer – a good film trailer, is a fine art. The quality of the choices you make, the shots you select, how you use the music and the decision to tease or to throw your best shots at the screen – all of these must be faced and for a [...]
I became aware of Les Diaboliques as part of my Uni based Hitchcock obsession, and the discovery that rights for the novel by Pierre Boileau and Thomas Narcejac were almost bought by Hitch ensured that I had to track down this film. That the film took me out of my self imposed exile on Planet [...]
