In addition to scribbling barely comprehensible copy for HeyUGuys, Ben has spent several years working in low budget film. One might imagine this has given him an insight into the production process - instead it has made him bitter, twisted and convinced of his own superiority. His life ambition is to run Disney.

Earlier this week we launched our Film Geeks at the Theatre strand on the site. As the title suggests, it’s a(n irregular) series of articles that look at theatre through the eyes of those of us who only, really know movies. It seems only appropriate to follow this up with a review of The Hot [...]
Not all that long ago there was a pretty clear distinction between a theatre actor and a film actor. Once in a blue moon you’d see an A-lister getting back to their roots with a role at the National Theatre, but on the whole the closest you’d get to a well-known thesp on a West [...]
For the Trekkie hard core, one of the things about Star Trek Into Darkness is how steeped it is in Trek Lore. From the opening moments to the final sequence it oozes nods, winks and outright head-turns to Trek canon. The net result of this is that neophytes to the franchise may well find themselves [...]
You have to wonder just how far the senior execs at ITV’s drama department got into the first episode of Sherlock before decided to rip it off. My guess would be not very. It must have been utterly galling, for a network whose dramatic output had thrived on shows about brilliant detectives like Poirot, Marple [...]
Last night, at the premiere of Star Trek Into Darkness, we spoke to writer/producer Damon Lindelof. It was, by the standards of press line interviews, pretty in depth, but it started out with the question: Without getting into anything too specific, at what point in the development process did the ideas that made this film [...]
There are hundreds of films vying for funds on Kickstarter and Indiegogo, and most of them are, to be blunt, not particularly interesting. Of course, there are exceptions, and one that caught our eye recently was Chuck Norris vs Communism. As the blurb on their Kickstarter page puts it: “Chuck Norris vs Communism tells the [...]
Throughout the day we’ve been running interviews with the cast of Iron Man 3, to mark the film’s UK release. We’re finishing off with what was by far our favourite interview: director, Shane Black and writer Drew Pearce. We say ‘interview’, because in the near half-hour we spent with them, we only managed to shoehorn [...]
Next up in our series of interviews with the stars of Iron Man 3 is Don Cheadle, who may be the most amusing man we’ve ever spoken to. Quick witted and sharp tongued, he also got pretty sweary pretty quickly, so it’s probably worth giving you a heads up before we get too far in. [...]
Earlier today we posted an interview with Rebecca Hall, the first in our series of interviews with the cast of Iron Man 3. Next up is Sir Ben Kingsley, who talks about finding the character of The Mandarin, joining the Iron Man team and how the industry has changed during the course of his career. [...]
Today sees Iron Man 3 hit cinemas in the UK (sorry Yanks, you’ve got another week to wait), our review is up here. To celebrate the release of what may be Marvel’s best movie to date we’re declaring today Iron Man 3 day at HeyUGuys, and running interviews with stars Rebecca Hall, Sir Ben Kingsley, Don [...]
When Bernie, the Jack Black-starring biopic of mortician/murderer Bernie Tiede, finally hits cinemas this week, it will have been 363 days since it went on release in the US, and over 18 months since it first screened in the UK at 2011’s London Film Festival. In the meantime it has been critically lauded, and picked [...]
Seems as if it’s Guardians of the Galaxy week on HeyUGuys. Yesterday we spoke to James Gunn at the Iron Man 3 premiere, where he answered our questions about several of the rumours surrounding the project. Earlier today, one of our readers pointed us at a casting call on a website called Universal Extras. As [...]
This evening was the UK premiere of Iron Man 3, and among the crowds of great and good heading down to watch the movie was Guardians of the Galaxy director, James Gunn. There have been all sorts of rumours surrounding Guardians, which will begin filming in the UK in a few months’ time, and so [...]
Right now I’m in the ballroom of the Dorchester Hotel in London, waiting for the Iron Man 3 press conference to start. When it does, we’ll be live blogging it from here.
At the moment two of the UK’s most interesting and talented directors are putting the finishing touches to their next projects: A Field in England is Ben Wheatley’s fourth feature, which he describes as “a mad piece of filmmaking” that follows a group of soldiers deserting from a battle during the English Civil War. Meanwhile, [...]
Yesterday I watched twenty minutes of footage from Iron Man 3. You can check out what I thought of it here. Alongside the footage, and a tasty selection of pastries, the folks from Disney also had another ‘treat’ for the assembled members of the press: the chance to become Iron Man. Digitally at least. And [...]
As with the Star Trek preview a couple of weeks ago, this preview comes with a caveat that it’s all too easy to make out of context footage look great, that said, as with the Trek preview, this wasn’t just small snippets cut together, but an extended sequence made up of several scenes. And that [...]
“If you’re directing a film, putting a film together, a series of choices: a hundred choices, two hundred, three hundred get made along the way, an every single decision is made with your particular taste, and your particular vision.” Tom Hiddleston explains, “even though it’s only 60 seconds long, you get a sense of someone’s [...]
Jonathan Nolan has been, at least in part, responsible for some of the biggest movies of the last decade. Working with his brother Christopher, Nolan scripted both The Dark Knight, and The Dark Knight Rises, as well as cult classics Memento and The Prestige. He’s recently been working on his own, as creator and showrunner [...]
Maniac hits cinemas today, a first-person remake of the 1980s cult horror flick, it’s either a really clever and tense tribute to a beloved original, or a horrible, exploitative, misogynist dirge supported by a trashy gimmick depending on your take. Love it or hate it, filming an entire movie in the first person is a [...]
