With rumours of another film from the series in the air and a well-deserved Oscar nod for Gary Oldman now is a good time to revisit Tomas Alfredson’s adaptation of John LeCarre’s Tinker Tailor Solider Spy. The story is no stranger to the small screen with the Alec Guinness fronted BBC series being, until now, [...]
We’re now less than eleven months away from Peter Jackson’s return to Middle-earth with The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, the first of his two-part adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien’s original novel, followed by The Hobbit: There And Back Again next December. We’ve seen and heard some fantastic things from the new film already, most recently including [...]
*Advanced Plot Spoiler Warning: As you can probably guess from the title, things are going to get a little spoiler-y in a few lines, so if you’re wanting to fly fairly blind with The Hobbit, then look away now!* We first got word way back in June last year that Evangeline Lilly had been cast [...]
For a little over half a year, we’ve been treated to some brilliant things from Peter Jackson’s return to Middle-earth in bringing Tolkien’s The Hobbit to life, all of which you can catch up on right here. Just before Christmas, we were given an excellent new look at the film when the first trailer hit [...]
I’m in the hot seat today getting ready to live blog the War Horse UK press conference. Those expected to attend include Director Steven Spielberg, Producer Kathy Kennedy, and cast members Michael Morpurgo, Jeremy Irvine, Emily Watson, Tom Hiddleston, Benedict Cumberbatch and David Thewlis. I have my laptop here ready to go and all you [...]
This evening, London Town was the host for the Royal UK Premiere of Steven Spielberg’s new movie, War Horse. What made it even more special was that The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge (or William and Kate to their friends) were in attendance. Joining them was the legendary director himself accompanied by the main star [...]
So now we know that Benedict Cumberbatch will be playing a villain in J.J. Abrams’ new movie, Star Trek 2 which is set for release May 2013, however what we don’t yet know is the bad guy that he’ll be portraying or indeed what race / species he’ll be. So with no reason whatsoever, we [...]
Last night we put up the news that Noel Clarke was set to join J.J. Abrams in his sequel to 2009 movie, Star Trek (currently named Star Trek 2) and this morning, Deadline have put up the news that Benedict Cumberbatch who seems to be in everything at the moment is all set to join [...]
The game is afoot once again as Steven Moffat’s Sherlock returns to TV screens on the 1st of January to get 2012 off to a cracking start. Moffat and Mark Gatiss chose wisely with their two lead actors for the series which succeeded in bringing the famous detective up to date while retaining the distinct [...]
While a solid serving of Equine induced sniffles may be denied to us here in the UK on Christmas Day Steven Spielberg’s second film of the year enters cinemas across the pond in a couple of weeks and there’s a new clip available if you’re currently fence-straddled. This new clip is introduced by Jeremy Irvine [...]
This evening (well, it’s now 6.45 am so I guess it was last night!) Laura and I headed off to the brilliant venue, Old Billingsgate near London Bridge in the City of London to attend the 14th Annual Moet British Independent Film Awards. We’d never been to the event before and after seeing the incredible [...]
Dreamworks have released three new TV spots for their new movie, War Horse which is released 13th January. It stars Benedict Cumberbatch, David Thewlis, Tom Hiddleston, Emily Watson, David Kross, Peter Mullan, Eddie Marsan but from all I’ve seen so far, the real star is the horse which isn’t surprising considering the title. DreamWorks Pictures’ [...]
Spielberg seems to be trying another of his “one for the Oscars, one for the multiplex” years, much like 1993′s double-whamy of Schindler’s List and Jurassic Park. That worked out rather well for him, yielding what was then the highest ever grossing film at the box office (supplanting his own ET after some 11 years) [...]
We got the third video diary for Peter Jackson’s return to Middle-earth back in July, and now he’s given us the fourth instalment through his Facebook page, because he’s pretty awesome like that. In case you’ve missed them, you can catch up on all the earlier video diaries from The Hobbit and everything else surrounding [...]
There’s a new trailer for Steven Spielberg’s latest out today and if you were in any doubt as to the inspirational nature of this one then feast your eyes on this… Jeremy Irvine is the man Spielberg picked out to lead his adaptation of Michael Morpurgo’s novel and while the horse gets top billing it’s [...]
We’ve just been sent the first poster for Steven Spielberg’s latest film, War Horse, and we thought we’d share it with you. With Spielberg directing his version of Michael Morpurgo’s novel, itself already well-known as a stage play, we can expect a severe heartstring-tugging in amongst all the horseplay. The non-equine cast looks pretty solid [...]
Tomas Alfredson’s adaptation of John Le Carre’s celebrated novel Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy is a captivating piece of restrained direction and impeccable work from its ensemble cast – rarely has a film made good on its promise in quite this way. It is primarily the story of the hunt for a mole within the Secret [...]
Last night saw the ‘Hotly-Tipped-For-Oscar-Glory’ film version of the John le Carre’s book ‘Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy’ premiere at the BFI Southbank. We were there on twitter @HeyUGuysLive to keep yawl’ updated in real time as the action happened. Gary Oldman, Colin Firth, Tom Hardy, Benedict Cumberbatch and John Hurt, who all star in the [...]
