It’s difficult to imagine at this late stage in Harry Potter’s cinematic saga, but once upon a time in a galaxy not that far away Steven Spielberg had some very different plans for the franchise. The L. A. Times’ Hero Complex is reporting that Spielberg – whose Dreamworks Pictures were initially considered as financial partners for Warner [...]
With Christopher Nolan’s Inception unfolding onto an all-too-suspecting audience over the next two weeks rumours abound concerning one of his forthcoming producing gigs – the next throw of the die for Warner Brother’s Superman.

Last week, almost all of the cast of Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief descended on London to promote their new movie. Chris Columbus, the man who brought us Gremlins, Home Alone, Mrs Doubtfire, the first two Harry Potter movies and some film called The Goonies was with them and proved himself to be the [...]
With news breaking that Logan Lerman may be the new Spider-Man, it may detract us from remembering the movie that he’s currently travelling the globe to promote, that of Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief. I was lucky enough to meet Logan, his director Chris Columbus and his fellow cast members, Alexandra Daddario Brandon, T. [...]

Jackson, Alexandra Daddario, Sean Bean, Pierce [...]
