Adult World centers on a recent college graduate (Roberts) who believes she’s destined to be a great poet, instead winds up working for [...]
All that we’ve seen so far from James McTeigue’s upcoming thriller, The Raven, has been very promising, most recently with the new trailer at the end of last year. Directed by McTeigue, whose credits include the brilliant V For Vendetta, the cast is led by John Cusack in the lead role of renowned poet Edgar Allen Poe, [...]
This sort of thing can rapidly turn into a vanity project, so I will have to watch my step a little. Laudable as it is to try to bring to people’s attention some splendid films which they may not have seen, it can swiftly deteriorate into, “oh gosh, you haven’t seen Cube: Zero, what kind [...]
Lee Daniels began lining up a terrific cast for his follow-up to the Oscar-winning Precious earlier this year, when Zac Efron, Matthew McConaughey, Tobey Maguire, and Sofía Vergara were announced as coming on board The Paperboy. After a bit of a cast change-up, switching Maguire for John Cusack and Vergara for Nicole Kidman, and adding [...]
A new trailer has appeared online for John McTeigue’s film The Raven which takes a fictional swipe at the last days of poet of the night (not ‘of the night’ in a prostitute way, not nocturnal, you know what I mean) Edgar Allan Poe, and it’s rather nice. John Cusack beards up and takes on [...]
I won’t lie, I have all the time in the world for John Cusack. The man who brought us Being John Malkovich, Con Air, Grosse Pointe Blank, Identity and High Fidelity seems to rarely put a foot wrong and as that list shows, frequently puts it very right. The trailer for The Raven looks absolutely stunning, but [...]
When it was announced that James McTeigue had cast John Cusack in the role of Edgar Allan Poe in The Raven eyebrows were raised and expectations gamely followed. A fictionalised account of the author’s involvement in a police investigation of a serial killer using his work as inspiration seemed like a novel concept and some [...]
Scott Walker’s directorial debut will be worked from his own script for The Frozen Ground, the true story of a seemingly respectable family man, Robert Hansen, who turns out to be a serial killer. Over the course of more than a decade, Hansen kidnapped, then hunted and killed more than two dozen women in the [...]
1959. Four friends, Gordie, Chris, Teddy and Vern hear that a dead body has been found near the railway tracks many miles away from their home town of Castle Rock, Oregon. Although they are only 12 years old and expect a hiding from their parents, they hatch a plan to set off to find the [...]
We got our first official look at John Cusack as Edgar Allen Poe in the upcoming The Raven back in June, and he looked pretty fantastic. We then got an utterly stunning first poster for the film a month later, followed by a great batch of images, and then a second follow-up poster that was [...]
If you thought the first teaser poster for James McTeigue’s forthcoming movie The Raven was eye-catching, just wait until you see this latest one: the striking second teaser pares the design back to just the silhouette of a raven set against a scarlet background, with an ominous line of blood running down to the title [...]
John Cusack (Being John Malkovich) and Nicolas Cage (Kick-Ass) are in talks to star in The Frozen Ground. Set to be written and directed by relative newcomer Scott Walker, The Frozen Ground is based on true events surrounding Alaska’s most notorious serial predator, Robert Hansen. Emmett Furla Films, Amber Entertainment and Envision Entertainment will co-produce, [...]
James McTeigue (V for Vendetta, Ninja Assassin) is currently at Comic-Con in San Diego, drumming up support for his latest thriller The Raven, the poster for which we brought you only yesterday. That poster seems to very much have a style all its own and has raised considerable interest from me, where little previously existed. [...]
Relativity Media have released a couple of new images for their new movie, The Raven which is showing this weekend during Comic-Con which is currently taking place in San Diego. The movie stars John Cusack, Luke Evans, Alice Eve, Brendan Gleeson and Oliver Jackson-Cohen and it’s directed by James McTeigue. In this gritty thriller, Edgar Allan Poe (John [...]
Relativity Media have released the rather awesome first poster for The Raven ahead of the screenings which are taking place this weekend during Comic-Con. The movie stars John Cusack, Luke Evans, Alice Eve, Brendan Gleeson and Oliver Jackson-Cohen and it’s directed by James McTeigue. In this gritty thriller, Edgar Allan Poe (John Cusack, Being John Malkovich) joins forces [...]
It’s been a while since we’ve seen or heard anything from the set of John McTeigue’s next, The Raven, and frankly this first look at John Cusack as Edgar Allan Poe is only a step above the very first pics which leaked from the set and is nothing like as atmospheric as this beauty from [...]
John Cusack continues his trend of juggling the more serious pictures with lighter fare with news from Variety that he is set to headline a “screwball comedy of manners” called Dictablanda (Soft Dictator). The Hot Tub Time Machine star is also producing the flick through his company, and has co-written the script with Kevin Morris [...]
Almost exactly a month ago we got our first look at John Cusack as Edgar Allan Poe in John McTeigue’s The Raven, and while an on set pic of the man looking a little bored is all fine and well we’ve now got a far better look Cusack with the titular bird. The Huffington Post [...]
There was a definite raising of eyebrows and the quiet murmur of moderate intrigue when the announcement was made that John Cusack was to play Edgar Allan Poe in James McTeigue’s The Raven, and today we get our first look at the man and the facial hair. Looking far more like Poe than my appalling [...]
