New poster for ‘The Monkey King 2′ falls from the sky! Posted: 20 Mar 2015 01:42 AM PDT THE MOVIE: The Monkey King had the highest-grossing opening day in China, even surpassing Iron Man 3, so it’s no wonder a Donnie Yen-less sequel (and its promotional poster) was revealed at last year’s Cannes Film Festival. The sequel’s plot is being kept under wraps, but here’s what we know so far: Cheang Pou-soi is returning to the director’s chair. Sammo Hung is taking over Donnie Yen’s duties as action choreographer. Additionally, Aaron Kwok is also taking over Yen’s role as lead character from the previous film. The Monkey King 2 will also star Gong Li, Feng Shaofeng, Xiaoshenyang and Him Law. The film, which will be shot in 3D, has a release date set for February 8, 2016. Updates: A new poster for Monkey King 2 has arrived. – Thanks to Sam the Man |
French poster for Jason Statham-less ‘Transporter Refueled’ Posted: 20 Mar 2015 12:00 AM PDT Luc Besson’s company, EuropaCorp, is releasing The Transporter Refueled on June 19th. The new film, directed by Camille Delamarre (Brick Mansions), will center on the lead character’s origin story, which not only makes it a reboot, but also a prequel. Official plot: Frank Martin is the most highly-skilled transporter money can buy. The stakes are greater and technology better, but the same three simple rules apply: never change the deal, no names and never open the package. When Frank is hired by cunning femme fatale Anna and her three stunning sidekicks, he quickly discovers he’s been played. The Transporter Refueled stars Ed Skrein (Game of Thones), Loan Chabanol, Lenn Kudrjawizki, Tatiana Pajkovic, Ray Stevenson and Radivoje Bukvic. Updates: Yesterday, the film’s first first trailer and Michael Clayton-style poster were revealed. Today, the French poster for Transporter Refueled arrives! |
New ‘Mad Max Fury Road’ Japanese trailer is pure insanity! Posted: 19 Mar 2015 12:00 AM PDT THE MOVIE: George Miller (Mad Max Trilogy) returns to the post-apocalyptic-action franchise that put him on the map. Tom Hardy is taking over the role of Max Rockatansky, formerly played by Mel Gibson. Also starring Charlize Theron, Nicholas Hoult, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Zoë Kravitz, Riley Keough and Hugh Keays-Byrne. Note: this will be the first Mad Max to incorporate CG elements. Updates: Batch of set photos. | Collider reports that Megan Gale – who almost played Wonder Woman in Miller's cancelled Justice League film – will finally get to team up with the director in Mad Max 4: Fury Road. Director George Miller finally revealed something of a summary via this official press release. Quote: “Mad Max (Tom Hardy) is caught up with a group of people fleeing across the Wasteland in a War Rig driven by the Imperator Furiosa (Charlize Theron). This movie is an account of the Road War which follows.” | New set photos. | The first look at Tom Hardy as Max. | Production video. | The Playlist reports that Dutch electronic composer and producer Junkie XL (aka Tom Holkenborg) will be doing the soundtrack. Dark Horizons reports that Tom Hardy is going back for more filming. Here’s what he told Flicks and the City: ”[The movie]‘s great. It’s a big old piece; it’s a behemoth of a piece. I’m off there next week to do some reshoots, well not reshoots actually, but doing more. We’re building, building more Mad Maxes, even more spectacular and cool stuff.” | According to EW, Mad Max 4: Fury Road is set to hit theaters on May 15, 2015. The new theatrical date makes it 30 years since Mad Max 3: Beyond Thunderdome was released. Let’s hope it’ll be worth the wait. The Sydney Morning Herald recently interviewed George Miller where he debunked rumors of a Mel Gibon cameo. However, he did mention that Max’s famous Interceptor will appear. As far as the movie, here’s what Miller said: "Our film, luckily after a ridiculous amount of work, is testing extremely well…We're very happy. There has been a lot of doubt about it, [people saying] 'it took so long', but Warners have delayed it until 2015 to go into the top weekend of the year." Director George Miller told EW that the film has very few digital effects, intense action, linear story, very little dialogue and "a chase that starts as the movie begins and continues for 110 minutes." | New photos from George Miller’s Mad Max Fury Road: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | First poster is here! In addition, here’s the newest official image of Max. | Feast your eyes on 4 action packed posters: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | Watch the first trailer. So, is Tom Hardy playing the same Mad Max, or is it a completely different and new Mad Max? Here’s what George Miller told Collider: “Yes and no. Yes, of course, it's based on the same character that Mel [Gibson] played… But naturally, Tom brings his Tom Hardy-ness to it. He brings another quality. And the character is different, to some degree, because the story is different. So, it's a yes and no answer. Yes, it's different, but no, he's essentially grown out of the same material.” | New photos reveal Charlize Theron as a one-armed warrior!
