Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje Joins 'Suicide Squad' as Killer Croc Posted: Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje may be suiting up for yet another superhero movie: According to TheWrap, he'll play Killer Croc in "Suicide Squad." The site reports that Akinnuoye-Agbaje, who played dual roles in Marvel's "Thor: The Dark World," is switching comics allegiances and will portray reptilian Batman baddie Killer Croc (alias: Waylon Jones) in the DC comics supervillain team-up flick. The actor and studio Warner Bros. declined to comment on TheWrap's report. If true, Akinnuoye-Agbaje's casting would be yet another big get for the ensemble, which is already stacked with stars. The "Lost" and "Oz" alum would re-team with his "Concussion" co-star Will Smith, who plays Deadshot. The rest of the "Squad" cast includes Jared Leto (The Joker), Viola Davis (Amanda Waller), Joel Kinnaman (Rick Flagg), Margot Robbie (Harley Quinn), Jai Courtney (Captain Boomerang), Cara Delevingne (Enchantress), and Jay Hernandez (El Diablo). TheWrap reports that Jesse Eisenberg is also expected to reprise his Lex Luthor role from "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice," and Scott Eastwood is rumored to appear as a love interest for Wonder Woman in the flick. "Suicide Squad," directed by David Ayer ("Fury"), is due in theaters on August 5, 2016.

The New 'Mad Max: Fury Road' Trailer Is Basically 'Fast and Furious: Apocalypse Edition' (VIDEO) Posted: A new, bats--t insane trailer for "Mad Max: Fury Road" is here, and like the flick's other teasers before it, it's full of explosions, car chases, and creepy dudes in masks and chains -- all seasoned with an apocalyptic flavor. This time around, the clip focuses more on the villains, led by Immortan Joe (Hugh Keays-Byrne), who straps on a horrifying teeth-filled mask as he makes odd proclamations before screaming masses. He's also consumed by the need to recapture a group of comely lasses who have escaped his clutches. Leading the charge against him are Charlize Theron and Tom Hardy, with the latter explaining what's driving him to fight back. "As the world fell, each of us in our own way was broken," he intones. "It was hard to know who was more crazy: me, or everyone else." If we had to go out on a limb, we'd guess "everyone else," but who are we to judge? In the world of "Fury Road," it seems that insanity is the new black. "Mad Mad: Fury Road" is directed by original "Mad Max" mastermind George Miller. It's due in theaters on May 15.

Ciara Renee to Play Hawkgirl in 'The Flash' & 'Arrow' Spinoff Posted: The CW's developing "The Flash" and "Arrow" spinoff has added a new leading lady. Deadline reports that Ciara Renee will play Hawkgirl -- whose real name is Kendra Saunders -- in the still-untitled series, which will bring together the casts of the above superhero series as well as some new characters. Per the trade:
Renee, a relative newcomer, is currently best-known for her work on Broadway, where she's appeared in shows including "Pippin" and "Big Fish." She also made a guest turn on "Law & Order: SVU" last fall. According to Deadline, the spinoff is still looking to cast three lead roles -- two males and a female -- of DC superheroes that have never been portrayed on television before (Hawkgirl made a previous appearance on The WB's "Smallville"). Stay tuned to see who else will join Renee in the series. [via: Deadline] Photo credit: Getty Images This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |

Fox Renews 'New Girl' for Season 5 Posted: "New Girl" has charmed the execs at Fox, and is sticking around for a little while longer. TVLine reports that the network has renewed the sitcom for a fifth season, which has already begun production to accommodate star Zooey Deschanel's pregnancy (which will not be written into the show). The series returns from a brief hiatus tonight. "Four seasons in, 'New Girl' continues to be one of the smartest and most relatable comedies on television," said Fox entertainment president David Madden in a statement. "The writing is razor-sharp, the ensemble is consistently hilarious, and we couldn't be more proud of... the entire 'New Girl' team. We absolutely love this show and we're so excited to bring it back for Season Five." Coming up in the last batch of season four episodes, "Saturday Night Live" star Taran Killam will guest star as a love interest for Jess, and the show will say goodbye to Coach (Damon Wayans Jr.), who's leaving the series for a second time. TVLine also reports some news about season five: John Cho ("Selfie," "Sleepy Hollow") is set to have a guest arc sometime during the upcoming season, and "will play a guy Jess meets when she excitedly reports for Jury Duty." "New Girl" airs on Tuesday at 9 p.m. on Fox. [via: TVLine] Photo credit: Autumn DeWilde/FOX This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |

ABC Family Orders 'The Mortal Instruments' Series 'Shadowhunters' Posted: After flopping at the box office, "The Mortal Instruments" is getting new life as a TV series. According to The Hollywood Reporter, ABC Family has ordered "Shadowhunters," based on the novels by Cassandra Clare, straight to series, with the adaptation eyed for 13-episode first season. THR reported back in October that production company Constantin Film wanted to turn the franchise into a "high-end drama" series in order to "go deeper and explore this world in greater detail and depth" than a film franchise could. The move is also financial, since the 2013 big screen adaptation, "The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones," starring Lily Collins and Jamie Campbell Bower, only accrued $31 million at the domestic box office, cancelling plans for a movie sequel, "City of Ashes." As in the film, "Shadowhunters" will center around Clary Fray, who discovers on her 18th birthday that she comes from a long line of human-angel hybrids who hunt demons in their spare time. After her mother goes missing, she's thrust into the world of the Shadowhunters, with the mysterious Jace and her best friend Simon by her side. "'Shadowhunters' is a big, epic saga that will resonate with viewers who come to ABC Family for the 'Harry Potter,' 'Hunger Games' and 'Twilight' franchises," said ABC Family president Tom Ascheim in a statament. "A New York Times best-seller for 122-consecutive weeks, with over 35 million copies in print worldwide, 'Shadowhunters' is the perfect story to share with our audience." No word yet on casting. Production is expected to begin in May. [via: The Hollywood Reporter] This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
'The Breakfast Club': Molly Ringwald and Ally Sheedy Look Back 30 Years Later (EXCLUSIVE) Posted: Last week the Internet had a collective heart attack as it became apparent that the anniversary of the day that "The Breakfast Club" is supposed to take place happened 31 years earlier. Of course, "The Breakfast Club" is a movie and not a historical document (one that came out 30 years ago), but that doesn't matter. Because talking about John Hughes's immortal classic is fun and people will do it at every conceivable juncture. "The Breakfast Club," of course, starred Emilio Estevez, Anthony Michael Hall, Judd Nelson, Molly Ringwald, and Ally Sheedy, as a group of disparate teens united for a Saturday's worth of detention (Paul Gleason very memorably essayed the role of the meddling principle -- "I make over $30,000 a year!"). Recently, to celebrate the movie's anniversary and commemorate the newly released (and truly incredible deluxe edition Blu-ray package), the film held a pair of screenings in Austin, Texas, as part of the South by Southwest Film Festival. At one screening, in the morning, they handed out pastries -- hey, it is the Breakfast Club after all! That's where we were given the unique opportunity to sit down with Sheedy and Ringwald, actresses who gained immediate superstardom for the movie (with the press naming them as two members of the Hughes-cultivated Brat Pack) and are still talking about it today. While this kind of retrospective discussion can drive some actors up the wall, they were both gracious and lovely. We talked about whether or not they immediately recognized that the film would be a classic, why John Hughes didn't have any gay or ethnic characters in the script, and whether or not the movie would (and should) ever be remade. Put on the Simple Minds theme song (really loud) and take a walk down memory lane, won't you? Moviefone: When you first read the script did you have any idea it would be a classic? Ally Sheedy: I loved doing the movie and I felt like it was a special experience and I thought it would probably turn out really well but I had no idea it would be this. Molly Ringwald: I knew that it was special and like nothing else I had ever read before or since and I knew I wanted to be involved immediately. I loved it. It was my favorite script that I had read of John Hughes's. But how could you possibly know that we'd still be talking about it thirty years later? Is that the thing that most people still come up to you to talk about? Ringwald: For me, it's one of the three movies I've done for John and it happens to be my favorite of the three. But there are other people who love "Sixteen Candles" or some people think I was great in "St. Elmo's Fire..." Sheedy: And you were! What about you, Ally? Sheedy: Well, I live in New York, so people talk to me about "Breakfast Club," "High Art," and because I work with these high school kids, I hear about this crazy character I play on "Psych" a lot. I can't believe kids are watching "Psych." Sheedy: I don't know what to say! But they go nuts! The new Blu-ray has this trivia track that runs along the bottom of the screen. One of the more interesting bits was that you guys shot in sequence. Is that true? Ringwald: Yeah, pretty much. How did that affect your performances? Ringwald: I think it helped a lot, definitely. Because by the time we got to that group therapy moment we already knew each other really well. We were actors and it's possible to shoot out of sequence and still do it. But I think it really helped. And you were taking classes while this was going on? Ringwald: I was, because I was so young. So Anthony Michael Hall and I were 15 and 16 and Ally and Emilio and Judd were in their 20s. Were you taking classes in the same high school where you were shooting? Ringwald: Yeah, pretty much. Sheedy: It was actually tutoring. That's what they had to do. There was an hourly thing with the union. So they would shoot and then have to leave the set and go do work. So you weren't showing up to Home Ec down the hall? Ringwald: No no no. I had a studio teacher who was with me on most of those movies, who I loved dearly. She was great. She was Jodie Foster's teacher and then she was mine and then she was Winona's. Sheedy: Fair enough. Ringwald: But she was great. She really made the experience as great as possible because it was hard to actually have to leave the set. "Sixteen Candles" was shot during the summer, so I got to be on set all the time, but it was hard to have to leave because it seemed like there was a party going on without me. It was very frustrating. Do you think this movie would be made today? Ringwald: No, I don't. Nobody would let it be rated R. Ringwald: Probably not. There would have to be a vampire in there, at some point. Sheedy: There would have to be a sex scene. Ringwald: Yeah, there would have to be a sex scene in it. Sheedy: Somebody would have to get undressed. And there would have to be some kind of special effects. I think it might be meaner if they made it today. Would you change anything about it? Ringwald: Obviously, if they ever made a "Breakfast Club"-like movie, I don't think they should ever remake "The Breakfast Club," but if they did something inspired by, I think it would be interesting to have something with more racial diversity. One of the kids probably should have been gay. Ringwald: Oh, definitely. John didn't have the vocabulary for that. I'm convinced that in "Pretty in Pink" Ducky is gay, because that character was based on my best friend Matt who is gay, who was not out at that time but we had a very similar relationship. But that just wasn't in his vocabulary. Also, John became very conservative later in life. Did you know that? It was very strange. Sheedy: Yeah. Did you guys keep in touch with Hughes? Ringwald: Um... No. Not really. We came back into contact and I had always hoped that we would work together again in some way, but we weren't close. Sheedy: I got to hang out with him a little bit because I did this movie "Only the Lonely." Ringwald: Oh, with John Candy? Sheedy: Right. And he was a producer on that one. He was living in New York at some point, right? Sheedy: He may have been but he was only in Chicago at that point, so I got to go to Chicago to do it and spend a whole bunch of time with him. Ringwald: I think once his family moved to LA and then hated it and moved back to Chicago, he never left Chicago again. Do you keep in touch with your costars? Ringwald: We see each other, usually at some event or a tribute or something. Or out of the blue. I know that some of you dated and were very good friends. Do those emotions ever come back? Ringwald: It was a long time ago. Life soldiers on. Sheedy: Yeah! Ringwald: I've been with somebody for 14 years and have 3 kids so I think I'm pretty well ensconced. How does it feel to come back and introduce the movie to a whole new generation? Do you feel like the ambassadors of planet "Breakfast Club"? Sheedy: It's fun. You feel good about the movie and the experience, so it's nice. Ringwald: Yeah, I think the movie has become so beloved and it's been discovered by so many generations without our help. It's incredible. Everybody in my daughter's school has seen it and they're 11. So I feel really proud to be a part of the movie. Sheedy: This is a very cool thing, that South by Southwest did this big screening, that they're re-releasing this DVD and putting it back into movie theaters. It's pretty joyous. If you didn't know that it was immortal when you read it, looking back on it, what do you think makes it such a timeless classic? Ringwald: You can take that one. Sheedy: I think it takes a group of five teenagers and very realistically puts their lives on the screen. They're basically normal; anybody could relate to them, there's nothing huge going on. But it's that their experience at that time matters enough and is interesting enough to make a movie about without embellishing. And I think for a young person, seeing that, it's like, Oh, that's me up there and somebody cares about my story. Ringwald: And also, the issues that we're dealing with haven't really changed. I just noticed from watching my kids grow up, that political atmosphere of cliques at school, the bullying, the feeling that you don't belong that everyone feels no matter who they are, those themes really still resonate today and probably always will.

Don't Mess With Melissa McCarthy in New 'Spy' Trailer Posted: Can't imagine Melissa McCarthy as a deadly and dangerous spy? Well, she can have "Cagney" (left fist) and "Lacey" (right fist) explain it to you! In a new, longer "Spy" trailer, McCarthy transforms from a mousy, desk-bound CIA analyst to full-on Bond. She's tapped to lead a mission after the identities of the CIA's field operatives are discovered by villain Rayna Boyanov (Rose Byrne). Everyone, from her boss (Allison Janney) to a fellow agent (Jason Statham), doubts her ability to rise to the occasion, but this is Melissa McCarthy, folks! She's about to kick ass and take names. "Spy" opens in theaters June 5. This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
'Dancing With the Stars' Recap: Most Couples Sizzle and Few Fizzle on Latin Night Posted: It's Latin Night on "Dancing with the Stars," dance fans, and I was preparing myself for a night of slightly raunchy choreography. I'm so happy to say, it wasn't like that at all. Even the great opening number (choreographed again by Mandy Moore) and the post-break in-betweeners have more actual dancing and less strutting and posing than they did last season. Tom Bergeron is his usual hysterical self, and even Erin Andrews is getting more comfortable with the gig, getting some good jokes in. At week three, the judges are getting pickier, and the contestants have come down a little after last week's stellar round. But they've all rallied pretty well, and some dancers are still leading the pack. Let's check out My Top 5: Rumer & Val's Disco Salsa: Rumer and Val start the night off with a bang and a smoking hot Disco Salsa. She's awesome, and clearly fearless, as Val said, going for that lift so hard in rehearsal that she busted Val's lip with her crotch! Yoiks! But it pays off in the routine and they do it flawlessly. I'd have liked a little more salsa in there, I only saw about 8 measures of actual salsa, but the routine is so hot that it doesn't matter. I especially love the sharp, percussive footwork, like the "rat-tat-tat-tat" part. But I still want Rumer to relax more, and have a little more fun and freedom with it, as the judges also mentioned this week. Len sure is in a good mood, awarding her a 9. Score: 33 Riker & Allison's Salsa: This is HOT!! What a great routine - and I'm so glad they kept Riker's hair back. There are still a couple slightly awkward moments in there, like Allison's hop during her opening pirouette. It's as if Riker has a little too much energy and he's overpowering Allison just a tad, pulling her off her balance. But he's also really great, with sharp, clean movements, great energy, and clearly having a ball. Wowza. I love those hip-hop moments too. Carrie Ann's comments about him being more "testosteroney" (the San Francisco treat?) are interesting, as are Julianne's comments about them relating to each other as a couple. My thinking behind this is that Allison, the "So You Think You Can Dance" alum, is such a star that she just stands out and takes the stage no matter what. I talked about this a lot last season, saying she had a "Cassie" problem. I think she's better about blending this season though, and Riker is more able to keep up with her than Jonathan Bennett was. Oh well, so much for Len's good mood; his comments do not reveal his low score. Score: 34 (tied for first place) Robert & Kym's Rumba: This is a very nice Rumba, and Robert looks really lovely doing it, if a little stiff. His shoulders are relaxed, which is great (that's very important, and an easy mistake to make), but he needs to watch his hands. He clearly works so hard though; I love how he's internalizing the judges' comments as they're giving them to him. I also love Julianne's comment that he was in fact leading Kym, because leading is often secondary when working with choreography (since both partners know what they're supposed to do). I admit Kym's flowy dress (which, btw, is not a dress but a leotard with scarves) makes me nervous: I keep waiting for her to step on it, and I think she does at one point. I think she grabs his butt too, at the end. But I can't completely blame her; it's kind of a nice butt. Score: 29 Willow & Mark's Paso Doble: As that tweet on the screen read, "Willow is the girl on fire tonight!" What a smokin' hot, (Catching) Fire and Ice routine. And a lengthy, complicated routine at that, with great choreography-well, except for that WTF moment in the middle with Mark doing some strange footwork. He looks like he's spoofing Lord of the Dance. I sure hope he's not going for zapateado or something, because it does not work. But Willow looks great. She's got such power and strength, and growing every week. It's beautiful. Score: 32 Noah & Sharna's Argentine Tango: Wow. This is just amazing. It's really so incredible to see Noah dance, and an Argentine tango no less. And this routine is as dramatic and sexy as any other. Noah is obviously so strong, with such control. Sharna is truly amazing too, and I admire her so much. What a challenge for her as a choreographer, especially when it's literally one-sided, because Noah lost the same arm and leg. And then, having to re-choreograph with just a couple days to go because they decided not to use the prosthetic arm. What a stupendous routine, beautifully danced. Score: 30 The Rest: Charlotte & Keo's Rumba: This rumba isn't bad; it's got some nice moments. Charlotte is surprisingly flexible, despite bending her knee slightly on that impressive arabesque developpé. She does make gorgeous lines and pictures, as the judges said, but she's still a little stiff and mechanical. She needs to smooth out the transitions between each movement (what Bruno says about sustaining the concentration), and show a little emotion. Bruno's comment about her body over her brains is pretty appalling, but the audience calls him on it immediately, and it's clear he has no idea what he's saying. Might want to think a little more before talking, Bruno. Score: 22 (tied for last place) Michael & Peta's Salsa: That's a shame. Michael's a good mover with great energy, but this salsa definitely looks uncomfortable. Maybe they were too relaxed at their spa day and didn't quite practice enough. It's a shame, but I agree with Carrie Ann that the lifts don't feel safe. But Michael looks awkward and stiff just doing footwork too. It's very difficult not to watch Peta. Michael's face during the judges' comments is truly heartbreaking though. Poor guy. Score: 24 Suzanne & Tony's Samba: Suzanne's channeling Carmen Miranda in her fun, fruity samba to Barry Manilow's classic, "Copacabana." This is a fun routine, and she dances it well, though she does lose her footwork at one point. I think she looks slightly better in the package though, because she's still a little careful. I wonder if she's nervous. I agree with Carrie Ann about showing more depth in the routines. Tony tends to do these light, fluffy (like Suzanne's tail feathers) routines with props and such, but Suzanne is an actress, so she can handle more gravitas. The judges' relatively low scores don't really match their more positive comments though. Score: 25 Chris & Witney's Argentine Tango: As I said last week, I've yet to meet an Argentine Tango I didn't like, and this one is no exception. But Chris looks very uncomfortable at the beginning-Bruno's comments about his turn are exactly spot on-and the routine really gets going when the music picks up, but at that point it's all Witney's legs anyway. I love her fast flicks and ganchos; it's what makes Argentine Tango so sexy. I'm not sure how much Chris brings to it, though of course being a good support for your partner is extremely important. Score: 28 Patti & Artem's Cha-Cha: Yes, this is an entertaining routine, but they're starting to get a little the same. Artem definitely uses more "baffle them with your bulls---" than he should. At first I thought he hides quite a bit of content in the routine, but I didn't think about it until the judges point it out: it's not much cha-cha content. It's more Patti doing her own thing or club dancing than ballroom. She's definitely a fun performer, and I like the hambone in there, but as the judges said, it's not enough. Score: 22 (tied for last place) Nastia & Derek's Samba: Nastia is still so gorgeous, and of course she dances beautifully, even when injured (that thumb injury looks really awful too). Perhaps it's good that they have a handicap because of their schedules. I love the little assisted jump-step, which reminds me of Derek's incredible quickstep with Shawn Johnson a couple years back. Of course the judges glow, awarding them two 9s. Score: 34 (tied for first place) With time quickly running out on the clock, they jump to the bottom three couples: Chris & Witney, Charlotte & Keo, and surprisingly, Noah & Sharna. But Noah and Sharna are safe, of course, and instead Charlotte and Keo are going home. It's a small shame she won't be able to reach her true potential, but someone has to go. At least she'll have more time to deal with the many offers that are apparently coming to her cellphone. So what do you think, dance fans? Are you surprised by the outcome? Which are your favorite dances this week? This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |

'Masterminds' Trailer: Zach Galifianakis Pulls Off the Heist of the Century Posted: Sometimes, less (brains) is more (money). At least, that's the case in the new trailer for the upcoming comedy "Masterminds." Zach Galifianakis stars as a rather dim-witted armored truck driver who gets in league with a rather dim-witted criminal (Owen Wilson) to rob $17 million from a bank. The story is based on true events that took place in North Carolina, and the movie is directed by Jared Hess, so the movie seems to have some of that quirky "Napoleon Dynamite" feel to it. "Masterminds" is definitely stuffed with comedy talent, with Kristen Wiig as Galifianakis's love interest and Jason Sudeikis as a rather dim-witted hitman. The movie opens in theaters August 7.

Posted: If you're like us and value your sleep, you probably nodded off into your Ambien dreamland before the party started on post-prime time TV. Don't worry; we've got you covered. Here's the best of what happened last night on late night. Claire Danes, David Beckham, and Bob Odendirk were all on "The Late Late Show with James Corden" Monday night. Claire talked about how she can be a bossy dancer when she's drunk. David talked about how his son Brooklyn has a job at a small French coffee shop in London; he also shared the story of Brooklyn's first date on Valentine's Day when the kid was 14, and Victoria made David stay in the restaurant and watch them. Bob talked about "Better Call Saul" and how he can now make a perfect Cinnabon. (Prove it - send one this way!) The trio also played Celebrity Cell Phone Profile - before the show, one of the guests surrendered their cell phone and they used it for clues so James could determined who owned the phone. Fun game, if a bit too long. Still, Corden and Beckham have a cute bromance going. Vin Diesel was on "Jimmy Kimmel Live," talking about Van Halen (they were also on JKL), the first concert he ever went to, dancing for the Beastie Boys, visiting China, meeting Mark Zuckerberg, and "Furious 7." They showed a clip from "Furious 7" with Vin and the now late Paul Walker. Helen Mirren was on "The Tonight Show," sucking helium and sharing an embarrassing story. Helen is now in a Broadway play and she commutes on the subway. She talked about manspreading (haha) and one of the worst things she's ever done. She's so ashamed. She was with some friends and they were running to catch the train to get to the theater. She stopped the door and her hand was stuck in the door. A nice guy pried open the door for them. Then the subway police arrived and asked who stopped the train. Helen didn't speak up, but the guy who kept the door open did speak up and he had to leave the train. She's so sorry and wishes she could find him. Helen also chatted with Jimmy while sucking helium - he had her accept a faux award in that voice. She should apologize to subway guy in her helium voice, that would make him smile. But seriously, hearing her say "spotted dick" in that voice might give you the giggles. Neil Patrick Harris was on "Late Show with David Letterman" for the 17th time, and he said he knows this might be his last time on the show. The first time he was on Dave's show was 25 years ago. He even repeated his electric mic magic move. NPH also talked about his new live variety show, which needs a name. "Daredevil" star Charlie Cox was also on Dave's show and he had some food poisoning issues, so he tried not to get sick. Nathan Lane was on "Late Night with Seth Meyers," talking about Taylor Swift and his heartbreak about Zayn leaving One Direction. "Seth, you think you know a boy band, you give them your heart and something like this shakes you to the core. And then the next thing you know, they're cutting solo albums and joining Isis, turning into Joey Fatone. It's one of life's cruelest lessons." Kristen Schaal of "The Last Man on Earth" was on Seth's show and talked about a gassy love scene with Will Forte. Speaking of Will Forte, he was on "Conan" and also talked about the show, his character, his ... manhood, and when he shaved a love arrow.
