James McAvoy: casting rumours and 'Trance' poster

Rumour: James McAvoy contender to play the new Crow
From Bleeding Cool:

Though their rumour comes with an in-built disclaimer, Bloody Disgusting say that James McAvoy is considering the star role in a reboot of The Crow. This makes him the third high-profile name associated with this do-over after Bradley Cooper and Mark Wahlberg.
None of those guys really seems to click into the role for me, though I like all of them just fine in other places, other roles. Perhaps I’m just not seeing it yet. Perhaps I’m just too wed to a Crow I have in my head, from the James O’Barr comics and original Alex Proyas movie.
The logistical catch with this casting is McAvoy’s commitment to filming X-Men: Days of Future Past. This might prevent him from taking up another big project this year, or at least before the winter. If The Crow will have to roll this spring or summer, then there’s not even a small chance of whiteface for McAvoy.

Let James McAvoy hypnotize you with a new poster for Danny Boyle's 'Trance'

Star James McAvoy is central to the eye-straining U.K. one-sheet, which boasts the ominous words "Don't Be A Hero" in plain white text across the middle. So what does it all mean? Guess you'll have to wait and see when the film hits U.S. shores sometime later this year.
"Trance" synopsis:

'Trance,' directed by Oscar®-winning filmmaker Danny Boyle ('Slumdog Millionaire,' '127 Hours') and co-written by Oscar®-nominated long term collaborator John Hodge ('Shallow Grave,' 'Trainspotting') is a seductive and enigmatic thriller starring James McAvoy, Vincent Cassel and Rosario Dawson.

Fine art auctioneer Simon (McAvoy), in league with a gang led by underworld boss Franck (Cassel), plots the audacious theft of a masterpiece by Goya from a major public auction. When Simon double-crosses the gang during the robbery, Franck retaliates violently and knocks him unconscious.

In the aftermath of the heist, Simon sticks stubbornly – and perhaps shrewdly – to his claim that the violent trauma has left him with no memory of where he stashed the artwork.

Unable to coerce the painting’s location from Simon, Franck and his associates reluctantly join forces with a charismatic hypnotherapist (Dawson) in a bid to get him to talk. But as they journey deeper into Simon’s jumbled psyche the boundaries between reality and hypnotic suggestion begin to blur and the stakes rise faster and far more dangerously than any of the players could have anticipated.

New poster for UK horror film In Fear, starring The Fades’ Iain de Caestecker

 

British horror In Fear, which stars SHIELD agent Iain de Caestecker, has released a very striking new poster ahead of its première at the Sundance Film Festival (via Bloody Disgusting).

Ewen Bremner: 'Snowpiercer' poster and interview

First poster for SNOWPIERCER officially released

 

We originally saw part of the Snowpiercer poster months ago but it was in low-resolution and was missing a tag line. Also, listen to two actors, John Hurt ("Contact") and Ewen Bremner ("Trainspotting"), as they discuss the film.


"In Snowpiercer I play kind of a... because there is kind of a microcosm of humanity all on a train, which is going all around the globe. You know, in a small ice age. Um it all sounds a bit preposterous, but the fact is that it's based on a graphic novel, which is a French graphic novel from round about the 80's. So, it is... kind of not real in that sense. It creates it's own reality, you'll see what I mean. And I'm playing an erstwhile leader, of revolutions, that is held in great regard by the young man who is leading the revolution at the moment. Because all the rift raft is at the back of the train and all the good ones live in the front of the train. So the revolution seizes through the train. And he (Joon-ho Bong) is a remarkable director. So, that is what I do there, but it turns out he is not as admirable as he might have been considered." - John Hurt



Snow Piercer is set in a future where, after a failed experiment to stop global warming, an Ice Age kills off all life on the planet except for the inhabitants of the Snow Piercer, a train that travels around the globe and is powered by a sacred perpetual-motion engine. A class system evolves on the train but a revolution brews.
Snow Piercer is directed by Joon-ho Bong. The cast includes Chris Evans, Ed Harris, Octavia Spencer, Jamie Bell, Tilda Swinton, Alison Pill and Song-Kang-ho. The film will hit theaters Summer 2013.

Alan Cumming

'Any Day Now' theatrical poster unveiled
The Dec. 14 release, a dramedy based on a true story, is set in 1979 Los Angeles and revolves around a gay couple who wish to adopt a child with special needs.
The Hollywood Reporter is pleased to exclusively début the first theatrical poster for Travis Fine's Any Day Now, which Music Box Films -- the small distributor best known for handling the American release of the Swedish Girl with the Dragon Tattoo films -- will put into limited release on Dec. 14 and then push for Golden Globe nominations in the musical/comedy categories.

The film, a dramedy based on a true story, is set in 1979 Los Angeles. It revolves around a gay couple -- one member of which is flamboyant and comfortable in his skin (Tony winner and two-time Emmy nominee Alan Cumming of The Good Wife) and the other whom is still semi-closeted and not (Garret Dillahunt of Raising Hope) -- who wish to adopt a boy with Down Syndrome (newcomer Isaac Leyva) who has been abandoned by his drug-addicted mother.
The film premièred back in April at the Tribeca Film Festival, where it won the audience award. It subsequently picked up other audience awards at the Provincetown, Woodstock, and LA Outfest fests. Cumming's performance has attracted especially strong notices.

Alan Cumming film wins CIFF award
The film Any Day Now, starring Alan Cumming and Garret Dillahunt, was one of the winners of the Chicago International Film Festival's Audience Choice Award for Best Narrative Feature. Any Day Now's plot revolves around an abandoned mentally handicapped teenager who a gay couple—a drag performer (Cumming) and a closeted attorney (Dillahunt)—take in. However, once the unconventional living arrangement is discovered by authorities, the men must fight a biased legal system to adopt the child.
The other winner in the narrative department was Quartet, directed by Dustin Hoffman [starring Billy Connolly].
The Central Park Five was the documentary winner. The film looks at the five Black and Latino teenagers who were arrested in 1989 and later convicted of raping a white woman in New York City's Central Park. Each spent between six and 13 years in prison before the actual criminal's confession led to their exonerations.
The festival ran Oct. 11-25.

Scottish quote of the week: Billy Boyd on Hobbits and Scots 

Scottish actor Billy Boyd was born in 1968 in Glasgow and is best known for playing hobbit Peregrin “Pippin” Tookin in the film adaptations of J.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of The Rings series. 

Boyd worked as a bookbinder for several years before embarking on his acting career, and one of the books he bound was The Lord of the Rings.

The films were shot in director Peter Jackson’s native New Zealand, a country whose landscape is often compared to that of Scotland, and many of whose people are descended from Scots, lending an extra dimension to Boyd’s comparison of Scottish people and hobbits:

“Hobbits are a lot like Scots. It’s all about nature and enjoying their land, which is a very Scottish thing” – Billy Boyd

Robert Carlyle: 'California Solo' poster, and Kids Glasgow auction

Exclusive: poster for 'California Solo' starring Robert Carlyle 
For more than two decades, Robert Carlyle has been a familiar face in projects on both sides of the ocean, becoming one of the most reliable players on TV and in the movies. Of course, he's likely best known for playing the deliciously deranged Begbie in Trainspotting, but roles in 28 Weeks Later, The Full Monty, Angela's Ashes and more have solidified him as a true talent. And while it's not often that we seem him in a lead role, when the opportunity arises it's likely one worth checking out, and you'll get a chance soon with California Solo. 

Premièring at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year, the film from writer/director Marshall Lewy (Blue State) finds Carlyle playing a former Britpop rocker living in the United States, who finds himself facing deportation. 

Here's the full synopsis for the picture: "LACHLAN MacALDONICH (Robert Carlyle) is former Britpop rocker who has settled into a comfortably numb existence in farm country just outside Los Angeles. By day, he works on an organic farm and travels regularly to the city’s farmers’ markets to sell produce. By night, he retreats to his crummy apartment to record "Flame-Outs," his podcast that recounts the tragic deaths of great musicians. The only spark in his humdrum existence is BEAU (Alexia Rasmussen), a lovely struggling actress and amateur chef who frequents the Silver Lake farmers’ market. One night, Lachlan gets pulled over for a DUI, a charge that dredges up his past drug offense and threatens him with deportation. Lachlan’s only hope of staying in the U.S. is proving that his removal would cause “extreme hardship” to a U.S. citizen spouse or relative. Lachlan contacts his estranged ex-wife and daughter, raising past demons that he must finally confront. CALIFORNIA SOLO is a touching, human story about post-fame life and personal redemption."

California Solo will hit New York and Los Angeles on November 30th courtesy of Strand Releasing, with more cities and dates to follow.

Once Upon a Time fans bid to help with Kids Glasgow 

Calling all Once Upon a Time fans! You have a unique opportunity this week to acquire some one-of-a-kind Once memorabilia and help out a cause supported by Once Upon a Time star Robert Carlyle. The British Once Upon a Time fansite, Once Upon a Fan has teamed with With Kids Glasgow to auction some fantastic items this week, including fan art, rare DVDs, a signed script and more.

In fact, Mr. Carlyle has donated a very special Once keepsake to the auction—Rumplestiltskin’s treasured chipped cup, used in last season’s “Skin Deep.” The cup is autographed by both Carlyle and Emilie de Ravin, who, of course, plays Belle in the series. 

Carlyle tweeted about it yesterday, including a photograph of him holding the Rumple’s treasured memento of Belle.

Begun last year as a single page blog, the Once Upon a Fan site has grown into a huge world-wide fan community. In addition to the main fan site, the group has a Facebook page with 11,000 "Likes," as well as 11,500 followers on Twitter. Site creator Gareth Hughes proudly noted to me that, “we recently celebrated a million site visits! It’s all non-profit and the writers work extremely hard and give up their own free time so I am very grateful to them for all their input. Big shout out to them.”

I recently “spoke” with Gareth, as well as Suzy Blair, community development coordinator of With Kids Glasgow via email to talk about the auction and the U.K. based charity. Gareth told me that he’d initially learned of the organization from Oncers who had sent him links to video interviews Carlyle had done as a With Kids ambassador. Here's Part 1 of that video interview:

“I was quite inspired by his passion for the project,” Gareth told me, “and could relate to his tales about growing up in Glasgow. I was born in quite a poor area of Merseyside. I know my parents struggled to make sure we had the best of everything so I could really relate to the difficulties that disadvantaged families go through and the idea that everybody deserves a chance, or a happy ending.”
With the fan site growing in popularity, Gareth believed it was an ideal time to “really do some good. The fans have just been amazing in the way they have sent in items for the auction or donated to the appeal. It really reinforces your faith in humanity to see what people have done.”

Forget Snow White and her seven dwarfs - Peter Jackson has 13 for us, all crammed into a new poster for The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, the first instalment in his Tolkien movie trilogy.
There are no Sleepys, Dopeys or Docs here either.

Ewan McGregor: 'The Impossible' updates

The Impossible starring Ewan McGregor & Naomi Watts will hit theaters on December 21^st

With production on the film beginning way, way back in 2010, we've been starting to get a little worried about "The Orphanage" director Juan Antonio Bayona's The Impossible. But with a lengthy post-production required for the special effects work, we got our first taste of the film in December with a promising teaser followed up this spring with a full trailer -- could the movie now be Oscar bound?

It seems Lionsgate is throwing their hat in the ring, dating The Impossible for a New York and Los Angeles release in the thick of awards season on December 21st, an already crowded slot that has "This Is 40," "Zero Dark Thirty" and "Jack Reacher" all opening that weekend. But what those flims won't have is Ewan McGregor and Naomi Watts starring in what looks like an extraordinarily visceral drama set against the devastating tsunami of 2004. We're guessing it'll be like that opening sequence of Clint Eastwood's "Hereafter"... but like, for a whole movie (and better). Here's the official synopsis:

Maria (Naomi Watts), Henry (Ewan McGregor) and their three sons begin their winter vacation in Thailand, looking forward to a few days in tropical paradise. But on the morning of December 26th, as the family relaxes around the pool after their Christmas festivities the night before, a terrifying roar rises up from the center of the earth. As Maria freezes in fear, a huge wall of black water races across the hotel grounds toward her.

Based on a true story, The Impossible is the unforgettable account of a family caught, with tens of thousands of strangers, in the mayhem of one of the worst natural catastrophes of our time. But the true-life terror is tempered by the unexpected displays of compassion, courage and simple kindness that Maria and her family encounter during the darkest hours of their lives. Both epic and intimate, devastating and uplifting, The Impossible is a journey to the core of the human heart.

This hopefully means (fingers crossed) a fall festival circuit première will be in order to help get the buzz out not only in advance of its stateside bow, but also the Spanish release on October 11th.

New Poster for Tsunami drama The Impossible with Ewan McGregor & Naomi Watts

From the crew of The Orphanage, including director Juan Antonio Bayona who will be making his English-language début and scribe Sergio G. Sánchez, the film follows the true account of a family – Henry (Ewan McGregor), Maria (Naomi Watts), and their three sons – who begin their winter vacation in Thailand but who find themselves caught with tens of thousands of strangers in the mayhem of one of the worst natural catastrophes of our time.

Set to be released in the UK on 4th January, 2013, the new poster is quite intense, already highlighting the horrific effects that tsunami caused and the dramatic situations that the cast are set to face.
