'Dawn of the Planet of the Apes,' and the new approach to the 'PotA' films is decidedly different than the tact taken in the 1970's. There, each sequel was given a smaller and smaller budget and with fewer name talents. Not so with 'Dawn,' as it just added Gary Oldman to the cast.
'Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy' did wonders for Gary Oldman back in 2011. Although 'The Dark Knight Rises' gave him ample footing to take on the upcoming 'RoboCop' remake, the Tomas Alfredson-directed spy flick gave him his first ever Oscar nomination for Best Actor. Plus, it raked in some big box office numbers for the year. So talk of a sequel is only natural, but do we really need one?
While updates on a 'Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy' sequel has been quiet for the most part, producer Eric Fellner has confirmed work is progressing "as we speak" on the next installment. But where might the story go?
There's a long-ish line of directors who look exactly like the on-screen stars -- the one that immediately comes to mind is Damon Lindelof and Joey Lawrence from 'Blossom.' Now, we've stumbled on another pair after the news broke that 'Dawn of the Planet of the Apes' found its director... for the second time.
Shia LaBeouf is trying hard to be a badass -- first with his music video where he shook his bojangles at us, and secondly with scoring the role in the upcoming action flick 'Lawless.' We did get a glimpse of him in the official movie trailer along with 'Dark Knight' alumni Gary Oldman and Tom Hardy, but The Weinstein Company recently released seven brand new character posters that gave us an even closer look at how the 'Transformers' star plans on embodying his new role.
Yesterday marked the beginning of the end of 'The Dark Knight Rises,' as all the stars and crew behind the final Christopher Nolan-directed Batman trilogy came out to New York City yesterday for the premiere. And what better location to host the 'Dark Knight Rises' premiere than the so named real-life city of Gotham.
If you weren't watching 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' last night (or if you're like us and you just asked, "That's still on?"), you missed a very special treat. Oscar-nominated actor Gary Oldman popped by to give a dramatic reading from rapper R. Kelly's memoir, 'Soulacoaster: The Diary of Me.'
Hollywood's latest remake that isn't necessary and makes us want to vomit cyborg feeding baby food is Paul Verhoven's 'Robocop,' the 1987 thriller which so perfectly used violence and dark humor that it's one of the greatest action films of all time. At least a worthy actor will be joining the remake being helmed by Jose Padilha.
For those who liked the idea of Michael Mann's 'Public Enemies,' but not the execution, have we got a movie for you. John Hillcoat's 'Lawless' brings together an all star cast with Shia LaBeouf, Tom Hardy, Gary Oldman, Guy Pearce, Jessica Chastain and Mia Wasikowska for a story about brother bootleggers up against the law and organized crime. Check out the trailer...
Rocker Jack White has a new solo album, ‘Blunderbuss,’ reaching shelves on April 24, and in an effort to promote it, he’ll host an online concert that can be streamed to fans. That’s not so unusual. Here’s what is: The concert will be directed by 'The Dark Knight Rises' star Gary Oldman.
You would think being the third lead in a hit film wouldn't mean all that much, all things. Much of what Liam Hemsworth does in 'The Hunger Games' is stare at Jennifer Lawrence's Katniss Everdeen, but it seems that appearing in a film that's already grossed $300 Million domestic (after three weeks) makes you something of a star. So now Hemsworth is going to be the lead in 'Paranoia.'
