Eternal funny man and rubber-faced buffoon Jim Carrey is celebrating the birth of his first grandson. His daughter Jane, 22, gave birth to a 7lbs 11oz (crimety) baby boy on Friday in Los Angeles. She and husband Alex Santana have named him Jackson Riley Santana. Aw.
Well, for better or for worse, it looks like Zoolander 2 is definitely on the cards. The hilarious tale of rival models (played brilliantly by Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson) first burst onto our screens in 2001, so ten years later, can the team re-ignite the magic of Blue Steel?
On Stranger tides indeed. It’s been revealed today that though a lot of Pirates 4 will be filmed in Hawaii, a sister location will be used for some scenes. And that glamourous location is? Cornwall. Brilliant.
You know Ireland? That place where everyone dresses in green, the only drink available is Guiness, everyone is very sure (to be sure, to be sure), and where if you look a flame-headed man in the eye, you’re libel fer a beatin? No, us neither. As that place exists only in the minds of cigar-toting, fleshy eyed Hollywood executives. And now, also in Leap Year. Hoi ti toy ti toy.
A cosy Midwestern town where the smiles are shiny and the cakes are plentiful is the tranquil setting for a sudden bloodthirsty apocalypse in The Crazies. Executive produced by George A Romero, who redefined the horror genre with Night Of The Living Dead, Breck Eisner’s suspenseful yarn pays homage to the 1968 zombie classic with a big fat shout out to the dangers of experimental bio-weapons. Still, who needs subtelty when you’re being chased by a man with a chain-saw?
What have the critics made of Alice In Wonderland so far? Is it actually worth your last quid? (ha, yeah, add like seventeen). We’ve helpfully scoured the net for the critics opinions since its Leicester Square opening last week, figuring that until we see it, we might as well let you know what the others are saying. It’s getting quite mixed responses so there’s no denying that the situation is getting (all together now) curiouser and curiouser…
Yep, it seems that next up in the age of ‘Hollywood are running out of ideas’ is a re-boot of Alexandre Dumas’ novel The Three Musketeers. And not only that – it seems like there’s going to be two of them.
Micmacs, or to give it its full French title, Micmacs à tire-larigot, is the sixth feature from French auteur Jean-Pierre Jeunet. A comic tale of revenge and the joy of personal expression, it’s a film that sits admirably alongside Jeunet’s previous iconoclastic offerings Amélie and Delicatessen. Fans of Jeunet will enjoy immersing themselves in the director’s trademark visual style and quirkiness while newcomers will come away hungry to check out more of his work.
Those of you who were looking to Angelina Jolie retuning to the Wanted franchise, we’re afraid we have some bad news. The actress has dropped the sequel, deciding instead to sign up for Alfonso Curón’s new project Gravity.
