This Christmas, prepare to get lit up like a joi—Christmas tree. Gracing the top of every stoner’s wish list this year will be A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas, the third film starring John Cho and Kal Penn as the titular buddies whose misadventures know no limits.
The alien invasion genre is still alive and well with our featured trailer this week for The Darkest Hour. That’s more than you can say for Earth’s inhabitants in this foreign-set adventure starring Emile Hirsch and Olivia Thirlby.
Though he first earned acclaim from the television series Moonlighting, Bruce Willis has become an action star thanks to films like Armageddon and the “Die Hard” franchise. He just starred in the action-comedies Cop Out and Red, but he’s looking to return to straightforward action with an already popular franchise.
Willis is currently negotiating to star in Jon M. Chu’s G.I. Joe 2: Retaliation, sequel to the 2009 blockbuster G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
If the negotiations go as planned, he’ll step into the role of
“original Joe” General Joe Colton, the character who set up “the G.I.
Joe strike team” in the comic books.
It’s no surprise, but now it’s confirmed: Bloody Disgusting has
it that a fifth “Resident Evil” film is coming, with main star Mila
Jovovich and “Afterlife” director Paul W.S. Anderson set to return to
their respective roles. The film will be titled Resident Evil: Retribution.
Despite being critically-lashed (even by myself),
“Afterlife” proved to be a financial success, making near $300 million
at the worldwide level on a budget of $60 million. Naturally, this sum
can be credited due to inflated 3D ticket prices, but it was enough for
Screen Gems to invest in a fifth film that will be based on W.S.
Anderson’s own screenplay. Anderson also directed the first film in the
series and has acted as an executive producer for all films since then.
“Retribution” will mark his third time in the director’s chair for a
“Resident Evil” film.
On the heels of Final Destination 5, Player Affinity has undertaken the glorious task of identifying the most memorable death of each entry.
Robert Rodriguez sent San Diego buzzing when he told fans at Comic-Con that if a sequel to the hit noir action film Sin City happens at all, “it’s going to happen this year.” Now the producer/director reveals that the film has the money and could theoretically begin filming as soon as the script is in place.
