Josh Hartnett sat down with Details to promote his upcoming film PENNY DREADFUL, and he was asked a few questions why he turned down Superman, Batman and Spider-Man roles. I am sure he is kicking himself in the ass right about now. Read the interview after the Jump... DETAILS : You're 35 now, but in your twenties, you got offered pretty much everything. You turned down Superman Returns, and you were in talks to play almost every other superhero. Josh Hartnett: Spider-Man was something we talked about. Batman was another one. But I somehow knew those roles had potential to define me, and I didn't want that. I didn't want to be labeled as Superman for the rest of my career. I was maybe 22, but I saw the danger. DETAILS: Your agents must have been slitting their wrists. Josh Hartnett: I didn't have those agents for much longer after that. There was a lot of infighting between my manager and agents, trying to figure out who to put the blame on. It got

Manny Hernandez , despite appearing in a string of films and TV shows include Joey and the Paris Hilton 'comedy' Bottom's Up , isn't a known commodity yet. Give it time. We speak to the star of the upcoming Pure Love about his journey to the top. Where do you think the readers might recognize you from? In all honesty I don’t think anyone recognizes me yet, ha! Hopefully in the next couple of years that’ll change but at least people always tell me I look like someone. You've done a variety of work in TV and Film. Do you prefer one medium over the other? Both have their fulfilling aspects for me. Television is on a tighter schedule so you have less time to experiment or create a deeper character. You’re able to see your work in a quicker turnaround and it makes it feel like you have something to show for your time. Myself, I enjoy film over television because it’s more of a collaborative process. Unless you’re a regular on a television series then you

Armie Hammer may not have seen the career boost he might have expected when The Lone Ranger failed to connect with audiences, but he’s still booking films. Variety reports that he’ll star in a psychological thriller called Mine . No, the film won’t see him playing a live-action version of the seagulls from Finding Nemo . He’s actually set to play a soldier who finds himself stranded in the desert after a failed assassination mission. Exposed to the rigours of the harsh environment, he’ll have to battle life-threatening dangers and psychological trauma as he tries to survive. We're guessing there might be landmines involved as well, but possibly we're overthinking the title there. Fabio Guaglione and Fabio Resinaro are set to co-write and direct the film, aiming to star work in the autumn, with The Conjuring 's producer Peter Safran overseeing the shoot. We’re just hoping Hammer doesn’t have flashbacks to his Ranger days in the desert. Next up for the actor is Gu

Tim Blake Nelson is in final negotiations to join the cast of 20th Century Fox’s reboot of The Fantastic Four . Josh Trank is directing the movie, which once again focuses on the Marvel Comics quartet of scientist-adventurers Reed Richards ( Miles Teller ), aka Mr. Fantastic; his best friend Ben Grimm ( Jamie Bell ), aka The Thing; his girlfriend Sue Storm ( Kate Mara ), aka The Invisible Woman; and her brother, Johnny ( Michael B. Jordan ), aka The Human Torch. Toby Kebbell is playing the villain, Doctor Doom. Nelson will play Harvey Elder, an eccentric and socially awkward scientist. In comics lore, Elder is actually the Mole Man , shunned by humanity and leader of a subterranean group of monsters known as the Moloids. Sources say the Mole Man will not appear in this movie but Elder’s appearance does set up the character to be the villain in future installments of the franchise. Fox did not comment on the plans. Simon Kinberg wrote the script and is producing with Hu

The Other Woman Review By: John Meneghetti TV audiences have forgiven characters like Don Draper and Tony Soprano for their marital infidelities over the last several years – possibly awaiting their comeuppance but ultimately drinking in their charm. New relationship comedy The Other Woman doesn’t stand for such caddishness! After finding that they’ve all been sharing the same man, Carly ( Cameron Diaz ), Kate ( Leslie Mann ), and Amber ( Kate Upton ) embark on a mission to make the cheating scoundrel, Mark ( Nikolaj Coster-Waldau ), regret his philandering. This movie uses humor to paint the heartbreak that unfaithfulness can cause. But instead of portraying female characters who resort to clawing each other’s eyes and weaves out in competition, the three wronged women channel their anger into a wacky revenge scheme that terrorizes Mark in Connecticut, New York, and the Bahamas. The dialogue especially pops when Diaz and Mann lock into quick laugh-inducing exchanges. A

Exclusive Interview With Michael De Chant & Doug Gritzmacher We got to talk to Michael De Chant & Doug Gritzmacher  about their new documentary " Soldiers of Paint " Veteran Production Assistant Michael De Chant and in-demand cameraman Doug Gritzmacher team for the acclaimed new documentary, Soldiers of Paint . Released to coincide the upcoming anniversary of D-Day, the Netflix release tells of one of the most thrilling paintball battles ever staged.
