In development since 2011 and with Joe Carnahan attached to direct since this time last year, Five Against A Bullet has finally got the go-ahead. Carnahan's name was recently connected with Bad Boys 3 , but it looks like this will happen first. Five Against A Bullet has been lingering in limbo for a while, ever since Transformers producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura brought it to studio Sony four years ago. Originally boasting a script by Alex Litvak (Predators), it’s the story of a Mexican politician whose father is slaughtered by a drug cartel. In order to stay alive during a campaign to clean up his local area, the canny politico hires the five best bodyguards available. The film attracted Bruce Willis ’ attention in 2012, but things went quiet after that. Carnahan – no stranger to films boasting a high bullet count thanks to Narc, Smokin’ Aces and The A-Team – signed up to re-write and direct the film in 2014, and its latest momentum comes from former Geffen Records president

Confirming unofficial reports from eagle-eyed set snoopers earlier in the week, Transformers producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura has told Beijing News that the Dinobots will indeed be making an appearance in Michael Bay's Transformers 4. Yes, really. "I can not disclose the specifics, but you can be sure that the arrival of the Dinobots will give the audience a lot to be excited about.

Does the world really need another Transformers film, looks like director Micheal Bay thinks so. Given the performance of the franchise so far, it was inevitable that we were going to get more Transformers films. What was more up in the air was the possibility that Michael Bay would be the man to direct them. Well, now you need wonder no more (and start despairing if you hated the other movies): he’ll be back. Chatting with MTV , loose-lipped producer Lorenzo Di Bonaventura let slip word that Paramount has locked in Bay to direct at least one more film, which will arrive in the summer of 2014. We say loose-lipped, because he apparently wasn’t supposed to reveal the details just yet, with Paramount planning a press release for today or later in the week. But the feline has well and truly left the bag, so here we are. And there are more intriguing details as to what we might expect from a new movie. “I think we really are going to do a reboot there,” Di Bonaventura says. “But

Thor actor Ray Stevenson has been cast as villain Firefly in Paramount’s G.I. Joe 2: Cobra Strikes . The action movie, to be directed by Jon M. Chu, begins shooting in Louisiana at the end of summer and is slated for release in August 2012. Stevenson will appear opposite Channing Tatum and Dwayne Johnson in the film, which is being produced by Lorenzo di Bonaventura, and follows G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra, a hit in 2009.

Other than Tatum, Cobra Strikes will feature an entirely new cast; in addition to franchise newcomers Johnson and Stevenson, the film will include Adrianne Palicki, Elodie Yung, RZA and D.J. Cotrona . In this summer’s Thor, which has grossed more than $400 million worldwide, Stevenson played Volstagg, one of the Warriors Three. He will next be seen in Summit’s The Three Musketeers in the role of Porthos. The 3D feature is sla

Get ready for the Space Invaders movie. The classic 1980s arcade game from Taito and Midway, which is ranked as the top arcade game of all time by Guinness World Records, is heading to the big screen courtesy of producers Lorenzo di Bonaventura and Odd Lot Entertainment’s Gigi Pritzker. The two have teamed up to option the rights and develop the project and are now on the hunt for a writer to come up with a story. One of the first video games, Space Invaders is credited with taking the medium from a sideshow attraction to a mainstream obsession. The shooter game was technically released in 1978 but made its pop culture mark by the turn of the decade. It featured rows upon rows of aliens (or their ships) raining laser death upon a lone player who took cover behind slowly disintegrating blocks. There have been other rumored attempts to develop a film but none has gone anywhere. With Space Invaders, the producers are facing an interesting challenge: The video game doesn’t have a

Producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura has come forward to explain his intentions behind the Jon M. Chu directed sequel G.I. Joe 2: Cobra Strikes . Dwayne Johnson , also known to some as " The Rock ", recently joined this new adventure as Roadblock . As Lorenzo di Bonaventura tells it, this new addition to theatrical franchise will be one of the movie's two lead characters. "It's a full-on lead role. In a way, he and Snake-Eyes, their stories are really dynamic and very important. ( Dwayne Johnson ) is such a great character to have in 'G.I. Joe 2.' It's an amazing combination. We would not be very good if we didn't fully utilize him, so he's going to have a lot of things to do. It is an ensemble movie, so you have other characters certainly playing it out." Lorenzo di Bonaventura then went onto explain that this will essentially be a sequel tailored to the ninja fan. "The ninja fans are going to love it. There's a tremendous amo

Transformers: Dark of the Moon Movie Review By: SandwichJohn Where to start with this movie. How about here. I am just one person and this is my opinion. I don't think of myself as a movie critic but just someone who loves movies. Maybe I am just not smart enough to follow this movie, it was a hot mess. An Autobot ship crashed on the Dark side of the moon, Megatron comes out of hiding and wants to restart the War. Are you still with me, something about teleportation and wanting to turn all of us into slaves. Here we go with the negative. Transformers: Dark of the Moon is the summer movie you would expect from Michael Bay, a ton of action and explosions. But we don't actually get that until the second act of the film. We did get to see some new characters in the film (that were underdeveloped) and characters that really had no point being in the film. Yes, they got rid of the two clowns from the second film, but don't fear they have two more Jar Jar Binks in this m
