Sylvester Stallone To Star In Mob Film Scarpa

Brad Furman has come aboard to direct Sylvester Stallone in Scarpa for Avi Lerner’s Millennium Films, a high-profile project currently being pulled together and one they hope to put before the cameras next year, possibly in the first quarter. The project will be produced by Irwin Winkler (Rocky). Stallone will star as Gregory Scarpa, a former capo and enforcer (hitman) for the Colombo crime family known as the Grim Reaper. The script is by crime aficionado Nicholas Pileggi, whose screenplay for Goodfellas was nominated for an Oscar and whose Casino was also critically acclaimed. (And, btw, he should have been nominated again for Casino which he adapted from his own book). Both were directed by Martin Scorsese. Stallone would play one of the best-known sociopaths in organized crime — a man who murdered for the family, suspected in the murders of his own biological family, then turned FBI informant (like many of the wise guys end up doing). He was eventually indicted for multiple

Homefront Red-Band Trailer Starring Statham & Franco

Here is the red-Band trailer for Homefront . Be warned that Jason Statham and James Franco go about their mutually vengeful business in a way that's probably not safe for work (without headphones). Much more than last time in the way of people being shot to bits and resoundingly beaten there, plus some particularly ripe dialogue and one of those flashbacks where The Stath has hair. Always enjoy those. It's looking to be another retro-throwback '80s style R-rated actioner, of which there have been a few this year. This one has the benefit of having been written by Mr Sly Stallone himself. If you watch carefully you'll even see a bullet to the head. Statham is the guy-with-a-troubled-past-now-trying-to-live-a-quiet-life Phil Broker, while Franco is meth kingpin Gator, who turns vans upside down like they in a crazy washing machine (or something). Winona Ryder, Kate Bosworth, Rachelle Lefevre and Clancy Brown are also all in there somewhere, and Stallone's scr

OLYMPUS HAS FALLEN DVD Review

OLYMPUS HAS FALLEN DVD Review By: MattInRC The Die Hard/Air Force One action thriller OLYMPUS HAS FALLEN is fun, exciting fare. I've always considered Gerard Butler to be one of the least utilized actors in Hollywood. Best known as Leonidas in the amazing visual feast known as 300 , Butler's phyique and stage presence instantly won over fans who worshipped him as a bonified action star. He was even considered for the role of James Bond before Daniel Craig was ultimately given the keys to the Aston Martin. Then, something happened: Butler began showing up in RomComs and other lesser action titles, of which none suited or matched his talents. When your film diet consists of Playing for Keeps and The Ugly Truth , one might start to think you're the victim of a cruel joke. Luckily, someone saw the action hero in Butler, and OLYMPUS HAS FALLEN represents the perfect return to the place where he should have been all along. Butler plays Mike Banning, a

Win Tickets To An Advance Screening For THE ICEMAN In San Francisco

Win your tickets to see an advance screening for THE ICEMAN ! The screening is on May 13th @ 7 PM San Francisco. In case you haven’t been following the film’s slow-cooked development, no, THE ICEMAN is not the continuing adventures of Val Kilmer’s narky pilot from Top Gun. It is, in fact, the strange-but-true story of mob assassin Richard Kuklinski . Shannon plays Kuklinski, a man who led a strictly separate double life. To his wife Deborah ( Winona Ryder ), he was a loving, attentive family man and business type who was gainfully employed. But his other existence was something quite different: he specialised in untraceable killings and got his nickname thanks to his habit of freezing his victims post mortem to keep them from the prying detection of the police and forensics investigators. Chris Evans is co-starring as Robert Pronge, who helped teach Kuklinski the ways of the assassin, with Ray Liotta as a mob boss. Ariel Vroman is the director and co-writer who drag

Official Poster For The Paperboy Starring An All-Star Cast

Lee Daniels’ dramatic follow-up to his Oscar-nominated Precious tells the story of a reporter who returns to his Florida hometown to investigate a case involving a death row inmate. The film has a great solid cast of Matthew McConaughey, Nicole Kidman, John Cusack, Zac Efron and David Oyelowo . From Millennium Films comes the sexy cool first poster for The Paperboy : Nicole Kidman rides shotgun next to Zac Efron , who takes center stage with old-fashioned matinee-idol looks, a far cry from the kid-friendly charm of his previous work. Speaking frankly, the whole poster gives off in a truth Tarantino fashion that pays tribute to B-movies. The story follows a Miami Times reporter ( Matthew McConaughey ) who returns to his hometown to investigate the murder of a local sheriff. Efron , as his aimless younger brother, kicks in to help, and in the process falls for the woman ( Kidman ) whom the convict ( John Cusack ) has been romancing through prison correspondence. The movie underw

Screenplay Is Written For Rambo: Last Stand

Eighteen months ago, in the run up to The Expendables , Sylvester Stallone   said that John Rambo's adventures were over. " It's pretty well done; I'm about 99% sure there won't be any more ," he said. "I'm very happy with the last Burmese episode, and another film might be misinterpreted as an unnecessary and mercenary gesture. I don't want that to happen." And yet, and yet... Conan the Barbarian writer Sean Hood has just submitted his screenplay for Rambo: Last Stand to Millennium. FEARnet slipped a casual mention into an interview with Hood about Conan (there's also a line about a potential film based on another Robert E Howard character: that'd be Kull , folks!), and the writer was happy to expand on that info a little, after a request from Empire for clarifiication. Firstly, this isn't just preemptive wishful thinking on the part of Millennium: Stallone was involved in getting the ball rolling. "I met with Mr Sta
