Having previously appeared in Robert Rodriguez’s Spy Kids franchise as one of the titular scamps, it’s something of a change of pace for Vega, who plays a female assassin named Killjoy. Milk does a body good for sure. I was amazed when I saw this photo of Alexa. How they grow up and having two girls of my own, I am not looking forward to the future. “The first time I walked out in my outfit on set, everyone was like, ‘Wow, you’re not allowed to wear that!’” laughs Vega. “I’ve never done anything like this. I’d never felt comfortable enough, and I never thought this would be the project where I’d take a step forward. “This was all about owning my sexuality,” she continues. “I worked really hard for it in a way that I never had to work hard for something before.” Her character is a kind of guardian angel for prostitutes,...

The final outing for Summit Entertainment's blockbuster Twilight franchise could have the sharpest bite of all. Most box-office observers believe The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn -- Part 2 will score a franchise-best opening at the domestic box office with a $145 million to $150 million debut, beating record holder 2009's New Moon ($142.8 million). Breaking Dawn 2 begins rolling out in North America at 10 p.m. Thursday; by Friday morning, it will be playing in 4,070 theaters. Summit is predicting a more conservative domestic opening and says Breaking Dawn 2 is tracking more in line with last year's Breaking Dawn -- Part 1 , which grossed $138.1 million on the same weekend a year ago. Breaking Dawn 2 has several factors in its favor, however. It's the final film in the series, which should generate additional heat, and the North American box office has been generating strong results for popular event titles. Online ticketing service Fandango reports that th...

Given the strong deflector shields that director/producer JJ Abrams has thrown up around Star Trek Into Darkness , nothing has been seen from the movie aside from some leaked set images and the jokey, blink-and-you-missed-it “footage reveal” he brought to Conan O’Brien’s show (you can see that below). Now, to reward cinemagoers for their patience, Paramount is releasing nine minutes of the film in front of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey from December 14 in the US and December 13 here in Blighty. Woo! We get it first! The plan is for the footage to play on 500 IMAX 3D screens worldwide ahead of Peter Jackson’s film. Star Trek Into Darkness features several sequences shot specifically in the IMAX format, much like The Dark Knight Rises . It was also post-converted into 3D. “Our longtime partners JJ Abrams, Bryan Burk and the Bad Robot team have really hit it out of the park – the footage is absolutely incredible,” says Greg Foster, Chairman and President of IMAX Filmed Entert...

Several filmmakers, including, most notably Joe Carnahan , have attempted to capture the story of Colombian cocaine trafficker Pablo Escobar on celluloid. But few have gotten their projects through development. Now actor-director Andrea di Stefano is set to get shooting, and has scored Benicio del Toro to play the lead in Paradise Lost . The director also wrote the script, which takes an original approach to portraying the man. It’ll focus on Nick, a young surfer who goes to visit his brother in Colombia and falls for a local girl called Maria. But there’s a problem with Maria, and one Nick can’t easily solve – her uncle is Pablo Escobar . And so the film is described more in the vein of The Last King Of Scotland : it’s not a direct biopic of Escobar, but will instead weave the young lovers’ story around Escobar’s actions. Di Stefano is planning to start shooting this March in Panama. As an actor, he’ll also be seen on our screens in Life Of Pi, which arrives on December 2...
