THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER
Fox brought out the entire cast of X-Men: Days of Future Past for Comic-Con, sending Hall H into pandemonium.
Ellen Page, Shawn Ashmore, Anna Paquin, Halle Berry, Ian McKellan, Patrick Stewart, Hugh Jackman, James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Hoult, Peter Dinklage, and several others were introduced to a roaring crowd that was screaming after every other sentence from the actors.
“I was in the halls this morning,” said McAvoy. “It’s amazing the passion you guys have so it’s awesome to be among you.
Every actor was given a moment to say a few words to the enthralled audience. McKellan scored major points from the crowd for getting a little political.
“I feel safe here now that you’ve gotten rid of Proposition 8," he said. Then, turning to Fassbender, he added, “Looking for a husband. It’s nice to meet you Michael."
After the panel, Singer tweeted a thank you to fans along with a photo of the cast.

New Pics Of Michael Fassbender, James McAvoy & Peter Dinklage On The Set Of ‘X-Men: Days Of Future Past’ (FLICKS AND BITS)
Lainey Gossip have got their mitts on these two new images from the set of ‘X-Men: Days of Future Past,’ featuring Michael Fassbender, James McAvoy and Peter Dinklage in their 70s garb. While nothing has been confirmed, the ‘Game of Thrones’ Emmy and Golden Globe Award winning actor has been rumored to be playing the villainous Bolivar Trask in the film. ‘X-Men: Days of Future Past,’ the seventh installment in the ‘X-Men’ film series, started filming last month in Montreal, Canada. It will be the first film in the ‘X-Men’ film series to be filmed in 3D.
With director Bryan Singer merging past and present ‘X-Men’ actors for ‘X-Men: Days of Future Past,’ the director has announced that Anna Paquin (Rogue), Ellen Page (Kitty Pryde), Halle Berry (Storm), Daniel Cudmore (Colossus) and Shawn Ashmore (Iceman) will be joining the film – which is ostensibly a sequel to ‘X-Men: First Class,’ but will prominently feature actors from the first ‘X-Men’ trilogy. Additionally, Hugh Jackman will be playing Wolverine again, and Ian McKellen and Patrick Stewart are to reprise their roles as Magneto and Professor X, with Michael Fassbender and James McAvoy returning to play younger versions of the same characters in the film. Seeds of a tie-in between the trilogies were sown when Jackman cameoed as Wolverine in ‘X-Men: First Class.’ Jennifer Lawrence, Omar Sy, Fan Bingbing, Booboo Stewart, Adan Canto, Evan Peters and Nicholas Hoult have also been confirmed to star.

Pierce Brosnan: "I didn't think I'd find love again, now I live the life of Riley and have a belly" DailyMirror
On screen he’s romanced many of the most beautiful women in the world.
Halle Berry, Meryl Streep, Salma Hayek and Rosamund Pike are just a few to have starred opposite Pierce Brosnan.
But no matter how undoubtedly desirable they all are, his wife Keely is absolutely fine with his on-screen liaisons.
“She calls it ‘legal cheating’,” says the former James Bond star. “My wife is very cool. She has a great sense of humour about it, a great sense of who she is as a woman and security and faith within me.”
To hear Brosnan gush about Keely, it’s no surprise she has complete confidence in their relationship.
“She is the most beautiful woman and someone who has been my North Star for many a day and a year now. We just celebrated 19 years of life together,” he says.
The pair met in 1994 when the former journalist interviewed him, and they tied the knot in Ireland seven years later.
A grief-stricken Brosnan had sworn never to marry again after losing first wife Cassandra to ovarian cancer in 1991, when she was just 43.
The memories of this heart-breaking period in his life, when he was left to bring up their eight year-old son Sean, undoubtedly came flooding back, while making his latest movie, Danish romantic comedy Love Is All You Need. Brosnan gives an acclaimed performance as heartbroken widower and father-of-one Philip, whose life changes after he meets cancer survivor Ida.
Brosnan says: “As a man who has gone through the rigours of loss and dealing with family, I guess there was something there I could draw on.
“I know what it is like to be a widower and what it is like to find love again. So I know there’s hope and that you have to learn to get on with it. Ups and downs are what life is all about. But the memory of Cassie and her fight against cancer is never forgotten.”
Cassie was the one who pushed him to go to Hollywood. That move landed him the starring role in the detective series Remington Steele from 1982 and which ultimately led to him playing 007 in four Bond films.

Watch the red band trailer below (Note: adult content):
Highly offensive language (to some) and completely inappropriate behavior (to others) AND Gerard Butler plays a cursing leprechaun. The world can officially end now.

'Movie 43' Trailer: Gerard Butler and a Plethora of Stars Get Raunchy (ADULT ONLY PLEASE!!!) 9:02 AM PDT 10/3/2012 by Jordan Zakarin (THR)
The omnibus sketchy comedy flick features Hollywood's A-List doing things that probably won't help any Oscar chances. It's a long tradition: dramatic movie stars heading to play against type on television. Jon Hamm does it frequently, including on 30 Rock; Kate Winslet and many others did it for Ricky Gervais' show Extras; and there have been 38 years worth of unexpected hosts of Saturday Night Live.
Hollywood, however, has never seen ego subversion on the scale promised by Movie 43.
Offensive language - naked women - politically incorrect behavior - where did this movie come from? I never heard of it before. Just plain wrong! Can't wait.

Hugh Grant as Killer Rapist in Cloud Atlas: Six Other Actor Transformations ArticleComments 0 By Nicholas Edmondson: Subscribe to Nicholas's RSS feed July 27, 2012 4:15 PM GMT (INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS TIMES)
Hugh Grant's fans would typically expect to see him sipping a cappuccino in a middle-class bistro as part of a gentle romantic comedy.
But the owner of England's most famous foppish fringe is sure to raise a few eyebrows with his performance in the adaptation of David Mitchell's Cloud Atlas.
In the film, which takes in a number of interconnected stories from the 19th century to a post-apocalyptic future, Grant play several cameo roles, including that of a cannibal.
Grant had grown frustrated with his typecasting as the go-to British romantic comedy star following great success in Richard Curtis' Four Weddings and a Funeral, and Notting HIll.
He told Empire: "I do a lot of killing and raping. I wear an awful lot of prostheic makeup. You probably wouldn't know I was in the film. But it was a laugh. I slightly called my own bluff."

Hugh Grant Reveals One Of Halle Berry's Roles In Cloud Atlas 0 Comments published: 2012-04-24 10:16:19 Author: Katey Rich (CINEMA BLEND)
It's kind of hard to get any specific details about the upcoming adaptation of Cloud Atlas-- and even if you got them, it'd be hard to know what to make of them. David Mitchell's famously sprawling, genre-bending novel has been adapted by the trio of the Wachowski siblings Lana and Andy and Tom Tykwer, along with an all-star cast that includes Tom Hanks, Halle Berry, Ben Whishaw, Hugo Weaving, Susan Sarandon, Jim Sturgess and Hugh Grant. Each of the actors will play at least six different parts in the inter-weaving narratives, which range from the adventures of an American intellectual traveling in the South Pacific in the 19th century to a futuristic society in Hawaii, where the last remaining humans live like early natives after the rest of humanity self-destructs.

Hugh Grant rules out ‘stuttering’ roles added: 10 Apr 2012 // by: Film-News.co.uk Newsdesk
Hugh Grant refuses to play anymore “stuttering British guys” in movies.
The actor is renowned for starring in romantic comedies including Four Weddings and a Funeral and Notting Hill. However, Hugh insists he is moving on to more challenging roles in movies such as Cloud Atlas. He plays six different characters in the film which also stars Tom Hanks and Halle Berry.
"What I don't want to play anymore are stuttering British guys with dishevelled hair that are confused by love. These times are definitely over,” he told the German edition of InStyle. “In Cloud Atlas I play six incarnations of evil. That's something which interests me."
Based upon the sci-fi novel by David Mitchell, Cloud Atlas follows six intricately related stories that travel from the remote South Pacific in the nineteenth century to a distant, post-apocalyptic future. Hugh admits playing so many different roles was difficult and worries he is only capable of pulling off one type of character.

Hugh Grant to portray six different villains in 'Cloud Atlas' film (On The Red Carpet)
Posted 02/16/2012 3:53 PM PT by Olivia Allin
Hugh Grant says he wasn't sure if he could pull off portraying six different villains in his upcoming film, "Cloud Atlas." "I have six cameo parts in this strange, ambitious film," Grant told Empire magazine. "I do a lot of killing and raping. I wear an awful lot of prosthetic make up, too. You probably won't know that I am in the film! But it was a laugh. I thought before I read it that I'd turn it down, which I normally do, but I was interested in meeting the Wachowskis because I have always admired them enormously. And they are so charming and fascinating."
The 51-year-old actor has more often appeared in Romantic Comedies than Science Fiction films, but says he realized the film was going to be more of a challenge than what he was used to. "In one of the parts I am a cannibal, about 2000 years in the future, and I thought, 'I can do that. It's easy,'" Grant said. "And then I am suddenly standing in a cannibal skirt on a mountaintop in Germany and they are saying, 'You know, hungry! We must have that flesh-eating, like a leopard who is so hungry...' and I am thinking, 'I can't do that! Just give me a witty line!'"
The film, which is based on a novel by David Mitchell, follows six different interconnected stories set in different times and place, including that of a journalist who investigates alleged corruption at a nuclear power plant in 1975 and a tribesman living a primitive life in a post-apocalyptic future. The movie, which is slated for release on October 19, 2012, also stars Tom Hanks, Hugo Weaving, Jim Sturgess, Halle Berry and Susan Sarandon.

Halle Berry, Tom Hanks & Hugh Grant star in Cloud Atlas (Dir. Tykwer/Wachowski) | Film News
December 10, 2011 by Cheyenne Davis
Filed under Film, News
A a star-filled cast including Oscar winning actress Halle Berry, Tom Hanks, Hugh Grant, Keith David and Jim Sturgess, have been enlisted by German director Tom Tyker [Perfume: The Story of a Murderer, The International] and The Wachowskis [best known for The Matrix] to work on new film Cloud Atlas, due to hit screens late next year.
Based on the British Book Awards Literary Fiction Award winning, Booker Prize nominated novel written by David Mitchell the film synopsis describes Cloud Atlas as, “An epic story of humankind in which the actions and consequences of our lives impact one another throughout the past, present and future as one soul is shaped from a murderer into a savior and a single act of kindness ripples out for centuries to inspire a revolution.”
The multi-storylined film has the actors playing multiple roles. “The biggest change for me as an actor is to have two different film units and two different film crews and to go between the two from one day to the next,” Halle Berry told NYTimes.
She described playing “a Jewish woman in the 1930s” for the third director, Tom Tykwer, then becoming “an old tribal woman” for the Wachowski siblings the next day, and losing track of fellow cast members amid the layers of makeup and costumes.
“Some days I go into the trailer, I’ll be having a conversation — I won’t even know it’s with Hugh Grant until five minutes in,” Ms. Berry said.Not much has been revealed about whether or not the film will replicate the book in depth or what the film will look like. Having already created a screenplay on the novel, The Wachowskis will surely create a director’s twist to it.
“It looks phantasmagorical,” said Victor Loewy, a seasoned international film distributor who bid on the United Kingdom rights after watching a six-minute clip at the American Film Market in Santa Monica last month. “It’s so unlike anything I’ve seen in 40 years in this business.”
Cloud Atlas expected to hit cinemas in late 2012 will be distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures. Looks like a good one

Hugh Grant Joining the Impressive Cast of Wachowskis' 'Cloud Atlas'
Hugh Grant Joining the Impressive Cast of Wachowskis' 'Cloud Atlas'
Likely Grant will be taking on multiple roles like the rest of the cast as the story follows six plot threads across time—a 19th century notary on a Pacific expedition, a bisexual musician in the 1930s, a female journalist in a thriller in 1970s California, an aging publisher in London in the present, a clone in a futuristic dystopia, and a Pacific survivor in a post-apocalyptic world. What makes this even crazier is all these worlds fold in on themselves. Grant is certainly a welcome addition to this already impressive cast, and I just can't wait to see what the Wachowskis and Tykwer doing with such complex source material.
