Jaguar 'Good To Be Bad' Campaign Starring Tom Hiddleston, Ben Kingsley and Mark Strong

Tom Hiddleston’s Jaguar commercial is here! The British heartthrob joins Ben Kingsley and Mark Strong as the stars of a new Jaguar campaign focusing on British villains and airing during the Super Bowl. Hiddleston, of course, plays Loki in the “Thor” and “Avengers” franchises; Kingsley plays The Mandarin in the “Iron Man” franchise; and Strong played Lord Blackwood in 2009’s “Sherlock Holmes” (meaning all three actors have gone head-to-head with Robert Downey, Jr.).


Hiddleston’s commercial shows the star in a suit in a Jaguar as he talks about moving four “business associates in a hurry.”


“I think you know what I’m saying,” he adds.

Hiddleston’s ad follows a previous teaser featuring Ben Kingsley.

While there are a slew of notable actors who would clearly be suitable for the groundbreaking role of Christian Grey in the movie adaptation of Fifty Shades of Grey, there are also a handful that have clearly snuck under the radar such as Iron Man actor Tom Hiddleston.



According to Glamour Magazine, the 32-year-old is "mega sexy," and "can do the kind, lovely man routine - have you seen War Horse? - and with his superhero movie role Loki in Thor, we've seen him do baddy too. All in all, perfect Christian Grey."
With his rugged good looks, piercing greenish color-changing eyes, and blondish mane, the Brit certainly has the features necessary to embody the role of the S&M-crazed billionaire.

Henry Cavill: Box Office: MAN OF STEEL (ALT guide)

Man of Steel Henry Cavill Clark KentMan of Steel box office: Superman 2013 reboot likely to break June domestic record — sort of (Photo: Henry Cavill as Clark Kent in Man of Steel)

Man of Steel will quite likely — sort of — break the June record at the North American box office this weekend, according to early, rough estimates found at Deadline.com. Things started out quite well for the $225 million-budgeted 2013 Superman reboot directed by Zack Snyder (300, Sucker Punch), and starring Henry Cavill (The Tudors) as Clark Kent aka Superman: on Thursday evening at the US/Canada box office, Man of Steel grossed an estimated $12 million, plus $9 million at Thursday midnight shows. That’s quite a bit better than Shane Black / Robert Downey Jr’s Iron Man 3, which opened with $15.6 million from Thursday evening / midnight shows in early May. 


The current opening-weekend-in-June record officially belongs to Lee Unkrich’s Disney / Pixar-distributed, Tom Hanks-voiced Toy Story 3, which scored $110.3 million in early June 2010, or approximately $111 million adjusted for inflation. However, once inflation is taken into account (as it always should) Toy Story 3 is actually behind Alfonso Cuarón / Daniel Radcliffe’s fantasy Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, which collected $93.68 million in 2004, or about $120 million today.

Paul Bettany: Connelly's acting is OK (XPOSE)


Paul Bettany has jokingly played down his Oscar-winning wife's acting skills.

Paul Bettany has joked his Oscar-winning wife Jennifer Connelly is "quite good" at acting.

The British star is currently shooting film Transcendence with Johnny Depp in Los Angeles.

Paul is looking forward to his next project, which will involve him working alongside Jennifer.

"I should be directing a movie I wrote, called Shelter," Paul told UK newspaper The Guardian about his next project. "It's a homeless love story, set on the streets of Manhattan. And my wife is going to be in it, which is nice. She's quite good at the acting."


Paul admitted he's got no idea how well he'll do taking on the director's role. The thespian has worked under the direction of legendary industry figures such as Lars von Trier in the past. His experience of making films such as Dogville and the Iron Man franchise, has taught him what he doesn't want to be like behind the camera.

"Oh God, I guess we'll find out. I know how I'm not going to do it," he explained. "More and more, as an actor, I come on set from the trailer with very little preparation. For the most part, directors have lost faith in actors. Here is what used to happen: You got picked up in the morning and taken to your trailer. You got some coffee and then went and rehearsed the scene with just the director and the first assistant director. That time was written into the schedule. They would figure out how they were going to cover the action and you were part of the process. All sorts of ideas would come out of that discussion."

Martin Freeman: The Hobbit actor was named best hero, while Silver Linings Playbook continued its awards season domination with three wins (RADIO TIMES)

He may play the sidekick to BBC's dynamic detective Sherlock, but Martin Freeman's Hollywood breakthrough as The Hobbit's Bilbo Baggins has won him an MTV Movie Award for best action hero. Voted for by fans on social media sites Twitter and Instagram, the star of the Lord of the Rings prequel (who was absent from the Californian ceremony) scored an impressive 1,637,179 votes, beating off competition from Snow White and The Huntsman's Kristen Stewart, Christian Bale and Anne Hathaway (The Dark Knight Rises), and Robert Downey Jr's Iron Man in The Avengers.

Another absentee on the night was Oscar-winner Jennifer Lawrence who landed the coveted prize for best female performance for her role in award-winning rom-com Silver Linings Playbook. The film also triumphed in the best kiss and best male performance categories which were accepted by Bradley Cooper – although his co-star's no-show was the subject of controversy throughout the evening. Officially put down to a "scheduling conflict", it saw MTV facing a last minute scramble to rearrange a planned sketch with host Rebel Wilson, with even the network's website admitting to an "audibly upset room" in reaction to Lawrence's absence.

Will Henry Cavill Make Superman Cool Again? By: Scott Johnson on March 24, 2013 (COMIC BOOK)



There was a time when Superman was the most famous superhero in the world. He might very well still be, but you wouldn’t know it in America. At Halloween, Batman and Iron Man costumes usually far outnumber the Superman costumes.

Of course, the success of other superheroes has largely been driven by the movies. The Batman movie franchise is by far the highest grossing box office superhero franchise in the U.S. with close to a $1.9 billion total gross. The Avengers franchise is next with a $1.7 billion total gross.


Where is poor Superman on the list? Well, he’s way down below Spider-Man, X-Men, and Iron Man. Superman has only accumulated a paltry $518 million at the U.S. box office. The Dark Knight by itself made more than all the Superman movies combined at the box office.

Now, in fairness, most of the Superman movies were released in the seventies and the eighties before tickets prices reached the inflated levels where they sit today. But the fact that Superman has only had one movie in the last quarter century sort of proves the point of his waning popularity.
