'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.

Brendan Gleeson: 'The Company You Keep' Trailer: Robert Redford, (VIDEO) The Huffington Post | By Christopher Rosen



"The Company You Keep" doesn't have an official U.S. release date just yet, but with an amazing cast and crew and a pair of high-profile festival bows in Venice and Toronto, expect one to get announced shortly. That's something you should be excited about, because the first trailer for "The Company You Keep" looks like a cross between "Enemy of the State" and "The Fugitive."

Directed by Robert Redford, and starring (deep breath) Shia LaBeouf, Susan Sarandon, Stanley Tucci, Brit Marling, Anna Kendrick, Terrence Howard, Brendan Gleeson, Julie Christie, Richard Jenkins, Nick Nolte, Chris Cooper, Sam Elliot and Redford himself, "The Company You Keep" tells the story of a young journalist (LaBeouf) who discovers the identity of a former Weather Underground activist (Redford) wanted for the murder of a security guard 30 years earlier. More good news: Lem Dobbs ("The Limey," "Haywire") wrote the script, which is an adaptation of Neil Gordon's novel.

According to THR, there's a reunion in the works since McConaughey is now attached to star alongside Cusack in Daniels' upcoming historical drama The Butler, led by Forrest Whitaker as a White House servant who worked under the reign of eight presidents. Cuba Gooding Jr., Alan Rickman, and Terrence Howard are all attached, too. Read on!

MOVIE NEWS Alan Rickman, Matthew McConaughey And More Up For Lee Daniels' Butler 1 Comment published: 2012-05-10 07:41:33 Author: Kristy Puchko (CINEMA BLEND)




Since garnering widespread notice and acclaim with his Oscar-winning tearjerker Precious, writer-director Lee Daniels has set his sights on even more ambitious endeavors. His upcoming feature, The Paperboy, will make its world premiere later this month at the Cannes Film Festival, where IM Global will be shopping his next sure-to-be star-studded film, The Butler. Based on a Washington Post article that revealed the storied career of African-American White House butler Eugene Allen, the biopic will chart the evolution of politics and race relations through the terms of eight presidents beginning in 1952 with Harry S. Truman.

Forest Whitaker will headline the historical drama, playing the title role. Also on board are Paperboy star John Cusack, Jane Fonda, and Oprah Winfrey. But Daniels is looking to stuff his revolving door White House with stars, and THR reveals Cusack's Paperboy co-star Matthew McConaughey, Cuba Gooding Jr., Terrence Howard and Alan Rickman are said to be up for The Butler. At this time there's no word on what roles these new potential additions to the cast may play.
