Guess Which Martial Artist Is Training For Her Role In CAMP X-RAY?

  Who do you think of when you think of martial arts action stars? Automatically, the names Jackie Chan, Tony Jaa, Jet Li, Scott Adkins and Iko Uwais pop into your head. You don’t even have to think about it, especially if you’re a martial arts fan. And on that note….Kristen Stewart. What? Yep! The woman has been training in martial arts since she was FIVE years old. Now, between then and now, no one would have guessed she was an athlete. Sure, she slayed a few demons in Snow White And The Huntsman, and gone hunting with Vampires and Werewolves in the Twilight Saga, but apparently, that’s not all she’s capable of. Point in fact, it may be that she’s capable of a lot more, according to a “mole” quoted over at Daily Star who said “No-one knows this but Kristen is a martial arts expert, she’s practised karate […]

Matt Damon And Paul Greengrass Reportedly In Talks For More 'BOURNE'

Twitch broke the news on Monday that actor Matt Damon and director Paul Greengrass are joined in talks to return to for another installment in the Bourne franchise. The news comes almost a year after Damon spoke to Movieline about the chances of his return since actor Jeremy Renner‘s appearance in The Bourne Legacy last year. “There has not been any movement,” he said. “I’ve always been open to it as long as Paul Greengrass directs, I don’t think he’s going to do it.” Damon went on to explain the difficulties and challenges that could come with Greengrass at the helm to follow the events after Legacy, saying “from what I understand, it kind of relives [The Bourne Ultimatum] from a different perspective. What that means, because they use our actors and characters, is that whatever they said [in Legacy] is true and so we’d have to acknowledge it in […]

Action Star Jason Statham Almost Drowns To Death On The Set Of THE EXPENDABLES 3

In a shocking, roughly English-translated update from Expendables Premiere forwarded from Bulgarian website, Skandalno.net, The Expendables 3 co-star Jason Statham nearly faced certain death while filming a dangerous stunt for the upcoming summer 2014 release. The report indicates that Statham was rushed to the Emergency Room after refusing to use a double to perform a stunt involving his character diving into a pond. When the actor did not re-emerge, the actor was rescued and taken to the hospital where he later regained conciousness and returned to work a while after the doctor reported his condition as non-threatening. Unfortunately, stunt risks are nothing new to the franchise, particularly for lead actor and action veteran Sylvester Stallone who received much-needed surgery for a hairline fracture in his neck after a walloping stunt during a fight with former wrestler turned action star Steve Austin on the set of The Expendables (2010). The 2012 […]

Action, Drama And Big Scale Stunts Highlight The New Teaser For FAIR GAME

Independent filmmaker Eric Nguyen is still a busy man bringing his own vision to indy action and martial arts cinema. These days he’s been working with actor and professional stunt performer Jeffrey Griffith, and now Nguyen is ready to impress with a new short film on the way titled Fair Game. The film also stars Joshua Bross and is based on the story of a consulting agent hired by a security agency to aid an escaped prisoner, only to learn the truth of his mission later on. But I have to say, never mind all that…because that’s Jeffrey riding on top of a moving car. That’s right, A CAR. And I place emphasis on this because I rarely see stunts that big on an independent level. Point fact, I have already noticed the independent screenfighting industry upping the antee on the level of stunt work included in a few projects, […]
