THE KILL ROOM Adds Joe Manganiello For Spring Production
Cameras are set to roll this Spring in New York and New Jersey for dark comedy crime pic, The Kill Room, according to Deadline’s Andreas Wiseman reporting on the addition of actor Joe Manganiello (Archenemy, Zack Snyder’s Justice League) to the cast. The film, first announced in the trades at the start of April, joins the actor with previously-cast Pulp Fiction cohorts Samuel L. Jackson and Uma Thurman. Penned by Jonathan Jacobson with Nicol Paone tapped to direct, The Kill Room charts “the story of a hitman (Manganiello), his boss (Jackson) and an art dealer (Thurman) whose money-laundering scheme accidentally turns the hitman into an overnight avant-garde sensation, forcing Thurman’s character to play the art world against the underworld.” The film will hit the Cannes market in May with producer Yale Entertainment’s sales and distribution banner, Great Escape, handling international sales and co-repping U.S. rights with ICM Partners, according to […]
THE HITMAN’S WIFE’S BODYGUARD Trailer: Reynolds, Jackson And Hayek Go Full Throttle For The Sequel
Patrick Hughes’ The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard may not be rated yet, but that’s likely to change given the violent, off-the-wall action comedy morsels we get to peep in the newest trailer. What’s more is the film is set for June 16 in theaters and IMAX, an opportune moment at that as the CDC lifts restrictions for fully vaccinated moviegoers. The world’s most lethal odd couple – bodyguard Michael Bryce (Ryan Reynolds) and hitman Darius Kincaid (Samuel L. Jackson) – are back on another life-threatening mission. Still unlicensed and under scrutiny, Bryce is forced into action by Darius’s even more volatile wife, the infamous international con artist Sonia Kincaid (Salma Hayek). As Bryce is driven over the edge by his two most dangerous protectees, the trio get in over their heads in a global plot and soon find that they are all that stand between Europe and a vengeful and powerful […]

It’s been three years since the completion of Todd Robinson’s new military war drama, The Last Full Measure.

SHAFT: Slapstick Adds To The Crimefighting Family Business In The Official Trailer
Imaginably, I would have thought director Tim Story’s follow-up from John Singleton’s 2000 continuation of the Shaft franchise would be a bit darker than what’s presented in the first official trailer. Usual comedy aside, what we get here seems a bit extra and feels more like a fish-out-of-water crime romp written by someone trying to grow from their previous workdesk at Disney. That’s just me for the time being. Alas, it’s the first sample of what’s now being slated for release in theaters on June 14 from Warner Bros. Samuel L. Jackson and original franchise star Richard Roundtree are joined by Jesse T. Usher whose take on the classic blaxploitation saga aims to put a fair millenial stamp on things while fronting the popular character for a new generation of moviegoers. JJ, aka John Shaft Jr. (Usher), may be a cyber security expert with a degree from MIT, but to […]

THE HITMAN’S BODYGUARD Sports An All-Too Familiar-Looking Poster
I don’t think anyone generally knew that the marketing for director Patrick Hughes’s latest action thriller, The Hitman’s Bodyguard, was going to be such a hilarious pisstake. Given the latest official artwork debut however, it appears they’re not kidding. Indeed, we have Samuel L. Jackson holding onto Ryan Reynolds for dear life as the story follows the world’s top protection agent assigned to guard his worst enemy, the world’s deadliest assassin from attempts on his life by a powerful dictator, played by Gary Oldman. Also starring is actress Salma Hayek along with Elodie Yung and others for its August 18 release and while we’ve yet to learn anymore about the film, I think the first NSFW trailer from Wednesday states the film’s case just fine… this one is gonna be too much fun. Peep the ink below!
THE HITMAN’S BODYGUARD Targets The Deadpool Fanbase In The Restricted First Trailer For The Ryan Reynolds Action Thriller
Patrick Hughes gets it. Sure, The Expendables 3 may have been a measurable misfire, but judging by the first trailer for his latest endeavor, The Hitman’s Bodyguard, you get the feeling you’re on familiar territory and especially after taking in so much of actor Ryan Reynolds through all of the Deadpool fan fervor. It’s a good move. A smart move, and right next to casting Samuel L. Jackson to keep the buddy formula going, the film looks nothing short of the very promise we missed out on three years earlier. The world’s top protection agent [Ryan Reynolds] is called upon to guard the life of his mortal enemy, one of the world’s most notorious hitmen [Samuel L. Jackson]. The relentless bodyguard and manipulative assassin have been on the opposite end of the bullet for years and are thrown together for a wildly outrageous 24 hours.

Actor Vin Diesel took to Facebook Live for the official launch of the third trailer for the upcoming release of xXx: The Return Of Xander Cage.

SDCC 2016: The New KONG: SKULL ISLAND Trailer Is No Joyride!
Far and away from its origins established in 1933 and echoed years later in Peter Jackson’s own remake, director Jordan Vogt-Roberts delivers his own take on the King Kong mythology with the new film, Kong: Skull Island. The first official trailer surfaced at Comic Con International at San Diego over the weekend and as the first of a reportedly hopeful progression into a franchise that could see our very leading royalty go toe-to-toe with Godzilla, this effort doesn’t seem to disapppoint. In March 2017, the producers of Godzilla transport audiences to the birthplace of one of the most powerful monster myths of all in KONG: SKULL ISLAND, from Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures. When a scientific expedition to an uncharted island awakens titanic forces of nature, a mission of discovery becomes an explosive war between monster and man. Tom Hiddleston, Samuel L. Jackson, Brie Larson, John Goodman and John […]
The New Trailer For xXx: THE RETURN OF XANDER CAGE Kicks Ass And Looks Dope Doing It
…And because 2017 wouldn’t be a normal year with just one Vin Diesel movie, director D.J. Caruso is poised to release the long-awaited trilogical installment to the daredevil action franchise, xXx: The Return Of Zander Cage. Bearing in mind, of course, the utter flop that came with the 2005 sequel that followed Rob Cohen’s 2002 original, the film does carry some weight in having to pick up the slack. Well, you do get Samuel L. Jackson reprising his role once more from the earlier two films, as well as a list of beautiful femme fatales played by Deepika Padukone, Ruby Rose and Nina Dobrev. What? Not enough? Ohhh k ok, how about we throw in the first time pairing of Donnie Yen and Tony Jaa, along with UFC Middleweight champion Michael Bisping for good measure? Sound neat? Well, all that and more as a reward for our patience can now […]
