I’ve always been a big fan of Sacha Baron Cohen, from his days as Ali G (AIGHT), through to his turns as Borat and Bruno, and with his next film, The Dictator, around the corner, I’m getting a Cohen overload. The man is a comedic genius, and he knows exactly what buttons to push to get a response out of …

It’s been far too long since we saw the last update on the final installment of writer/director Edgar Wright’s “Blood and Ice Cream” trilogy. Well, that’s if you can even call tweeting a pic of yourself with Simon Pegg standing thoughtfully in front of a writing board with the film’s title hastily scribbled on it an update. I do understand that …

There’s something mystical about America, in the modern era, before World War 2 hit hard. The art deco stylings, the ruthless gangsters and flagrant disrespect for the law, it’s the age where cowboys died and the wild side of the United States was finally tamed. Gangster Squad is one such film that takes place in those manic days, as Josh Brolin, …

If there was one film this year that I am completely undecided on, it has to be Peter Travis’ Judge Dredd R-rated reboot, Dredd. On the one hand, IT’S JUDGE F#$@ING DREDD, is being written by Alex Garland (28 Days Later, Sunshine) and it has a whole lot of people in it whom I really like. People like Karl Urban, Lena Headey and …

Joss Whedon doesn’t really have fans. No, they’re more like very loyal subjects. I should know, I’m one of them. And one of the reason why we Whedonites love our Supreme Geek Overlord so much, is not just because he’s an incredibly talented storyteller (whether he’s working in TV, film or comics) but also because he knows exactly how to …

Welcome to The Extras! A daily dose of all the smaller movie related news, clips and just plain cool stuff that you might have missed!

“From Ben Affleck, director of…” Skip back about 3 years, and I would have greeted that quote with much eye-rolling and/or sniggering. Despite all his early promise as an actor, Affleck had just kept on starring in inconsequential fluff at best, Gigli at worst. And then in 2007, he must have just got sick of being in other people’s movies, …

James Bond is the man. He’s the suave super-duper secret agent that we all wanted to be when we grew up, all thanks to his flippant attitude, Casanova skills and propensity to kick any ass that came his way. He’s also the granddaddy of bullet-dodging, as his ability to avoid high velocity lead is second to none. So just how many bullets …

If you’ve ever been hard up on cash, guys, then heading off to a Sperm donation clinic is usually a quick way to make a few bucks, with the help of Mrs Palmer. Vince Vaughn knows this in his next movie deal, as he prepares to havethea legal battle from hell on his hands, when we he finds out how …

It’s been touch and go for a while, but it looks like comic book artist John Romita Jr’s hasn’t just been sniffing his own ink too long and that his claims that the sequel to 2010 cult hit Kick-Ass is finally moving forward, is actually coming true. THR is reporting that Matthew Vaughn, who directed, produced and self-financed the hardcore comic book …

Hollywood loves their musicians, but they love their dead musicians even more. Johnny Cash, Elvis and Dewey Cox have all been the subject of some great films, but one legendary member of club 28 that hasn’t had much silver screen exposure was Jimi Hendrix. Even though his estate is more than keen to re-release and profit off of his work …

Following on from yesterday’s announced departure of Jessica Chastain from Iron Man 3 due to her coming down with an acute case of Too-Much-Damn-Work, Marvel Studios has apparently wasted no time in finding a replacement. Variety is reporting that the studios will in fact not be going with the the 3 other actresses (Gemma Arterton, Diane Kruger and Isla Fisher) whose …
