'Prometheus' Featurette Introduces 'A Superior Species'

Posted 4/26/12 11:18 am EST by in News, Video


Prometheus

Yet another tantalizing piece of "Prometheus" video has landed on the Internet today, and though it still reveals nothing about the story, there are definitely a few Easter eggs in there if you look hard enough. "Prometheus" will be Ridley Scott’s first foray into science fiction, the genre he helped define, since "Blade Runner," and to say that we at MTV News are excited about this movie would be a gross understatement.

To the casual viewer, the new promo really doesn’t reveal anything. The video itself seems more like a set of interviews about the director, and not the film itself. And what does Ridley have to say about all of this? “It’s all about everything. I’m one of those directors that comes from the all about everything school.” Very enlightening.

But what the promo doesn’t tell you, it shows you, teasing us with just a few more tidbits that were left on the cutting room floor in previous trailers. Here’s what we found most interesting about the new promo.

Posted 4/25/12 4:14 pm EST by in Video


As a kid, did you ever dream of escaping your hometown with a friend in search of an adventure? Well, if you never got to experience the thrill first hand, it's exactly what two twelve year olds do in "Moonrise Kingdom."

The Wes Anderson film takes place in the summer of 1965 and follows Suzy and Sam who flee from their home in New England to escape into the wilderness. The Sheriff rounds up a search party to hunt them down just as a storm approaches, and the once peaceful town is shaken up beyond anyone in the community's control. The ensemble cast includes Bruce Willis, Edward Norton, Bill Murray, Tilda Swinton and Jason Schwartzman.

As we await the release of the film in May, we have six new clips to tide you over!

Hugh Grant Talks Korean Slave-Owner Role In 'Cloud Atlas'

Posted 4/23/12 2:30 pm EST by in News, Video


Leave it to the Wachowskis to end their four-year-long hiatus from Hollywood with a movie as crazy and complex as "Cloud Atlas." The adaptation of David Mitchell's novel had stars like Susan Sarandon thinking it was "impossible" to make, yet she seemed pretty confident about the finished product. Hugh Grant told MTV News in a recent interview that he was similarly overwhelmed by the Wachowskis' pitch at first, but ended up having a great experience with the movie.

"It's the strangest film, strangest script, strangest offer I ever had. To play six small parts, all of them appalling killers and rapists, and some of them 85-year-old men and others Korean slave drivers. I thought maybe they were having a joke at my expense when they asked me to do it. So I said, 'Is this a joke?' And they said, 'No man, we love you!'" Grant recalled in a pretty convincing American accent. "And so I said, 'All right, I'll do it,' and I loved it."

'Catching Fire' Director Francis Lawrence: Experts Weigh In

Posted 4/23/12 2:06 pm EST by in Video


What do Francis Lawrence and Jennifer Lawrence have in common? Aside from a last name, they're both fixtures in the "Hunger Games" universe, with the former Lawrence stepping in as director of "Catching Fire" after Gary Ross decided to walk away from the franchise.

The hiring of Francis Lawrence has left some fans feeling divided. While many are enthused by the selection of the "I Am Legend" director, others aren't quite as sure about his qualifications for the second "Hunger Games" novel, perhaps the trickiest to adapt of the entire book trilogy. To get more insight into the situation, MTV News spoke with "Hunger Games" experts from across the blogosphere about Lawrence's hiring. See what they think about the choice in the video above.

'Ender's Game' Will Take To The Stars On NASA Soundstage

Posted 4/23/12 11:40 am EST by in Interviews, News, Video


One of the movies we're most excited about in 2013 is "Ender's Game." The beloved sci-fi novel won us over since its release in 1985, and has been in discussions for a film adaptation ever since. It finally was greenlit last year, and we couldn't be more excited about the people who are going to be making the movie.

Turns out Bobby Cohen, who works with "Ender's Game" producer Roberto Orci, is pretty stoked too. When MTV News recently caught up with him on the "Now You See Me" set, Cohen played mum on details about the film's production, but he did express his excitement for the talent they had come on board.

"I have the great pleasure to work with Alex Kurtzman and Bob Orci, who wrote 'Mission: Impossible' and 'Star Trek,'" he said. "Our other movie is 'Ender's Game,' based on the incredible book that people have been trying to make forever. A lot of directors have tried to do it. We have an amazing script. Gavin Hood is directing, we've got Harrison Ford, Sir Ben Kingsley, Viola Davis, Hailee Steinfeld from 'True Grit,' Asa Butterfield from 'Hugo.'"

'Magic Mike' Trailer Commentary: The Naked Truth

Posted 4/20/12 2:00 pm EST by in Trailers, Video


Did that "Magic Mike" trailer leave you wondering: where's Alex Pettyfer? It did for us. It also left us with an answer: who cares? As long as that R-rating really does stand for "rock hard abs," the lady folks at MTV News are going to be very happy about this movie, Pettyfer be damned.

MTV's Christina Garibaldi and Amy Wilkinson teamed up with NextMovie's Brooke Tarnoff to dissect the new trailer for "Magic Mike," the Channing Tatum-starring stripper movie from filmmaker Steven Soderbergh. See what they had to say about the new spot in the video above.

'Bourne Legacy' International Trailer Shows Jeremy Renner In Action

Posted 4/20/12 12:00 pm EST by in News, Video


The Bourne Legacy

Jason Bourne's got nothing on Aaron Cross.

Or at least that's what Universal wants us to think in the new international trailer for "The Bourne Legacy." Though it's less plot-driven than the previously released teaser, this new look at the film is plenty action packed, and that's really all we're looking for.

What this trailer shows us more than anything is that leading man Jeremy Renner was the right person to replace Matt Damon in this franchise. He has a great screen presence, and also looks pretty darn intense during his action scenes. When Edward Norton claims "Jason Bourne was just the tip of the iceberg," we're inclined to believe him.
