Damon Lindelof Begs For A 'Dark Knight Rises' Intervention In Today's Twitter-Wood

Posted 5/1/12 12:31 pm EST by in Twitter-Wood


Have you seen the final "The Dark Knight Rises" trailer yet?! Wasn't it AMAZING? We were obviously on board from the beginning, but after that trailer, Batman is fighting "The Avengers" for a spot at the forefront of our minds, and we didn't think that was actually possible. "Prometheus" writer Damon Lindelof, who always takes to Twitter for his hilarious commentary, had plenty to say about the video.

"I'm thrilled to see that Tom Hardy's elocution lessons have paid off. #TheRainInSpainFallsMainlyOnTheBane," he wrote, alluding to how audiences can now understand Hardy's lines. He also imagined lines that would exist if he wrote the script, "I've buried enough Waynes. And has my Wayne Tree grown yet? No, Master Bruce, it has not." #IfIWroteDarkKnightRises" He finally begged us for a "TDKR" intervention, "Oh, God, please someone stop me. #ICantStopTheWayne." Never. Ever. It's too hilarious. Please continue!

But don't worry "Avengers" fans, May 1, 2012's Twitter-Wood also features Tom Hiddleston ringing in the NYSE bell with Clark Gregg, Cobie Smulders really excited about Tim Horton's coffee and Mark Ruffalo at the Toronto Premiere!

'Prometheus' Spoilers Unbound In New Footage

Posted 5/1/12 10:08 am EST by in News, Trailers


Prometheus

Have we finally reached the point where any "Prometheus" is too much "Prometheus"? I don't believe so, but I know that after the arrival of the latest international trailer and featurette, some of my colleague at MTV Movies HQ have decided it's time to step away from ancillary "Prometheus" material and just wait until the movie lands in June.

These people have a point. There's no doubt that the newest footage of "Prometheus" reveals and unmasks more than some may have bargained for. Creature design, plot details, possible character deaths… you'll get hints at all of these, some more overt than others, in the new "Prometheus" spots. Personally, all of this just fuels my excitement for Ridley Scott's return to science fiction, but your mileage may vary.

Regardless, you know what awaits you after the break — new footage, and potential spoilers. Move forward cautiously.

Taylor Kitsch, Alexander Skarsgard Talk Life After 'Battleship'

Posted 4/30/12 9:00 pm EST by in Interviews, News, Video


A cast like the one in "Battleship" always has a string of news projects lined up by the time a movie premieres. When MTV News' Josh Horowitz spoke with Taylor Kitsch, Rihanna, Brooklyn Decker and Alexander Skarsgård for "MTV First: Battleship," each actor took some time to discuss their upcoming projects.

Taylor Kitsch had the biggest 2012 of any actor so far (he called it "subtle"), so it's no surprise that the wheel are already in motion for his next film. He will be reteaming with his "Battleship" director Peter Berg for "Lone Survivor" based on the story of a true life SEAL mission. "[Berg and I] are doing 'Lone [Survivor].' We're going to hit camera in September with [Mark] Wahlberg and Ben Foster right now."

Even Kitsch's co-star, Rihanna couldn't help but comment on his next movie. " 'Lone Survivor'? That's awesome," she said.

Posted 4/30/12 7:35 pm EST by in Hot Stuff, Video


There's a war coming. Which side are you on: the giant mechanical aliens invading Earth with peg-shaped bombs and a massive armada at their disposal, or the crew of human resistance fighters populated by a Sports Illustrated swimsuit model, the "Umbrella" singer, an ancient Swedish vampire, and Tim Riggins? Should be a no-brainer, people.

If you need further convincing, you can see all four of those heroes -- actors Brooklyn Decker, Rihanna, Alexander Skarsgard and Taylor Kitsch, respectively -- join together as one for "MTV First: Battleship," airing right now on MTV and on MTV.com. See what Kitsch and the gang had to say about working with Peter Berg, bringing a board game to life, living it up in Hawaii and much more in the video below!

Gina Carano Recalls The 'Bumps And Bruises' Of 'Haywire'

Posted 4/30/12 4:51 pm EST by in DVD, Interviews


Gina Carano

When MMA fighter-turned-action star Gina Carano first met with her A-list "Haywire" co-stars — Michael Fassbender, Channing Tatum, Ewan McGregor and Antonio Banderas — she did so knowing that at some point in the near future, she'd likely have to beat them up.

But according to Carano, that fact never got in the way of their working relationships. "It wasn't about beating each other up," she said. "It was about creating something great, and that's what they do every day on film, so it was nice to be able to share what I do."

Carano spoke with MTV News in the lead up to the release of "Haywire" on Blu-ray this week, and she explained that her approach to fighting on film was not that different from her cage fighting. "I've learned through fighting that you never judge anybody off of what you think you know about them," she said.

Taylor Kitsch Stands By 'John Carter'

Posted 4/30/12 3:37 pm EST by in News


Taylor Kitsch will be battling aliens this summer when "Battleship" hits theaters next month, and that's not his first time fighting enemies from space this year. Of course, "John Carter" didn't exactly light up the box office, but Kitsch is still very proud of his work on the Mars-set science fiction flick.

"My heart was in that film and I'm very proud," he told MTV News during a recent interview at CinemaCon. "I'm standing by it."

The movie was a labor of love for Kitsch and director Andrew Stanton, but it didn't resonate with audiences in the way it was intended. Kitsch clearly still loves the film, and is upset that it didn't do as well as many had hoped.

'Battleship' Brings Brooklyn Decker 'Boob' Envy To Rihanna

Posted 4/30/12 2:50 pm EST by in Interviews, Video


Sure, Rihanna and her “Battleship” pals talk a lot about the Peter Berg-directed blockbuster during “MTV First: Battleship” tonight on MTV and MTV.com. But if you need another reason to check it out, aside from gawking at the magnificence that is that cast (which features Brooklyn Decker, Taylor Kitsch and Alexander Skarsgard), we have one for you right here.

In the midst of the interview, MTV News’ very own Josh Horowitz pointed out just how lovely and good looking the cast is and in the process, may have started a beautiful people feud. That feud resulted in the always-candid Rihanna’s confession that she’d love to have Brooklyn's lady lumps if given the option.
