Total Recall Farrell

Sometimes it's not enough to eagerly anticipate a movie. These days you have to eagerly anticipate your eager anticipation. That's exactly what trailer teasers are for, so if you are looking forward to looking forward to the Colin Farrell-led reboot of "Total Recall," we have just the thing for you.

The new teaser actually shows off several full effects shots and gives a really good impression of what the movie is going to look like. The scale is huge, and there is even a good amount of Kate Beckinsale to sweeten the deal.

Hunger Games

Judging by the insane box office success that "The Hunger Games" had this weekend, we're guessing that a lot of you probably went to see the movie. And there's a decent chance that a good portion of you hadn't read the novels before you watched the film, and are new to this whole craze.

It seems like we've spent years waiting for "The Hunger Games" to hit theaters and, now that it finally has, we've got to wait 20 more months until "Catching Fire" follows suit. So to help ease the passing of time for fans new and old, we have compiled a list of five ways to keep yourself entertained in the interim period.

So, while the world was busy devouring "The Hunger Games" this weekend, I imagine that at least a few of you feasted your eyes on "The Raid: Redemption." Director Gareth Evans' latest is truly one of the greatest action movies to come along in years. We said as much in our "Raid" review, which you should all go read immediately.

Add to the list of reasons to see "The Raid" as soon as possible: Evans is already working on the sequel. The film, which has an Indonesian title "Berandal," promises to open up the world of "The Raid" in a bigger way than the currently available (and thoroughly awesome) first movie. MTV News spoke with Evans all about his plans—click the video to see what he had to say, and head past the break for even more of his thoughts on the next "Raid."

The War of the Five Kings is set to explode during the "Game of Thrones" season premiere, and we'll be here all week to familiarize you with the key players in the fight. We kicked off yesterday with cruel boy king Joffrey Baratheon, one of the vilest, most loathsome characters in the entirety of "Thrones." Today, we'll examine someone considerably more likable...

Robb Stark

Know Your King
King in the North and Lord of Winterfell, Robb Stark represents everything that Joffrey does not: honor, loyalty and mercy -- to those who deserve it at least. With his father dead, Robb has been forced to grow up well beyond his years to wage war against the Lannisters... but even he has his boyish weaknesses.

Today at MTV News we celebrate the birthday of actor Nathan Fillion. By “we” I mostly mean “I,” because I’m the only one around here with a mini-shrine to Nathan at my desk. But I invite you join me in the celebration, dear reader!

To get the party started, I present to you my Five Favorite Fillion Films, in list form. “Wait,” I hear you say, “Doesn’t Nathan Fillion do TV?” ‘Tis true, my astute fellow Fillionaire – he’s known primarily for his television roles on such shows as “Castle,” “Firefly” and “The Sitcom with Ryan Reynolds and Another Guy and a Girl and a Pizza Place.” But Nathan has done some fine work in film as well (and he will do more, as he’s just been cast as Hermes - a GOD! - in the “Percy Jackson” sequel). My faves are after the jump!

If the tragic passing of Whitney Houston brought about any good, it shed light on the many beloved works that the artist left behind. One of Houston's greatest achievements remains the success of the soundtrack from "The Bodyguard," which is getting a new Blu-ray release.

We have an exclusive featurette from the upcoming video release with a classic interview with the star, about the complex dynamic of the film.

The clip gives a interesting look at the chemistry between Houston and Kevin Costner on camera and how they fostered that believable relationship.

RoboCop

How about some "RoboCop" news to brighten your day? MTV News was lucky enough to catch up with leading man, Joel Kinnaman, while he promoted the second season of "The Killing," and the future half-man-half-cop-robot shared a few intriguing facts about the José Padilha-directed reboot.

"I'm super stoked," Kinnaman said. "Especially with this director. José Padilha is a badass. He’s the real deal."

Kinnaman revealed that the film will be more grounded in reality, partly due to the fact that Padilha's father was a scientist, which had a big influence on the director. "There's a lot of neuroscience now raising the question, 'Is all the intelligence in the human body in the brain?' and they’re finding out that, no, it’s not like that," Kinnaman said. "The body has intelligence itself, and we’re much more of an organic creature in that way. It's not a control tower that does everything."

Angelina Jolie

by Fallon Prinzivalli

Angelina Jolie's "Maleficent" is finally ready to pounce. The Disney film starts shooting in June, and as we already know, the actress has loved the script from the start. The film, as its title suggests, will show another side of the witch, but that doesn't necessarily mean Princess Aurora is now the bad guy.

"It's not anti-princess," Jolie told EW.com in a new interview. "But it's the first time they're looking at this epic woman... I hope in the end you see a woman who is capable of being many things, and just because she protects herself and is aggressive, it doesn't mean she can't have other [warmer] qualities."
