'Transformers' Stars Reunite, Tease Jason Statham?

Posted 12/12/11 11:40 am EST by Josh Wigler in Twitter-Wood

There may or may not be more "Transformers" movies in Michael Bay's future, but for now, the stars who previously battled the robots in disguise are still getting along. "Transformers" actors Tyrese Gibson and Ken Jeong reunited over the weekend, and perhaps there's more than meets the eye to their mention of "JS" -- Jason Statham, perhaps? Your guess is as good as ours!

Meanwhile, "Harry Potter" and "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" bad boy Tom Felton conquered Table Mountain over the weekend, Rainn Wilson made a shocking confession about his bathroom behavior and Christopher Mintz-Plasse may have stumbled upon his own secret Spider-Man origin.

'Transformers: Dark Of The Moon': How To Kill A Decepticon

Posted 7/1/11 2:28 pm EST by Terri Schwartz in Interviews

It shouldn't surprise you that "Transformers: Dark of the Moon" has some pretty big action set pieces, but the one that has all of the cast talking is the epic sequence when leads Shia LaBeouf, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Tyrese Gibson end up having to slide down the side of a building.

MTV News caught up with the cast in Moscow recently and asked the movie's stars what it was like shooting that scene. As expected, it was exhilarating, scary and even death-defying. But first, some set-up.

"In order to take out a Decepticon, you have to take their vision out first. So part of that, taking out the vision, is you've got to get altitude that allows you to get the proper eyesight, the proper sight line," LaBeouf explained. "So in order for us to get the right sightline with our snipers, we have to get into this building."

President Barack Obama At The WHCA Dinner And Osama Bin Laden's Death In Today's Twitter-Wood

Posted 5/2/11 3:50 pm EST by Josh Wigler in Twitter-Wood

President Barack Obama shocked the world with yesterday's news that the United States have located and killed Al Qaeda terrorist leader Osama bin Laden, and celebrities throughout Hollywood have taken to Twitter to tackle the development.

We brought you some of those highlights earlier, but the floodgates remain open well into the afternoon today, particularly with fascination over Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's apparent early knowledge of bin Laden's death, and the successful mission's eerie similarities with "Star Trek."

But Obama was a fixture of the weekend's headlines for other reasons, too: namely, the speech he delivered at the White House Correspondents' Dinner on Saturday evening, which included jabs at potential presidential rival and "Celebrity Apprentice" host Donald Trump. Several actors, writers and directors were impressed with Obama's comedic chops, particularly in light of the bin Laden development just one day later.

Looking past politics, one "Fast Five" actor was over the moon with his movie's huge debut, while Olivia Wilde identified a colleage who she won't be making press rounds with again anytime in the near future.

'Fast Five': Vin Diesel And Paul Walker Drive Into The Rock With This Weekend's Release

Posted 4/29/11 10:52 am EST by Chris Arrant in Commentary, Origin Story

The day is here – the day that the fifth installment in “The Fast and the Furious” franchise pulls into American theatres. “Fast Five” has been lauded as both true to the original and an exciting evolution for the franchise, and we’re going to break it down for you.

With the opening of “Fast Five” today in U.S. theatres, it’s a sequel that a lot of people didn’t think would ever happen. The 2001 car racing film “The Fast and the Furious” succeeded past critics and insiders’ wildest dreams, and this new installment takes this pack of racers into what could be their final showdown and into a new direction for the franchise. If you compare this film to a vintage car, it’s been classically restored to its showroom condition but has a little bit of modern muscle under the hood. Find out more about the fast-paced flick past the jump.

New 'Transformers: Dark Of The Moon' Photos Heat Up the Action

Posted 3/31/11 10:45 am EST by Terri Schwartz in Photos, Second Take

"Transformers: Dark of the Moon" is headed towards us on July 1, and Michael Bay doesn't want you to forget what you have to look forward to.

Three new photos (two from Spoiler TV, one from Collider) have surfaced from the upcoming movie, and they highlight the big, blockbuster action spectacle that the latest "Transformers" flick is sure to be. The one important thing they are sorely missing, though, are some big, transforming machines, but there's plenty of other hidden nuggets of fun inside the stills.

(Hint: we might have spoken too soon about there not being any transformers. See what we mean after the jump!)

'Transformers: Dark Of The Moon' Is 'The Biggest And Best' Of The Series According To Tyrese

Posted 2/14/11 12:45 pm EST by Josh Wigler in Interviews, News, Video

"Transformers: Dark of the Moon" is going to be the best "Transformers" movie yet. At least, that's what the folks involved with the production have repeatedly promised. Shia LaBeouf has declared that the third outing will make up for "Revenge of the Fallen," while Michael Bay has also acknowledged the need to craft an epic film in "Dark of the Moon."

Now, add another "Transformers" participant to the chorus of cast and crew members championing the quality of "Dark of the Moon." Speaking with MTV News at the Grammy Awards on Sunday, Tyrese Gibson declared without hesitation: "This is the biggest and best 'Transformers' movie of all of them."

'Fast Five' Trailer Premiere: Vin Diesel And Dwayne Johnson Feel The Need For Speed

Posted 12/14/10 5:41 pm EST by Tom DiChiara in Trailers

The "Fast and the Furious" franchise keeps right on trucking with "Fast Five," which -- in case the title didn't give it away -- is the fifth installment in the pedal-to-the-metal series. This time around, all the familiar faces (or almost all -- sorry, Michelle Rodriguez!) from the previous films are back, including Paul Walker, Vin Diesel, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, a man who knows a thing or two about going "Faster" on the big screen. Sound awesome? You have no idea until you watch the world premiere of the trailer below.

In case your memory is rustier than a vintage roadster left to rot in the rain for 20 years, the last time we saw our heroes, former cop Brian O'Connor (Walker) and main squeeze Mia Toretto (Brewster) had busted Mia's bro Dom (Diesel) out of federal custody and were speeding off into the sunset. When "Fast Five" picks up, Brian, Mia and Dom are on the lam and blowing across borders in their suped-up automobiles, always a mile ahead of the authorities. Read More...
