You can also check out new images from THE RAVEN, a film which premieres next March. Shot last winter in Belgrade, Serbia, the film has John Cusack as the famous poet Edgar Allan Poe who uses the help of a young detective, played by amazing Luke Evans, in order to catch a serial killer who is using Poe’s own works as the basis in a string of brutal murders. At some point his fiancee, played by Alice Eve, gets kidnapped by the killer. The film is directed by James McTeigue (V FOR VENDETTA).

ABC has recently released a new trailer for ONCE UPON A TIME which could quite possibly become the biggest television hit among the new projects when it premieres this Fall. The show follows Anna Swan (Jennifer Morrison) a 28-year old bail bonds collector who's been on her own ever since she was abandoned as a baby. But when the son she gave up years ago finds her, everything will change. Henry (Jared Gilmore) is 10 years old now and in desperate need of Anna's help. Henry believes that Anna actually comes from an alternate world... and is Prince Charming (Josh Dallas) and Snow White's (Ginnifer Goodwin) missing daughter. According to his book of fairytales, they sent her away to protect her from the Evil Queen's (Lana Parilla) curse, which trapped the fairytale world forever, frozen in time. Of course Anna doesn't believe a word, but when she brings Henry back to Storybrooke, she finds herself drawn to this unusual
boy and his strange New England town. Concerned for Henry, she decides to stay for a while, but she soon suspects that Storybrooke is more than it seems. It's a place where magic has been forgotten, but is still powerfully close... where fairytale characters are alive, even though they don't remember who they once were -including the Evil Queen who is now Henry's foster mother. The epic battle for the future of all worlds is beginning, but for good to win, Anna will have to accept her destiny and fight like hell.The cast also includes Josh Dallas as Prince Charming, lovely Ginnifer Goodwin as Snow White, scary Robert Carlyle as Rumplestiltskin, dashing Jamie Dornan as Sheriff Graham and Lana Parrilla as Evil Queen.The show will air on ABC on Sundays this Fall!
The Snow White costume is gorgeous. I'm sure the movie will be visually stunning.
ReplyDeleteI think I'll like The Raven. I go for dark movies like that sometimes.
and that's just one of the costumes, imagine all the other ones! Imagine the Evil Queen's costume :) Ahh, Tarsem has never disappointed us!
ReplyDeleteTHE RAVEN should be good :) and POE TV show coming out next year should be good too.
great trailer for ONCE UPON A TIME. And yes I love the costume for SNOW WHITE.
ReplyDeletetwo pieces of wonderful magic today, yes? :)
ReplyDeleteThe costume looks spectacular, but Lilly looks like Frida Kahlo. That woman gave me nightmares. I love Tarsem, but he does have some very strange ideas. He certainly gets people talking, though and there's no denying his awesome visuals. :)
ReplyDeleteCannot wait for The Raven. This pic of John and Luke looks very edgy and intriguing.
Of course ABC is airing Once Upon A Time opposite The Walking Dead. Bastards!
he he you really don't like ladies with bushy eyebrows :) but Tarsem did say he chose Lily just because of her trade mark eyebrows :)
ReplyDeleteAh, I won't have the problem with ONCE UPON A TIME and WALKING DEAD since only the second one is broadcast around the world (usually one day late) :)
Dezzy - I am so excited for ONCE UPON A TIME. Yay!!!
ReplyDeleteit's our kind of show :)
ReplyDeleteI've always been interested in the life of Edgar Allen Poe. Fascinating. He practically invented the detective genre. Plus, I loved the Romantic Movement. So many talented writers emerged from that period. I'll be curious to see how Cusack inhabits the role. He kind of does look the part...eerie.
ReplyDeleteThat Snow White costume is stunning! It's going to be visually incredible!!!
ReplyDeleteRobert Carlyle will be an AWESOME Rumplestiltskin!
ReplyDeleteThat Snow White dress is amazing! This is really something to look forward to.
ReplyDeleteYou know I am growing to like the idea of this Snow White. I know we can't get a lot from it from just that photo, but I am getting a bit of a more realistic fairy tale. The way they were before Disney got hole of them....if that makes any sense.
ReplyDeleteIt is your day on the Icon series today Dezzy!!
The Raven sounds interesting!
ReplyDeleteNever watched Alice Eve since her hawt performance in "She's Out of My League", I hope she's also gonna do well in period setting movie.
The Raven sounds great and that is a stunning dress.
ReplyDeletewow i didn't even recognize john cusack at first. where's he been?
ReplyDeleteI like what tarsem singh does with color.
ReplyDeleteOnce upon a time looks fun.
@Matty
ReplyDeleteCusack's natural similarity to Poe is rather remarkable, they look like brothers :) He is a great choice for the role.
@Jemi
it will! Tarsem's films are always visually breathtaking and totally dreamlike!
@Debra
ah, I remember that you said how much you like Carlyle :) He is already very scary in the trailer itself :)
@Jessie
ReplyDeleteit is, Jessie! It could easily be the best film next year!
@Custie
well, you can expect an extremely creative and visually stunning film with crazy plot and many marvelous twists! Tarsem always makes master pieces!
Thanks for hosting me over at your cassa. I wish you told me you are posting that today, because I wanted to do lots of promo work for it! I never go on tour without some good marketing :)
@Jaccsy
yes, it will be interesting seeing Alice Eve in a period flick since she has a very modern look
@Lurk
ReplyDeleteglad you liked both of those, Lurk!
@Edmund
he's around. He will be great as Poe
@Budd
yes watching him play with colours is a treat itself! And it will be interesting seeing him do a comedy since THE CELL was dark and THE FALL was sad and touching.
All very interesting. Though, that SNOW WHITE dress seems like it would be better placed in a variant of "Alice in Wonderland" to me.
ReplyDeletewell, Burton and Tarsem do have a similarity in both being extremely creative when it comes to visuals, but Tarsem's genius is more refined and honed while Burton's is more on the weird side :)
ReplyDeleteI like the look of Once Upon a Time... mainly for Robert Carlyle, but the overall story sounds pretty cool :)
ReplyDeletehe will do a good role in the show.
ReplyDeleteHi Dezzy, pardon my absence this past week... I'm back now ;)
ReplyDeleteWow, Lily looks like a fairy tale princess indeed. That costume is gorgeous, I love that Tarsem did something totally different from the Disney version.
I was extremely happy when I saw the first pic of Lily in costume! I just knew Tarsem will give us what we expect from him ;)
ReplyDeleteI was re-watching THE BLIND SIDE tonight and finally realized why Lily Collins looked so familiar.
