2ND TRAILER FOR "THE WALKING DEAD" 2ND SEASON! MELISSA MCCARTHY IN FOUR NEW COMEDIES! RODRIGO SANTORO & ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER IN "LAST STAND"! DISNEY COVERS "TIME ZONES"

 Delightful Melissa McCarthy, who just won an Emmy as best comedy actress, now has four new comedies in her sleeve. I've already mentioned DUMB JOCK in which she will play a lady with
whom MAD MEN's Jon Hamm is obsessed romantically (to be directed by the director of BRIDESMAIDS which brought Melissa in the centre of attention), than there's ID THEFT in which she will try to steal Jason Bateman's identity, and there's also an untitled comedy in which she will be the mastermind of a plan to hijack the Stanley Cup in order to cheer up her sick husband. The fourth project is TAMMY in which she will play a woman with an exceptionally unfulfilled life who wakes up one morning as things are crumbling around her and decides she has to get out of town. But the only way to do that is in her grandmother’s car and of course her heavy drinking grandmother insists on going along for what becomes a wild road trip to Mount Rushmore.
HOLLYWOOD SPY HEADLINES
 One of our favourite Non-English actors Rodrigo Santoro (famous Xerxes from 300 and the romantic geek from LOVE ACTUALLY), has joined the cast of LAST STAND, a modern western in
which Arnold Schwarzenegger plays a Texas border sheriff who must keep an escaped drug cartel chieftan from escaping into Mexico using only the help of his rookie officers. As "Heat Vision" reports, Disney is preparing a new sf film TIME ZONES in which the world has special time zones, described as fractures in space-time which replace various segments of the world with identical geography at those locations from the past and future. It means that the world can have various locations in time like 1750 in France, 300 B.C. in China and 2065 in New York. In such a world, one man realizes that because time travel is now a matter of geography, he has the chance to change the past and save the life of his wife.

Are you ready for the second season of the globally popular THE WALKING DEAD show? The premiere is drawing close - on October 16th, and it will be broadcast in almost all countries around the world within the same week. A few days ago AMC has released the second trailer for the second season in which,as you
know, the survivors of the zombie apocalypse will try to escape scorching hot, zombie infested streets of Atlanta by going to the country, but alas, it seems some of the undead enjoy country life too :) The bad thing is that the second season will be cut into two six episode parts, with one airing this year, and second one airing next year after New Year and Christmas holidays.

    you haven't? It was the biggest global TV event last year, the first show to be broadcast at the same time around the world, and this year they even increased the number of countries so it will hit around 130 countries each week.

  14. Melissa is a funny woman, splitting season 2 in 2 parts is awful but they got to milk it I suppose but not long now I suppose? Any news on a 3rd season of Justified?

  16. When I first glanced at that photo of Rodrigo Santoro, I thought it was Keanu Reeves. I kept looking for the Keanu Reeves story until I realized that wasn't him after all. Time Zones sounds interesting!

  17. I haven't seen Melissa McCarthy in anything before but she must be good if she's got all those projects!

    @Ella
    Betty White would've been great in the role of her drunk granny :)

    @Lemon
    he is indeed!

  20. @Melsy
    and she also said in a recent interview that she is launching her fashion line for well-rounded ladies :) which could be a hit too!
    Walking with the dead is just around the corner, prepare your fireblasters and crossbows :)

    @Scott
    yep, we've waited for more than a year!

    @Michael
    it's here. it's here

    @Lurk
    sorry, Lurk, never heard of JUSTIFIED before :(

  21. @Budd
    the wait is almost over

    @Suzy
    ah, no, Rodrigo is so much better looking than Keanu :)

    @Clarissa
    you haven't watched GILMORE GIRL? She is currently in MIKE AND MOLLY hit sitcom in USA.

  22. So TIME ZONES is a children's film then? ;^)

    ReplyDelete
  23. Can't wait for the walking dead. I'll prob save up all the episodes and watch them once they all air, so I don't get stuck with some cliffhanger lingering there for months.

    ReplyDelete
  24. A TV series about a modern US marshall starring Timothy Olyphant based on Elmore Leonard novels, fantastic series.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Time Zone sounds interesting, although i'm not sure i would like it to be a childrens film(I'm assuming it will be since it is being made by Disney)

    ReplyDelete
  26. Wow, season 2 of Walking Dead is gonna be killer, no pun intended.

    I remember last Halloween watching the first episode.

    ReplyDelete
  27. @Josh
    off course not :) Disney has films for adult audience as well. Their biggest project for next year JOHN CARTER isn't for kids, for example.

    @Pat
    seems like you have a cunning plan there, PAt!

    @Lurk
    ah, I think someone mentioned it earlier in comments here when I talked about some of Olyphant's future projects.

  28. @Dirty
    read the comment I gave to Josh above this one :)

    @Noah
    it will be a killer indeed :)

  32. I'm really looking forward to the new season of The Walking Dead. Time Zones sounds really good too - I like the idea of geographical time travel. Will have to check this out :)

    ReplyDelete
  33. yep, the zombies have kept us waiting for too long!

    ReplyDelete
  34. Wow, you really shared a lot of information. I feel a little caught up now. I love your blog.

    I would hate to see Dexter cancelled; it it one of my few remaining television shows. Do you happen to know if "WEEDS" will return for their 8th season, next summer?

    Thanks for the updates.

    Melissa
