They are tempted to place him in a nursing home until Frank's son chooses a different option: against the old man's wishes, he buys Frank a walking, talking humanoid robot programmed to improve his physical and mental health. What follows is an often hilarious and somewhat heartbreaking story about finding friends and family in the most unexpected places. The cast is lead by Frank Langella, James Marsden, Susan Sarandon and Liv Tyler.

WRECK-IT RALPH 

The second trailer is for Disney's animated movie WRECK-IT RALPH. Hitting cinemas this November it follows Wreck-It Ralph who longs to be as beloved as his game's perfect Good Guy, Fix-It Felix.

He sneaks into the game with a simple plan—win a medal—but soon wrecks everything, and accidently unleashes a deadly enemy that threatens every game in the arcade. Ralph's only hope? Vanellope von Schweetz, a young troublemaking "glitch" from a candy-coated cart

racing game who might just be the one to teach Ralph what it means to be a Good Guy. But will he realize he is good enough to become a hero before it's "Game Over" for the entire arcade?

HERE COMES THE BOOM

The road trip doesn't go as smoothly as planned, as they're chased by a federal officer (Tom Arnold) and the leader of Charlie's old criminal gang (Bradley Cooper). The trailer is age restricted since it features some really shocking, and I'd say unnecessary, scenes, you will see it yourself :) This one hits cinemas this August. Michael Rosenbaum and Bo Bridges are also in the cast.

RUFUS SEWELL, HAYLEY ATWELL IN BBC'S "RESTLESS" SAGA! CHRISTOPHER MELONI, PAUL RUDD, COBIE SMULDERS IN "THEY CAME TOGETHER"! MAGNIFICENT TRAILER FOR "EPIC" ANIMATED FILM!

She is not respectable Sally Gilmartin but in fact Eva Delectorskaya, a spy for the British Secret Service who has been on the run for 30 years. Eva’s story begins in Paris in 1939. Eva (Hayley Attwell), a beautiful Russian émigrée, is recruited for the British Secret Service by Lucas Romer (Rufus

The final chapter of this epic story of love, duplicity and betrayal is about to end – and who will pay the greatest price remains to be discovered.

HOLLYWOOD SPY HEADLINES

Yet another star to join upcoming romantic comedy THEY CAME TOGETHER, is Christopher Meloni from TRUE BLOOD, although I bet most of you love to remember him most from legendary prison show OZ in which he loved to present his utterly full naked self all the time :) As I've reported before, the film will see Paul Rudd as corporate businessman whose company threatens to shut down a small shop owned by a girl whom he will get in love. Meloni will play Rudd's boss. Cobie Smulders from HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER, who also appeared recently in record breaking AVENGERS, will play Rudd's girlfriend. Smulders will also join Josh Duhamel and Julianne Hough in another romantic flick - SAFE HAVEN, a film adaptation of a Nicholas Sparks novel.

"EPIC" TRAILER

And here's a beautiful clip for you today: the first trailer for 20th Century Fox new animated film EPIC which comes to cinemas May 2013. This 3D CGI adventure will tell the story of a teenage girl who

finds herself magically transported into a secret world, where she must band together with a rag-tag team of characters to save their world - and the real world. Coming from Chris Wedge the amazing author of ICE AGE and RIO, the film will feature a rather stunning voice cast which

will be filled with music stars including Beyoncé Knowles as Queen Tara, Colin Farrell as Ronin, Josh Hutcherson as Nod, Amanda 

Seyfried as Mary Katherine,  Johnny Knoxville as Mandrake, Aziz Ansari as Mub, rap star Pitbull as Bufo, Jason Sudeikis as Bomba and Aerosmith singer Steven Tyler as Nim Galuu.

CALEB LANDRY JONES IN JOHN BOORMAN'S SF ROMANCE "BROKEN DREAM"! "PADDINGTON" BEAR MOVIE! "TEMPLE OF HEAVEN" EPIC ADVENTURE! TRAILER FOR CHINESE EPIC "SACRIFICE"

One of the young actors we find very interesting due to his radiant charisma is young Caleb Landry Jones whom you mostly know by his

role of Banshee in X-MEN FIRST CLASS. According to "Deadline" he will now take the lead role in sf film BROKEN DREAM which is described as a love story set in a futuristic world. It is interesting that famous director John Boorman (EXCALIBUR, BEYOND RANGOON) has been planning to do this project for decades and he apparently spent 20 years looking for the right male lead, after River Phoenix, whom the role was dedicated in the first place, died. John Hurt will play the father of Caleb's character.  Caleb seems to be choosing very unusual projects, since other two of his future projects  ANTIVIRAL and BYZANTIUM also have interestingly weird plots. Bellow you have a very strange clip from ANTIVIRAL.

HOLLYWOOD SPY HEADLINES

Well, here's something that sounds cute: the first poster for PADDINGTON film which should come out in 2014. The mix of CGI and life action will be based on Michael Bond's popular British

 children's book series from the late 1950s that centered on an immigrant bear from Peru who gets adopted by the English Brown family and is given the name Paddington Brown. As you can see on the poster, one of the producers of the film had worked on HARRY PLOPPER saga as well. Meanwhile Warner Bros. has acquired TEMPLE OF HEAVEN an action adventure project which will have elements of ancient Chinese culture and mythology weaved into it. And good news is that Pixar's amazing animated epic BRAVE has conquered the world this weekend earning amazing $150 million worldwide!

SACRIFICE EPIC TRAILER

And your trailer for today is for a lovely Asian visual treat - new dramatic epic SACRIFICE out this July in USA: A story of epic revenge, SACRIFICE, written and directed by Chen Kaige, focuses

on a power hungry general who wipes out his rival along with his entire family, save for one newborn. The infant is protected by the doctor who delivered him and raises him as his own, hoping to mold him into

 his own instrument of retribution. SACRIFICE stars Ge You (from legendary FAREWELL MY CONCUMBINE) and Wang Xue Qi (FOREVER ENTHRALLED). It is based on "Orphan of Zhao" by Ji

Jun-Xiang and is set during the Yuan Dynasty. It is the first Chinese play known in Europe between the 8th and 5th Century B.C., also known as the Spring and Autumn period in China's history.

AARON ECKHART JOINS GERARD BUTLER IN "OLYMPUS HAS FALLEN"! TONI COLLETTE, STEVE CARELL, SAM ROCKWELL IN "THE WAY, WAY BACK"! "GAME OF THRONES" JOSEPH MAWLE IN STUNNING "THE PROTOTYPE" SF TRAILER

Now, I'm not even remotely interested in watching a White House set movie, but this one at least has a very interesting cast: according to "Variety" Aaron Eckhart has signed on to play in OLYMPUS HAS

FALLEN, an action film which has been described as DIE HARD in the White House.  The story revolves around a former Secret Service agent (played by superstar Gerard Butler) who tries to save the White House after terrorists attack the presidential residence. Aaron will have the "honour" to play the president of the United States of America. It is interesting that this Antoine Fuqua (KING ARTHUR) project has a rival film in WHITE HOUSE DOWN which will see Channing Tatum do pretty much the same thing of saving Mr. President who is in this case a black one - played by Jamie Fox. 

HOLLYWOOD SPY HEADLINES

According to "Deadline" a bunch of actors have joined dramatic comedy THE WAY, WAY BACK: Rob Corddry, Amanda Peet and Maya Rudolp have joined Toni Collette, Steve Carell, Sam Rockwell in this comedy in which the story follows a teenage boy (Liam James), who forms a friendship with a local water-park manager (Sam Rockwell). In one summer's time, this new friend helps him come face to face with his abusive stepfather (Steve Carell) and repair his relationship with his mother (Toni Collette).

THE PROTOTYPE TRAILER

Now, here's one of the weirdest trailers I've seen in recent times - the first clip for a very chilling and suspenseful sf thriller THE PROTOTYPE coming from writer/director Andrew Will and THE BANDITO BROTHERS company who made ACT OF VALOUR film . Not much can be found on the film (it isn't even listed at IMDB) but judging from the trailer brilliant Joseph Mawle (great in GAME OF THRONES as Benjen Stark, but he left me speechless in his deeply touching and magnetic role in BBC's BIRDSONG next to Eddie Redmayne who gave one of the most haunting performances ever seen on TV in that mini series) plays

some kind of human robot whom government is chasing and trying to catch after he runs away from a shut down experiment project.  Neal McDonough (CAPTAIN AMERICA) can also be seen in the cast.

SPOTLIGHT ON THIS JULY PERIOD FILMS: "FAREWELL MY QUEEN" WITH DIANE KRUGER! "AGE OF THE DRAGONS" WITH COREY SEVIER, VINNIE JONES, DANNY GLOVER

Summer is usually not the time for period movies, but this July we have two films with period settings and luxurious costumes:

 FARE WELL, MY QUEEN

The first one is  FAREWELL, MY QUEEN, a French film which premiered this February at famous Berlin Film Festival and will hit US theatres July 13th. Directed by Benoit Jacquot the story of the film is set in Versailles in July 1789. Unrest is growing in the court of King Louis the XVI. The people are rebelling - a revolution is imminent. Behind the facades of the royal palaces, everyone is thinking of fleeing, including Queen Marie Antoinette (Diane Kruger) and her entourage. Among her ladies-in-waiting is Sidonie Laborde (Lea Seydoux) who as the Queen's reader has become

quite intimate with her. With great amazement, Sidonie experiences the first hours of the French Revolution. Her status as courtier makes her the best kind of narrator in the film - both an insider and an observer of the royals. She describes the final days before revolution engulfs the palace with insight and surprising slices of humor.

 AGE OF THE DRAGONS

 And to finish in the epic style, here's an epic film which hits cinemas  July 24th! AGE OF THE DRAGONS is a re-imagining of Herman

Melville's classic novel "Moby Dick". Set in a mythical realm where Captain Ahab and crew hunt dragons for the vitriol that powers their world, Ishmael, a charismatic harpooner joins their quest. Ahab's adopted daughter Rachel, beautiful and tough, runs the hunting vessel. Ahab's obsession is to seek revenge on a great "White Dragon" that slaughtered his family when he was young and left his body scarred and mauled, drives the crew deeper into the heart of darkness. In the White Dragon's lair Ahab's secrets are revealed and Rachel must choose

between following him on his dark quest or escaping to a new life with Ishmael. The cast includes Corey Sevier, Danny Glover, Vinnie Jones...

REESE WITHERSPOON IN "MEN ARE FROM MARS, WOMEN ARE FROM VENUS" FILM! DC COMICS' "THE METAL MEN" MOVIE! TRAILER FOR RASHIDA JONES' & ANDY SAMBERG'S "CELESTE AND JESSE FOREVER"

 Ah, it seems that after choosing a number of very serious roles (some even about serial murders and tragic accidents), Reese Witherspoon has found a project in her trademark genre - a romantic comedy. Following the success of their self-help book movie adaptation in WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN YOU'RE EXPECTING, Lionsgate is now

 preparing a film version of MEN ARE FROM MARS, WOMEN ARE FROM VENUS. Reese will take one of the roles in the story that loosely follows the guide to relationships from John Gray's self-help book about the differences between genders. To be based on one of the best-selling non-fiction hardcover books of all times the film should start shooting next January.

HOLLYWOOD SPY HEADLINES

According to "MovieWeb", Barry Sonnenfeld from MEN IN BLACK is attached to direct DC Comic's movie adaptation of THE METAL

MEN. The story of the project which is still in very early stages of preproduction, centers on William Magnus, an artificial intelligence expert who creates six different cyborgs, each made of a different metal on the periodic table. Gold is the leader and can stretch his form in an infinite number of ways. Iron is the muscle of the group, and Lead protects the group from radiation. Mercury can melt and slide into the tiniest of spaces, Platinum, the only female, could stretch or flatten her form, and Tin is the insecure cyborg. 

 CELESTE AND JESSE FOREVER

 And your trailer for today is the first clip for romantic dramedy CELESTE AND JESSE FOREVER which should hit theatres later this year starring Rashida Jones (PARKS AND RECREATION), Andy Samberg, Emma Roberts, Elijah Wood... The romantic film, written by Rashida Jones herself, revolves around a young couple in the midst of a divorce who attempt to maintain their friendship while pursuing new relationships and they try to separate in the most amicable way possible.

STUNNING "DREDD" TRAILER WITH KARL URBAN! HILARIOUS NEW TRAILER FOR "HOTEL TRANSYLVANIA"! DREAMWORKS' "HAPPY SMEKDAY"!

Your main treat for today is the long awaited trailer for sf action DREDD, the remake of famous sf hit from the 90's with Sylvester Stallone. Ready to hit cinemas this September DREDD takes us to the wild streets of Mega City One, the lone oasis of quasi-civilization on Cursed Earth. Judge Dredd (amazing Kiwi star Karl Urban) is the most feared of elite Street Judges, with the power to enforce the law, sentence offenders and execute them on the spot - if necessary. The endlessly inventive mind of writer Alex Garland and the frenetic vision of director Peter Travis bring DREDD to life as a futuristic neo-noir action film that returns the celebrated character to the dark, visceral

 incarnation from the revered comic strip. GAME OF THRONES Lena Headey takes the main villain role of a woman which rules the underground.

 HOLLYWOOD SPY HEADLINES

I've mentioned some animated films yesterday, and here are some more: DreamWorks is working on HAPPY SMEKDAY! a new animated movie in which an alien race invades Earth and uses it as a hideout from their mortal enemy. When one lowly alien accidentally notifies the enemies of his whereabouts, he is forced to go on the run with a teenage girl. The two become unlikely buddies and embark on a comical globe-trotting adventure to right his wrongs, in which our alien hero learns what it really means to be human. Jim Parsons (BIG BANG THEORY) and that horrid pop tart Rihanna will take the lead voice roles. 

HOTEL TRANSYLVANIA

And yet another film to open up in cinemas this September will be animated movie HOTEL TRANSYLVANIA for which I have the

 third trailer. The Hotel Transylvania is Dracula's (Adam Sandler) lavish five-stake resort, where monsters and their families can live it up, free from meddling from the human world. But here's a little known fact about Dracula: he is not only the Prince of Darkness; he is also a dad. Over-protective of his teenage daughter, Mavis (Selena Gomez), Dracula fabricates tales of elaborate dangers to dissuade her adventurous spirit. As a haven for Mavis, he opens the Hotel Transylvania, where his daughter and some of the world's most famous monsters – Frankenstein and his bride, the Mummy, the Invisible Man, a family of werewolves, and more – can kick back in safety and peace. For Drac, catering to all of these legendary

monsters is no problem – but his world could come crashing down when one ordinary guy stumbles on the hotel and takes a shine to Mavis. The cast also includes Fran Drescher, David Spade, Kevin James, Steve Buscemi....

TRAILER FOR "ANNA KARENINA" WITH JUDE LAW, AARON JOHNSON, MATTHEW MCFADYEN! TEASER FOR "MONSTER UNIVERSITY"! AMBER HEARD, LIAM HEMSWORTH, HARRISON FORD, GARY OLDMAN IN "PARANOIA"!

This is actually a prequel to Disney's hit film MONSTERS INC. from 2001. and both Billy Crystal and John Goodman are back to voice a younger Mike and Sulley, along with Steve Buscemi as Randall and plenty others. The story gives a look at the relationship between monsters Mike and Sulley  during their days at the University of Fear - when they weren't necessarily the best of friends. Check out the teaser below!

HOLLYWOOD SPY HEADLINES

 an ambitious young man trying to get ahead in his entry-level job at a telecommunications firm.

Amber would play his love interest who works in the rival firm, while the cast already includes some big names such as Gary Oldman, Harrison Ford, Julian McMahon and young Lucas Till. Meanwhile, young GAME OF THRONES star Kit Harrington has got himself a gig in HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON II in which he will lend his voice to a villainous warrior. Gerard Butler and Jay Baruchel are returning to the film which scored huge success a few years ago.

ANNA KARENINA TRAILER

Now, you know I ain't watching the movie since I can't stand Keira Knightley's artificial facial expressions and acting, but some of you might like the trailer for ANNA KARENINA. Directed by Joe Wright (whose another film, ATONEMENT, Keira ruined before), the film,

looking rather like something Baz Luhrmann would make, is ready to premier this November in US and September in Europe. Adapted from Leo Tolstoy's classic novel the story unfolds in its original late-19th-century Russia high-society setting and powerfully explores the capacity for love that surges through the human heart, from the passion between adulterers to the bond between a mother and her children. As Anna questions her happiness, change comes to her family, friends, and community. The cast also includes Jude Law as Karenin, Aaron Johnson as strangely looking Vronski, Matthew McFadyen as Oblonsky, Emily Watson...

ALEX PETTYFER JOINS STAR STUDDED "THE BUTLER"! IS JOSH HARTNETT NEW "DAREDEVIL"? TOM HIDDLESTON IS "KING OF SOHO"! CAM GIGANDET IN "PLUSH"

Vanessa Redgrave is also in the run for one of the roles. Westphall appears early in the life of Forest Whitaker’s character and has a pivotal influence on the rest of that character’s life. And you can see Pettyfer soon in MAGIC MIKE where he will be stripping his clothes off on the stage next to Channing Tatum and other hunks.

 HOLLYWOOD SPY HEADLINES

I've recently told you that 2003. superhero film DAREDEVIL with Ben Affleck is getting a reboot to be directed by David Slade and 

now, according to latest rumours, he apparently wants almost forgotten Josh Hartnett in the lead role of the blind super hero by night and a powerful lawyer by day. The script for the reboot is currently in the works. Digital Spy reports that one of our fave Brits Tom Hiddleston might play Paul Raymond, famous porn magnate in KING OF SOHO. It is interesting that the story of the porn publisher who owned half of Soho, is also dealt with in Michael Winterbottom's rival project with Steve Coogan in the lead role. Raymond's son is currently trying to legally stop Winterbottom's project. 

Meanwhile, "Variety" reports that handsome hunk

Cam Gigandet, whom we liked a lot as the brave sheriff in sf action PRIEST, will star in PLUSH. He will play a psychologist who can see the inner memories of his patients. He delves deep inside the minds of his patients to help them deal with their own demons. The story intensifies when he meets a young woman (Emily Browning) who has the same gift he does.

LOVE BIRDS TRAILER

 I'm sure you will agree with me that those Ozzies and Kiwis always have the most delightful films and here's one of those: New Zealand

film LOVE BIRDS has been picked up for US distribution and will debut in cinemas this week. The film starring Rhys Darby (Flight of the Conchords) and Sally Hawkins (Happy-Go-Lucky, Jane Eyre), is a delightful romantic comedy featuring the music of Queen, about a recently single man who finds an injured duck and reluctantly decides to nurse it back to health. This propels him on a new journey of self-discovery that leads him into the arms of a veterinarian who, as a single mother, shows him a new way to look at life.
