Gary Ross (SEABISCUIT, PLEASANTVILLE, HUNGER GAMES) will both write and direct the movie  which, set in California's Salinas Valley before World War I,  tells the story of two families over the course of two generations, loosely alluding to the biblical tale of Cain and Abel, focusing on a father, his two sons, and the children's mother, whom they thought was dead. Jennifer Lawrence will play the mother.

'POINT BREAK' REMAKE
LUKE BRACEY & GERARD BUTLER

The 1991 action movie directed by Kathryn Bigelow which starred Patrick Swayze and Keanu Reeves will get a new version following a young undercover FBI agent who infiltrates a gang of thieves who share a common interest in extreme sports. Gerard Butler is already attached to star and now he will be joined by Luke Bracey (GI JOE RETALIATION) who will play the young FBI agent.

They have now found the lead actress too: Debra Messing will take the role of Laura Diamond, a female homicide detective who can handle murderous criminals — but not her hell-raising twin children. The series will follow her life and relationships. The show will be set in New York and as you know Debra Messing already worked with NBC before being the star of their sitcom WILL AND GRACE.


ONE BIG HAPPY SITCOM

They finally get pregnant — just as Luke meets and impulsively marries the love of his life.

300 RISE OF AN EMPIRE
NEW IMAGES OF THE WARRIORS OF ATHENS AND SPARTA
Your photo treat for this Monday are new images showing the valiant and courageous warriors of Sparta and Athens in upcoming epic sequel 300 RISE OF AN EMPIRE. Among the warriors in the original film we had Gerard Butler and Michael Fassbender who later on became superstars, will that happen again? Australian star Sullivan Stapleton is leading them this time as brave general Themistokles and he is also surrounded by Australian actors Callan Mulvey as Scyllias, David Wenham as Dillios and with Scottish actor Hans Matheson as Aesyklos alongside Jack O'Connell as Calysto. Opening in cinemas this March, the film starts after the fall of King Leonidas' 300, when the Persian Army under the command of Xerxes (Rodrigo Santoro) marches towards the major Greek city-states. The Democratic city of Athens, first on the path of Xerxes' army, bases its strength on its fleet, led by admiral Themistokles. Themistokles is forced to an  unwilling alliance with the traditional rival of Athens, oligarchic Sparta whose might lies with its superior infantry troops. But Xerxes still reigns supreme in numbers over sea and land especially when his fleet is lead by vengeful general Arthemisia (Eva Green).

New TV season has brought us many new historical shows and with them some really nice new stars whom we shall spotlight today! Starting with always delightful Tom Hopper whom we first met a few years ago when he was playing the valian knight of the round table Sir Parcival in BBC's MERLIN and who is now entertaining us every weekend in BLACK SAILS pirate show. He is playing just, trustworthy and everybody's favourite Billy Bones, boatswain of the Walrus pirate ship whose belief in the righteousness of the pirate cause is continually tested as he’s drawn deeper and deeper into Captain Flint’s plans for the future. This Autumn we shall watch the stunningly handsome Brit in epic movie NORTHMEN A VIKING SAGA in which he is again using swords and shields and sporting his bulging muscles and his 2 metres tall body.

HANNAH NEW
RULING THE PIRATE ISLAND
One of the pretty new faces that have definitely spiced up and warmed up this winter is certainly gorgeous ice beauty Hannah New from Starz new pirate show BLACK SAILS. She immediately drew attention of the male audience both with her beauty and with her steamy lesbian sex scenes with Jessica Parker Kennedy and the straight ones with hunky Zach McGowan. In the show she plays a sexy, but smart, strong, business minded but also emotional Eleanor Guthrie, daughter of a rich trader, who runs the pirate island and controls all their nasty buccaneer business. British actress, Hannah has majored in English and Spanish at college and she's been both a model and an actress in Spain. This March we shall watch her in Angelina Jolie's fantasy epic MALEFICENT in which she will play Leila, the beautiful mother of young Princess Aurora!


LUKE PASQUALINO
SEDUCTIVE MUSKETEER
One of the freshest of the historical shows, THE MUSKETEERS at BBC is already scoring success with quick action, outstanding music, intricate costumes and great actors playing the king's guards. Among them, sensual and gorgeous Luke Pasqualino is probably the biggest heartthrob playing  the youngest and the most naive of them D'Artagnan. Naive doesn't go for his lady skills, since girls definitely love to chase him around the streets of Paris. Before he put on feathers and frills and leather musketeer jackets, you've seen this British actor in BATTLESTAR GALACTICA BLOOD AND CHROME, in BORGIAS and in SKINS.  He also played in SNOWPIERCER next to Chris Evans. Both his parents are Italian and hence his Italian surname. He dated his fellow SKINS actress Kaya Scodelario.

LAURA HADDOCK
FLORENTINE BEAUTY
Mindblowingly and outrageously stunning Laura Haddock has enchanted us in Starz epic series DA VINCI'S DEMONS playing the seductive and mysterious Lucrezia Donati, a sensual beauty who seduces both Leonardo da Vinci and Lorenzo Medici while at the same time acting as Vatican's spy who has to chose between love and saving her imprisoned father. When the demons return to torment Da Vinci in the second season this March, Laura Haddock will be getting into new adventures. For the role in the show she even dyed her golden locks brown. Laura is also known as the finance of equally stunning young star Sam Claflin (HUNGER GAMES, PILLARS OF THE EARTH). You've also watched her in British DANCING ON THE EDGE and also in UPSTAIRS DOWNSTARIS series and later this year she will play Meredith Quill in GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY, the mother of Chris Pratt's Peter Quill and the lover of Prince Jason of the Spartoi Empire!

X-MEN DAYS OF FUTURE PAST
CHARACTER POSTERS ARE HERE
Your sf treat for today are new character pictures from X MEN THE DAYS OF FUTURE PAST revealing all the main stars of the upcoming movie which will fly into cinemas this May. The ultimate X-Men ensemble fights a war for the survival of the species across two time periods in X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST. The beloved characters from the original “X-Men” film trilogy join forces with their younger selves from “X-Men: First Class,” in an epic battle that must change the past – to save our future.

PROFESSOR X
 MOST POWERFUL TELEPATH
Professor X is played by Patrick Stewart. As the most powerful telepath on earth, Charles Xavier has watched the mutant race be slowly hunted down. But now the time has come to lead his X-Men in their greatest battle- both in the present and the past. Charles Xavier is played by James McAvoy in his younger version.

MAGNETO
MASTER OF MAGNETISM
Magneto is played by Ian McKellen.  One of the most powerful mutants on earth, the ‘master of magnetism’ was at odds with Professor X and the X-Men for decades. But with mutant annihilation on the horizon, old animosities may have to give way to new alliances. In his younger version he is played by Michael Fassbender!

WOLVERINE
 READY FOR TIME TRAVEL
Wolverine is again played by Hugh Jackman.  With the mutant race on the verge of extinction, Wolverine’s healing factor makes him the only X-Man capable of withstanding the rigours of time travel. He’ll have to survive long enough to complete the most important mission of his life: to go back in time to prevent a chain of events that will bring about the end of mutantkind.

ICEMAN
MASTER OF ICE
Iceman is played by Shawn Ashmore. With the ability to generate sub-freezing temperatures, Bobby Drake can create ice projectiles, ice shields, and even coat himself in a full body suit of ice armor.

BISHOP
MASTER OF ENERGY
Bishop is played by Omar Sy.  With the capability to absorb and re-channel energy, Bishop provides much-needed firepower for the mutants at a time when they need it the most.

WARPATH
SUPERHUMAN STRENGTH
Warpath is played by Booboo Stewart!  With his superhuman strength, heightened senses, speed, agility and stamina, Warpath is the ultimate mutant warrior.

BLINK
WARPING POWERS
Blink is played by Fan BingBing. Blink’s dimension warping powers – the ability to teleport people and objects - make her a vital member of the X-Men. But with mutant existence at stake, she won’t be able to keep them safe for much longer.

COLOSSUS
INDESTRUCTIBLE
Colossus is played by Daniel Cudmore. With his incredible strength, gargantuan size, and nearly indestructible metallic form, Colossus is an ideal defender of the mutant race.

SUNSPOT
MASTER OF SOLAR ENERGY
SunSpot is played by Adan Canto. A new mutant joining the resistance, Sunspot has the power to absorb solar energy and rechannel it for superhuman strength, flight, and infrared radiation.

MYSTIQUE
MIGHTY CHANGELING 
Mystique is played by Jennifer Lawrence.  Once a close friend of Professor X, Raven turned against the X-Men and took on the identity of Mystique. With the ability to assume the appearance of any person, she’s determined to protect the mutant race no matter what the cost. However, her actions may end up causing their extinction instead.

BEAST
SUPERIOR STRENGTH
Beast is played by Nicholas Hoult. A student of Charles Xavier and a brilliant scientist in his own right, his unparalleled intellect is surpassed only by his inhuman agility and superior strength.

QUICKSILVER
 ULTRA FAST
Quicksilver is played by Evan Peters. With the ability to travel faster than the speed of sound, this supersonic mutant rightly earns the name Quicksilver.
