FIRST MINDBLOWING TRAILER & MEGA SPOTLIGHT ON 'DRACULA UNTOLD' EPIC ADVENTURE WITH LUKE EVANS, DOMINIC COOPER, SARAH GADON, SAMANTHA BARKS

DRACULA UNTOLD
FIRST MINDBLOWING TRAILER
Check it out people! The first absolutely mindblowing trailer for Luke Evan's epic fantasy action adventure DRACULA UNTOLD is here and it brings all kinds of epic fun! Weaving both the historical and the fictional characters DRACULA UNTOLD explores the origin of famous Dracula, mixing vampire mythology with the true history of Prince Vlad Tepes the Impaler. It seeks to depict Dracula as a flawed hero in a tragic love story set in a dark age of magic and war. Starring Luke Evans the film is out this October!

DRACULA TIDBITS
It was originally supposed to be directed by Alex Proyas with Sam Worthington in the lead role and with Abbie Cornish playing his wife, but then they hired Gary Shore (this is his first feature film, before this he was making commercials) who had smaller budget in mind. Luke Evans took over the lead role, and along with him the original name DRACULA YEAR ZERO was changed into DRACULA UNTOLD and later on the release date was postponed from August to October. It is interesting that this is Luke Evans' fourth time to play a God or a royal: he was God Apollo in CLASH OF THE TITANS, Supreme God Zeus in IMMORTALS, Bard the Bowman future king of Dale in THE HOBBIT and now he is the prince of Wallachia!

THE CAST OF DRACULA
 LUKE EVANS & DOMINIC COOPER
Welsh superstar Luke Evans is the historical medieval Prince Vlad Tepes, the Wallachian ruler who would later on become the inspiration for Bram Stoker's vampire. In the film he is a young 15th century prince who, when the lives of his wife and child are put in danger by a bloodthirsty sultan, risks his soul to save them, and in the process becomes the first vampire!
SULTAN MEHMED
Dominic Cooper will play Turkish sultan Mehmed (It is interesting that this won't be Cooper's first time around vampires, since he recently starred in ABRAHAM LINCOLN VAMPIRE HUNTER! ),  who is famous for conquering Constantinople and ending the Byzantine Empire.
SARAH GADON IS MIRENA
Sarah Gadon, whom we watched as a medieval wife of a nobleman in WORLD WITHOUT END, will be that again since she will play Dracula's wife Mirena!
GYPSY CHIEFTAN
 Zach McGowan, whom we watched as the pirate chief in BLACK SAILS, will be a leader again but this time as Shkelgim, a gypsy chief! 
EVIL BABA YAGA  
LES MISERABLES star Samantha Barks will be Baba Yaga, an angelic woman from Eastern European folklore who turns into an atrociously deadly witch.
Thor Kristjansson plays Bright Eyes, who was enslaved as a young boy and is now an Ottoman Empire assassin, while GAME OF THRONES' Art Parkinson will portray Dracula's son, Ingeras.

DEZZY'S HISTORY CLASS
Vlad Tepes, or Vlad the Impaler, was the 15th century prince of Wallachia who inspired the character of Dracula (the name comes from his Draculesti dynasty). He ruled Wallachia (part of today's Romania) while the whole Balkan peninsula suffered under the ruthless Ottoman tyranny. He was a member of the Order of the Dragon and is actually considered a hero in many countries since he protected Christian people from Turkish aggressors. His bloodthirsty reputation from the tales comes from his practice of impaling his enemies. It is believed that he had tens of thousands of victims.

To start airing later this Autumn the 13 episode series depicts the epic struggle to save humanity after a zombie apocalypse. Three years have passed since the zombie virus has gutted the country, and a team of everyday heroes must transport the only known survivor of the plague from New York to California, where the last functioning viral lab waits for his blood. Although the antibodies he carries are the world’s last, best hope for a vaccine, he hides a dark secret that threatens them all. With humankind’s survival at stake, the ragtag band embarks on a journey of survival across three thousand miles of rusted-out post apocalyptic America. Harold Perrineau (OZ, LOST) will play Hammond, the leader of the group headed west! Tom Everett Scott is Garnett, his second in command, while DJ Qualls plays the role of Citizen Z, a computer hacker who joins the team and helps them navigate the zombie infested terrain.

NEW HISTORICAL MINI SERIES 'DEADLINE GALLIPOLI' ON THE FAMOUS WORLD WAR I BATTLE WITH SAM WORTHINGTON, HUGH DANCY, CHARLES DANCE, BRYAN BROWN, RACHEL GRIFFITHS!

DEADLINE GALLIPOLI
WWI HISTORICAL TV SERIES
The spy is bringing you some television updates today from the epic front focusing on the upcoming Australian historical mini series DEADLINE GALLIPOLI which has just rounded up its stellar cast and it has just started shooting as well. The World War I mini series will air sometime next year at Australian Foxtel and will probably be sold to other channels worldwide too. The main star of the mini series AVATAR's and CLASH OF THE TITAN's Sam Worthington is joined in the cast by HANNIBAL's Hugh Dancy, by Rachel Griffiths, Bryan Brown, Ewan Leslie, DRACULA's Jessica De Gouw, Anna Torv, John Bell, James Fraser and GAME OF THRONES' Charles Dance! Worthington is also producing the story of Australian and English journalists who covered the World War I battle!
GALLIPOLI STORY
MEN WHO WOULDN'T SHUT UP!
Three journalists, Charles Bean (Joel Jackson), Ellis Ashmead Bartlett (Hugh Dancy) and Phillip Schuler (Sam Worthington), arrive at Gallipoli with the invading British and Allied troops in 1915. They will report the war but are prevented from getting out the true story of an unfolding disaster. From encampment in Cairo to Anzac Cove to the evacuation, this is the story of journalists who will not accept that truth be the first casualty. This is the story of the men who will not shut up. The actions of these men will help change the course of the campaign, ensure that a strategic disaster becomes a legend of human heroism, and leave an impregnable mark on each  of their lives. Their commitment to the stories of the men turned the war from a strategic failure into a triumph of the human spirit.

DEZZY'S HISTORY LESSON
Gallipoli Battle was one of the biggest allied losses. It was fought by British and French armies battling for the city of Istanbul and the Gallipoli peninsula against the Ottoman forces. The aim was to secure a sea route to Russia. Many Australian and New Zealand soldiers fought as well and the campaign is often considered to mark the birth of national consciousness in those two countries. I've informed you before that Russell Crowe is directing another Gallipoli movie THE WATER DIVINER which will also star Olga Kurylenko and Jai Courtney following an Australian man who travels to Turkey after the Battle of Gallipoli to try and locate his three missing sons.

'THE GOOD LIE' TRAILER
WITH REESE WITHERSPOON
The first trailer has been released for Philippe Falardeau drama THE GOOD LIE with Reese Witherspoon and Corey Stoll in the lead roles!

Fifteen years later, a humanitarian effort would bring 3600 lost boys and girls to America. In THE GOOD LIE, Philippe Falardeau brings the story of their survival and triumph to life. Coming to cinemas this October, the film will see Witherspoon playing determined advocate Carrie Davis, who works tirelessly on behalf of four young Lost Boys of Sudan once they arrive in the US.


'ABOUT ALEX' TRAILER
WITH MAX GREENFIELD, MAX MINGHELLA, AUBREY PLAZA
Second trailer for you today is for August 8th drama ABOUT ALEX starring Max Greenfield, Aubrey Plaza, Max Minghella, Maggie Grace, Jason Ritter...  It is the story of seven college friends who reunite over a three-day weekend, after one of them attempts suicide. When the friends get together to keep an eye on Alex, the weekend that ensues will renew old crushes and resentments, shine light on bad decisions, and ultimately push friendships and relationships to the brink as the group tries to speculate when the simple life of their college years turned so muddy and complex. Sometimes irreverent, sometimes poetic, and always moving, ABOUT ALEX is a searingly honest look at the changing nature of adult friendship in the Facebook/Twitter generation.
