The Long-Awaited First Trailer for 'Fantastic Four' is Here!

Here it is! After months of literally nothing from Josh Trank's Fantastic Four reboot, yesterday we got our first official set photo and now the trailer has arrived weeks ahead of schedule. From the beginning it's been clear that Trank was working from a very different version of Marvel's "First Family" than fans were accustomed to, and with the melancholic, deep sci-fi flavor of this trailer he seems to have hit the nail on the head. And the best part is that it still keeps plenty under wraps to be discovered later. Impressive, but the key is going to be how the fanboys react.

The film stars Miles Teller as Reed Richards, Kate Mara as Sue Storm, Michael B. Jordan as Johnny Storm, and Jamie Bell as Ben Grimm with Toby Kebbell as Doctor Doom, renamed Victor Domashev. Here's the official synopsis:

FANTASTIC FOUR, a contemporary re-imagining of Marvel’s original and longest-running superhero team, centers on four young outsiders who teleport to an alternate and dangerous universe, which alters their physical form in shocking ways. Their lives irrevocably upended, the team must learn to harness their daunting new abilities and work together to save Earth from a former friend turned enemy.

Fantastic Four opens August 7th.

Teaser for Eli Roth's Sundance Horror 'Knock Knock' with Keanu Reeves '

Fresh off last night's premier here at Sundance in the Park City at Midnight section, Eli Roth has released the teaser for his latest horror, Knock Knock. Starring Keanu Reeves, Colleen Camp, Lorenza Izzo, Ana de Armas, Aaron Burns, and Ignacia Allamand, the film centers on a successful family man who opens the door to chaos when he invites two wild girls into his home. The result is something that looks resembles Funny Games, only given Roth's twisted touch.

Check out the official synopsis followed by the teaser.

Evan Webber (Keanu Reeves) is living the dream. Just look at his beautiful, successful wife, his two wonderful kids, and his truly stunning house—which he designed himself. Of course he did. Things are going so well, Evan doesn't even mind spending Father's Day alone while the rest of his family heads out for a beach weekend. And then there’s a knock on the door.

The two young women (Lorenza Izzo and Ana de Armas) standing on Evan's doorstep are where Evan's dream takes a nightmarish turn. Given co-writer/director Eli Roth's well-deserved reputation for creating cinematic discomfort, it should come as no surprise what happens next: Things get weird, and then dark, and then much, much, much darker. But this is no splatter film, so Roth keeps the horror nice and psychological as Evan's life—and house—get ripped apart, piece by beautiful piece.

Trailer for Star-studded Comedy 'She's Funny that Way' with Owen Wilson and Jennifer Aniston

It has been more than a decade since acclaimed director Peter Bogdanovich's last feature, but clearly he hasn't lost an ounce of clout. He was able to gather Owen Wilson, Imogen Poots, Jennifer Aniston, Will Forte, Rhys Ifans, and many more for the screwball comedy She's Funny That Way, and now the first trailer is here to show how he puts all that talent to use.

The film centers on a prostitute/aspiring actress who has a fling with a very married Broadway director, then complicates matters by showing up to star in his new play which has his wife in the leading role. Does it all come together? Early reviews have been mixed but this trailer makes it look pretty stale.

She's Funny that Way opens April 10th.

New Trailer for Sundance Drama 'Partisan' starring Vincent Cassel

Day one of the Sundance Film Festival has come and gone, and while it doesn't really kick into high gear until today, some movies are already starting to emerge as ones to look out for. One of those is Ariel Kleinman's Partisan, which stars the always-commanding Vincent Cassel in the story of a young boy trying to become a man in a community that doesn't value free expression. Here's the official synopsis:

"The charismatic Gregori (Vincent Cassel) saunters into a hospital maternity ward and charms new mother Susanna. Eleven years later, she and her son Alexander live in Gregori’s closed community, sheltering vulnerable women and their brood in a haven isolated from the outside world. Alexander is Gregori’s prize pupil, eldest son, and star employee in the cottage industry—in which the kids are trained to run dangerous errands to provide for the group—but Gregori feels threatened by the boy’s inquisitive nature, struck by the fear that his child might not love him anymore. Meanwhile, Alexander begins to think for himself."

A new trailer for the film has been released ahead of its premiere this weekend. Check it out below!

Salma Hayek Shows Off Her Guns in Action-Packed 'Everly' Trailer

If you're someone who likes to watch extremely hot women kick a lot of ass and fire big guns, then Everly is what you've been waiting for. Directed by Joe Lynch, this balls to the wall action flick stars Salma Hayek as a prostitute who turns on her boyfriend, a yakuza boss, and naturally becomes a target for assassination. Trapped in her apartment, she must overcome wave after wave of hired killers using every weapon at her disposal.

Remember when this was going to star Kate Hudson? That might've been cool but Hudson can't bring it like Hayek can.

So it's kind of like The Raid only much sexier. Everly hits VOD on January 23rd and goes into theaters February 27th. Check out the new trailer below!

The '90s are Back in Trailer for 'Dope' Starring Tony Revolori, Zoe Kravitz, and Shameik Moore

Remember the '90s and all the movies about crime, drugs, and growing up in the "hood"? The days of Boyz 'N the Hood and Menace II Society may have long passed, but Rick Famuyiwa is looking to make it new again with Dope, his new new film which is debuting at Sundance later this week and already is gaining a ton of buzz.

Looking like a cross between Famuyiwa's directorial debut, The Wood, and the classic Ice Cube comedy Friday, Dope centers on Malcolm, a high school geek with a high-top fade, Cross Colours, and an appreciation for anything old school. But it also makes him stand out from the pack, and that's not always a good thing when you're living in The Bottoms, one of the toughest areas in Inglewood, CA. The film stars Shameik Moore, Zoe Kravitz, Tony Revolori, A$AP Rocky, Blake Anderson, Keith Stanfield, and Kiersey Clemons.

People are asking me about this film the same way they did Dear White People last year, but can Dope be a breakout hit in the same way? Stay on the look out for my review of Dope! [EW]

Sean Penn gets Hunted in New Trailer for 'The Gunman'

Is Sean Penn on the verge of a Liam Neeson-style renaissance as an action star? It could happen if audiences turn out to watch him beat up bad guys in The Gunman, a genre flick directed by Pierre Morel, the guy behind the first Taken. Coincidence?

A new international trailer for The Gunman suggests it could be a bit more high-minded than the Taken movies are, although it still gives Penn plenty of butts to kick. Based on the popular book series, the film centers on ex-Special Forces soldier Martin Terrier (Penn) now working as a military contractor who suddenly comes under attack from his own people. What follows is an international game of cat and mouse that will see Penn squaring off with co-stars Idris Elba, Javier Bardem, and Ray Winstone. Given the success of American Sniper it's not surprising the trailer begins with Penn's character, who suffers from PTSD, taking out a foe from long range.

The Gunman takes aim at theaters on March 20th 2015.

Surreal Trailer for Sundance Sci-Fi Drama 'H.'

The Sundance NEXT lineup is generally where one can find some of the most challenging independent films of the entire festival, and last year we saw a number of them become mainstream successes: Obvious Child and A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night to name just a couple. So it's always a category worth paying attention to in hopes of finding another gem, and this year that could be the sci-fi drama, H.

Directed by Rania Attieh and Daniel Garcia, the first trailer for H. gives the impression of a Shane Carruth-style sci-fi drama in the vein of Upstream Color. Here's the synopsis:

In Troy, New York, two women, both named Helen, carry on seemingly complacent existences with their respective partners. Middle-aged Helen lives with husband Roy and finds comfort from a “reborn” baby doll. Meanwhile, successful young artist Helen is expecting a child with her noncommittal partner. Foreboding signs begin to appear: a meteor reportedly crashes nearby; people go missing; and inexplicable, life-altering changes spiral the Helens’ inert realities into a terrifying journey through unknown terrain.

Attieh and Garcia are already making a name for themselves based on the film, having won the Indie Spirits' Someone To Watch Award. Starring Robin Bartlett, Rebecca Dayan, Will Janowitz, Julian Gamble, and Roger Robinson, H. will make its world premiere in Park City on January 25th.

Kodi Smit-McPhee Escapes a Troubled Life in Trailer for 'All the Wilderness'

Kodi Smit-McPhee seems to bounce from one coming-of-age movie after another, he just has the perfect look for it, but he's getting some special attention for All the Wilderness. Debuting at SXSW last year, the directorial debut by Michael Johnson has McPhee as a troubled young man unable to cope with the loss of father. His mother (Virginia Madsen) can't figure out what's going on, and his shrink (Danny Devito) isn't helping much, but he finds a chance at a better life after encountering a group of isolated kids just like him.

With a release date pegged for February 20th, the first trailer for All the Wilderness has arrived. From a visual standpoint it looks incredible, almost like a music video, but it remains to be seen if there's more to set the film apart in a crowded genre. The film co-stars Isabelle Fuhrman and Evan Ross, both having spent time as part of The Hunger Games franchise.

The Dynamic Duo Face the Court of Owls in the 'Batman vs. Robin' Trailer

Marvel may hold a firm grip on live-action superhero films but nobody compares to DC in the realm of animation. Each year they can be counted on to produce multiple DC Universe movies, most of which turn out pretty good, and their latest Batman vs Robin looks like it could be another winner.

Based in part on the Court of Owls storyline, but strangely without any mention of Nightwing who was a central part of it, Batman vs. Robin pits the dynamic duo against a secret cabal turning children into assassins. Directed by Jay Oliva (The Dark Knight Returns, storyboard artist on Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice), the film features the returning voices of Jason O'Mara as Batman, Sean Maher as Robin, and David McCallum as Alfred. Longtime fan-favorite Kevin Conroy voices Thomas Wayne, "Weird" Al Yankovic voices the Dollmaker in an awesome bit of casting, and Jeremy Sisto voices Talon.

Batman vs. Robin is a follow-up to Justice League: Throne of Atlantis which is part of the DC shared animated universe that began with Justice League: War. Don't think for a second the Batman vs. Robin title is a coincidence when Batman v Superman is also on the way.

Trailer for Omnibus 'The Turning' with Cate Blanchett, Rose Byrne, Hugo Weaving, and More

Omnibus films have always had a hard time finding an audience, no matter the amount of big names that may be attached. Case in point the Australian anthology film The Turning, which features performances by Cate Blanchett, Rose Byrne, Rose Byrne, Hugo Weaving, and Miranda Otto, along with segments directed by David Wenham, Mia Wasikowska, and Justin Kurzel. Completed in 2013, it still hasn't secured a U.S. date but has a new trailer ahead of its U.K. release.

Based on the short stories of Tim Winton, The Turning tells ten interweaving stories largely centered on the troubled Lang family. Here's the official synopsis:

Ten stories interweave in their respective narratives, creating an intriguing and twisting central plot-line that often centres around the enigmatic members of the Lang family, each consumed by their shared pasts.

The Turning explores the impact of past on present, how the seemingly random incidents that change and shape us can never be escaped or let go of. All of the stories are bound together by recurring themes; the passing of time, regret, addiction and obsession.

A 90-minute broadcast version aired in Australia early last year, but the cut headed to theaters elsewhere would presumably run the full 180 minutes. The Turning opens in the UK on February 6th.

New Trailer for Animated Foosball Film 'Underdogs' with Nicholas Hoult and Ariana Grande

The animated foosball film Metegol has been kicking around for awhile, but it finally released in Argentina last year and became the highest-grossing Argentinian movie ever, which is good because it was also the most expensive. While the prospects for it here in America remain something of a mystery, it has been retitled Underdogs and given superstar voice cast that you can hear in the new English-language trailer.

Oscar-winning director Juan Jose Campanella (The Secret In Their Eyes) brings to America the story of Jake, a shy and talented foosball player who must defend his town and the girl he loves from his evil rival, Ace. To do it he'll need to join forces with the toy figures from his favorite foosball table, who have magically come to life. The film features the voices of Matthew Morrisson, Ariana Grande, Bella Thorne, Nicholas Hoult, Katie Holmes, and John Lequizamo.

Underdogs hits theaters on April 10th.

Will Ferrell and Kevin Hart Get Hard in New Trailer (Wait, what?)

Two things I want to get out of the way first. 

1. Sorry for the title....I couldn't resist 

2. If you're looking for a poster or still from this movie, don't Google image search 'Get Hard' without adding 'Movie' to the end of the search, learn from my mistakes people. 

Get Hard feels like the transitioning of the old to new guard of comedy giants in Hollywood. I don't say passing the torch because I don't think Ferrell's quite done yet but certainly Kevin Hart has taken that #1 spot that used to be firmly planted in the pocket of Will Ferrell. Honestly, having the two in the same movie feels like it should collapse the universe with the amount of hilarity it will bring. Visually opposite in every way Ferrell and Hart couldn't be more similar in what they bring to roles, I don't just mean that they're both funny, it's that they both can do the same bit in everything they do and it just doesn't seem to get old. That's what this trailer for Get Hard shows us. You have Hart being the ultimate non-badass little man and Ferrell every bit the middle America goofball, and it works. In a plot setup that's been overly done in the C to D list over the last year (see: Big Stan and Let's Go to Prison) Ferrell and Hart prove the difference between themselves and the likes of Rob Schneider and Dax Shepard as leading funny men. The movie's plot seems pretty simple, sheltered white guy gets sentenced to prison and, thanks to typical rich white guy stereotyping, goes to his black friend to find out how to not become someone's girlfriend. Every second of this trailer goes to the most obvious place you can think of but still I'm sitting here cracking up. Check it out for yourself and tell me you're not laughing as well. 

Get Hard hits theaters March 27th, 2015

Anne Hathaway Finds Love and Music in Trailer for 'Song One'

The redemptive power of a good song is a theme we saw explored last summer in John Carney's underrated musical Begin Again, which just received an Oscar nomination for Best Original Song. That idea is due to get explored again later this month in the Anne Hathaway film, Song One, which also explores how music can not just heal the soul, but the body as well.

Hathaway stars alongsid Johnny Flynn in the story of a lonely Brooklyn woman who falls in love with her comatose brother's favorite musician. For all of writer/director Kate Barker-Froyland's good intentions I found the film incredibly bland, largely due to the lack of chemistry between Hathaway and Flynn. Still, this kind of movie has an audience and they'll likely turn out for it, just don't expect to hear much singing from Hathaway.

Also starring Mary Steenburgen and Ben Rosenfield with original songs by Jenny Lewis, Song One opens January 23rd.

New Trailer for Shakespeare Thriller 'Anarchy' formerly 'Cymbaline'

I guess producers of the film Anarchy figured audiences wouldn't latch on to the previous title, Cymbeline, even though it's based on the pretty well-known Shakespeare play. Apparently that's not enough, although a boring title like Anarchy probably isn't going to help much. In any case, it takes the Bard's work and throws in a bunch of badass biker gangs, so maybe some folks will think it's an episode of Sons of Anarchy?

Directed by Michael Almereyda and starring Ethan Hawke, Milla Jojovich, Anton Yelchin, Ed Harris, Penn Badgley, Dakota Johnson, and more, the film depicts an epic struggle between dirty cops and a biker gang in a corrupt version of America.

Anarchy hits VOD and theaters on March 13th.

New UK Trailer for "Chappie" starring Dev Patel, Hugh Jackman, & Sigourney Weaver

Here we have a new UK trailer for Chappie. It's a bit different than the new released trailer in theaters here. It seems that Blomkamp is still exploring the themes of downtrodden vs. the majority. Chappie has all the things I like. It feels like Robocop mixed with Short Circuit.

Chappie directed by Neill Blomkamp and stars Dev Patel, Hugh Jackman, Sigourney Weaver, and Sharlto Copley as the voice of Chappie.




Look at the new trailer below.

New Trailer for 'Clouds of Sils Maria' Starring Juliette Binoche and Kristen Stewart

If you're looking for a reason why Kristen Stewart just got a "Razzie Redeemer" award nomination this morning rather than your typical Razzie dishonor, look no further than Clouds of Sils Maria. She stars opposite Juliette Binoche in the All About Eve-esque drama directed by Olivier Assayas, and the two share nearly every scene together. Stewart gives as good as she gets, and you can see a little bit of that in the new U.S. trailer for it.

Binoche plays a world renowned actress who is asked by an old friend to star in a revival of the play that made her famous two decades earlier. Only now she has to take on the much older older, with the character she played going to a young and self-involved actress played by Chloe Grace Moretz. This leads Binoche's character to explore her own career, getting older, and more while Stewart, who plays her assistant and best friend, deals with the fallout. Beautifully shot but oddly edited, it's a film that I still enjoyed last year for being a complex and often humorous look at the celebrity culture.

Clouds of Sils Maria opens April 10th.

Trailer for 'The Walking Dead' Midseason Return is All About Surviving Together

"Surviving together is all that matters". To be honest, I'm still a bit shaken up by the death that capped off the first half of The Walking Dead's fifth season, and am hardly prepared to see anybody else I like die. But it's inevitable, and in this new trailer for the show's return next month we see Rick, Carol, Michonne, and the rest of the crew armed up and sticking together for another major fight.

But who will that fight be against? One of my issues with the series is that it seems to be running low on creative bad guys for them to face. The Governor was one thing, but that whole Terminus plot was a giant waste of time, and don't even get me started on the stuff at the hospital. Alas, there is still hope in the return of Morgan (Lennie James) who could be an interesting fly in the group's ointment.

Just don't kill Carol. 

The Walking Dead returns to AMC on February 8th at 9pm.

Skype gets Deadly in Trailer for Horror 'Unfriended'

It doesn't matter how far technology evolves, Hollywood will find a way to turn it into a horror movie. We've already seen how the Internet can be used for everything from stalking to "catfishing" to bullying, and now in the new film Unfriended we're learning that even Skype can be made into something nefarious.

A twist on the found-footage horror, but not totally unlike the recent thriller Open Windows, Unfriended takes place totally over a computer screen in real time. It begins when a video of a high schooler named Lara is uploaded to the Internet, showing her drunk, passed out, and possibly sexually assaulted. Soon after she's captured on tape committing suicide, but months later a group of friends in a Skype group call are terrorized by a user who knows way too much about everything.

It's a pretty clever setup from director Levan Gabriadze but the trick will be keeping the stylistic touches interesting for the duration. Given the idea was hatched by Timur Bekmambetov (Wanted) and is produced by Jason Blum (Paranormal Activity), there's every reason to think Unfriended could be a sleeper hit when it boots up on April 17th.

Melissa McCarthy Gets Some Action in the First Trailers for 'Spy'

No matter how you slice it, audiences love Melissa McCarthy. What's more, they love her when paired up with director Paul Feig who she worked with on the hit comedies Bridesmaids and The Heat. While we wait to find out of they'll get together again for Ghostbusters, the duo have another potential smash on their hands with Spy (formerly Susan Cooper), an espionage comedy that we now have green and redband trailers for.

McCarthy stars as Susan Cooper, a former schoolteacher who becomes a lowly analyst for the CIA who is forced into the field when another agent becomes compromised. This looks pretty funny, especially Jude Law as the secret agent whose allergies fouled up the prior mission. Beyond the spy stuff it looks like trademark McCarthy, and with a cast that includes Rose Byrne, Jason Statham, Bobby Cannavale, Miranda Hart, and 50 Cent she's going to have a lot of help.

Spy hits theaters on May 22nd.
