Posted on September 20, 2011 by | Leave a comment

It’s not just Twilight star Taylor Lautner who has a lot riding on this week’s PG-13 action thriller Abduction , in which the erstwhile Jacob Black plays a suave teenager who turns spy-on-the-run after discovering his life has been a lie. Director John Singleton has something to prove with his first directorial effort since Four Brothers , even if he exudes nothing but confidence while discussing the high-octane action pic.

Steven Spielberg Doesn’t Want Lincoln Biopic to Become ‘Political Fodder’

Posted on September 20, 2011 by | Leave a comment

While discussing the presidential biopic that he is gearing up to shoot in Richmond this fall, Steven Spielberg described what he does not want Lincoln to be. The 2012 title will “not [be] a battlefield movie. There are battles in it, and being in Virginia, we have access to those historic battlefields.” Additionally, “the movie will be purposely coming out after next year’s election. I didn’t want it to become political fodder.” On the other hand, Lincoln will chronicle “the great work Abraham Lincoln did in the last months of his life.” The drama stars Daniel Day-Lewis as the 16th president of the United States alongside Sally Field, Tommy Lee Jones, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and John Hawkes.

Don’t Look Now, But Johnny English Reborn Might Be Your Fall Movie Phenom

Posted on September 19, 2011 by | Leave a comment

I’m nothing if not fair, so: Congratulations to Universal, which 17 months ago displayed what looked at first like a desperate lack of imagination but has since been proven to be a bit of box-office alchemy. Indeed, its comedy Johnny English Reborn — the sequel to Rowan Atkinson’s hit 2003 spy spoof Johnny English — debuted overseas last weekend to the biggest opening of Atkinson’s career. It’s a hit! In Russia!

Posted on September 19, 2011 by | Leave a comment

The slimmed-down co-star of (and, if there’s any justice to be found in the awards cosmos, eventual Oscar nominee for) Moneyball climbed the mound in Oakland on Sunday to throw out the first pitch prior to the A’s-Tigers game. And the crowd… goes… wild! Seriously, these guys really dig Hill; see for yourself in the video after the jump, and stick around for more in today’s Buzz Break.

Olivia Munn on I Don’t Know How She Does It, Her Feminist Critics, and Trying to Do it All

Posted on September 19, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Olivia Munn first became known for keeping geeks everywhere enthralled on a daily basis as the co-host of G4′ s Attack of the Show , but since leaving the program to pursue acting she’s hit the ground running by joining The Daily Show , starring in the short-lived sitcom Perfect Couples , and snagging roles in upcoming projects from the likes of Aaron Sorkin and Steven Soderbergh. Speaking with Munn over the weekend about her latest film, I Don’t Know How She Does It , Movieline was determined not to ask the pun-tastic question of how, in fact, she does it. What we discovered instead was the story of how, in the course of following her Hollywood dreams, she tried to do it all.

Posted on September 19, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Variety’s Showblitz reports that youngster Liam Hemsworth , who gets his biggest break since dating Miley Cyrus in next year’s The Hunger Games , has been cast in the sprawling ensemble of The Expendables 2 . Wait, you say — isn’t he, like, four or five decades too young for this film? At 21, Hemsworth is quite a bit less wrinkly than his co-stars. Let’s start guessing now who he’ll play: Sly’s son? A flashback version of Jean-Claude Van Damme? Mickey Rourke’s bicep? [ Variety ]

Talkback: Which Emmy Nominee Deserves a Bigger Movie Career?

Posted on September 18, 2011 by | Leave a comment

I can’t conceive of a Movieline reader who doesn’t care about award shows, so I suspect I’m in a safe space when I say I can’t wait for tonight’s Emmys. Out of every primetime ceremony (including the Oscars, Golden Globes, Grammys, VMA s, and the little-seen CMT Drunken Hayseed Awards), the Emmys pick the right winners most often. Yes, Modern Family deserved to beat Glee . Yes, Bryan Cranston deserved three straight wins. But there’s one area in which Emmy nominees deserve more justice: in the jump from the small to the silver screen. If you could pick one Emmy nominee who deserves a bigger movie career, who would it be?
