Pop star Britney Spears shares her vision of earth’s impending apocalypse in her new music video entitled “Till the World Ends.” From the looks of it, Armageddon will see cities crumble to the ground as gay guys with faux-hawk hairdos rave in the streets.
According to Spears manager, the 29-year-old singer’s upcoming Femme Fatale shows will feature a post-apocalyptic theme. The tour is slated to start June 17 in Sacramento and will run for 26 dates through North America.
Matrix star Carrie-Anne Moss and genre icon Malcolm McDowell have been cast as Claudia and Leonard Wolf in producers Samuel Hadida and Don Carmody (Resident Evil: Afterlife) upcoming sequel Silent Hill: Revelation 3-D.
Fans of the Silent Hill video games will recognize the Claudia Wolf character from the series’ third installment. Leonard Wolf is her abusive cult-leader father. Sadly, I never got far enough along the game to figure out their deal (I do, however, kick ass at Q-bert).
Silent Hill: Revelation 3-D is directed by Michael J. Basset and stars Adelaide Clemens (Vampire) and Kit Harington (”Game of Thrones”) and original Silent Hill stars Radha Mitchell, Deborah Kara Unger, and Sean Bean. The film is currently shooting in Toronto.
Malaysian stunner Natassia Malthe headlines writer/director Matthew Schilling’s feature film debut Avarice. The sci-fi mystery thriller costars Kevin Sorbo (Sorority Party Massacre), Tinsel Korey (Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn), Brad Dourif (Priest), Ray Park (“Heroes”), Jason London (51) and Patricia Richardson (“Home Improvement”).
Peep the trailer:
The synopsis reads:
A mysterious box from space lands in the desert; it holds the power to grant anyone’s desires, but at a deadly cost. When a group of strangers are brought together by their most desperate desires, they will unwittingly release the evil darkness lurking inside.
Malthe’s genre creds include BloodRayne 3: The Third Reich, Alone in the Dark 2, the werewolf thriller Skinwalkers, superhero flick Electra (she shared a kiss with Jennifer Garner), Halloween: Resurrection, the David E. Kelly penned creature-feature Lake Placid, and the most stroke-worthy video game-based actioner ever DOA: Dead or Alive.
Australian actress Amber Clayton is set to star in writer/director Justin Dix’s sci-fi actioner Crawlspace. The film is produced by Wolf Creek director Greg McLean.
The synopsis reads:
The film follows a squad of elite soldiers sent to infiltrate and extract the lead science team from Pine Gap, Australia’s top secret underground military compound, after it comes under attack from unknown forces.
The mission is compromised when they encounter a young woman with no memory of who she is or how she came to be there. As they try to escape, the group quickly discovers all is not as it seems and the facility has become a testing ground for something far more sinister.
Clayton is perhaps best known in the States for her portrayal of Dr. Lisa Reed on the short-lived CBS medical drama “Three Rivers.”
Crawlspace is currently being shot at Docklands studios in Melbourne, Australia.
Warner Bros. treated WonderCon and CinemaCon attendees this week to four minutes of footage from its upcoming Green Lantern release. If you couldn’t borrow mom’s car to get down to the shows, there’s no need to get your Underoos in a bunch. The footage has hit the web.
Looks like Lily Collins is the fairest of them all for Relativity Media’s re-imagining of the Brothers Grimm classic fairy tale Snow White. Collins, daughter to pop singer Phil Collins, has landed the titular role and will star alongside the obnoxious Julia Roberts and The Social Network’s Armie Hammer, who play the Evil Queen and the Prince.
Collins, best known for last year’s embarrassing Sandra Bullock vehicle The Blind Side, can soon be seen in Sony Screen Gems post-apocalyptic-vampire-frightener Priest. The 22-year-old up-and-comer will also play the lead in the studio’s adaptation of author Cassandra Clare’s romantic teen-demon-slayer book series The Mortal Instruments.
Directed by Tarsem Singh (The Immortals), Snow White goes into production in May and aims to be in theaters on June 29, 2012.
The poster seen above showcasing actress Freida Pinto as Phaedra the oracle priestess is one of seven released by Relativity Media to promote their upcoming Clash of the Titans inspired swords-and-sandals epic The Immortals.
Directed by Tarsem Singh, The Immortals tells the story of Theseus (Henry Cavill), a mortal man chosen by Zeus (Luke Evans) to take down King Hyperion (Mickey Rourke) and his bloodthirsty army before they find a deadly weapon that could destroy all of humanity.
Filling out the cast are Twilight’sKellan Lutz as Poseidon, Stephen Dorf as master thief Stavros, Daniel Sharman as Ares and Isabel Lucas as the Goddess Athena. The film is set to be in theaters on Nov. 11.
Pop singer Katy Perry stars as a top-heavy alien creature out to have a close encounter with a robot in her new music video “E.T.” If you’ve read or heard Perry speak about her strictly religious and conservative upbringing, you’ll know by video’s end—when the robot reveals itself—that the whole thing is just a metaphor for having sex with a black guy.
Pictured above is British actress Gemma Arterton in Braunschweig, Germany on the set of Dead Snow director Tommy Wirkola’s Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters, a flash forward of the classic fairy tale that finds the siblings hunting down supernatural forces for profit.
Arterton’s Gretel costume appears to have a hint of Underworld appeal, but I can’t give it the Clatto stamp-of-approval without seeing the backside. That will make or break this movie. I’d also like to see what villains Famke Janssen and Ingrid Bolso Berdal’s outfits look like.
Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters rolls camera on March 7. It’s expected to be in theaters in June 2012.
