Posted above is a photo of teen actress Camren Bicondova as Selina Kyle/Catwoman on the set of Fox TV’s “Gotham,” an origins series chronicling Jim Gordon’s rise from rookie detective to Police Commissioner of the notoriously corrupt city.
“Gotham” also introduces tween Bruce Wayne, the orphaned child of murdered billionaires Thomas and Martha Wayne, and teenaged super villains to-be, including The Penguin and Catwoman. Think “Smallville.”
“Gotham” stars Ben McKenzie as Jim Gordon, Erin Richards as his wife Barbara Kean, Donal Logue as his veteran partner Harvey Bullock, David Mazouz as Bruce Wayne, Sean Pertwee as Alfred, Jada Pinkett-Smith as Fish Mooney, Robin Lord Taylor as The Penguin, and Zabryna Guevara as Police Captain Sarah Essen.
Fashion model Dylan Penn makes her acting debut in clothing designer-turned-filmmaker Eli Morgan Gesner’s (Concrete Jungle) Condemned. Described by producers to be in the vein of Evil Dead, Scorsese’s After Hours and the French cannibal comedy Delicatessen, the frightener shoots next month in New York.
Penn will play the youngest in a group of disgusting squatters whose irresponsible shitting habits cause a viral outbreak among the residents living in a condemned building on Manhattan’s Lower East Side, sending them into a murderous rage.
Penn is the 22-year-old daughter of grumpy actor Sean Penn (Shanghai Surprise) and his hot ex-wife Robin Wright (Forrest Gump). Some of you may have masturbated to seen her in layouts for GQ, Elle, and The Gap.
Phase 4 Films has set a May 6 DVD release date for its based-on-true-events slasher Blood Shed, starring Bai Ling (Crank: High Voltage), glamor model-turned-actress Vida Guerra, and Vida Guerra’s tush (pictured). The film is directed by people named Patrick Hasson and Juan Carlos Saizarbitoria.
Blood Shed finds a homeless loner taking up residence among degenerate squatters in a self-storage facility in the city. Things get bloody when a psycho mom starts to slaughter them while searching for her missing child.
Image Entertainment has set an April 15 DVD and digital download release date for Camp Dread, a new slasher from writer and director Harrison Smith (6 Degrees of Hell), starring Sleepaway Camp star Felissa Rose (pictured above).
Rose plays the star of a beloved ’80s horror trilogy brought back for a “reality-based” reboot of the series set to be shot at the campgrounds where the original splatter flicks were filmed. Shit hits the fan when Rose’s co-stars start biting the dust.
Camp Dread also stars scream queen Danielle Harris (Halloween, Hatchet) as a small town’s sheriff and Eric “I’ll take the role” Roberts (Sharktopus, Expendables) as the filmmaker desperate to restart his stalled career at any cost.

Godzilla costars Elizabeth Olsen (Oldboy), Aaron Taylor-Johnson (Kick-Ass), Juliette Binoche (English Patient) and, representing Tokyo, Ken Watanabe (Inception). The film is directed by Gareth Edwards (Monsters) and written by Max Borenstein (Seventh Son) and Dave Callaham (The Expendables 3).
Twentieth Century Fox has released the first trailer for director Wes Ball’s adaptation of James Dashner’s young adult novel “The Maze Runner.” Set in a dystopian future, the story follows a group of teenage boys stuck in the Glade, a mysterious space where they must survive a shifting maze.
While a flick about a bunch of young dudes and one girl isn’t really Clatto’s bag (unless we’re talking Bukkake), The Maze Runner continues the new tradition of making the young, privileged and good-looking suffer in the future. We like that.
M’s Entertainment and Dear Fear have released an international trailer for Spanish filmmaker Marc Carreté’s new exorcism thriller Asmodexia, starring Lluís Marco and Clàudia Pons as a grandfather and granddaughter team of exorcists out to save weak souls afflicted by “The Evil One.”
Those most susceptible to possession by evil are children, filthy drug addicts, and psychos. Spanish stunner Irene Montalà (pictured) costars in the film as a patient in a mental hospital whose soul is being consumed inside out by demonic forces with extremely good taste.
Lionsgate Home Entertainment has set an April 15 release date for Lifetime’s adaptation of V.C. Andrews bestselling, fun-for-the-whole-family novel “Flowers in the Attic.” Heather Graham (pictured) stars as the widow who allows her heartless mother to entrap her children in an attic in a plot to inherit family fortune.
Kiernan Shipka (“Mad Men”) and Mason Dye (“Secret Diary of an American Cheerleader”) play the children, who must take care of their younger twin siblings, survive their grandmother’s (Ellen Burstyn) sadistic abuse and a murder attempt at the hands of their mother, while falling in love with each other.
Lake Placid alumna Roxanne Pallett is set to costar in Wrong Turn 6, the newest sequel in the hugely successful hillbilly horror series from 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment. Directed by a dude named Valeri Milev and written by another guy named Frank H. Woodward, the slasher is shooting in Bulgaria.
Pallett made her Hollywood movie debut in 2010’s killer croc sequel Lake Placid 3, and starred in last year’s zombie thriller Devil’s Tower opposite Jason Mewes (Clerks). The British babe costars in Wrong Turn 6 with stunners Sadie Kats (House of Bad) and Aqueela Zoll (Killjoy Goes to Hell).
The first Wrong Turn debuted in theaters in 2003 with Eliza Dushku (“Dollhouse”) toplining as its sole survivor. The film failed to find its way at the box office, but found an audience on DVD, spawning four successful home video sequels.

San Andres stars Johnson as a special-ops firefighter on a trek from Los Angeles to San Francisco to find his estranged daughter in the wake of a deadly earthquake. Daddario, last seen playing a naked home-wrecker on HBO’s “True Detective, is Johnson’s daughter. Gugino will play Johnson’s hot wife.
Gugino is coming off TNT’s small-screen adaptation of Lisa Gardner’s bestselling crime-thriller Hide. She’s starred in the Zack Snyder films Sucker Punch and Watchmen, David S. Goyer’s The Unborn, and Robert Rodriguez’s Sin City. Gugino will next be seen in M. Night Shyamalan’s new Fox limited series “Wayward Pines.”
