Orphan and House of Wax director Jaume Collet-Serra helms The Shallows, slated to release in summer. Below is the first trailer for the film and it reveals why we’re sold hook, line, and sinker: Blake Lively. Tiny bikini. Big fucking shark.

This Is a Rebellion Isn’t It: ‘Rogue One’ Trailer Strikes!

felicity jones rogue one

Disney has released a trailer for its first standalone Star Wars feature Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. The eagerly anticipated film is directed by Gareth Edwards (Godzilla) and written by Chris Weitz (Cinderella) with Oscar nominee Felicity Jones (Theory of Everything) toplining as rabble-rouser Jyn Erso.

Rogue One tells the story of the Rebellion team tasked with stealing the plans to the Empire’s Death Star battle station, leading to its destruction in the 1977 original Star Wars: A New Hope. The trailer introduces us to Jyn Erso, an orphaned outlaw eager to work her issues out by kicking stormtrooper ass.

She’s an engaging new character to watch. There’s a whole lot in this trailer to be excited about but, of course, the sight of the old stormtroopers and Imperial Walkers wreaking havoc to a familiar Star Wars score gets one’s Jedi robes in a bunch.

Dimension Films has set a June 17 limited theatrical release date for producer Eli Roth’s Clown, a creepy frightener from director Jon Watts about a father (Andy Powers) consumed by the clown costume he wears at his young son’s birthday party when the hired talent doesn’t show.

Watts and producing/writing partner Christopher D. Ford (Robot And Frank) first shot Clown as a faux trailer for a fake Eli Roth movie. The short caught Roth’s attention and the duo were immediately welcomed into Hollywood with teenaged hookers, mountains of crystal meth, and truckloads of cash.

Disney Whips Up New Indiana Jones Film for 2019, Ford & Spielberg Return!

indy-harrison-ford

Disney has set a July 19, 2019 theatrical release date for a fifth Indiana Jones film. Steven Spielberg is at the helm once again with Harrison Ford reprising his role as the iconic archaeologist and adventurer. Producers Kathleen Kennedy, now Lucasfilm President, and Frank Marshall also return.

Walt Disney Studios Chairman Alan Horn said:

Indiana Jones is one of the greatest heroes in cinematic history, and we can’t wait to bring him back to the screen in 2019. It’s rare to have such a perfect combination of director, producers, actor and role, and we couldn’t be more excited to embark on this adventure with Harrison and Steven.

The Indiana Jones franchise got the boulder rolling with 1981’s Raiders of the Lost Ark, spawning three blockbuster sequels and raking in more than $2 billion globally. A fifth entry is not only exciting, but odds are it will be awesome being that the original Raiders and its third chapter, The Last Crusade, are outstanding, while second and fourth installments, Temple of Doom and Crystal Skull, weren’t.

Choose Violence: ‘Game of Thrones’ Season 6 Trailer!

game-of-thrones

HBO has released a trailer for season six of its Emmy award-winning fantasy series “Game of Thrones,” premiering April 24. The trailer garnered 30 million views in less than 24 hours, breaking the network’s previous best of 27 million for the season five premiere.

The show, which hit its highest ratings last season with more than 20 million viewers an episode when including streaming, reruns, and DVR, ended with the much debated death of Jon Snow. The trailer reveals Jon is indeed dead, but still gives hope with a glimpse of the Red Woman, Melisandre of Asshai.

Of course, there’s lots more teased in the trailer – enough to eat all ten of your fingernails to the quick, maybe even those of your toes. Of particular interest for Clatto is Cersei Lannister promise of violence after surviving her shameful ordeal at the hands of the High Sparrow… oh, and look, is that a reanimated Mountain at Cersei’s command? Oh, yeah.
