‘Se7en’ Writer and Director Reunite For ‘Peter Proud’

9 November 2009 10:53 AM, PST | ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news »

Back in 1995, director David Fincher and screenwriter Andrew Kevin Walker (The Wolfman) collaborated on what is now touted as a “crime classic” and “a blueprint for modern serial killer movies.” That movie was Se7en, and I totally agree with all the praise that’s been heaped upon it (it recently featured in our “Horror Plus” series).

Now, 14 years later, Fincher and Walker are going to be collaborating once more, this time on an adaptation of the novel The Reincarnation of Peter Proud for Columbia. THR’s Heat Vision Blog reports the news of their involvement, along with producer Michael De Luca (Blade, Ghost Rider). The author of the book, Max Ehrlich, adapted it into a movie in 1975 of the same name, so I guess in a way this movie is a remake by Fincher (there’s that “remake or new adaptation” question again). According to THR:

'New Moon's' Kristen Stewart admits she's at peace with superstardom

9 November 2009 10:50 AM, PST | Hitfix | See recent Hitfix news »

If anyone seems to have taken being under the "Twilight" microscope the hardest it's Kristen Stewart.  The teenage actress who'd first come to moviegoers attention in David Fincher's "Panic Room" had been on something of an indie movie tear before being cast as the iconic Bella in Catherine Hardwicke's big screen adaptation of "Twilight."  From the cast's first Comic-Con appearance to the surprise blockbuster's premiere Stewart seemed overwhelmed by all the media attention and intense fan frenzy.  And considering that she'd been around the business for as long as she had it was a bit surprising.  Well get ready, because that's... »

'Yeah, it's in my armpit because I'm hiding it from everyone,' he jokes.

Beverly Hills, California — Rob and Kristen are engaged. They're going to name their first child a combination of their mothers' names, just like in the "Twilight" books. A big wedding is on the way, quite likely with Bigfoot officiating.

As their fame has grown, so has the insanity level of the rumors about their personal lives. On Friday (November 6), "New Moon" star Robert Pattinson sat down with MTV News, and was eager to address one of the more notable bits of news he saw the last time he Googled himself.

"I like the story about me being pregnant," laughed the 23-year-old British heartthrob. "It was in some Australian magazine, on the front page!"

As they've filmed "New Moon" and "Eclipse," Rob and Kristen Stewart have spent the last »

Angelina Jolie Is Not Kristen Stewart's Model For Success... So Who Is?

4 November 2009 7:30 AM, PST | MTV Movies Blog | See recent MTV Movies Blog news »

From Hollywood Crush: So apparently "Twilight" star Kristen Stewart doesn't want to be like a certain Oscar-winning Un ambassador who has given birth to Brad Pitt's children. "I don't want to be a movie star like Angelina Jolie," KStew told the British magazine Fabulous.

If you ask me, Angelina has a pretty darn impressive personal and professional resume — one nearly any human being on earth would kill to possess — but, hey, who am I to question Kristen's dreams and nightmares? I've admired her gritty acting talents since 2002's "Panic Room," and with "New Moon" coming up in a matter of weeks, her career is only on the rise. But if she doesn't want to model her career after Angie, who should she aspire to be? And, almost as important, whose Hollywood fate should she do everything she can to avoid?

Kristen Stewart: 'I Don't Want to Be Like Angelina Jolie'

1 November 2009 8:47 PM, PST | Aceshowbiz | See recent Aceshowbiz news »

Kristen Stewart just can't stop complaining about her fame, which as she has said for several times intrudes her private life. "I don't want to be a movie star like Angelina Jolie", she tells Fabulous. "Nothing about being a celebrity is desirable. I'm an actor. It's bizarre to me that everybody's so obsessive."

The depicter of Bella Swan in "Twilight" goes on comparing the vampire film's leading character Edward Cullen, which is played by Robert Pattinson, to the concept of celebrity. "Edward is actually a really good parallel to fame. As a vampire he has a sad, desolate life - fame is the same," she explains.

Claiming her fame after starring in 2002 flick "Panic Room", Kristen Stewart becomes more famous after her film "Twilight" was released last year. It was since that time she receives more media attention and always followed by a throng of paparazzi wherever she goes.

tMF Talkback: Who is overrated Megan Fox or Kristen Stewart?

One tMF viewer, who is apparently a Megan Fox fan, once said 'Megan Fox is overrated as a celebrity but not as an actress.' That comment made me think: Is there really such a difference? Can't we judge someone who is a celebrity and an actress, and treat her as one and the same? She's just one person right?

Megan Fox may be overrated as a "celebrity," but she is actually underrated, As An Actress.

50 Influential Scream Queens: Part 2

27 October 2009 10:57 PM, PDT | Fangoria | See recent Fangoria news »

Before I launch into the conclusion of my 50 Influential Scream Queens (read part 1 here), please let me remind you that this list is based upon my personal taste, and my personal taste alone. I didn't poll 100 Fango readers, the Fango staff or any other form of 'industry professionals'. It's all opinion, so if you feel I've wronged a certain actress by excluding them from the list, don't leap to brand the entire Fango crew 'vile'.  I probably just don't personally find their work to be that influential. Either that or I'm just ignorant to their accomplishments!

25. Mia Farrow: Mia's genre work may be a bit limited, but that doesn't change the fact that Rosemary's Baby will forever be regarded as one of the creepiest films in history. Farrow's portrayal of Rosemary Woodhouse is harrowing to say the least, and will always remain (in my mind) one of the best performances the genre has seen. »

Exclusive Interview: Adam Goldberg is Candid About '(Untitled)' Movie

21 October 2009 9:15 PM, PDT | CinemaSpy | See recent CinemaSpy news »

Fans of HBO’s Entourage know Adam Goldberg as Nick Rubenstein, the spoiled coke-addicted son of a famous movie producer who agrees to fund Medellin, Vince's ill-fated dream project. To others, he is Julie Delpy’s lover in the romantic drama 2 Days in Paris, or the "stereotypically Jewish" guy in films like Dazed and Confused and The Hebrew Hammer.  Over the last decade or so, Goldberg has worked with a slew of top-drawer directors including Steven Spielberg (Saving Private Ryan) Tony Scott (Déjà vu), David Fincher (Zodiac), Richard Linklater (Waking Life) and Ron Howard (A Beautiful Mind), predominantly in supporting roles. He is also an accomplished musician and filmmaker.  

Now, in the satirical spoof on New York’s Chelsea art scene (Untitled), Goldberg steps into the lead role as Adrian Jacobs, a brooding and sullen composer of esoteric discordant musical works that feature — among other sounds produced by ready-made everyday »

Kristen Stewart Bites

11 October 2009 2:32 PM, PDT | Cinematical | See recent Cinematical news »

Her boyfriend bites necks, so why shouldn't she have a nibble too? Kristen Stewart first came to mainstream attention with her role as Jodie Foster's daughter in David Fincher's Panic Room in 2002, though she had a nice, small part in Rose Troche's The Safety of Objects and really hit a home run with Jessica Sharzer's superb, underseen Speak in 2004. But it wasn't until she landed the coveted role of Bella Swan in Twilight that everyone started paying attention.

Maybe a little too much attention, as evidenced by the video posted after the jump (courtesy of College Humor). In the video, Stewart's proclivity for biting her own lower lip has been highlighted. And the conclusion is ... she does it a lot, at least in Twilight and Adventureland, which seem to be the two movies that the clips have been drawn from. To be honest, it's a little »

For starters, Interview Magazine isn't the only publication to be showcasing Stewart's beauty on the cover.

Gregg Araki Gets Sexy Again

6 October 2009 1:15 PM, PDT | Cinematical | See recent Cinematical news »

Bring on the Araki! After getting busy with candy-coated 3-ways in Splendor, Gregg Araki concocted a little yin and yang. First came the gritty drama of Mysterious Skin, which revealed a range we didn't know existed. Then came the exact opposite -- the ridiculous Anna Faris-starring stoner comedy Smiley Face. But now the cult director is heading back to the green sprouts of sexual exploration.

The Hollywood Reporter posts that Araki is shooting his latest feature, Kaboom, and he's tapped Roxane Mesquida (Fat Girl), Thomas Dekker (Sarah Connor Chronicles), Kelly Lynch (Charlie's Angels), and Rooney Mara (Youth in Revolt) to star. Not much is being revealed at this time, but here's what I could find online. As THR notes, Kaboom will focus on "the sexual awakening of a group of college students." Araki started the feature last month, Helen STELLaR is performing in a scene, and Ann Magnuson (Panic Room »

3 October 2009 9:12 AM, PDT | TheImproper.com | See recent TheImproper.com news »

"Twilight" sensation Kristen Stewart is feeling consumed by her role as Bella Swan opposite Robert Pattinson’s Edward Cullen, and longs for the day when the sensational vampire series, and all the attention it’s generating, is behind her. The sad thing is that I feel so boring because “Twilight” is literally how every conversation I have these days." she tells Interview magazine. Stewart, the product of a Hollywood upbringing, scored her break out role in David Fincher’s 2002 thriller, “Panic Room,” playing opposite Jodie Foster. But her performance in Sean Penn's 2007 movie “Into the Wild” made her a standout and led to her casting in “Twilight.” »

Kristen Stewart Gets Bored With 'Twilight'

1 October 2009 7:57 PM, PDT | Aceshowbiz | See recent Aceshowbiz news »

Getting her big break starring in "Panic Room" at age 9 and becoming even more famous after starring in "Twilight", Kristen Stewart opens up about how the 2008 vampire drama film bored her because whenever she meets someone new, all they want to talk about is her role in the film and its upcoming sequels. "The sad thing is that I feel so boring because Twilight is literally how every conversation I have these days begins - whether it's someone I'm meeting for the first time or someone I just haven't seen in a while," she tells legendary actor Dennis Hopper who interviews her for Interview Magazine.

"The first thing I want to say to them is, 'It's insane! And, as a person, I can't do anything!' But then I think to myself, 'God damn it, shut the f*** up'," she adds. Kristen, furthermore, reveals it is the same attention that »
