Poster for Greengrass, Damon Film Green Zone
4 November 2009 6:39 PM, PST | newsinfilm.com | See recent newsinfilm news »
Empire Magazine has the first poster for the Iraq War thriller Green Zone starring Matt Damon and directed by Paul Greengrass. The two worked together on The Bourne Supremacy and The Bourne Ultimatum, which might explain why the poster and trailer look like a continuation of that series rather than a fast-paced political flick.
If this one sheet looks like a simple, washed out picture of Damon, that’s because it is. But wait a minute, you’re missing the cringe-worthy tag line. “Chief Warrant Officer Roy Miller Is Done Following Orders.” There, that ought to bring people in droves.

First Poster for Paul Greengrass’ Green Zone Starring Matt Damon
4 November 2009 10:33 AM, PST | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
I’ve already made my feelings about “Green Zone” abundantly clear and it’s going to be difficult for me to put aside what I think the film should’ve been and trying to appreciate what director Paul Greengrass actually made. The funny thing is that if I had no idea what the book was about, I would be pretty excited for what look like the 4th Jason Bourne movie since “Supremacy” and “Ultimatum”, which Greengrass directed, are both fantastic films.
Still, when I look at the film’s first poster, it’s hard for me to choke down a tagline like “Chief Warrant Officer Roy Miller Is Done Following Orders”. Thankfully, the film doesn’t come out until March 12th, 2010 so I still have some time to adjust. Check out the poster and a brief synopsis after the jump.

New Green Zone Images
30 October 2009 5:27 AM, PDT | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »
Here’s a couple of new images from Matt Damon’s Green Zone. If you didn’t catch our news about it a couple of days ago, both the Domestic and International trailers were released 12 hours apart from one another which caught us all by surprise as they were completely different in their content. We have them both on HeyUGuys for your viewing pleasure – click the links above to view. The international trailer gives you a much better idea of the story but they’re both worth a watch.
In the meantime, we have these new images (click them below to enlarge) from the movie which is set to blow your socks off March 12th. As well as Damon, Green Zone stars Greg Kinnear, Amy Ryan, Brendan Gleeson, Jason Isaacs, Khalid Abdalla.

International Green Zone Trailer is Radically Different
28 October 2009 11:48 AM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
Yesterday we posted the domestic trailer for director Paul Greengrass’ (”The Bourne Supremacy”, “The Bourne Ultimatum”, “United 93″) “Green Zone”. While the movie is about a rogue U.S. Army officer (Matt Damon) in Iraq, for a moment I thought I was watching the trailer for the next Bourne movie. That’s not a bad thing, it’s just the way Universal was selling the film in the trailer. But over in the United Kingdom, Universal has released a Much different trailer as it uses other footage to tell the story. Trust me, watch both trailers. You’ll be amazed at how different they are. Both are after the jump:
Here’s the synopsis:
On March 12, 2010, Matt Damon and director Paul Greengrass re-team for the electrifying thriller “Green Zone”. In the film, Damon stars as Chief Warrant Officer Roy Miller, a rogue U.S. Army officer who must hunt through »

New Trailers: 'Green Zone' and 'Smokin' Aces 2'
27 October 2009 4:50 PM, PDT | Fandango | See recent Fandango news »
Green Zone [watch the trailer] It's not exactly Bourne 4, but if you watched this trailer without knowing the name of the film, you may indeed question whether or not this was some secret Bourne sequel that no one told you about. Instead, though, it's called Green Zone – and it looks very Bourne-esque because the film reunites Matt Damon (who played Jason Bourne) with director Paul Greengrass (who directed The Bourne Supremacy and The Bourne Ultimatum). So, yeah, you'll see a lot of that familiar Matt Damon ass-kickery set to some quick, shaky camera cuts, however this flick is completely different from that series. In Green Zone, Damon stars as a rogue Army officer who's searching for Weapons of Mass Destruction during the Iraq war. Usually moviegoers...

Trailer for Paul Greengrass’ Green Zone Starring Matt Damon
27 October 2009 10:28 AM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
To say that I’m disappointed by the trailer for Paul Greengrass’ upcoming film, “Green Zone”, would be an understatement. What you’re essentially getting is a 4th Jason Bourne movie. And yes, the direction looks amazing and I’m sure Matt Damon, Amy Ryan, and Greg Kinnear will all do a good job. But I’ve seen this movie twice already from Greengrass. By choosing this direction, he’s missed a golden opportunity to do something fresh and different because the source material, Rajiv Chandrasekaran’s “Imperial Life in the Emerald City”, is not an action-packed thriller. It’s in the vein of “Catch-22″ and made all the more absurd by the fact that it’s all true. Maybe it’s because I attached my expectations to this film but I’m feeling a bit deflated since it looks like all we’re getting is a thrilling action movie. »

Exclusive: Michelle Monaghan Talks ‘Trucker’
16 October 2009 3:51 PM, PDT | FilmSchoolRejects.com | See recent FilmSchoolRejects news »
To the uninformed, Michelle Monaghan might be little more than a recognizable face. Yet, the actress has had a strong start to her career, having appeared in several of the most successful recent movies. That’s her in The Bourne Supremacy, Mission: Impossible III, Mr. and Mrs. Smith and Eagle Eye. Nothing she’s done to this point, to resurrect the age old cliché, will prepare you for her work in Trucker. A small, subtle character study set against the vast expanse of the American West and written and directed by James Mottern, it’s the story of a tough trucker named Diane (Monaghan) who finds her independence and isolation compromised when she’s reacquainted with the son (Jimmy Bennett) she abandoned as an infant. Film School Rejects spoke to Monaghan about the deeply personal project, which premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival in 2008 and is now in limited release. What »

Universal Releases Synopses for Green Zone, MacGruber, Untitled Robin Hood Adventure, Get Him To The Greek, Your Highness
12 October 2009 6:20 PM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
Universal Studios has released synopses for some of their major 2010 films and the two that are especially worth reading are “MacGruber” and Ridley Scott’s “Untitled Robin Hood Adventure”. While it might surprise you to hear this, a few people have told me “MacGruber” is going to shock everyone next year as it’s a super-violent, hard-r movie. Also, I’ve heard there are many lines that we’re all going to quote. Did I mention Val Kilmer plays the villain and his name is Dieter Von Cunth? I know, I know–I am just as shocked to report SNL’s “MacGruber” might be a great movie.
As for Ridley Scott’s “Untitled Robin Hood Adventure”, this synopsis is the first real story details I’m hearing about the plot. Since I haven’t watched every version of “Robin Hood”, I’ll let the synopses do the talking, but I »

Review: Trucker
10 October 2009 7:02 AM, PDT | Cinematical | See recent Cinematical news »
By Erik Davis, reprinted from the Tribeca Film Festival 4/26/08
I was completely honest with actress Michelle Monaghan yesterday when I told her, right at the beginning of a one-on-one interview, that I'd been waiting a long time to watch her come alive in a role. In her relatively short career, Monaghan has already racked up quite the resume -- appearing in films like Mission Impossible III, Gone Baby Gone, The Bourne Supremacy, The Heartbreak Kid and Made of Honor. She's got a great, girl-next-door quality about her, but is she memorable? The good news here is that Monaghan finally delivered the sort of performance I've known was trapped somewhere inside her, hidden behind a variety of big, flashy Hollywood films. Make no mistake, this is her film. She owns it. But is that enough to convince you to see it?
In Trucker, she plays Diane, a female truck driver with »

Soderbergh Hopes More Realistic Spy Thriller will be 'Knockout'
9 October 2009 10:30 AM, PDT | CinemaSpy | See recent CinemaSpy news »
Steven Soderbergh wants to bring a sense of realism back to the action/spy genre, starting with the casting of mixed martial artist Gina Carano as his leading lady in his upcoming film, Knockout.
In Knockout, Carano will play a woman with incomparable hand-to-hand fighting skills, who gets hired by the government and subsequently involved in a globe-trotting plotline. Although the project may sound similar to James Bond or Jason Bourne’s exploits, there will be more logic involved, especially with regards to high-speed pursuit, Soderbergh told MTV.
"Very, very few people escape high-speed pursuit," he said. "It happens, but it's very rare. So I’ve already researched the six times in history it's happened, so if we do that and she gets out of it, she’s going to get out of it one of the ways they did. It's that kind of thing. It drives me nuts when »
Damon Writes About Clean Water Woes
8 October 2009 6:36 PM, PDT | WENN | See recent WENN news »
Matt Damon has poured his heart out about his travels to the poorest parts of the world in a new essay for U.S. magazine Parade.
The actor turned journalist to pen a travelogue for the free publication, which will hit the streets in many national publications this weekend (10-11Oct09).
In his essay, The Bourne Supremacy star admits he was inspired to give to charity as a child, and would save up his allowance and hand it over to causes he felt passionate about.
He writes, "My mother was involved in all sorts of causes and when I was about 12, I started sending a little bit every month to one of them. I learned then that you find something that matters to you and it changes your whole mindset."
And his passion for giving led him to his latest cause - finding clean water for the Third World's kids.
Damon admits he has been deeply moved by the efforts of volunteers and aid workers in Africa as they fight to save children, like his own, from dying.
He adds, "Every 15 seconds, a child dies because of a lack of clean water and sanitation... A billion people on our planet will never have a clean drink of water."
He also recalls meeting those struggling to survive in Haiti, Africa and India, and confesses he struggles to comprehend how some areas of the world are so poor while Americans take water and sanitation for granted.
Damon explains, "You can read about extreme poverty and possible solutions, but it's really powerful when you get to meet the people and shake their hands and listen to their stories.
"I was in Ethiopia earlier this year, and I watched children taking filthy water out of a hand-dug well and putting it in bottles to take to school. The water was so dirty, it looked like chocolate milk.
"I wanted to knock it out of their hands and say, 'Don't drink that - it could kill you.' The dilemma is that drinking nothing at all will kill them faster."
Damon's essay in Parade launches the publication's America's Giving Challenge, which aims to increase charity donations for international causes. »
Damon Unveils Haiti Water Initiative
23 September 2009 12:06 PM, PDT | WENN | See recent WENN news »
Matt Damon is using his star status to help provide clean water to thousands of people living in poverty-stricken Haiti.
The Bourne Supremacy star created non-profit company Water.org earlier this year when he merged his H2O Africa charity with WaterPartners International.
Water.org has previously succeeded in providing access to clean water for people living in developing countries in Africa and South Asia - and now Damon is turning his attentions to Haiti.
The actor joined world leaders, including U.S. President Barack Obama and former leader Bill Clinton, at the launch of the 2009 Clinton Global Initiative in New York on Tuesday to announce his new mission.
The project, nicknamed the Haiti Challenge, aims to provide clean water and sanitation facilities to 50,000 Haitians.
Damon explained, "Water.org will deliver at least $2 million to fund this commitment."
He also urged the leading politicians gathered at the meeting to donate to the organisation to ensure the Safe Water and Sanitation For the People of Haiti initiative is a success.
Damon added, "We want to challenge everyone here in this room tonight to support this commitment to the people of Haiti by visiting Water.org." »
Matt Damon Talks Bourne 4
11 September 2009 10:02 PM, PDT | ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news »
Since 2007’s Bourne Ultimatum, fans of super spy Jason Bourne have been waiting patiently for the next installment of the critically acclaimed franchise. Unfortunately, for months, all we’ve gotten out of director Paul Greengrass and star Matt Damon is that the movie is “being worked on” and that they “have a story, but not a script.” Luckily, thanks to Steve Weintraub over at Collider, we have a little bit more information on the film that indicates the possibility of the movie moving along sooner than you think.
At a press conference for Damon’s new film, The Informant, Weintraub asked the Academy Award-winner about the project. I’ve excerpted some of Damon’s answers below. For the full interview, head over to Collider.
On the likelihood of filming Bourne 4:

Matt Damon Talks Bourne 4, Hasn’t Read Script(s)
11 September 2009 1:04 PM, PDT | Slash Film | See recent Slash Film news »
There's been a lot of talk about the projected fourth Jason Bourne movie, and Matt Damon and Paul Greengrass still seem to be heavily considering it as a possible project. But some of the talk is getting into bizarre territory, like the report that Universal is developing parallel scripts. But according to Damon, he hasn't yet read either script, and we can infer from comments made today that Greengrass hasn't either. Speaking to Damon at the press conference for The Informant! (a fun, rather touching movie) in Toronto, Collider got Damon on the record about the current state of Bourne. When asked if he's read the new drafts: Not yet. Paul finished cutting “The Green Zone” except for some effects. It’s coming out in March. He hasn’t had a break literally since he did “The Bourne Supremacy” - which is six years ago now. So he was like »

Damon Chastises Journalists For Laziness In Death Report
11 September 2009 12:11 PM, PDT | WENN | See recent WENN news »
Movie star Matt Damon used his Toronto Film Festival press conference to blast journalists for spreading a "silly" story suggesting he had died.
The Bourne Supremacy star was appalled by reports suggesting he had plunged to his death during a mountain hike in California on Thursday - and even more stunned when reputable news groups called his publicist for a comment.
Damon fears journalists failed to read the Internet story properly - because if they had they would have realised it was a prank.
And he took issue with the media at the start of his Toronto Film Festival rounds in Canada, where he's promoting new movie The Informant.
He raged, "My publicist got all of these phone calls from very reputable sources. I got forwarded the story, which, if you read it, it just gets sillier and sillier, and, by the end, the guy who's said to be my agent is quoting the lyrics to the Fresh Prince Of Bel Air.
"And yet CNN called and The Boston Globe called, all of these reputable news sources are checking if it's true.
"My publicist's like, 'Did you even read the story?' Misinformation is quicker because you motherf**kers (journalists) are lazy! That's how these things spread like wildfire." »
Matt Damon Dishes on a Fourth Jason Bourne Film
11 September 2009 5:42 AM, PDT | MovieWeb | See recent MovieWeb news »
While not much has been said about a fourth film centering on Matt Damon's Jason Bourne character, it seems that it is still in the works. Collider recently spoke with Damon, at a press conference for his new film The Informant!, and he revealed that he will be meeting with director Paul Greengrass about the fourth film, currently known only as Untitled Jason Bourne Project, in the next few weeks.
Collider: Everyone always asks about the Bourne franchise and you've been giving the same answer that it's all about the story - which by the way, all the fans of the franchise are loving that answer - but all of us are wondering how likely is it that you guys are going to do another film?
Matt: Look, it's a question I get a lot from people on the street and I was talking to Paul (Greengrass) and he »
Taylor Lautner Inspired by Matt Damon, Brad Pitt, and Denzel Washington
9 September 2009 1:07 AM, PDT | Celebrity Mania | See recent Celebrity Mania news »
"Twilight" actor Taylor Lautner reveals that he has celebrity crushes on some famous Hollywood stars. Asked who become his inspiration for developing his acting career, the 17-year-old heartthrob simply replies, "Denzel Washington, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon."
Later, Lautner admits that he really admires Damon's appearances on thriller movie "The Bourne Identity" and its sequels, "The Bourne Supremacy" and "The Bourne Ultimatum". "I love the Bourne series and I wouldn't mind doing something like that," he says of the trilogy films.
Taylor Lautner can next be seen reprising his werewolf character Jacob Black on "The Twilight Saga's New Moon". Though he is currently having a group of female fans which is called Team Jacob, Lautner tries to be humble saying that the fans actually love Jacob more than himself. "I think the fans would love anybody who played Jacob," the young actor claims. »

Caution! This Movie May Cause Motion Sickness!

Photo: The Film Experience [poll id = "62"] The picture above came from a posting at The Film Experience and while Nathaniel makes fun of the use of the definitive article before 'hand held shooting style', I started thinking more about the use of hand-held camerawork in films nowadays and the complaining that comes as a result. As someone that doesn't have much of a problem with what has now been dubbed "shaky cam," it is easy for me to hear these complaints and dismiss them as ramblings, but I know that's not the case as evidenced by Roger Ebert's collection of letters to the editor. People actually do get nauseous and the complaints don't begin and end in comment sections on movie blogs. Only two days ago Caitlin Petrakovitz at io9 posted an article headlined "Stop Shaking My Movies Like A Polaroid Picture" taking a look at what she deemed to be the good, »

Karl Urban Is A Bloodsucking Bastard
21 August 2009 12:14 AM, PDT | EmpireOnline | See recent EmpireOnline news »
Karl Urban, legend, has been cast as the villain in Priest, Scott Stewart’s vampire Western follow-up to his eagerly anticipated apocalyptic thriller, Legion.Like Legion, Priest will star Paul Bettany, as a warrior priest living in a world dominated by bloodsucking fiends, who teams up with Cam Gigandet’s sheriff and Maggie Q’s priestess to find his niece, after she’s kidnapped by Urban’s band of vampires.Urban’s character, a former priest turned vampire and general nutjob, is called Black Hat, after the grand old Western tradition that the good guys wear white hats, the bad guys black. We can’t decide whether that’s wonderfully knowing, or horribly on-the-nose, but we’ll give Stewart the benefit of the doubt, based entirely on that six minutes of Legion footage that did the rounds at Comic-Con.Although his most famous roles, Eomer in (two-thirds of) the Lotr »
