Underworld: Awakening is the fourth film in the franchise, after that sub-par prequel we got in '09. Kate Beckinsale returns as Selene, who escapes from imprisonment and enters a world where humans know that Vampires and Lycans exist and are planning to take them all out. Expect much of the same slo-mo, blood-spilling action from the first three films, only this time in 3D. The film hit theatres January 20, 2012.
Nicolas Winding Refn's Drive is still on my Fall must-see list, ever since the first clip was released. A few weeks ago, I put up the first poster for the film and in yesterday's Trailerpalooza, I put up a nice little mash-up trailer between that and Star Wars. And now, here's a new international trailer released this week. There's some more footage involved and not that it should bother you, but just a little spoiler. Ignore the French subtitles and enjoy. After its premiere at TIFF, FilmDistrict will release the film a week later on September 16th.
You've heard that Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid were killed in a standoff with the Bolivian military back in 1908. That all changes in Blackthorn. Sam Shepard plays Cassidy, who, alongside the Sundance Kid, survived the legendary standoff and is hiding in a small Bolivian town under the name James Blackthorn. Butch wants to see his family one last time, but while on his journey back home, an ambitious young criminal (Eduardo Noriega) stops his plans and Butch is back into one last adventure. Magnolia Pictures will release the western On Demand September 2nd and in theatres October 7th.
A trailer for Fireflies in the Garden was released online this week. The film focuses on the Taylor family, who seem like the perfect picture of an American family. But when a serious car accident kills the mother, the family is forced to confront the history and relationships as they come to light. The film has an ensemble cast that includes Ryan Reynolds, Willem Dafoe, Julia Roberts, Carrie-Anne Moss, Hayden Panettiere and Emily Watson. The funny thing about the film is that it was filmed back in 2008 and it's finally heading to theatres after all this time. Despite the stars it has, it won't really matter to audiences. That's something that Take Me Home Tonight, which was completed back in 2007 and had a couple of name changes, faced earlier this year. The film hits select markets October 14th.
Finally, we have the new international trailer for Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy and it looks awesome. Based on the novel by John le Carre, the thriller stars Gary Oldman as an intelligence expert veteran who comes out of retirement to catch a Soviet mole hiding within Britain's M16. Directed by Tomas Alfredson (Let the Right One In) and also starring Tom Hardy, Colin Firth, Mark Strong, Ciaran Hinds, Toby Jones, Kathy Burke and John Hurt, the film hits UK theatres September 16th and North American theatres November 18th.
