Two top-tier action stars have been added to the upcoming Kickboxer remake, with word that Tony Jaa (pictured above, Ong Bak, Fast & Furious 7) and Scott Adkins (The Expendables 2, The Bourne Ultimatum) are in negotiations for two key supporting roles. Both stars have gained a rabid following in the martial arts community over the years.
Eddie Redmayne and Felicity Jones have both proven themselves actors of remarkable talent - he in biopic My Week with Marilyn and musical Les Miserables, and she in romance Like Crazy. This fall, both will tackle their most challenging dramatic tasks to date, portraying Stephen Hawking and his first love Jane in The Theory of Everything. Charting the famed astrophysicist's college years and his diagnosis of motor neurone disease, the biopic is one of our most anticipated films of the fall.
Archer, FX's vulgar and totally awesome spy spoof, has long been one of the funniest shows on television, and it took hilarity to new heights last season by removing its lead characters from their Cold War-esque spy office and turning them into international drug smugglers. Archer Vice, as it was titled, found Pam turning into a ravenous Cocaine Monster, Cheryl utilizing a mind-control trip to become a country singer named Cherlene and Krieger meeting his Nazi clone brothers, among other incredible developments. Some dynamics were changed for good - Lana now has a baby, named A.J., who will become a major part of the show in season 6.

When the Wachowskis' space epic Jupiter Ascending was taken off the summer calendar and slotted for next February, we had a feeling that the shift might mess up Warner Bros.' previously laid plans for early 2015. Now, the studio has officially announced what it's changing - the Liam Neeson actioner Run All Night has been moved from February 6th (when Jupiter will now open) to April 17th next year.
Marlon Wayans keeps finding work, so some people must like what he's been doing on the big screen lately. Sadly, Wayans' horror spoof sequel A Haunted House 2 didn't do much for our critic Matt Donato, who handed it one and a half stars and remarked of the movie, "Redundant, cheap, and overplayed – the word 'effort' doesn’t even come to mind."
If HBO's The Leftovers is too grim and depressing for you, but you still need to get your apocalyptic fix, look no further than Left Behind, which essentially utilizes that show's same premise but adds in one key ingredient: Nicolas Cage. I know what they say - fool me once, shame on you, and all that - but the dramatic first trailer for this flick, which appears already destined for the bargain bin, is surprisingly solid.
More than year after getting green-lit for a pilot, MTV's take on the meta-horror classic Scream is finally moving forward with a director and cast set for its first episode.
