In a recent interview with
Entertainment Weekly, actor Henry Cavill was asked if his
Superman would act differently in the upcoming
Batman v Superman:
Dawn of Justice as opposed to his Superman from Man of Steel. The actor’s response, in reference to Man of Steel and the controversial ending was not a simple one, saying:
“
Let’s say now, [if] Superman has the same threat again, that’s a different story. He would, of course, bring collateral damage to an absolute minimum, but in that, he’s just trying to survive because if he doesn’t, the planet’s gone. That’s the excuse I make for Superman. He’s fresh and he’s new, and it’s very easy to
point out the faults in someone after they’ve done it, but put yourself in their shoes and see what happens.”
When asked about his relationship with Batman in the movie, Cavill added:
‘That’s his weakness, that he doesn’t want to hurt anyone. He doesn’t want to scare anyone, and in that you can take advantage of him. It makes it very easy to take advantage of him… This is someone who is a complete amateur, and he’s facing up against someone who is very well versed in the arts of war.”
During a conference call yesterday
Disney head honcho
Bob Iger talked a bit about the plans for the Young Han Solo movie, revealing that it will actually be an origin story about the scruffy nerfherder and an origin story about his walking carpet companion, Chewbacca. In addition to confirming Chewbacca’s appearance, Iger assured the Disney investors that the
Star Wars Story films outside of the main saga would be marketed “differently, but aggressively.” The as yet untitled Han Solo movie is written by
Lawrence Kasdan with his son,
Jon Kasdan and directed by
Christopher Miller and
Phil Lord. The film is scheduled to be released on May 25, 2018.

Back in
2010, Sacha Baron Cohen was attached to play
Queen front-man Freddie Mercury in a biopic based on his life and the life of the band. In an interview on the
Howard Stern Show to promote
The Brothers Grimsby,
Sasha Baron Cohen explained why he decided to leave the project, claiming that a member of Queen wanted
Freddie Mecury to die in the middle of the movie so they could focus on how the band carried on with the remaining members.
Baron Cohen explained that, no one would want to see a movie where the lead character dies from
AIDS in the middle of the film.
A24 has released the first trailer for The Adderall Diaries, a dramatic thriller starring James Franco as author
Stephen Elliot, whose fascination with a high-profile murder case leads him to his own troubled past. The movie is the feature debut for writer-director
Pamela Romanowsky, and stars
Franco,
Amber Heard,
Christian Slater,
Cynthia Nixon,
Jim Parrack and
Wilmer Valderrama. The movie debuts in theatres on

A new,
Australian international trailer for
Paul Feig’s rebooted Ghostbusters has been released. The movie, which stars
Melissa McCarthy,
Kristen Wiig,
Kate McKinnon, and
Leslie Jones also features
Chris Hemsworth, who was barely seen in the first trailer. This new look gives us a few alternative jokes and significantly more Chris Hemsworth. Ghostbusters will drop in theatres this July 15th.
