  • Second Trailer for Martin Scorsese's Shutter Island

    Shutter IslandOriginally scheduled to have opened this past weekend, Martin Scorsese's gothic thriller Shutter Island has been delayed until February 19, 2010. Instead, the studio is offering us another trailer with new glimpses of the mysteries and horrors lurking inside this Alcatraz-like asylum for the criminally insane.

    Leonardo DiCaprio and Mark Ruffalo play 1950's federal marshals sent to investigate the disappearance of an inmate who, the chief physician (Ben Kingsley) informs them, appears to have "evaporated, right through the walls." Once they arrive, they find themselves treated almost like patients themselves and nothing is as it seems. The nightmarish, apparently drug-induced, visions don't appear to be helping their investigation much either. Check it out below.

  • New Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Images

    Having failed to make a big push for its latest (potential) franchise at San Diego Comic-Con, Walt Disney is trying to create some buzz for Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time by releasing new stills from the movie.

    Two of the stills feature ripped-up Jake Gyllenhaal and smoking-hot Gemma Arterton in action as Prince Dastan and Princess Tamina, respectively, while the other shot shows producer Jerry Bruckheimer behind the scenes on the set.

    Based on Ubisoft's popular line of video games, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time is set in sixth century Persia and tells the story of how Prince Dastan and Princess Tamina must work together to stop the evil Nizam (played by Sir Ben Kingsley) from using the mysterious "Sands of Time" to destroy the world.

    Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time is being directed by Mike Newell and also stars Toby Kebbell, Alfred Molina, Reece Ritchie, Richard Coyle and Steve Toussaint.

    Only days ago, the first official still of Jake Gyllenhaal in action from Disney's upcoming movie Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time was released.

    Now Disney has treated us to the first image of Sir Ben Kingsley as the antagonist Nizam, a wealthy nobleman who desires the "Sands of Time," a power capable of destroying the world.

    Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time is produced by Jerry Bruckheimer and directed by Mike Newell. The film also stars Toby Kebbell, Alfred Molina, Reece Ritchie, Richard Coyle and Steve Toussaint.

  • Al Pacino May Star in Barry Levinson's HBO Biopic About Dr. Kevorkian

    Al PacinoAfter years of mediocre, sometimes dreadful roles, it's nice to see Al Pacino again interested in something that offers some kind of dramatic promise. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Pacino is in talks to portray Dr. Jack Kevorkian in You Don't Know Jack, the upcoming HBO biopic from director Barry Levinson (Rain Man, Good Morning Vietnam, The Natural).

    Dr. Kevorkian gained notoriety in the '90s for supporting physician-assisted suicide and claiming personal responsibility for more than 150 deaths. He was eventually convicted of second-degree murder and spent eight years in prison before being released on parole in June 2007. The film will reportedly cover events leading to Kevorkian's first assisted suicide and the media blitz that resulted from his legal battles in defense of a patient's right to die.

    Levinson is also executive producing the project, which once had Ben Kingsley in the role of Kevorkian. Screenwriter Adam Mazer (Breach) adapted the script from Neal Nicol's book Between the Dying and the Dead: Dr. Jack Kevorkian's Life and the Battle to Legalize Euthanasia.

  • Leonard Maltin's Online Hidden Gem

    Leonard Maltin's Online Hidden Gem

    Sexy Beast

    Leonard Maltin Says:

    On a recent episode of Secret's Out, I recommended the new theatrical release The Wackness, a highly original movie starring Josh Peck and, in an uncharacteristic role, Ben Kingsley. But then, there's almost no kind of part Kingsley can't and won't do. For example, he's an enforcer with a ferocious presence in the crackling crime drama from 2001, Sexy Beast. In the film, Ray Winstone plays a crook who's made good and now lives an easy life in Spain with his beautiful wife. But Ian McShane wants him to come back to England to pull one last job, and he sends Kingsley to make him say yes. One encounter with this man and you'd say yes to anything. Sexy Beast is a smart, funny, potent, often violent gangster film, and if you haven't seen it, I encourage you to seek it out on DVD.

  • Sir Ben Kingsley on Shutter Island

    Sir Ben KingsleyWe recently had the privilege of chatting with the lovely Sir Ben Kingsley, who is headlining the Sundance sweetheart, The Wackness, opening this Thursday. In it, he plays Dr. Squires, a rather troubled therapist who has an unusual relationship with a patient, with whom he trades is psychiatric services for pot.

    Kingsley is just finishing up shooting another part in which he plays a shrink, in Martin Scorsese's Shutter Island. "I play another psychiatrist, but very different from Dr. Squires. Very sober, very against the use of drugs in therapy, and also very against the use of surgical intervention in therapy," says Kingsley.

    He does have a patient to whom he's completely dedicated who is going through an extremely dangerous time -- the great Leonardo DiCaprio," he reveals. "He and I have some very, very strong scenes together."
