“Guardians of the Galaxy 3” To Start Filming Next Year

Earlier this year it was announced James Gunn would return and direct “Guardians of the Galaxy 3” now reports say the film will finally resume production and begin filming next year. According to The Hollywood ReporterBlack Widow and The Eternals will begin shooting this year with Shang-Chi slated to follow.

“Guardians of the Galaxy 3” will start shooting next year in 2020. Gunn will start filming “The Suicide Squad” in Fall 2019, meaning Guardians may go into pre-production at the same time. That said, the movie may get pushed back so his schedule isn’t so demanding since DC Comics’ soft reboot is slated to release August 6, 2021. The five Guardians are expected to return for the movie, including Gamora. There are no reports on whether Thor will be included in the film, given the allusion that he will join the team and reform it as the “Asgardians of the Galaxy.”

This news comes after the production of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3  was reportedly put on hold last September 2018. Marvel dismissed crew members for the sequel and producers stopped preproduction for “regrouping.”

The Hollywood Reporter reported the project was scheduled for preproduction fall 2018 but production stopped following the firing of director James Gunn, who had made controversial social media posts from 2008 to 2012.

Keanu Reeves Reveals How He Ended Up in “Movie Jail”

Keanu Reeves reveals how turning down a movie role landed him in “movie jail” for over a decade

Keanu Reeves was an A-list actor in the 1990s thanks to his hit movie “Bill & Ted” movies and roles in Kathryn Bigelow’s “Point Break,” but it was Jan de Bont’s 1994 action thriller “Speed” that turned the actor into an international superstar. The film was a hit at the box office making $350 million worldwide on a $30 million production budget and won multiple Oscars. The film’s success made it an easy decision for 20th Century Fox to develop a sequel, although Reeves believed it would be difficult for a movie to be that successful a second time around.

Keanu Reeves on “Movie Jail”

In a new interview with GQ MagazineReeves said his decision to turn down “Speed 2: Cruise Control” led him to placed put into “movie jail” by 20th Century Fox. During that point in time, Reeves surprised many in the industry by following up the blockbuster hit movie with working at a regional theater playing the lead role in Shakespeare’s “Hamlet”.

The choice to work on a smaller production booted him from being 20th Century Fox’s leading action star and Reeves said he remained in Fox movie jail for over a decade. “I didn’t work with [Fox] again until ‘The Day the Earth Stood Still’ [in 2008],” Reeves said.

You would assume the hit movie “The Matrix” was enough to get him back on Fox’s good graces, but it was not. When the actor finally did return to the studio with Scott Derrickson-directed “Day The Earth Stood Still” remake, Reeves’ was no longer as popular as he once was as the movie made only $233 million worldwide, which was a major let down for the studio.  Reeves’ next movie, “47 Ronin,” was a box office flop in 2013 and is currently the last movie for the actor at the studio. Since then, Reeves has worked on indie productions including “The Neon Demon” and Lionsgate franchise “John Wick.”

“He’s got this beautiful, tragic conundrum—these two selves,” Reeves told GQ about the reason he keeps coming back to Wick. “The John who was married, and John Wick, the assassin. John wants to be free. But the only way he knows how is through John Wick. And John Wick keeps fucking killing people and breaking rules. We’re really watching a person fight for their life and their soul.”

“John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum” hits theaters nationwide May 17th. Reeves told GQ he’ll keep making these films “as far as the audience wants to go.”

“Empire” Renewed for Season 6 with “No Plans” To Bring Jussie Smollet Back

0

Jussie Smollett is expected not to return to “Empire” as Fox renewed for a sixth season.

“Empire” is returning to Fox in the fall, but one of its most famous cast members will not be reprising their roles for the new season. In an announcement on Tuesday, Fox revealed the renewal for another season but the cast member who has been in the middle of controversy this year is not returning to the show.

A statement from Fox Entertainment and 21st Century FOX read, “By mutual agreement, the studio has negotiated an extension to Jussie Smollett’s option for season six, but at this time there are no plans for the character of Jamal to return to ‘Empire.’”

Paired with the Season 6 renewal news, Fox Entertainment president Michael Thorn saluted the show’s creative team without bringing up Smollett by name. “We want to thank everyone on the show – Taraji, Terrence, and the entire cast, as well as Lee, Danny, Brett, Sanaa, Brian, Francie, Dennis, and their teams – all of whom have done a tremendous job this season,” Thorn said.

Jussie Smollett Charges

This news comes after Smollett will not be tried on new charges from an alleged staged hate crime attack on January 29th. Following new evidence that surfaced contradicting Smollett’s initial claims that two strangers attacked him, the actor was eventually taken into custody by Chicago police officers on February 21st. Charges against Smollett were ultimately dropped in late March, well after the event had become a national political controversy.

Jussie Smollett Attorneys

Smollett’s attorneys maintained his innocence. “This entire situation is a reminder that there should never be an attempt to prove a case in the court of public opinion. That is wrong,” a statement read. Earlier this month, the city of Chicago filed a lawsuit against Smollett to recoup the $130,000 spent on the initial investigation into Smollett’s assertions.

Jussie Smollett on Empire

Meanwhile, on the hit “Empire” series, last week’s episode saw the marriage of Smollett’s character Jamal to his boyfriend Kai, who is played by Toby Onwemere, a ceremony that let Kai telling those gathered he is HIV positive. Season 5 of “Empire” will come to an end on Wednesday night with the season finale called “The Roughest Day.”

‘Avengers: Endgame’s Ending is Great News for Aspiring Actors

Following the ending of “Avengers: Endgame,” the Marvel Cinematic Universe is expected to be a lot more diverse.

Marvel Studios plans to introduce several new superheroes in an expanding array of genders, ethnicities, ages, and sexual orientations.

Victoria Alonso, the studio’s executive vice-president of production, told Vulture, that the history of white male superheroes like Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, and Spider-Man is not reflective of an inclusive culture, and it is a sound business model to include more diversity.

“The lesson with Captain Marvel and Black Panther, where the combined efforts of those two movies are $2.4 billion, is if you don’t do it, you’re leaving money on the table,” said Alonso. “This is show business — there’s a business part to the show. Don’t leave money on the table. Just commit to it.”

Beyond additional capital, Alonso said an increasingly diverse group of heroes, villains, and supporting actors are a top priority for the studio’s future films. “We’re just determined to have it be how we do it,” she says. “And if we do it, maybe somebody else will do it … I encourage every studio, every indie production company, every filmmaker out there to make an effort.”

Marvel has already started working on more diverse and inclusive projects including, Scarlett Johansson’s “Black Widow” and “Shang-Chi” an Asian martial-arts master.

Sarah Halley Finn, casting director who has cast every Marvel film, with 2008’s “Iron Man”, expects a large number of new faces in the Marvel Cinematic Universe: “You’re gonna see even more new faces — and faces from all different background, all ages, all ethnicities, LGBTQ, differently abled people,” she says.

Marvel has been working with the Casting Society of America, which has been holding open calls for underrepresented actors, including transgender, those with disabilities and Middle Eastern, North African, South American actors.

“It’s a priority to have authenticity, to increase representation, to give greater representation to actors who have not traditionally been represented in mainstream movies on the big screen,” says Finn.

Disney is now hiring actors for their new, highly anticipated land “Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge”, which is set to open this summer at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

According to the casting call breakdown, Disney is looking for actors at “Savi’s Workshop” located in the “Black Spire Outpost,” an apparel shop which Disney says provides “functional clothing suitable for a variety of occasions and worlds.” 

The group of “Gatherers” operate within the workshop, which is packed with ancient relics they’ve collected throughout the galaxy, and they are experts in helping people design and build lightsabers, Disney describes in its job description. “In this exclusive experience, guests will feel like a Jedi as they build these elegant weapons from a more civilized age,” Disney says.

The “Gatherers” are slightly quirky and mysterious, Disney says, and personable and humorous, so actors should have “good comedic and improvisational instincts.” 

The casting call is at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Rehearsal Facility on Tuesday, May 21, at 4 p.m. 

Disney asks that actors be prepared with a script posted in the job description. 

Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge opens up August 29, 2019.

Robert Pattinson on His Acting Skills: “I literally think I have none. At all.”

Robert Pattinson opens up about his acting career and his acting skills.

Robert Pattinson became a household name after starring in the “Twilight” franchise after he was cast as Edward Cullen. But, he admits he feels like an imposter as an actor as a result of “falling into” becoming a famous actor.

The 33-year-old actor told “The Sunday Times” Style magazine: “My friend from school bumped into my form teacher, and they said: ‘It’s so weird what happened to Rob…’ [Some people just] have to show people their talent. I literally think I have none. At all.”

He said that when he reads movie scripts, he will often think: “This would be so cool if some other actor did it.” Robert revealed that his only acting experience before landing the role of Cedric Diggory in the Harry Potter films was after-school acting classes.

Despite lacking self-confidence, the star has an impressive acting career. Pattinson has appeared in many movies including the upcoming thriller “The Devil All The Time,” which stars alongside Tom Holland.  He also just finished an untitled Christopher Nolan production, and a Netflix biopic “The King” with Timothée Chalamet and Lily-Rose Depp.

Pattinson says he had to sign a “behavioral contract” for the Netflix production and says he wants to close the gender pay gap in the film industry.

“If it’s a question of me being paid more and getting a worse actress, or me being paid less and getting a better actress, I’ll do it for f***ing free,” he continued.

About “The Many Saints of Newark”:

The Sopranos is getting a prequel. Ending in 2007, “The Sopranos” made HBO a household name. The show won 21 Primetime Emmys and five Golden Globes. David Chase, “The Sopranos” creator, showrunner, writer and producer is leading the movie. He wrote the script with Lawrence Konner, a Sopranos staff writer.

The Many Saints of Newark is set amid the 1967 Newark riots, which Livia was seen watching live on television during a flashback in the episode “Down Neck”.

There were over a hundred race riots across America in what was dubbed “The Long Hot Summer of 1967”, as tensions boiled over as African Americans continued to face discrimination. In Newark, the start for the riot was one that still shocks the city today is the beating of a black man by police.

“That was a time when the African-Americans and the Italians of Newark were at each other’s throats,” Deadline notes, “and among the gangsters of each group, those conflicts became especially lethal.”
