First Day of Spring Brings New Trailer For The Romantic Comedy MAN UP

The first day of Spring usually ushers in thoughts of flowers, sunny days and romance. What better way to celebrate the day than with this great first trailer for the feel-good British comedy MAN UP.

Directed by Ben Palmer (THE INBETWEENERS MOVIE), written by Tess Morris (THE LOVE PUNCH) and starring Lake Bell & Simon Pegg, the film will have its world premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival on April 19.

Nancy (Lake Bell), is done with dating. 10 times bitten, 100 times shy, she’s exhausted by the circus. So when Jack (Simon Pegg) blindly mistakes her for his date, no one is more surprised than her when she does the unthinkable and just —- goes with it.

It’s going to take a night of pretending to be someone else for Nancy to finally Man Up and be her painfully honest, awesomely unconventional self… but will Jack also Man Up, and be able to get over her duplicity?

Best just to let the evening unfold, roll with the consequences, and see if one crazy, unpredictable, complicated night can bring these two messy souls together.

MAN UP opens in UK cinemas on May 29.

Simon Pegg Stars In The New Trailer for KILL ME THREE TIMES

Shootings, car chases, crashes, explosions, fires, and so much more, check out the new trailer for director Kriv Stenders’ KILL ME THREE TIMES.

The action thriller stars Sullivan Stapleton, Alice Braga, Teresa Palmer, Callan Mulvey, Luke Hemsworth, Bryan Brown and Simon Pegg.

Watch the red-band trailer HERE.

Simon Pegg plays the mercurial assassin, Charlie Wolfe, who discovers he isn’t the only person trying to kill the siren of a sun-drenched surfing town (Alice Braga). Charlie quickly finds himself at the center of three tales of murder, mayhem, blackmail and revenge.

With an original screenplay by James McFarland, the film also stars Sullivan Stapleton (as a gambling addict who attempts to pay off his debts through a risky life insurance scam), Teresa Palmer (as a small town Lady Macbeth), Callan Mulvey (as a wealthy beach club owner simmering with jealousy), Luke Hemsworth (as a local surfer fighting for the woman he loves) and Bryan Brown (as a corrupt cop who demands the juiciest cut).

The movie was filmed in Australia. So what makes this thriller rock?

Pegg says KILL ME THREE TIMES is a film that audiences can really get involved in. “You do have to stay on your toes with it, you can’t just sit back and let it wash over, you have to keep an eye on each thread and the way the time frame works. Sometimes the audience will feel like they are completely in the know, and sometimes they will realize that they are not. It’s enjoyable to watch as an audience member because you feel at once a part of it, and at the same time surprised.”

Actor Bryan Brown agrees that KILL ME THREE TIMES offers something new to the Australian movie genre. “It’s intriguing, it’s about deceit, it’s colorful. It keeps zipping along, you’re not sure where it’s going…and there’s murders in Western Australia!” he says, with a laugh.

But it’s Callan Mulvey who sums the film up best, with this simple statement. “If KILL ME THREE TIMES were a car, it would be a ’69 Dodge Charger. It’s fast, fun, well-engineered and a hell of ride!”

Magnet Releasing will release KILL ME THREE TIMES on iTunes/On Demand March 26, 2015 and in theaters April 10, 2015.

THE BOXTROLLS Are Here With A New Poster

Mark your calendars, because THE BOXTROLLS are coming to theaters on September 26th. But before they do, Focus Features has released this cute, character filled poster for their upcoming film.

Get to know Fish, Eggs, Shoe, Oil Can and the entire gang in this new video.

(Moviefone)

THE BOXTROLLS is a family event movie from LAIKA, the creators of Coraline and ParaNorman, that introduces audiences to a new breed of family – The Boxtrolls, a community of quirky, mischievous creatures who have lovingly raised an orphaned human boy named Eggs (voiced by Isaac Hempstead Wright of Game of Thrones) in the amazing cavernous home they’ve built beneath the streets of Cheesebridge.

When the town’s villain, Archibald Snatcher (Academy Award winner Ben Kingsley), comes up with a plot to get rid of the Boxtrolls, Eggs decides to venture above ground, “into the light,” where he meets and teams up with fabulously feisty Winnie (Elle Fanning of Maleficent). Together, they devise a daring plan to save Eggs’ family.

Based upon the book Here Be Monsters, by Alan Snow, THE BOXTROLLS is directed by Anthony Stacchi and Graham Annable.
