EXCLUSIVE: Kevin Tancharoen Talks Mortal Kombat Posted: 31 Mar 2011 11:15 AM PDT Director Kevin Tancharoen discusses Mortal Kombat, how his short film accidentally went viral, a Cyrax vs. Sektor episode and much more. Back in June of last year, an intriguing video hit the internet for a new version of Mortal Kombat entitled Mortal Kombat: Rebirth. The short film featured Michael Jai White as Jax, Jeri Ryan as Sonya Blade, Michael Mullins as Johnny Cage, and Ian Anthony Dale as Scorpion. The short caught on like wildfire with over 10 million views on YouTube. At the time, it was reported this was actually test footage shot to gauge interest in a Mortal Kombat movie for Warner Bros. While the motion picture isn't happening in the immediate future, Warner Premiere ordered 10 episodes of a Mortal Kombat web series, which will debut soon, although a specific release date has not been announced yet. Director Kevin Tancharoen is the driving force behind both Mortal Kombat: Rebirth and the Mortal Kombat web series, writing and directing all 10 episodes. I recently had the chance to speak with Kevin Tancharoen over the phone about this exciting new project. Here's what he had to say. Are you still in production in Vancouver right now? Kevin Tancharoen: I'm actually in Vancouver doing post-production now. We'd always post whatever Twitpics you'd send out. They'd always get a pretty good response. Kevin Tancharoen: Yeah. I keep tweeting these random photos here and there and I'm glad that people are liking what they're seeing so far. Hopefully that can carry on to when the actual episodes air. When the Mortal Kombat: Rebirth short hit, it was huge. No one really expected it. It was wonderful to see. Can you talk about where that whole thing came from? There was talk it was supposed to be a movie first, and that was test footage to gauge interest in a movie. Kevin Tancharoen: Yeah. I didn't intend for it to go on the internet. Ever. I had always thought that doing a reboot, I guess that's the term, of Mortal Kombat, would be really cool, and I had an idea on how to do it. It was one of those weekend projects, where everyone happened to be in town and I had a lot of equipment. I basically was just going to use it to, not only say that we could make a Mortal Kombat movie, but I had done nothing but dance stuff and performance-driven material my entire life. All I wanted to do was do a genre film. I wanted to do action and sci-fi and horror, and I just knew that nobody would say, 'Hey, the guy who worked with Britney (Spears) and directed Fame should do this action sci-fi movie we have.' So, I decided I had to make a proof of concept that I could handle that kind of material. I did that and, the way it ended up online is I'm not really a YouTube savvy tech guy. I'm technical when it comes to editing and ProTools and that kind of stuff, but not with YouTube. I wanted to send a video to a colleague of mine to get some feedback. It was like a two-gig file, and I had no way of sending a two-gig file, neither one of us had an FTP. Someone said you could send a private video on YouTube or Vimeo, and just make it a private link. That's what I did, and somehow, that private link wasn't so private. People ended up getting the link and started to copy/paste, copy/paste. I mean, it was still a private link when people were watching it, but then everyone got a hold of it. I found out about it going up on YouTube when it was trending on Twitter. I originally was nervous because I thought someone beat me to the chase, that kind of thing (Laughs). I clicked on the link and it was my video and I thought, 'What the hell?' Thank God people liked it, because that whole plan could have backfired in the worse way possible, if people were tearing it apart. I hope we get the same kind of response when we release these episodes. That's an awesome story. Kevin Tancharoen: Yeah, it's a very interesting story, and slightly embarrassing, but it did have a good outcome, so I don't feel so bad to share it. In the short, we saw Jax and Scorpion and Sonya, but in these Twitpics we've seen a few new characters. Can you talk about Blue and the other new characters we'll see? Kevin Tancharoen: Yeah. We're really doing a lot of the iconic characters, so we have Sonya, Jax, and Kano, which is a new character in that realistic world. We're going to do an episode with Scorpion and Sub-Zero, but it takes place in ancient Japan. The whole episode is in Japanese and you see the depth of Scorpion's family and clan and how they got murdered, etc. That one is going to be very epic, because of the iconic characters. We're doing Rayden, of course, because you can't do Mortal Kombat without Rayden. We're doing Kitana and Mileena and we're also doing a really, really cool one. The one that I'm most excited about is Cyrax and Sektor. Oh, really? Kevin Tancharoen: Yeah, they're the two robots. One, you have a chance to do fighting robots, so I was pretty excited to do that one. It's going to be great. That one is going to be so much fun. Can you talk about the through-line connecting these episodes? Is there a world domination sort of thing that is underlying throughout these stories? Kevin Tancharoen: There is an underlying storyline for most of them. Some of them are just introductions into the characters' back story. The idea of the tournament itself will always be a through-line that you just can't ignore, since that's the foundation of the story. That's not put in the forefront, though. What's put in the forefront is the emotional journeys of the characters. Now, I know that's a weird thing to say about Mortal Kombat. The tournament is just a given. That's kind of why everyone is around each other. We need to find out their motive for going to the tournament, that's what makes it interesting. If it's just a bunch of guys who want to go and beat the crap out of each other, that's cool for like five minutes, but if you don't have any motivation, or you don't know where they come from, or what their back story is or what's at stake, it's pointless. That's what we're trying to achieve in all of these, that you get insight into all the characters, so that when you do see them in the tournament together, you know why they are all there, and not just that they're there to show off some karate moves. I think it makes it much bigger and much more interesting. As far as I know, there hasn't been a launch date set. Is there anything set in stone yet for when this will go online? Kevin Tancharoen: I don't believe we do. (At this point, a rep came on the line and said it would, "probably be the early part of April.") Kevin Tancharoen: Yeah. One episode will definitely come out before the game is released, and that's April 19. OK. Will it be one episode a week for 10 weeks then? Is that what you're looking at now? Kevin Tancharoen: Yeah, that's how we're kind of approaching it, as of now. Are you getting anything together for a possible DVD release also? Do you have extra footage or bonus goodies that you would throw on a DVD? Kevin Tancharoen: I mean, I know that we have so much bonus material that I think people will find interesting. I hope it's successful enough that people will want to own it on Blu-ray or DVD. I think we'll approach that one step at a time, but I'm confident that we have enough material to fulfill something like that. Are you looking for a Season 2 then? Would you still like to continue on the web or would you like to branch out onto cable or broadcast, or do you think the web is the best place for this now? Kevin Tancharoen: I think that, with a property or a franchise which has the scope that Mortal Kombat does, I think it's interesting to use different mediums to showcase different parts of that universe. I think the web series itself helps motivate a bunch of back stories. I still think that a feature version of it would be gigantic, but it also works to do both. You have the supporting episodes on the web, that people will get into the origin stories and all that stuff. The movie is obviously the big event, and you see things like that happening quite a bit now. Like, for instance, I'm getting ready for Sucker Punch to come out, and, on the internet, supporting it, are a bunch of animated shorts. It's kind of like how The Animatrix opened up the world of The Matrix and made it much bigger. It's not in the feature film, but it made the universe gigantic, and you were able to see different stories with it. I kind of like doing both, to be completely honest. The web series could be a stepping stone then, for many other things? Kevin Tancharoen: Yeah, yeah, of course. Can you talk about the kinds of special effects we can expect from the show? Kevin Tancharoen: I'm working with a company out here called Gold Tooth Creative. They're very, very talented visual effects artists. They're really amazing at raising the bar at what people would expect from internet-driven content. We're pushing the boundaries to make this look as much like a big-budget feature film as possible. There are so many visual effects in every episode, especially the robot one (Laughs). They're like two Iron Man's fighting each other. You just can't have them be photo-real CG robots. In the Cyrax/Sektor episode, do those guys actually talk at all? Or is it straight-up fighting? Kevin Tancharoen: They talk when they're in human form. Then they get changed to robots, and there's a pretty epic fight scene when they're robots. We did full motion-capture for that and we're starting to put the layers on it now, and texturing and shading it and all that good stuff, to make it look photo-real and make it look like it's gigantic. That's one of the most intense visual effects episodes, because it's robots on robots. There's a certain level of expectations you have with fighting robots, because the material is out there already. We're just trying to make them as polished as possible. Another iconic aspect of the game is that announcer's voice, who announces all the rounds at 'Fatality.' Do you have a voice like that when the fights are on? Kevin Tancharoen: Oh, no, no. We treat the fights like they would be in any sort of realistic environment. We don't need that kind of structure to it, like Round 1, Round 2, or where the Fatality happens. It's more fluid and organic. But I am an avid martial arts film fan, so we're really pushing the boundaries with the fight choreographer trying to make it feel fluid but also gritty at the same time, so it feels more raw but there still is an aspect of martial arts involved. Was there an extensive training period for the actors before you shot this, to get everyone in fighting shape, so to speak? Kevin Tancharoen: I mean, I called everyone and made sure they were in fighting shape. We did do rehearsals and we shot a pretty extensive pre-viz with the stunt guys, to show all the angles and cut it together, so we can all sit down and watch it. With the short amount of time we had, that was all we could really do. It's not like we took them to boot camp or anything like that. They came prepared and ready to learn and we had a really solid pre-viz going on, so they could see how to move, what could change, what could not change, and work from there. Is there anything else that you're working on after Mortal Kombat wraps that you can talk about? Kevin Tancharoen: Right now, my attention is so focused on this. There are a couple of other things that I'm supposed to be working on, but I've had to put them aside for now. This is, one, a lot of work, and, two, it's too much fun. I have to just make sure these episodes come out as good as everyone is expecting them to be. I'm 100% focused on this right now. Just to wrap up, what would you like to say to anyone who might be curious about the web series, about why they should check out Mortal Kombat when it comes out online next month? Kevin Tancharoen: Well, I think everyone has a nostalgic idea about what Mortal Kombat is to them. I don't think anyone has ever seen such detailed story lines about back story of Mortal Kombat. Some people just either know the original movie, or they know it as a fighting game. They'll be quite interested to find out how intricate the story lines really are. The visual effects are going to be amazing and the fight choreography is just a lot of fun. I don't think you'll find anything like this anywhere on the internet. To take an iconic franchise like Mortal Kombat and try to make that universe that much more bigger, I think fans will get a kick out of it. Great. Thanks so much for your time, Kevin. I can't wait to see the episodes. Kevin Tancharoen: All right. Thanks man. Be sure to check out Kevin Tancharoen's Mortal Kombat when it comes out online sometime in April. We'll update you as soon as an official release date is announced for this upcoming web series.

First (Obscured) Glimpse Of Martin Freeman as Bilbo Baggins On The Set Of The Hobbit Posted: 30 Mar 2011 10:50 AM PDT The guys at OneRing.Net are unsure who, or what that is in the last picture. I'd say a Dwarf without his hair and beard applied myself. Anyway, The Hobbit hits theaters November 2012 and stars Cate Blanchett, Saoirse Ronan, Orlando Bloom, Elijah Wood, Martin Freeman, David Tennant, Ian McKellen, Christopher Lee. The film is directed by Peter Jackson.

On another note, its a shame we'll never see J.K. Simmons ever again on the big screen as JJJ, now Sony has decided to reboot.

Zack Snyder On Henry Cavill As Superman, Amy Adams As Lois Lane And Possible Villains! Posted: 30 Mar 2011 10:42 AM PDT On Casting Amy Adams As Lois Lane: "Amy is really just an amazing talent. I think she grounds the part in a really amazing way, for me anyway. She's beautiful and she's smart. What we're trying to do with the project, she just really sort of embodies everything we're going for." On Casting Henry Cavill As Superman: "As you know, he was up for the role before. That was 8 years ago I think. And I think now, the thing's that awesome, the thing that i love about him is that he's a man. And I think it's been a while since we had a manly Superman. And also, he has this little bit of kindness which is important." On Whether General Zod Will Be The Villain: "I like that there's this whole process of elimination. I can't say exactly who it is. As you know, this is a secret project! I hope that when people

Lelia Broussard Dreams of Landing Rolling Stone Cover, Rocking With Prince Posted: 30 Mar 2011 02:00 PM PDT Filed under: News, Exclusive, Q + A Gino DePinto, AOL Lelia Broussard and her acoustic guitar were literally attached at the hip when the rising indie-pop rocker dropped by Spinner's headquarters for a performance and interview. On top of getting noticed for her songwriting talents, Broussard recently made it through to the latest round of Rolling Stone's "Do You Wanna Be a Rock 'n' Roll Star" contest, an elimination-style competition that will give the winner a place on the magazine's cover and a performance slot at Bonnaroo. Tuning her guitar with an iPhone app and strumming between the Q&A, the 21-year-old Louisiana native discussed her latest album, 'Masquerade,' childhood dreams of diva-dom, playing gigs with Lady Gaga back when she was Stefani Germanotta and her fantasy of rocking out onstage with Prince. How did you get started in music? I can't remember a time when music wasn't a huge part of my life. I was singing as soon as I could talk and annoying my mom in the grocery store. I grew up in the diva age of Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey, so I was like, "I'm going to be a diva!" Then I started playing guitar and writing songs and it's been a long process since then.

Detailed X-Men: First Class Scene Descriptions Posted: 30 Mar 2011 10:11 AM PDT There are some detailed descriptions in this month's First Class issue of Empire including dialog etc. So a SPOILER WARNING is obvious. The first scene they witnessed was the birth of Cerebro as Charles Xavier puts on the dome shaped helmet for the first time. It seems that in this movie's continuity, the machine was built by Henry McCoy!.. McAvoy, Fassbender, Hoult and Jennifer Lawrence enter the lab. Hoult(Hank McCoy) briefly explains what Cerebro is. "It's Spanish for brain". ..(McAvoy lowers the device onto his head).."Are you sure we cant shave your head Charles?" asks Fassbender. "Don't touch my hair" replies the egghead in waiting(that's one for the fanboys) Next, the scene glimpsed in the trailers with Fassbender ramming a knife onto an unfortunate man's hand while sitting at a table. Empire have more details as to what is transpiring here.. ..It features Erik, on a mission of vengeance against Shaw(Kevin Bacon) confronting a

Amy Adams On What Attracted Her To Play Lois Lane In Superman: Man of Steel! Posted: 30 Mar 2011 10:03 AM PDT While attending CinemaCon in Las Vegas, Amy Adams shared some of her thoughts on why she decided to play Lois Lane in Zack Snyder's Superman: Man Of Steel. From Hero Complex: "I think the role of women in society constantly changes. And what I love about Lois Lane is that she's been very consistently strong, successful, independent. I'm very attracted to that. It was a time when women were really — I don't want to make some grand statement because I know it will come across as a grand statement — but [women were often limited by society then and] what I loved about her was that she was able to be smart and be feminine and I think that that's something I know I'm going to teach my daughter, that you don't have to be a man to be powerful. You can be a powerful woman." Superman: Man of Steel is set to

World War Z Moves Forward with Brad Pitt Posted: 30 Mar 2011 08:58 AM PDT Last we heard, Paramount Pictures' adaptation of Max Brooks' zombie novel World War Z was in financial trouble. That may not be the case any longer, as David Ellison's Skydance production house, as well as two other unknown financiers, are looking to share the $125 million budget with the studio. Brad Pitt is still attached to star in the production, with Paramount planning a June start date for principle photography. Marc Forster is still set to direct the thriller, which looks at the aftermath of a global zombie infestation ten years down the road. Matt Carnahan is still the credited screenwriter at this point in the game. Paramount Pictures is hoping to have the film finished before a second onslaught of zombie films infiltrates the Cineplex in the next couple of years. The genre is hot once again with Summit moving forward on the romantic living dead romp Warm Bodies, Lionsgate prepping Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, Universal doing the zombie police comedy R.I.P.D., and sequels to 28 Days Later, Resident Evil, and Zombieland 2 all on the way. There is also The Kitchen Sink, which finds a teen teaming up with a zombie and a vampire to battle an alien invasion, and Paul is Undead which reimagines The Beatles as undead flesh eaters. If Paramount doesn't move on World War Z soon, they may put the project on the back burner indefinitely due to zombie fatigue. World War Z is in development and stars Brad Pitt. Warm Bodies comes to theaters in 2012. Pride and Prejudice and Zombies comes to theaters in 2011. R.I.P.D. is in development and stars Ryan Reynolds. The film is directed by Robert Schwentke. 28 Days Later was released June 27th, 2003 and stars Alex Palmer, Bindu De Stoppani, Jukka Hiltunen, David Schneider, Cillian Murphy, Toby Sedgwick, Naomie Harris, Noah Huntley.

James McAvoy Reveals Some Major X-Men: First Class Spoilers! Posted: 30 Mar 2011 09:52 AM PDT IGN Movies, the Scottish actor goes into a great amount of detail about his role in X-Men: First Class, and below are just a few of the highlights. To read it in its entirety, be sure to head on over to the site by clicking on the link below! So does that scene with his legs happen in the film? Yeah, it does. We see why he can no longer walk and why he is in a wheelchair. And hopefully we'll find out why he lost his hair as well. In the comics he loses his hair when he sort of gains or discovers his powers. But obviously that is not the way they wanted to go in this case. Were you wondering what you would look like with a shaved head? Yeah, I shaved it not that long ago, so when I started this my hair was particularly short and they wanted me

Jazz Fest to Honor Haiti's Musical and Tragic Relationship With New Orleans Posted: 30 Mar 2011 01:00 PM PDT Filed under: Concerts and Tours, News, Exclusive, Around the World Daniel Morel When the bands RAM Haiti and Boukman Eksperyans played at the 1994 New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival as part of the spring event's spotlight on Haitian arts and cultures that year, the shared aspects of the two places were hard to miss for the visiting musicians. The generations-ago influx of Afro-Caribbean traditions via the slave trade and, in particular, diaspora following the Haitian slave rebellion linked the locales by history and culture: the Vodou ceremonies and drumming that became jazz in New Orleans' Congo Square, the carnival parades, the architecture, the food. Oh yes, the food. "Hot spices, rice and beans, a lot of similarities," says RAM Haiti founder and leader Richard A. Morse. "We have a lot in common," says Boukman co-founder Theodore "Lolo" Beaubrun. "The food, a lot of things. New Orleans is like a Caribbean city."

Tom Hiddleston Talks Thor And Once Again Addresses The Avengers! Posted: 30 Mar 2011 09:15 AM PDT Transcript from Empire: Hiddleston has now seen the film, and while it's no surprise that he likes it, he sounds genuinely effusive about it.
