'Pirates Premiere': Johnny, Penelope, Keith... and Kirstie

Posted: 09 May 2011 10:45 AM PDT

"Extra" chatted with Johnny Depp, Penelope Cruz, Keith Richards and Kirstie Alley at the "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides" premiere on Saturday at the Happiest Place on Earth -- Disneyland!

Depp told Terri Seymour he was happy to go on some rides with his children after the premiere. "Oh yes, absolutely," he confirmed. Johnny revealed he and good pal Steven Tyler are currently writing a song together. "We've been hanging out here and there. He's someone I've admired greatly for such a long time. The idea of writing songs with him is a dream come true."

"Pirates 4" Trailer!

Tyler, who recently released his autobiography, "Does the Noise in My Head Bother You?" had previously said he would choose Depp to portray him on the big screen. Steven told "Extra," "Yeah, we've been writing songs together, what else am I gonna do in L.A. in my downtime from 'Idol'?"

Terri also spoke with the lovely Penelope Cruz, who co-stars in the film -- her first appearance in the "Pirates" franchise. Cruz, who gave birth to her son Leo three short months ago, revealed the secret to staying trim. "I don't follow any of those strange diets. I try to have a healthy lifestyle. But I love food," she confessed. The new mom added, "I haven't done a lot of movies that are for the whole family. That makes me happy about this one."

Playing Captain Teague once more, rocker Keith Richards returned to "Pirates," and confessed, "When Johnny asked me to do this one I said, 'I've got one costume, why not?'"

Even Kirstie Alley left "Dancing with the Stars" rehearsals early to watch Jack Sparrow's adventurous quest to find the Fountain of Youth, and said, "This character is so wrong that it's right! It's funny and sexy."

Here's Why: The Message of Shania Twain's New Show

Posted: 09 May 2011 10:42 AM PDT

Why Not? With Shania Twain has a dubious cause: as the country superstar stated on Sunday night's premiere episode on OWN, "My purpose for doing this is to share with people so they can learn from it." That immediately sets it apart from other reality shows that matter-of-factly follow celebrities (the implicit fact of the matter being that fame makes them fascinating). This show is different, or so we're to believe. This show is special...

The Last Days of American Crime gets director F. Gary Gray

F. Gary Gray (Law Abiding Citizen) has been set to direct The Last Days of American Crime for Radical Studios.

Karl Gajdusek wrote the screenplay, which is based on the Radial Publishing comic book series created by Rick Remender. Sam Worthington is attached to star. Take a look at the official description for the comic book series below.

"In the not-too-distant future as a final response to terrorism and crime, the U.S. government plans in secret to broadcast a signal making it impossible for anyone to knowingly commit unlawful acts. To keep this from the public, the government creates a distraction, installing a new currency system using digital charge cards.

Enter: Graham Brick. A career criminal never quite able to hit the big score, Graham intends to steal one of the charging stations, skip the country and live off unlimited funds for the rest of his life. But the media has leaked news of the anti-crime signal one week before it was to go live...and now Graham and his team have just a few days to turn the crime of the century into the last crime in American history."

Production is scheduled to begin in September on The Last Days of American Crime.

The Last Days of American Crime comes to theaters in 2012 and stars Sam Worthington. The film is directed by F. Gary Gray.


Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter Photo with Ben Walker as the President

Posted: 09 May 2011 10:11 AM PDT

The first official photo from Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter has arrived, which offers a look at Benjamin Walker as our fifteenth president and ancestor of the Frog Brothers. Check out this image below, along with new production information.

Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter Photo

Director Timur Bekmambetov and his crew are striving for authenticity in recreating the personal life of our fifteenth president, Abraham Lincoln. Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter is currently shooting in New Orleans at a 179-year-old Evergreen Plantation. Seth Grahame-Smith, who wrote the popular novel upon which the film is based had this to say about the impending historical action-thriller.

"There's something in the American psyche, we want our presidents to be warriors. We're giving that to Abraham Lincoln, sort of posthumously in this case."

Director Timur Bekmambetov, who is shooting the film in 3D, had this to say about making Abraham Lincoln's backstory historically correct.

"We are very committed. What Lincoln did was like what Jesus did 2,000 years ago: he freed people."

A blend of CGI and practical historical locations will work to tell this story on screen. This will be a true period epic. About the vampires seen in the film, though? Timur Bekmambetov has decided to remain tight-lipped. All that can be said is that there look will be quite "unexpected".

Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter comes to theaters June 22nd, 2012 and stars Benjamin Walker, Anthony Mackie, Dominic Cooper, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Jimmi Simpson, Alan Tudyk, Rufus Sewell. The film is directed by Timur Bekmambetov.

EXCLUSIVE: Derek Cianfrance Talks The Place Beyond the Pines

Posted: 09 May 2011 09:51 AM PDT

Derek Cianfrance discusses his new project The Place Beyond the Pines

Last week we reported that Blue Valentine director Derek Cianfrance is writing and directing a new project entitled The Place Beyond the Pines, which will reunite him with actor Ryan Gosling. I recently had the chance to speak with Derek Cianfrance about the May 10 release of Blue Valentine on Blu-ray and DVD, and he spoke a bit more about this new project. Here's what he had to say below.

"The next film I'm making is called The Place Beyond the Pines, which we'll shoot this summer. We're just locking up all our financing right now. It's a film about fathers and sons. It deals a lot with ancestry. Ryan Gosling is going to play a motorcycle stunt rider who comes back to the town of Schenectady to find out he has a young son from this one-night stand. He has to choose whether he's going to be a father, or whether he's going to be a motorcycle stunt rider. It's kind of a crime movie and it takes place over a couple of generations, and it's definitely very epic in scope. I'm super pumped about doing it."

The director also talked a bit about the crime element in The Place Beyond the Pines, and how this movie wraps up a "trilogy" of sorts, which started with his feature debut, Brother Tied.

"It's going to kind of end like a family trilogy I've been working on, from Brother Tied, which is about brothers, Blue Valentine is about husbands and wives, and this is about fathers and sons. At the same time, there are guns in the new one. I remember shooting Blue Valentine, that scene at the end of the film with Dean and Cindy in the kitchen and it was so emotional, so painful, and so difficult to get to that moment, I thought, 'This is why people put guns in movies.' Emotional violence is more difficult to get to. At the same time, when you put guns in movies, people shoot like 10,000 bullets. In The Place Beyond the Pines, there are two bullets that get shot. When the bullets get fired, they do damage. It's going to hurt."

The Place Beyond the Pines is aiming for a summer shoot, once financing gets fully secured. Our report from last week also indicated that Bradley Cooper has been offered the role of a rookie cop who sparks a feud with Ryan Gosling's character. It isn't known if Bradley Cooper has accepted the role yet.

Be sure to check back for my full interview with Derek Cianfrance about Blue Valentine, which arrives on Blu-ray and DVD on May 10.

The Place Beyond the Pines comes to theaters in 2013 and stars Ryan Gosling, Bradley Cooper. The film is directed by Derek Cianfrance.

Blue Valentine was released December 29th, 2010 and stars Mike Vogel, Ryan Gosling, Michelle Williams, Ben Shenkman, John Doman, Reila Aphrodite, Maryann Plunkett, Faith Wladyka. The film is directed by Derek Cianfrance.


Gotti: Three Generations Gets Writer James Toback

Posted: 09 May 2011 09:19 AM PDT

James Toback will rewrite Gotti: Three Generations with Barry Levinson

Fiore Films, an independent production company, today announced that Academy Award-nominated screenwriter James Toback has been signed to work on the Gotti: Three Generations original screenplay.

The film will be directed and rewritten by Academy Award-winner Barry Levinson with additional writing by Toback. This is the same team that made Bugsy, which earned ten Academy Award nominations.

"Everyone involved with the film is very excited to have James Toback on-board," said Marc Fiore, executive producer and producer of Gotti: Three Generations and CEO of Fiore Films, LLC. "His work with Barry Levinson on Bugsy resulted in a highly acclaimed film that was widely recognized for its original screenplay."

Fiore Films acquired life rights from John Gotti, Jr., the son of the late mob boss John Gotti, to the story of his life with his father. The deal marks the first time a member of the Gotti family has entered into an agreement to tell their story for a major motion picture. Production is expected to begin in late fall, with a theatrical release in late 2012. The film will be shot in New York.

Gotti: Three Generations reveals the relationship of a father who lived and died by the mob code and a son who chose to leave that world behind and redeem himself. Never before has there been such an inside look at the life of the Gotti family and their world of danger, betrayal and redemption.

John Gotti was head of the Gambino crime family, which in its time was the largest and most powerful crime organization in the country. Known as the "Dapper Don," John Gotti's flamboyant style and outspoken personality made him one of the most famous mobsters of the 20th century and he ruled the underworld until he died from cancer in 2002 while serving a life sentence. In 1988, at the age of 24, Gotti Jr. became a "made man," and was officially inducted into the Mafia, making him the heir-apparent to head the Gambino crime family.

Fiore Films, LLC is a film production company with offices in Los Angeles and New Jersey. Films currently in production or development include Gotti: Three Generations and Mob Street. More information is available at FioreFilmsLLC.com. Updates about the Gotti movie can be found on Twitter @gottimovie.

Gotti: Three Generations comes to theaters in 2013 and stars John Travolta, Joe Pesci, Lindsay Lohan, Kelly Preston, Ella Bleu Travolta. The film is directed by Barry Levinson.
