Universal Pictures really, really wants to get their reboot of The Mummy going.  Last September the studio tapped Underworld and Total Recall helmer Len Wiseman to direct the redo of the classic monster movie for a possible 2014 release.  The film will be set in present day and is described as “epic,” and Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman (Star Trek, Transformers) are on board to produce the pic with Jon Spaihts (Prometheus) working on the screenplay.  However, Universal is now taking out a bit of an insurance policy by commissioning a separate, competing script for the film by The Hunger Games and State of Play scribe Billy Ray.  Hit the jump for more details on this atypical approach.

The folks over at Vulture have learned that Universal wants to ensure that production on The Mummy gets underway later this year for its planned 2014 release, and to do that they’ve set Billy Ray to pen a separate script for the film should Spaihts’ draft not shape up to their liking.  Both screenplays are set in modern day, but it’s unknown if Ray’s draft is simply a different take on the same story or if it involves new characters and such.

This is a rare occurrence, but the same approach was also taken with the in-development Bad Santa sequel, as Dimension Films also commissioned two different scripts.  Vulture’s report quotes a source from Universal saying, “Studios don’t shoot movies anymore, they shoot release dates,” which is sadly a very true statement.

The report also notes that ...]]></description>

[With A Good Day to Die Hard set to open this Thursday, we'll be taking a look back at the first four Die Hard movies.  These reviews will contain spoilers since the movies have been out for years.  Click on the respective links for my look back at Die Hard, Die Hard 2, and Die Hard with a Vengeance.]

The longest gap between Die Hard movies was the 12 years between Die Hard with a Vengeance (1995) and Live Free or Die Hard (2007).  In the interim, the world had drastically changed most notably because of 9/11 and developments in communications technology.  No longer could terrorism be casually mentioned as a guise for a heist, and John McClane (Bruce Willis) wouldn't be running around looking for the nearest pay phone.  As Live Free villain Thomas Gabriel (Timothy Olyphant) says to McClane, "You're a Timex watch in a digital age."  It's a crappy metaphor since Timex has been making digital watches for decades, but the sentiment is noteworthy: Is John McClane a relic?  The question doesn't really matter since Live Free or Die Hard barely qualifies as a Die Hard film, especially with Willis' bored performance and the PG-13 rating.  Instead, Live Free is best explored as the way a Die Hard movie would approach terrorism if a Die Hard film was directed by a hand-tied fan who didn't understand the essence of the franchise.



As we saw in Die Hard with a Vengeance, it doesn't hurt to give McClane a partner, but ...]]></description>

Though by no means is it a good movie, Total Recall, the 2012 remake of the Arnold Schwarzenegger/Paul Verhoven action classic, is also not the disaster that some might have expected or hoped for.  For the most part it’s a slightly stupid action movie with a number of big set pieces, but nothing all that memorable about it.  Colin Farrell stars alongside Jessica Biel and Kate Beckinsale in Len Wiseman’s update, and our review of the film on Blu-ray follows after the jump.

Douglas Quaid (Farrell) has been having dreams lately about a big fight and a woman (Biel) he’s in love with. But when he wakes up he’s with his wife (Beckinsale) and has a boring factory job making robots. But his mind is preoccupied with these dreams, and so he goes to Rekall where they give you memories of things that didn’t happen. Where this set-up works fairly elegantly in the original because of Quaid’s desire to go to Mars, here it’s more the thing that has to happen to start the movie. And here there is no Mars, the set up is that the poor half of the world lives in Shanghai, while rich people live in London. There’s a tunnel through the center of the earth that brings the workers into London, but the politics are never more than rich people = mostly bad. But when Quaid goes to Rekall, before he gets any of the treatment, it’s revealed that he’s a government agent and the building ...]]></description>

Earlier this year, we learned that Universal was rebooting The Mummy franchise with Jon Spaihts (Prometheus) to write the screenplay, and Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman on board to produce.  In September, director Len Wiseman (Total Recall) joined the project, and now he has provided some brief details on how his movie will differ from the recent Brendan Fraser flicks.  The character originally found popularity on the screen in 1932 when it was played by the legendary Boris Karloff.

Hit the jump for more.  The Mummy reboot is set for a possible 2014 release.

Speaking to Movieweb, Wiseman provided a brief description of what the new version of The Mummy would be:
"It's horror. Its epic. It's more of a modern day version of what would happen if we came across a mummy in our world today. It is pretty fascinating."
Oh no!  The Mummy is using the Internet!  Kill it! KILL IT WITH TECHNOLOGY!

I am curious to see how the Mummy functions in the modern day since it's not like a vampire or a zombie.  Both of those creatures can function in the present since they have a viral aspect that allows them to propagate their species.  Mummification is fairly complicated process.

Wiseman didn't definitively say that The Mummy will be his next movie, noting, "if The Mummy is to be the next movie for me, is that The Mummy is a completely different film. It is a modern day take. It doesn't have anything to do with the Brendan Fraser films, and it ...]]></description>

The last time we reported on the possible Gears of War adaptation, the picture was a mess, citing a search for a new writer and director, as well as toning down the lofty scale of the treatment and its resulting budget. New Line, which has had the project under its roof since 2007, recently put it into turnaround to focus on The Hobbit films. But with the video game franchise generating over $1 billion in sales and a fourth installment due out next year, Creative Artists Agency is reportedly enthusiastic about meeting with producers to find a new home for the feature adaptation.

Exclusive to the Microsoft 360 console, Gears of War is a military sci-fi third person shooter which centers on the soldiers of Delta Squad in their last-ditch efforts to save the human inhabitants of the planet Sera from unstoppable subterranean creatures known as the Locust Horde.  Hit the jump for more on the fate of the Gears of War movie adaptation.

As Variety reports, director Len Wiseman (Underworld) was previously attached to helm the adaptation, but a number of other projects drew him away.  Chris Morgan (Wanted) and Billy Ray (State of Play) had turned in previous treatments of the script, but the latest version comes from Stuart Beattie (Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides).  In an interesting sidenote, CAA repos both Epic Games (the studio behind Gears of War) and Beattie.  The screenwriter also has a treatment for Halo currently under submission, another property that Microsoft would love to see turn into a successful movie franchise. ...]]></description>

Things are moving rather quickly on Universal’s reboot of The Mummy.  It was announced back in May that Star Trek screenwriters/prolific producers Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman would be developing reboots of both The Mummy and Van Helsing, with Tom Cruise attached to star in the latter.  In subsequent interviews Kurtzman hinted at approaching the reboots with a darker tone than their original counterparts, and sure enough, Underworld and Total Recall director Len Wiseman is now being lined up to take the helm of The Mummy.

Hit the jump for more, including Wiseman’s thoughts on the monster redo.

The script for the Mummy reboot is being written by Prometheus co-writer Jon Spaihts, and Wiseman tells Deadline that he connected with the project’s darker take:
“When I first heard Universal was relaunching this, that is the image that popped into my head, the period tale, the old monster, but when Bob and Alex pitched it, there was a great new take and approach, and a very different mummy as well. It’s a darker twist on the material, a scarier version.”
Wiseman already has a professional relationship with Kurtzman and Orci as he helmed the pilot for their Hawaii Five-0 TV series reboot and he’s also set to direct the pilot for their Sleepy Hollow TV adaptation, so the move makes sense.  Kurtman notes that they’re reaching into the roots of The Mummy with this reboot, and he adds that the original film  “at its beating heart is a horror movie and then an action movie.”  In other ...]]></description>

Now playing in theaters is director Len Wiseman‘s remake of Total Recall.  Based on the short story We Can Remember It for You Wholesale by Philip K. Dick, Total Recall stars Colin Farrell in the role originated by Arnold Schwarzenegger.  In the film, Farrell stars as Douglas Quaid, a man who is bored with his life (even though he’s married to Kate Beckinsale) and seeks to have adventurous memories implanted in his brain.  However, after visiting Recall, both friends and family are after him for different reasons.  But the big problem is he doesn’t know what’s real.  The film also stars Jessica Biel, John Cho, Bill Nighy, and Bryan Cranston.

The other day I got to speak with Len Wiseman here in Los Angeles.  We talked about the challenging shoot, the production design and building a new world, and deleted scenes.  In addition, at last month's Comic-Con, Wiseman revealed to me that the Total Recall Blu-ray will have a director's cut that's 17 minutes longer.  During the recent interview Wiseman confirms that all the additional footage has been finished and talks about some of the scenes. Hit the jump to watch.

Finally, for my two recent interviews with Biel, here’s my Comic-Con interview and the recent junket interview.  Here’s my recent interview with Colin Farrell , Kate Beckinsale, 20 Things to Know about the film from my set visit, and my extended video interview with Cranston from Comic-Con and the recent one from the L.A. junket.

Director Len Wiseman’s remake of Total Recall hits theaters next weekend, and Sony has released five clips and 15 minutes of behind-the-scenes footage from the film in anticipation of the release.  Colin Farrell takes over the role originated by Arnold Schwarzenegger, and judging by these clips and previous trailers, Wiseman’s got a whole lotta sci-fi action in store for moviegoers.  So much so that the director recently revealed to Steve that he put together a director’s cut for the Blu-ray that includes 17 minutes of extra footage.

Hit the jump to check out the clips and behind-the-scenes footage, and be sure to check out Steve’s Comic-Con interviews with stars Jessica Biel and Bryan Cranston.  The film also stars Kate Beckinsale, Bill Nighy, and John Cho.  Total Recall opens on August 3rd.

Here’s the synopsis for Total Recall:
Total Recall is an action thriller about reality and memory, inspired anew by the famous short story “We Can Remember It For You Wholesale” by Philip K. Dick. Welcome to Rekall, the company that can turn your dreams into real memories. For a factory worker named Douglas Quaid (Colin Farrell), even though he’s got a beautiful wife (Kate Beckinsale) who he loves, the mind-trip sounds like the perfect vacation from his frustrating life – real memories of life as a super-spy might be just what he needs. But when the procedure goes horribly wrong, Quaid becomes a hunted man. Finding himself on the run from the police – controlled by Chancellor Cohaagen (Bryan Cranston), ...]]></description>

Over the past two years, Total Recall director Len Wiseman has been very nice to Collider at Comic-Con by giving us two extended video interviews.  Last year, Wiseman revealed that the three-breasted woman would be in the movie and talked about the differences between his remake and the original.  This year, Wiseman told us that while he's very happy with the theatrical cut of Total Recall that runs around an hour and fifty minutes long, the Blu-ray will have a director's cut that includes 17 minutes of additional footage.  Per Wiseman, the director's cut spends more time on "the fantasy vs. reality and the kind of chess game that is played." He adds:
"There are scenes where it really comes into question about questioning his whole reality: I love that game, that’s why I did this movie.  So there’s a lot more of that, so it often can feel like, ‘Is it repeating?’  I personally don’t feel like it is, I feel like it’s really diving in and really just chewing on it for a while, so I’m fascinated by that.”
Hit the jump for more.



During the interview, Wiseman talked about the music in Total Recall, how he just finished the film, the differences between the director’s cut and the theatrical cut, what he learned from his first friends and family screening, if he knows what he's doing next, how he's going to produce The Darkness and more.

A Legend of Sleepy Hollow series is in the works for the 2012 pitch season.  The project will be written by Transformers scribes (it had writers?) Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci, who are adapting it from a Phillip Iscove script.  Len Wiseman (Underworld) is set to direct.  The trio also worked together on the Hawaii Five-0 pilot.

The project is reportedly being shopped to Fox, CBS, ABC and NBC.  Given the recent popularity of reworking fairy tales and mystery stories, Sleepy Hollow shouldn't have trouble finding a home.  But it may need to add some zombies, werewolves and/or aliens to really look attractive.  Ichabod Crane: Vampire Hunter has a nice ring to it, don't you think? For more on the project, hit the jump. 

Though Washington Irving's classic has been remade and exhibited in an exhaustive number of formats and ways (including musicals), this rendition of Sleepy Hollow promises to be slightly different, mostly by not resembling The Legend of Sleep Hollow at all.  Deadline reports that the series is said to be a modern-day supernatural thriller wherein Ichabod Crane will now pair up with Sleepy Hollow's female sheriff (do I sense shades of Elementary with this choice?)  to solve mysteries in the town, which is torn between good and evil (Grimm, anyone?).

Kurtzman and Orci also wrote the pilot for Fox's Fringe, and are probably best known for their writing credits on The Legend of Zoro, Mission Impossible III and Star Trek.  Wiseman's directing credits include Live Free Or Die Hard as well as the upcoming Total Recall remake.  Genre-wise, at least, the trio seem primed to helm a series like Sleepy Hollow, though the project could really go either way.

Returning to Comic-Con for a big Hall H presentation, with its August 3rd theatrical release imminent, Total Recall is now finished and ready for audiences, and the fans were able to get a good idea of what to expect when it hits the big screen.  The film is about a factory worker, named Douglas Quaid (Colin Farrell), who begins to suspect that he is a spy after a visit to Rekall – a company that provides its clients with implanted fake memories of a life they would like to have led – goes wrong and he finds himself on the run.

During a press conference with director Len Wiseman and actors Colin Farrell, Kate Beckinsale, Jessica Biel and Bryan Cranston, they spoke about how they decided what to keep from the original, identifying with such over-the-top material, what excited them about the script, Cranston’s horrible case of pink eye in both eyes (that had to later be digitally removed from the film), the theme of paranoia about the invasion of technology in our society, building a futuristic world, and whether the sci-fi genre still has a lower level of respect than other genres.  Jessica Biel also said that it’s still a bit too early to say that she’s signed on as Viper for the Wolverine film.  Check out what they had to say after the jump.  Also, check out our recap of the Total Recall panel.



Question: Len, what made you decide to keep the same characters for this, ...]]></description>

It's rare for a film to come to consecutive Comic-Cons, but Total Recall showed up last year at the beginning of production, and now it's returned with its theatrical release only weeks away.  We've seen multiple trailers, TV spots, images, and featurettes, so I was curious what a panel would have to offer.  It's return to Comic-Con is part of a final big push.  Having seen both panels, and being less-than-impressed the first time around, I was curious to see if a sneak peek at the completed footage would get me on board.

Hit the jump for my recap, and click here for all of our Comic-Con coverage.



The moderator brings on director Len Wiseman, and stars Colin Farrell, Kate Beckinsale, Jessica Biel, and Bryan Cranston.

-      Wiseman said the final cut was locked four days ago.

-      Farrell says he had a good time making the film, but he didn't feel like he had to fill Schwarzenegger's size 16 shoes.

We then get a look at some footage from the film.  We're shown a six minute reel.  Here are the major points:

-      The footage opens with what we've seen from the trailer where the premise of the film is laid out.

-      Then there's a big fight between Farrell and Beckinsale's characters.

-      Farrell escapes and then runs through some rainy streets that are highly reminiscent of Blade Runner.

-      We then see that the phone is under Farrell's skin, the phone is tracking him, and he has to physically cut it out.

-      We then go to ...]]></description>

With director Len Wiseman's Total Recall reboot less than a month away, a new clip has popped up online.  Unfortunately, the clip just rehashes the same extended action sequence we've seen in the trailer.  Colin Farrell stars as Douglas Quaid, a man who is bored with his life and seeks to have adventurous memories implanted in his brain.  In the clip, we watch as Farrell's plans go awry and he goes all Jason Bourne on a number of faceless federal police. It's much less sexy than Farrell vs co-star Kate Beckinsale, which we saw in this earlier clip.  The only thing tempting me to see the movie at this point is some Beckinsale vs Jessica Biel action.  Total Recall, also starring Bill Nighy, John Cho and Bryan Cranston, debuts August 3rd.  Hit the jump to watch the new(ish) clip.

Check out the clip from Yahoo! (via CBM):

Official synopsis:
Total Recall is an action thriller about reality and memory,  inspired anew by the famous short story “We Can Remember It For You  Wholesale” by Philip K. Dick. Welcome to Rekall, the company that can  turn your dreams into real memories. For a factory worker named Douglas  Quaid (Colin Farrell), even though he’s got a beautiful wife (Kate  Beckinsale) who he loves, the mind-trip sounds like the perfect vacation  from his frustrating life – real memories of life as a super-spy might  be just what he needs.

The Top Cow comic series The Darkness is getting the big screen treatment.   Sources tell us that Regency is nearing a deal to obtain the feature film rights to the comic with producers David Hoberman and Todd Lieberman (The Fighter, The Muppets).  Moreover, Total Recall director and “godfather” of the Underworld series Len Wiseman would produce the film.  Mandeville's David Manpearl will also be involved and Top Cow's Marc Silvestri and Matt Hawkins will be Executive Producing.

Created by David Wohl, Marc Silvestri, and Garth Ennis, the mythologically dense comic first appeared in 1996 and centers on an ageless power called “The Darkness.”  The primordial force has been at war with its equal and opposite, The Angelus, since creation, and takes root in male hosts.  Awakened at the host’s 21st birthday, The Darkness allows its host to create and control anything he desires, including sentient beings.  Hit the jump for more.



The current wielder of The Darkness is a former hitman for the mob who develops a slight control over the force.  He wrestles with his strong set of morals and his carnal nature, trying to keep from wholly giving into The Darkness.  That's not to say that he doesn't do a fair amount of killing and evil-doing in the meantime, though.  Read a full synopsis below (via Top Cow).
Before time was time, the Earth was formless and void and darkness stretched over the surface of the deep. Then God said "Let there be light." And there was light, and God saw that it was ...]]></description>

A new theatrical trailer for director Len Wiseman’s Total Recall remake has been released.  This trailer includes quite a few nods to the 1990 Arnold Schwarzenegger-fronted iteration of the story, with everyone’s favorite three-breasted woman making an appearance (kind of).  There are a couple of groan worthy one-liners that are apparently a requirement for 90% of action movies, but I’m hoping Colin Farrell’s charisma will outweigh the dialogue flaws.  The sci-fi world that Wiseman’s built here looks impressive, and we definitely get the sense that there are going to be a lot of action sequences to marvel at.  I’m interested to see what makes Wiseman’s remake a story worth telling and not just a rehash of the original, so hopefully this Total Recall’s a fun ride.

Hit the jump to watch the trailer, and if you missed any of Steve’s set visit coverage click here.  The film also stars Kate Beckinsale, Jessica Biel, and Bryan Cranston.  Total Recall opens on August 3rd.

Over the past few weeks, some really cool viral posters for director Len Wiseman’s Total Recall reboot have been popping up in bus shelters and on billboards.  They’ve finally landed online in a high resolution capacity, so we can take a closer look at this fun collection.  The posters act as advertisements for “Rekall” which, if you’re unfamiliar with the story, is a place in the future where people can go to have false memories implanted in their brains to give them the satisfaction of fulfilling fantasies that have actually never physically been experienced.  These posters advertise the fact that you can become a soccer superstar, an astronaut, or even a smiling businessman with a cell phone at Rekall.  There’s also one outlier poster that warns of potential dangers at the business, but it’s the wet blanket of the group.

Hit the jump to check out the posters, and if you missed any of Steve’s set visit coverage click here.  The film stars Colin Farrell, Jessica Biel, Kate Beckinsale, John Cho and Bryan Cranston.  Total Recall opens on August 3rd.

Apologies for the lack of a Top 5 last weekend. I was so busy prepping to get married, and eventually getting married, that I had to cash in a "sick day" on the best weekend job a person could ask for. The good news is that I have no intention on making this a routine (either the "sick day" or the getting married) so we should be good to go on the regular Top 5 installments for the foreseeable future. The bad news is that I doubt the substantial pile of wedding cards filled with cash/gift cards will catch on as a routine either. You win some you lose some, I guess.
In this week's return edition you can find a recap of our Total Recall set visit coverage, a new trailer for Breaking Bad Season 5 alongside a fan-made recap of Seasons 1-4, continuing coverage of Prometheus such as Blu-ray details, a sequel recap and more, the first full trailer for Resident Evil: Retribution, and our Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter set visit. Keep reading for a brief recap and link to each.
1. TOTAL RECALL Set Visit Coverage

If you've followed the Top 5 for the past few months then you know my initial thoughts on director Len Wiseman's Total Recall remake: 1) I'm confident it will be fine. 2) I'm also confident that I'll probably prefer Paul Verhoeven's original. Nevertheless, I'll be more than happy to eat my words if necessary and I absolutely encourage those interested in the update to ...]]></description>

Colin Farrell is holding a futuristic black gun that fires energy rather than bullets.  He's standing behind a sliding white door inside a capsule that travels through the center of the Earth.  Inside the room he's trying to enter, armed Federal soldiers are guarding a valuable prisoner: Melina (Jessica Biel), one of the leaders of the underground resistance, and she's trying to get rid of Vilos Cohaagen (the leader of the United Federation of Britain, who's being played by Bryan Cranston).  An assistant director calls action, the door slides open and Farrell comes barreling in, firing his weapon and killing three soldiers.  After freeing Biel, Farrell explains that Cohaagen is lying and he's not with him. As he pleads with her, it's clear Biel is not sure what to believe, but she eventually embraces him with watery eyes.  After a long kiss, they race out of the capsule and someone calls cut.

Let me back up a second.

As I type these words, it's August 11, 2011 and I'm at the Toronto International Airport on my way back home.  Yesterday, I spent all day on the Toronto set of director Len Wiseman's Total Recall remake.  While some set visits might be a few hours, we arrived on set around 10:30am and didn't leave until 10:30pm.  It was a crazy day where we got to see tons of cool production art, interview the cast and filmmakers, and we saw huge practical sets that are going to look amazing on screen.  For my full ...]]></description>

One of the best things about director Paul Verhoeven's  Total Recall is you don't know what's real and what's in Douglas Quaid/Hauser's head (Arnold Schwarzenegger).  And while you can make a great case for both, there is no definite answer, and I think that's one of the reasons the film holds up today.  So last summer, on the set of the remake, I was able to participate in a group interview with director Len Wiseman and we asked him if the ending will be clear, or if it'll be like the original.  He told us:
"There’s going to be a lot of speculation.  I would think — I would hope — some people are going to absolutely think one way, and because of certain details that I’m putting in there, [certain people] may think the other.  It is something that I love:  the continued conversation about it."
During the rest of the interview, Wiseman and producer Toby Jaffe talked about referencing the original, lens flares, how much influence the original Philip K.  Dick story had on the remake, Easter eggs from the original film, sequel possibilities, if they kept any classic one-liners, and a lot more.  Hit the jump to either read or listen to the interview.



Before getting to the interview, here's the latest trailer:

The first clip and TV spot for director Len Wiseman’s remake of Total Recall have landed online.  The clip should be familiar to fans of the 1990 Total Recall starring Arnold Scharzenegger, as it features Colin Farrell’s character coming home to his “wife” played by Kate Beckinsale after some unknown assailants tried to capture him.  A fight ensues and, needless to say, Beckinsale’s iteration of Lori appears to be much more lethal (and bendy) than Sharon Stone’s.  We’ve also got the first TV spot for the film, which does a nice job of setting up the plot for those unfamiliar with the material.  Though I’m still unsure about the pic storywise, the visuals on display in the clip and TV spot promise some intense sci-fi action as well as lens flares that would make J.J. Abrams proud.

Hit the jump to check out the clip, TV spot, and a new image.  The film also stars Jessica Biel, John Cho, Bill Nighy, and Bryan Cranston.  Total Recall opens on August 3rd.

Here’s the synopsis for Total Recall:
Total Recall is an action thriller about reality and memory, inspired anew by the famous short story “We Can Remember It For You Wholesale” by Philip K. Dick.
