Christian Cooke ready for The Fantastic Four?

Have you said goodbye to Ian Gruffudd,  Jessica Alba,  Chris Evans, Michael Chiklis and Julian McMahon?… Maybe not yet but it’s time to focus on who will be the next  The Fantastic Four. The rumors are moving very fast. Michael B. Jordan is the only actor attached at this point as the Human Torch (I don’t…

New Project for Emma Watson

She has left  long time ago the brilliant and innocent Hermione from the Harry Potter’s Saga. Now Emma Watson is a Woman with the capitol W, but she is still the simple girl that we met years ago on the screen.  During these years we saw her with a broken heart next to Eddie Redmayne…

The Invisible Woman: London Première

“The Invisible Woman” London première in London was simple and elegant as it is the movie. Just a red carpet under a little fall of rain outside Odeon in Kensington High Road. On the carpet we met the composer Ilan Eshkeri (Trinity, Stardust, From Time to Time, Coriolanus, I Give it a Year, Austeland),  the…

Only Lovers Left Alive

In a distorted  atmosphere, a perfect cast transports  us into a story that basically talks about love, with the alternative nature typical of Jim Jarmush. To crown this feeling almost otherworldly are ethnic music and night environments to carry us into the world of Adam and Eve. Adam (Tom Hiddleston) is a centuries-old vampire.  He…

Look in a mirror darlin: Farragut North

Ryan Glosling who?  Please, we have Max Irons on stage. We just saw him as the charming King Edward IV in the Starz and BBC series The White Queen but now Max Irons has turned his attention to an equal enchanting political PR in Beau Willimon’s play Farragut North at the Southwark Playhouse in London.…

Like a dull actor, I have forgot my part …. No, he is grown from man to dragon. Putting next to each other, a work as Coriolanus and a small theater without stage as the Donmar, it may seem like a paradox worthy of the best Zeno. But, if we avoid the frustrating war to…

Ed Westwick

I’m Chuck Bass, even an European must know what that means. For those like me who were born in the mid 80s Ed Westwick corresponds to the difficult and fascinating character of Chuck Bass from the acclaimed television series Gossip Girls. Ed was born on June 27, 1987 in Stevenage, Hertfordshire, England as Edward Westwick.…

Max Irons

Max Irons: The New Romeo Speaking about the new movie The Devil’s Harvest, actor Tam Hassan said that this story is like a new Romeo and Juliet version and I think that Max Irons has all the credentials to be the new Romeo. Max Irons was born on October 17, 1985 in Camden, London, England…

A chat with Peter Berg

I met the director Peter Berg at the Apple Store in Regent Street in London. He was there for the event: “Meet the filmmaker: Lone Survivor’s director and writer Peter Berg”. Casual as usual: jeans and white shirt, Berg gave the audience an hour of insights on his latest work: Lone Survivor (you can read…

The Invisible Woman: suffering is stronger than all other teaching

Intimate and intelligent, Ralph Fiennes‘ second effort as director is the story about the affair between a mid-aged Charles Dickens (Fiennes) and the young actress Nelly Ternan (Felicity Jones). Their relationship, after the first meeting (when Nelly was a new actress in Dickens’ play The Frozen Deep) grew deeply but slowly. The writer found for…
