The son of George Hamilton, stepson of Rod Stewart, former competitor on "Dancing With The Stars" and a correspondent on "Extra"....listen, we know Marvel is thrifty, but this is pretty ridiclous... But believe it or not, Ashley Hamilton -- one of People's most beautiful people in the world sometime in the '90s (hilariously, even IMDB can't be bothered to find out when) has joined "Iron Man 3" as the villain Firepower. To Wikipedia! Essentially, Firepower is another guy-in-a-metal-suit-with-weapons, the brainchild of Edwin Cord, rival businessman to the currently treehugging Tony Stark. Or depending on which storyline you're ...

There was time when the idea of writing up a story about Anthony Hopkins being caught between two sequels would've seemed laughable. But welcome to 2012, where if you want keep the lights on and maintain some profile in Hollywood, you whore your soul to Marvel or sign up for a big franchise. Anthony Hopkins seems to be between both worlds as Deadline reports the acclaimed actor is wanted by Summit to play the bad guy in their old timers action vehicle sequel "Red 2." But who doth call from yonder? It's "Thor 2"! With that film gearing ...

(Hollywood Records/Marvel Music/Universal) Lots of assembly required In the lead-up to the release of Joss Whedon’s The Avengers, I read how movies like Thor and The Incredible Hulk under-performed in Australia and consequently the powers that be at Marvel decided that they needed to market The Avengers as ‘Iron Man and friends’ so it would fulfil its potential as the money-printing machine it’s become. This approach also rings familiar with the movie’s soundtrack, Avengers Assemble, where Sou ...

Even though he scripted "American Beauty" for Sam Mendes before his two successful television shows "Six Feet Under" and "True Blood," Alan Ball has only returned to the silver screen for little-seen directorial debut "Towelhead." Last year, though, brought news that Emmy and Oscar winning writer-director (hello EGOT?) was lining up a return with a dark comedy for Paramount. While Ball has now stepped away from the director's chair for "True Blood" protégé and television vet Daniel Minahan (who came close to landing the job directing "Thor 2,") he's now found his leading lady for film in the ...

The actor will be back as Asgardian gatekeeper Heimdall

After a weekend that saw “The Avengers” continue its box office dominance, passing $1 billion worldwide, all eyes are now on Marvel Studios to see their next move, which president Kevin Feige was luckily able to shed light on recently. In an interview with Bloomberg's Carol Mauser (via Deadline), Feige spoke about the studio's future, which presently holds a total of five new films planned within the Marvel universe. “Iron Man 3,” “Thor 2,” and “Captain America 2” will all go into production next, and Feige also revealed there are two other projects as yet unannounced. "In a ...

It has been over a week since I saw The Avengers and it dawned on me that I never wrote an actual review of the film. To be honest, I was so exhausted after Hot Docs that writing another review was the furthest thing from my mind. Plus it seems that everything there is to say about The Avengers has already been said. Instead of regurgitating the same praises that critics and other blogs have already showered on The Avengers , I wanted to look at where the franchise goes from here? There will be no shortage of films coming down ...

Since he’s no longer fighting off bad guys as Thor in the hottest new movie The Avengers , it’s safe to say Chris Hemsworth has some time to let out his nurturing side.  The 28-year-old actor and his wife Elsa have just welcomed a new addition to their family … a baby girl! PHOTOS: Chris Hemsworth In OUT Magazine May 2012 Issue Chris and his wife have decided on the name India for their new bundle of joy, and shared their reason for it with USA Today .

Thoughts on Films Movie Review by Max Bowen and Ryan Spaulding Feel like the current crop of films aren’t meeting your daily requirements of explosions - with gross property damage in the billions? Are the lack of narcissistic, armor-clad playboys, giants with frightening anger management problems and alien armadas leaving you unsatisfied? I give you "Marvel’s The Avengers." Action is what carries the day in this film, though the writing team crafted a decent story with more than just mindless violence. In this case, one of the major plot points is the secrets S.H.I.E.L.D ...

CultureMap Austin : I quickly park and approach the foreboding East Austin lair, walking past Harris’ well-worn yellow truck, adorned with numerous decals and stickers, sitting on the curb (there is a small white label with the words “LIVE ANIMAL ” pasted on the driver’s side door). The intimidating and eclectic facade reminds me of something straight out of Jim Henson’s Labryinth. I try to take in the impending doom of the foreboding aesthetic, but the only thing I can focus on is the suddenly overwhelming smell of mountain laurels. Read and comment.
