Metallica Gets Rocking On 3D Feature Film

The members of the heavy metal band Metallica are planning to self-finance a 3D feature film, I’m told. The band has hired producer Charlotte Huggins to get the ball rolling. She has produced the 3D films Journey to the Center of the Earth, and just completed the sequel Journey 2: The Mysterious Island, which stars Dwayne Johnson, Michael Caine and Josh Hutcherson. The band’s now looking for a director with the stones to direct a Metallica-style feature. This would be the first major film made by the band members, but Metallica has already made a strong impression on the medium. Their decision to lend their music to Paradise Lost, the 1996 documentary on the West Memphis 3 that was directed by Joe Berlinger and Bruce Sinofsky, helped give that film weight and helped create international outrage over how three teens could be convicted of mass murder without a shred of physical evidence but an abundance of innuendo. Prosecutors cited the defendants’ passion for Metallica music as a strike against them, and it took 17 years for the trio to finally be freed. The band then starred for Berlinger and Sinofsky in Metallica: Some Kind of Monster, a chronicle of the band’s attempt to mend discord through intensive therapy. One can only imagine what they’re planning for their first big feature. I will tell you more as I learn it.

Sean Bean: Id Return To Bet On Thrones If Requested

First Released: October 19, 2011 4:28 PM EDT Credit: Getty Images La, Calif. -- Caption Sean Bean in the 2011 Scream Honours around the Universal Galleries lot, Hollywood, March. 15, 2011Sean Bean created a large mark on tv earlier this spring, dealing with the role of The almighty Eddard Ned Stark in Bet on Thrones, and that he would leap in the chance to return towards the series. Yeah, I loved it, he told Access Hollywood in the 2011 Scream Honours over the past weekend in La. It had been an incredible time for me personally also it would be a really ambitious project by Cinemax, and all sorts of the men involved the producers, the company directors, the stars. It had been an excellent experience, and hopefully I believe I'm in flashbacks within the books. In George R.R. Martins series, An Audio Lesson of Ice and Fire, the smallest Stark Rickon really states have experienced his father within the familys under-Winterfell tomb after King Joffrey beheaded The almighty Stark. As the time for your scene might have already passed, you will find other moments set to happen within the approaching continuation from the series (like ones with Jamie Lannister) that may open the doorway for flashbacks with Seans character. However, the actor is not prepared to request his old bosses producers David Benioff and D.B. Weiss who apparently have stated there will not be flashbacks to get it done. Ill allow them to arrived at me, he chuckled. Sean has another series within the works this time around for ABC, with co-star Ashley Judd. Ive been doing another show known as Missing in Prague and Croatia, Sean stated, from the thriller, likely to air the coming year around the network. Ive finished that now. And that he also plays Jennifer Aniston husband the King within the approaching untitled Snow Whitened project, but he accepted the 2 had little screen time together. I actually do, however i seldom saw her, he stated of barely dealing with the actress who plays the Evil Full. I simply stated hello to her, shook hands, which involved it, really. Shes an attractive lady. The untitled Snow Whitened film arrives for release on March 16, 2012. Copyright 2011 by NBC Universal, Corporation. All privileges reserved.

Shame Trailer: Michael Fassbender Battles Sex Addiction For an Oscar

For the past few weeks, Movieline’s own S.T. VanAirsdale has been listing Michael Fassbender as one of the top five front runners for next year’s Best Actor Oscar for his work in Steve McQueen’s* upcoming erotic drama Shame. Finally, a trailer for the acclaimed film has surfaced, giving evidence again for why Fassbender — who played X-Men: First Class’s Magneto — is so worthy of your crushes, why he ran away with the Best Actor Award at this year’s Venice Film Festival and why all of those early rave reviews for Shame were warranted. *Not the Steve McQueen you’re thinking of. This Steve McQueen is a British filmmaker responsible for the 2008 film Hunger. Stephanie Zacharek, who saw the film in Venice this September, set up Shame’s premise elegantly for Movieline: Fassbender plays Brandon, a successful NY professional who suffers from sexual compulsive behavior. You might call him a sex addict if that term didn’t conjure visions of David Duchovny and Charlie Sheen acting out like spoiled schoolyard kids, and what Brandon suffers is more peculiar and more painful. He has assignations with hookers; he initiates potential encounters with luscious strangers he sees on the subway; at work, he leaves his desk for the men’s room, where he relieves his urges with joyless efficiency. His boss, David (James Badge Dale), is also something of a buddy — the two troll city bars together, looking to pick up women, though the prattling David strikes out more often than he scores, while Brandon barely needs to arch an eyebrow. Even as David tries to glom onto Brandon’s subterranean attractiveness, he also seems to be finding subtle ways to register his disgust with Brandon’s beyond-healthy sex drive: Early in the movie, Brandon finds that his computer has been whisked away temporarily by the company’s tech department. He knows — and we know — why. Brandon’s world is further shaken when his jazz singer sister Sissy (Carey Mulligan) shows up, requesting a place to crash for a week or two. Her reappearance in Brandon’s life forces him to deal with his own pain and self-hatred and to wage war on his own body. The drama also stars James Badge Dale and Nicole Beharie and was filmed last spring in NY City. Fassbender last worked with McQueen on Hunger, the BAFTA-winning feature about the 1981 Irish hunger strike. Shame, which was acquired by Fox Searchlight for approximately $400,000, will work its way into U.S. theaters December 2. Read Zacharek’s full write-up here. [Guardian via CinemaBlend]

At NYFF: Is 'Shame' most likely probably the most Taboo Movie of year?

Since its much-buzzed about debut within the Venice Film Festival in August, 'Shame' is nearly the provision of great importance and discussion among Oscar cognoscenti -- though not in the way it may seem. Ultimately, there's little debate about star Michael Fassbender's lead performance inside the Steve McQueen-directed film of a sex-addicted NYer: he's towering, brilliant, heartbreaking and virtually sure to earn one of the five slots in this year's Best Actor derby. This despite playing a guy who've had an incestuous relationship along with his sister. This is when the debate will come in: after its screening within the Toronto Worldwide Film Festival in September, many experts left the film wondering if Brandon (Fassbender) had an inappropriate relationship along with his sister Sissy (Carey Mulligan). The pair use a complicated relationship: Brandon walks in on Sissy while she's bathing Sissy walks in on Brandon while he's pleasuring themselves. That is to convey nothing from the late-evening tryst Sissy has with Brandon's boss that finishes along with her getting into bed mattress along with her government hunting for a hug. (The nudity from both Fassbender and Mulligan in 'Shame' is striking, that's part of the reason it'll likely earn an NC-17 rating before its 12 ,. 2 release by Fox Searchlight.) With particulars such as this, you'd be to visualize something was up -- and within a Q&A session following a film's press screening within the NY Film Festival, McQueen wouldn't exactly shoot lower people accusations. "Clearly, they're in the women in your life -- brother and sister. Clearly, the setting has something to express of the relationship," mentioned McQueen, who formerly directed Fassbender within the breakout role in 'Hunger.' "It's among people things that's in mid-air. If you see something happening but you won't ever put your finger about it. It's as being a wet little bit of soup. It's constantly moving. You'll be able to smell however, you cannot taste it you'll be able to taste it however, you cannot smell it. It's there but it's not there. That's generate an earnings wanted to ensure that it's -- to own that history. A history pops up within our in a variety of guises. That's things i needed here." For his part, Fassbender understood the tension needed to exist between Sissy and Brandon no matter what their past record. "We sitting lower, the three people, and spoken about where this kind of person coming initially from from, where they are inside their lives, what's happened before," he mentioned. "We spoken about a good deal [regarding background]. We did some workshopping. I Rapidly also didn't desire to spend considerable time with Carey too because I useful in helping keep that element of clumsiness. A specific element of tension and unsurity. I desired to preserve that." Just before the final outcome of 'Shame,' Sissy notifies Brandon they are not bad people, they just result from a "bad place." It's the most concrete statement inside the film about its lead characters's shared history, departing everyone else to draw in its conclusions. "When people showed up in the cinema and sit lower, they're getting each of their luggage, each of their baggage each of their history for the cinema plus they are searching at people getting conversations and projecting what possibly may have happened with Sissy and Brandon," McQueen mentioned. "I desired a predicament that was familiar to each individual as opposed to a extended yarn in what happened or what may have happened." 'Shame' involves limited release on 12 ,. 2.

'Cock' comes Off Broadway

MacdonaldProducers Stuart Thompson and Jean Doumanian will take "Cock" Off Broadway, teaming with the U.K.'s Royal Court to bring scribe Mike Bartlett's London hit to Gotham in a run that opens in the spring. James Macdonald ("Top Girls," "Dying City"), who helmed the play in its 2009 London preem at the Court, returns to stage the show Stateside. Production has not yet been cast but will likely star American thesps. "Cock" reps a rare commercial endeavor for Off Broadway, the economics of which many producers deem inhospitable due to factors including the marketing domination of Broadway and the reduced potential income of smaller theaters. In a benefit to the bottom line, though, Macdonald's spare production of "Cock" features few set demands and only four actors. Attention-grabbing title may also attract ticket buyers' attention but could prove an advertising challenge in many profanity-averse publications. Doumanian ("August: Osage County") has a recent track record Off Broadway, having produced a string of outings at the Barrow Street Theater including "Our Town," "Mistakes Were Made" and the current "Cymbeline." Thompson was a producer on "Red Light Winter" at the Barrow Street in 2006. Theater, dates and full creative team for "Cock" remain to be set. Contact Gordon Cox at gordon.cox@variety.com

Mega Buzz: Who's the Boss on House, Damon-Elena on Diaries and New Girl's Party

Olivia Wilde, Nina Dobrev, Zooey Deschanel Every week, editors Adam Bryant and Natalie Abrams satisfy your need for TV scoop. Please send all questionsto mega_scoop@tvguide.com.Now that Cuddy is gone, who is going to be the new dean of medicine on House? - MelissaADAM: Like I'd tell you! I've been sworn to secrecy, but check back here after Monday's episode for a Q&A with the actor in question. In the meantime, I can tell you for sure it won't be Thirteen, who's only slated to appear in one episode this fall. "She may be back again later in the year. It all depends on a number of things," creator David Shore tells us. "But it is a goodbye."Will Elena ever admit to the chemistry she and Damon share on The Vampire Diaries? - Laura NATALIE: She may not, but her friends will certainly catch on to their budding passions. In fact, executive producer Julie Plec says that the big "elephant in the room" hasn't gone unnoticed and soon enough, "her friends and loved ones are going to be like, 'What's going on there?'"I am in love with New Girl. Got any scoop on upcoming episodes? - AlexisADAM: Jess (Zooey Deschanel) will throw the most memorable birthday party ever! (Notice we didn't say "best.") Among the calamities that will befall the festivities: the odd presence of a school bus, the even odder presence of Jess' vice principal... getting really high and perhaps the oddest of oddities: a catfight between Nick's date and a stripper who's not so physically fit. Plus: There will be cupcakes! Adorable!I love Benjamin Bratt on Private Practice now, but will this new gig prevent him from returning to Modern Family? - Rachel NATALIE: Nope. Bratt, who plays Manny's dad and Gloria's ex, will be back! In an upcoming episode, his reappearance will ignite Jay's competitive streak, says executive producer Christopher Lloyd. "Jay is surprised to learn how possessive he's become of Manny, and he's almost jealous of Javier and his influence on Manny," he says. "He always looked at Manny as a price he paid to get Gloria, but now he's finding himself the actual father to him and wanting to shape his life."When is the new captain going to ease up on Beckett on Castle? - CarrieADAM: I wouldn't expect it to be anytime soon. Nor would Penny Johnson Jerald, who insists her character isn't being grumpy, but rather teaching Beckett how to excel in the male-dominated NYPD. "I think you could really put that into a category of tough love," she tells us. "You have to better than the best because you're a woman. I think she sees a little bit of herself in Beckett. So she wants Beckett to do it by the book so that Beckett isn't the reason for her own demise."What else can you tell me about Jamie Lee Curtis' guest spot on NCIS? - JeffADAM: Sadly, I can only tell you that her two-episode arc as a single mom working for the DoD's Office of the Inspector General, originally slated to air in November, has been punted to February. "We did a little juggling of some of the storytelling," executive producer Gary Glasberg tells us. But he promises it will be worth the wait. "We are looking forward to seeing the chemistry that [Curtis and Mark Harmon's Gibbs] have together, not just from the standpoint of any kind of relationship that might happen, but just in terms of the fun that can be had," he says. "You've got two actors that absolutely know how to play off each other and I think that it's going to be pretty special."Will Deb and Quinn actually last this season on Dexter? - Mitchell NATALIE: There's a long road ahead for them, but this week's episode will definitely mark a turning point in their relationship. "They make a lot of sense together," Jennifer Carpenter tells us. "I don't think she's reluctant to commit. With Quinn, she is ready to move on with him as long as it's not going to be set in a container that couldn't hold them. She's still evolving and she knows that." When will we learn more about the new detectives on SVU? - WillyADAM: Now that we've finally met Danny Pino's character, look for the spotlight to turn back onto Kelli Giddish's Amanda Rollins when a serial rapist (T.R. Knight) she once tracked in Georgia (on Chase?) begins attacking again in NY. But her knowledge of the predator's past isn't nearly as important as the fact she's exactly his type. Blonde bait, anyone?The Walking Dead is back soon. Got any scoop? - Sarah NATALIE: Soon after the show's Oct. 16 premiere (9/8c on AMC), we'll see a flashback to the very beginning of the series, aka the day Rick got shot. In addition to getting a glimpse at the root of Lori and Rick's marital problems, we'll also witness the first spark of attraction between Lori and Shane.How long will Percy actually be behind bars on Nikita? - Jake NATALIE: Percy is already working on his escape plan, but he's going for a long con, by slowly acquiring menial luxury items - his favorite suit, a decent breakfast - that will eventually add up to a big pay day. So keep an eye on his next request.Anything you can tell me about The Closer? - ThomasADAM: Remember Phillip Stroh, the rapist/murderer/attorney played by Billy Burke that Brenda has never been able to convict? He'll cross paths with Brenda again when he defends one of her latest suspects. That same episode will introduce a new recurring Deputy D.A. who will clobber anyone who gets in her way - including Brenda. I also hear the character might be moving on to join the cast of the Closer spin-off Major Crimes.Huge Happy Endings fan here. What's coming up? ­- Derek NATALIE: Get ready for some serious jealousy issues when Max's high school girlfriend moves to Chicago. While Penny is suddenly feeling left out, Dave decides he wants to break the bro code and date her. Meanwhile, Jane and Brad have issues of their own when they take their "work spouses" out on a disastrous double date.Natalie's Mega Rave: The women have stolen the spotlight on The Big Bang Theory -and we like it! Between Amy's awkward, yet endearing friendship with Leonard - and her offhanded sexual comments toward Penny - to Bernadette's perfect impersonation of Mrs. Wolowitz this week, we almost forgot the show was about a group of geeky guys.Adam's Mini Rant: I really wanted to like American Horror Story, but it's just horrifying. And I'm not talking about how scary it is.(Additional reporting by Robyn Ross and Kate Stanhope)Crave scoop on your favorite TV shows?E-mail Adam and Natalie at mega_scoop@tvguide.comor drop us a line atTwitter.com/TVGuide
