Watch: One More Final Theatrical Trailer for Pixar's 'Cars 2' Arrives

"See ya at the race!" Disney has released one final theatrical trailer for Pixar's Cars 2 today on Apple. We've already seen a lot, and I mean a lot, of trailers for this movie already, but why not one more? There's more of a focus on the story in this and lots of time with/the voice of Michael Caine, who plays Finn McMissile, the secret agent spy-car that also gets rolled up in this international story with Lightning McQueen (voiced again by Owen Wilson). I'm still looking forward to this, I think it looks like a sequel that could knock the socks off the first one, and that is exactly what this series needed. Give it a view below!

Jack Black and Director Michael Winterbottom Really Need a 'Bailout'

By Ethan Anderton

Though he's kept to mostly mainstream comedies and family films like Gulliver's Travels, Kung Fu Panda and School of Rock, actor Jack Black will next team with The Killer Inside Me director Michael Winterbottom for his next project. Variety reports on the collaboration called Bailout which is actuallyan adaptation of Jess Walter's novel The Financial Lives of the Poets, and the material is certainly darker than what Black is usually accustomed to on the big screen. The story follows a down-and-out man who is jobless, crippled with debt, convinced his wife is having an affair and is weeks away from losing his home. Read on!

'In Bruges' Director and Colin Farrell Round Up 'Seven Psychopaths'

By Ethan Anderton

The two collaborated on the dark action comedy In Bruges along with Brendon Gleeson, but now writer/director Martin McDonagh and actor Colin Farrell are teaming up again for another black comedy. Variety reports the two will team-up for Seven Psychopaths, and if an In Bruges reunion isn't a sweet enough deal for you, maybe the other cast members will change your mind. Joining Farrell in the film will be Christopher Walken, Sam Rockwell and Mickey Rourke. The project is currently being shopped around at Cannes (see Alex's coverage here) like almost all other films with news this week.

Susan Sarandon & Jim Broadbent Also Join 'Cloud Atlas' Adaptation

By Ethan Anderton

Yesterday we found out that regular Wachowski sibling collaborator Hugo Weaving had joined the cast of their adaptation of David Mitchell's novel Cloud Atlas with German director Tom Tykwer. Now two more names have been added to the cast as THR reports Jim Broadbent (Moulin Rouge) and Susan Sarandon (You Don't Know Jack) will star in the centuries-spanning story that has six storylines, each set in a different place and era, stretching from the 19th century to a post-apocalyptic future. Making this sprawling adaptation even more interesting is every single member of the cast will be playing multiple roles.

Belgian Thriller 'The Loft' Being Remade with James Marsden & More

By Ethan Anderton

In a story that is sure to play out like a much more dramatic version of Clue, Variety reveals that James Marsden (Hop), Patrick Wilson, Wentworth Miller ("Prison Break") and Eric Stonestreet ("Modern Family") will all star in a remake of the 2008 Belgian thriller The Loft. A Nightmare on Elm Street remake writer Wesley Strick is behind the script which tells the story of five married friends who share a loft where each of them bring their mistresses. When the body of an unknown woman is found in the loft, they begin to suspect one another of murder. Frankly, I'm surprised this wasn't made as a stage production first.

Katie Aselton to Direct 'Black Rock' from Indie Scribe Mark Duplass

By Ethan Anderton

Though he's previously delivered indie favorites like Baghead and Cyrus, writer Mark Duplass is next delivering a film called Black Rock that is being called an all-girl thriller. The Freebie director Katie Aselton is set to be at the helm of the feature which has Kate Bosworth and Lake Bell attached to star in the story of three childhood friends who embark on a weekend getaway to the isolated island of Black Rock, only to discover that they are not alone. While it sounds like a generic thriller, coming from a writer like Duplass, I'm more than intrigued to see what his unique style on the page can bring to this kind of film.

Casting Tidbits: David Hasslehoff, Colin Firth, Orlando Bloom & More

By Ethan Anderton

This is like if that Blue Oyster shit met that Afghan Kush I had - and they had a baby. And then, meanwhile, that crazy Casting Tidbits stuff I had and the Super Red Espresso Snowflake met and had a baby. And by some miracle, those two babies met and fucked - this would the shit that they birthed. First up, if slack-jawed Gary Busey wasn't enough stunt casting for Piranha 3DD, you'll be happy to know that The Weinstein Company just announced that "Baywatch" lifeguard David Hasslehoff has also joined the cast of the tongue-in-cheek horror. Since the fish invade a waterpark this time, it's easy to see why he's needed.

Disney Launching a Label to Release More Foreign Films in the US

By Alex Billington

The Mouse House is going foreign? Yes indeed. Variety is reporting that the Walt Disney Company is looking to launch a production banner based in the US that will release Walt Disney Studios International Productions on DVD, VOD, digital download and theatrical release for certain films (case-by-case). They will find and distribute films that were "developed locally for territories such as China, Russia and India" and will brand and expand the films' "retail reach" in the US marketplace. This sounds like an interesting idea for distribution, but will they actually be able to get any interesting films? No titles have been announced.

Hugo Weaving Reteaming with Wachowski Siblings for 'Cloud Atlas'

By Ethan Anderton

After working with Andy and Lana (that's right, not Larry) Wachowski on all three installments of The Matrix franchise, the fantastic Hugo Weaving is set to re-team with the writing/directing duo again. THR reports Weaving has joined the cast of Cloud Atlas, the adaptation of David Mitchell's novel of the same name. The story spans centuries following a 19th century American notary, a poor British musician in the 1930s, a journalist in 1970s California, a vanity press publisher in the early 21st century, a rebellious clone in the near future and a primitive Hawaiian tribesman surviving after the apocalypse. Yeah, it's pretty epic.

By Alex Billington

Is your boss a slave-driving psycho? Warner Bros has debuted the official trailer via Apple for Horrible Bosses, their upcoming summer comedy that I've been hearing nothing but fantastic things about. The film is about three friends who "conspire to murder their awful bosses." Playing the underlings are: Jason Bateman, Charlie Day, Jason Sudeikis. Playing the bosses: Kevin Spacey, Jennifer Aniston, Colin Farrell. Oh and this is also the movie where Jamie Foxx plays a guy named Motherfucker Jones. Yes, this looks hilarious, it may end up rockin' the summer more than The Hangover Part II does this year. Have fun!
