      'Clueless' to Get Three-Day Theatrical Return for Its 25th Anniversary

      by

      Paramount Pictures

      The anniversary showings of the 1995 classic movie will include a special pre-show presentation that breaks down the film’s iconic slang that still lives on in American culture.
      Mar 9, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Hit teen film “Clueless” is returning to theatres to mark its 25th anniversary this spring.
      The classic 1995 movie, directed by Amy Heckerling and starring Alicia Silverstone, is heading back to 700 cinemas in North America for a three-day run on 3, 4 and 6 May.
      Fathom Events and Paramount Pictures have teamed up for the anniversary showings, which include a special pre-show presentation breaking down the film’s iconic slang that still lives on in American culture.
      “Whether you’re seeing it for the first or the hundredth time, ‘Clueless’ remains one of the funniest and most charming movies – while never losing its satirical bite or wonderful view of the world as it existed 25 years ago,” a Fathom Events boss said in a statement. “We couldn’t be more delighted to bring it back to the big screen if Cher herself had asked us.”
      Based on Jane Austen’s 1815 novel “Emma”, the story centers on Silverstone’s Cher Horowitz, a rich and beautiful high school student who befriends styleless new student Tai Frasier (the late Brittany Murphy) and gives her a makeover – only for Tai to become more popular than her.

      Daniel Craig Confirms 'No Time to Die' as His Last Bond Movie

      by

      Universal Pictures

      During his guest-hosting gig at ‘Saturday Night Live’, the five-time James Bond depicter pokes fun at screenwriter Phoebe Waller-Bridge and gives a ‘sneak peak’ at his delayed 007 film.
      Mar 9, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Daniel Craig has confirmed reports he won’t be back for a sixth James Bond movie.
      The actor guest hosted “Saturday Night Live” over the weekend and at the top of the show he shot down rumours suggesting he was considering one more film after the delayed release of “No Time to Die” in November.
      In his monologue at the top of the comedy sketch show, the Brit said, “This next James Bond film is going to be my last but it’s gonna be one of the best.”
      He then poked fun at screenplay writer Phoebe Waller-Bridge, suggesting the new action blockbuster will have a few nods to her hit TV drama “Fleabag”, in which she played a dysfunctional 20-something who falls in love with a priest.
      “We got Phoebe Waller-Bridge from ‘Fleabag’ to come and help with the dialogue,” he said. “It’s not gonna be that different, but every so often, I will turn to the camera and I will say, ‘The name’s Bond, James Bond… Is it bad that I fancy the Pope?'”
      He then offered up a “sneak peak” at “No Time to Die”, during which he portrayed an over-excited gambler surrounded by “SNL” castmembers.

      Later in the show, his film’s coronavirus-related delay was referenced in a joke, with “SNL” regular Colin Jost suggesting the movie should be retitled ‘Time to Die’.

      The Flash Movie May Feature Maggie Gyllenhaal as Female Joker

      by

      WENN

      The upcoming Ezra Miller-starring movie to be directed by Andy Muschietti will reportedly include the ‘Flashpoint’ storyline that introduces a female version of Batman’s villain.
      Mar 7, 2020
      AceShowbiz – The long-awaited Flash movie may feature Joker, but with a twist. Words are the upcoming film starring Ezra Miller as the Scarlet Speedster will introduce a female version of Batman’s famous supervillain.
      Fans of DC Comics may not be surprised with the twist. In the “Flashpoint” timeline, after young Bruce Wayne was killed by Joe Chill, his parents went down very different paths. While Thomas Wayne became the violent vigilante Batman, Martha Wayne lost her sanity and became the female Joker.
      We Got This Covered, which first came up with the report of the female Joker’s potential appearance in The Flash movie, additionally claims that Maggie Gyllenhaal is being eyed to play the role of Martha. “The Deuce” alum is no stranger to DC Comics universe, having starred as Rachel Dawes in “The Dark Knight”. Gyllenhaal is seemingly not the only one circling the part, but other potential contenders for the role are currently unknown.
      This, however, should be taken with a grain of salt since neither Warner Bros. nor director Andy Muschietti has confirmed floating rumors about the movie’s details. The “It” helmer, who was tapped to replace John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein as the helmer last July, once teased about the film, “What captivated me about the Flash is the human drama in it. The human feelings and emotions that play in the drama [of it]. It’s going to be fun, too. I can’t promise that there will be any horror [elements in it], really, but it’s a beautiful human story.”
      His partner and sister Barbara Muschietti reportedly joins the project as producer. WB has not announced a start date for the principal photography as Muschietti said at last year’s San Diego Comic-Con that he would take a little time off after “It Chapter Two” before working on his next project.

      'No Time to Die' Predicted to Lose Up to $50 Million for Release Date Delay

      by

      Universal Pictures

      The scheduled April dates for the U.K., U.S. and international release of the new James Bond movie have been pushed back to November because of the growing spread of coronavirus.
      Mar 7, 2020
      AceShowbiz – James Bond bosses are reportedly set to lose up to $50 million (£38 million) after pushing the release date of their latest movie “No Time to Die”.
      It was announced on Thursday (March 05) that the scheduled U.K., U.S. and international release dates in April had been pushed back until November due to the global coronavirus spread and the likelihood that the pandemic would lead to cinemas being closed or, at least, attendance being significantly reduced.
      And it’s now been reported that the delay in release could lead to a million-dollar loss for MGM, the studio behind the film.
      According to The Hollywood Reporter, MGM can expect to say goodbye to between $30 million (£22.7 million) and $50 million thanks to the postponement.
      This stems largely from a costly marketing campaign already being run, including a trailer spot at the Super Bowl which is reported to have cost $4.5 million (£3.4 million).
      However, editors at the publication insist if movie bosses hadn’t pushed the date, and went ahead with the April releases, they could have lost an estimated $300 million (£227 million) – around 30 per cent of the predicted $1 billion (£76 million) global box office intake.

      Billy Porter's Fairy Godmother Has No Gender in 'Cinderella'

      by

      Instagram

      The rags-to-riches character who is portrayed by Camila Cabello is going to have a nonbinary fairy godmother in the upcoming Disney big screen adaptation.
      Mar 6, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Billy Porter’s Fairy Godmother in the upcoming movie musical adaptation of “Cinderella” will be non-binary when it comes to gender.
      The “Pose” star will appear alongside Camila Cabello, Idina Menzel, James Corden, and Missy Elliott in the upcoming flick and, during a chat with CBS News, the 50-year-old actor confirmed his role is genderless.
      “It hit me when I was on set last week how profound it is that I am playing the fairy godmother, they call it the Fab G,” he said. “Magic has no gender. We are presenting this character as genderless, at least that’s how I’m playing it. And it’s really powerful.”
      He continued, “This is a classic, this is a classic fairytale for a new generation. I think that the new generation is really ready. The kids are ready. It’s the grownups that are slowing stuff down.”
      “Cinderella” is currently filming in London, England, and as former Fifth Harmony star Camila celebrated her 23rd birthday earlier this week, her boyfriend, Shawn Mendes, jetted to England to be with her as she marked the big day in the seaside town of Blackpool.
      The movie is expected to be released in 2021.
