      The ‘Spider-Man: Homecoming’ actor has no plan to appear in a remake of the classic movie after his face was digitally used to replace the original actor Michael J. Fox in a viral video.
      Feb 20, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Tom Holland has ruled out appearing in a remake of “Back to the Future” as it’s already a “perfect movie.”
      The 23-year-old star was the centre of a viral “deepfake” video reimagining the 1985 time-travel comedy, which used digital technology to map Holland’s face onto Michael J. Fox’s Marty McFly, and Robert Downey Jr.’s face onto Christopher Lloyd’s Doc Brown.
      While the clip sparked a resurged interest in a revival, the “Spider-Man: Homecoming” actor insisted he’s not on board with the idea.

      “I would not be interested because that is a perfect movie,” he told Entertainment Tonight.
      He went on to explain that playing the character would also be redundant when it came to his own body of work.
      “When I first got Spider-Man, my goal was to be my generation’s Marty McFly,” Holland explained. “When I was on the press tour, a journalist said to me, ‘You realise you’re like Marty McFly in this movie?’ And I was like, ‘(OK!) Done.’ ”

      Director Robert Zemeckis has previously branded talk of a remake “outrageous,” telling Britain’s The Daily Telegraph newspaper, “Oh, God no… That can’t happen until both Bob (Gale, screenwriter) and I are dead. And then I’m sure they’ll do it, unless there’s a way our estates can stop it.”
      In accordance with the contracts the pair signed, the two men have the final say on the production of any “Back to the Future”-related films for as long as they live.
      The increased interest in the franchise comes ahead of the launch of “Back to the Future: The Musical” at Manchester Opera House in the U.K. on Thursday.

      Ben Affleck Dropped Out of 'The Batman' Over Fears of Alcohol Relapse

      by

      Instagram

      The Bruce Wayne depicter in ‘Justice League’ reveals in a new interview the real reason why he stepped away from the role, saying that he was told ‘you’ll drink yourself to death’ if he did the Batman solo movie.
      Feb 19, 2020
      AceShowbiz – A year after confirming his departure from “The Batman”, Ben Affleck has explained the real reason why he dropped out of the movie. Speaking in a new interview, the 47-year-old actor reveals he made the decision out of fear that the role would mess with his commitment to staying sober after several rehab stints for his alcoholism.
      “I showed somebody ‘The Batman’ script,” Affleck, who was at one point attached to write and direct the Batman solo movie, tells the New York Times. “They said, ‘I think the script is good. I also think you’ll drink yourself to death if you go through what you just went though again.’ ”
      Affleck first starred as the Caped Crusader in 2016’s “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice”. In the same year, he made a cameo appearance in “Suicide Squad” and reprised the role in 2017’s “Justice League”.
      He stepped down as director and writer of “The Batman” in 2017, handing over the duty to Matt Reeves, but it’s not until early 2019 that he confirmed he’s done playing the Dark Knight. Reeves later cast Robert Pattinson as the young version of Bruce Wayne in his upcoming movie.
      Stopping by “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” last year, Affleck told the host that he left the project as he felt he would struggle to do the iconic comic book character justice. “I tried to direct a version of (‘Batman’), (I) worked with a really good screenwriter, but kinda just couldn’t come up with a version,” he said to Jimmy Kimmel. “Couldn’t crack it.”
      During the interview with the New York Times, Affleck also talks about his long battle with alcoholism. “The Way Back” star credits fellow Hollywood stars Bradley Cooper and Robert Downey Jr. for helping him on his journey to sobriety and adds, “One of the things about recovery that I think people sometimes overlook is the fact that it inculcates certain values. Be honest. Be accountable. Help other people. Apologize when you’re wrong.”

      David Bradley, who will portray Pinocchio’s creator Geppetto, reportedly names the two stars as his castmates in an interview with Polish outlet Na Ekranie.
      Feb 18, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Ewan McGregor and Tilda Swinton are to appear in Guillermo del Toro’s new version of “Pinocchio”, according to one of its stars, David Bradley.
      The Netflix animation, which has been in production for almost a decade, is due for release next year (2021).
      Although casting details have yet to be officially announced, “Harry Potter” star Bradley, who will play Pinocchio’s creator Geppetto, apparently let slip details of the cast in an interview with Polish outlet Na Ekranie (On the Screen).
      According to the website, Bradley says he is “involved” in the project and “you’ll be able to hear me as Geppetto” before going on to reportedly list Ewan, Tilda, Ron Perlman, and Christoph Waltz as his castmates.
      Although Disney are planning their own new version of Pinocchio, with Robert Zemeckis on board to direct, del Toro told The Hollywood Reporter he is planning a darker version of the tale, set in Fascist inter-war Italy.
      “It’s not a ‘Pinocchio’ for all the family,” he explained, adding that it was set,” during the rise of Mussolini, do the math. A puppet during the rise of fascism, yes, it is.”

      During an interview on ‘Good Morning America’, the ‘Taken’ actor spills how he made a leap from doing action films to taking on the romantic role opposite Lesley Manville.
      Feb 18, 2020
      AceShowbiz – The producers of new movie “Ordinary Love” were so keen to recruit Liam Neeson for the film they asked Bono for his help.
      Fearing the Northern Irish action man would turn down a romantic role, which was actually created with him in mind, the film bosses turned to the rocker and asked him to get the script to the “Taken” star.
      “My old pal Bono says, ‘Read this… I couldn’t stop turning the pages’,” Liam tells “Good Morning America”. “So I thought, ‘OK, I’ll read it…’, and it was true. I literally couldn’t stop.”
      Neeson teams up with revered British actress Lesley Manville for the new movie and it was a joy to work with someone he has admired for years.

      “Working with her is like taking a walk in the park,” he says.
