Twilight director Catherine Hardwicke takes a fresh stab at the werewolf genre with Red Riding Hood, the Warner Bros. horror drama starring Amanda Seyfried, Shiloh Fernandez, Max Irons, Julie Christie, Gary Oldman, Michael Hogan, Lukas Haas and Virginia Madsen. Arriving in theaters March 11, we now got our hands on a brand new batch of leaked imagery featuring your first look at “grandma’s house”. David Leslie Johnson (Orphan) wrote the script, which is set in a village haunted by a werewolf. It is a Gothic retelling of the “Little Red Riding Hood story”, with a teenage love triangle at its center. The trailer premiered online and teased what looks like yet another Twilight-inspired dramatic thriller. I hope it goes a bit further than I suspect… (more…) READ MORE
The task of selling a film is probably much, much harder than any of us realize, which is why posters meant to stir up excitement for upcoming releases are often so badly calculated. 2010 has been no exception, with a large number of god-awful (or just plain boring) one-sheets cluttering up the lobbies of multiplexes all across the country. Here’s B-D’s list of the worst offenders from the past year. (more…) READ MORE
I’ve always been a fan of Catherine Hardwicke. I loved Thirteen, Lords of Dogtown, and I even thought Twilight was passable. But when she announced she’d be tackling Red Riding Hood for Warner Bros. Pictures, I expected her to shy away from the Twilight-esque drama and show us what she can do without Summit Entertainment producers barking in her ear. Apple.com premiered the trailer for the David Leslie Johnson (Orphan) penned story that looks like nothing more than Twilight with the lead love interest being a werewolf. Wait, that’s kind of the plot of New Moon, right? Anyways, the footage looks great, and I love Amanda Seyfried, Shiloh Fernandez and Gary Oldman, so maybe there’s something to this modern day “Little Red Riding Hood” tale arriving in theaters March 11? Check out the footage, poster premiere and synopsis inside. Tell us what YOU think. (more…) READ MORE
SyFy has released the trailer for Red, their first of many horror-themed fairy tales. Red puts a new spin on a classic fairy tale with Felicia Day (“Dr. Horrible’s Sing-A-Long Blog”, “The Guild”) starring as a modern descendant of ‘Little Red Riding Hood’ who brings her fiancé home to meet the family for him to discover that his bride-to-be’s ancestral business is hunting werewolves. When he himself gets bitten by a werewolf, “Red” is forced to try and save the wolfman she loves from her very own family. Stephen McHattie (Pontypool, A History of Violence) and Kavan Smith (“Stargate: Atlantis”, “The 4400″) co-star in the Syfy original from director Sheldon Wilson (Mothman, Screamers: The Hunting) and Syfy scribe Brook Durham (Mammoth, Showdown at Area 51).

“Battlestar Galactica” veteran Michael Hogan has joined the cast of Warner Bros.’ Red Riding Hood (formerly The Girl With the Red Riding Hood), the studio has confirmed to TheWrap. Hogan will play a mysterious character named The Reeve. Catherine Hardwicke’s supernatural thriller will be the director’s follow-up to Twilight. Amanda Seyfried stars alongside Shiloh Fernandez, Max Irons, Julie Christie and Gary Oldman. David Leslie Johnson (Orphan) wrote the script, which is set in a medieval village that is haunted by a werewolf. The story follows a young girl (Seyfried) who is engaged to be married (to Irons) but falls for an orphaned woodcutter (Fernandez), much to her family’s displeasure. Production on Red Riding Hood begins in late July. WB will release the film on April 22, 2011. (more…) READ MORE
Update: Dan Mazeau, who worked for Warners on “The Flash”, is being paired with David Leslie Johnson, writer of “The Girl with the Red Riding Hood,” the studio’s horror thriller starring Amanda Seyfried that is in pre-production, to write “Clash of the Titans 2.”” With the fake 3-D remake of Clash of the Titans nearing $500 million worldwide at the box office, Warner Bros. Pictures is fast-tracking a sequel with plans on shooting as early at January, reports the LA Times. It was already revealed that Louis Leterrier would not be returning to the director’s chair (thank the Gods (pun intended)), not the LA Times is writing that the frontrunner replacement is none other than Jonathan Liebesman, the man behind Darkness Falls, Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning and the forthcoming Battle: Los Angeles. Shooting in early 2011 is also a priority because the studio needs to make sure star Sam Worthington, who is committed to shoot Avatar 2 (likely later in the year), is free and clear. Hopefully they actually shoot it in 3-D this time (or not at all). (more…) READ MORE
Some exquisite casting news tonight as Joaquin Phoenix/Johnny Depp look-alike Shiloh Fernandez (Deadgirl, Red) has nabbed the male romantic lead in The Girl With the Red Riding Hood, Warner Bros.’ gothic horror re-imagining of the “Little Red Riding Hood” fairy tale. Catherine Hardwicke (Thirteen, Lords of Dogtown, Twilight) is directing the pic, in which Amanda Seyfried (Jennifer’s Body) will play a woman in a medieval village being terrorized by a werewolf. The studio is making sure they’re happy with their choice (and they sure as hell should be) as Fernandez is said to have screen-tested and read seven times before nabbing the role of Peter, an orphaned woodcutter for whom Seyfried falls, much to the displeasure of her family.

Warner Bros. Pictures is now in the Catherine Hardwicke business (smart move if you ask me, she’s the only thing good about Twilight) with the previously announced The Girl With the Red Riding Hood, a new werewolf movie written by David Johnson (Orphan). The gothic retelling of the “Little Red Riding Hood” story with a teenage love triangle at its center might have found its lead as the LA Times is reporting that Jennifer’s Body star Amanda Seyfried is a potential frontrunner. According to the Times, Warner Bros. needs to go into production soon if they’re going to keep Hardwicke onboard. Fingers crossed ’cause I still think she’s the real deal. (more…) READ MORE
