Isabelle Huppert joins “Dead Man Down”

According to Deadline, two-time Cannes Film Festival Best Actress winner Isabelle Huppert will join Colin Farrell, Noomi Rapace, Terrence Howard and Dominic Cooper in the underworld thriller. Niels Arden Oplev, who helmed the original 2009 Swedish version of The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, is directing. The movie started filming last week in Philadelphia; Huppert begins her filming later in May. Penned by J.H. Wyman (“The Mexican,” “Fringe”), the thriller follows Victor (Farrell), who sabotages the business and picks off the men belonging to underground crime lord Alphonse Hoyt (Howard) in New York City as vengeance for the death of a family member. Along the way, Victor is seduced and blackmailed by Beatrice (Rapace), a crime victim seeking retribution. Their intense chemistry leads them to deliver to some violent retribution. Unfortunately, no word yet on Huppert’s her role.

New international trailer for “Prometheus”

A new Prometheus international trailer has surfaced, revealing more plots details about the much-anticipated Ridley Scott sci-fi ahead of its release in June. The trailer – which debuted on Channel 4 last night – gives further hints about the film’s rumoured links with the world Scott created in his groundbreaking 1979 sci-fi Alien. Be warned though: it’s not for the timid, and includes spoilers.

Noomi Rapace gets tapped as the cover star of Contributor Magazine’s spring-summer issue. In front of Magnus Magnusson’s lens, Noomi takes on androgynous looks styled by editor-in-chief Robert Rydberg. With cigarette in hand and tousled tresses by hair stylist Dejan Cekanovic, the brunette beauty exudes casual cool. Thanks to Alicia for the heads-up!

“Prometheus” interviews, press conference, more

A couple of new clips have been added to the video archive. A Sky Movies special on “Prometheus”, featuring interviews with director Ridley Scott and actors Charlize Theron, Noomi Rapace and Michael Fassbender, the Paris press conference for the film, featuring the same people :-) Then, there’s also a video interview from last year, with Guy Ritchie and Noomi discussing a scene from “Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows”.

A new picture has been added to the gallery as well, with thanks to Alicia. In Central London on April 10th 2012, a selected few from the UK film press were treated to a Prometheus 13-minute footage screening and Q&A session with Scott, Rapace, Theron, and Fassbender. The venue was filled with approximately 400 journalists who apparently left even more excited than how they first came in. More news on this can be found on the Prometheus forum.
