Chloe Grace Moretz drops out of The Little Mermaid and all upcoming projects
17 September 2016 6:55 AM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »
Universal and Working Title have already had to replace their director on the planned live-action adaptation of The Little Mermaid, with Rebecca Thomas (Electrick Children) taking over from Sofia Coppola (Lost in Translation), and now they will need to find a new star.
Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, actress Chloe Grace Moretz has revealed that she has pulled out of the film, along with all of her upcoming projects, as she looks to take a break from acting and focus instead on producing.
“I pulled the plug on all my movies because I want to reassess who I am and find myself within my roles again,” said Moretz. “I’m realizing that I can slow down.”
Universal’s Little Mermaid has been scripted by Richard Curtis (About Time), and is one of two live-action versions of Hans Christian Andersen’s classic tale in development, with Disney also working on an adaptation of its animated classic. »

With Star Trek Beyond making less money than its previous two movies week to week so far, and the lack of enthusiasm for the franchise’s 50 year anniversary, Oli and Luke argue that Star Trek needs a super producer in the vein of Kevin Feige or Kathleen Kennedy to properly exploit Paramount’s most under-used property.

Margot Robbie to star in Queen Of The Air

Margot Robbie is to play trapeze artist Lillian Leitzel in her next movie...
Margot Robbie, who is soaring from her performance as Harley Quinn in Suicide Squad, will take to the dizzying heights as the diminutive trapeze artist Lillian Leitzel in the film adaptation of Dean N Jensen’s 2013 book Queen Of The Air.
Letizel performed for the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus in the early 20th century. The swinging star was known for a signature move where she would dislocate her shoulder as she turned. She was the circus’ biggest star. The upcoming film from Warner Bros will focus on Leitzel’s tragic love affair with fellow circus performer Alfredo Codona. Leitzel and Codona both died within a few years of falling in love. Leitze died when her rigging snapped during a live performance in 1931. Codona died in a murder-suicide in 1937.

Star Trek Beyond continued the rebooted franchise’s string of rather rubbish villains, with Idris Elba’s Krall being one of the weakest parts of the movie.
But Oli reckons the parts are there to turn Beyond into a Heart of Darkness-style journey into Kirk’s psyche…with Krall as the story’s Colonel Kurtz.

Simon Pegg explains Carol Marcus’ absence in Star Trek Beyond
7 August 2016 4:37 AM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »
The crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise reunited last month for the third entry in Paramount’s rebooted Star Trek series, Star Trek Beyond, although their was one noticeable absentee: Kirk’s old flame Carol Marcus, played by Alice Eve in 2013’s Star Trek Into Darkness.
Speaking to io9, screenwriter and star Simon Pegg has explained why they decided not to include the character in Beyond, stating that:
“We thought rather than have Carol Marcus be not used to a reasonable capacity, let’s just not include her, have her be alive, in canon, and be ready to come back at any time… I think we had some lines to explain her absence in one of the initial drafts that had her going off to start work on the Genesis project and do sort of very, very early research on that, but it didn’t make it into the final cut. »

Star Trek Beyond crosses $160 million
1 August 2016 5:15 AM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »
The third outing for the rebooted Star Trek franchise couldn’t quite match up to Jason Bourne’s debut, and its drop off could spell trouble.
Although the film took second place in the weekend box office war, Star Trek Beyond dropped 59.9% to earn $24 million domestically – the biggest drop-off of the rebooted franchise so far. Its domestic total now sits at $105 million. Both Star Trek and Star Trek Into Darkness had hit $146 million by its second week, which could show there is declining interest in the series.
The film has opened in many of its international territories – but not China – and has a worldwide total of $160 million. Star Trek earned $385 million back in 2009, and Star Trek Into Darkness ended on $467 million.
Star Trek 4 has already been announced, but the decline in box office could mean the production won’t be given $180 million this time around.

Star Trek Beyond opens to $89 million worldwide
25 July 2016 4:53 PM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »
As Star Trek celebrates its 50th anniversary, Paramount Pictures has unleashed the third instalment of its rebooted series – and the thirteenth movie overall – with the Justin Lin-directed Star Trek Beyond enjoying a worldwide opening haul of $89.3 million.
Domestically, Beyond topped the chart with $59.3 million, which is down on the previous two instalments, with 2009’s Star Trek debuting to $75.2 million and 2013’s Star Trek Into Darkness opening with $70.2 million.
Beyond cost $185 million, so should go on to turn a small profit for the studio, which will surely be a relief for Paramount given they have already announced a fourth movie, which will see Chris Hemsworth reprising the role of George Kirk.

J.J. Abrams says Star Trek 4 is his “favourite Star Trek story that we’ve had”
22 July 2016 12:53 PM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »
Star Trek Beyond may have just opened in cinemas [read our reviews here and here], but producer J.J. Abrams is already talking up the next instalment, which Paramount officially announced last week.
Star Trek 4 will see Chris Pine’s James T. Kirk coming face-to-face with his father George Kirk, with Chris Pine reprising his role from the 2009 reboot, and Abrams has told EW that the plot for the fourth movie is his “favourite Star Trek story that we’ve had.”
“One of the reasons that I’m hoping [Star Trek Beyond] does well is so that we can, without question, get that movie made. It really is an amazing story. It’s really the reason we made the deal with Chris Hemsworth as soon as we could because we really wanted that story to be told, so fingers crossed.”

Star Trek Beyond movie review: future positive (but it won’t come easily)
21 July 2016 9:14 AM, PDT | www.flickfilosopher.com | See recent FlickFilosopher news »
Intense action; smart, funny nods to its roots while moving in a new direction; and explicit confrontation of a problem always at the heart of Star Trek. I’m “biast” (pro): totally devout Trekkie
I’m “biast” (con): nothing
(what is this about? see my critic’s minifesto)
The United Federation of Planets starship Enterprise visits a place of my science fiction dreams in Star Trek Beyond, and it is a place I didn’t even know I longed to spend time in until I saw it here: Starbase Yorktown. Forget the toy-tops-in-space that were the starbases of the 1960s TV show. This Yorktown is a gemlike sphere floating in infinity, with no up or down except as dictated by the local gravity of the many curved planes that crisscross its internal bubble: it’s those wheeled-city-in-space illustrations of the 1970s expanded into a whole artificial world, a »

J.J. Abrams says that Anton Yelchin will not be replaced for Star Trek 4
20 July 2016 2:12 PM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »
Last month, young actor Anton Yelchin tragically lost his life in a freak automobile accident, and now producer J.J. Abrams has confirmed that Yelchin won’t be replaced in the role of Chekov for the fourth Star Trek film, which was just announced yesterday.
““I would say there’s no replacing him. There’s no recasting. I can’t possibly imagine that, and I think Anton deserves better,” Abrams told Postmedia Network, before revealing that discussions are ongoing with screenwriters J.D. Payne and Patrick McKay as to how they will deal with the loss of Yelchin within the script.
Star Trek Beyond is set to open in cinemas this Friday, July 22nd, with Yelchin joined in the cast b Chris Pine as James Kirk, Zachary Quinto as Spock, Simon Pegg as Scotty, Zoë Saldana as Uhura, Karl Urban as Bones and John Cho as Sulu alongside new additions Idris Elba »

Back in May it was announced that Paramount has already started development on a fourth entry in its relaunched Star Trek franchise, despite the fact we’re still a few days away from the release of the latest chapter, Star Trek Beyond.
Naturally, there are very few details available on Star Trek 4 at present; Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto are said to be locked in for a return, and according to Scott Mantz of Access Hollywood, it seems we can add another name to that cast.
Mantz is reporting on Twitter that J.J. Abrams has confirmed that Chris Hemsworth will be reprising his role as George Kirk, the father of Pine’s James T. Kirk, having portrayed the character in the opening scenes of Abrams’ 2009 reboot.
