TV had the run of the place for awhile there during the pandemic. But now that vaccinations are speeding up and the weather is warming, it’s film’s time to shine. At least that’s the conclusion that can be drawn from HBO Max’s list of new releases for June 2021.
There are no real original TV series of note coming this month, which is highly unusual for HBO and HBO Max. In their place, however, are some really impressive film offerings. Major Warner Bros. titles like The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It (June 4) and Lin-Manuel Miranda’s In the Heights (June 11) both arrive this month. So too do some interesting documentaries like Revolutionary Rent on June 15 and Lfg on June 24. The former deals with the staging of the musical Rent in Cuba and the latter follows the U.S. women’s soccer team’s fight for equal pay.

This weekend Rosamund Pike (Barney’s Version), Hayley Atwell (Captain America: The First Avenger) and Alexa Davalos (Clash of the Titans) are all reading with writer/director Christopher McQuarrie for the part of leading lady in his upcoming Tom Cruise vehicle One Shot, adapted from the Lee Child (real name Jim Grant) 2005 novel of the same name. Paramount and Skydance are co-producing the film, a Jack Reacher story. [THR]
The Reacher character is a staple of Child’s resume, an ex-Army cop who, in One Shot, is sucked into the case of a sniper’s slaughter of 5 random people in the center of a heartland city. A man is arrested and accused of the crime, pleading his innocence and telling the cops to “get Jack Reacher.” Reacher, convinced the man is guilty, digs deep to prove to himself and the police that this man is the sniper.

Taylor Swift hand-picked the groom for her new video "Mine" from a film. The country sensation was struck by Brit actor Toby Hemingway as she watched his performance in "Feast of Love" - and now she gets to pretend to be his bride.
She tells People.com, "I just loved that movie and thought Toby was so great that I thought it would be perfect to put him in the video." And she knew she'd found her perfect onscreen groom when she watched another film featuring the 27 year old, which included her favorite number 13.
She adds, "I was doing some more research and watched another movie he was in, called The Covenant. I've got this crazy 13 lucky thing, and he walks on screen for the first time wearing a sweatshirt with a 13 on it! That was the deciding factor. It wasn't really up to me, it was about the number.

Nope, it was drinking the blood of goats and sacrificing garden gnomes to the great god underneath her local Ikea. Wait, not that either. It was starring in the fantasy romance The Age of Adaline. Well, now it’s just called Adaline and it has a director in Andy Tennant.Written by J Mills Goodloe and Sal Paskowitz, with recent polishing by Feast of Love’s Allison Burnett, Adaline is the story of a beautiful woman who appears young, but has actually been around a fair bit longer than her fresh-faced looks might indicate.

Alexa Davalos isn't the star of Clash of the Titans (2010), but without her, there'd be no story, nor movie. Let us explain. The big names in remake are Liam Neeson and Ralph Fiennes, who play the warring gods Zeus and Hades, and fast-rising Sam Worthington is the leading man, Perseus, but it's the quest to save the lovely princess Andromeda that prompts Perseus to take up the fight and fulfill his destiny as a hero and god. And guess who plays Andromeda. Exactly, Davalos. The actress, who was born in Paris to American parents, counts among her credits a recurring role on Angel (TV) and such films as The Chronicles of Riddick (2004), Feast of Love (2007), The Mist (2007) and Defiance (2009). We recently caught up with Davalos for an exclusive interview in which she discussed her familiarity with Greek history, transforming Andromeda into something more than a typical damsel in distress, and...

As Movieline spends so much time telling you what we made of 2009, why not occasionally cede the microphone to others in Hollywood? Actor Billy Burke is the latest to try his hand at a Fave Five -- you may know him from his role as Kristen Stewart's father in the Twilight Saga (though after seeing Feast of Love, I'll always imagine him naked and slapping around Radha Mitchell), and in addition to the upcoming installment Eclipse, he's got the lead in 2010 indies Highland Park and Luster. Still, we're getting ahead of ourselves by looking forward; before 2010 rolls around, what did Billy think were the pop culture highlights of 2009?...

Perhaps the least surprising thing about the new trailer for Valentine's Day is the final card that tells us the film will be released in February. That's going some, though, because there's absolutely nothing in the whole thing that will catch you off guard in any way. Judge for yourself, because we have it embedded below the break. Is this familiarity a crippling thing though? The movie is certainly a star studded affair and seems to have lots of comic situations and broad scope for complex romantic entanglements. Those are the generic requirements for a picture like this aren't they? Perhaps the truly clever twists and plot surprises are being kept back for when you're actually watching the film. That was certainly the case with He's Just Not That Into You, Love Actually and Feast of Love, the three films this one most closely resembles. I know that Joe Jonas...

Actress Stana Katic is on a roll. After scoring supporting roles in two of last year’s highest-profile films, Quantum of Solace and The Spirit, the statuesque Canadian stunner landed the female lead in ABC’s new police drama/romantic comedy Castle, playing Detective Kate Beckett, a tough-as-nails NYPD officer who finds herself with the regrettable assignment of allowing cocky, best-selling crime novelist Richard Castle (Nathan Fillion) to shadow her for research on his next book. Not only does she find that Castle’s creative instincts for the criminal mind help her solve some of the city’s most challenging murders, she finds her tough exterior melting under Castle’s considerable charms.

Blair Inundated With Gay Love Offers
Hollywood actress Selma Blair is regularly propositioned by lesbians because of her three on-screen girl-on-girl love scenes.
The 36-year-old, who split from her husband Ahmet Zappa in 2006, gained a massive gay following after locking lips with Sarah Michelle Gellar in 1999's Cruel Intentions.
She subsequently went on to film lesbian kissing scenes for last year's Feast of Love and for upcoming movie Driving Lessons.
And Blair is convinced that many women often confuse her for a real life lesbian, according to the New York Daily News.
She says, "I have done three girl-on-girl kisses on-screen. And, yet, I've never done any (lesbian experimentation) in my real life.
"When lesbian friends tell me they're in love with me after our friendship has been cemented, it always shocks me."...

Feast of Love
Filmmaker Robert Benton finds himself again drawn to places in the heart with Feast of Love, a tender examination of love and romance in all their ever-shifting permutations. It is based on the novel by Charles Baxter.
Set in a close-knit Oregon community, the film, with its intersecting vignettes, might ultimately feel like more of a sampler platter than a sustaining smorgasbord, but it's effectively rooted in a lovely Morgan Freeman performance.
The MGM release is aimed squarely at an older-female audience with an appetite for something other than Westerns and vigilante movies, and that timing could result in moderately attractive ticket sales.
Finding it particularly hard to make sense of this crazy little thing called love is Greg Kinnear's Bradley, a coffeehouse owner whose personal life is anything but frothy.
First, Bradley's young wife, Kathryn (Selma Blair), left him for another woman, then the real estate agent (Radha Mitchell) he has fallen for on the rebound moves in with him but has chosen not to cut off her clandestine affair with a married man (Billy Burke).
He seeks guidance from Freeman's Harry Stevenson, an on-sabbatical college professor in an enduring, deeply loving marriage to his wife, Esther (Jane Alexander), but while Harry's happy to dispense advice, inside he's still grieving about the fatal drug overdose of their only son.
Rounding out the roundelay is a budding romance between two young coffeehouse employees (Alexa Davalos, Toby Hemingway) with troubled pasts who cast fate to the wind and embark on an intense, urgent relationship.
Benton, working from a sturdy adaptation by Allison Burnett (Resurrecting the Champ), choreographs all the comings and goings through the revolving door of love with grace and fluidity, not to mention a great deal of nudity, but the results are more robust than explicit.
While things occasionally get a little soapy around the edges, the encroaching melodrama is masterfully held at bay by Freeman, whose scenes with Alexander are exceptionally moving.
The rest of the cast does uniformly good work, though Fred Ward, who plays Hemingway's knife-wielding abusive dad, has a trickier time trying to put a human face on all the looming menace.
Visually, the Feast is quite sumptuous, what with director of photography Kramer Morgenthau's (Fracture) warm tones and Missy Stewart's earthy production design -- you'd swear you could smell those freshly ground coffee beans in Kinnear's cozy shop.
Aurally, Stephen Trask's emotionally restrained score makes a nice fit with a song selection that alternates between soul-stirring (Jeff Buckley's take on Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah) to silky-smooth (Corinne Bailey Ray fronting the New Mastersounds on Your Love Is Mine).

Pair wading into 'Poole' at Lakeshore
Academy Award nominee Adriana Barraza is in advanced talks and Radha Mitchell is set to appear in Lakeshore's Henry Poole Is Here with Luke Wilson.
The Mark Pellington-directed dramedy is scheduled to go into production in the summer in Los Angeles. Lakeshore's Tom Rosenberg and Gary Lucchesi are producing.
The story, based on an original screenplay by Albert Torres, centers on a man (Wilson) who discovers that he has only six weeks to live. He leaves his job, fiancee and overbearing mother and tries to spend his remaining days in seclusion. But he goes through a miracle transformation, and his neighbors disrupt his plan.
Pellington said that he got involved with the project three years ago when it was a spec and is very happy that it is moving forward.
"It's a wonderful story about a hopeless man who finds hope," the director said. "It's really beautiful and poignant and funny and sweet. ... It really speaks to me personally."
Barraza was nominated for an Academy Award for her role in Babel. Mitchell's credits include Silent Hill and Lakeshore's upcoming Feast of Love.
Barraza is repped by Mike Packenham at Innovative Artists.

WGAW Laurel goes to Benton
Robert Benton, who has won two Academy Awards for screenwriting and one for directing, will receive the WGA West's Screen Laurel Award for career achievement.
Benton took home screenwriting and directing Oscars for 1979's Kramer vs. Kramer and a writing statuette for 1984's Places in the Heart. Also a four-time winner of WGA screenplay awards, he will be feted at the 2007 Writers Guild Awards on Feb. 11 at the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza Hotel in Century City.
"What an impressive and varied screenwriting career Robert Benton has had," WGAW president Patric Verrone said. "Yet what hasn't varied is the quality of his work and audiences' appreciation of it."
Among Benton's other screenwriting credits are Bonnie and Clyde, co-written with David Newman in 1966; Nobody's Fool (1994), which he also directed; and Billy Bathgate (1991). His next directorial effort, The Feast of Love, is slotted for August from MGM.
The Screen Laurel Award is bestowed annually on a WGAW member "who has advanced the literature of the motion picture and made outstanding contributions to the profession of the screenwriter."
Previous winners include Billy Wilder, Preston Sturges, Blake Edwards and last year's honoree, Lawrence Kasdan.
