First look: Henry Cavill as Superman!

Warner Brothers has unleashed the first official photo from Zack Snyder's upcoming Superman reboot "Man of Steel," and I have to admit, lead actor Henry Cavill looks quite badass as Clark Kent in his costume. Don't you think? See above...

The film will open June 14, 2013, and the cast includes Amy Adams as Lois Lane, Diane Lane and Kevin Costner as Martha and Jonathan Kent, Michael Shannon as General Zod and Laurence Fishburne as Perry White, leader at the Daily Planet.

Superman must face off against Zod and Faora (Antje Traue). The hero's real parents are also on board, with Russell Crowe portraying daddy Jor-El and Julia Ormond playing Lara Lor-Van. I don't know about you, but I am ready for more images.

Intense trailer for 'The Fighter' debuts

The feature trailer for David O. Russell's upcoming drama "The Fighter" has debuted online, so make sure you check it out after the jump. It's quite intense and looks strong. The film opens Dec. 10, 2010.

Inspired by a true story, the film examines the special relationship between Boston fighter Mickey Ward (Mark Wahlberg) and his brother Dicky Ecklund (Christian Bale). Amy Adams and Melissa Leo co-star.

As you can see, Bale lost a ton of weight for his role, and it's his performance I'm really looking forward to, even though I admit Wahlberg looks solid as well. All in all, I'm quite stoked about seeing this...

Disney confirms 'Enchanted' sequel is in the works

Disney's princess tale "Enchanted" moves to round two! The studio has confirmed a sequel, and Anne Fletcher ("The Proposal") is attached to direct a script Jessie Nelson ("I Am Sam") will write.

Plot details remain unknown for now, but "Enchanted 2" may hit theaters as early as next year, according to Variety. The original starred Amy Adams, James Marsden, Patrick Dempsey and Susan Sarandon.

Word is Disney may try to bring back the original cast as well. Of course, I certainly do hope at least Adams will return. She completely owned the first film, and her role obviously helped her break out as well.

I am certainly among those who really enjoyed "Enchanted," so I wouldn't mind watching a sequel, even though I believe the element of surprise is now gone. Let's hope Disney won't mess this one up.

Movie Review: “Leap Year”

Seen on: January 4, 2010

The players: Director: Anand Tucker, Writers: Deborah Kaplan, Harry Elfont, Cast: Amy Adams, Matthew Goode, Adam Scott, John Lithgow, Noel O'Donovan

Facts of interest: None.

The plot: A woman heads to Dublin to propose to her boyfriend on Leap Day, but when unexpected weather delays her plans, she asks a charming innkeeper to drive her to her final destination.

Our thoughts: Ladies and gentlemen, we have our first sucker of 2010: Anand Tucker’s overly predictable “Leap Year,” a dreadful romantic comedy that’s about as amusing as a soggy piece of toast. I generally enjoy watching both Amy Adams and Matthew Goode on the big screen, but in this train wreck, they sure look out of place.

'Leap Year' trailer shows entire movie

I'm a huge fan of trailers, but it is quite alarming how many previews these days show us an entire film. Case in point: the new trailer for Anand Tucker's upcoming romantic comedy "Leap Year."

Indeed, this one already reveals all there is to reveal (unless the movie boasts a major twist we don't see here, which i doubt), and on top of that, it doesn't even look that exciting or funny.

In "Leap Year," Amy Adams stars as a young woman who travels to Dublin to propose to her boyfriend (Adam Scott) on leap day, Feb. 29. Tradition says men have to say yes on that day.

Zach Galifianakis, Amy Adams pack for 'Town'

This sounds like quite the charming big-screen duo. Zach Galifianakis from "The Hangover" and Amy Adams are in talks to join John Carney's upcoming Fox 2000 comedy-drama "Town House."

The story, according to Variety, follows an agoraphobic man who lives in a Boston townhouse and befriends a call girl after he sees the royalties from the work of his rock star father dimish rather quickly.

Doug Wright and Carney wrote the screenplay, which is inspired by Tish Cohen's novel. Brothers Ridley and Tony Scott are on board to produced the project, which fell victim to the recent writers strike.

Movie Review: “Julie & Julia”

Seen on: August 7, 2009

The players: Director: Nora Ephron, Writer: Nora Ephron, Cast: Meryl Streep, Amy Adams, Stanley Tucci, Chris Messina, Jane Lynch

Facts of interest: Based on the books by Julie Powell and Julia Child.

The plot: Follows the stories of Julia Child, an American chef writing a cookbook in Europe; and Julie Powell, who tries to cook herself through Child's book.

Our thoughts: Nora Ephron’s “Julie & Julia” is a delightful little comedy that will feed your soul and warm your heart. Boasting a couple of terrific performances and based on two true stories, the film follows two individuals whose passions for food help them create the perfect recipe for happiness.

I'm hungry for 'G.I. Joe' action and have an appetite for 'Julie & Julia'

Friday is approaching fast, and in anticipation of this weekend's new movie releases, here are some of my final thoughts and feelings about the new flicks before they hit theaters. On the menu this week: "G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra," "Julie & Julia" and "A Perfect Getaway."

Let me start with "G.I. Joe," which will certainly storm the box office and win the race without a problem. The action flick directed by Stephen Sommers opens at a solid 4,007 locations Friday, making it quite easy for the Paramount release to take the crown.

Although I used to not be excited about "Joe," the recent positive buzz surrounding the film kind of got me interested to find out what this one is all about. Earlier this week, Paramount announced critics would not get to see the flick, a move that usually involves films that suck.
