April 15, 2010 – HBO Documentary Films has acquired domestic TV rights to MY TRIP TO AL QAEDA, a feature-length documentary directed by Academy Award winner Alex Gibney (“Taxi to the Dark Side”), it was announced today.
Interspersed with clips from Cazale’s movies and rarely seen photos and home video, I KNEW IT WAS YOU features interviews with a pantheon of Hollywood royalty, including Al Pacino, Gene Hackman, Robert De Niro, Richard Dreyfuss, Meryl Streep and Sidney Lumet, many of whom befriended and worked alongside the Massachusetts-born actor, and one of whom—Streep—fell in love with him.
"Diary of a Wimpy Kid" is the feature film adaptation of Jeff Kinney's novel of the same name. The film, directed by Thor Freudenthal and starring Zachary Gordon, is being released on March 19th by 20th Century Fox.
From its origins as a series of online cartoons, Diary of a Wimpy Kid exploded onto the pop culture scene when Jeff Kinney's first "novel in cartoons" was published in 2007. Diary of a Wimpy Kid spent almost three years on The New York Times' children's best-seller list, and was translated into 33 languages. The book captured the imaginations of an army of formerly "reluctant readers," and launched countless video reviews, social networking fan groups, and parties celebrating the release of each new Wimpy Kid book.
Benicio Del Toro, Sir Anthony Hopkins, and Emily Blunt star in "The Wolfman," a remake of the legendary classic from 1935. The film, directed by Joe Johnston, is being released by Universal on February 12.
VFX, SFX, makeup, locations and schedules were nothing when compared to the biggest challenge of the production for director Johnston. The Wolfman’s toughest obstacle was one the reader might think would be minor: perfecting the haunting howl of the title creature.
