Pan (2015)

Despite the critical and commercial failure of the Warner Bros prequel Pan, Disney is making their own live action Peter Pan movie.

The film’s cast has issues with the movie, and the way that it has been perceived… and they are still wrestling with the truth of a difficult situation. Just ask Rooney Mara.

There are a lot of deserving actors, writers, directors, and others nominated for Academy Awards. There is also, however, a subset of those nominated for both an Oscar and a Razzie. Here are the 2016 individuals with that dubious honor.

Every year we see good movies and bad movies. Most of the time, however, we know which movies are going to be bad, and which will be good before they ever hit the theaters. But sometimes, we go in with expectations that end up not being met.

We're nearing the holidays, which means a ton of big box sets have been appearing at various retailers over the last several weeks. It's a trend that will continue in December, as The Walking Dead fans and more will see a few really cool sets hit shelves.

What has happened to all of the good villains? They certainly went missing in 2015 that's for sure.

Joe Wright’s Pan has already been deemed a domestic failure, which means Warner Bros. is pretty much banking on success at the Chinese box office to save the film – but don’t be so sure about that eventuality.

Movies have a lot of moving parts. Hundreds of people are involved in their production. However, when a movie is a hit nobody gets more credit than the director for that success. That’s only fair though, since when a movie bombs, they take the blame as well.

Following on from the flop of Pan, Warner Bros. have a new blockbuster to worry about as Tarzan is apparently in a bit of a mess. And it's all Warner Bros.' own doing.

If you think Pan had a rough weekend, then you should take a look at where the damage is estimated to land.

Bad form, Peter! Audiences had little to no interest in newcomer fantasy Pan which opened this weekend to lackluster reviews and a wince-worthy box office turn out. That left last weekend's top earner The Martian holding a tight orbit around the number one spot for a second time around.

Pan is already looking like it's going to be a costly flop for Warner Bros., which means that any hopes of it blossoming into a franchise are almost certainly already over.

Rooney Mara has admitted that there is more than enough of the story left to explore for a Pan 2, but whether or not audiences want that remains to be seen?

For the upcoming film Pan, director Joe Wright cast Caucasian actress Rooney Mara as native character Tiger Lily – and he stands by the decision.

One benefit of wildly transforming yourself for a role is that it might give an actor a level of camouflage when going out in public, and that is exactly the case with Hugh Jackman's recent trip to Disney World.

As we do with every newly released 3D film, we’ve broken down the experience watching Pan into multiple categories to determine exactly the best way to see the movie on the big screen. To 3D or not to 3D, that is the question! So read on for the answer…

It's common knowledge that Kate Mara still hasn't seen Fantastic Four. But what about her younger sister Rooney Mara?

As we creep into the fall season, we’re seeing a lot more titles start off in limited release before expanding nationwide. The unfortunate side effect, however, is that the early weeks are a bit slow around the cinematic universe. But that just means that it’s a little kid named Peter’s time to shine, with Pan getting set to arrive in theaters.

Rooney Mara really, really wants to play Lisbeth Salander in another Girl With The Dragon Tattoo film. However she believes that the sequel's chances have now actually passed.

Hugh Jackman recently released quick blooper from the production Pan, and in just a few seconds it cannot help but incite laughter.

Neverland has never looked so magical as in this Pan trailer packed with fairies and mermaids and pirates and adventure. Oh, and one really large jumping crocodile.

As we have mentioned in previous articles, Pan will be a new take on the early days of Peter (played by newcomer Levi Miller), starting in a London orphanage and following him on his journey to Neverland, where he’s hoping to reunite with his mother (Amanda Seyfried)… and fulfill a prophecy of a young savior with the ability to fly.

Already proving to be an innovative new take on the traditional story of Peter Pan, the upcoming Pan also showcases Hugh Jackman in a villainous role as a pale, white wig-sporting rendition of the famous pirate, Blackbeard. Jackman, who trades his adamantium claws for a cutlass, has personally posted an all short trailer that gives us more of the sprawling, majestic cinematic magic.

Shortly after it was announced that the star of The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo would play Tiger Lily for director Joe Wright in a Peter Pan prequel, internet outrage (whether real or imagined) erupted on the usual chats and forums. There was even a petition to get Mara replaced. The actress understood… until she met with Wright and learned about his vision.

To help explain Wright’s vision for Pan, Warner Bros. invited us to a sprawling film set on the outskirts of London, where we ate with pirates, walked the planks of huge pirate ships, waved at Hugh Jackman, and learned the following about this summer’s Pan.

Dust off your library card, and clear your schedule. If you're going to the movies for most of 2015, you've got some reading to do!

The folks over at Fandango surveyed more than 1,000 movie fans and polled them on which stars and films they’re most anticipating to see grace the screen in 2015. Naturally, Star Wars, Avengers and Hunger Games topped the film categories, and the actor lists were very much a reflection of this ranking.

The director of such lush and mesmerizing epics as Atonement, Anna Karenina and Hanna puts a unique spin on the classic work of J.M. Barrie to portray young Peter Pan (newcomer Levi Miller) as a stolen orphan snatched by the crew of Blackbeard (Jackman) and transported on a wild and colorful adventure to Neverland.

Joe Wright has been dabbling in period epics for some time now, having helmed such masterpieces as Atonement, Pride & Prejudice and Anna Karenina with Keira Knightley. On a recent set visit to the London shoot of Pan, he told us at length all the different ways that he wanted to reinterpret the fairy tale story of J.M. Barrie, and we get a hint of these changes in his approach to pirates and Peter.

2014 is evidently the summer of the Ice Bucket Challenge -- an effort to raise money and awareness for ALS -- and the trend has very clearly spread to movie sets.
