‘Beast’: Watch Idris Elba Fistfight a Vicious Lion in Trailer for New Thriller
Idris Elba finds himself the target of a murderous lion in the trailer for Beast , a new thriller hitting theaters this summer.

However, their journey quickly becomes bloody as the family and Daniels’ wildlife biologist friend (played by Sharlto Copley) come face-to-face with the massive apex predator hellbent on killing every human it encounters. “I’ve got to get my girls out of here,” he says. “I’m coming back.” The insane trailer for the movie — which is like Jaws crossed with The Ghost and the Darkness —closes with Elba’s character engaged in hand-to-paw combat with the lion, with Elba even punching the titular beast in the face. “What begins as a journey of healing jolts into a fearsome fight for survival when a lion, a survivor of blood-thirsty poachers who now sees all humans as the enemy, … [Read more...] about ‘Beast’: Watch Idris Elba Fistfight a Vicious Lion in Trailer for New Thriller

Kevin Spacey, James Franco, and More Are Trying to Make Comebacks at Cannes
From a cramped hotel suite in a luxury Cannes hotel, a pair of film executives are trying to pull off an unlikely feat: Sell distribution rights to Kevin Spacey ’s comeback film. On May 17, Vantage Media International, or VMI, a Hollywood-based company that sells movies primarily to foreign markets, screened a finished print of the noir drama Peter Five Eight to would-be buyers willing to take a gamble on the two-time Oscar winner’s first leading role since his career came to a grinding halt in 2017 amid accusations of sexual misconduct. “The feedback is very good. People say it’s a quality film,” says VMI president of sales J.D. Beuafils. “But it’s really, really early on [in the deal-making].” In a room filled with marketing materials for VMI films like Randy Rhoads: Reflections of a Guitar Icon and the Sam Worthington-Machine Gun Kelly Western The Last Son , the company’s COO Jessica Bennett offers an equally vague assessment when asked if the … [Read more...] about Kevin Spacey, James Franco, and More Are Trying to Make Comebacks at Cannes
