After his appearance of Jack Reacher this Winter, Tom Cruise‘s next project from writer/director Joseph Kosinski (Tron: Legacy) casts the actor in the role of a soldier sent to a distant planet where he is ordered to destroy the remains of an alien race. Morgan Freeman, Olga Kurylenko, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Zoe Bell, and Melissa Leo also star. Oblivion opens in theaters on April 19th.
We now have our first teaser for Star Trek: Into Darkness, and, apparently, Benedict Cumberbatch is playing Bane. There’s been much hullabullo across the Internet about whether the actor is or is not playing Khan Noonien Singh in the Star Trek sequel, but the similarities to Tom Hardy‘s villain from The Dark Knight Rises in this trailer are a little hard to ignore. Whatever the name of his character, it appears Cumberbatch is Starfleet’s reckoning. Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Zoe Saldana, Karl Urban, Simon Pegg, Anton Yelchin, John Cho, and Bruce Greenwood all return. Alice Eve and Peter Weller also star. Star Trek: Into Darkness opens in theaters on May 17th.
Entertainment Weekly is sharing the first still image from 2013’s Ender’s Game starring Asa Butterfield, Abigail Breslin, Hailee Steinfeld, Harrison Ford, and Ben Kingsley. The award winning 1985 sci-fi novel by Orson Scott Card (one of my favorites) centers around a promising new recruit named Andrew “Ender” Wiggin (Butterfield) sent to an advanced Battle School in space for gifted children to prepare the next generation of military leaders 70 years after an invasion by an insect race known as “Buggers.” The film is scheduled for release November 1, 2013.
