The PROMETHEUS viral campaign has been a great example of this, giving an insight into Peter Weyland, David 8, and now Noomi Rapace’s Dr Elizabeth Shaw. As ever, this new clip – dubbed ‘Quiet Eye’ – raises as many questions as it answers (Yutani, anyone?), but certainly succeeds in amping up the anticipation for Ridley Scott’s return to the ALIEN franchise.

Check it out below!

PROMETHEUS co stars Michael Fassbender, Idris Elba, Charlize Theron, Guy Pearce, Patrick Wilson and Sean Harris. It arrives in UK cinemas 1st June.

Shepard wrote and co-directs, alongside David Palmer, the tale of suitably named Charlie Bronson; a former career criminal who just so happens to be in witness protection. That is until he and his unknowing girlfriend are paid a visit by the man he gave evidence against and happens to owe money to. Bradley Cooper plays the dreadlocked villain in this (hopefully) fun action rom-com, expected later this year.

HIT AND RUN co-stars David Koechner, Michael Rosenbaum, Beau Bridges, Kristen Chenoweth, Ryan Hansen and Tom Arnold. Check out the films trailer, introduced by the acting married couple, below

Also in the upcoming Adult Swim rota is an animated HAROLD & KUMAR series, in a textbook example of a network knowing its audience. With John Cho and Kal Penn returning to voice the titular characters, producers will be hoping that the name recognition will turn big screen success into small screen success, a technique that failed so badly with Fox’s NAPOLEON DYNAMITE.

Ben Stiller also directs the film – his first feature since TROPIC THUNDER in 2008 – and with a cast like this, we might be forgiven for expecting nothing less than pure comedy gold from the prolific actor, producer, writer… well, he has too many previous job roles to list, but you get the idea!

THE SECRET LIFE OF WALTER MITTY is due for release in 2013.

Isabelle Fuhrman, who starred in THE HUNGER GAMES as the ruthless Clove, will take the lead role of Suzy (previously played by Jessica Harper). The rest of the main cast include Isabelle Hubbert, Janet McTeer, Antje Traue and original THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO actor Michael Nyqvist.

Filming is set to begin in September for a release later next year. What are your thoughts on the announcement, and are you happy with the talent involved in remaking a genuine classic?

Now the flame-haired beauty is set to headline DARK PLACES, a murder-mystery thriller based on the best-selling novel by Gillian Flynn. DARK PLACES will see Adams appear as Kansas-native Libby Day, who as a young girl, survived the slaughter of her family, and went on to testify against her brother as the one responsible. Years later, a secret society comes forward with proof of his innocence, leaving Libby to question her actions…and an obsession to find the truth.

DARK PLACES will be directed by Gilles Paquet-Brenner.

Now, it’s not entirely clear what we’re dealing with here. Original details told us that the film was about a group of teenagers who travel into the future – by mistake – and stumble onto a machine which helps keep people young. However, by the looks of this trailer, that has been ditched at the last stop. It now seems as if Gondry is sticking to social realism and focusing our attention on a huge group of school kids travelling home on their last day of school. Things get said, people get laughed at and emotions run high. It looks like Gondry may have created another indie hit!

The trailer has been released ahead of the films premiere at Cannes, were it will be shown in the Directors’ Fortnight section. I wouldn’t be surprised if this received some rave reviews.

These shots feature a rather sultry McAdams laced in lingerie, Rapace looking suspicious and De Palma in directorial action. Most notably, don’t miss the rather creepy snap of McAdams adorned in a white mask and -possibly- wielding a knife. Intrigued? We definitely are and, personally, I’m a big fan of both actresses… So, check out the stills for your THN pleasure below and then scroll down for the full synopsis.

Plus the poster and what to officially expect:

An erotic thriller in the tradition of “Dressed To Kill” and “Basic Instinct”, Brian de Palma’s PASSION tells the story of a deadly power struggle between two women in the dog-eat-dog world of international business. Christine possesses the natural elegance and casual ease associated with one who has a healthy relationship with money and power. Innocent, lovely and easily exploited, her admiring protégé Isabelle is full of cutting-edge ideas that Christine has no qualms about stealing. They’re on the same team, after all…

Christine takes pleasure in exercising control over the younger woman, leading her one step at a time ever deeper into a game of seduction and manipulation, dominance and humiliation. But when Isabelle falls into bed with one of Christine’s lovers, war breaks out. On the night of the murder, Isabelle is at the ballet, while Christine receives an invitation to seduction. From whom? Christine loves surprises. Naked she goes to meet the mystery lover waiting in her bedroom…

PASSION is set to be doing the film festival circuit and will also feature at the Cannes Film Festival.
