James Cameron akan Membuat 4 Sekuel Avatar


Sekuel Avatar
Kabar gembira datang untuk pecinta film Avatar, karena sang sutradara James Cameron akan menghadirkan 4 sekuel film ini dalam beberapa tahun ke depan. Melalui acara CinemaCon beberapa waktu lalu, Cameron menyatakan bahwa ia akan membuat film Avatar jauh lebih berkembang. Sebelum diumumkannya 4 sekuel ini, beberapa bulan lalu rumor yang berkembang menyatakan bahwa Cameron hanya akan membuat 3 sekuel untuk film Avatar.
“So far, what I am seeing in pure imagination is far beyond the first film,”
“We have decided to embark on a truly massive cinematic project, making four epic films, each of which stands alone but together forms a complete saga,”
James Cameron sendiri telah menunjukkan concept art untuk sekuel Avatar ke beberapa orang, dan setelah melihat concept art tersebut beberapa dari mereka terperangah. Selain itu, berkaitan dengan Screening Room, Cameron yang tak setuju dengan ide start-up ini menegaskan bahwa keempat sekuel Avatar akan dibuat eksklusif untuk versi layar lebar.
“Trust me, these are films that were designed to be seen in theaters and on the big screen first.”
Sebagai penyegar ingatan Avatar yang dirilis pada 2009 silam dibintangi oleh Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldana, Sigourney Weaver, Michelle Rodriguez,dan Stephen Lang. Film ini menceritakan tentang Jake Sully (Sam Worthington) seorang mantan Marinir Amerika Serikat yang kedua kakinya lumpuh. Ia kemudian terpilih untuk berpartisipasi dalam program Avatar untuk menggantikan kembarannya yang meninggal dunia. Proyek ini memungkinkannya bisa berjalan kembali. Jake kemudian dikirim menuju ke Pandora. Planet ini merupakan habitat dari suku Na’vi, makhluk yang mirip manusia dengan kehidupan primitif. Sebagai “pilot” dari program Avatar, Sully dan dekannya menyusup ke dalam kehidupan suku ini. Sully kemudian jatuh hati pada kehidupan dan pandangan hidup suku inidan juga jatuh cinta kepada seorang penduduk Na’vi bernama Neytiri. Dan dari sinilah konflik film ini berkembang. Avatar merupakan pemegang rekor all time box office untuk peredaran diseluruh dunia sampai saat ini dengan penghasilan sebesar $2 Triliun.
Avatar 2 akan dirilis pada hari Natal tahun 2018; Avatar 3 pada hari Natal tahun 2020; Avatar 4 pada hari Natal 2022; dan Avatar 5 pada hari Natal tahun 2023.

5 Aktor Villain yang Hampir Berperan Sebagai Superhero

Aktor Pemeran Karakter Villain
Beberapa tokoh superhero memang selalu melekat dengan aktor pemerannya, begitu pula dengan karakter villain. Namun tahukah anda bahwa ada beberapa aktor pemeran karakter villain yang hampir saja memerankan tokoh superhero?

Sam Rockwell


Sebelum kita mengenal Robert Downey Jr. sebagai Iron Man, ada aktor lain yang hampir saja memerankan karakter ini, yaitu Sam Rockwell. Aktor handal yang satu ini pernah digadang sebagai Iron Man, namun pada akhirnya pihak studio menunjuk Robert Downey Jr. yang dianggap lebih cocok. Hebatnya, Marvel tetap menginginkan Sam Rockwell untuk berperan dalam film Iron Man. Pihak studio kemudian merevisi ulang karakter Justin Hammer agar Rockwell bisa mengisi peran tersebut. Rockwell kemudian menerima peran ini bahkan sebelum ia membaca naskahnya.

Cillian Murphy


Aktor yang satu ini memang terkenal sering berduet dengan Christopher Nolan, Cillian Murphy. Setelah beberapa kali tampil dalam film arahan Nolan, yang terbaru Cillian Murphy juga akan terlibat dalam proyek terbaru Nolan yang berjudul Dunkirk.
Sebelum Nolan menjatuhkan pilihannya kepada Christian Bale sebagai pemeran Batman, Nolan pernah mengaudisi banyak aktor, salah satunya Murphy yang bahkan pernah mengenakan Batsuit dari film Batman Forever. Nolan kemudian merasa bahwa Murphy tak cocok untuk berperan sebagai Batman, dan kemudian mencalonkannya sebagai pemeran Scarecrow.

Leo earned his Oscar for “The Revenant” — and he might be our greatest movie star ever

“Tom Cruise,” film critic David Thomson wrote in a 2010 tribute, “is 48.  At that age, Gary Cooper had just made ‘The Fountainhead,’ Bogart had done ‘The Big Sleep,’ and Montgomery Clift … well, he was dead.”
Leonardo DiCaprio is 41, and he has done more good work than Tom Cruise had at that age. In fact, DiCaprio had done more great work by age 31, by which time he had already made “This Boy’s Life,” “What’s Eating Gilbert Grape,” “Total Eclipse,” “Romeo + Juliet,” “Titanic,” “Catch Me If You Can,” “Gangs of New York,” “The Aviator” and “The Departed.”
Now that DiCaprio has won his first Oscar on Sunday night (of five nominations) it might be time to toss this question out: Is Leonardo DiCaprio the greatest movie star ever? Has he given more excellent performances in more critical and financial hits than Clark Gable, Cary Grant, Cooper, Bogart, Jimmy Stewart, Henry Fonda, Paul Newman, Jack Nicholson, Denzel Washington … or anybody?
Before you answer that question, consider that since turning 31, you could add to DiCaprio’s film list “Blood Diamond,” “Shutter Island,” “Inception,” “The Great Gatsby,” “The Wolf of Wall Street” and, now, “The Revenant.”
Over the last 20 years, there have probably been bigger box office stars, but surely DiCaprio would have topped Cruise and Johnny Depp if he had played it safe with “Mission Impossible” or “Pirates of The Caribbean” or some other bloated and predictable franchise film.  No other star with DiCaprio’s kind of leverage has taken such enormous chances  — and scored such enormous payoffs.
In his first professional job at age 5 – or so the legend is printed  –  he was kicked off the set of “Romper Room” for being disruptive.  The next 15 years or so may seem like the inevitable arc of a gifted child star – commercials that practically made his face recognizable before high school.

Oscars fashion 2016: This year's red carpet winners – and losers

From leather and lace to bath loofah-chic, the stars surprised us with standout styles at the 2016 Oscars

The 88th Annual Academy Awards are underway in Tinseltown tonight, bringing film's finest professionals under one roof to celebrate all they've achieved.
Also present at the ceremony? One of the largest collections of beautiful, expensive, contemporary designer clothes on Earth.
Fortunately for us, few of said stars can actually get into the Oscars without cameras capturing the process – for better or for worse, depending on how they look.
Bright colours, backless gowns and embellishments galore held strong as red carpet trends at the Oscars this year, but, as always, there were standout surprises in store from some of Hollywood's heaviest hitters.
Here are some of this year's best – and worst – style choices, based on the reaction of critics, audience members, and CBC News staffers.

The winners:

Swedish actress Alicia Vikander was pegged as one to watch on the awards show circuit early this season, and the ingenue-turned-Hollywood 'it girl' has yet to disappoint with her red carpet choices. The custom Louis Vuitton gown she wore to the 2016 Oscars, combined with a chic, on-trend half-up top knot, had Twitter talking about the overall look's Beauty and the Beast vibes –  and hailing the actress for channeling her inner Disney Princess (in a good way) to accept the Best Supporting Actress award for her role in The Danish Girl.

Irish actress Saoirse Ronan turned heads and dropped jaws when she arrived to the 2016 Oscars in this sparkling green stunner by Calvin Klein. The 21-year-old star of Brooklyn told E! that she wore green (as she has in the past) to represent her home country – though her look this year was decidedly sexier than it was a few years back. As New York Times style editor Stuart Emmrich put it, "That Atonement girl is all grown up."

True style stars stay away from the tried and true, because who's there to set trends if everybody follows them? Kerry Washington opted for a modern look to present at the 88th Annual Academy Awards with this black and White Versace number comprised of leather and chiffon. "I really respect and actually admire some of the people who are not here tonight, I really get it, but for me, I felt like my voice — in my heart — my voice is best used at the table," said the actress when asked on the red carpet about boycotts over diversity at the Oscars. "As a new member of the Academy, I really want to be a part of the conversation so there is institutional change so we never have this again."

Jennifer Lawrence in Dior Haute Couture

J-Law missed her chance for a big red carpet entrance by arriving just as the show was beginning, but her style was too good for photographers to miss. The Joy actress stuck with Dior, once again, for the Oscars this year, which proved to be a solid choice – critics and casual movie fans alike are still raving over this sheer, lace gown and it's long, black feather train. This look is as fresh as her chic, platinum lob (long bob hairstyle, for the uninitiated.) Better late than never, indeed.

Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra had many on Twitter asking "who's that girl?" when she hit the red carpet in this spectacular white gown by Zuhair Murad. The "naked dress" trend may be over, but if reaction to Chopra's glam take on it is any indication, we could be seeing even more sheerness on starlets in the future. Chopra, who stars in the ABC television series Quantico, has been documenting her first-ever Oscars experience on Instagram and Twitter since arriving in Los Angeles on Saturday.
