The November Man, actie/thriller. Pierce Brosnan is terug in deze heerlijke oldschool spionagethriller boordevol actie. Ex-CIA agent Peter Deveraux denkt in alle rust een Zwitsers hotel te runnen, maar wordt terug in het spel gebracht door een ex-collega.

Much as he did with X-Men: Days Of Future Past, Bryan Singer is letting his own voice – or rather, his fingers, given the medium – do the announcing on follow-up X-Men: Apocalypse. He’s taken to twitter to reveal that Sophie Turner, Tye Sheridan and Alexandra Shipp have all been cast in the new mutant adventure.
Mere hours after hearing from the film’s villain, Oscar Isaac about how Singer and his team will bring the character of Apocalypse to life, we now know who will be playing younger versions of three classic mutants in the 1980s-set movie.
Keeping up his current track record of hiring from the cast of Game Of Thrones after Peter Dinklage appeared in Days Of Future Past, Turner will be Jean Grey, previously played by Famke Janssen. Mud’s Sheridan is on as the new Scott Summers, AKA Cyclops, taking over the role from James Marsden, while Shipp, who most recently played Aaliyah in a TV movie biopic, will fill Halle Berry’s weather-manipulating shoes as Ororo “Storm” Munroe.
Quite how much of a role the three will have remains to be seen, since James McAvoy’s Professor Charles Xavier, Michael Fassbender’s Magneto and Jennifer Lawrence’s Mystique will still be the focus. But there’s a chance Singer is angling for the three franchise newcomers to quietly take over given that McAvoy, Fassbender and Lawrence’s contracts will be running out and they’re all in high demand, which means they’ll become expensive to keep hiring in future. Hugh Jackman has also been rumoured to crop up, because what is an X-Men film without Wolverine?

At last year’s Sundance Film Festival, Rose McGowan premiered a short film titled “Dawn,” which she directed. The short showed off her talent behind the camera, garnering some positive attention for her work. Now she will be making her feature directorial debut with psychological thriller The Pines.
The Pines was written by Alex Mar, who directed the 2010 documentary American Mystic, and follows a troubled young woman and a family of healers she becomes involved with. The film is scheduled to start shooting during the fall in upstate New York and will be produced by Sundial Pictures and Tangerine Entertainment, which is a production company focusing on films by female directors.
The news was announced on Thursday, the opening day of this year’s Sundance Film Festival.
Out via Calembour Records by early February is The Frozen Autumn's new EP "Lie in wait". Released as a 12" 45rpm picture vinyl and limited to just 500 hand-numbered copies, this maxi-single contains 3 completely unreleased tracks + a new remix of the song "Sidereal Solitude", taken from their previous album "Chirality".
In 2002, Singer Alexander Wesselsky and Noel Pix (composition/keyboard, guitar, producer), founded the industrial dark-electro rock band Eisbrecher (Icebreaker). The self-titled debut album & follow ups Antikörper, Sünde, and Die Hölle muss warte forged them a rabid fan base worldwide, along with media and chart attention. With the new album, entitled Schock, Alexx and Noel have delivered another masterpiece. Emotional, honest, forthright - Eisbrecher forges delicately brutal music without compromises. Heavy industrial guitar sounds, driving electro, and Alexx's distinctive voice are clothed in beats both modern and danceable
