Independence Day was the film that seared the image of the White House being blown into smithereens by aliens into the American consciousness.

But it seems that the sequel could have been a very different beast, with the destruction of national monuments being swapped for peace and love, man.

Describing his original plans for the sequel, director Roland Emmerich said he and producer Dean Devlin were going to opt for a totally different sequel.

‘It was after 9/11 and Dean and I wanted to make the movie about peace, and it just didn’t work,’ Emmerich told Empire… Read the full story

They’re known to be two of the most formidable heroes in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but Logan and Professor X are looking just a little bit old and past it in the upcoming Wolverine sequel.

Photos from the film’s set show Patrick Stewart’s Charles Xavier looking pained as he sits in his wheelchair, while Hugh Jackman’s eponymous hero seems pretty desperate too.

The ravishes of time haven’t been particularly kind, with Professor X appearing a little frail, while Wolverine looked rather dishevelled – and a world away from the claw-wielding hero that we’re used to… Read the full story

Several new teasers from Paul Feig’s Ghostbusters have appeared online, confirming the return of the beloved Stay Puft Marshmallow Man.

Fans of the original 1984 movie will remember the Marshmallow Man was used for Gozer’s ‘Destructor’, and it looks like Paul Feig is paying homage with a similar giant city-rampaging softie.

The teasers also show spots from other ghosts, including some terrifying bridal skeletons and the return of the spewing green Slimer.

If you’ve seen the trailer for the remake of Disney classic Pete’s Dragon, you might notice that Elliott is looking a little different these days.

The clip released this week offered a first glimpse of just how the creature befriended by the titular Pete in the movie has changed since the 1977 original – and he couldn’t be further removed from his animated 1977 counterpart.

Because gone is the cute, cartoon, slightly goofy-looking Elliott we all know and love from that film – to be replaced by a 21st Century dragon who looks something like… Read the full story

He’s got the curly hair, he’s got the charm, he knows how to get the ladies and he’s got the moves like Jagger.

So surely Harry Styles’ latest role is perfect for him.

The former One Direction star has reportedly all but signed on the dotted line to play Mick Jagger in a brand new movie.

According to Rolling Stone, the 22-year-old is gearing up to play the Rolling Stones frontman and all-round legend in a brand new Hollywood movie based on the book Exile on Main Street: A Season in Hell with the Rolling Stones.

Guys – a third Sex And The City movie IS ON THE CARDS.

That’s right.

Samantha Jones’ alter-ego Kim Cattrall, 59, says she and the entire cast would 100% be up for third installment to the sassy New Yorkers’ lives – but they just need a good plot.

When asked about the prospect of turning SATC into a trilogy, Kim said: ‘Of course there should be a third film! I think we would all love it. I mean, what would the story be?’

A brand new trailer for Brotherhood starring Noel Clarke and grime rapper Stormzy has been revealed – and it seems like the ante has been upped significantly.

Brotherhood is the third and final instalment in the trilogy, following 2006’s Kidulthood and 2008’s Adulthood, which followed the life of Sam Peel on the streets of West London.

After Sam’s release from prison in Adulthood, the latest instalment is set to follow Sam’s emergence into the new world ahead of him, with grime artist Stormzy set to star as Yardz.

It’s been eight years since the last instalment so we’ll have to see if the film can prove its relevance in 2016, but with Stormzy on board and new music from the rapper set to feature – it could potentially give a swift rebirth to the once ‘controversial’ British drama flicks.

The film is written and directed by Noel Clarke, and… Read the full story

The full trailer for Office spin-off movie David Brent: Life On The Road has finally been released following April’s teaser.

Ricky Gervais’ monster of a boss has well and truly returned and this trailer is a cringe-a-minute, possibly even a cringe-a-second, which is no mean feat.

The trailer is getting mixed reviews on Twitter, though, so make up your own mind whether to get excited or not…

It looks like Gervais and comedian Doc Brown are the main names here, and performing with Brent’s band Foregone Conclusion to less-than-enthusiastic crowds is the main game.

You recognise them – but can you name them? It’s time to put yourself to the test to see if you’re a true Disney fanatic or just a wannabe fan.
