Tom Hiddleston to Star in Ben Wheatley’s HIGH RISE; Filming to Begin in June
The adaptation of J.G. Ballard's High Rise has been stuck in development hell for years, but last year, Kill List director Ben Wheatley signed on to become the project's latest director. The 1975 novel "takes place in a tower block, which is supposed to be a gleaming new, exciting and exotic home for its affluent residents, but ends up isolating and factionalizing them into all-out war, with the surface sophistication degenerating to primal savagery." Today, Wheatley announced on his Twitter page that production will begin in June, and the film will star Tom Hiddleston. Hit the …

Exclusive: Mondo Poster for ‘The Neon Demon’ by Jay Shaw
Today, we’re pleased to debut the Mondo poster for Nicolas Winding Refn’s The Neon Demon. For those who are unfamiliar with the director’s latest film, it follows Jesse (Elle Fanning), an aspiring model entering the ravenous modeling world of Los Angeles. Jay Shaw handled the art for this poster, and it’s absolutely stunning. It managed to walk the line between glamorous and creepy, which is what I expect Refn’s film to do as well. You’ve got to love it when the art actually delivers the tone of the movie rather than something that just …
