The unpredictability with this filmmaker-actor is that he has got plenty of projects stoking the fire and we never know which item might push forth next. Prolific, inexhaustible, enervating and stoic with literature’s greats, James Franco‘s selected career path merits its own NYC course of its own. Franco could probably fit it in his schedule and teach it. After tending to the rabbits on Broadways’ Of Mice and Men, it’s Steinbeck follow in the footsteps of Cormac McCarthy and William Faulkner as book to film interests. Production began on In Dubious Battle at the beginning of the year. Mostly shot in Atlanta, this amassed a crew of players comprised of Analeigh Tipton, Josh Hutcherson, Selena Gomez, Bryan Cranston, Vincent D’Onofrio, Ashley Greene, Nat Wolff, Ed Harris, Duvall, Zach Braff, Austin Stowell, Keegan Allen, Darin Cooper, Ahna O’Reilly, John Savage, Beth Grant, Scott Haze and of course Franco himself.

Recently, CBS delivered the new, official synopsis/spoilers for their upcoming "NCIS: Los Angeles" episode 2 of season 13. The episode is entitled, "Personal Day," and it turns out that we're going to see some pretty interesting stuff go down as Gibbs gets a hard time about his new look from the crew. A drug-running case becomes the NCIS crew's main focus, and more. In the new, 2nd episode press release: NCIS Assists The DEA On A Drug-running Case After Gibbs Agrees To Help A Friend Who Shares A Tragic Past. Press release number 2: Gibbs will call on the team to assist DEA Agent Luis Mitchell (John Gabriel) with a case that keeps going cold, but Dinozzo is going to discover there is more to Gibbs' personal connection to the agent and his desire to help him succeed. Also, the team will gossip about Gibbs' new look after he replaces his...

Up until The Social Network (2010), when a version of this article first appeared, David Fincher was, moderately, a creature of habit when it came to casting. Certain character actors would pop up in miniature roles in more than one film though only one star was a recurring lead (Brad Pitt). Since then it's been more of a free for all with (mostly) new faces in his films.

For Gone Girl it's all new faces but for three men who you'll miss if you blink:

Darin Cooper, Brett Leigh, and Lee Norris

Brett Leigh appears as a nervous intern (he was previously a Phoenix Club hazer in The Social Network); Lee Norris, best known for "One Tree Hill" and "Boy Meets World," shows up as "Officer Washington" after a gig in Zodiac; and Darin Cooper, who played one of Facebook's lawyers in The Social Network, returns as "Moustached Man"

We hope...

*there are spoilers here. Director: Jared Cohn. Writers: Geoff Meed and Kenny Zinn. Cast: Katrina Bowden, Randy Wayne, Erin Marie Hogan, Steve Hanks, Brad Slaughter, Seth Cassell, Darin Cooper, Jordan Pratt-Thatcher and Lisa Younger. Hold Your Breath, or for those in the Twitterverse #HoldYourBreath, is remarkable for being one of the first films to premiere in theatres from production company The Asylum. As a horror film, Hold Your Breath is not truly remarkable in itself. However, the film is still a fun watch, despite some moronic characters. Is having sex in a morgue really a good idea? The film's ending stands out for offering some interesting suspense, while the film's supernatural rules ground the film in a dramatic reality. Hold Your Breath is a popcorn movie that will entertain most horror fans. The story begins with seven characters heading out on the proverbial camping trip. Johnny (Randy Wayne), Jerry (Katrina Bowden...

Welcome to Shocktober. Get it? If not, you will soon!

October is always a prime month for horror movies (what with, you know, Halloween and all), and there seems to be even more blood-soaked offerings than usual this year, with no less than nine fright fests set to hit theaters over the next 31 days.

Take a look at what tricks and treats are in store for you, including the fourth installment in the "Paranormal Activity" series, a 3-D sequel to "Silent Hill" and a return to form for Tim Burton with the animated "Frankenweenie."

When a super cyclone threatens the entire American eastern seaboard, a lone meteorologist and a petroleum engineer must battle the elements to stop the threat.

Super Cyclone is director Liz Adams' second action film for The Asylum, her first being the 5-gold-star, absolutely incredible Air Collision from Spring 2012.

Super Cyclone is out on DVD on Sept 18th, which means we can expect it to air on the SyFy Channel in the USA sometime around then, too.

You Get:

- Asian Lead Actress

- The first cyclone in California

- Snappy, dark one-liners like "Today is the day the world chose to end."

- A multi-ethnic cast of thousands (dozens)!

- Fire that roars like Godzilla!

So there is a 78% chance, statistically, that this will be as good as Air Collision.

Darin Cooper - superstar from Air Collision - is the sad Colonel Chadwick

Dr. Jenna Sparks and the Emgineer run for their lives!

Written and Directed by Liz Adams

Starring Reginald VelJohnson, Jordan Ladd, Gerald Webb, Michael Teh, Darin Cooper, Darren Anthony Thomas, Kevin Yarbrough, Erin Coker, Andy Clemence, Angelique Cinelu, Stephanie Hullar, Meredith Thomas

While it may be hard to believe that Air Collision is the best Asylum film yet in the entire history of Asylum films, you should really take my word for it.

Sporting a multi-ethnic, and large, ensemble cast involving actors playing scientists, Faa agents, commercial airplane pilots, marines, The President, The First Lady and First Daughter, and people running from falling satellites combined with some pretty good computer graphic effects of said satellites falling and airplanes ramming into buildings, Air Collision certainly *feels* like The Asylum shelled out about ten grand more than they usually do for their monster films.

Air Collision is an updated version of the classic airport disaster film plot; satellites controlled by a brand...

A passenger jet is en route towards Air Force One. First Officer Ken Aoki (Gerald Webb, Zombie Plantation) will have to avert disaster from within his small plane. Along with Flight Attendant Lindsay Bates (Jordan Ladd), Aircraft Controller Bob Abbot (Reginald VelJohnson), Captain Roscoe Simms (Michael Teh), hopefully there will not be a second disaster as well.

The disaster thriller Air Collision will have a nationwide DVD release and arrive on Video-on-demand March 27th. Released by Asylum Home Entertainment, this film is set to deliver a treasure trove of terror in the skies and screams of panic on the ground. This science fiction based experience from “Best Director” Liz Adams (“Side Effect”) is going to mortify those afraid of flying and create a fear of flying in those who are not.

This movie features Reginald VelJohnson, Jordan Ladd, Gerald Webb, Darin Cooper, Darren Anthony Thomas, Kevin Yarbrough and Dave Vescio. While some are trying to avoid a collision course with fate, others are only going to panic the passengers even more. First Officer Aoki (Webb) is trying to save the day while Eli Reyher (Vescio) is trying to ruin it.

Disaster films have excited audiences since the silent film era when Night and Ice (1912) showed the sinking of the Titanic.
