seeking a friend at the end of the world, keira knightley, steve carell

If you've ever wondered what a Judd Apatow apocalypse movie would look, sound and feel like, Seeking A Friend For the End of the World, starring Steve Carell and Keira Knightley doing her best Manic Pixie Dream Girl, gives you a very good idea.

Written and directed by Lorena Scafaria, the scribe/actress who also penned Nick and Nora's Infinite Playlist, Carell plays Dodge, a taciturn, regretful dorky type who finds himself confronting the end of the world alone when his wife flees the scene. Luckily his quirky, beautiful neighbour Penny is also spending the last three weeks of existence solo, until, that is, the two misfits decide to band together to chase down unrealized dreams and those they love.

Check out the first trailer after the jump!

billy crystal, oscars, academy awards

Producers say Naomi Watts will play Princess Diana in a film about the last two years of the popular royal's life.

Britain's Ecosse Films says Caught in Flight will focus on the 24 months before her tragic death in a Paris car crash in August 1997.

The film is to be directed by Oliver Hirschbiegel, best known for Downfall, a look at Hitler's last days. The screenplay is written by Stephen Jeffreys, who penned The Libertine.

Like James Franco before him, George Clooney even before him and Clint Eastwood way, way before that, the adorable and ambitious Joseph Gordon-Levitt is joining the ranks of actor-writers-directors with news that he will lens a script he wrote and has treated himself to quite the lady love in our girl crush Scarlett Johansson. And why shouldn't he?

If we were in a position to pick and choose who we should be fake falling in love with for the purposes of sharing a story we conceived, you'd bet we'd be asking Ryan Gosling, the Pitts (both Brad AND Michael) and Jake Gyllenhaal to come in for a reading because, hey, it's MY movie and they're also GIFTED actors. (Truth).

Safe House Oscar winner Denzel Washington and Canadian superstar Ryan Reynolds join forces in director Daniel Espinosa's new edge-of-your-seat action-thriller Safe House.

The always dependable Washington plays a rouge CIA agent, who suddenly comes back onto the grid after a decade on the run. When the South African safe house he’s remanded to is set upon by a group of deadly mercenaries, a rookie operative devoid of field experience (Reynolds) is forced to escape with him. Thus kicks off the chase that sees the unlikely allies band together to stay alive long enough to uncover who wants them dead.

Get an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the intense thrill ride after the cut!

oscars, academy awards

As your trusty, resident movie experts, it only makes sense that we offer our take on who will make the long walk, or short jaunt depending on the seating chart, to the podium come February 26th's Oscar ceremony.

While it isn't even worth debating that Michel Hazanavicius' The Artist is an unstoppable accolade-gathering machine (Golden Globes, SAG Awards, Producer Guild trophies and more among its impressive haul), the acting categories aren't as much of a lock and we're giving members of the Cineplex team - Cineplex Magazine's editor Marni Weisz, dotcom producer Emma Badame and director of film programming Rob Cousins - a chance to predict the outcome of the big night.

journey 2 the mysterious island, brad peyton

Canadian director Brad Peyton went right from family fare Cats and Dogs 2: The Revenge of Kitty Galore to Hawaii but it wasn't for a vacation. He's behind the camera for Journey 2: The Mysterious Island and while it's technically the sequel to the 2008 Brendan Fraser adventure flick Journey to the Centre of the Earth, Peyton took the opportunity to make a movie that had more in common with his favourite old-school capers like Indiana Jones and The Goonies and give the franchise a reboot.

Josh Hutcherson (soon to be a household name thanks to The Hunger Games) returns to the fold but Dwayne Johnson, Vanessa Hudgens, Luis Guzman and Michael Caine join in on the fun this time around as the rag-tag bunch uncovers a mythical island.

Cineplex recently had a chance to speak with Peyton at the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto and found out why shooting on location was essential and what it's like directing Sir Michael Caine.

tilda swinton, we need to talk about kevin

Tilda Swinton has always taken risks with her career, her appearance and her personal life. They usually pay off, but few have seemed as daring as her latest role in We Need to Talk About Kevin. As Eva, a travel writer who resents being tied down by her supremely awful little boy who, as a teen, does something truly terrible, Swinton demolishes the sacred concept of maternal love.

Busting taboos is nothing new for the 51-year-old British actor; Swinton has been doing that since her early screen work for the late director Derek Jarman, often devoting herself to years of development on high-art projects such as Orlando, I Am Love and this one, the third feature by Lynne Ramsay (Ratcatcher, Morvern Callar).

Though she remains committed to the cutting edge, Swinton has enjoyed some Hollywood success in recent years, winning a Best Supporting Actress Oscar for Michael Clayton and appearing in such high-profile productions as The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Burn After Reading, Vanilla Sky and the Chronicles of Narnia series.

star wars, phantom menace, 3D

It's hard to believe it's been 13 years since venerable Scottish treasure Ewan McGregor buzzed his hair and grew that weird, wiry rat tail to play a young Obi-Wan Kenobe, wielded lightsabers with present-day action hero Liam Neeson and Darth Maul and Oscar winner Natalie Portman got all dolled up as Queen Amidala for George Lucas' prequel Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace.

This first look at the humble beginnings of Anakin Skywalker was, of course, followed by Episode II - Attack of the Clones in 2002 and Episode III - Revenge of the Sith in 2005, where homeboy Hayden Christensen played a big part in the intergalactic fable.

Now, with an added layer of movie magic, Phantom Menace will be hitting a theatre near you in 3D but it's not the only re-release catering to nostalgic viewers, and those too young or disinterested to catch it the first time around.

Find out what other 3D re-releases you can expect in 2012.
