When Agatha Christy first published “Death on the Nile” in 1937, it was another of her successful and popular whodunits.…

Yes, perhaps we used the term ‘live-action’ to remind the House of Mouse what that actually means in the wake of such films as Jungle Book, and The Lion King. That said, Kenneth Branagh’s upcoming film adaptation of the Eoin Colfer-authored children’s adventure story dropped their first trailer today.

It’s been a Stratford second since Kenneth Branagh has done Shakespeare in film form, and Sony Classics has just bought his directorial (and starring) return to the Bard, All Is True.

In Frozen Fever, it’s Anna’s birthday and Elsa and Kristoff are determined to give her the best celebration ever, but […]

We love Kenneth Branagh.  A lot.  Whether it’s his mastery of all things Shakespeare, his take on Thor, Frankenstein, or Gilderoy Lockheart, he is a character unlike anyother.  His newest film should be interesting. A live action version of the Disney classic, Cinderella set to open in March of 2015.  Here is the first official teaser trailer for it:
