New NAKED GUN trailer released

Liam Neeson, the gravel-voiced titan known for his particular set of skills in action thrillers, is embarking on an unexpected and highly anticipated comedic turn, stepping into the iconic shoes of Frank Drebin in Paramount Pictures’ upcoming reboot of THE NAKED GUN.

This August 1st release sees Neeson, who admits to being “a little bit nervous” about a full-length comedic role after dabbling in short TV skits, leading a new generation of absurdity. He’s joined by Paul Walter Hauser as Captain Ed and Pamela Anderson as the love interest, a role she’s already earning rave reviews for from Neeson himself, who declared, “I’m madly in love with her. She’s just terrific to work with… No huge ego. She just comes in to do the work. She’s funny and so easy to work with. She’s going to be terrific in the film.”

More than three decades have passed since the last NAKED GUN film, but the spirit of Leslie Nielsen’s Detective Frank Drebin, born from the absurd humor of the sitcom POLICE SQUAD!, lives on. This new iteration, directed by Lonely Island’s Akiva Schaffer and produced by Seth MacFarlane and Erica Huggins, promises to uphold that legacy of silly gags and laugh-out-loud moments.

Neeson’s casting, while surprising to some, feels like a stroke of comedic genius; his ability to deliver the most outlandish lines with a perfectly straight face makes him a natural fit for the deadpan humor that defined the original. Schaffer, with his impressive comedic pedigree including MACGRUBER, HOT ROD, POPSTAR: NEVER STOP NEVER STOPPING, and I THINK YOU SHOULD LEAVE, is the ideal captain for this ship of fools. The trailer alone, which features Paul Walter Hauser as Ed Hocken Jr. and Pamela Anderson delivering a standout gag by literally dragging a chair out of the room when invited to “take a chair,” has already garnered significant pre-release laughter, suggesting that even in an era of sequel and reboot fatigue, THE NAKED GUN is poised to be a much-needed comedic triumph this summer.

With other recent comedic efforts like FRIENDSHIP and ONE OF THEM DAYS hinting at a strong year for laughter, THE NAKED GUN is shaping up to be a hilarious addition to Neeson’s increasingly diverse career, proving that even a seasoned action star can find his comedic stride.

IN PROCESS: RUTH NEGGA

IN PROCESS: RUTH NEGGA

IN PROCESS: RUTH NEGGA

The recent Vanity Fair piece on Riley Keough’s IN PROCESS series is a timely reminder of the deep well of creativity thriving in Hollywood. While Keough’s exploration of artistic evolution promises to be captivating, it also begs us to turn our attention to an actress who consistently embodies the very essence of “process” through her transformative performances: the incomparable Ruth Negga. This past year, and looking ahead, Negga has solidified her position as one of the most compelling and versatile talents working today. Her choices are consistently bold, her portrayals deeply nuanced, and her impact on screen nothing short of profound.

Currently captivating audiences, Ruth Negga’s role as Barbara Sabich in Apple TV+’s PRESUMED INNOCENT is a standout. Starring opposite Jake Gyllenhaal, Negga delivers a performance that is a masterclass in controlled intensity and emotional depth. As the wife navigating the fallout of a shocking murder accusation, Negga deftly portrays the complexities of loyalty, suspicion, and personal grief. Her ability to convey so much with a subtle glance or a quiet word is a testament to her immense skill. It’s no surprise that she’s generating Emmy buzz for this role, initially even being considered for a lead submission, before shifting to supporting – a category where her impactful presence will undoubtedly be felt.

Last year, Negga showcased her range in Dan Levy’s directorial debut, GOOD GRIEF for Netflix. In this intimate exploration of loss and the enduring power of friendship, Negga, alongside Levy and Himesh Patel, navigates the messy, often contradictory emotions of grieving. Her portrayal of Sophie is grounded and deeply human, adding layers of authenticity to a story that resonates with anyone who has faced profound sorrow. It’s a testament to her ability to anchor a film with a quiet yet powerful presence.

While not strictly “recent” in the last 12 months, it’s impossible to discuss Ruth Negga’s impact without highlighting her utterly breathtaking performance as Clare Bellew in Rebecca Hall’s PASSING. This black-and-white film, exploring racial identity and self-discovery in 1920s New York, saw Negga deliver a tour-de-force. Her Golden Globe and BAFTA nominations for Best Supporting Actress, and her Independent Spirit Award win, speak volumes about the critical acclaim she garnered. Her performance was a delicate dance between vulnerability and defiance, capturing the inherent tragedy and societal pressures of her character’s existence.

The exciting news continues with Negga attached to star and executive produce the limited drama series JOSEPHINE a raw and unflinching look at the life of the legendary Jazz performer and civil rights activist Josephine Baker. This project promises to be a monumental undertaking, and there is no doubt Negga will bring her characteristic depth and power to this iconic role.

Ruth Negga doesn’t just act; she inhabits. Her commitment to her craft, her fearless exploration of complex characters, and her ability to evoke profound emotion are what truly set her apart. As we celebrate the “in process” journeys of artists like Riley Keough, let us also celebrate and champion the already accomplished and continuously evolving artistry of Ruth Negga – a true luminary of the screen whose work leaves an indelible mark.

FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH now streaming

FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH now streaming

FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH now streaming

Guy Ritchie’s latest action-adventure film for Apple TV+ takes viewers on an ambitious globe-trotting quest that feels familiar yet undeniably entertaining.

The film’s secret weapon proves to be Domhnall Gleeson as Owen Carver, the dying billionaire financing their adventures. Gleeson, whose recent career has showcased remarkable range across genres from STAR WARS to EX MACHINA to ABOUT TIME, brings nuanced complexity to what could have been a thankless role. His Carver is far more than the typical wealthy benefactor, revealing layers that keep audiences guessing about his true motivations. Gleeson navigates the character’s mysterious depths with the same intelligence and subtle humor that has made him one of the most compelling actors of his generation.

Ritchie demonstrates his mastery of action choreography throughout, particularly in standout sequences like the Lusitania rescue and an unexpectedly whimsical knife fight in the Austrian National Library. The director injects his signature humor into the relentless pacing, creating moments of levity that prevent the film from taking itself too seriously.

While FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH treads familiar ground in the treasure-hunting adventure genre, its commitment to practical locations and elaborate set-pieces creates genuine spectacle. The film embraces its streaming platform origins while delivering action sequences that would undoubtedly dazzle on the big screen. Its exotic locales and glossy production values mark it as the sort of entertaining escapism perfectly suited for Apple TV+’s growing roster of original content.

The story concludes with the inevitable hints at potential sequels, positioning itself as a potential franchise starter for the streaming service. Whether audiences will embrace another globe-trotting adventure series remains to be seen, but FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH certainly provides enough thrills and visual splendor to make the journey worthwhile. In an era of streaming content that often prioritizes quantity over spectacle, Ritchie has crafted something that genuinely feels cinematic in scope and ambition.

CAL re-released in Irish theatres

CAL re-released in theatres

CAL re-released in theatres

Pat O’Connor’s 1984 Northern Irish film CAL stands as a testament to the power of restraint in storytelling, proving that the most profound emotions often emerge from the quietest moments. Adapted by Bernard MacLaverty from his own novel, this remarkable work transcends the typical treatment of the Troubles, offering instead a deeply human meditation on guilt, love, and the impossible weight of secrets.

Helen Mirren’s Cannes-winning performance anchors the film as Marcella, a Catholic woman whose Protestant police officer husband has been murdered by the IRA. The killer’s reluctant accomplice was Cal, played with gaunt intensity by John Lynch in what would become his breakout role. This devastating irony forms the film’s emotional core: Cal, haunted by his complicity in destroying Marcella’s life, finds himself inexorably drawn to the very woman he has wronged.

The film’s genius lies in its patience. In an era of explosive action and melodrama, CAL moves with the deliberate rhythm of grief itself. Cal and his gentle father, beautifully portrayed by Donal McCann, are forced from their Protestant neighborhood by loyalist gangs, leaving them adrift in a landscape of perpetual threat. When Cal finds work at Marcella’s farm and shelter in her outbuilding, the stage is set for a romance that unfolds with almost unbearable tension.

What emerges is a love story unlike any other, where the principals don’t share so much as a kiss until more than an hour into the film. This restraint serves the story brilliantly, building an atmosphere of suppressed longing that makes every glance, every moment of proximity, electric with possibility and dread. The Protestant family members who take pity on Cal, played with exceptional skill by Ray McAnally and Catherine Gibson, add layers of complexity to what could have been a simple sectarian narrative.

O’Connor finds dark humor in the bleakest circumstances, particularly in scenes involving Cal’s manipulative friend Crilly and the local republican hardman Skeffington. A sequence where Cal reluctantly serves as getaway driver for a cinema robbery during a screening of SUPERMAN III provides both comic relief and a reminder of how ordinary people become trapped in extraordinary circumstances. The film’s attention to period detail is remarkable, from Sinn Féin posters featuring Martin McGuinness to the authentic texture of rural Irish life in the 1980s.

The countryside becomes almost a character itself, echoing the pastoral tradition of Thomas Hardy as Cal works the potato fields alongside other laborers. These sequences ground the film’s romantic elements in physical reality, suggesting that love, like farming, requires both patience and faith in uncertain outcomes. The contrast between the brutal urban violence of the Troubles and the timeless rhythms of agricultural work creates a powerful counterpoint to the central relationship.

When Mirren and Lynch finally come together, their love scene stands as a masterclass in depicting intimacy with honesty and dignity. Nothing feels exploitative or gratuitous; instead, we witness two damaged souls finding temporary solace in each other’s arms, even as the audience knows their connection is built on a foundation of terrible deception. Mirren brings to Marcella a complexity that goes far beyond the typical grieving widow, while Lynch invests Cal with a vulnerability that makes his impossible situation genuinely tragic.

The film’s lasting power comes from its refusal to offer easy answers or false hope. Cal’s love for Marcella is real and transformative, but it cannot erase his guilt or change the fundamental impossibility of their situation. This moral complexity elevates CAL above simple melodrama, creating instead a work that honors both the reality of political violence and the persistence of human connection in the face of overwhelming odds.

Nearly four decades after its original release, CAL remains a pinnacle of British and Irish cinema, a film that trusts its audience to engage with difficult emotions and moral ambiguity. Its rerelease offers contemporary viewers a chance to experience a work of rare maturity and compassion, one that finds profound beauty in the most unlikely circumstances while never minimizing the cost of violence or the weight of conscience.

CAL is in UK and Irish cinemas from 13 June.

Jamie Dornan in THE UNDERTOW

Jamie Dornan in THE UNDERTOW

Jamie Dornan in THE UNDERTOW

Jamie Dornan is stepping into his most complex role yet with Netflix’s THE UNDERTOW, a gripping crime noir that promises to showcase the full range of his dramatic capabilities. Fresh from his acclaimed performance in Kenneth Branagh’s BELFAST and his chilling turn in the BBC’s THE TOURIST, Dornan continues to distance himself from his FIFTY SHADES era, choosing projects that challenge both him and audiences with their psychological depth.

THE UNDERTOW sees Dornan taking on the demanding dual role of identical twins Adam and Lee, whose fractured relationship becomes the catalyst for a week-long nightmare of deception and buried emotions. The series, adapted from the Norwegian thriller TWIN, transplants its Nordic noir sensibilities to the rugged Scottish Highlands, where Dornan’s characters find themselves at the center of a dangerous web of secrets that threatens to destroy everyone involved.

The story begins when Lee, Adam’s long-estranged twin brother, crashes back into the life of Nicola, Adam’s wife played by Mackenzie Davis. What makes this reunion particularly volatile is the tangled romantic history between Lee and Nicola, a past that never truly died despite her loveless marriage to his brother. When a split-second decision leads to a terrible accident, Nicola is forced to protect her children at any cost, binding her fate to Lee’s in a desperate attempt to maintain their web of lies.

For Dornan, this represents another strategic move in his evolving career trajectory. Following his breakout in THE FALL, where he masterfully portrayed a serial killer with unsettling charm, and his recent work in projects like WILD MOUNTAIN THYME and BARB AND STAR GO TO VISTA DEL MAR, THE UNDERTOW allows him to explore the complexities of playing against himself. The challenge of embodying two distinct personalities while maintaining the physical similarities that make their deception possible will test every aspect of his craft.

The production, helmed by SLOW HORSES director Jeremy Lovering, brings together a impressive creative team including BRIDGERTON‘s Sarah Dollard and GANGS OF LONDON‘s Kam Odedra as part of the writing ensemble. This collaboration suggests a series that will balance the psychological thriller elements with the kind of character-driven storytelling that has defined the best of contemporary television drama.

Filming across the Scottish Highlands in May 2024 provides THE UNDERTOW with a atmospheric backdrop that mirrors the internal turmoil of its characters. The landscape becomes almost a third character in the story, its stark beauty hiding the same kinds of secrets that the twins and Nicola desperately try to keep buried. This setting choice also aligns with the Nordic noir tradition, where the environment often reflects the moral ambiguity of the characters who inhabit it.

While Netflix has yet to announce an official release date, THE UNDERTOW is expected to premiere sometime in 2025, giving Dornan another opportunity to prove that his post-FIFTY SHADES career choices represent a deliberate evolution toward more substantive, challenging material. The series arrives at a time when audiences are hungry for sophisticated thrillers that trust viewers to engage with morally complex characters and situations without easy answers.

THE UNDERTOW represents more than just another role for Dornan; it’s a statement about the kind of actor he’s become and the stories he wants to tell. By choosing to adapt a acclaimed Norwegian series rather than simply remaking American properties, the production signals an commitment to bringing international storytelling sensibilities to English-language television. For viewers seeking the kind of slow-burning psychological tension that made series like THE KILLING and BORGEN international sensations, THE UNDERTOW promises to deliver that same compelling blend of character study and crime drama, anchored by Dornan’s most ambitious performance to date.

Jim Sheridan’s RE-CREATION

“Re-Creation” Jim Sheridan

“Re-Creation” Jim Sheridan

Jim Sheridan, the Oscar-nominated director behind MY LEFT FOOT and IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER, has returned with his most provocative work yet. RE-CREATION, which premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival, places one of Ireland’s most notorious unsolved murders under an unflinching microscope.

The film centers on the 1996 killing of French filmmaker Sophie Toscan Du Plantier at her West Cork vacation home. Sheridan’s compelling approach constructs a fictional trial around Ian Bailey, the British journalist who became the prime suspect but never faced trial in Ireland, despite being convicted in absentia by French courts.

Working with co-director David Merriman, Sheridan has crafted a “fiction-reality hybrid” that drops viewers into a jury room where twelve people grapple with the case’s complexities and contradictions. The film forces audiences to confront a justice system wrestling with insufficient evidence and compromised investigations.

Vicky Krieps delivers a “remarkable and magnetic” performance as the lone holdout juror, serving as moral compass in a room where tempers flare and personal experiences with injustice surface.

Colm Meaney’s silent portrayal of Bailey dominates the film despite never speaking, reflecting how Bailey was silenced more by public opinion than any court verdict. Bailey died in January 2024, maintaining his innocence until the end.

Sheridan believes there is “not a shred of evidence” linking Bailey to the murder. The case was plagued by investigative missteps: Sophie’s body lay unexamined for more than a day, witness identifications were confused, and Bailey was reportedly coerced. Mysteriously, Bailey was called to the murder scene and arrived at the exact location of the body.

The director frames this as a “double injustice” – against Sophie, whose killer was never identified, and Bailey, who lived under suspicion without receiving a fair trial in Ireland despite his French conviction.

While reviews have been mixed, RE-CREATION succeeds in its ambitious goal. It’s not traditional entertainment but a civic exercise disguised as cinema, asking viewers to do what the Irish justice system never did – sit in judgment of the evidence and reach their own conclusions.

For Sheridan, RE-CREATION represents a return to the politically charged, morally complex storytelling that made his reputation. In an era where true crime has become binge-watching entertainment, his approach feels refreshingly serious. He’s created a film that honors both victim and accused while challenging audiences to grapple with the uncomfortable reality that justice, like truth, is often more elusive than we’d like to believe.

Domhnall Gleeson in ECHO VALLEY

Domhnall Gleeson in ECHO VALLEY

Domhnall Gleeson in ECHO VALLEY

Domhnall Gleeson continues his remarkable streak of commanding performances with ECHO VALLEY, proving once again why he remains one of cinema’s most compelling character actors. Fresh off his turn in Guy Ritchie’s FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH, Gleeson delivers a masterclass in controlled menace as Jackie Lawson, a drug dealer whose relentless pursuit of payment becomes the catalyst for an extraordinary family drama.

ECHO VALLEY centers on Kate Garretson, played with devastating authenticity by Julianne Moore, who struggles to maintain her horse farm while drowning in grief over her wife’s tragic death. When her estranged daughter Claire, a chronic addict portrayed with raw vulnerability by Sydney Sweeney, arrives desperate for money after yet another relapse, their fractured relationship becomes entangled with dangerous criminal elements. Kate’s ex-husband Richard, played by Kyle MacLachlan in a brief but impactful role, refuses to enable their daughter’s addiction, leaving Kate to navigate the treacherous waters alone.

This is where Gleeson’s Jackie enters the picture, transforming what could have been a straightforward addiction drama into something far more sinister and complex. Gleeson crafts Jackie as a predator who operates with chilling efficiency, demanding payment for missing drugs he claims Claire and Richard are responsible for. His portrayal is so viscerally unsettling that audiences will find themselves wanting to reach through the screen to confront him, the hallmark of truly exceptional villain work.

What elevates Gleeson’s performance beyond typical antagonist territory is his ability to make Jackie’s greed feel both calculated and desperate. He doesn’t play the character as a cartoon villain but as someone whose complete disregard for human cost makes him all the more terrifying. His scenes with Moore crackle with tension, creating some of the year’s most electrifying acting exchanges. These moments showcase why Gleeson has become such a sought-after performer, capable of holding his own against one of cinema’s most accomplished actresses.

The film benefits tremendously from Fiona Shaw’s presence as Kate’s friend, whose storyline provides crucial emotional grounding for the increasingly dangerous situations. Shaw, as always, commands attention in every scene, strengthening the film’s final act with her nuanced performance. Director Brad Ingelsby uses these character dynamics to subvert audience expectations, taking the story in directions that feel both surprising and inevitable.

Moore anchors the film with a performance that captures the dual nature of grief, mourning both those who have died and those we cannot save. Sweeney continues to prove her dramatic range by taking on challenging material that pushes beyond her comfort zone. But it’s Gleeson who provides the film’s dark heart, creating a character whose presence lingers long after the credits roll.

ECHO VALLEY succeeds by operating on multiple levels simultaneously, functioning as both an emotional exploration of family dysfunction and a taut thriller about ordinary people pushed beyond their limits. Gleeson’s recent career trajectory demonstrates his remarkable ability to elevate every project he touches, whether in ensemble pieces or smaller character-driven dramas like this one.

The film opens in theaters on June 6 and streams on Apple TV+ beginning June 13, offering audiences the chance to witness Gleeson’s latest tour de force performance in what promises to be one of the year’s most gripping dramas.
