THE YOUNG VICTORIA Movie Trailer & Pictures with Emily Blunt

Check out the trailer and some pictures from THE YOUNG VICTORIA starring Emily Blunt, Rupert Friend, Paul Bettany, Miranda Richardson, Jim Broadbent, Mark Strong, Thomas Kretschmann, Harriet Walter, and directed by Jean-Marc Vallée.
The Young Victoria is part of the Gala Presentations lineup at the 2009 Toronto International Film Festival.
This sounds like the Victoria version of the movie Elizabeth. But I do like Emily Blunt and a lot of the cast as well, plus the trailer looks good. I might give it a shot.
In the meantime, if you're at the Toronto Film Festival, you'll have a chance to check it out there in September.

LEGION Movie Trailer (Red Band)

Check out the red band trailer for LEGION starring Paul Bettany, Dennis Quaid, Tyrese Gibson, Kevin Durand, Kate Walsh, Lucas Black, Willa Holland and directed by Scott Stewart.
This is the trailer that was shown at Comic Con, and while I wasn't too enthusiastic about it then, seeing it again now actually made me change my mind. I think the fact that I had totally different expectations for the movie was the reason that the trailer didn't excite me that much the first time around.
But you know what, it's pretty bad ass, and as I mentioned before it's worth going to see if only to watch Paul Bettany as the Archangel Michael coming to Earth to save humanity.
Legion will be released to theaters on January 22, 2010. Watch the trailer below.

LEGION Comic Con 2009 Panel

I was really excited to go to the Comic Con 2009 panel for LEGION, especially after seeing the poster for it earlier this week and reading about the story.
To reveal the first footage, director Scott Stewart, Doug Jones, Adrianne Palicki, Tyrese Gibson, and Paul Bettany were all in attendance.
Unfortunately, the footage didn't live up to my expectations at all. The concept sounds way better than the actual footage we saw and what seems to be the story. Instead of being a cool revolutionary Matrix-like movie with Angels fighting each other, like I would have hoped (I know I have high demands...), it pretty much looks like your regular action movie except that this time it's Angels doing the fighting. In fact, director Scott Stewart described it as a movie about "Angels with machine guns."
Now while it might have some entertainment value, I doubt that the movie will blow your mind, although I still want to see it, if only to check out Paul Bettany as the Archangel Michael coming to protect the humans.
Here are some of the highlights from the panel:
- Originally Scott Stewart got involved as a writer, which then developed into him directing.
- Adrianne Palicki revealed that her character, Charlie, is pregnant with the future of mankind and does give birth in the movie.
PRIEST Movie Poster with Paul Bettany

Check out the first poster for Paul Bettany's next movie, PRIEST, directed by Scott Stewart, which premiered at Comic Con 2009 during the Legion panel, a new movie also directed by Scott Stewart.
Priest is based on a comic book about a priest who disobeys the church to track down the vampires who kidnapped his niece. It should be released in 2010. I don't know about you but I do like the poster, although it seems that Paul Bettany is always involved in films that are somehow related to religion.
Check out the poster for Priest below.

LEGION Movie Poster with Paul Bettany from Comic Con

Check out the first poster from LEGION featuring Paul Bettany as the Archangel Michael that is being shown off at Comic Con this year (thanks to Maximum PC via FirstShowing.net).
Legion is one of the panels I was looking forward to the most this year at Comic Con and now after seeing that poster, I think that it's probably one of the movies I am looking forward to seeing the most. I am expecting the footage to be pretty amazing too. I'll hopefully have more to tell you about Legion after the panel on Friday, July 24.
In Legion, God has lost faith in mankind and sends his legion of angels to bring on the apocalypse. Humanity's only hope now lies in a group of strangers trapped in a desert diner and the Archangel Michael.
The rest of the cast includes Dennis Quaid, Tyrese Gibson, Kevin Durand, Kate Walsh, Lucas Black, Willa Holland, and Adrianne Palicki.
Legion will be released on January 22, 2010.
You can also check out the official website, which has a pretty awesome picture as well (which you can see below).

Movie Trailer: CREATION with Paul Bettany & Jennifer Connelly

Check out the trailer for CREATION starring Paul Bettany, Jennifer Connelly, Jeremy Northam, and directed by Jon Amiel.
I hadn't heard of this movie before watching the trailer, but it looks really interesting. Plus I think Paul Bettany is such an amazing actor, so I'm really looking forward to seeing him as Charles Darwin. We already get a preview of what he does with the part and it looks pretty great. Thanks for FirstShowing.net for finding the trailer.
You can also visit the official Creation website.
Creation will be released to theaters in the UK on September 25, 2009. Watch the trailer below.
Creation Synopsis: What happens when a world-renowned scientist, crushed by the loss of his eldest daughter, conceives a book which will prove the non-existence of God. This is the story of Charles Darwin and his master-work "The Origin of Species". It tells of a global revolution played out the confines of a small English village; a passionate marriage torn apart by the most dangerous idea in history; and a theory saved from extinction by the logic of a child.
Paul Bettany To Star in PRIEST

Paul Bettany is in negotiation to star in PRIEST, a new horror movie from Screen Gems based on a comic book about a priest who disobeys the church to track down the vampires who kidnapped his niece.
It's like an epidemic of vampire movies and shows lately. But it's not like I'm going to complain. And Paul Bettany as a priest fighting vampires, I think I can dig it.
