Emma Watson: Beautiful in Black at “The Perks of Being a Wallflower” UK Screening

  Keeping up with her hectic schedule, Emma Watson got all gussied up for the “Perks of Being a Wallflower” screening in London, England today (September 26).

  The Hermione Granger gal looked stellar in a strapless black dress teamed with a pair of black trousers as she headed inside the Mayfair Hotel to peep her new picture.

  However, Emma will definitely be turning her head at certain points in the flick, as she can’t stand seeing herself getting freaky with her costar Logan Lerman.

  Watson explained, "It's really funny because when I watch the film back, there are a few things I can't watch. I can't watch the Rocky Horror dancing scene, and I can't watch the kissing scenes.”

  "This film really pushed me out of my comfort zone. I told the director (Stephen Chbosky) that I have just come from playing Hermione Granger and you are expecting me to dance and putting me in corsets, and it's difficult."

Emma Watson Covers NYLON October 2012

  With her new movie "The Perks of Being a Wallflower" out in theaters, Emma Watson landed on the October 2012 cover of NYLON magazine.

  Joined by co-stars Logan Lerman and Ezra Miller, the 22-year-old actress playfully posed in Chanel and Tommy Hilfiger for the Guy Aroch shot front page while dishing about everything from taking on a cult classic to becoming famous.



  On her movie, "The Perks of Being a Wallflower:"
  "I feel more directly creatively involved with the whole project--you're part of a very small, passionate group of people who are trying to bring something to life. You feel like you're in a traveling circus, or a company of actors."

  On growing up in the spotlight:
  "I've done my life backwards; it's really bizarre[…] Most of my friends are just about to start working, and I've had a job for the past 10 years. It's strange, because most people spend that decade figuring themselves out and figuring out what they like and what they don't like--just making mistakes in the privacy of their own teenage bedrooms. And I am kind of doing everything in a different way, so sometimes it's a bit isolating."

  On taking on a cult classic:
  "Whatever people might think about it, whatever criticisms they have, all three of us were so vulnerable--all three of us really gave it everything we could and everything we had, and all three of us went into the movie terrified and very much aware of what this book means to people. "

“The Master” Upsets Church of Scientology

  The media has never been shy when it comes to poking fun at The Church of Scientology, and the new flick “The Master” takes the scrutiny to a new level.

  Starring Philip Seymour Hoffman, Joaquin Phoenix, Amy Adams, and Laura Dern, “The Master” is based on the story of a war veteran who creates a faith based organization along with a group of his disciples.

  An insider/former Scientologist told press that The Weinstein Company director Paul Thomas Anderson can expect static from Scientology spokespeople.

The Master


  “The Weinsteins may receive a similar letter [to the one sent to Vanity Fair] — but it will no more of a threat than the empty bleatings sent toVanity Fair. The only difference being that they won’t sue Vanity Fair because the story is true, and they won’t sue the Weinsteins because the story is not true — and you cannot defame a dead person.”

  “The organization is probably troubled by The Master because they tried to stop it and couldn’t. In my estimation — and I have not seen the movie — based on the statements of Paul Thomas Anderson, the church would have been much smarter to take him at his word — that this is a movie ‘inspired by’ events in L. Ron Hubbard’s life and use it as a springboard to promote to people the real story of the life of L. Ron Hubbard,” added the source.

  Meanwhile, star Rami Malek claimed that Scientology never came up on the set. “Paul never said anything regarding Scientology toward me throughout the film, and I spent a good deal of time with him. It was very surprising. Definitely you can see the links, but for the most part, [that story] really took over in the media.”

Kim, Kourtney & Khloe Kardashian Say “Good Morning America”

  Kim, Kourtney & Khloe Kardashian are no strangers to self-promotion, and earlier today (September 13) Kim, Kourtney Kardashian and Khloe dropped by “Good Morning America.”

  The E! reality television stars looked top-notch as they worked their magic for the shutterbugs prior to giving an energetic interview at the Times Square studios.
 
  In related news, Kim recently shot down the tabloid reports that her sister Kourtney had kicked her boyfriend Scott Disick out of their Calabasas home.

Good Morning America


  “They are better than ever. I feel bad Scott gets such a bad rap. Good thing they’re too busy being parents to pay attention to nonsense!” said the “Disaster Movie” hottie.

  An erroneous report claimed, “Despite recently welcoming their second child, a girl named Penelope Scotland, the relationship between the two remains the worst they’ve ever been. Scott is never alone with Penelope because he is so irresponsible. Kourtney doesn’t even like for him to hold [the baby] because she’s afraid he’ll drop her. He’s a 29-year-old dad with no real job and nothing to do. So he’s partying again and drinking heavily. The family is rallying around Kourtney, [as] Scott isn’t being a good role model or dad. Kris Jenner is furious that Scott’s out in public acting like a drunk. She’d rather kick him out and be done with him until he grows up.”

Jake Gyllenhaal Appears on "The Late Show with David Letterman"

  Looking a bit like Teen Wolf in his scruffy beard, shades, and slicked back hair, Jake Gyllenhaal stopped by the "Late Show with David Letterman" today (August 27).

  The "Love and Other Drugs" star wore a well-tailored navy suit with a white dress shirt and black shoes for the appearance.

Jake Gyllenhaal


  In September, you can see the 31-year-old in the cop drama "End of Watch" in which he plays Officer Taylor, who patrols the dangerous gang-ridden streets of south central L.A.

  Speaking to the Hollywood Reporter, the "Brokeback Mountain" star explained his preparation for the film. "I spent five months on the streets with, like, three sets of police officers from the sheriff’s department and from the LAPD for five months, three nights a week, from like 4 in the afternoon til 4 in the morning."

  Observation wasn't the only method of preparation however. Jake continues, "Then we did fight training -- pretty much every day with the exception of the weekend -- and then tactical training for two days a week with live ammunition. So it was a five-month, I would say, 'recruitment process,' in a way. It was very intense."

Say Goodbye to the London Olympics With the Most Emotional Moments

  After years of training, waiting, and preparing for the most prestigious athletic games in the world, it's no wonder the Olympics are an emotional affair for all the competitors. Athletes can have the highest highs and the lowest lows of their lives in a matter of seconds, and their reactions show a range of emotions not often seen outside this fierce competition.

  This year we've seen a variety of passionate expressions during some of Team USA's most memorable moments, like Gabby Douglas's gymnastics milestone, Michael Phelps's world record wipeout, and Jordyn Wieber's tearful defeat and comeback. While Fit has the breakdown of results, we can see it all on the competitors' faces.

Kristen Stewart: Backing Out of "Cali" Role?

  In the wake of her infamous cheating scandal, it sounds as though Kristen Stewart may be calling it quits on one of her upcoming projects.

  According to breaking reports, it has been explained that the "Twilight" actress has dropped out of her role in "Cali" - a film she was not only set to star in, but also produce.

Kristen Stewart


  As a replacement, it has been rumored that Amber Heard has been offered the part, but, at this time, there's been no comment by reps for the "Rum Diaries" darling as ton whether or not she'll be taking on the project.

  Aside from the fact that Kristen's camp could not be reached for a comment, Voltage Productions (who are behind the film) declined to comment on details - though they did say that there will be an announcement of some sort made in the near future.

  The Nick Cassavetes directed flick follows two lovers, Mya and Chris, who decide to return to Los Angeles to save a loved one from a group of unsavory characters. These events all come after Mya previously fled the area years before when she disappeared with cash she took from the production of a snuff film.

"The Great Gatsby" Release Pushed Back to Summer 2013

  Fans of the F. Scott Fitzgerald classic "The Great Gatsby" will have to wait a little longer to see the new film adaptation come to light. Warner Brothers announced today that the movie will be pushed from the original Christmas 2012 release date to summer of 2013.

The Great Gatsby

 
  Despite the delay, the production company assures fans of the roaring twenties novel that it will be worth the wait.

  His statements are reinforced by Veronika Kwan Vandenberg, president of international distribution, who said, "With this film [Baz] has done something completely unexpected—making it in 3D—while capturing the emotion, the intimacy, the power and the spectacle of the time. The responses we've had to some of the early sneak peeks have been phenomenal.The Great Gatsby' will be the perfect summer movie around the world."

"The Hobbit" Officially Announces Three-Part Film Plans



  Sending Middle-Earth fans into a frenzy, Peter Jackson has confirmed "The Hobbit" has officially become a trilogy after announcing on Monday (July 30) plans for a third film instead of the originally scheduled two.

  Sharing the news through his facebook page, the franchise's director explained, "We know how much of the story of Bilbo Baggins, the Wizard Gandalf, the Dwarves of Erebor, the rise of the Necromancer, and the Battle of Dol Guldur will remain untold if we do not take this chance."

  The epic fantasy-adventure tale will begin this December when the first installment titled "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" opens with the follow-up film dubbed "The Hobbit: There and Back Again" due in December 2013.


  Now, the pair of highly-anticipated flicks will be capped off by a third motion picture which is expected to hit theaters sometime in Summer 2014.

  Check out Peter Jackson’s announcement in it's entirety below:

  "It is only at the end of a shoot that you finally get the chance to sit down and have a look at the film you have made. Recently Fran, Phil and I did just this when we watched for the first time an early cut of the first movie – and a large chunk of the second. We were really pleased with the way the story was coming together, in particular, the strength of the characters and the cast who have brought them to life. All of which gave rise to a simple question: do we take this chance to tell more of the tale? And the answer from our perspective as the filmmakers, and as fans, was an unreserved ‘yes.’

  We know how much of the story of Bilbo Baggins, the Wizard Gandalf, the Dwarves of Erebor, the rise of the Necromancer, and the Battle of Dol Guldur will remain untold if we do not take this chance. The richness of the story of The Hobbit, as well as some of the related material in the appendices of The Lord of the Rings, allows us to tell the full story of the adventures of Bilbo Baggins and the part he played in the sometimes dangerous, but at all times exciting, history of Middle-earth.

  So, without further ado and on behalf of New Line Cinema, Warner Bros. Pictures, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, Wingnut Films, and the entire cast and crew of “The Hobbit” films, I’d like to announce that two films will become three.

   It has been an unexpected journey indeed, and in the words of Professor Tolkien himself, ”a tale that grew in the telling.”

Robert Pattinson Reveals a Big ‘Breaking Dawn’ Secret

  Robert Pattinson is almost as known for his iconic locks as for playing heartthrob vampire Edward Cullen in the Twilight saga. But fans of the thrillers may notice something slightly out of place with his vampire alter ego’s trademark mane in the final chapter of the series.

Robert Pattinson


  “We had to do the re-shoots on [Breaking Dawn -- Part 2] a few weeks ago, and it was the first time I had to wear a wig,” Pattinson told fans last week at a San Diego Comic-Con panel for the film. “I couldn’t believe my last two days on Twilight they put this orange wig on my hair.”

  The hairpiece, which Pattinson described as being “like Frankenstein’s monster” and “an amalgamation of six [different] wigs,” practically had the actor pulling his hair out.

  So when asked what he would warn his younger self about if he had the opportunity to go back in time to the first Twilight film, Pattinson’s answer was clear. He joked, “Don’t succumb to peer pressure and start wearing a wig like everybody else in this cast.” Tell us: Are you excited for the final Twilight film?

“Oz The Great and Powerful” Behind-The-Scenes

  It doesn’t come out until March 8th, 2013 and already “Oz The Great and Powerful” is generating tons of industry buzz.

  A new behind-the-scenes video features interviews with the film’s stars James Franco and Mila Kunis as well as a look at the movie’s aesthetic.

  “Oz The Great and Powerful” is directed by Sam Raimi and imagines the origins of the much-loved central character from the ever popular “The Wizard of Oz.” 
  Per the synopsis, “When Oscar Diggs, a small-time circus magician with dubious ethics, is hurled away from dusty Kansas to the vibrant Land of Oz, he thinks he's hit the jackpot--fame and fortune are his for the taking--that is until he meets three witches, Theodora, Evanora and Glinda, who are not convinced he is the great wizard everyone's been expecting. Reluctantly drawn into the epic problems facing the Land of Oz and its inhabitants, Oscar must find out who is good and who is evil before it is too late. Putting his magical arts to use through illusion, ingenuity--and even a bit of wizardry--Oscar transforms himself not only into the great and powerful Wizard of Oz but into a better man as well.”

And then it dawns on you: There are kids that are never going to buy a record. They're just going to play songs on YouTube."

The Amazing Spider-Man is an inspired take on the comic book

  Much like it's titular hero, The Amazing Spider-Man has had to overcome a lot; cynics argued that it was too soon to start over with a new cast, especially in light of the record-breaking success of the original Spider-Man movies. Director Marc Webb promised us that his iteration would be different, and he does his best to inject freshness everywhere he can: Peter Parker has a new(ish) personality, a new girlfriend, and a new villain to tackle. Despite all these tweaks, this reboot of the Spidey franchise still feels like something we've seen before. That said, The Amazing Spider-Man is an inspired take on the comic book that will please fans of the Spider-Man story, and Andrew Garfield proves he can carry the weight of a superhero franchise.

Spider-Man


  Garfield is our new Peter Parker, and this time he's more of a hipster outcast (complete with skateboard and a seemingly endless array of hoodies) than timid nerd. Still troubled by the mysterious disappearance of his parents years earlier, Peter's lonely teenage years change dramatically when a spider bite leaves him with some serious strength and cobwebs coming out of his ears wrists. Like I said, you've heard this story before, but to find out why The Amazing Spider-Man is still worth seeing.

  She's half human, half vampire, and entirely adorable -- in a stoic, bloodthirsty sort of way. Bella and Edward's first offspring Renesmee has been revealed as she makes her big screen debut .

  Renesmee, seen peeking through in this photo released by Entertainment Weekly, is played by 11-year-old Mackenzie Foy -- and yes, she has grown up quite quickly since she was born in "Part 1." (To be fair, Foy did make a brief appearance as Renesmee in "Part 1" during a flash forward scene depicting the thoughts of Jacob -- played by Taylor Lautner.)

  Speaking of flash forwards, before "Twilight," Foy appeared in the show "Flash Forward," as well as "Hawaii Five-O," and has other television and film projects on the horizon. Foy was actually filming "Five-O" when she found out she got the part of Renesmee.

Andrew Garfield: Emma Stone Keeps Me on My Toes

  There's no denying their on-screen chemistry in The Amazing Spider-Man – just check out that kiss. But Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone weren't just faking it for the cameras.

  "We got on really well as people in between [takes]," Garfield, 28, tells MTV News. "That was the fun stuff. In between, we'd just mess around, and I felt, 'Ah, this is different.' "

  So what attracted him to Stone, 23, whom he began dating last year?

  "She keeps you on your toes," he says, "and that wakes you up."

  But the couple first proved their compatibility before Stone even landed a role in the film. "We read a couple of scenes together," Stone recalls of their initial screen test, which she calls a sure-fire way to tell if two actors will work well when the cameras are rolling.

  "You can sense if you guys have a kind of chemistry or rapport right away," she says. "No matter what the relationship is, whether it's a love interest or not."

  And it looks like Spider-Man filmmakers saw the sparks fly between Stone and Garfield.

  "Obviously, I was so happy that she got the role and decided to do it," Garfield adds. "Those are the days I'd look forward to."

David Hasselhoff talks "Piranha 3DD", his high-protein essence, and the Hoff Train

  News from the Internet.Thanks for your reading .
  Before I spoke with David Hasselhoff, aka "The Hoff," I knew what most people know about the man: He's a world-famous celebrity known as much for his starring roles in "Baywatch" (1989) and "Knight Rider" (1982) as he is for his German-pleasing music and passion for cheeseburgers. But now that I've had the chance to speak with The Hoff about his upcoming horror-comedy "Piranha 3DD," I know something else: The Hoff is really funny.

Piranha 3DD


  I laughed throughout our candid phone conversation. I laughed while he told me about the emotionally gutting preparations he undertook to play the part of himself. I laughed when he poeticized the difference between David Hasselhoff and The Hoff. I laughed while he explained that his fan base would be disappointed if they saw him in bed with just one woman. And I laughed when I found out that the essence of The Hoff is sushi.

  Of course, all this laughter is right in check with the tone of the film -- a sequel to the gore and flesh fest "Piranha 3D" (2010) -- which promises "twice the terror" and "double the D's." One thing it certainly has is Hasselhoff, which should make you want to "get on your Hoff Train and take a ride" to your local theater when "Piranha 3DD" opens Friday.

  Adam Pockross: Mr. Hasselhoff, how did you prepare to play Mr. Hasselhoff?

  David 'The Hoff' Hasselhoff: I went into a deep trance, and every night I meditated, and I read David Hasselhoff's book to try to find out who he was about. I spent probably two days eating cheeseburgers. I also prepared by looking at old "Baywatch" episodes that he was in. And then I talked to his children, Taylor-Ann and Hayley, and spoke to them at length about what it's like living with their father. And then I visited the Berlin Wall and saw exactly the part where he cracked that exact spot. I stood on the wall for a while and I cried, because it was so emotional.

  Then I went onstage with the director, and we did some emotional recall where you lie down and you go into your childhood memories. Like, 'If you were David Hasselhoff, what would have been your first big toy?' And it was a go-kart that came to me, like in 'Knight Rider.' It was really weird. And, 'What was your favorite thing?' It was the beach, and I was like, 'Wow!' So, that's how I did it.

  And I think it worked because I was able to play David Hasselhoff, and kind of get to the essence of him, especially with the line, 'Holy f---, I'm old.' That was a hard line for me to do because I don't feel old, and I never say the word 'holy' and 'f---' together. I've said 'f---,' but never 'holy f---.' But that was the hardest part, to say, 'Holy f---, I'm old.' But I got to do it. And then also, I did get some blood in my eye when I was making the film, but the best part about it was I just kept going. And the director said, 'God, that's fantastic!' And if you look really closely, you'll see me trying to clear my eye during the movie.

Leonardo DiCaprio was sought for Riddler role

  As buzz for "The Dark Knight Rises" continues to build, we are learning that Catwoman and Bane were not necessarily Warner Brothers' first choice to represent the villainous vibes of Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy finale.

Leonardo DiCaprio


  Instead, the studio had envisioned Leonardo DiCaprio in the role of the Riddler (made famous by Jim Carrey in "Batman Forever" and also by Frank Gorshin and John Astin in the '60s television series).

  In an interesting twist, the DiCaprio proposal -- while ultimately unsuccessful for unknown reasons -- may have spawned other casting choices. You see, much of the "Inception" cast carries over into "Rises": Tom Hardy, Marion Cotillard, Michael Caine, and Joseph Gordon-Levitt -- who was originally thought to be cast as the Riddler.

  Goyer also revealed in his Empire interview that the ending of "Rises" was conceived at the outset of his partnership with Nolan in the film franchise (via Screen Rant).

  "The final scene of 'The Dark Knight Rises' is exactly [the] scene we talked about .It remained completely unchanged. We both knew in our hearts that we were onto something special. I have to tell you, having finally seen everything strung together a little while ago and seeing that scene, I got a complete lump in my throat."

  While this is Nolan's final bow with Batman, the franchise could continue -- as it has for the past 20 plus years. Don't rule DiCaprio out for future Riddler roles.
