After The Spirit, The Women, comes Southbound, the next movie for the nicely-endowed Eva Mendes, with Camila Alves’ main squeeze Matthew McConaughey playing her leading man.
According to the British film magazine Empire, the plot is going to be extra complicated:
It tells the story of a US Border Patrol agent (McConaughey) who accepts a bribe from a beautiful Mexican woman (Mendes). As you’d imagine, that never ends well, and sure enough he ends up putting his family in danger as he becomes embroiled in a conflict between Mexican crime families and the US immigration police.
Now, why does the plot sound so eeringly familiar? It surely is the same movie that Eva was filming in Mexico with director Jonathan Jakubowicz back in March, before she and the rest of the film crew had to move out of Mexico because of death threats!
Ana Claudia Talancón’s career is on the rise. Ana Claudia is going to be co-starring with none other than America Ferrera in the immigration movie The Dry Land.
Our chica is making major progress. ¡Que se prepare Hollywood!
It’s a movie called Bad Lieutenant and Eva Mendes is on the cast. Please let this not be a movie that’s going to get her a Razzy.
The movie stars Nicolas Cage, rapper Xhibit, and a slew of other wonderful actors, but since I’m convinced that you will only care about your Eva, I’ve mad a list of all the spots where your beauty appears (thank me later):
0.43 seconds
0.49 seconds
1.49-1.51 minute
Okay. And now for your viewing pleasure, the trailer.
Bárbara Mori’s career is back in gears. We told you previously about how she’s going to be producing Caída libre.
But while she’s waiting for that to happen, Kites her movie co-starring Bollywood megastar Hrithik Roshan is getting her plenty of acclaim. Bárbarita sounded off on what it felt like to be at the famous Cannes film festival and having her movie there:
And she broke down the film for us, as well as what her first English language film felt like:
“Es una historia de amor, estilo Romeo y Julieta, pero muy actual, con mucha acción, donde un hindú se enamora de una mexicana. Mi primera experiencia en inglés, estaba muy nerviosa por eso, pero una vez que me fui para allá, me di cuenta de que no es tan difícil.”
She’s sworn off telenovelas, but I think she’ll come back to Latin TV for the right role. In the meantime though, you had better believe that our Mexican-Uruguayan has her career game on lock.
I don’t believe for a minute that Jencarlos Canela was born in 1988 like his bio says. (Tell you the truth, I think he’s another Allisson Lozz) He looks too fine. How many fresh off the rails of puberty guys do you know who looks as fine as Jencarlosito looks on this cover of Venue Magazine?
I don’t know of any? Do you. And ladies, is he like the only reason why you tune in to see Más Sabe el Diabloon Telemundo on the weeknights?
Glitter Mariah Carey’s very first movie was released nearly 10 years ago, but sometimes it feels like no one wants to give her a break about the fact that the pelicula bombed at the box office.
Me!Me! has some really good explanation as to why it did, though. And it has nothing to do with her, or her acting skills:
“That movie was released on September 11th, 2001 – could there be a worse day for that movie to come out? I don’t think so,” she said. “I don’t even know that many people even saw the movie so I don’t think it’s the worst thing ever done.
“Glitter was a learning experience and I wouldn’t do it again if you paid me. But I didn’t have representation or anyone to tell me: ‘What you need is a great director’.”
Is it me or does that last part sound like a diss at the director, Vondie Curtis-Hall. You just know he’s somewhere fuming!
Percy Jackson, an upcoming fantasy film, has Rosario Dawson in its cast. According to Entertainment Weekly, Rosario’s going to play Persephone, the imprisoned wife of the lord of Hades.
Hard to imagine Mz. Rosario in some suppressed woman role, kneeling to some Greek god tyrant, but movies are all about acting.
Our boy Esai Moralesis in the “Battlestar Galactica” prequel “Caprica” and spoke to IGN about his character Joe “Adama” Adams, who raises his son William Adama to preteenhood after his wife and daughter are killed by monotheists terrrorists.
And the plot thickens, as Esai explains things further:
“I meet Eric Stoltz’s character, a very wealthy technical industrialist, whose daughter was involved, I find out later, in this whole thing,” he continues. “But until that point, I’m grateful that he’s kind of taken me under his wing and that he wants to show me this technology that he’s claiming can bring his daughter back to life.”
“I’m the moral compass in this, where Eric Stoltz is the intellectual mad genius who is willing to do anything to not only succeed in this business but also bring his daughter back,” he says. “They kind of go hand in hand. The technology that could make this robot, well, they want to make mechanical soldiers [with it too].”
Esai Morales, the moral compass? Well, dang; this show has that many wicked villains? Welll, this is television after all folks, not real life.
Yes, folks; out of all people. Would Eva be able to pull that off?
Eva is a decent actress, sure, but I don’t know what Stratsbourg Institute and Constantin Sergeyevich Stanislavski techniques she could pull off to exude trash.
La Trevi has mighty hopes for the movie about her life story. El Universal reported that she’s told the press that she wants the movie’s producers to pay attention to detail. And that’d be lots of details considering Gloria’s dramatic, telenovela-ish life.
And you thought that after Sin Senos No Hay Paraiso, Telemundo wouldn’t be able to top itself. El Rostro de Analía has had my attention on and off for the past months, but hey the other night Analía Moncada started to have flashbacks about her past and is beginning to realize that she’s not Analía Moncada at all but rather the presumed dead Mariana Montiel.
Dang, it’s getting juicy.
And for those of you tontas out there who are missing this great show, let me break El Rostro de Analía down for you. CONTINUE READING
