2 hours
In addition, Twitch report that Scott Adkins will play King Amphitryon in the movie alongside Kellen Lutz as Hercules himself in the Renny Harlin directed flick which is currently shooting in Bulgaria. They've also managed to nab a bit of info on the character..
"Myths are that During Amphitryon's absence, Alcmene (Hercule's mother) became pregnant by Zeus, who disguised himself as Amphitryon, when he visited her; she then became pregnant again by her real husband upon his return. Of these unions were born twin boys, of whom Iphicles was the son of Amphitryon, Hercules the son of Zeus."

POLL: Who Should Be Hired To Direct STAR TREK 3?
8 hours
With J.J. Abrams set to direct Star Wars: Episode VII for a summer 2015 release, it's very likely that he won't be back to helm a third installment of his Star Trek series. Paramount is reportedly targeting a 2016 release for the threequel, which would make perfect sense as that year marks the 50th anniversary of the franchise. Also, I doubt anyone involved would want to wait another four years in between installments. Last night, we heard that Attack The Block director and Ant-Man co-writer Joe Cornish was reported to be one of the many names in consideration to helm the next Star Trek movie. With that in mind, I decided to post a poll of possible candidates, and you can vote for your pick below.
-As stated above, Joe Cornish is reportedly one of the names in consideration for the job. He has sci-fi experience after Attack The Block, and is

EDITORIAL: A Look At Joss Whedon Vs. Bryan Singer And The Battle For Quicksilver
9 hours
Let's be honest; at this point, we really don't know all that much about X-Men: Days of Future Past. On the one hand we have what we DO know (very little), and on the other we have what we THINK we know (a lot). However, the addition of Quicksilver to the already packed out cast of characters falls into the category of the former and it is this which has been met with an extremely negative reaction from fans over the past 24 hours. Why? Well, a lot of it is due to the fact that many believe that Marvel Studios will now scrap plans to use the character and his sister the Scarlet Witch because of the inevitable confusion and possible legal issues this could cause. While Marvel are seemingly well within their rights to still introduce the duo in The Avengers 2 - referring to them as "Pietro" and
Opening Salvo? A Look Back At Fox And Marvel Right Negotiations
9 hours
May 23, 2013. Remember that date comicbookmovie.com faithful. A new wrinkle in the superhero adaptation game has just reared its ugly head as the opening salvo was just launched between Fox and Marvel Studios over character rights. Make no mistake, inserting Quicksilver into X-Men: Days of Future Past at such a late stage in the film's production is a calculated move on 20th Century Fox's part with a clear message aimed at Marvel Studios. In real estate, this would be called possessory interest - the intent and right of an individual to occupy and/or exercise control over a particular plot of land (or in this case "a particular character"). By utilizing Quicksilver first, Fox is establishing first claim to the character in a move that could potentially lead to legal action if Marvel is foolish enough to use the same character in The Avengers 2.

Okay, so what the heck is an Oscorp crater fire? One would assume it means the crater was caused by something from Oscorp, and that in turn suggests that the Oscorp building has seen some pretty major destruction of some kind. Is this somehow tied into Norman Osborn becoming Green Goblin..or perhaps one of the other villainous characters (Electro/Rhino) undergoing their transformation? Speculate away!

EXCLUSIVE: Harald Belker’s STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS & OBLIVION Concept Art

If you are a Hollywood producer and need a vehicle designed that will grab the attention of moviegoers, then Harald Belker is one of the first designers that you give a ring. He has made quite a name for himself in Hollywood with his bold Batmbolie designs (1997's Batman and Robin), and sculpted a stunning future for vehicle designs with his groundbreaking work in Steven Spielberg's Minority Report.
Recently, we featured Harald's amazing Superman: Flyby work, and now he has been kind enough to send us his latest contributions for J.J. Abrams' Star Trek Into Darkness and Joseph Kosinski's Oblivion.
As for Star Trek Into Darkness, Harald designed Starfleet single seater and Klingon ships. You can view images of both designs below, but I would also encourage you to head on over to Film Sketchr, as they have a few more images and a rather candid interview with Harald Belker.

Thanks to Hero Complex, we have a first look and details for Warner Bros.' Man of Steel online video game tie-in, "Metropolis Mayhem". According to the site, it launches today at metropolismayhem.manofsteel.com and can in fact be found there right now. As they point out, "The 2-D game allows players to fly Superman through Metropolis, using their keyboard to maneuver the Man of Steel around obstacles and destroy objects with heat-vision. Players must collect Superman logos to increase their score while dodging floating laser beams, plasma weapons from dropships and guided rockets shot from helicopters. Get hit five times, and Supes is a goner." It even features a new sampling of Hans Zimmer's movie soundtrack!

SCOOP: Is There Going To Be a Death in CAPTAIN AMERICA 2?
10 hours
As Captain America: The Winter Soldier continues to film in Cleveland, a new piece of information has been revealed.
Per a local media source, a secret location was said to be a spot for Cap 2 filming in Cleveland. The location was said to be at the Lakeview Cemetery on Cleveland's east side, which was previously unknown to anyone outside of the production. So while taking a break from today's main car chase location in Downtown Cleveland and checking out this cemetery scoop, the 10-minute drive to the cemetery gave this writer concrete visual confirmation of this location scoop. Marvel Studios is indeed setting up shop at the cemetery.
So what does this mean?
It could mean there are several scenarios which may play out. The first speculation is that Captain America might be visiting an old friend's grave... Peggy Carter. Second, perhaps Nick Fury dies in the sequel since he is being hunted

Tom Cruise Exits MAN FROM U.N.C.L.E; WB Recasting
10 hours
According to Deadline, Tom Cruise has jumped ship from The Man From U.N.C.L.E. and will no longer be playing the lead role in the Guy Ritchie directed movie. Apparently the actor stepped away from the picture to focus on producing and starring in Mission: Impossible 5, which Paramount and Skydance are now planning to begin shooting before year’s end. Cruise would have starred alongside Armie Hammer, and WB will now search for a replacement partner for the Lone Ranger star. The original TV series ran from 1964-68, and starred Robert Vaughan and David McCallum as agents of the United Network Command for Law Enforcement, Napoleon Solo and Illya Kuryakin as they battled the evil forces of "Thrush" (sounds nasty).

Joss Whedon: Not simple, you’re right.

Gore Verbinski And Jerry Bruckheimer Look Back On Filming Disney’s THE LONE RANGER

Speaking with CNN, The Lone Ranger director Gore Verbinski and producer Jerry Bruckheimer talk about the difficulties of filming Disney's big budget western. The former comments on meeting expectations amidst competition, saying, "I think every director who's making a big movie this summer has gone through the same thing,. That's what audiences expect, and you've gotta be really entertaining. It's competition." Bruckheimer adds, "Nobody understands how difficult it is actually to do it. The grueling hours, the lack of sleep. [Verbinski's] always looking for another location -- he lost a location, he's got to shoot something else the next day, an actor's sick. ... It's just unbelievable that you're running this thing for a number of months and you're moving an army five states."

Hugh Jackman Reveals That Bryan Singer BANNED Comic Books From The Set Of X-MEN
14 hours
ComicBook.com have posted an excerpt from Hugh Jackman's interview with EW about The Wolverine, and the Academy Award nominated actor revealed a very interesting story from back when he was first cast as Logan by Bryan Singer for X-Men. The director apparently banned comic books from the set of the movie as he didn't want the actors to be influenced by them instead of the script for the movie. That explains a lot. Regardless, the cast still managed to find a way around this as the comics secretly found their way around the set ("Through the trailer door would come comics," the actor recalled). It was in fact during the production of this movie that Jackman read Chris Claremont and Frank Miller's Wolverine series that the upcoming solo movie is based on.
On a related note, Singer has now removed the Tweet in which he seemingly made either a dig at

Quicksilver news aside, X-Men: Days of Future Past is shaping up to be quite the ambitious project from 20th Century Fox. By all accounts it will be the studio's first film that looks to create a shared universe comprised of all the characters the studio owns from its Fantastic Four and X-Men rights. Director Bryan Singer hints that something more is looking to be achieved other than simply combining a large contingent of X-Men actors into one film. "It’s not just another X-Men film; it’s not just about the combined cast as there will be certain technologies and other stuff that we haven’t seen before in the X-Men film. There are also issues of time and we’re messing about with that. I think we’ve got it figured out. I pitched it to James Cameron when I was in New Zealand last year and he said, ‘Yes,

Zoë Saldaña Is Curious About Her GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY Costume
18 hours
Touching on her apparent preference for sci-fi films, actress Zoë Saldaña says that it's not intentional, it's just that she's drawn to creativity and stories that are different from every day life. As the actress describes her criteria for role selection it's not a stretch to say she's a bit of a risk taker. "I do have an affinity for people, writers, directors and storytellers who are that creative and have an infinite imagination to imagine the unimaginable and boldly go where no one has gone before. I know it sounds cheesy to use that line as a reference but it's true — it takes a lot of talent and courage and freedom to conceive something that you have never seen, or take inspiration from everything around your life and build something that you've never actually physically seen with your eyes."
Currently, Saldaña admits that she doesn't know a
WB General Counsel John Rogovin Calls MAN OF STEEL Spectacular + First Full Detailed Review SPOILER WARNING

Warner Bros. General Counsel John Rogovin has seen the film Man of Steel and believes the film is "spectacular".
“It’s spectacular. The rights are going to be well taken care of here. The VFX were very realistic and the music was perfectly correlated to the action. You really sympathized with Clark and saw his character evolved. I will definitely bring my kids to see it. No, it didn’t seem dark at all. Just made Superman feel more like the earth’s first alien. Krypton was the epitome of science gone overboard. Lois is much stronger and heroic and an equal partner, as opposed to a damsel in distress. None of it was scary like Dark Knight or HP.”

Many of you probably already know that the graphic novel, Flashpoint, lead to the demise of the classic DC Universe which ultimately lead to DC Comics launching the New 52 line of comics accompanied by a brand new universe. Many characters and events were missing from this new timeline, but the books were still of great quality. Now, Geoff Johns' graphic novel is getting the animated treatment and has been retitled to Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox. Check out the first trailer below!
The film stars Justin Chambers as Barry Allen, Kevin McKidd as Thomas Wayne/Batman, Michael B Jordan as Cyborg and C. Thomas Howell as Reverse Flash.The world is turned upside down as one of earth’s greatest super heroes – Flash – wakes up devoid of his super powers in the all-new Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox – the next entry in the popular, ongoing series of DC Universe Original Animated
ATTACK THE BLOCK Director Joe Cornish In The Running To Helm STAR TREK 3?
1 day
He worked on the The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn and Ant-Man screenplays, and made his directorial debut with the brilliant British sci-fi/horror movie Attack the Block. However, it is now being reported by Latino-Review's Elmayimbe that Joe Cornish is on the shortlist of filmmakers that Paramount and Bad Robot are considering as a replacement for J.J. Abrams. A third instalment in the franchise is far from confirmed at this point, especially after Star Trek Into Darkness' disappointing opening in North America. However, the studio ARE reportedly quite keen to get Star Trek 3 in theatres by the time the series celebrates its 50th anniversary in 2016. As J.J. Abrams will be far too busy with Star Wars Episode VII to work on that film, expect to hear more about any possible replacements over the coming weeks and months! What do you guys think?

Speaking with Yahoo! Movies, Oscar winning actor Jamie Foxx talks briefly about his role as Electro in next summer's The Amazing Spider-Man 2. He praises the costume worn by the villain, saying that he had no input into the design but thought that it was "very creative". "Oh, man ― it's so much fun. The costume is great. They were very creative with it." He also talks about sitting in the makeup chair for a long length of time, and states that he merely "chills" during the process. "It's a couple hours ― a couple hours of work, but it's really so much fun. It's part of a remarkable legacy: Spider-Man. I mean, when you're growing up as a kid, you know, that's everything. So to be able to be in that is just amazing."
Finally, Foxx confirms that he will be appearing at this July's San Diego Comic-Con to promote the
SITE ANNOUNCEMENT: A word from Galactus about false reporting, and “The Hall of Shame”…
1 day
Hey Gang! Galactus here. I'm one of the site owners--in case ya didn't know...
Anyhoo, we're getting an excess of people abusing our reporting system and overloading the "Hall of Shame". Whether these abusers are being overly sensitive, or trying to get other people in trouble, or just didn't read the description of how our reporting system is supposed to work--for whatever reason, there are way too many users reporting others for fairly benign comments.
So, let me explain ONCE to everybody in this article and hope that it gets passed along to those who are doing it.
1.) The reporting system is so we can be alerted to and ban TROLLS and SPAMMERs, not users you don't personally like or have silly disagreements with.
2.) Being offended that someone has a differing OPINION than you is not a reportable offense. Do not be overly-sensitive and report people who have not done anything wrong.

Will GoTG affect Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver’s backstory?
1 day
Okay, I'm sure you're all aware of the ruckus over recent news that Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver are in the current draft of Avengers 2. If this remains the same, I believe GoTG will affect the backstory of the mutant twins. Let's just start with the Lee Pace thing, shall we.
Lee Pace has been cast as a villain in GoTG, and speculation is ripe. Is he Korvac, the Controller, Ronan? Well if you ask me I'd say he's the greatest mind in the galaxy, The High Evolutionary.
Who? You may ask. Well the High Evolutionary is a scientist named Herbert Wyndham from the 1930s. He invented a machine that could enhance genetics itself. He used it on himself at a place called Wundagore Mountain, and he became the pinnacle of human evolution. He created Magus AKA Warlock, a founding member of the current GoTG.

New Promo Banner For Guillermo Del Toro’s PACIFIC RIM Released
1 day
When legions of monstrous creatures, known as Kaiju, started rising from the sea, a war began that would take millions of lives and consume humanity’s resources for years on end. To combat the giant Kaiju, a special type of weapon was devised: massive robots, called Jaegers, which are controlled simultaneously by two pilots whose minds are locked in a neural bridge. But even the Jaegers are proving nearly defenseless in the face of the relentless Kaiju. On the verge of defeat, the forces defending mankind have no choice but to turn to two unlikely heroes — a washed up former pilot and an untested trainee — who are teamed to drive a legendary but seemingly obsolete Jaeger from the past. Together, they stand as mankind’s last hope against the mounting apocalypse.
Pacific Rim stars Charlie Hunnam, Idris Elba, Rinko Kikuchi, Charlie Day and Ron Perlman. The film is set to hit theaters
BOX OFFICE: STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS Finally Crosses $100 Million In North America
1 day
Despite a 3D conversion, Star Trek Into Darkness took almost the exact same amount of time as 2009's Star Trek to surpass $100 million at the North American box office. It was originally thought that the sequel would surpass this number by last Sunday, especially as it opened early on Wednesday in IMAX screens. Regardless, the film took $5.33 million yesterday, which gives it a current domestic total of $103.77 million. This weekend will see both Fast & Furious 6 and The Hangover Part III hit screens across the country, although it's thought that the former will dominate with upwards of $85 million. As these films roll out internationally as well (Fast & Furious 6 had the second highest opening of 2013 in the UK last week), they will more than likely make a large dent in Star Trek Into Darkness' overseas takings, so a third instalment is from from guaranteed

Of course, as the script for the untitled follow-up is being written right now, no offer has been made. Speaking with The Mary Sue while promoting Violet & Daisy, Ronan was asked if she's heard these reports and whether or not she was interested, and had this to say. "I have heard about it and yes, I would. Yeah, of course I would. I love Joss and I love those films, and I love his handle on them and how he portrayed these kinds of superheroes.

Recently, the first full theatrical trailer for The Wolverine was released to mostly positive fan reaction. I'll admit, I wasn't overly impressed with the trailer after my first viewing but the more I watch it, the more I like it. Often times, comic book movies bombard you with action and impressive vfx in their trailers but it looks like The Wolverine is definitely putting an emphasis on story as Jackman touts the film as "a character piece."
Said Hugh, "[Wolverine's] back, and I couldn't be happier. I never in a million years would've thought (that) I'd still be playing this character (12 years later). It kind of really is shocking to me, but at the same time, it's such an instant gratitude, because I love this character."

From all the featurette, trailers and promos it looks as if Warner Bros. has a sure-fire box office hit on their hands with Man of Steel. However, the fan community is a place where information is highly prioritized, specifically information on what's coming next down the pipeline. In that respect, many DC Comics fans want to know what's coming next after Man of Steel - is it a Justice League film, a Man of Steel sequel or something else entirely? Speaking on one of those possibilities (with SFX Magazine), Henry Cavill comments on what he'd like to explore in a possible team-up with Batman.
"I think it would be really interesting with the age-old Batman/Superman conflict because they are two different sides of the same coin and their methods are entirely different. And I think it would actually make for an interesting story as to why, first of all,
Marvel Security On CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE WINTER SOLDIER Production Is At Defcon 1

It's not easy working security for Marvel Studios on the production of Captain America: The Winter Soldier while they are on location in Cleveland.
Being in such a public location, with windows and buildings (both public and private) at every angle, Marvel security has its hands full. Especially after someone at their Washington D.C. leg of their production last week ran across the sides of a specific day of filming and took photos of them and posted them online. Sides are a daily print out of script pages for what will be in scenes for that day's shoots.
Now in Cleveland, Marvel faces the problem of local and online media outlets trying to take the perfect photos of that action on the set . Obviously this is a problem for all films that are in a metropolitan area and not in a closed off sound stage, interior location or warehouse.

Overwhelmingly Positive WORLD WAR Z Screening Reactions Hit Via Twitter

Fans, journalists and celebrities all got the chance to catch an early screening of World War Z last night, and as you can see from the assortment of Tweets below, the reaction so far has been overwhelmingly positive. While it does appear as if it takes some liberties with the source material, this is good news for the movie which has reportedly been plagued by production problems for almost as long as it's been shooting. Of course, regardless of the response, the fact that the budget apparently ended up increasing dramatically may mean that World War Z struggles to be a hit at the box office (especially as Paramount haven't done the best of jobs marketing it so far, leading many to be unsure as to what the film is even about). Are you guys looking forward to it?

Richard Emms, director of Limited Edition Comix in Stevenage, comments on the release of the X-Men #1 variant cover, its connection to the charity and what it means to the stores customers who have supported the charity too.
We feel extremely privileged to be able to do something for The Sick Childrens Trust and on this scale. We cant thank James (Viscardi at Marvel Comics) for all his help putting this together for us and getting Ed (Mcguinness) involved with
Van Damn! Universal Rebooting TIMECOP
2 days
I gotta admit, Timecop is one of my favorite guilty pleasures. Hell, Jean-Claude Van Damme's films from the early 90's are all guilty pleasure for me. Yes, I had no taste in films when I was hitting puberty, fuck you. Anyways, the 1994 film is "set in the near future where time travel is regulated by a police force. One officer (Van Damme) runs afoul a crooked politician (played by Ron Silver) using time travel to further his political career."
It's incredibly entertaining, with a strong supporting cast lead by Mia Sara (Ferris Bueller's hot girlfriend) as Melissa Walker, Bruce McGill as Commander Eugene Matuzak and Gloria Reuben as Sarah Fielding.
So, when today's news came out that Universal was remaking Timecop I wasn't exactly happy, nor was I angry. I always thought the premise was interesting enough. If handled correctly a franchise could be cultivated.

More From Ray Stevenson On THOR: THE DARK WORLD
2 days
Chatting recently with Speakeasy about playing a gay mobster in the Dexter Showtime drama series, Ray Stevenson offered new details about returning as Volstagg in Marvel's upcoming sequel, Thor: The Dark World. Explaining how Asgard has changed since the first film, the British actor said:
"In the first “Thor,” Asgard had this tremendous peace among the 9 realms," he said. "They were riding at the heights. Everything is working and looking as it should be. In this one, the realms are being whipped up into various rebellions. There is a darker malignant force out there and we are in the process of engaging in long protracted skirmishes and battles. The luster and shine of the city has been taken off and it all leads to a huge assault, an attack at the heart of Asgard," Stevenson reassured, adding that, "It could be completely wiped out, the stakes are a lot higher."

Latest GODZILLA Behind-The-Scenes Still Teases An Evacuation
2 days
Legendary Pictures has been sharing some cool behind-the-scenes stills from the set of the anticipated reboot Godzilla, and now the studio has posted the following image on its Twitter account. As you can tell, it certainly isn't as surprising as others we've seen recently, as it only features a pile of documents. However, it might tease some intriguing info from the currently-shooting film, such as a possible evacuation of the Farallon Islands (which is approximately 30 miles from San Francisco, which will see an attack from the titular creature). So, not much, but what do you think?
Godzilla stars Aaron Johnson, Ken Watanabe, Elizabeth Olsen and Bryan Cranston. The film is set to hit theaters May 16th, 2014 in 3D.

Did You Spot The Fake Robert Downey Jr. In IRON MAN 3?

When Robert Downey Jr. suffered a serious injury and had to take 6 weeks to recover, Shane Black and co. obviously kept production going on Marvel's Iron Man threequel..but they didn't only shoot scenes without Tony Stark in them. For that last scene with Tony overlooking the beach from the ruins of his mansion for example, a body double was used and Downey Jr.'s face superimposed in much the same fashion as the "Skinny Steve" version of Chris Evans was created in Captain America: TFA. “Together with face replacement and full body doubles, somewhere there was a solution to the problem of not having Robert Downey Jnr on set for the time,” explains Iron Man 3's VFX supervisor Chris Townsend. "We were able to reconstruct RDJ as Tony Stark on set, with the help of a body double and the facial captures we'd collected afterwards." I've seen the movie twice and

STAR TREK Writers On Possibly Moving To STAR WARS; Josh Holloway Up For Han Solo Role

A few minor pieces Star Wars news for your reading pleasure. First up, in an interview with Wall Street Journal, screenwriter Alex Kurtzman plays down the possibility of his reteaming with Star Trek Into Darkness director J.J. Abrams (and frequent co-writer Roberto Orci) on a future Wars installment. "I don’t think so. Obviously the God analogy applies there as well. But I think all of our slates are pretty full right now. I think we’re very happy with what we’ve done on “Star Trek” and our heads have been there, you know? They haven’t really gone past that point. I think right now we’re mostly excited to sit there in the theater and be fans of the next “Star Wars” movie. You don’t get that opportunity very often so I’m not sure we want to dilute it.)" This is similar to what Abrams stated when first asked if he would be

This would lead to him becoming possessed by one of the Hand's demons (the Beast), but it has since been firmly established that he was in full control of himself when he took out his murderous archnemesis.

Toby Jones Teases Return As ‘Arnim Zola’ In CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE WINTER SOLDIER

While speaking with ComingSoon.net in anticipation of his recent thriller, Berberian Sound Studio, Toby Jones talked a bit about reprising his Captain America: The First Avenger role, Arnim Zola, in Marvel's upcoming sequel, The Winter Soldier. “All I can say about it is that I was pleased to be brought back,” he said. “I thought I might be--because you'd know better than I do--but Zola finds a way to defeat time and you won't be disappointed with the way that's been treated in the film, that's what I would say.” With that said, it's almost safe to assume Zola will appear not only in flashbacks, but also during the present time (likely) in his comic-accurate android-robotic form.
Meanwhile, filming for Captain America: The Winter Soldier is very much underway now in Cleveland, Ohio. And while on set Monday, NBC News caught up with co-director Anthony Russo as he talked about shooting the

Earlier today, the NY Times released an interview with Man of Steel director Zack Snyder, producers Christopher Nolan and Deborah Snyder and screenwriter David S. Goyer. Below, you'll find a rundown of the most tantalizing quotes from the piece written by the Times' Dave Itzkoff.
Director Zack Snyder discusses some of the more recent interpretations of the Superman suit seen in Action Comics #1 and on the television show, Smallville.
Snyder: “When they try to dress him up, put him in jeans and a T-shirt or a leather jacket with an S on it, I go: ‘What? Guys, it’s O.K. It’s Superman. He’s the king daddy. You should all be bowing down to him.' [Man of Steel will] respect the S. ”
Snyder continues to discuss his interpretation of Superman - an approach he says really looks at the history of the character and seeks to embrace all the intrinsic aspects of

This morning in Downtown Cleveland onlookers were treated to a BOOM on the set of Captain America: The Winter Soldier!
After a test run for a giant fireball happened very early on set, it took over two hours to prepare for the real deal. And when the cameras were rolling, observers were in for a treat as they witnessed the black SWAT van and police cars blow up, flip and engulf into flames. These are vehicles from the same scene that has been filming over the past few days where Nick Fury's black SUV is surrounded by police and SWAT with heavy duty machine guns.
Logic says someone has arrived to help Nick Fury. Maybe it's the Black Widow or Captain America or even Sam Wilson (a.k.a. the Falcon). Whoever the hero is he or she is bound to show up at the East 6th and Rockwell set in the next few days

"Only Lover Left Alive is an unconventional love story between a man and a woman, Adam and Eve. (My script was partially inspired by the last book published by Mark Twain: The Diaries of Adam and Eve -- though no direct reference to the book is made other than the character’s names.) These two lovers are archetypal outsiders, classic bohemians, extremely intelligent and sophisticated -- yet still in full possession of their animal instincts. They have traveled the world and experienced many remarkable things, always inhabiting the shadowed margins of society. And, like their own love story, their particular perspective on human history spans centuries -- because they happen to be vampires.
But this is not your usual vampire story. Set in the very distinct cities of Detroit and Tangier, and taking place almost entirely at night, Adam and Eve must have human blood to survive. But they now live in the
