The Breach, not to be confused with Breach, is the second feature from Rue Morgue founding editor Rodrigo Gudiño (The Last Will and Testament of Rosalind Leigh). Co-written by Nick Cutter and Ian Weir based on Cutter’s novel, its mix of haunted house and mad scientist themes attracted a lot of pre-release buzz which I was hoping it would live up to.
John Hawkins has one week left as sheriff of Lone Crow. Then he can put the town, and his ex Meg, behind him and start a new job in the city. That, of course, means something terrible has to happen before he can leave. And it does when a canoe bearing the mutilated remains of theoretical physicist Cole Parsons washes up at a local park.

James Coyne ("Puncture Wounds," "Vikingdom") has reportedly been brought on as writer on the script for the third film in Guy Ritchie's "Sherlock Holmes" action-adventure series.
At last report "Iron Man 3" screenwriter Drew Pearce was hired to work on a screenplay, whether Coyne is just polishing or starting over is unclear at this time.
Both Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law are expected to reprise their roles of Holmes and Watson. Downey suggested last week that filming could begin later this year, but there's no confirmation of that at this time.

Justin Hires ("21 Jump Street," "Key and Peele") is set to play Carter, the role which Chris Tucker made famous, in CBS' TV adaptation of the hit "Rush Hour" movie franchise.
He joins British actor Jon Foo ("Tekken," "Vikingdom," "The Protector") who is taking on the role of Detective Lee which Jackie Chan played in the films.
Hires' Carter is an irreverent bad-boy detective who uses unorthodox methods to get results. He also has no interest in a partner, but is forced to work with a stoic, by-the-book Hong Kong police detective assigned to a case in Los Angeles.
Bill Lawrence and Blake McCormick penned and will executive produce the show. "National Treasure" helmer Jon Turteltaub will direct the pilot and executive produce as well.

If there is one thing that Vikings have absolutely no tolerance for, it has to be men in tunics, as this clip from Vikingdom clearly demonstrates. If you are wearing a tunic, then sadly you are a dead man. The equation is simple. The less clothes you wear, the more deadly and efficient you are at killing. Must be a freedom of movement thing. Or, in the case of Natassia Malthe and her whip, that is simply... a good thing. Wink wink. Nudge nudge. ...

Given that the Southern Hemisphere is experiencing the summer season, it’s no wonder AnnaLynne McCord and Dominic Purcell have escaped to Australia for the holidays.
On Wednesday (January 1) the “Fired Up!” starlet pranced around on Manly Beach in Sydney with her main man, who displayed his buff bod for all to see.
A native Aussie, Purcell began dating AnnaLynne back in 2011 and despite rumors of a split in 2012, these two are ringing in the New Year very much together.
In career news, Ms. McCord will star alongside Billy Zane in “Scorned,” while Dominic’s new flick “Vikingdom” recently came out on DVD and Blu-Ray.

Most of us are used to seeing Iron Man or Loki attack Thor, but in the case of the low-budget fantasy epic Vikingdom, actor Dominic Purcell is tasked with that enormous challenge, made even more daunting because this interpretation of Thor is played by the seven-foot-tall Conan Stevens...
...and he’s a very angry, very red-headed version of the God of Thunder.
Purcell plays a forgotten king, Eirick, who has returned from the dead to lead an army against the mighty Thor, who has grown tired of the humans and their attempt to replace the Greek pantheon with Christianity. Talking with Purcell, he seems to be acutely aware of what kind of movie he’s in and fully expects to fall victim to a few arrow shots from critics.
DC: Was your father Norwegian? Is that right? Did you grow up with more of an awareness of Norse mythology because of his background?...

Say it out loud, and the title Vikingdom, that slapdash portmanteau, reveals its hidden promise: Viking Dumb. That's a fair summation of the glory and ridiculousness of what director Yusry Abd Halim and his cohorts at Kru Productions have pulled off in this B-movie gone amok. They only could have improved on its accuracy if they'd just gone ahead and called it exactly what it is: The First and Best-Ever Malaysian Viking Flick with All-English Dialogue.

Former Uwe Boll actors Dominic Purcell and Natassia Malthe team up to take on an evil Thor in Yusry Abd Halim’s expensive looking action-adventure fantasy epic “Vikingdom”. Thor is up to no good in this one, which will probably make the Odin Father very angry. Where’s Loki when you need him? Maybe Marvel can spare Tom Hiddleston to make a cameo. Couldn’t hurt to ask, right? Or maybe one of Thor’s fellow Avengers… Anyhoo. Check out a pair of trailers and a batch of images from the film. It actually looks pretty good. Or at least, very interesting. Jon Foo of “Tekken” fame is in this one, too. (Or Jon Foo of “Tekken” infamy in case you didn’t like “Tekken”. To each his own.)

The company is developing a “Rocky” style biopic of the 25-year-old Fc Barcelona soccer player, known for his precision, ball control and small 5-feet-7-inch frame.
Excerpt from the lengthy Bio that Fc Barcelona:
Leo Messi, with Four Ballon d’Or awards to his name (2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012) can be officially considered the best player in the world. But despite so many individual virtues, he is also a remarkable team player.
…On May 1, 2005, he became the youngest player ever to score a league goal for Fc Barcelona – against Albacete when Messi was only 17 years, 10 months and 7 days old.
…Messi is also captain of the Argentina national and has played in two World Cups (2006 and 2010) and two Copa Americas (2007 and 2011). In the summer of 2008 he also played at the Beijing Olympics,...

After putting in dues overseas in Asian cinema, Stevens now finds himself popping up on Hollywood's radar and will likely be landing increasingly bigger roles in the near future.

Following his stint on Game of Thrones, Conan can next be seen in Season 2 of Starz's Spartacus: Vengeance, in Epic Pictures' upcoming release Vikingdom and of course in The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.
