She befriends a pair of young thieves who appreciate her appetite for mischief, and together they are able to build a life for themselves on the London streets. One day, Estella’s flair for fashion catches the eye of the Baroness von Hellman, a fashion legend who is devastatingly chic and terrifyingly haute, played by two-time Oscar® winner Emma Thompson (“Howards End,” “Sense & Sensibility”). But their relationship sets in motion a course of events and revelations that will cause Estella to embrace her wicked side and become the raucous, fashionable and revenge-bent Cruella.

When his forsaken brother Jakob (John Cena, Bumblebee) unexpectedly resurfaces as an elite assassin, the crew comes back together to help Dom confront the sins of his own past and stop a world-shattering plot. Franchise veteran Justin Lin returns to the director’s seat for F9 and delivers this supercharged version of the hit film.

BONUS FEATURES ON 4K UHD, BLU-RAYTM, DVD AND DIGITAL:
  • GAG REEL
  • F9: ALL IN: The Fast family invites you to be part of the crew as they give you an intimate look at how F9 propels this epic franchise to even greater heights. This bonus feature, with more than 46 minutes of content, includes returning characters, new cast members, huge stunts, big surprises, and so much more.
  • PRACTICALLY FAST: When it comes to stunts, it seems each film in The Fast Saga outdoes the last. In this piece, we examine how Justin Lin and his team go to great lengths to shoot as many stunts as they can in-camera and practically, giving the film an authenticity that cannot be achieved solely through visual effects or CGI.
  • SHIFTING PRIORITIES: We first met many of these characters when The Fast and the Furious was released in 2001. In the 20+ years since, not only have the characters themselves grown and evolved, but so have the actors that portray them. Art often imitates life, and we look at how that's particularly true in F9.
  • JUSTICE FOR HAN: Han is back! Sung Kang and Justin Lin discuss the genesis for the return of this beloved character, while the cast reveals how much it means to them to have Kang back along for the ride.
  • A DAY ON SET WITH JUSTIN LIN: The job of a director on any movie production is huge. The job of a director on a production the scale of F9 is immeasurable. Spend a day with Justin Lin and see just how demanding it is to navigate a production day when you're the one with all the answers.
  • JOHN CENA: SUPERCAR SUPERFAN: John Cena is a real-life car expert, and no franchise does cars like Fast. Watch John jump from exotic car to exotic car like a kid in a candy store, giving you a true fan's look at some of the rarest and most expensive automobiles in the world.
  • FEATURE COMMENTARY (THEATRICAL AND DIRECTOR’S CUT) WITH PRODUCER/CO-WRITER/DIRECTOR JUSTIN LIN
 
F9 will be available on 4K UHD, Blu-ray™, DVD and Digital.
  • 4K Ultra HD delivers the ultimate movie watching experience. Featuring the combination of 4K resolution, the color brilliance of High Dynamic Range (HDR) and HDR10+, which delivers incredible brightness and contrast for each scene and immersive audio for a multidimensional sound experience.  
  • Blu-ray™ unleashes the power of your HDTV and is the best way to watch movies at home, featuring 6X the picture resolution of DVD, exclusive extras and theater-quality surround sound.

A new romantic comedy is coming our way. Directed by Javier Colón Ríos (Yo Soy Un Político) and written by Omar Mora (30 Days With My Brother), Inside the Circle stars Stefy Garcia, Justin Lee, Valeria Gonzalez and Omar Mora.
​This quirky romantic comedy is about a girl who believes in relationships and marriage. She falls for a man, a comic book and superhero lover, a great skeptic on all matters of the heart. 

The film has been acquired by Kaczmarek Digital Media Group (KDMG) for VOD distribution with release day on September 23, 2021, at Universal Cinema AMC at CityWalk in Hollywood. The deal was inked by Applied Art Productions, who is working as the sales agent for the film.

About the Filmmakers


​Mora first turned to a career in medicine, studying in Puerto Rico and Mexico, followed by New York City for his residency in physical medicine and rehabilitation at Saint Vincent's Hospital. After witnessing the tragedy of September 11, 2001, he pursued acting by enrolling at The New York Conservatory for Dramatic Arts' two-year program. Upon completing his medical residency and acting studies he moved to Los Angeles to practice both careers. Since then he has built a solid résumé. In 2012 he also became a writer, resulting in six feature film scripts and in 2013 he wrote his first literary novel: Ancient Explorers: The Lost City of Perú, available on Amazon. ​

Red Carpet Premiere of 'The Last Duel'

9/17/2021

0 Comments

 
Matt Damon, Jodie Comer, Ben Affleck, director/producer Ridley Scott and co-screenwriter/producer Nicole Holofcener arrived via water taxi for a photo call at the 78th annual Venice International Film Festival. Their upcoming film, The Last Duel will received its World Premiere out of competition. We hope you enjoy these images featuring both, the red carpet and photo call.

But first, here's a film synopsis on The Last Duel. 

A historical epic, The Last Duel is a gripping tale of betrayal and vengeance set against the brutality of 14th century France. The film, which opens in theaters nationwide this October, is a cinematic and thought-provoking drama set in the midst of the Hundred Years War that explores the ubiquitous power of men, the frailty of justice and the strength and courage of one woman willing to stand alone in the service of truth. Based on actual events, the film unravels long-held assumptions about France’s last sanctioned duel between Jean de Carrouges and Jacques Le Gris, two friends turned bitter rivals. ​

Pumped for the New Thriller,  'Survive the Game'

9/7/2021

0 Comments

 
Picture
Because we love thrillers and are super pumped they are still getting made in the film world. Let's face it, a good thriller is always worth our while. It takes away from our current reality and allows us to immerse ourselves into an alternate world we will probably never be a part of because ... violence is not the answer. But, it's exhilarating to watch these thrillers. So, here we have Survive the Game, starring Chad Michael Murray, Bruce Willis, Swen Temmel, Sarah Roemer, and more. The film was written by Ross Peacock and directed by James Cullen Bressack. 

Here's the trailer and the official synopsis. 

Synopsis
Bruce Willis (Pulp Fiction) and Chad Michael Murray (“Riverdale”) star in this explosive crime-thriller. When cop David (Willis) is injured in a drug bust gone wrong, his partner, Cal, pursues the two criminals who shot him to a remote farm owned by troubled vet Eric (Murray). As Cal and Eric plot their defense, more of the gang arrives — along with a wounded David — and, outnumbered, the three heroes must use stealth, smarts, and marksmanship to take down the drug-dealing mob.


Available in select theaters, on Apple TV and Everywhere You Rent Movies on October 8th!  Available on Blu-ray and DVD on October 12th!
