"There's too many of 'em." "It's just more targets..." Goldwyn Films has revealed their trailer for Calamity Jane, a western thriller arriving to watch in February. Currently set for release on VOD in about a week from now. After Wild Bill is killed in a poker game, Calamity Jane must break out of prison and seek revenge before the Deadwood's Sheriff can arrest them. Not to be confused with the actual classic western also called Calamity Jane from 1953 starring Doris Day. Directed by Terry Miles, Calamity Jane reunites Arrow co-stars Emily Bett Rickards and Stephen Amell, who star alongside Tim Rozon, Priscilla Faia, Gage Marsh, Garrett Black, Christian Sloan, Troy Mundle, and Spencer Borgeson. I will say that, sure, Emily looks pretty badass in it as a gun-slingin' Calamity Jane, though the rest of the film looks pretty bad. Here's the official trailer (+ poster) for Terry Miles' Calamity Jane, direct from SGF's YouTube: After Wild Bill (Stephen Amell) is killed in a poker game, Calamity Jane (Emily Bett Rickards) must break out of prison and seek her revenge before the ...

"It's not just about football... It's more than just kickin' a ball." Kaleidoscope Ent. in the UK has revealed an official trailer for a sports biopic documentary titled Defoe – a defining portrait of one of England's greatest goal-scorers, Jermain Defoe. As a player for many Premier League teams, this is obviously set for a UK release first, opening in February with a one night screening event and Q&A. Mixing remarkable interviews with Jermain, his family, fellow players and managers, including Harry Redknapp, Peter Crouch, and Joe Cole, and iconic archive footage – this inspiring, honest and unexpectedly heart-warming doc film explores how football gave Jermain Defoe both great success on the pitch and so much more beyond it, offering a fascinating insight into the life and career of one of England's most prolific high-profile scorers. ⚽ Director James Ross adds: "Though I knew his goals on the pitch, I never expected that by asking him to trace his roots and his career, it would reveal such a complex tale of love, loss, trauma and redemption off the pitch." Here's the official ...

"The opposing forces are formidable." Time to battle the Empire! Memento Films has revealed a brand new official trailer for The Empire, the strange French sci-fi film from filmmaker Bruno Dumont. We already posted a trailer for this last year when it was first unveiled. It will premiere at the 2024 Berlin Film Festival next month, perhaps because every other fest rejected it. Bruno Dumont's sci-fi The Empire (aka L'Empire) is set in a quiet fishing village on the Opal Coast in Northern France, and tells the story of a child who is so unique and peculiar it unleashes a secret war between extraterrestrial forces of good and evil. Starring a big French cast including Virginie Efira, Lily-Rose Depp, Camille Cottin, Lyna Khoudri, Anamaria Vartolomei, with Fabrice Luchini. It's a bit weird how this trailer hides so much of the sci-fi until the last few shots at the end, instead focusing on all the French women's bodies. I really wish this looked better because I love ambitious sci-fi, but it looks like it's going be a giant dud. I guess ...
