Crisis Zero is impending, according to a new faux public service announcement promoting next month's World War Z.

Is World War Z is a zombie movie or a Brad Pitt movie?

According to a new international featurette promoting the upcoming event film, it's both.  It's a Brad Pitt zombie movie.

Pandemic!  Got that Pandemic!

Paramount Pictures has unveiled a new theatrical trailer and a pretty striking one sheet for World War Z, spraying some lighter fluid on the flames of hype for this very loose adaptation of the book by Max Brooks.

Opening in theaters on March 8th is the new World War II movie Emperor from director Peter Webber (Girl with a Pearl Earring). The film is based on a true story and features an excellent cast that includes Academy Award-winner Tommy Lee Jones (The Fugitive, Men in Black 3) as General Douglas MacArthur, and Matthew Fox (Alex Cross) as General Bonner Fellers.

IAR's Managing Editor Jami Philbrick recently had the daunting task of sitting down with Oscar-winner Matthew Fox to talk about his work on Emperor. The popular actor discussed his new film, playing a historical character, the research he did into the life of General Bonner Fellers, his first reaction to reading the screenplay, collaborating with director Peter Webber to make the film as accurate as possible, how that attention to detail helped his performance, and working opposite legendary actor Tommy Lee Jones.

IAR's Managing Editor Jami Philbrick recently had the daunting task of sitting down with Oscar-winner Tommy Lee Jones to talk about his work on Emperor, as well as his upcoming directorial project The Homesman. The notoriously intimidating actor discussed his new film, playing a historical character, his research into the life of General Douglas MacArthur, what he learned that surprised him, working with filmmaker Peter Webber, his next directing project - The Homesman, what it is about, the challenge of finding good scripts, and why he doesn't choose favorites when it comes to looking back on his distinguished career. 

On Tuesday, Paramount Pictures did one of those "trailer for a trailer" deals that are increasingly common but no less annoying.  That tease for the World War Z trailer pays off today with the very first theatrical trailer for the zombie epic starring Brad Pitt.  Fans of fast zombies and large scale urban destruction are in for a treat, while anyone still hoping that World War Z would faithfully adapt Max Brooks's source material is bound to be bummed.

In order to ensure that we're all paying attention come Thursday when the full trailer arrives online, the first footage from World War Z has landed online.  It's exceedingly teaser-y, but given that it's the first glimpse of Marc Forster's less-than-smoothly-made zombie epic, it's worth checking out.

Opening in theaters on October 19th is the new crime thriller Alex Cross from director Rob Cohen (xXx), which is based on the extremely popular series of novels by James Patterson. This is the third time that Patterson's protagonist has been featured in a film and was previously portrayed by Oscar-winner Morgan Freeman in both Kiss the Girls and Along Came a Spider. Alex Cross stars Tyler Perry (Madea's Big Happy Family) in the title role along with an all-star cast that includes Matthew Fox (Speed Racer), Edward Burns (Man on a Ledge), Rachel Nichols (Conan the Barbarian), Jean Reno (Ronin), John C. McGinley (Office Space), Giancarlo Esposito (The Usual Suspects), and Cicely Tyson (The Help). 

IAR's Managing Editor Jami Philbrick recently had an opportunity to sit down and talk with author James Patterson about Alex Cross. The popular author discussed the new film, casting Tyler Perry, why he thinks this is the best Alex Cross film yet, consulting on set, director Rob Cohen, Matthew Fox's disturbing villain, and which of his books he'd like to see adapted into a possible sequel.
