Prohibition, gangsters, brothers, Virginia, moonshine, a sadistic lawman, violence, lust, love and family...

That's some of the things you'll find in 'Lawless' directed by John Hillcoat ('The Road') and written by songwriter/musician Nick Cave (The Proposition). The film is based on Matt Bondurant's book 'The Wettest County in the World' which is his fictionalized account of his family.

The film tells the story of the infamous Bondurant brothers, Forrest, (Tom Hardy), Howard (Jason Clarke) and the youngest sibling, Jack (Shia LaBeouf) who made and sold moonshine in the 30's. They lived in...

The final installment of Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy, The Dark Knight Rises, is upon us; and much like Heath Ledger's Joker the film's villains are once again posed to steal the show.

This time around we'll be reintroduced to three bad guys: Bane, (Tom Hardy), Catwoman (Anne Hathaway) and Ra's al Ghul (Liam Neeson). Both Bane and Catwoman made their first appearances in the original film run that Tim Burton started in the 1990s (and, fortunately, we'll be seeing a much different Bane in TDKR); and Ra's al Ghul returns to the series after his intro in Batman Begins.

But where do the...

The cast from "The Dark Knight Rises" jetted from New York City on Tuesday to London on Wednesday for the European premiere of the highly anticipated film.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt looked playful yet dapper in a polka dot tie and navy blue suit. Fuzzy faced Christian Bale and his wife wore matching black ensembles.

Anne Hathaway, who plays the sultry catwoman, opted for a long gold shift dress embellished at the neckline with various baubles and beaded flowers.

Morgan Freeman was too cool for school in sunglasses and a purple button-down shirt beneath his black suit.

Celebrities came out in full force for "The Dark Knight Rises" world premiere in New York City on Monday night. Anne Hathaway, who plays catwoman, looked glamorous in a long white, low-cut gown with silver sequins on the bodice.

Marion Cotillard also wore white, and resembled a ballerina in a flouncy frock paired with strappy high heels.

Christian Bale donned a black and white suit and was accompanied by his wife Sibi Blazic.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt opted for a gray suit with a skinny red tie - a stark contrast to Gary Oldman who wore a brown suit with a blue button-down shirt. The always c...

On July 20, the caped crusader returns in "The Dark Knight Rises." Warner Bros. just released some new film stills from the highly anticipated series conclusion.

Bale recently admitted he will miss stepping into the superhero costume. He told Collider, "For all the discomfort and the heat and the sweat and the headaches and everything from it, when you sit back and watch the movie at the end of the day, you go, 'Well, that's f**kin' c...

Sam Worthington is the actor most likely to step into James Bond's shoes when Daniel Craig hangs up his Walther PPK, according to Britain's leading bookmaker.

Craig is currently shooting scenes for his third outing as the suave superspy in Skyfall, which is due for release in 2014, and shows no signs of retiring from the role.

However, when he eventually moves on from the 007 franchise, Avatar actor Worthington - who was born in Britain but grew up in Australia - is hot favorite to take over the coveted part, followed by English actor Tom Hardy and Shame star Michael Fassbender.

Aussie supermodel Abbey Lee Kershaw has replaced actress Teresa Palmer in director George Miller's "Mad Max" revamp.

Palmer was forced to drop out of the delayed project due to reported scheduling conflicts, and her departure gives Kershaw the chance to make her acting debut opposite Tom Hardy and Charlize Theron.

An insider tells the Daily Telegraph that the model will portray a post-apocalyptic woman caged like a bird for her beauty.

Cameras on "Mad Max: Fury Road," which was to have started filming last year, are expected to roll this summer.

Liam Neeson will reprise his role of Ra's Al Ghul for "The Dark Knight Rises," ending months of speculation about his casting in the eagerly awaited blockbuster.

Neeson's character was killed off in 2005's "Batman Begins" but there have been several rumors about the villain's return in Christopher Nolan's final Caped Crusader movie.

And his appearance was finally confirmed in the production notes of his fantasy epic "Wrath of Titans." The press notes state, "Neeson next appears in Peter Berg's actioner Battleship, and he also will be seen in Christopher Nolan's much-anticipated action thr...

Director Tomas Alfredson takes the helm for an adaptation of John Le Carre's novel "Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy" about an ex-British agent who emerges from retirement to expose a mole in MI6.

England, 1973: British Secret Intelligence Service (SIS) head Control (John Hurt) and his top-ranking lieutenant George Smiley (Gary Oldman) are both forced into retirement after a mission involving respected secret agent Jim Prideaux (Mark Strong) turns unexpectedly deadly. As the Cold War continues to escalate, suspicions of a Soviet double agent begin to grow within SIS.

British actor Tom Hardy is preparing to brave icy conditions as he drives across Siberia to raise money for a homeless charity.

The Inception star is a patron of U.K. organization FLACK, which helps the homeless by involving them in the production of a monthly magazine, and he is aiming to raise $48,000 by embarking on a journey across the isolated Russian region.

Hardy has set up an internet donation page on Justgiving.com and he's urging fans to donate whatever they can to help.

In a post on the page, he writes "I've been supporting !...

"So please do cheer me on as I brave the Si...

Reese Witherspoon has a mean streak that gets her into trouble - she laughs about other people's misfortune.

The star admits she finds it hilarious when friends and loved ones fall over - and her odd sense of humor is becoming a real problem.

Appearing on late night show Conan, she reveals she accidentally shot her "This Means War" co-star Tom Hardy in the crotch with a paintball during the making of the movie - and couldn't stop laughing.

She said, "I burst out laughing in the middle of the scene... It happens to me all the time and it's terrible... My husband will fall down and I just ...

Two Jews on Film - By Joan Alperin Schwartz: Okay, so we have this cute girl who meets a sexy guy for coffee and they hit it off. A few minutes later (give or take) the same girl, meets another sexy guy, and they also hit it off.

Now in any normal situation, the girl would probably date both guys, right? Well, in 'This Means War' directed by McG, that's not so simple.

The girl is Lauren Scott (Reese Witherspoon) and the two guys are FDR (Chris Pine) and Tuck (Tom Hardy). They happen to be, unbeknownst to Lauren, BFF'S and CIA operatives.

Lauren has a successful career as a senior pr...

Last week I got to see three of the films coming out: “Safe House,” “The Vow,” and “Rampart.” I didn’t absolutely love any of them, but the one I found most enjoyable was “Safe House.” If you haven’t read my thoughts already, check out my review. I haven’t had a chance to write up ones for the others yet, so keep a look out for those later this week.

Arriving in theaters this week are the unnecessary Nicolas Cage sequel “Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance,” the romantic spy comedy “This Means War,” the inspirational documentary “Undefeated,” the anime adventure “The Secret World of Arrie...

Reese Witherspoon attended the "This Means War" U.K. premiere in London last night wearing a bright green sequined dress. We think she looked cute in a leprechaun sort of way. What do you think?

In the film two top CIA spies (Chris Pine and Tom Hardy) find their enduring friendship put to the ultimate test when they engage in an all-out war to win the affections of a beautiful woman (Witherspoon).

Chelsea Handler's bawdy jokes were recently cut from the film in a bid to land a PG-13 rating. The film opens on Feb. 14.

Chelsea Handler's bawdy jokes have been cut from pal Reese Witherspoon's new movie in a bid to land the film a PG-13 rating.

Movie executives lost an appeal to lower the restrictive age rating of spy comedy "This Means War" on Thursday and it was slapped with an R-rating, which prohibits film fans under the age of 18 from seeing the movie without an adult.

But reports suggest officials at the Motion Picture Association ratings board have reconsidered the rating after Fox bosses agreed to cut out Handler's risque gags.

The film, which also stars Chris Pine and Tom Hardy as love rival coll...

Tom Hardy has helped save a homeless charity in his native U.K. from closure by spearheading a $72,000 fundraising campaign.

The star is a patron of FLACK Cambridge, an organization which needed the cash to survive.

Hardy took on the campaign and urged his fans to donate to the cause - and he's celebrating after smashing the total.

In a post on his fundraising page, he writes, "100% thank you so much. still needs our support - if you haven't already donated please do."

British actor Tom Hardy is in talks to play Al Capone in the upcoming gangster trilogy Cicero.

The Inception star is close to finalizing a deal to step into the infamous mobster's shoes in filmmaker David Yates' next project, which will chart Capone's childhood in Brooklyn, New York and his rise to power.

The first of the three movies is due to begin production next year, according to TheWrap.com.

It's the latest high-profile leading part for Hardy, who will next be seen playing the villainous Bane in Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight Rises in July.

Disney XD’s Mr. Young is a show about a child prodigy who returns to school to teach kids his own age. I recently had a chance to talk to Brendan Meyer, the star of Mr. Young. Here’s what went down.

Q: The lead in a TV show is an opportunity most actors spend an entire career waiting for; what has it been like for you to achieve this at such a young age?

Brendan Meyer: It has been a real thrill to achieve a success like this. I did a lot of work in Film/TV in 2006-2008, but in the year before Mr. Young I didn't work a lot. So, I was really able to appreciate what I got with this role. A...

I’m all for films that take their time. There’s nothing quite like the bravery of a picture that dares to engage by fleshing out those quiet moments and infusing character insights that longingly linger. In his previous film "Let The Right One In," Swedish filmmaker Tomas Alfredson wielded this delicate bravado like a master swordsman, bringing his slow and methodic style to the done-to-death tale of vampires to illicit freshness. Problem is that in his latest outing "Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy" the long book and material upon which the film is based and the unrushed pacing of Alfredso...

For starters, the cast is amazing: Gary Oldman (in the role that will most likely finally win him an Oscar), Colin Firth, Tom Hardy, Mark Strong, Toby Jones and John Hurt. Aside from a group of some of the ...

Fans are having interesting reactions to People Magazine's selection of Bradley Cooper as Sexiest Man Alive. Some good and some confused. I'm hearing talk of a facebook group requesting a recall of the winner. Some actors have having their fans go into overdrive posting on the internet how People got it wrong. Here are some possible candidates should People do a California recall on Bradley Cooper:

Michael Fassbender: Cooper is cute but Fassbender is like Adonis! Ironically, they got the wrong Cooper. Fassbender is Cooper in German. Maybe its a mix up?

Gerard Butler: This is Scotland's ...

Chances are, if you're anything like us you can't wait until July 20, 2012 when The Dark Knight Rises comes to theaters, wrapping up Christopher Nolan's intense Batman trilogy.

The film's star, Christian Bale, was spotted donning a "new and improved" Batsuit while filming scenes on Wall Street in New York City on Monday. He was joined by co-stars Matthew Modine, who plays a corrupt cop named Nixon, and Tom Hardy who plays Bat super-villain Bane.

During the filming of one scene, several "Tumblers" - the desert-camouflaged version of the Batmobile - were spotted on the street during a key G...

Chaos descended on the streets of New York City this week as director Christopher Nolan filmed riot scenes for his new Batman movie.

Shocked bystanders watched as a crowd of extras and actors waving fake guns charged along a Manhattan road in a scene for The Dark Knight Rises, which stars Christian Bale as the Caped Crusader.

Almost 1,000 extras, along with actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt wearing a Gotham City Police Department uniform, took part in the shoot close to the city's financial district.
