New Tom & Jerry Image Features Chloë Grace Moretz, Sneak Peek Dropping Monday

Warner Bros. has released a new image from Tom & Jerry, the upcoming animated/live-action hybrid adventure starring Chloë Grace Moretz. Additionally, fans can watch an exclusive sneak peek of the feature film on Cartoon Network, immediately following the premiere of The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part at 6:00 p.m. ET/PT on Monday, February 15. You can check out the full new photo in the gallery below!

One of the most beloved rivalries in history is reignited when Jerry moves into New York City’s finest hotel on the eve of “the wedding of the century,” forcing the event’s desperate planner to hire Tom to get rid of him. The ensuing cat and mouse battle threatens to destroy her career, the wedding, and possibly the hotel itself. But soon, an even bigger problem arises: a diabolically ambitious staffer conspiring against all three of them. An eye-popping blend of classic animation and live-action, Tom and Jerry’s new big-screen adventure stakes new ground for the iconic characters and forces them to do the unthinkable… work together to save the day.

The film will follow Chloë Grace Moretz (Suspiria)’s Kayla, a new employee at the extravagant Park hotel who hires broke alley cat Tom to get rid of mouse Jerry in an attempt to secure her job. Michael Peña (Ant-Man & the Wasp) has signed on to star as Terrance, the deputy general manager of the hotel who acts as a bully to Kayla and begins clashing with his new employee as she impresses upper management with her battle against the animal duo.

In addition to Moretz and Peña, the cast for the film includes Rob Delaney (Deadpool 2), Colin Jost (Saturday Night Live), and Ken Jeong (Crazy Rich Asians). Tim Story is directing for Warner Bros. from a script by Kevin Costello. The Story Company’s Sharla Sumpter Bridgett will also produce the project, while Story, Adam Goodman, Steven Harding, Sam Register, Jesse Ehrman, and Allison Abbate are attached as executive producers.

The film will feature an animated (and silent) Tom and Jerry, whose shenanigans will take place in a live-action world. This is the first in a series of similarly designed projects from WB with the others being Space Jam 2 from producers Ryan Coogler, Maverick Carter, and LeBron James; Scooby-Doo, which Chris Columbus is currently overseeing; and a Wile E. Coyote vs. ACME hybrid feature, with Chris McKay from the LEGO universe as creative supervisor.

Tom & Jerry is slated to hit theaters on February 26, 2021, and will be available in the U.S. on HBO Max for 31 days from the theatrical release.

IFC Films acquires Gia Coppola’s second directorial effort Mainstream

IFC Films has announced that the studio has acquired the North American rights to the second directorial effort from Palo Alto filmmaker Gia Coppola, Mainstream, featuring an ensemble cast led by Andrew Garfield (Hacksaw Ridge) and Maya Hawke (Stranger Things).

Co-written by Coppola and Tom Stuart, the film centers on a young woman (Hawke) thinks she’s found a path to internet stardom when she starts making YouTube videos with a charismatic stranger (Garfield) – until the dark side of viral celebrity threatens to ruin them both.

“Gia Coppola’s Mainstream is a bold and innovative film that captures the excitement and discord of the current social media environs with an entertaining wit,” Arianna Bocco, President of IFC Films, said in a statement. “We are thrilled to partner with Gia and her great producing team to bring these viral worthy performances to theaters and digital this summer.”

Alongside the Oscar nominee and Hawke, the ensemble cast for the film includes Nat Wolff (The Stand, Death Note), Johnny Knoxville (Jackass, We Summon the Darkness), Jason Schwartzman (Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, Rushmore) and Alexa Demie (Euphoria, Waves).

“I’m very excited to partner with the IFC team,” Coppola said in a statement. “Not only have they worked with filmmakers and projects I deeply admire, but I really love and appreciate their innovative ideas on the film’s release. I’m so proud of everyone involved in the making of this movie, and I especially can’t wait for people to see Andrew’s radical performance!”

Mainstream is produced by Automatik’s Fred Berger, Lauren Bratman, Coppola via her family’s American Zoetrope banner, Garfield, Jack Heller and Scott Veltri of Assemble Media, Siena Oberman for Artemis, Francisco Rebelo De Andrade, Enrico Saravia, Alan Terpins via Tugawood and Zac Weinstein for Dynasty.

The film, which had its world premiere at the 2020 Venice Film Festival, is set to hit select theaters and digital platforms on May 7.

Adam Wingard tapped to co-write/direct Face/Off remake at Paramount

A little over a year after announcing the project was in development, Paramount’s remake of the hit John Woo action-thriller Face/Off is gaining steam as Godzilla vs. Kong director Adam Wingard has signed on to co-write/direct the film, according to Variety.

The remake is set to be helmed by Wingard, who will co-write the script with frequent collaborator Simon Barrett, whose previous credits include the 2016 found footage horror sequel Blair Witch, the 2014 Dan Stevens-led thriller The Guest, the 2011 horror-comedy You’re Next and 2010 horror A Horrible Way to Die, all of which were helmed by Wingard.

Released in 1997 and directed by Woo on a script from Mike Werb (The Mask) and Michael Colleary (Lara Croft: Tomb Raider), the original film starred John Travolta as FBI agent Sean Archer and Nicolas Cage as freelance terrorist and sociopath Castor Troy, arch enemies on each side of the law. When Troy plants a nuclear bomb in Los Angeles but being knocked into a coma during the FBI’s apprehension of him, Archer must go undercover as Troy with his crew utilizing a special new technology that allows him to surgically swap faces with the terrorist. Though when Troy wakes up and finds his face gone, he takes on Archer’s identity, leading to a race against time to keep the other from destroying their life.

Alongside Travolta and Cage, the cast for the film included Joan Allen (The Bourne Trilogy), Alessandro Nivola (The Many Saints of Newark), Gina Gershon (Don’t Look Up), Dominique Swain (Alpha Dog), Nick Cassavetes (Prisoners of the Ghostland), Colm Feore (For All Mankind) and CCH Pounder (NCIS: New Orleans).

Upon its summer 1997 release, the film received rave reviews from critics for the performances from its leads and hyper-stylized action sequences helmed by Woo and garnered an Oscar nomination for Best Sound Effects Editing and grossed over $245 million at the global box office.

Exclusive: Noah Centineo talks working with Dwayne Johnson in Black Adam

While speaking with Noah Centineo about his upcoming Netflix movie To All the Boys: Always and Forever, ComingSoon.net had a chance to ask Centineo about his impending DC role as Al Rothstein, aka Atom Smasher, in Warner Bros.’ Black Adam, and his excitement about starring alongside Dwayne Johnson. You can check out what Centineo had to say about the project in the player below!

During its appearance at last year’s DC FanDome event, it was revealed that the film would feature the appearances of Hawkman, Doctor Fate, and Cyclone to set up the Justice Society of America, while also bringing word that Hawkgirl would have to remain absent for the time being. Over the years, many superheroines have assumed the secret identity of Hawkgirl. The only recurring element is her partner/romantic interest Hawkman since it’s nearly impossible to see one without the other. Recently, fans saw the Shiera Sanders Hall version of Hawkgirl as part of the Justice Society of America in the Stargirl television series. Sadly, she lost her life to Brainwave on the night the Injustice Society attacked the JSA headquarters.

In addition to Quintessa Swindell’s (Trinkets) Cyclone, the film will also include Noah Centineo (To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before) as Atom Smasher and Aldis Hodge (The Invisible Man) as Hawkman, with Doctor Fate also slated to appear in the film though an actor has yet to be officially cast in the role.

Dwayne Johnson has been working on Black Adam for 10 years. The character was originally supposed to appear in this year’s Shazam! but decided to save his highly-anticipated debut for a later film in order to let each character get some breathing room. However, despite not appearing in Shazam!, his character was teased with the wizard Shazam, played by Djimon Hounsou (Guardians of the Galaxy), telling his origin story to Billy Batson.

Based on the DC Comics character created by Otto Binder and C.C. Beck, Black Adam will be directed by Jaume Collet-Serra (The Shallows) with Johnson starring as the titular anti-hero and Adam Sztykiel having written the current script. Noah Centineo will play Atom Smasher in the movie. The film will be the second collaboration between Collet-Serra and Johnson, who have also been working together on Disney’s forthcoming adventure film Jungle Cruise.

The film will be produced by Johnson and FlynnPicturesCo’s Beau Flyn along with Dany Garcia and Hiram Garcia of Seven Bucks Productions. Scott Sheldon will be overseeing the project for FlynnPictureCo.

Black Adam was slated to hit theaters on December 22, 2021, but was recently pushed back to an unspecified release date due to production delays from the global pandemic.
