Chris Hemsworth Eyes Lead Role in Disney’s “Prince Charming” Film https://omgcheckitout.com/chris-hemsworth-eyes-lead-role-in-disneys-prince-charming-film/ Thu, 24 Oct 2024 06:32:00 +0000 https://omgcheckitout.com/?p=42362 We’ve seen Chris Hemsworth play many iconic characters over the years, and Prince Charming may be the next one in line. Paul King is plotting a new film inspired by this dreamy character for Disney, and the Australian superstar is in talks to play the lead role.

Paul King is developing this project for Disney, with Simon Farnaby and Jon Croker writing the screenplay by his side. This film is right down King’s alley since he’s best known as the writer/director of the Paddington franchise, in addition to recently working on the acclaimed musical Wonka starring Timothée Chalamet.

Not much is known about this project apart from the creative team behind it. It’s unclear if the film will be live-action or animated and if the titular Prince Charming will be an original character or explore the origin story of one of the love interests from Disney’s beloved classics, such as Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, and Snow White.

Hemsworth is no stranger to starring in fairy tale-themed films, having previously played the Huntsman in Snow White and the Huntsman and its sequel The Huntsman: Winter’s War. He’s best known for portraying Thor in several MCU blockbusters, and his recent credits include Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga and Transformers One.

Anya Taylor-Joy Embarks on an Epic Journey in New “Furiosa” Trailer https://omgcheckitout.com/anya-taylor-joy-embarks-on-an-epic-journey-in-new-furiosa-trailer/ Wed, 20 Mar 2024 06:45:00 +0000 https://omgcheckitout.com/?p=41940 Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga is one of the most exciting new films coming our way this spring, and expectations are running high. Anya Taylor-Joy stars in the new trailer for this post-apocalyptic blockbuster, which sees the young Furiosa embarking on an epic journey to find her way back home.

Furiosa takes place years before the events of Mad Max: Fury Road and it sees young Furiosa falling into the hands of a great Biker Horde led by the Warlord Dementus after being snatched from the Green Place of Many Mothers.

“Sweeping through the Wasteland, they come across the Citadel presided over by The Immortan Joe. While the two Tyrants war for dominance, Furiosa must survive many trials as she puts together the means to find her way home,” reads the film’s official synopsis.

Anya Taylor-Joy replaced Charlize Theron as the younger version of Furiosa, and she’ll be joined by Chris Hemsworth as Warlord Dementus. Tom Burke, Alyla Browne, Nathan Jones, Angus Sampson, Quaden Bayles, Daniel Webber, and Lachy Hulme also star in supporting roles.

Furiosa is the fifth installment in the Mad Max franchise, and it sees George Miller returning as director and co-writer alongside Nico Lathouris. It will be released on May 24 via Warner Bros. Pictures.

Bad Bunny, Chris Hemsworth, Jennifer Lopez, and Zendaya have been announced as the co-chairs of the upcoming Met Gala, with the theme “The Garden of Time”.

According to Vogue’s official announcement, this year’s co-chairs are meant to reflect a variety of career achievements, and all have distinct style histories with the Met Gala. Zendaya, Lopez, Bad Bunny, and Hemsworth will be joined by Vogue’s editor-in-chief Anna Wintour.

As for the theme, “The Garden of Time” has been chosen as this year’s dress code, and it’s meant to celebrate the Costume Institute’s new exhibition, “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion”. It features approximately 250 rare items spanning over 400 years of fashion history, some too fragile to ever be worn again.

The exhibition will use the elements of video animation, light projection, AI, CGI, and other forms of sensory stimulation to make these historical garments truly pop, and we’re expecting to see a lot of dreamy and whimsical looks on the red carpet.

The 2024 Met Gala will take place on May 6 at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, with Loewe creative director Jonathan Anderson and TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew serving as honorary chairs.

Marvel Drops First Trailer for “Thor: Love and Thunder” https://omgcheckitout.com/marvel-drops-first-trailer-for-thor-love-and-thunder/ Tue, 19 Apr 2022 06:19:00 +0000 https://omgcheckitout.com/?p=39243 Marvel fans spent five years waiting for a follow-up to Thor: Ragnarok and Taika Waititi finally answered their prayers. The first trailer for Thor: Love and Thunder is here and it managed to exceed our wildest expectations.

As with most Marvel movies, the first trailer promises a perfect blend between action and humor, with high emotional stakes. The trailer opens with Thor running through the woods, first as a child and a teenager, before transforming into the all-mighty Good of Thunder that we know him as today.

He announces that his “superheroing days are over” and that he’s planning to use his hands as “tools of peace”, but it will take some time before he gives up saving the world for good. He must join forces with some of his former allies to stop Gorr the God Butcher from eliminating all gods including Jane Foster, who takes control of Mjolnir as the Mighty Thor.

In addition to Chris Hemsworth and Natalie Portman, Thor: Love and Thunder will also star Tessa Thompson, Christian Bale, and the cast of Guardians of the Galaxy, including Chris Pratt, Dave Bautista, and Karen Gillan.

Chris Hemsworth Almost Quit Ghostbusters https://omgcheckitout.com/chris-hemsworth-almost-quit-ghostbusters/ Sat, 01 Jun 2019 05:15:18 +0000 https://omgcheckitout.com/?p=31988 Chris Hemsworth almost didn’t star in the 2016 Ghostbusters reboot. 

The film that featured a female Ghostbusters team starred Melissa McCarthy, Kate McKinnon, Kristen Wiig, and Leslie Jones and their clueless assistant, Kevin (Hemsworth). 

The Avengers: Endgame star has some serious doubts concerning the role, as he thought there was no depth to the character. 

“The night before I was shooting, I almost pulled out,” Hemsworth told the outlet. “Three or four weeks prior, Paul [Feig] said to me, ‘I’m going to write up the character. Don’t worry.’ And then I got the script and nothing had changed.”

But then his agent set up a last-minute meeting with Feig, who told Hemsworth that he’ll have lots to do with the character via improvisation.

“I was really scared walking onto that set,” Hemsworth added. “I had no real plan, so I was just feeding off of them, and I just felt ridiculous. So I used that.”

Hemsworth also shared with the outlet that he’s still quite upset about the backlash the film suffered, partly because the Ghostbusters team was played by women.

“That whole period I was like, ‘What ownership do you guys have over those characters?’” Hemsworth said. “‘Oh, you watched the film, therefore you should have a say over where it goes?’ I thought it was very unfortunate and kind of disappointing.”

Chris Hemsworth and Tiffany Haddish to Star in “Down Under Cover” https://omgcheckitout.com/chris-hemsworth-and-tiffany-haddish-to-star-in-down-under-cover/ Thu, 09 May 2019 10:53:58 +0000 https://omgcheckitout.com/?p=31571 Chris Hemsworth and Tiffany Haddish seem like a match made in heaven, and we’ll soon get to see them alongside each other in a buddy-cop comedy Down Under Cover.

This exciting project has been compared to Rush Hour and The Heat, and the script will be written by relative newcomer Peter Hoare.

Down Under Cover centers on a detective, played by Hemsworth, who goes undercover to solve a series of mysterious casino heists. He’s forced to work with a lone wolf detective, played by Haddish, who always has to have her way and has a hard time co-operating with others.

This film has been recently presented to buyers at the Cannes Film Festival, and we’re yet to see which studio will take the bait. Hemsworth and Haddish both have a pretty great track record, and a perfect comedic timing, and we’re pretty sure it will be exciting to see them working side by side.
