Where I Slap You Upside the Head with Gorgeous New Looks of Really Pretty People in Movies that Look Really Great

  • Here is your first look at Val Kilmer and Elle Fanning in Francis Ford Coppola’s Twixt, a horror movie about a burnt-out mystery writer (Kilmer) who gets mixed up in murder and evil in a California town. (The Playlist)

  • Here is another look at Ryan Gosling in The Ides of March. The political thriller directed by George Clooney will also star Philip Seymour Hoffman, Paul Giamatti, Marisa Tomei, and Evan Rachel Wood, as well as Clooney. (The Playlist)

  • Here’s what Jude Law looks like with Rachel Weisz in 360, the new film by Fernando Meirelles (City of God). Anthony Hopkins and Ben Foster also star, and it looks to be another one of those profound (or faux-profound) interweaving storyline films. (The Playlist)

  • This is what Michael Fassbender and Carey Mulligan look like in Shame, which comes from director Steve McQueen (Hunger). I think the movie is about Fassbender’s addiction to sex. NO, REALLY. (Slashfilm)

    Here’s another one, because one picture can’t contain all the beauty of Carey Mulligan.

  • Speaking of beautiful people, here’s a few looks at Sarah Polley’s new film, Take This Waltz, which is a bittersweet story about a married woman struggling to choose between her husband and a man she’s just met. Michelle Williams will play the woman, Seth Rogen will play the husband, and Luke Kirby plays the man she just met. (The Playlist)

    Finally, I leave you with even more pretty: Here is Rachel Weisz and Tom Hiddleston in Deep Blue Sea, about a woman whose overpowering, obsessive love alienates the men around her and destroys her well-being.

    I should also note that, all of the above films will be playing at this year’s Toronto International Film Festival, which is brimming with promising films this year. Unfortunately, yours truly missed the press accreditation deadline, and the process by which one secures regular tickets to screenings is unduly expensive, confusing, and cumbersome for anyone living outside of Toronto.

    Is it just me or does that close-up of Carey Mulligan look like Lea Thompson in Back To The Future when she was wearing her "middle-aged" make-up?

  • Hi Tom Hiddleston.

    And that shot is even sine the smiling dimple.

    Is the Fanning person supposed to be the pretty one in the Coppola movie?

    Because Val Kilmer looks like he is on the way to a Halloween party dressed as Steven Segal: The Medicare Years

    Michael Fassbender is amazing in Hunger and will be great in this new one too.

    Posted by: nile at July 26, 2011 4:54 PM

    Those are lovely shot of Mulligan. ("SALLY SPARROW!" my daughter always shouts.)

    But what I'm really excited to see is her wardrobe and styling for Gatsby. Daisy is so wispy and Mulligan is so... not.

    You had me at Fassbender and Sex.

    Funny, I was thinking she looks like Tina Majorino in a wig.

    Michelle Williams?

    I thought it was supposed to be REALLY pretty people.

    Elle Fanning looks like a blonde version of the scary girl from The Ring.

    Posted by: Phibbsy at July 26, 2011 5:41 PM

    "George Clooney... Philip Seymour Hoffman, Paul Giamatti, Marisa Tomei, and Evan Rachel Wood.."


    A veritable who's who of moderate Box-Office returns.

    Wrong! It's Stockard Channing from 50 years ago.

    TOM HIDDLESTON 4EVAR.

    unfortunately netflix has very little in its tom hiddleston collection, but what it does have is on my queue or already watched.

    Posted by: janellest at July 26, 2011 6:49 PM

    oh i forgot to mention...

    RACHEL WEISZ 4EVAR

    i hope my anticipation of this pairing doesn't result in a confused disappointment like atonement did.

    Posted by: janellest at July 26, 2011 6:51 PM

    Mmmmm...Tom Hiddleston.

    Posted by: MRod at July 26, 2011 7:13 PM


    the only film star to go downhill faster than val kilmer is
    kathleen turner.

    Posted by: snake at July 26, 2011 7:20 PM

    Deep Blue Sea is not a remake? I was looking forward to pretty mako sharks. Instead I get this Hiddleston character.

    Posted by: ed newman at July 26, 2011 7:21 PM

    Michelle Williams is the prettiest of them all. Sorry, Sally

    Posted by: sailboat at July 26, 2011 7:37 PM

    Elle Fanning looks otherworldly.......

    Posted by: kirbyjay at July 26, 2011 8:13 PM

    Well HELLO, Loki! Nice. :)

    Posted by: luthien26 at July 26, 2011 8:13 PM

    Carey Mulligan looks like Stockard Channing in that pic.

    "SALLY SPARROW!" my daughter always shouts.

    You have a very cool daughter, Grandma.

    Posted by: Uriah Creep at July 26, 2011 10:28 PM

    Sorry to beat a dead horse, but....

    "Michelle Williams will play the woman, Seth Rogen will play the husband"

    Sigh. No, don't match her with a looks-appropriate dude who has acting talent - match her with Seth fucking Rogen instead. Jesus. I want a SINGLE movie where a gorgeous man is paired with not a woman less attractive than he is, but a straight-up dumpy woman.

    Posted by: samantha t at July 26, 2011 10:33 PM

    Thank you, Uriah Creep! She is the very coolest. And even though she's 13 she still likes me, so I'm double lucky! Of course, that could just be because I foot the bill for art supplies and Shirt Woot tees...

    Posted by: Young_Grandma_Ben at July 26, 2011 11:07 PM

    Are we sure that's Carey Mulligan in the bar shot with Fassdong? It sure doesn't look like her. At all.

    Posted by: Even Stevens at July 26, 2011 11:11 PM

    I'm pretty sure it's this actress in that picture:

    Posted by: Even Stevens at July 26, 2011 11:13 PM

    I have to agree re: Mulligan. When I first saw the photo, I was pretty sure that was Stockard Channing.

    Also, Hiddleston was in my top 5 freebies list, so I get dibs. DIBS!

    Posted by: llp at July 26, 2011 11:32 PM

    So Michelle Williams gets to choose between Seth Rogen and what looks to be an effete Luke Kirby? Really? She can't do better than that?

    On a good note, most of these other movies look very good indeed (on a purely superficial level).

    Posted by: jimbob at July 27, 2011 9:51 AM

    It feels like there has to be at least twelve films called Deep Blue Sea.

    Posted by: John G. at July 27, 2011 12:41 PM

    Hiddles and Fassbender in one post? *stamp of approval*
