The BBC recently released a trailer for The War of the Worlds, a new adaptation of H. G. Wells‘ 1898 novel of the same name.

This latest adaptation, written by Peter Harness, is a miniseries which will play out in three parts. It stars Eleanor Tomlinson, Rafe Spall, Freya Allan, Rupert Graves, and Robert Carlyle, with Craig Viveiros directing all three episodes.

More info on the BBC’s War of the Worlds can be found below along with the trailer.

When the first Jack The Giant Slayer trailer came out a few months back it was met with overwhelmingly negative reviews, which prompted Warner Bros. to push back the film’s release from June 2012 all the way to March 2013. Now the studio has released a new trailer in hopes that you will be swayed to watch this giant fairy tale adaptation.

Check out the latest trailer for Bryan Singer‘s Jack The Giant Trailer here below.

The film stars Nicholas Hoult (X-Men: First Class) as Jack, a humble farmer who must rescue a princess (Eleanor Tomlinson) and save the kingdom from a hoard of giants. Ewan McGregor, Stanley Tucci, Bill Nighy, Ian McShane and Warwick Davis also star.

It’s being reported that Deadwood star Ian McShane has joined the cast of X-Men and The Usual Suspects director Bryan Singer‘s upcoming movie, Jack the Giant Killer, which is a brand new take on the tale of Jack and the Beanstalk.

McShane will play King Brahmwell, ruler of the lands and father to the princess (Eleanor Tomlinson) who is taken by a giant. The princess’s capture sees a lowly farm boy (Nicholas Hoult) set off with a team to rescue her, despite the king’s dislike of his daughter being so close to someone not of equal standing. The mission also risks breaking a fragile peace agreement between the humans and giants.
