| New ‘Seventh Son’ Trailer, Poster, and PhotosWe got a glimpse at Seventh Son back in July 2013 at SDCC when the film was supposed to be released the following January. That didn’t happen, for various reasons, but now Legendary Pictures has released a new trailer, poster, and photos for the movie. Check them out here below. Loosely based on The Last Apprentice: Revenge of the Witch (the U.S. title), the first book in Joseph Delaney’s The Wardstone Chronicles series of novels, the Sergei Bodrov-directed fantasy-adventure stars Jeff Bridges, Ben Barnes, Julianne Moore, Djimon Hounsou, and Kit Harrington (the Game Of Thrones star didn’t make in on to the poster). Seventh Son is now scheduled for a release in 3D and IMAX 3D on February 6, 2015, with Legendary’s new partner Universal Pictures as the distributor.

| SDCC 2013: ‘Seventh Son’ Panel |
|
Swords. Dragons. Magic. These are elements that can be found in a lot of successful properties these days, from The Hobbit to Game of Thrones. Warner Brothers and Legendary Pictures are staking their claim on the fantasy genre with Seventh Son, based on The Wardstone Chronicles series of novels by Joseph Delany. The film stars Jeff Bridges, Antje Traue (Man of Steel), Kit Harington (Game of Thrones), and Ben Barnes (The Chronicles Of Narnia: Prince Caspian), who were all on hand at San Diego Comic-Con today to discuss the movie. Joining the actors was director Sergei Bodrov, and they all had a wealth of information to share on the film. Jeff Bridges came out first, and he explained the basic plot of the story, saying that it is “chock full ‘o myth” and magic. Then we got a solid chunk of footage put together for Comic-Con from the film, with the main characters fighting a giant boggard, fighting dragons, fighting witches, basically lots of fighting. Ben Barnes’ character, Tom Ward, becomes the apprentice to Jeff Bridges character, Master Gregory. The plot deals with Master Jeremy and Ward face down a horrible witch played by Julianne Moore. The clip was filled with a lot of excitement and all the classic elements of great fantasy films.

| Legendary Pictures Bringing ‘Mass Effect’ Movie To Comic–Con |
|
We all know how bad movies based on games tend to be (and vice versa), but there are some games out there that, if done correctly, could make some pretty fantastic movies. One of the big ones that jumps to mind is the Mass Effect trilogy. One of the biggest game series to-date, the BioWare property takes the action–RPG to incredible places, making for an intense and compelling story and a truly must–play experience for any gamer out there. A Mass Effect movie has been whispered about for a while now, dating back to around when Mass Effect 2 was being released where Casey Hudson was quoted saying “Obviously we have a tremendous amount of interest from people in Hollywood to make a major motion picture about Mass Effect. The most important thing for us is, we don’t just want to see a movie get made. We want to see a great movie get made, if it’s going to get done at all.” That was followed by the news that Legendary Pictures had secured the rights to turn the game into a movie, but that was the last we heard about it…until now.
