Exclusive 'Battleship': Taylor Kitsch Gets Flirty With Brooklyn Decker
In addition to alien-vs.-soldier action, the film has a softer side, as our exclusive clip shows. By Eric Ditzian, with reporting by Amy Wilkinson Taylor Kitsch in "Battleship" Photo: Universal Pictures "Fire all the weapons!" Liam Neeson yells in the first "Battleship" trailer , a command dutifully followed by a young naval officer in the film but one that failed to trigger the dude-I-gotta-see-this-movie jones of many moviegoers. But we had a feeling a lot of folks were missing the point of both the popcorn flick's whiz-bang alien-vs.-soldier brawling and the sun-dappled human-on-human seduction giving "Battleship" its warm, gooey center. The film is perfectly constructed to fill the "Transformers"-sized hole in the summer movie calendar. Audiences overseas are already responding, shelling out $58 million to check it out since the April 11 foreign release. (Read More)

Alexander Skarsgard to Topline Warner Bros. Thriller HIDDEN

The story concerns a family hiding in a bomb shelter after escaping a mysterious outbreak. Twin brothers Matt and Ross Duffer will make their feature directing debut on the project based on a script they wrote. The Brothers Duffer’s spec script was a hot item late last year, and Warner Bros. was eager to get moving on the film as soon as possible. Not other plot details are known beyond the basic outline, but the premise provides a number of promising scenarios. Though it seems unlikely, I’d love to see a swell creature feature with the infected turning into monstrous beasts (Read More)
