Description: Throughout history, tales of chivalry have burnished the legends of brave, handsome knights who rescue fair damsels, slay dragons and conquer evil. But behind many a hero is a good-for-nothing younger brother trying just to stay out of the way of those dragons, evil and trouble in general. Danny McBride and James Franco team up for an epic comedy adventure set in a fantastical world "Your Highness." As two princes on a daring mission to save their land, they must rescue the heir apparent's fiancee before their kingdom is destroyed. Thadeous (McBride) has spent his life watching his perfect older brother Fabious (Franco) embark upon valiant journeys and win the hearts of his people. Tired of being passed over for adventure, adoration and the throne, he's settled for a life of wizard's weed, hard booze and easy maidens. But when Fabious' bride-to-be, Belladonna (Zooey Deschanel), gets kidnapped by the evil wizard Leezar (Justin Theroux), the king gives his deadbeat son an ultimatum: Man up and help rescue her or get cut off. Half-assedly embarking upon his first quest, Thadeous joins Fabious to trek across the perilous outlands and free the princess. Joined by Isabel (Natalie Portman), an elusive warrior with a dangerous agenda of her own, the brothers must vanquish horrific creatures and traitorous knights before they can reach Belladonna. If Thadeous can find his inner hero, he can help his brother prevent the destruction of his land. Stay a slacker, and not only does he die a coward, he gets front row seats to the dawn of an all-new Dark Ages.

Suspiria remake to start shooting in September

Director David Gordon Green’s long-discussed Suspiria remake is still going ahead, and set to commence shooting in September… Director David Gordon Green, well known for his well-acted dramas such as All The Real Girls and Undertow , as well as bawdy comedies such as Pineapple Express , TVs Eastbound And Down and last years distinctly uneven Your Highness, is turning his hand to horror. And its been known for some time that the object of his attention is a remake of Dario Argentos 1977 masterpiece Suspiria , a Technicolor nightmare involving ballet, witches and dark, stormy nights. Green spoke to us enthusiastically about his take on Suspiria last year, saying that I've written it with the sound designer, so we've really written it from a unique perspective. We've come at it not from a traditional narrative way, but from the perspective of sound. It's a fun ex (Read More)

Have Your Say: David Gordon Green taking another stab at Suspiria

Mon Dieu! Déjà Vu. Suspiria redo! It seems that the production outfit behind Hotel Rwanda and I Am Love have given David Gordon Green a fresh cash infusion to continue with the often off-again-on-again remake of Dario Argento's baroque-horror masterwork, Suspiria. Deadline reports that Wild Bunch will be selling territory rights for this remake at Cannes, with shooting scheduled for September 2012 so things are certainly underway.It's unclear whether people were more unhappy with the idea of the remake a few years ago when the Arkansas-born director was as known for his indie-regional classics George Washington and All The Real Girls, or right now, when he is known for goofy stoner-comedies, Your Highness and The Sitter.Looking for a 2014 Suspiria? Suspicious of David Gordon Green?...
