After establishing successful careers in front of the camera, many actors get the itch to broaden their ambitions and actually make movies as well as star in them. Sometimes this works out well, but other times not so much. As we ...
Is the ‘Avengers’ sequel out yet? Only overseas but not in this country. We have to wait one more week.
The major selling point of ‘The Salvation’ is the image of Mads Mikkelsen holding a shotgun in the Old West. It’s a pretty damn great starting point, given that there are few tough-as-nails character actors aroun...
