Two Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter Tv Spots

“Star Wars Rebels,” a new animated series set between Episodes III and IV of the live-action “Star Wars” movie saga, will have its debut on Disney Channel in fall 2014 before moving to its regular home on Disney XD.    

Star of War Horse and Thor movies will play opposite Mark Gatiss in Shakespeare tragedy, which he calls 'play for our time'The film star Tom Hiddleston, whose recent hits include War Horse, The Avengers, Midnight in Paris and the two Thor movies, will return to one of the smallest stages in London's West End, the Donmar Warehouse, to play the title role in Shakespeare's blood-soaked tragedy Coriolanus.Hiddleston described it as "a play for our time", adding: "The fate of Coriolanus dramatises the conflict in the heart of every public figure: the war between integrity and popularity; the difference between military action and politics; the debate between public responsibility and private freedom."He will play opposite Mark Gatiss, co-founder of the League of Gentlemen, who will soon return to television screens as Mycroft Holmes in the BBC series Sherlock, making his first professional appearance in a Shakespeare play. The production, opening in December, will also be seen worldwide in January in a live broadcast to cinemas.The Donmar is also reviving Arnold Wesker's Roots, the second in his trilogy of plays set in Britain after the second world war, regarded as a classic of 20th-century theatre since it was staged at the Royal Court in 1959. This time it will star Jessica Raine, best known as Jenny Lee in the BBC hit Call the Midwife, making her first appearance at the Donmar, a theatre she said she came to constantly as a student.The pint-sized theatre, with a giant reputation for making reputations and showcasing established stars, will also have a new play from Nick Payne, both a shrewd social observer and one of the wittiest of the younger playwrights, opening in August. In 2009 he won the George Devine award for his first play, If There Is I Haven't Found It Yet, which the Donmar's artistic director, Josie Rourke, directed during her time at the Bush Theatre. He went on last year to win the Evening Standard best new play award and an Olivier nomination for his play Constellations.The play is particularly personal for Rourke, who called him "one of our greatest young playwrights". Payne found something both irresistibly funny and apposite as an image of life in contemporary Britain when he met her brother, a lawyer specialising in prosecuting small cases of insurance fraud, compensation claims often dubbed "cash for crash". The family calls her brother "the Eliot Ness of Whiplash", she said, after the legendary Chicago law enforcement officer who spent years trying to nail the gangster Al Capone in prohibition-era Chicago. Payne's play will open in August, directed by John Crowley.One of the Donmar's most discussed productions of last year, the all-female Julius Caesar directed by Phyllida Lloyd and starring Frances Barber and Harriet Walter, will be revived at the St Anne's Warehouse space in New York in October. The company will also take the previously announced new play by Matt Charman, The Machine, based on the encounter between the chess master Garry Kasparov and the computer Deep Blue, to the Manchester festival and the cavernous Armoury space in New York.Rourke, who is directing both The Machine and Coriolanus, sees strong links with the state of contemporary Britain in all the plays in the new season. "One of theatre's roles is to be a conversation with the world," she said – but added: "In the end you're really looking for dead good stuff to do."Donmar WarehouseTom HiddlestonTheatreMark GatissWilliam ShakespeareLondonMaev Kennedyguardian.co.uk © 2013 Guardian News and Media Limited or its affiliated companies.

Television… the Final Frontier. These are the voyages of the Starship Enterprise… and that other Enterprise. And Deep Space Nine. And Voyager. Oh, and even that other Enterprise. With Star Trek Into Darkness now in theaters, we've been on a bit of a Starfleet bender of late (read our Ranking the Star Trek Movies story here). And while undertaking the task of picking the greatest Star Trek TV episodes -- out of the 725 or so stories from all the different series -- is something of a fool's errand, we decided to give it a try anyway. It may not be logical, but hey, tell it to the Vulcans! Continue reading…
