Tammy Teaser Trailer for Melissa McCarthy
The first teaser trailer for Bridesmaids star Melissa McCarthy’s new comedy has been released online. McCarthy plays the titular character in Tammy co written by McCarthy and her husband, Ben Falcone, who also directs. It boasts a supporting cast including Dan Aykroyd and Kathy Bates.
The film finds McCarthy playing an ordinary woman who’s life quickly spirals out of control when she gets fired and discovers her husband is having an affair on the same day. Prompting an ill-advised road trip with her foul mouthed grandmother, played by Susan Sarandon.
If the teaser is anything to go by, it looks like McCarthy is back to her bumbling best after the disappointing Identity Thief. We’ll have to wait till July 4th to find out though.

Stephen King IT remake Still In Works
Plans for an updated version of Stephen King’s classic novel IT have resurfaced with Jayne Eyre director, Cary Fukunaga reportedly directing. In a recent interview, producer Dan Lin has announced that
“Cary Fukunaga is writing and directing Stephen King’s It for me, and I’m really excited for that. So I’m hoping that’ll be his next movie after the indie he’s shooting in Africa. I love what he did with True Detective. I think it’s a great sample for Stephen King’s It. So I’m really excited about that”
IT is the story of a group of children who, after defeating the titular monster join together again 25 years later to destroy it for good. Although it has never had a Hollywood adaptation, Tim Curry famously played the spine tingling clown in a two part Television Film in 1990.
Reports suggest that Fukunaga will begin work on the film after he finishes his Beasts Of No Nation with Idris Elba with high hopes that it could begin production this year.

Monuments Men Join Elgin Marbles Debate
George Clooney, Matt Damon and Bill Murray spoke about the controversial debate over whether the British Government should return cultural landmark the Elgin Marbles to their ancestral home in Greece, during a London press conference to promote their new historical drama The Monuments Men.
The film deals with the adventures of a group of unlikely soldiers, trying to save mankind’s greatest artistic achievements from the destruction of war and Nazi theft during the closing stages of World War II. Asked to give their opinion on the sensitive issue of the fate of the infamous Elgin Marbles director George Clooney reiterated recent comments that he believed they should ultimately be returned to their homeland.
Bill Murray echoed that sentiment and called for the UK to be a leader by example in returning stolen art and cultural relics. The Ghostbusters funnyman also suggested that perhaps a compromise could be reached to return the Marbles to Greece but have them periodically loaned back to the UK for exhibition purposes.
