Tron Legacy Panel at San Diego Comic Con

tini — Sat, 19 Jun 2010 04:11:08 +0000

Walt Disney Pictures is pleased to present a very special, insider look at its upcoming Tron Legacy at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con International Convention. At 11:15 a.m. on Thursday, July 22, 2010, the panel presentation will be held in Hall H of the San Diego Convention Center. On the dais will be filmmakers and talent from the film, including director Joseph Kosinski, producer Sean Bailey and cast members Jeff Bridges, Garrett Hedlund, Olivia Wilde, Michael Sheen and Bruce Boxleitner. The panel discussion, to be moderated by Patton Oswalt, is set to include exclusive glimpses of the film, as well as a Q & A involving all panel participants, along with special surprise guests.

It was at the 2008 Convention that the vision of a 21st century Tron was born. When VFX test footage was shown to a packed hall of incredibly surprised convention attendees, it was met with such an overwhelmingly positive response-becoming the “it” moment of the Convention-that the studio gave the film an enthusiastic green light. In 2009 Tron Legacy returned to Comic-Con with an expanded presence and this year, the filmmakers and cast are back with never before seen visuals and “scoop” for the Convention fans who have been such an instrumental part of the story of Tron Legacy.

Director Joseph Kosinski comments: “When we made the teaser, we envisioned it as a sneak peak at the potential of this project. We set out to stay true to the characters, the vehicles, and the world established in the first film-then show its evolution. When it took off with the fans, we knew we were in the right place. Because they’ve been key to getting this story told, we’re back to keep them involved, and excited to finally present actual footage from the film to the audience that made it all possible.”

To add to the excitement of this extraordinary event, Disney will showcase an interactive Tron booth on the convention floor (located on aisle #3712), giving fans a first look at the all new Tron Legacy inspired merchandise launching this fall. Capturing the action, light, and cool aesthetic style of the film, the display will include toys, electronics, collectibles, apparel, accessories, publishing and the Tron: Evolution video game from Disney Interactive Studios. Comic-Con exclusive products will also be on sale. Disney will also reveal exciting new mobile content at the event.

tini — Fri, 05 Feb 2010 07:52:44 +0000

Hello Team,

Our Laura & Elle went for a trip down to Nashville on Tuesday for the climactic scene and you wouldn’t believe what happened until you see these pictures below.
These pictures are courtesy from Laura & Elle, and please do note take or repost these pictures without permission from them.

These pictures were taken in Nashville where Garrett is currently filming “Love Don’t Let Me Down”. It co-stars Gwyneth Paltrow, Tim McGraw, and Leighton Meester. From IMDB: “Love Don’t Let Me Down” is a drama centered on a rising country-music songwriter (Hedlund) who sparks with a fallen star (Paltrow). Together, they mount his ascent and her comeback, which leads to romantic complications involving her husband/manager (McGraw) and a beauty queen-turned-singer (Meester).

Pictured with Garrett are the guys who make up his character Beau’s band. From L to R: Josh Graham – Lead Guitar, Chris Scrugg – Steel Guitar, Garrett – Lead Singer, Skylar Wilson – Drums, and Cory Younts – Acoustic guitar.

I must say, this has been the best and great start to the year! Lucky gals And i am very jealous, i think we all wish to have been there!!!!

Extras Needed For McGraw, Paltrow Movie

tini — Fri, 22 Jan 2010 02:21:28 +0000

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Extras are needed for the Tim McGraw and Gwyneth Paltrow film “Love Don’t Let Me Down” shooting in Nashville. Paltrow plays a struggling country singer managed by McGraw.

A climactic concert scene is being shot Feb. 2 at Municipal Auditorium, located at 417 Fourth Ave. N. Extras must be at least 18. A free shuttle will take extras from Lot R at LP Field to Municipal Auditorium, where doors open at 4 p.m. Extras should be able to stay until 11 p.m.

Producers want 2,000 to 2,500 extras, who will be admitted on a first-come, first-served basis.

McGraw is unlikely to sing, but he’ll greet the crowd, and The Lost Trailers will play at 4:30 p.m. Leighton Meester and Garrett Hedlund will perform to pre-recorded tracks.

Our dreams have come true!! LOL. I wonder what Garrett’s singing voice sounds like!! Who cares if it’s pre-corded

Are there any Garrett fans in Nashville??? Are you going to this?? How did your casting call go??

Love Don’t Let Me Down – Filming

tini — Sun, 17 Jan 2010 12:12:03 +0000

Filming for “Love Don’t Let Me Down” has begun in Nashville, with blogs spotting stars of LDLMD.

The feature film Love Don’t Let Me Down, directed by Shana Feste, has been in preproduction for weeks and recently held its kickoff party at Bound’ry in Midtown to celebrate the beginning of principal photography as well as the arrival of several main cast members. No word on whether Gwyneth Paltrow, Leighton Meester, or Tim McGraw were in attendance, but Garrett Hedlund was spotted. Not familiar with this hottie? Well, remember the Mormon hunk of hotness from Georgia Rule–essentially the only element that made that flick watchable ? (I assure you it wasn’t Ms. Lohan). This kid is gonna be huge. He’s already been cast as the lead in the upcoming Tron Legacy, the sequal to the sci-fi Tron (1982). And he’s got a fansite called “The G Spot.” We kid you not. Just keep your hands to yourself, ladies.

LOL thanks for the mention!!

Also;

gwyneth paltrow, garrett hedlund (you might remember him from georgia rule. or you might not.) and whole cast of friends and characters were spotted having dinner and drinks at patterson house in nashville, tn, on tuesday evening, january 12.

“there were maybe twenty of them, and she was the only really recognizable one, but we could tell the whole group must have been a fame crew even before we saw her, because they were all wearing fedoras or crazy hair. they looked like, you know, somebodies.”

paltrow looked relaxed in a loose ponytail and denim jacket. they enjoyed a meal at a big table in the back, and afterwards mingled in group, laughing a lot.

“they’re very easygoing, and very friendly. they come here a lot, and a lot of bands, because of the low-key atmosphere, and because there is a list to get in. they know they won’t be bothered.” said a source who works there.

paltrow and two other friends left around 11 pm; the rest of the crew rolled out around 11:30.

The Top Ten Actors to Watch in 2010

tini — Sat, 12 Dec 2009 03:32:59 +0000

Screencave has a list for The Top Ten Actors to Watch in 2010 and Garrett made 6th. Thanks Krystal for the article.

6. Garrett Hedlund
Garrett Hedlund has managed to snag supporting roles in some well known films such as Troy, Four Brothers, and Friday Night Lights, but next year he’ll be starring side by side with franchise legend, Jeff Bridges in Tron Legacy. The film will debut in December 2010 with the same weekend slot as this year’s Avatar, which could be a blessing or a curse depending on how you look at it. Can Hedlund take over the Tron franchise and spawn a new generation of sequels? Only time will tell.

Comic Con Panel Report for Tron:Legacy

tini — Fri, 24 Jul 2009 06:40:33 +0000

So we have an official movie name and an official name for Garrett’s character.

Sam, not Sean.

We also know it’s not a re-make but it’s a sequel. And we finally get to hear from the cast.

Comic Con 2009 has been a blessing for our unanswered questions. Now here’s a report from the Tron: Legacy panel.

“One of the most anticipated films of 2011 is “Tron Legacy,” the sequel to the 1982 sci-fi movie “Tron.” Disney didn’t disappoint fans during their 3-D panel at San Diego Comic-Con on Thursday.

Filmmakers and members of the cast, including Jeff Bridges reprising his role as Kevin Flynn, introduced footage revealing that the story revolves around Kevin’s son Sam.

‘I go on search for my father and find myself in this crazy world,” said actor Garrett Hedlund, who plays Sam Flynn.’”

Tron 2 is so last year’s SDCC. It’s now Tron: Legacy. Adjust accordingly.

Since last year’s geek gathering, fans were teased by the return of Tron, the 1982 film that put Jeff Bridges into a live-action, CG hybrid that developed quite the cult following.

A sequel is ready to give the fans what they want, and Disney’s Hall H panel provided a sampling of Tron 2′s Light Cycle goodness. TRON producers Sean Bailey and Steve Lisberger greeted an enthusiastic crowd with concept art, kicking off with a first-look (in 3-D) at the new title treatment.

Olivia Wilde (who plays a loyal friend of Kevin Flynn), Garrett Hedlund and the Dude, Jeff Bridges were on hand for some Q & A. No trailer, no final footage persay, as it was announced that they had just finished shooting last week. But we did see a rough assembly cut of a key scene in the film: Spoilers from our next trip to the ENCOM mainframe begin here.

Hedlund as Flynn’s son pulls up to his father’s condemned arcade, and the scene milks some genuine — and surprising — tension using, wait for it, a Journey song.

Flynn’s son enters an arcade full of old arcade games sporting dust covers. He moves further into the room, as Journey’s “Separate Ways” blares from a still-functioning jukebox. (You were expecting Guitar Hero?).

The son explores further, past arcade games draped in plastic, to a game in the back that is still on, a game under a neon sign that reads TRON. We glimpse the young Flynn playing the original TRON arcade we pumped quarters into growing up. Flynn’s son tries to drop a quarter into the slot and the game refuses it, spitting out his quarter to the floor.

Journey is still blaring from the jukebox, and the tension is really pounding. Flynn’s son picks up his quarter and sees that the game conceals a secret passage behind the wall. He pushes aside the game, opens the passage, and enters — the song continues as the game closes in over the passage, locking Flynn inside before cutting to titles.

The panel also showed the teaser trailer from last year’s SDCC, but now in 3-effin’-D. The trailer features a new Light Cycle chased by an old one of sorts, its rider sporting black and yellow grid attire as the yellow rider’s light wake destroys our new rider’s bike. The rider is knocked into the air and lands on the ground, stalked by the yellow rider on foot — as an older Flynn (Bridges) watches from a cliff-face lair. “You’ve won, alright?!” begs the new rider, as the Yellow Rider readies a disc.

“It’s just a game,” the new rider insists — inches from death. The yellow rider’s face shield then flickers to life, revealing a digital visage of a young Flynn — before he answers, “Not anymore” — and brings the disc down for a killing stroke as we cut to black.

Rounding out the panel was a sneak peek at the new world of Legacy via concept art, which blends the worlds of Blade Runner and A.I. with that of the original Tron.

Expect scenes off the grid to play a significant role in the new movie, as the panel revealed a new look for Tron City, one surrounded by very black, very rocky terrain a la the wasteland outside Zion in the Matrix movies.

Disc Wars were up next, and they get a huge evolution. We saw a rendering of a new arena for the games, which feature 16 combatants on various platforms that recombine as the matches widdle down to 2 players. The goal now for players is two-fold — strike down your opponent with the disc or score a knock out into de-res for the win.

Footage shot of an athlete engaging in awesome, beyond wire-fu Disc War moves concluded the behind-the-scenes showcase. The coolest thing about this part, aside from the guy spinning 360 in mid-air, was that he did it without the aid of wires. Without the aid of CG or a springboard. This athlete is a human Neo, apparently, which he reminded us by finishing a spin move and tossing the disc in John Woo slow motion.

TRON: Legacy was arguably the best presentation from the Disney panel, right after Johnny Depp’s surprise appearance. No one knew quite what to expect, but everyone wants this movie ASAP. We all left with mouths wide in awe at a sequel that promises to make its mark in the competitive 3-D landscape.

Thorns From A Rose 2009

tini — Thu, 08 Jan 2009 07:33:01 +0000

This is not confirmed!

Garrett is attached to a new movie Thorns from a Rose which is in production, that was filmed by independant filmmakers for Film and Television based in Phoenix Arizona. (Feature Films, Short Films, Documentary Films & Television)

Synopsis:
A poorly treated and improperly diagnosed mental patient seeks revenge upon his doctor and former fellow patients who abused him.

Movie Teaser under the cut, Garrett is not in the teaser.

Thanks so much to Billy25 from MH.COM Forum!

Garrett is attached to a new movie, that is/was filmed in Arizona, i think it might be a small production because news articles are hard to find online.

Synopsis:
A poorly treated and improperly diagnosed mental patient seeks revenge upon his doctor and former fellow patients who abused him.

Movie Teaser

When a group of young adults convene to celebrate their doctor’s retirement and a fellow friend’s documentary on Juvenile mental health care, they have no idea that their past would return to haunt them. Robert Rose, son of a prominent African American family (mother the town Judge and his father a Doctor who lost his license) who was put in the juvenile research facility as a teen with other troubled teens diagnosed with conditions like OCD, ADHD, teen depression, etc. and other Social disorders under two Doctors (Dr. Dixon and Dr. Johnson) care who have two different types of treatment for the teens. The teens and the program are doing well except for Robert Rose who has lost favor with Dr. Dixon and the troubled teens. On the last night of the program the teens make one last prank on Robert Rose who in turn kills one of the kids and in turn the teens kill Robert Rose. The teens and Dr. Dixon cover it up as an accident and agree they never bring it up ever again and move on with their lives.

After 10 years of success the teens do not know is that Robert Rose is still alive and graduated the Juvenile Program in to the Mental facility under Dr. Dixon’s care and supervision. In the week of Dr. Dixon’s retirement Robert Rose is to be transferred into a Government program and escapes, fully determined to seek his version of justice upon Dr. Dixon and his family, who kept him from his family and improperly diagnosed him. Rose finds out that the same teens who left him for dead are all celebrating Dr. Dixon’s success as well as their own. With aid from his family the journey of Robert Rose leaves behind a path of blood and bodies and his determination to seek full retribution on his former “fellow” inmates, now convening to herald their Doctor’s accomplishment. Robert Rose and his family seek vengeance in their small Arizona town, bringing a new meaning to the term serial killer. The only being who can save the town is the local Sheriff who too has his demons with the death of his wife from cancer and the accidental death of his son under the care of Dr. Dixon 10 years ago is determined to bring justice but to find out that the same person he is after is the one who killed his son.

Garrett will be playing a 27 year old Car Dealership Owner named Erik Ship.

Erik Ship:
A foster kid as a child was adopted by the Ship family. Was entered into Dr. Dixon’s care at the age of 15 Erik was ADD, ADHD, and like to cut himself. Was Dr. Nixon’s other challenge other than Robert. Erik liked to pick on the other teens and was best friends with Jacky Ryan. On the night Jacky was killed by Robert, Erik actually saved the day by taking Robert out. Obtained his family’s Car Dealership once he turned 2, not having a need for oney Erik turned his cutting addiction to a gambling addiction and has run up a few lines of debt with some unsavory debt collectors (Similar to Hectic, i see). Erik being Erik does not phase him and stays cocky and arrogant. Erik’s favourite line is, “I have more money than an ATM machine”.

tini — Wed, 07 Jan 2009 06:27:01 +0000

Forces collide in Book III of the phenomenally successful Inheritance Cycle. Eragon represents the greatest hope for a better Alagaesia. Can this once simple farm boy rise to become a leader who can unite the rebel forces and defeat the King? Following the colossal battle against the Empire’s warriors on the Burning Plains, Eragon and his dragon, Saphira, have narrowly escaped with their lives. Still there is more at hand for the Rider and his dragon, as Eragon finds himself bound by a tangle of promises he may not be able to keep, including Eragon’s oath to his cousin Roran to help rescue Roran’s beloved, Katrina, from King Galbatorix’s clutches.But Eragon owes his loyalty to others, too. The Varden are in desperate need of his talents and strength, as are the elves and dwarves. When unrest claims the rebels and danger strikes from every corner, Eragon must make choices – choices that take him across the Empire and beyond, choices that may lead to unimagined sacrifice. Conflict, action, adventure and one devastating death await readers as Eragon battles on behalf of the Varden while Galbatorix ruthlessly attempts to crush and twist him to his own purposes.

Rich with a thoughtful examination of Eragon’s maturing psyche, “Brisinger” explores how Eragon must come to terms with his role as a leader and the moral obligations that weigh heavily upon his young shoulders as a Dragon Rider.

“I would have to go with a carrot.”

tini — Sat, 19 Jan 2008 03:02:04 +0000

Article/Interview by Withersin Magazine.

We decided on two quick questions for Mr. Hedlund before he needed to be rushed off. I asked him also to give me three words to describe his role in the movie, he paused for a good length of time, then finally started with “Non-sympathetic, no wait, that is already two words”. I told him we could say it is only one since it is a compound word, then he paused for a bit again…….. “Big”……..”Pissed-Off”… “Leader”; he looked relieved to be done until I asked my final question,
“What is your favorite vegetable?”,

“Vegetable?”, he asked, looking confused. “Yes, vegetable”, I replied again. Another pause…… “I would have to go with a carrot.” he finally said. We then concluded the interview, thanked him for his time and got on our way.
Vegetables obviously have nothing to do with acting or his role in the movie, but I thought it made a unique personal question and why not, he probably won’t forget that he was asked it and hopefully that it was asked by Withersin Magazine.
It was an amazing opportunity to be invited to this preview and we would like to thank Fox Atomic and Danni Pearlberg for the opportunity; also a big thanks to Mr. Wan and Mr. Hedlund for attending the event and answering our questions.

New interview of Garrett!

tini — Tue, 31 Jul 2007 18:02:17 +0000

An interview of Garrett has been posted in About.com. It took place before the DS talent signing last saturday.

It´s a really REALLY interesting and fun interview, click Read More to know more about it.

Posted by Brosa.

From the interview:

“Garrett Hedlund joked that because he looks so different in the action thriller Death Sentence, none of the press gathered in San Diego to discuss the movie even recognized him when he joined them for breakfast. “Nobody’s giving me any love. They’re all running up to James [Wan],” said Hedlund, laughing.” … Awww!

Other interesting facts:

*Garrett first considered not to do the role of Billy Darly, because Billy is supposed to be a much older man. Later on, he realized he really wanted the role.

*The reporter asked: “And you’re the guy who could get put away?” GH:
“It’s actually my little brother. But then what happens from there then affects my character and ignites my character, his motivations throughout this whole story.” —Could it be that Billy doesn´t die?

*GH says there is a very poetic scene between him and Kevin Bacon at the end of the movie

*GH got his gun permit when he was 11 y/o!!

*He worked out on his first weeks in South Carolina , but then decided not to do it anymore. He really enjoyed S.C. hospitality!

*GH mentions he really can´t say more about his new movie….:eeh:

COMIC CON

tini — Sun, 29 Jul 2007 06:08:29 +0000

At the Breakfast in Honor of Death Sentence
Hedlund plays the evil gang leader, and said most of his “gang” were middle-aged stuntmen — in order to be the alpha dog, he’d occasionally throw a glass at the bar when he wasn’t supposed to, and made them think he was a li’l crazy. Studied lions to get the “king of the jungle” feel, character has Aborigine tattoos (inspired by Aussie James Wan).

He’s not bothered by obsessed or crazy fans identifying with extreme characters like this — says “It’ll only give me more people who got my back in a sticky situation!”

Death Sentence Movie Update: Interview to James Wan

tini — Sat, 16 Jun 2007 17:44:43 +0000

WorstPreviews.com has posted a small interview of movie director James Wan about his upcoming project “Death Sentence”, starring our beloved Garrett Hedlund and Kevin Bacon.

On the movie: “One of the things I really have always wanted to do was make a scary action film.” said Wan. “A really intense and scary action film because I feel like action films today are so heightened. They’re all CGI, people driving cars into helicopters Since I can’t compete with films like that, I wanted to take a much more realistic approach to it.”

Intense and scary action film? Whoa, prepare yourselves for this one guys!
