CRACKS

The daughter of Ridley Scott will have her own movie in the making soon.

INVICTUS

Been a frontrunner for this season's Oscar, the hype for this movie is still not loud yet. But to ensure things getting loud, here is a piece from its trailer. This comes just days after the revealed movie poster.



Warner Bros has released the first trailer for Clint Eastwood’s new film Invictus, which tells the “inspiring true story of how Nelson Mandela joined forces with the captain of South Africa’s rugby team, Francois Pienaar, to help unite their country.” Matt Damon plays Pienaar, and Morgan Freeman plays Mandela.
