Gridiron Gang

Director: Phil Joanou

Stars: The Rock, Xzibit (Full Cast)

Studio: Columbia Pictures

 

The Plot: A counselor (The Rock) at Camp Kilpatrick, a juvenile detention center in LA, launches a football program to help rehabilitate a group of young inmates. After weeks of rigorous training, the Kilpatrick Mustangs look to compete against area high schools, where coaches and players alike are wary of mixing it up with criminals.

 

THE BUZZ: Can you smell what the Rock's been cooking lately? After stinkers like Doom and Be Cool, a feel-good football drama based on an inspiring true story might be the one-time NFL contender's recipe for success. And from the look of the trailer, it seems as though the former wrestler will have plenty of monologues to help him make the transition to drama. Adapted from a 1993 documentary of the same name, Gridiron could put the action hero back in the game and offer docu filmmaker Phil Joanou a chance to break out of his embarrassing film funk, too. Though formulaic to a fault, we'll admit we get choked up watching the clip.

Hostel: Part II

 

It was announced a few weeks back that Lauren German, Heather Matarazzo and Bijou Phillips would join Jay Hernandez in Lionsgate's hotly anticipated sequel to Hostel, which is now titled Hostel: Part II. Today a whole bunch of final casting news was revealed and can be found inside. This time, the story follows three women who, while studying abroad for the summer, learn the grim truth behind the Slovakian hostel and its international counterparts. German would play a wealthy girl trying to figure out her next step in life, Phillips would be her best friend and Matarazzo will be a tag-along.

 

Set to roll within the next week or so back in the Czech Republic (where the original lensed), the follow-up focuses this time on a trio of female travelers who run afoul of the underground torture network. Said girls will be played by TEXAS CHAINSAW remake hitchhiker Lauren German, Bijou (VENOM) Phillips and Heather (SCREAM 3) Matarazzo, with Jay Hernandez returning as Paxton (who may or may not make it to the end of his second adventure). Also in the HOSTEL: PART II cast are Finnish model-turned-actress Vera Jordanova, THE PRODUCERS’ Roger Bart and Richard (STARSHIP TROOPERS 2) Burgi; Eli Roth writes and directs.
