    In theaters on April 10 is ‘Hamlet’, a fresh update of William Shakespeare’s famous tragedy, which features Riz Ahmed (‘Sound of Metal’), who plays a version of the troubled Dane, here the heir to an elite South Asian empire in modern-day London.

    Initial Thoughts

    If you’re going to tackle a Shakespeare play on film –– particularly the complex web of family tragedy that is ‘Hamlet’ — be prepared for challenges. But with this present-day version, director Aneil Karia and writer Michael Lesslie bring a fierce energy to their effort.

    Script and Direction

    Shakespeare is not easy to adapt, and Lesslie here sticks to the traditional language for the most part (while still needing to cut plenty to avoid an overlong running time). But the changes and substitutions (London for Denmark and the use of Indian culture) truly work well.

    Karia, meanwhile brings real panache and style, making the world feel relevant and also, in places, timely.

    Cast and Performances

    It’s really Ahmed’s show, and he chews on one of the trickiest parts in drama. Sequences such as the “To be or not to be” soliloquy give him something to truly work with.

    Which isn’t to dismiss an impressive supporting cast, especially Art Malik as scheming uncle Claudius and Morfydd Clark, who brings humanity to the relatively smaller role of Ophelia.

    Final Thoughts

    Even if you’ve dismissed Shakespeare as impenetrable, the new ‘Hamlet’ shows what can happen in sure hands, the emotion on full display. Purists may balk at the changes, but this is a worthwhile adaptation.

    ‘Hamlet’ receives 75 out of 100.

  • ‘Hamlet’ Exclusive Interview: Riz Ahmed

    Moviefone: To begin with, can you talk about the challenges of playing the iconic role of Hamlet, and is it a role that you’ve always wanted to play?

    Riz Ahmed: I’ve wanted to play this since I was 17 and I was in English class feeling like this is some stuffy, boring museum artifact, and that Shakespeare is not for me. I had an amazing English teacher who put it in front of me and made me realize, “Wow, this is pretty close to how I’m feeling.” The central feeling, I would say for Hamlet is, “Is the world going crazy or have I lost my mind?” I think that’s how we’re all feeling. That’s how I was feeling then, and it’s how I’m feeling now, and dare I say, it’s how most of the world feels now. So, I wanted to play it because it was very relatable. I think that’s the challenge and the gift of taking on something like ‘Hamlet’, a role like this, is it’s been done so many times. I think the challenge is, what is specific and personal about your interpretation? That’s also a gift. It’s been done so many times, there’s no illusion that someone’s going to perform a definitive Hamlet. You’re liberated in a way to just do something as uniquely specific and personal to you and your experience as possible. So, it’s a strange combination of feeling like, “We’re going to step into these big old shoes that don’t belong to us.” While at the same time going, “Well, actually we get to run around in these shoes however we want.”

    MF: Shakespeare’s work is universal and can be adapted to any time-period or culture. What is it about his work that you think has made it stand the test of time?

    RA: I think it’s a couple of things. Firstly, a lot of the stories are drawn from myths that are not British, that are ancient. The first words you hear in our Hamlet are words from the Bhagavad Gita, which is the foundational Hindu myth. That’s because that story is very similar to the story of ‘Hamlet’. It predates ‘Hamlet’ by thousands of years. This idea of choosing family loyalty or doing the right thing, that’s a timeless theme. So, I think that’s one reason why it can cross barriers of culture. It belongs to myth that belongs to all of us. The second reason is because it’s like music. The logical understanding of every word was not something that even audiences were doing in Shakespeare’s time when it comes to these plays. Shakespeare made up like 4,000 new words. They didn’t understand half of what he was saying, but it’s music. It’s rhythm, its flow, its percussion, its energy, and it’s intention. If you hear it like music, it moves you like music and music crosses all boundaries.

    MF: Finally, I’ve never seen the ‘To be or not to be” speech depicted the way you did it, with the character in a car speeding towards oncoming traffic. Can you talk about shooting that scene and how that added urgency to the speech?

    RA: Absolutely. Our interpretation of “To be or not to be” is that it’s not about, “Should I kill myself or not?” Which is how it’s usually performed, right? It’s a much more urgent, confronting question. The question is, “Should we fight back against injustice, even if it means we might die?” That’s a contemporary, radical question. Then if you look at the language itself rather than looking at the traditional way it’s performed, that’s what it’s saying. So, we had to stage it in a way and have that confrontation and that urgency. If the speech is a game of chicken, we’re going to stage it like a game of chicken. So, he is literally doing that. He’s driving down a freeway, heading towards a lorry a hundred miles an hour, asking himself, does he have the guts to take on something bigger than himself? So, we staged it that way in a way. We’re just trying to honor the DNA of this speech rather than honoring the traditional way it’s done. We really tried to make something that’s for people who feel like Shakespeare isn’t normally for them and hopefully it gives them a visceral experience.

  • ‘Love Hurts’ Interview: Ke Huy Quan and Ariana DeBose

    Opening in theaters on February 7th is the new romantic action comedy ‘Love Hurts’, which was directed by stunt coordinator Jonathan Eusebio (‘Deadpool 2’) and stars Oscar winners Ke Huy Quan (‘Everything Everywhere All at Once’) and Ariana DeBose (‘West Side Story’).

    Moviefone recently had the pleasure of sitting down in-person with Academy Award winners Ke Huy Quan and Ariana DeBose to talk about their work on ‘Love Hurts’, their first reactions to the screenplay and their characters, working together, the action sequences, collaborating with director Jonathan Eusebio, and if the movie is a love story or a revenge film.

    You can read the full interviews below or click on the video player above to watch our interviews with Quan, DeBose, and director Jonathan Eusebio.

    Moviefone: To begin with, Ke, what was your first reaction to the screenplay, and did you recognize right away that this would be a perfect role for you to play?

    Ke Huy Quan: No. When I read the script, I liked the script, but I just couldn’t see myself as Marvin Gable. I think it’s because over the years I was never offered the leading role. I’m so accustomed to forgetting about getting the job and auditioning for minor characters. I think because it’s been like that for so long, in some ways I’ve been conditioned to think that I’m not deserving to be number one on the card. So, when I read this, I couldn’t connect to it. I couldn’t see myself as Marvin Gable, and the producers, 87 North, they were very persistent, and I was so confused, and I reached out to my favorite filmmaker, (Steven) Spielberg, and he was so gracious with his time. I told him about the story, I told him that they offered me the lead, and this is a Universal Studios picture. I said, “What do you think? Should I do this?” Very quickly he said, “Ke, this is incredible. You should do this.” Suddenly, I’m like, “Oh wow, he thinks I’m perfect for this.” Then I went in and met with our creative team, and through that conversation I realized that one, they were trying to create a different kind of action hero, because I’m so accustomed to seeing movies with (Arnold) Schwarzenegger and (Sylvester) Stallone and Jason Statham. They don’t look like me, but they were trying to change the status quo with a new kind of action hero that looks like me, that doesn’t look lethal at all until you mess with him, and then you really find out how badass he is. Immediately I was just fascinated, and I began to change my own internal narrative. Now I’m beginning to say, “Oh, I can be the action hero. I can be the number one,” and that is what’s so thrilling about this entire process, this entire production. That’s incredible.

    MF: Ariana, what was your first reaction to the screenplay and what excited you about playing this character?

    Ariana DeBose: Oh, I thought it was a very ambitious little piece. It’s doing many things. There’s a romantic heart to it. It is a full-fledged action flick, but there’re brotherly love. It’s sewing this very fine seam together. It was doing a lot. Then at the heart of it, the backbone of the film was this woman, Rose, who without her you don’t have central conflict in a way. It felt like she was unapologetically just flipping the table and then asking questions later. It’s like she planned up until a certain point and then she’s like, “Whoa, let’s see what happens.” I loved that because I think there comes a point in everyone’s life where they must do that. It’s like a radical acceptance of the unknown and then fly by instinct and see where things fall. I really loved that about her.

    MF: Ariana, do you think the movie is a love story or a revenge film, or both?

    AD: Both, really. I think there are characters who start out with what they would call a revenge plan and it turns into something else. There’s always something underneath revenge. It’s never one color. It makes it fun as an actor. I look at it as painting. I talk about dance in color too, but acting is also about color. I’m never drawn to a character that is just one color. I don’t really know what to do with that because as people, we have so many multitudes within us. So, for me, those are the characters that I feel very strongly drawn to.

    MF: Ariana, director Jonathan Eusebio has a background in fight coordinating, what was it like working with him on the action sequences?

    AD: Oh, it was so, so fun. Again, the impetus of all of this was just fun. I remember sitting down with JoJo when we met about the film and he was like, “Are you open to it?” I was like, “I want to do everything that I can myself.” I had a great stunt double, Aisha (Hussain), who was there if something went wrong or if there was something that perhaps I wasn’t equipped to do. I’m very quick to be like, “Nope, that’s not in my wheelhouse. Safety first.” But they’re pretty much most of the things you see in the film, I was able to do myself. In fact, I learned how to drive a Trans-Am. I drove a stick. I learned how to do it in an hour. I’m very proud of that because driving a stick is hard. Yes, I’m a millennial, don’t judge me, but it’s hard. But the fight sequences were an extension of dance for me. I took to this work, this genre in a way that I don’t know that I have had before in some other types of genre films that I’ve explored. So, this one was fun. It was great. We couldn’t do any of it without our incredible stunt team. Every single member. It was just like a big family.

    MF: Ariana, you presented Ke Huy Quan with his Oscar when he won Best Supporting Actor for ‘Everything Everywhere All at Once’. What was it like to finally work with him on this movie?

    AD: Oh, I can tell you, it’s so nice to watch someone through an award season, have a moment like that and then be on set and feel affirmed in all the things that you thought. He’s everything that you think he is. I think we both grew so much on this film. We both got to express different parts of our talent that I don’t know that audiences had been able to see thus far. We worked from a space of real mutual admiration and partnership. I think that’s why we have the film we have regarding the two characters and their connection. But we had a really good time. It was nothing but fun. It’s a feat to get any movie made. It could be hard, but it’s such a rewarding thing when you get to do it with someone you really enjoy and admire.

    MF: Finally, Ke, what was it like for you to have an opportunity to work with Ariana on this movie after she presented you with your Academy Award?

    KHQ: Come on. When she opened the envelope and announced my name with so much emotion, I was so touched, and I loved her. Since then, when I see her, I always go up and give her a big hug and I say, “Oh, come on, let’s do a movie together.” So, when this came and her name was mentioned for Rose, I immediately said, “Yes, yes, it’s got to be her. Please reach out and give her anything she wants so she says yes.” Of course, we had an incredible time, and I could not have asked for a better partner. Now I see this movie, and I’m so proud of what we have made.

  • All the Oscar Winners in the MCU

    All the Oscar Winners in the MCU

    Marvel

    The MCU cast can’t be beat… including at awards shows. We’re so invested in these characters, it’s sometimes easy to forget a number of them won Oscars for other roles.

    Here are all the Oscar winners, in order of their appearance in the franchise, beginning with “Iron Man” in 2008.

    1. Jeff Bridges, Obadiah Stane

    n Marvel

    Sure, he’s best known as The Dude in “The Big Lebowski,” but he also made a damn good villain in “Iron Man” as Obadiah Stane, Tony Stark’s supposed mentor who was really trying to kill him. After several nominations, Bridges won Best Actor for 2009’s “Crazy Heart.”

    2. Gwyneth Paltrow, Pepper Potts

    Marvel

    As Pepper Potts, Paltrow went from irreplaceable right-hand woman to a fierce fighter in her own right. And if she hadn’t saved Tony’s first arc reactor (against his wishes), there would have been exactly one Iron Man movie. And the universe would pretty much be dust. Paltrow won Best Actress for 1998’s “Shakespeare in Love.”

    3. Sam Rockwell, Justin Hammer

    Marvel

    Before he nabbed an Oscar for “Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri,” Rockwell was a defense contractor intent on taking down business rival Tony Stark in “Iron Man 2.” He unwisely partnered with Ivan Vanko (Mickey Rourke), who had an even bigger grudge against Tony. We prefer his dancing villain in “Charlie’s Angels,” tbh.

    4. Anthony Hopkins, Odin

    Marvel

    The “Silence of the Lambs” Oscar winner lent his gravitas to the All-Father, who casts out unworthy Thor (Chris Hemsworth) to Earth.

    5. Natalie Portman, Jane Foster

    Marvel

    Astrophysicist Jane Foster never expected her years of study to lead her to an incredibly handsome demigod, but there you go. Hurrah for science. She bowed out of the franchise after “Thor: The Dark World,” but appears briefly in “Avengers: Endgame.” Portman won Best Actress for “Black Swan.”

    6. Tommy Lee Jones, Col. Chester Phillips

    Marvel

    In “Captain America: The First Avenger,” Jones plays the superlatively grumpy Colonel who at first doesn’t see the potential in scrawny Steve Rogers. Favorite scene: He interrogates Dr. Zola while asking if arsenic gives him a “rumbly tummy.” Jones won a Best Supporting Actor Oscar for his similarly gruff U.S. Marshal in “The Fugitive.”

    7. Ben Kingsley, The Mandarin/Trevor Slattery

    Marvel

    Sir Ben Kingsley, who won a Best Actor Academy Award for “Gandhi,” makes a fearsome opponent as The Mandarin in “Iron Man 3.” But there’s a twist! He’s really a washed-up actor hired to play the part. Kingsley plays both characters to perfection.

    8. Benicio del Toro, The Collector

    Marvel

    The Collector first pops up in an end-credits scene of “Thor: The Dark World.” Turns out, he has one of the Infinity Stones, which everyone in the galaxy wants. “Infinity War” would have been quite different if he’d been the one to collect them all. Del Toro won Best Supporting Actor for his role as an undercover cop in “Traffic” (2000).

    9. Robert Redford, Alexander Pierce

    Marvel

    Since “Captain America: The Winter Soldier” was inspired by such ’70s conspiracy films as “Three Days of the Condor,” it was a real coup to score “Condor” star Robert Redford as SHIELD’s Secretary of Defense. Redford (who says he’s retired now) never won an acting Oscar, but took home a Best Director for “Ordinary People” (1980) and an Honorary Oscar in 2002.

    10. Michael Douglas, Hank Pym

    Marvel

    We wouldn’t have Ant-Man without the “Wall Street” Oscar winner’s character, who finds a way to shrink (and supersize) people and objects.

    11. William Hurt, Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross

    Marvel

    Taking over the role first played by Sam Elliott in Ang Lee’s “Hulk,” Hurt’s  general is there in “Civil War” to force the Avengers to sign the Sokovia Accords after everything that went down in “Avengers: Age of Ultron.” And to strongly disapprove of everything Avengers-related. Hurt won Best Actor for 1985’s “Kiss of the Spider Woman.” (Which, we hardly need point out, has absolutely nothing to do with Spider-Man).

    12. Tilda Swinton, The Ancient One

    Marvel

    The Doctor Strange character, a Tibetan man in the comics, was reworked to be an androgynous Celtic woman (a decision not without controversy). Swinton’s previously played Archangel Gabriel (in “Constantine“) and a vampire (in “Only Lovers Left Alive“), so she’s (ahem) an old hand at playing otherworldly, seemingly ageless characters. She won her Oscar for playing an unethical lawyer in “Michael Clayton.”

    13. Marisa Tomei, Aunt May

    Marvel

    Tomei (who won her Oscar for “My Cousin Vinny“) was so eager to sign on, she didn’t realize that Peter Parker’s aunt is usually portrayed as a little old woman with gray hair.  But we’re fine with “Hot Aunt May.” And a teenager’s aunt is just as likely be in her early 50s than her 70s. (For what it’s worth, Rosemary Harris was 64, only 12 years older than Tomei, for her first appearance as Aunt May in 2002’s “Spider-Man.”) Plus, this way we get an “Only You” reunion with Robert Downey Jr.

    14. Jennifer Connelly, Karen

    Universal/Marvel

    You may not be aware that was Jennifer Connelly as Karen, the voice of Peter Parker’s suit A.I. in “Spider-Man: Homecoming.” Which is nifty because, in real life, Connelly is married to Paul Bettany, the voice of Iron Man’s AI,  JARVIS. And she costarred as Betty Ross in the 2003 “Hulk.” Connelly won Best Supporting Actress for “A Beautiful Mind.”

    15. Cate Blanchett, Hela

    Marvel

    The double Oscar winner clearly had a blast playing wicked Hela, who wreaks untold havoc on Asgard in “Thor: Ragnarok.” All hail Goth Queen Blanchett!

    16. Matt Damon, Actor playing Loki

    Marvel

    The “Good Will Hunting” star (who collected an Oscar for cowriting the film), had a hilarious cameo in “Thor: Ragnarok” as an actor reenacting the tragic death of Loki. (Who isn’t really dead after all, of course.)

    17. Lupita Nyong’o, Nakia

    Marvel

    Nakia is not only T’Challa’s freeze-inducing love interest in “Black Panther,” but a conscientious force for all who are exploited and underrepresented. After holding her own in battle, she helps steer Wakanda towards a more benevolent, open relationship with the rest of the world. After a number of voice-only roles, it’s good to actually see Nyong’o, who won an Oscar for “12 Years a Slave,” in action.

    18. Forest Whitaker, Zuri

    Marvel

    The “The Last King of Scotland” Oscar winner played elder Wakanda statesman Zuri, who is the keeper of the heart-shaped herb. According to director Ryan Coogler,  Whitaker thinks of him as “the Wise Old Man, Black Panther’s version of Obi-Wan Kenobi.” (Speaking of… Whitaker also appeared as Rebel leader Saw Gerrera in “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.”)

    19. Brie Larson, Captain Marvel

    Marvel

    Larson went from playing an abducted and imprisoned woman in “Room” (for which she won Best Actress) to a superhero whose realm is the entire galaxy. In the first solo film, Carol Danvers has to figure out who she is, exactly, and overcome the limitations others put on her. In “Room,” she saves herself and her son. In “Captain Marvel,” she saves a whole lot more.

  • Oscars 2017 Winners: The Complete List From the 89th Academy Awards

    HOLLYWOOD - FEBRUARY 20: A display case is seen full of Oscar statues February 20, 2004 in Hollywood, California. These are the Oscar statuettes that will be handed out on February 29 at the 76th Academy Awards ceremony and will be on display at the Hollywood & Highland entertainment complex. (Photo by Carlo Allegri/Getty Images)Awards season comes to a glitzy end tonight with Sunday’s broadcast of the Academy Awards.

    Jimmy Kimmel hosts his first Oscars, which has “La La Land” leading the pack with 14 nominations — and it’s poised to go home with at least nine or ten statues for the mantle.

    The Oscars could also make history tonight; if Denzel Washington wins for “Fences,” he will be the fourth actor to have three Academy Awards — and the first African-American to pull off the feat. And if “La La Land” wins Best Director, Damien Chazelle (32) will be the youngest filmmaker to ever win the award.

  • Oscars 2016 Recap: The 15 Best and Worst Moments

    %Slideshow-369582% The elephant in the room? Consider it addressed.

    From the moment emcee Chris Rock first appeared in his white dinner jacket to the closing-credits playing out under Public Enemy’s “Fight the Power,” the 88th Academy Awards missed no opportunity to acknowledge the Academy’s disastrous PR stemming from a second straight year without any acting nominees of color. The jokes and apologies referencing the #OscarsSoWhite controversy were so numerous that they distracted from the fact that there were 24 awards to hand out, many of them to surprised and emotional winners. As a result, like many of this year’s nominated films, the 3 1/2-hour Oscar telecast was as much about endurance as entertainment. Still, there were some moments that, for good or ill, viewers won’t soon forget.88th Annual Academy Awards - Backstage And Audience
