One of the most anticipated movies of the holiday season, Quentin Tarantino‘s Django Unchained has released a new trailer.

With this new trailer, we get to see more of the film’s action scenes and a glimpse at some of the dark comedy that is a staple of Tarantino films.

Jamie Foxx‘s Django sets out to find his wife, played by the luminous Kerry Washington, who ends up in the hands of Calvin Candie (Leonardo DiCaprio) – a sadistic plantation and slave owner who puts Washington’s character through hell.

Jonah Hill‘s appearance is unexpected and funny, DiCaprio’s slave owner is slimy and Christoph Waltz‘s bounty hunter is creepy with a wink and a nod to the spaghetti westerns of long ago.

Django Unchained opens on Christmas day.

F Scott Fitzgerald and his classic The Great Gatsby is coming to the big screen courtesy of director Baz Lurhmann with the first trailer giving us a glimpse at the lush visuals the director went for in this modern adaptation.

With flappers and fireworks, manicured lawns, falling confetti and Model-Ts; cast Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire and Carey Mulligan are reeling in the decadence of 1920s New York.

Lurhmann, who reunites with DiCaprio (the pair first worked together 17 years ago in Romeo + Juliet) uses 3D and a contemporary soundtrack (welcome Jay-Z and Kanye West‘s “No Church In The Wild”) to propel you through the dizzying light of Jay Gatsby (DiCaprio) Nick Carraway (Maguire) and Daisy Buchanan (Mulligan).

Blake Lively and Leonardo DiCaprio have split following five months of togetherness.

The pretty pair were first photographed aboard Steven Spielberg‘s yacht in May during the Cannes Film Festival with Lively and DiCaprio taking romantic strolls throughout Europe.

The 24 year-old Gossip Girl star made at least one trip down under to hang with the 36 year-old actor as he filmed Baz Lurhman‘s adaptation of The Great Gatsby. Lively was thought to be the frontrunner to land the role of Daisy in the flick until Carey Mulligan was cast.

A source told People magazine the breakup was “amicable.”

Lively didn’t stay out of the spotlight long. The Savages actress was spotted with her Green Lantern costar Ryan Reynolds in Boston, riding the train together and grabbing sushi at O Ya restaurant.

Leonardo DiCaprio is in talks to play the villain in Quentin Tarantino‘s next film Django Unchained.

Talks are about to get underway for Leonardo DiCaprio to play the role of villainous ranch owner Calvin Candie in Django Unchained, the Sergio Leone-style spaghetti Western that Quentin Tarantino wrote and will direct as his next film. DiCaprio is being courted to play a charming but ruthless proprietor of Candyland, a despicable club and plantation in Mississippi where female slaves are exploited as sex objects and males are pitted against each other in “mandingo” style death matches. Candie is a slave’s worst nightmare and the freed slave Django must cross him in order to reclaim his wife.

DiCaprio as the villain sounds like an awesome idea, this is why I love Tarantino so much. He’s always coming up with out-of-the-box concepts like this. Casting is all up in the air for this movie, but when things get locked down and this movie moves forward, we are in for a treat.
