Here we are, just a day away from the December 25 release of "The Spirit," and naturally, we're already asking about a sequel (because, let's face it, it's never to early to start talking sequel). So, when MTV had the chance to talk with "The Spirit" co-stars Gabriel Macht and Eva Mendes, we decided to see if they thought a follow-up to this Christmas' latest offering to the superhero film genre would be worth it.
While Macht seemed to be ready for it, Mendes had a different point of view. Check out the video below to see what the two stars had to say:
What do you think, readers? Would you like to see a sequel to "The Spirit," or is one film enough? We wanna know what you think in the comments.
We're getting closer and closer to the wide release of "The Spirit," and we here at Splash Page couldn't be more excited to see Will Eisner's classic comic hero come alive with a healthy dose of Frank Miller grit. So, when MTV sat down with stars Eva Mendes and Gabriel Macht, we could barely contain ourselves from talkin' comics with the stars -- from "The Spirit" to "Watchmen," and even "Ghost Rider" manages to come up in conversation.
Check out what the two had to say in the following video:
So, what do you think of Macht and Mendes' comments? Do you think reading the comics are important when taking on a role, or do they have the right idea? Talk it up in the comments.
Just in case you missed it, on tonight's premiere of MTV's new show "Spoilers," we ran an exclusive, behind-the-scenes featurette on the women of "The Spirit," hosted by the film's director, Frank Miller. Between the movie's roster of Hollywood's hottest starletts -- including the likes of Eva Mendes, Scarlett Johansson and Jamie King just to name a few -- we could've easily filled up the entire episode, but let's be honest, "The Spirit" ain't the only movie we're excited about here at Splash Page HQ!
That said, in case you missed it, we've got you covered with an exclusive look at the clip featured on "Spoilers. Check it out below -- and if you're looking for more on "The Spirit," Watchmen," "Twlight" and other upcoming releases, be sure to check out the "Spoilers" main page by clicking here.
With the December 25 debut of Frank Miller's "The Spirit" approaching, Lionsgate has fed the 'Net with yet another trailer for the highly anticipated adaptation of the Will Eisner series.
We've posted the new trailer after the jump in all of its oft-cited "Sin City"-esque glory, full of black and white scenes splashed with occasional color. The trailer also provides a better look at Samuel L. Jackson's villain, The Octopus, as well as quite a bit of skin, courtesy of Gabriel Macht (The Spirit) and Eva Mendes (Sand Saref).
We also catch a glimpse of the much-discussed brawl 'tween The Octopus and The Spirit which had fans grumbling when it was screened during San Diego Comic-Con and Jackson favorably comparing the film to a Looney Tunes episode during a recent MTV News interview. Read more...
In an interview with MTV News last week, Nic Cage insisted that, not only were talks moving forward for “Ghost Rider 2,” but they had progressed to a point where both villains and locations were bandied about.
“It looks like it will take place in Europe and the character will work with the [Catholic] Church,” he said. “It’ll be a completely new experience.”
Cage is obviously enthusiastic - but is everybody?
“No, I think ‘Ghost Rider’ had its moment,” co-star Eva Mendes told MTV, more or less echoing statements she made last May. “I don't know about a sequel, but I don’t think it needs one.” Read more...
