'Hunger Games' UK Premiere: Feed Your Need For Pics

Posted 3/14/12 4:20 pm EST by in Movie News, Movies, Photos


Forget District 12. If you're looking for Katniss, Peeta or Gale, you best book a transatlantic flight. Our favorite "Hunger Games" stars, including Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, Liam Hemsworth and Elizabeth Banks, brought their dystopian drama to London's O2 Arena today for the film's European premiere.

Jen was once again the Girl in Gold, sporting a dazzling gilded halter dress and black belt, while co-star Elizabeth retreaded her citrus-color theme with a zesty lemon-hued frock (perhaps a bit of Effie's fashion flamboyance has rubbed off on her!).

Jeremy Irons To Cast His Spell On 'Beautiful Creatures'

Posted 3/14/12 10:47 am EST by in Casting News, Movie News, Movies


Jeremy IronsPerhaps producers should consider retitling this adaptation "Beautifully Talented Creatures," considering the high-caliber cast they've been able to lure to Gatlin County thus far. The latest glorious get? Oscar-winner Jeremy Irons, who is in final negotiations to join the film, according to a release from Alcon Entertainment.

The legendary actor will play Macon Ravenwood, the mysterious uncle of Lena Duchannes and the unofficial boogeyman of their Southern town. Despite being an avowed hermit, the powerful caster oozes a debonair quality reminiscent of a certain British thespian we know. In short, this is one magical casting (and you can quote us on that!).

'Hunger Games' Red Carpet Fashion: Jennifer Lawrence Does Panem Proud

Posted 3/13/12 7:30 am EST by in Fashion & Style, Movie News, Movies, Videos


It was a very different tribute parade than the one we'll see come March 23, but it was a fiery one nonetheless. The pretty young things of "The Hunger Games" were out in full, fashionable force last night at L.A.'s Nokia Theatre, walking the black carpet for the world premiere of their highly anticipated film. And—dare we say?—Effie Trinket herself would have approved of the dazzling frocks on display.

Leading lady Jennifer Lawrence arrived sans her trademark emblazoned jumpsuit ("Was everyone disappointed I wasn't on fire?" she joked), but her Girl in Gold look certainly made up for the lack of pyrotechnics. The statuesque blond was simply stunning in her floor-length Prabal Gurung gown accented by strategically placed side slits. (No wonder Peeta fell in love with her.)

Jillian Rose Reed: We're Obsessing Over The 'My Super Psycho Sweet 16' Star In This Week's Girl Crush

Posted 3/12/12 5:55 pm EST by in Girl Crush, TV News, Videos


Jillian Rose Reed fast-talked her way into our hearts as Jenna's feisty best friend, Tamara, on MTV's "Awkward," but tomorrow night she's swapping one BFF for another, as she tackles the role of Sienna in "My Super Psycho Sweet 16 Part 3." Sienna is Skye's new roommate, and she has no clue about the survivor's dark past. So in honor of Jillian's MTV twofer, we're awarding her this week's Girl Crush title.

An achievement which, it turns out, fulfilled one of Jillian's life goals. "You don't understand. Like, ever since I was little, I've dreamed about being MTV's crush, and now I've made it," she enthused. "I'm done now. I don't have to do anything more for the rest of my career. I've hit my peak."

'Vampire Diaries' Star Ian Somerhalder Teases Spicy Sage

Posted 3/12/12 5:21 pm EST by in Eye Candy, Hot Stuff, TV News, Videos


Flashback fans, rejoice! When "The Vampire Diaries" returns Thursday night after an all-too-long hiatus, we'll get a peek at what some of our favorite Mystic Falls immortals were doing a century ago, in the semi-"Downton Abbey"-inspired episode "1912."

When Hollywood Crush caught up with star Ian Somerhalder over the weekend during PaleyFest, we just had to ask what to expect from the episode, which introduces us to the pivotal character Sage, played by "Smallville" actress Cassidy Freeman.

"Here's the cool thing: As much as Stefan had Lexi, Damon had this woman Sage, and she was sort of this hot temptress, sultress, bad-ass chick," Ian explained. "She revived him and showed him the way to live and enjoy yourself—realize life is short even for a vampire. Enjoy it. Literally, carpe diem—not to sound trite. I think that was a huge turning point for Damon, and no one's seen it."

'Pretty Little Liars' Star Tyler Blackburn Talks Caleb's Return, Shanking Skills

Posted 3/12/12 2:34 pm EST by in TV News


Tyler BlackburnIf we were to voice one complaint about ABC Family's soapy hit "Pretty Little Liars," it'd be that Rosewood's resident hunks just can't seem to stay in town. I mean, Caleb Rivers goes on more cross-country treks than a JetBlue flight attendant. (We'd date him purely for the frequent flier miles.) But, thankfully, the cutie's returning for season two's penultimate episode airing tonight—and just in time to get Hanna out of hot water.

"Well, once again, Caleb is helping his lady love," Tyler told Hollywood Crush in anticipation of "If These Dolls Could Talk." "He kind of steps up to the plate and helps her to sort of figure out some mysteries revolving around A. And he's kind of put in a really uncomfortable situation. One he doesn't want to do, but he's doing it for Hanna. To fans, it's both funny and also gut-wrenching. We'll just leave it there."

Oh, Tyler. That's nearly as ominous as one of A's trademark texts! Will Caleb's mysterious plan incite more retaliation from A? (You'll recall a few episodes back, he was set up to take the fall for hacking school records.)

'Vampire Diaries' Cast Stalks PaleyFest, Looks Sexy Doing It

Posted 3/12/12 10:31 am EST by in Photos, TV News


Every day a multitude of stars wander through the halls of MTV News to talk about their latest projects and goof around with staff members. But sometimes we catch stars elsewhere, and that's why we put together Spotted!, a daily compendium of stars in the wild.

Our month-long vacation from Mystic Falls is nearing an end, and all we have to say is, "Bloody fantastic!" "The Vampire Diaries" returns this Thursday with the flashback episode, "1912," and over the weekend at PaleyFest, a few lucky fans and reporters (like us!) got to preview the episode and ask plenty of questions of our favorite CW stars.


Kevin Parry for PaleyFest

The cast, including Paul Wesley, Ian Somerhalder, Nina Dobrev, Matt Davis, Kat Graham and Candice Accola, were on hand at L.A.'s Saban Theatre, walking the carpet and spilling all about love triangles, time travel and much more. Be sure to stick close to Hollywood Crush as we roll out all the goodies!

'On The Road' With Kristen Stewart: First Trailer Debuts

Posted 3/9/12 7:43 pm EST by in Movie News, Movies


On the Road Kristen StewartKick the tires and top off the gas tank because we're going "On the Road."

The first trailer for the big-screen adaptation of Jack Kerouac's iconic, semi-autobiographical novel has hit the web, giving us our first glimpse of director Walter Salles' vision of the Beat Generation. Starring Sam Riley, Garrett Hedlund and Kristen Stewart, "On the Road," follows young writer Sal Paradise (Sam) as he makes the acquaintance of free-spirited Dean Moriarty (Garrett), who inspires him to pack his bags and go, yes, on the road. Along for the ride is Dean's young wife Marylou (Kristen), who from the looks of the trailer doesn't mind flashing a bit of skin and showing off her fancy footwork.

Taylor Kitsch In 'John Carter': So Many Red-Hot Photos!

Posted 3/9/12 5:50 pm EST by in Eye Candy, Movies, Photos


It's Friday. You've had a long week. We understand. Which is why we're sending you into the weekend with a photo flipbook that gives new meaning to the phrase "out of this world."

Former "Friday Night Lights" star Taylor Kitsch is eschewing his No. 33 jersey in favor of a loin cloth for Disney's space epic "John Carter." And with Taylor spending a good 75 percent of the film in nothing more than strategically placed rags, we'd be remiss in not highlighting some of the choicest stills. Because you know how we do.

So before you shutdown your computer and head out to Happy Hour, why not spend a few happy minutes clicking through our gallery of Taylor Kitsch's biceps? And Taylor Kitsch's pecs. And Taylor Kitsch's...you get the point.

We'll give you two some privacy...

Elizabeth Olsen: We're Obsessing Over The 'Silent House' Star In This Week's Girl Crush

Posted 3/8/12 5:12 pm EST by in Girl Crush, Movies, Videos


Elizabeth Olsen broke out in a big way last year thanks to her turn as a former cult member in the indie "Martha Marcy May Marlene." And she'll continue down the dark and creepy path in this week's goose-bump-inducing horror flick "Silent House," playing a girl trapped inside her family's lake house while bad things happen inside. As Elizabeth cuts her scream queen teeth, we're awarding her another title: this week's Girl Crush honor.

As to her own Girl Crushes, Elizabeth admitted (rather refreshingly) that none of the lovely ladies are actually famous. "I have a crush on so many girls. I don't know if any of them are actors," she said with a laugh. "I think they're just friends of mine."
