Tom Felton Revisits First Day Of 'Harry Potter' Filming

Posted 5/7/12 7:00 pm EST by Fallon Prinzivalli in The Twitter Nation

Remember when your friends would come over and your mom would whip out the ol' photo album? And somehow every picture she showed was extremely embarrassing and you never understood how celebrities always had adorable childhood photos when you looked like a troll dressed in floral spandex?

amazing pic!do u have more? “@DevonMMurray: @TomFelton this was the first day of filming!! Seems like a lifetime ago!! twitter.com/DevonMMurray/s…”

— Tom Felton (@TomFelton) May 7, 2012

That's how we feel when we look at this picture of Tom Felton and Emma Watson from the first day of filming "Harry Potter." Looking back on this photo 11 years later, they look absolutely adorable sitting down to work on some homework in between takes. And they look normal. No neon scrunchies, poofy pink dresses or baggy UFO pants—just jeans, hoodies and a baseball cap. Lucky children.

Elizabeth Banks Is Psyched For 'Catching Fire'

Posted 5/7/12 6:15 pm EST by Kat Rosenfield in Movie News, Movies, Videos

Elizabeth Banks is currently out and about to promote her upcoming film, "What To Expect When You're Expecting," but we couldn't resist asking her a few more "Hunger Games" questions when we caught up with her and co-star Ben Falcone. (I mean, the Quarter Quell is nearly upon us! Priorities!) And since Elizabeth is always game to talk about her role in the dystopian trilogy, we went ahead and asked: Can she get Ben a spot in the sequel?

"Yes," she declared, then turned to Ben and made a mind-blowing pronouncement: "You are the new president of the Capitol!"

Don't freak out, she's only kidding. Probably. Definitely. (Although let's face it, Ben would be a pretty great evil dictator—just look how quickly he dissed his Panem predecessor and blew Donald Sutherland a big, fat raspberry!)

'Spring Breakers' Cast: Good Girls Gone Bad For Interview

Posted 5/7/12 4:33 pm EST by Fallon Prinzivalli in Movies, On The Newsstand, Photos

If fans weren't already aware that "Spring Breakers"—starring Selena Gomez, Vanessa Hudgens and Ashley Benson—isn't a PG-rated teen flick about tanning on the beach and falling in love with the sensitive lifeguard, these photos from Interview magazine will surely clear that up. The film, directed by Harmony Korine, is gritty and violent and has these formerly innocent starlets running around in bikinis, robbing restaurants and plotting murders.

"Spring Breakers" appears to be squeaky clean fun thanks to Selena's and Vanessa's Disney roots and Ashley's role in "Pretty Little Liars" on ABC Family. But Selena told Interview that departing from their stereotypical characters is why she chose this film.

'Snow White And The Huntsman' Cast Give 'Yes/No Show' A Shot

Posted 5/7/12 1:15 pm EST by Kat Rosenfield in Movie News, Movies, Videos

It won't be long now before the cast of "Snow White and the Huntsman" take to the air (and internet) waves for a long, luxurious Q&A session following the debut of an EXCLUSIVE clip from the film—and make no mistake, their question-answering pumps are primed! Thanks, of course, to Josh Horowitz, who sat down with Kristen Stewart, Charlize Theron, Chris Hemsworth and Sam Claflin for the rapid-fire response-a-thon known as the "Yes/No Show."

As always, when the acceptable answers are limited to one of two words, the result can be summed up in just one: SHENANIGANS. Will Kristen repurpose her Snow White costume for Halloween this year? Does Charlize have a superiority complex and a penchant for skinny-dipping? Does Chris woefully underestimate his capacity to tear apart other human beings with his bare hands? (Hint: All these questions can be answered with a big, fat YES.) And now that the cast has had a trial run on managing interviews as a group, they should be that much more fantastic when they get a shot at some long-form responses during their sit-down after the premiere of MTV First: Snow White and the Huntsman tomorrow night.

'True Blood' First Look: Christopher Meloni Is A Vampyr

Posted 5/7/12 12:08 pm EST by Amy Wilkinson in TV News

Ever since we learned former "Law & Order: SVU" star Christopher Meloni would portray a high-ranking member of the Vampire Authority on "True Blood," we've been dying for a glimpse of the befanged baddie. HBO has finally obliged, doling out not only a slew of new publicity stills from the upcoming fifth season but also debuting a new clip (titled "Vampyr"), which shows Christopher at his bloody best.

What exactly we're seeing in this clip, besides some sort of platelet-letting ceremony, is a bit unclear, but the bite opens with a hooded figure sauntering into a candle-lit room, chanting what we think is Latin. Quick shots of the assembled mass reveal newcomers Christopher Heyerdahl ("New Moon") and Carolyn Hennesy (Barb from "Cougar Town"), but it's the closing moments that provide the biggest reveal: It's Detective Stabler under those robes! What would Olivia say?

'Girls' Recap: 'Hannah's Diary'

Posted 5/7/12 11:25 am EST by Amy Wilkinson in TV Recaps

Hannah's not-quite-boyfriend Adam continued to display keen insight into the female psyche during last night's "Girls," sending the least sexy sext in the history of sexts—an image of his penis wrapped in a squirrel skin. Yes, this affair has taken a turn for the hillbilly. And just when it seemed things couldn't get more awkward, a second message pinged through to Hannah's phone: "SRY that wasn't for you." Note the spelling of "sorry." Given Adam's history, it shouldn't have come as much of a surprise that he was seeing someone else, but Hannah was nonetheless bothered. Channeling every best friend ever, Marnie advised her not to respond. And she didn't...for a whole 30 seconds, snapping a naughty pic of her own, meant to, well, I'm not sure.

Boy troubles aside, Hannah seemed to have one part of her life on the right track—with little fanfare, she procured a job. Doing what, exactly, was unclear but it involved Windows. Her boss—a middle-aged man—noticed how tense she was and began administering the Reiki healing skills he picked up at Club Med. Now, I don't know much about this particular practice, but it apparently involves fondling the recipient's breasts. Later in the women's restroom, Hannah asked her co-workers about their boss' tendency towards inappropriate touching, and they said it was just part of the job. After all, he buys them iPods for their birthdays and sends their sisters to camp! (It's also worth noting Hannah got the most ridiculous eyebrow makeover ever during this bathroom bonding session.)

Elizabeth Banks Remembers Beastie Boy Adam Yauch

Posted 5/4/12 6:04 pm EST by Fallon Prinzivalli in The Twitter Nation

The untimely death of the Beastie Boys' Adam Yauch has touched the hearts of music and film fans alike. As a rapper, director and producer, he's been a creative force since co-founding the iconic hip-hop trio in 1978. After the news broke that Adam had lost his long battle with cancer, the entertainment community—including actress Elizabeth Banks—took to Twitter to express their condolences.

Been lucky to have known many amazing talents in this biz, but Adam Yauch ranks at the top. 1 of the most soulful guys ever. #verysad

Elizabeth's Hunger Games" co-star Lenny Kravitz also shared his sentiments, writing, "Rest in peace MCA. You are a legend. No sleep 'till Brooklyn."

'Girl In Progress' EXCLUSIVE Clip: Ah, The Awkward Teen Years

Posted 5/4/12 4:34 pm EST by Fallon Prinzivalli in Crush Exclusive!, Movie News, Movies, Videos

Being a teenager is not easy. Not only is your body enduring all those weird changes, but high school can be a war zone full of mean girls and teachers with bad breath. There's also a 99.9 percent chance your parents don't understand you. If you've ever felt this way, you're not alone.

Meet Ansiedad (Cierra Ramirez), the protagonist of "Girl in Progress," a 13-year-old feeling neglected by her single mother, Grace (Eva Mendes). The two rarely see eye-to-eye: Ansiedad scares her mother with death metal music, and Grace embarrasses her daughter with her booty-pop dance routines. As Grace attempts to balance work and her affair with a married doctor, Ansiedad creates a list of what she needs to accomplish to propel herself to adulthood—based on the coming-of-age stories she's been reading in English class.

Style Superstar: Mischa Barton Twists Her Way To Top Honors

Posted 5/4/12 3:28 pm EST by Kat Rosenfield in Fashion & Style, Style Superstar

Sometimes, claiming the title of best-dressed means stepping outside your comfort zone—as the subjects of this week's style spotlight know only too well! But those who push the envelope in pursuit of untraveled fashion territory can sometimes push it too far, shooting right over the lines of Brave New World and arriving right in the center of Crazytown. Whose fresh take on fashion has catapulted her out of the worst-dressed doldrums and right into Style Superstardom? And who could use a little less daring-to-be-different on her next red-carpet outing?

This week's Style Superstar is rarely seen in the style-wild to begin with, and when she does make an appearance, it's more often than not on (alas) a list of fashion don'ts. But while this white silk dress with a twisty torso and unusual cutout sides is anything but a safe choice, Mischa Barton worked it like a pro at the Women for Women International Gala dinner this week. The actress emerged from her usual out-of-the-spotlight hiding place looking healthy and happy, opting for simple black shoes and a studded necklace to complement the complicated dress. And with bold, wine-red lipstick framing her smile, Mischa not only owned her daring duds but looked to be having a great time wearing them.

Posted 5/4/12 2:14 pm EST by MTV News in Movie News, Movies, Videos

Keep those calendars clear on May 8, because you have a date with the cast of "Snow White and the Huntsman"! That's right. Kristen Stewart, Charlize Theron, Chris Hemsworth and Sam Claflin will be sitting down with our own Josh Horowitz to debut a brand-new clip from their upcoming fairy-tale action flick and chat about all sorts of awesome and intriguing things like, say, picking up a British accent, as Kristen does in this sneak peek below!

"I worked on it for a while, so I was really lucky, I didn't have to jump right in," she said. "I would have been terrified [if I had to jump in], so I felt really confident with it when I went into it. I didn't feel like I was attached to specific lines and stuff, which I would kill myself if I felt that I had to know exactly what I was going to say."

And that's just the very teensiest look at all the amazingness in store! So tune in Wednesday to find out everything you could ever want to know about the June 1 release.
