Coming Soon: 'The Starving Games' Parodies 'The Hunger Games'

The very first trailer (plus poster & images) for The Starving Games aka The Hunger Games spoof has arrived. And they're not just making fun of Suzanne Collins’ Panem. They mess with The Expendables, The Avengers, Sherlock Holmes and even with Harry Potter in this one. 

Written and directed by Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer, the guys behind parodies Vampire's Suck, Meet The Spartans, and Date Movie, the movie is the story of "When lithe and fearless Kantmiss Evershot (a dead ringer for Jennifer Lawrence) volunteers to take part in the winner-takes-all STARVING GAMES, she takes on a whole lot more than we could ever have bargained for…. including Harry Potter, Sherlock Holmes and The Avengers."

Take a look at the trailer:

"Good morning hungry citizens of District 12! Don’t forget today is the Gathering Ceremony, so parents please bring your beloved children to the square for a random death lottery.”

Leven Rambin & Isabelle Fuhrman Make "Hollywood's Next Big Thing" List

Leven Rambin and Isabelle Fuhrman were both included on Glamour Magazine's Hollywood's Next Big Thing List:

Remember Glimmer in The Hunger Games? This 23-year-old is ready for more action this summer with Percy Jackson 2: Sea of Monsters. We love the names of her dogs, seen here prowling the sidewalk outside the hotel. They’re Sookie Stackhouse (a nod to True Blood) and Rooney Mara. “I’m obsessed with her in real life,” Rambin says.

Our youngest up-and-comer (she’s just 16!) got some face time in The Hunger Games but recently stepped behind the camera. She was so inspired by our shoot that she came back to the Chateau to direct her sister Madeline’s music video at Bar Marmont.

Liam Hemsworth Introduces 'Paranoia' Trailer & Talks Working With Screen Legends

Liam Hemsworth introduced the new trailer from his upcoming movie Paranoia on YahooMovies and talked about working with screen legends Harrison Ford, Gary Oldman and Richard Dreyfuss. The movie comes out August 16, 2013. 

Harrison Ford shaved his head to play a duplicitous tycoon in Paranoia, and co-star Liam Hemsworth dared not to touch it.

"I didn’t rub his head," the 23-year-old actor confirmed with Yahoo! Movies. "I was afraid I might get knocked in the face or something."

Ford isn't the only screen legend Hemsworth gets to share screen time with in the corporate espionage film — he also has scenes with Gary Oldman and Richard Dreyfuss.

The Hunger Games actor admits shooting Paranoia was an intimidating experience. "Knowing that those guys were coming aboard is pretty frightening," he said of the three actors, who have all been nominated for an Oscar at one time or another (Dreyfuss won one in 1977). "I’ve never worked with people like that before."

Joss Whedon Hopes 'The Hunger Games' Will Lead to More Female Movie Heroes

Director, producer and nerd-god Joss Whedon (The Avengers, Buffy The Vampire Slayer) just spoke with The Daily Beast about his frustration with the lack of female heroes in film and his hope that films like The Hunger Games will lead to a paradigm shift:

Why do you think there’s a lack of female superheroes in film?

Toymakers will tell you they won’t sell enough, and movie people will point to the two terrible superheroine movies that were made and say, You see? It can’t be done. It’s stupid, and I’m hoping The Hunger Games will lead to a paradigm shift. It’s frustrating to me that I don’t see anybody developing one of these movies. It actually pisses me off. My daughter watched The Avengers and was like, “My favorite characters were the Black Widow and Maria Hill,” and I thought, Yeah, of course they were. I read a beautiful thing Junot Diaz wrote: “If you want to make a human being into a monster, deny them, at the cultural level, any reflection of themselves.”

Jennifer Lawrence to Star in & Produce 'The Rules of Inheritance'

Jennifer Lawrence is set to take on a new role in movie-making: producing. Lawrence will star in and produce The Rules of Inheritance. Susanne Bier, who won an Oscar for her Danish film In a Better World, will direct.

The film is an adaptation of the memoir of the same name by Claire Bidwell Smith, about the hardships she went through when both of her parents were diagnosed with cancer when she was 14.

Producing alongside Lawrence will be Bruce Cohen, who worked with Lawrence on Silver Linings Playbook. Abi Morgan (The Iron Lady) is writing the script.
