Cannes First Look: Josh Hutcherson Goes for the ‘Burn’

Posted on Written by marcie Comments Off on Cannes First Look: Josh Hutcherson Goes for the ‘Burn’

Josh Hutcherson is armed, dangerous and in dire need of a wash in this first-look still from Burn.

The twist-filled thriller, formerly called Plume and the feature debut from writer-director Mike Gan, also stars Tilda Cobham-Hervey (Hotel Mumbai) and Suki Waterhouse (Assassination Nation).

The film, from Film Mode Entertainment and Yale Production, is produced by Jordan Yale Levine, Jordan Beckerman, Sukee Chew, Russ Posternak, Ash Christian and Michael J. Rothstein.

Filmed in the idyllic Hudson Valley, Burn follows lonely, unstable gas station attendant Melinda (Cobham-Hervey) who constantly feels overshadowed by her more outgoing co-worker Sheila (Waterhouse). When the gas station they work at is held at gunpoint by Billy (Hutcherson), a desperate man in need of quick cash, the heist goes terribly wrong and Melinda comes up with a way to make a connection with the robber, regardless of who gets hurt.

Film Mode Entertainment is handling international sales in Cannes. CAA is repping for North American distribution.

Die in a Gunfight

Posted on Written by marcie Comments Off on Die in a Gunfight

Andrew Barrer talks about Die in a Gunfight here’s his Q and A down below:

  • I read that your first script was called “Die in a Gunfight.” How did that come about?

“Gabe and I started working on ‘Die in a Gunfight’ while we were roommates in Chinatown the year after we graduated. At first, we were writing it entirely for ourselves, so the process was kind of insane and hilarious. We would work at all hours of the night, bouncing ideas off each other and writing the wildest story we could come up with. The first draft wasn’t even a movie, but we worked on it more and more seriously and went through a ton of drafts before we showed it to another soul. Then we had our closest friends read it and did some more drafts. We kind of broke ourselves down and rebuilt ourselves into serious screenwriters over the course of that year.”

  • What was that movie about? How did the idea come to you?

“’Gunfight’ is about 20-somethings trying to forge their own identity. And that’s exactly where we were at that time in our lives. I remember the precise moment the title occurred to me. I had just broken up with a long-term girlfriend, and I caught myself having all these ridiculous heroic fantasies about being a tragically romantic figure in the big city. I laughed at myself and started thinking it would be interesting to tell a story about a guy who fantasizes about some heroic fate, like dying in a gunfight, and then is forced by fate to have a classically happy ending instead. I went home and started kicking the idea around with Gabe, and the next thing we knew, we were writing it.”

  • Was “Gunfight” ever made into a film?

“No, but it’s also a project that refuses to die. It actually stands a reasonable chance of going into production this fall, with a team we couldn’t be more excited about.”

Josh Hutcherson stole our hearts as the artistic baker’s son Peeta Mellark. After the series ended, he lent his voice to the animated 3D adventure Epic and picked up parts in various smaller projects, including James Franco’s comedy The Disaster Artist and Steinbeck-inspired historical drama In Dubious Battle. Along the way, Josh even produced and starred in a few projects of his own. But currently, he’s killing it as the star of Hulu’s gamer boy adventure series, Future Man.

Josh to film in Lafayette

Posted on Written by marcie Comments Off on Josh to film in Lafayette

In two weeks, the film 57 Seconds starring Oscar winner Morgan Freeman and the Hunger Game’s Josh Hutcherson will begin filming in Lafayette. President of the Lafayette Economic Development Authority Mandi Mitchell says it’s based on E. C. Tubb’s science fiction work Fallen Angel.

“And it’s a time travel thriller, and it’s going to focus on how technology requires us to look at questions of ethics and morality,” said Mitchell.

The production will shoot in multiple locations in Lafayette including the Cajun Dome and is expected to spend $8.5 million in the city and create 500 jobs. Mitchell says $2.7 million will go towards payroll.

“We are working very hard to ensure that it’s our own Lafayette citizens and citizens from the surrounding area and talent that we have here from years of other film productions,” said Mitchell.

Every second is precious for Josh Hutcherson in the upcoming action thriller 57 Seconds. He plays a tech blogger, after saving the life of a tech genius played by Academy Award winner Morgan Freeman, happens upon an item that allows him to go briefly back in time. His discovery leads him down a dark path of revenge with consequences far beyond his comprehension. Collider is excited to share the first images and key art from the new film ahead of its release in September that unite Hutcherson and Freeman for a time-bending, pulse-pounding adventure.

57 Seconds stars Hutcherson as Franklin Fox who’s about to get the interview of a lifetime with Freeman’s tech visionary Anton Burrell. His career-defining moment is cut short when he thwarts an attack against the inventor. In the aftermath, Franklin finds a ring Burrell dropped that allows the wearer to jump back in time by 57 seconds. Sensing an opportunity, he teams up with Burrell to bring retribution to the pharmaceutical empire that’s responsible for the death of his sister and for ruining the lives of his family. His actions spark a horrifying chain of events that thrusts him into a race against time where crucial seconds could be the difference between life and death.

    Josh Hutcherson on Why a ‘Hunger Games’ Return ‘Wouldn’t Take Any Convincing’ and How ‘I Love L.A.’ and ‘Five Nights at Freddy’s 2’ Got Him Out of a Major Slump

    Josh Hutcherson was trying get the hell out of Los Angeles. For the better part of a decade, the “Hunger Games” star and his girlfriend, Spanish actor Claudia Traisac, had split their time between L.A. and Madrid, but the eight-hour time difference between the cities had grown wearying. So Hutcherson leased an apartment in Brooklyn, and in April of this year, the couple flew into New York City from Spain, eager to launch their new East Coast life — until, in the car from JFK, Hutcherson got a call from his agent.

    “‘How do you feel about going back to the airport right now?’” Hutcherson recalls his agent asking. “I was like, ‘I don’t fucking feel good about it, not at all! Why?’”

    The agent explained that Rachel Sennott, the buzzy star of indie hits “Bottoms” and “Shiva Baby,” was launching her first comedy series with HBO, and she wanted Hutcherson to play her character’s boyfriend. But it was going to start shooting in roughly two weeks, and the show’s eventual title doubled as its location: “I Love L.A.”

    Josh Hutcherson Is Madly In Love

    Posted on Written by marcie Comments Off on Josh Hutcherson Is Madly In Love

    While HBO’s I Love LA has been praised for its cocaine-fueled and roofie joke-laced brand of comedic chaos, one of the pilot’s standout quips is also among its most low-key ad libs. Moments after Maia (Rachel Sennott, the show’s creator) begs her boyfriend, Dylan (Josh Hutcherson), not to let an earthquake interrupt their birthday sex — “If we’re gonna die, I just wanna come!” she cries — she starts lamenting how much older she looks now that she’s turned 27. “You’re skinnier now,” Dylan replies dryly. Then, he waits a beat before dropping the punchline Hutcherson improvised mid-take: “Which I know you love!”

    The way Hutcherson sees it, it’s this kind of tiny-but-telling aside that reveals who Dylan really is and what his relationship with Maia is actually like: something far more layered than just being the nice, normie Spanish teacher to her high-strung influencer manager. “When I was reading the scripts and talking with Rachel about it, [I said], ‘I don’t know why Dylan is with Maia. We have to figure out what that is [because] there’s a version of Dylan that’s very judgy of her,” the actor tells me over a bacon-heavy breakfast at Nine Orchard, the Lower East Side hotel he’s staying at for the week. The version that interested him most was a Dylan who isn’t totally comfortable complimenting Maia for being thinner, yet will still do it because he knows it’s exactly what she wants to hear. “What I wanted to bring to Dylan is that he finds her existence attractive: her wackiness, her spinning, chaotic mind.”

    Josh Hutcherson’s Secret to Being an “Internet Boyfriend”? Stay Offline.

    HEN THE FIRST Five Nights at Freddy’s movie was released in 2023, Josh Hutcherson said his character, Mike Schmidt, may be the role he related with more than any other. Not the part where Mike tangles with possessed animatronic pizzeria mascots, but the part where he has a deep connection to his baby brother (Hutcherson’s real little bro, Connor, has also dabbled in acting) and an obsession with the meaning behind dreams (He himself is fascinated by “lucid dreaming and dream incubation).

    Hutcherson has been acting since the age of nine, when he picked up a phone book in his family’s Kentucky home and called himself an agent. In the time since, he’s played ordinary guys in varying degrees of extraordinary circumstance more than a few times: a reluctant revolutionary in The Hunger Games (making him a reluctant meme in the process), the adopted child of a loving lesbian couple who still yearns to meet his biological dad in The Kids Are All Right, a listless gamer yanked into real sci-fi shenanigans in the cult comedy series Future Man.

    But on the eve of Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 hitting theaters following the original’s blockbuster success, Mike Schmidt may have met his match—when it comes to the claim of Hutcherson’s most relatable role. In Rachel Sennott’s buzzy HBO comedy series I Love LA, Hutcherson plays Dylan, the token even-keeled straight guy in a group of over-the-top girls and gays. It’s a part he proudly plays among the cast off-camera too.

    “I realized that I haven’t played a normal guy in a normal, real-life reality since I was 15 in The Kids Are All Right,” Hutcherson says. “It’s been really fun to get back to the basics and just be a dude in the world having fun and fucking shit up.” Viewers are enjoying it too, with Dylan’s normcore charm landing Hutcherson “internet boyfriend” status.

    Jennifer Lawrence and Josh Hutcherson are reportedly set to return to the Hunger Games in next year’s highly anticipated prequel.

    The pair last starred together in Mockingjay – Part 2, the climactic installment of the original film series.

    US magazines The Hollywood Reporter and Deadline reported that Lawrence, 35, returns as Katniss Everdeen while Hutcherson, 33, will reprise his role of Peeta Mellark in The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping.

    They suggest the actors will appear in a flash-forward sequence which features in the novel the new film’s based on.

    The production company Lionsgate did not respond to a request for comment.

    We asked the 33-year-old about his busy weekend, which saw him battle both Chuck E. Cheese-esque animatronics and Rachel Sennott.

    ESQUIRE: How did you get involved with I Love LA? It feels like Rachel Sennott wrote the character of Dylan for you.

    JOSH HUTCHERSON: That’s Rachel’s secret sauce. She finds a way to cast things perfectly for what she wants and also writes to those voices extremely well. They actually shot the pilot with a different actor playing Dylan a year before. The show went through some changes, and they reached out to me to be the new Dylan. I was over the moon. Rachel’s brilliant. So fucking funny, so smart, such a unique voice. And being on an HBO comedy show, like Girls, Sex and the City, Entourage—it was a dream come true.
