TCA: Average Americans May Enjoy Seeing Rich People Get Taken Down In 'Revenge'

Ray Richmond is contributing to Deadline's coverage of TCA. While sitting on the final TCA panel of the day today, the veteran actress Madeleine Stowe -- a member of the cast on the new ABC drama Revenge that will air Wednesday nights at 10 this fall -- believes that recession-ravaged Americans will welcome a series set among the chi-chi set in the Hamptons that finds the "haves" being treated to the bitter taste of revenge. The series, which premieres Sept. 21, stars Emily VanCamp as a young woman exacting revenge on a wealthy Hamptons clan that destroyed her father. "We're dealing with a particular time in American history where I think the average citizen is going to want to see the takedown of the rich," Stowe said from the stage. Afterward, she elaborated further, telling Deadline, "We all know that we're heading toward very interesting times. I don't know where our country is going to be. But I think the idea of being able to observe these overprivileged people who have everything at their fingertips and at their beck and call given a comeuppance might be sort of a vicarious thrill for the audience." Stowe stressed that disparity between the moneyed class and everyone else "is so huge right now in terms of who's making the money. And I think everyone's feeling their lives starting to slip. So to be able to turn on the tube for one hour and see this sort of escapist fantasy that has a really dark heart I think could be satisfying...There's almost an Upstairs Downstairs quality to what we're doing on this show."

Universal Drops 'Clue' Gore Verbinski Progresses With Hasbro Cash And New Authors

EXCLUSIVE: Universal Pictures has silently dropped from Clue, among the seven Hasbro games qualities the studio contracted to create into movies inside a ground-breaking six-year exclusive deal signed in 2008. Clue becomes the 3rd project from seven to become came by Universal (Monopoly and Miracle, The Range were also started towards the curb), but none of them of individuals projects are dead. Within the situation from the murder mystery game Clue, Hasbro is funding the event, and creating the film with Gore Verbinski's Blind Wink. Verbinski, director from the first three Pirates from the Caribbean films, Rango and also the approaching Lone Ranger, still intends to direct Clue, and that he and Blind Wink's John Krauss are creating with Hasbro's John Goldner and Bennett Schneir. They have just hired Expensive Gordon scribes Burk Sharpless and Matt Sazama to create the Clue script. The authors will draft a take that Verbinski and the fellow producers emerged with this maintains the murder mystery spirit from the game, but increases the setting to some global stage. Beyond scripting Expensive Gordon for The new sony Pictures, Sharpless and Sazama are redrafting Dracula Year Zero. That project's still hanging on at Universal, after being stopped just lacking the beginning line due to a higher budget, when Alex Proyas was pointing and Mike Worthington would star. ICM reps the authors. Is mtss is a clue that Universal no more really wants to roll the dice on game movies? Associates say no. Rather, they let me know that Universal and Hasbro progressively simplified their focus towards the four films that many made sense for that studio: Battleship, the Peter Berg-directed summer time 2012 action movie that stars Taylor Kitsch and Liam Neeson, with Universal just delivering its first trailer Stretch Remedy, that has Take advantage of Letterman pointing and Twilight Saga's Rachelle Lefervre mounted on take part in the rubbery title characterCandy Land, that is being compiled by Kung Fu Panda 2 cowriters Jonathan Aibel and Glenn Berger, who've referred to the film as The almighty from the Rings, with food items and Ouija, that has Micrograms mounted on direct and Platinum Dunes partners Michael Bay, Kaira Larger and Andrew Form creating with Ian Bryce and Hasbro's Goldner and Schneir. The reality, they stated, is the fact that Hasbro is wanting to transfer its top quality items into movies and also the best method of doing that's to spread them around or self-develop after which return to galleries with scripts and talent, because games don't instantly lend themselves effortlessly to narrative films and since these movies are costly to create. Hasbro certainly has got the cash to get it done this way the film transfer of Hasbro's Transformers series has made $2.5 billion over three films and also the latest, Transformers: Dark from the Moon, last evening cracked the $1 billion worldwide gross mark. And G.I. Joe: Retaliation only agreed to be given prime summer time property by Vital, which slotted the film for release on June 29, 2012. While Hasbro lately set a John Hlavin-scripted adaptation from the game Risk with The new sony Pictures and Overbrook's Will Cruz and James Lassiter, Goldner and Schneir have no need for galleries within the development phase. Hasbro is constantly on the develop Monopoly with Scott Free like a potential pointing vehicle for Ridley Scott. Miracle The Range, another dropped projects, doesn't have accessories at this time. The connection between Universal and Hasbro remains fine, sources stated. Privileges holders with strong deals frequently lose persistence with studio partners and contractually pressure the timing of projects, however when Universal suggested pushing back the beginning date of Battleship despite the fact that it known as to allow them to pay Hasbro a $5 million penalty, Hasbro waived the charge because Goldner and Schneir agreed using the assessment produced by the studio, Berg and producer Scott Stuber more time was needed. In the end, neither Transformers nor G.I. Joe originated from toys and never games. Battleship, whose teaser trailer surprised many by presenting aliens right into a story that many certainly wasn't area of the venerable game, would be the true test from the Hasbro/Universal alliance. It will likewise largely determine the knowledge of turning top quality games into films also it might possibly determine the fate of who steers the Universal ship for Comcast. Here's the Battleship trailer again should you skipped it:

Former News of The World Managing Editor Stuart Kuttner Arrested in Phone-Hacking Inquiry

LONDON - Former News of The World managing director Stuart Kuttner became the latest to be arrested in the phone-hacking scandal Tuesday.our editor recommendsFormer News of the World Editor Andy Coulson to Be Arrested FridayConfessions of a 'News of the World' Reporter (Exclusive)Related Topics•Rupert Murdoch Kuttner, who is 71 and retired after 22 years at the paper in 2009, was arrested at a pre-arranged meeting at a London police station where he was detained on suspicion of conspiring to intercept communications, contrary to Section1 (1) Criminal Law Act 1977, and on suspicion of corruption allegations contrary to Section 1 of the Prevention of Corruption Act 1906. These are thought to be same charges brought against former News International CEO Rebekah Brookslast month. As managing editor of the tabloid paper famous for scoops like Sarah Ferguson'saffair with a Texan billionaire and the sexual peccadilloes of a multitude of domestic politicians, Kuttner was one of the few executives who spoke publicly on behalf of the newspaper. In 2008, after the newspaper's Royal editor Clive Goodmanwas arrested for his role in hacking phone messages of Prince Williamand Prince Harry, Kuttner told the BBC that the event had been an isolated one. "It happened once at The News of The World. The reporter was fired. He went to prison. The editor resigned," he told BBC News. However, it is now known that by late 2007 and internal dossier listing multiple instances of phone-hacking already existed within News International. In her appearance before the House of Commons Select Committee last month, Rebekah Brooksalso told MPs that Kuttner had been responsible for issuing payments to investigators working for the newspaper. "The payments of private detectives would have gone through the managing editor's office," she told the Committee. The arrest of Kuttner, who has recently suffered health problems, increases the likelihood that police will also want to talk to former Dow Jones chief executive Les Hinton, who was News International chief executive during the period that the bulk of the phone-hacking is thought to have taken place. News International is also under pressure to explain whether the deletion of hundreds of thousands of emails in April 2010 was relevant to the hacking investigation. The process, which was described as "routine" by the technology company managing News International's data, is expected to come under further scrutiny from police and the Parliamentary committee investigating the phone-hacking scandal. News International has said it is "fully co-operating" with the relevant inquiries. Related Topics International News of the World Phone Hacking Scandal

Civil actions in the United States and Argentina name Daiana Santia, along with others, as being involved in stealing photographs, unfinished images and video from both parts of the yet to be released THE TWILIGHT SAGA: BREAKING DAWN which first appeared on the internet of March 31 of this year. Criminal action in Argentina has also been filed. The investigation, which utilized the services of Kroll Inc. and the law firm of Keats McFarland & Wilson LLP, spanned four continents (North America, South America, Europe and Australia) and has led to the town of Posadas in northern Argentina. It is believed that others may also be involved in the crime and thus the investigation is on-going. While we very much appreciate the legions of committed fans of the franchise and encourage them to create community online, we cannot ignore that property was stolen, said David C. Friedman, Executive Vice President and General Counsel, Summit Entertainment. It is not fair to the majority of fans that want to see the final chapter of the TWILIGHT SAGA film franchise fully realized by the filmmaker and dedicated cast and crew to have these images out and available on the Internet. When the initial images were first leaked the creative team reached out to the internet community directly with the following note. Fans of the franchise took their words to heart and helped slow the spread of the images in support of their shared love for the films. As some of you may know pictures and screen grabs of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn as a work in progress have leaked on the internet. We are extremely proud of this film and also extremely heartbroken to see it out there at this stage. The film and these images are not yet ready or in their proper context. They were illegally obtained and their early dissemination is deeply upsetting to the actors, the filmmakers and Summit who are working so hard to bring these movies to fruition to you in November 2011 and November 2012. Please, for those who are posting, stop. And please, though the temptation is high, dont view or pass on these images. Wait for the film in its beautiful, finished entirety to thrill you Sincerely, Bill Condon, Wyck Godfrey, Summit Entertainment and Stephenie Meyer
