"Sopranos" creator David Chase is transporting movie-goers back to the swinging '60s with his coming-of-age tale "Not Fade Away." The film charts the highs and lows of a fledgling rock band formed by a group of friends in suburban New Jersey, and in keeping with the period, Chase and musical supervisor Steve Van Zandt (also of "Sopranos" fame) ensured the soundtrack was chockablock with groovy tunes by the Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan and James Brown. But with so much material to choose from, how did Chase land upon "Not Fade Away" (penned by Buddy...

In an October interview with Total Film magazine, Tom Cruise revealed that not only would he make as many "Mission: Impossible" films as audiences want to see, but that he was actually in the midst of working on concepts for the series' fifth installment. "I love traveling around promoting different movies because I'm always looking at different places, and I always walk around to see the city," he said. "I look at architecture, subways... coming up with different sequences." Not long after that interview ran, Deadline broke the...

Photo: (Getty) When we took our seats in NYC's Madison Square Garden Theatre for Trey Songz's Chapter V Tour, which also featured Miguel and Elle Varner, we knew two things: Trey Songz likes to take his shirt off; and, Miguel likes to take his shirt off. Lucky for us, both dudes happened to be in a giving mood that night. (I guess we made this year's nice list!) The show was incredible, full of energy and strong vocals all around. With Trey, Miguel and Elle on the bill, it was esentially a showcase featuring some of R&B's most talented...

by Hannah Soo Park Forget "World War Z" and the slew of other stylish zombie-ridden films slated for next year, because Seth Rogen and company are busting out with their own post-apocalyptic adventure, and this one promises what the others don't — tons of laughs and really random celebrity cameos. For their directorial debut, "This is the End," Rogen and Evan Goldberg — both of whom have had a hand in writing and/or producing a string of cult comedies, including "Superbad" and "Pineapple Express" — rounded up a few friends (of the funny,...

by Hannah Soo Park One look at Steve Carell's plasticky mullet for "The Incredible Burt Wonderstone" was quite the tease on its own, but now we've got the movie's first trailer to get us in on all the tacky Vegas action — and by "action," we're referring to what looks to be the ultimate face-off between our two favorite Steves (Carell and Buscemi) and a very Criss-Angel-inpsired Jim Carrey. Watch the trailer below! In case you were blinded by the velvety bedazzled costumes or Carrey's fire tricks to make out an actual storyline, the trailer...

by Ryan Rigley Whether there's a cause or not, rebels have always held a special place in movie history. Dating almost as far back as cinema itself, the great rebels of movies past are still to this day some of the most memorable characters ever created. And speaking of rebels, we've announced that the one and only Rebel Wilson will be the star of the MTV Movie Awards on April 14, 2013! The Australian comedian has been taking the nation by storm as of late, with featured roles in hit movies such as "Bridesmaids," "Bachelorette," and most...

Reeve Carney might sling some Spidey web your way night after night as the star of "Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark," but soon he's about to take on another larger-than-life character. He's set to play Jeff Buckley in a big-screen adaptation of the legendary musician's life. Carney, a real-life musician himself, recently chatted with MTV News about re-imagining the "Last Goodbye" singer for "Welcome to the Rileys" director Jake Scott. And if Buckley fans are nervous about Carney taking on the part, they shouldn't be: he has the blessing...

While you were saying your goodbyes to "Jersey Shore" tonight, you may have caught a glimpse of some serious blockbuster potential during the commercial break. In a set-up worthy of James Bond himself, the preview starts things dark. Two thugs look on as our hero is held captive, chained upright. A bald man, who looks distinctly like the roommate from "Bridesmaids," walks in teasing her, commanding her to tell him when the MTV Movie Awards are. Will she give in? Will she tell? Why does she look a lot like Rebel Wilson, the breakout...

Gaga's Born This Way Foundation is launching the Born Brave Bus Tour! The Born Brave Bus tour begins on January 14 in Tacoma, Washington, and will be going with Lady Gaga across the country with her Born This Way Ball tour. Before the concert starts, people between the ages of 13 and 25 can hang with the BBBT, where they'll be treated to food, activities...

It's been a banner week for Mark Wahlberg. Yesterday, we got a glimpse at the trailer for his upcoming actioner "Pain and Gain," co-starring Dwayne Johnson, in addition to a look at his 2013 opener "Broken City" by way of our exclusive set visit. From all appearances, the draw of this thriller is in getting to watch Wahlberg go toe-to-toe with co-star Russell Crowe, an experience which the "Ted" star told us was as challenging as it was satisfying. "It was intense, but it was intense in a great way," Wahlberg told MTV News of working...
