Oliver Stone, director of “Savages” recently launched his own website and an official website of the flick, including many new behind the scenes photos and posters. The movie and Oliver Stone himself also do have now Twitter, so be sure to follow both of the accounts .
”It’s just a wholesome story about drugs, sex, and violence,” says Blake Lively of Savages. To be more specific, director/co-writer Oliver Stone’s action thriller follows two best pals and marijuana growers, Chon (John Carter‘s Taylor Kitsch) and Ben (Kick-Ass‘ Aaron Johnson), who run afoul of a Mexican cartel leader named Elena (Salma Hayek) seeking to control the guys’ crop of superstrong weed. Ben and Chon wind up declaring war on the cartel after Elena and her henchman (Benicio Del Toro) kidnap Ophelia (Lively), a Laguna Beach hippie who’s in a relationship with both Ben and Chon.
A first look on “Hick” (hits theaters on May 11) in terms of a poster has been released! The poster cover features Blake with her co-stars Chloe Moretz and Eddie Redmayne.
Taylor Kitsch will forever be Tim Riggins to us, but the Friday Night Lights actor has moved from the small screen to the big screen big leagues — first with John Carter, followed by Savages and Battleship. In the forthcoming Savages, out this summer, Taylor falls in onscreen love with luminous Gossip Girlstar Blake Lively.
Blake plays O, and she gets kidnapped early in the Oliver Stone-directed flick, Taylor tells MTV. The rest of the movie is essentially a fast-paced love triangle, Taylor explains. “Basically, these two guys that are in love with this one girl in their own way and will truly do anything for her and to get her back.”
Oh, and the movie apparently opens with an “intense” sex scene between Taylor and Blake. The scene is so steamy Taylor is skeptical the director will keep it, musing, “That opening scene, if [Oliver] keeps it that way …”
WWW.COLLIDER.COM: In Novemeber, we reported that Steven Soderbergh had left the adaptation of the 1960s spy TV series The Man from U.N.C.L.E. and turned his attention to The Bitter Pill with Scott Z. Burns (The Informant) writing the screenplay. The Playlist now reports that the film—now titled The Side Effects—has locked down financing and cast Blake Lively, Jude Law, and Channing Tatum in the lead roles. Lively will play, “Emily Hawkins, a woman who turns to prescription meds to cope with the anxiety of the upcoming release from prison of her husband.” Tatum will play the husband and Jude Law will play Hawkins’ new psychiatrist. This will be Lively’s first film with Soderbergh, but it will be Tatum’s third collaboration with the director (Haywire and Magic Mike) and Law’s second (Contagion).
According to The Playlist, “There’s several meaty supporting roles still to be cast,” and Soderbergh plans to shoot the movie in April for a 2013 release. The Side Effects will be Soderbergh’s penultimate movie before his retirement/sabbatical. His last movie will be the Liberace biopic, Behind the Candelabra starring Michael Douglas and Matt Damon, will shoot this summer and be released on HBO His latest film, Haywire, opens January 20th, and his next movie, Magic Mike, opens June 27th.
As for the casting on The Side Effects, Lively did a solid supporting turn in The Town and she has the potential to give a great lead performance if she gets the right role, so hopefully this will be the one. Law is fine casting and he did good work in Contagion. It’s Tatum with whom I continue to have a problem. I still haven’t found a movie where his screen presence isn’t overshadowed by furniture. I’m hoping that streak will end since the guy isn’t going away anytime soon.

The Weinstein Co. movie again reteams Russell with his Fighter starMark Wahlberg in the story of a man who suffers from a mental collapse and is released from a health facility determined to find the silver linings in his life.
The hot Hollywood role of the moment is that of a depressed woman who, when her husband dies, goes on a sexual spree, even at the cost of her job. She befriends the man and becomes his love interest.
According to insiders, Russell is intensely screen-testing the following in-demand actresses in Los Angeles starting today and going into the weekend: Elizabeth Banks, Kirsten Dunst, Blake Lively, Rooney Mara, Rachel McAdams, Andrea Riseborough and Olivia Wilde.
