Bilbo, Such a Tease! New 'Hobbit' Trailer

Faster than you can say "Game of Thrones," a brand new teaser trailer for "The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug" arrives and reminds everybody that J.R.R. Tolkein's Smaug was the O.G. in the dragon scene.

Peter Jackson's second entry in his "The Lord of the Rings" prequel trilogy isn't due in theaters until December 13, but, hot on the heels of yesterday's poster reveal, this first look offers plenty to whet our appetites for a return visit to Middle Earth. Get More »

9 Foreign Actors Who Do the Worst American Accents

Olympus Has Fallen FilmDistrict

People are always complaining about how much Americans suck at doing accents, whether it's Kevin Costner as "Robin Hood" or Keanu Reeves seemingly coming off a heroin addiction in "Bram Stoker's Dracula." And we do suck sometimes, yes.

However, we want to at least even the playing field a little by pointing out some bafflingly bad American accents perpetrated by thesps from overseas. Europe and Australia may have the best acting academies and such, but not every graduate is as versatile as they should be, starting with a certain Gerard Butler from this past weekend's "Olympus Has Fallen."

An apple a day keeps Orlando Bloom away? It might take a little more than that.

The "Lord of the Rings" star (aging nicely) seems right at home playing a psycho doc who abuses his powers as a healer (and his access to various drugs) in the creepy pursuit of a pretty patient (Riley Keough) in "The Good Doctor," a new kind of stalker thriller that asks a very frightening question: If you can't trust your own doctor, who can you trust?

Orlando Bloom is more than just a pretty face. Though yes, he's definitely that too. But this dark and dreamy thesp has just signed on for a meaty role alongside Djimon Hounsou in the crime drama "Zulu."

Helmed by Jerome Salle (the force behind "The Tourist"), the flick will be adapted from the novel by Caryl Ferey.

The story follows two Cape Town police officers (Bloom and Hounsou, of course) tasked with investigating the murder of an 18-year-old girl who happens to be the daughter of a member of the championship-winning Springboks rugby team. Soon, however, the investigation goes far beyond this single murder to reveal ties to the country's apartheid past.

Sounds like these two may have bitten off more than they could chew. Get More »

2011 was a big year for Amanda Seyfried's ex Dominic Cooper. The dark and handsome thesp starred in not one, but two roles in "The Devil's Double," as well as nailed the character of Howard Stark in the blockbuster "Captain America."

But it appears Cooper's just getting started — because word around Tinseltown is that he is set to replace Clive Owen in the international thriller "Cities." (Before you ask, Owen had to bow out due to scheduling issues.)

Helmed by "The Bank Job" director, Roger Donaldson, "Cities" is set just before the financial crash, with stories taking place all over the world that (presumably) are intertwined and (presumably) relate to finance. Get More »

Kirsten Dunst and Orlando Bloom are moving out of "Elizabethtown" and into different "Cities."

The starring duo of Cameron Crowe's 2005 romantic drama are joining Clive Owen for an international thriller covering a hot button topic: world finance, according to The Playlist.

"Cities" is a cautionary tale about greed and ambition that blends three interlinking storylines: in New York, a hedge fund manager (Owen) pursues money, sex and power; in London, a young couple struggles to buy a house; and in Mumbai, a cop investigates his corrupt colleagues who have ties to property speculators.

All For One And Six 'Three Musketeers' Clips For All

The Three Musketeers
Summit

Before they were a delicious candy bar, "The Three Musketeers" were the heroes of Alexandre Dumas' 1844 novel (and, in 1993, a much-needed paycheck for a then drug-hungry Charlie Sheen).

Now Paul W.S. Anderson, the man behind the "Resident Evil" franchise, has seen fit to rewrite Dumas in the form of a 3-D steampunk adventure with lots o' explosions and his wife, Milla Jovovich. Are we complaining? Hells no. See why for yourself with six clips from "The Three Musketeers." Get More »

GALLERY: Orlando Bloom Gets Touchy-Feely

We always knew Orlando Bloom was a lover, not a fighter.

Sure, the "Three Musketeers" star often plays swashbucklers and sword-wielders and the like, but really, he just loves hugs.

For the entirety of his decade-long career, he's been getting all kinds of up-close-and-personal with his friends and co-stars, from Johnny Depp and Keira Knightley to Elijah Wood, Mark Ruffalo and Charlize Theron.

Really, the guy just can't keep his hands to himself. Which begs the question: when can we get in on some of that action?
