Following the Scott Pilgrim Vs the World screening at the New Beverly a little over a week ago, photogs caught Mary leaving the cinema with her husband, Riley. You can check out the pics in the gallery.
On Tuesday night, Mary attended the DeLeon Tequila Tidal Issue Dinner With Kate Beckinsale And FLAUNT event at the SLS Hotel in Los Angeles. The issue celebrated at the event was the one Mary recently appeared in.
I have added some new photos of Mary at the event, which you can view in the gallery.
This is pretty cool! The first teaser posters for Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter have come online via IGN.
The official plot for the film has also been released:
“Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter explores the secret life of our greatest President, and the untold story that shaped our nation. Visionary filmmakers Tim Burton and Timur Bekmambetov (director of “Wanted”) bring a fresh and visceral voice to the blood-thirsty lore of the vampire, imagining Lincoln as history’s greatest hunter of the undead.”
The screenplay is by Seth Grahame-Smith, based on his novel of the same name. Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter opens June 22, 2012.
The Fox film stars Benjamin Walker as an Honest Abe opposite Mary Elizabeth Winstead (as Mary Todd Lincoln), Alan Tudyk, Anthony Mackie and Dominic Cooper.
Head on over to the gallery to see the posters in hi-res!
Over the weekend, Mary attended a midnight screening of Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World and did a Q&A session with the film’s director Edgar Wright, comic book creator Bryan Lee O’Malley, co-writer Michael Bacall, and actors Thomas Jane and Clifton Collins Jr. (Vegan Police!)
I’ve added some photos that people took of Mary at the event & have uploaded the Q&A session that btacgnol has kindly uploaded.
You can see the pics in the gallery & watch the video below:
Hollywood.tv has uploaded a video of a couple of celebrities out shopping in the grove in Los Angeles and they managed to have a little chat with Mary. Skip to the 2:30 mark to check out the little interview.
Also, some new Filler Magazine outtakes have made their way online which you can view here.
Sundance has released the synopsis for Smashed which is as follows:
Kate and Charlie like to have a good time. Their marriage thrives on a shared fondness for music, laughter. . .and getting smashed. When Kate’s partying spirals into hard-core asocial behavior, compromising her job as an elementary schoolteacher, something’s got to give. But change isn’t exactly a cakewalk. Sobriety means she will have to confront the lies she’s been spinning at work, her troubling relationship with her mother, and the nature of her bond with Charlie.
Many films indulge the dramatic highs and lows of addiction. Refreshingly, Smashed is interested in the unglamorous middle path—what stumbling through recovery looks like. As Kate tests new boundaries and shoulders the consequences of her choices, this subtle story of imperfect transformation taps into truths about the challenges and losses intrinsic to living life honestly. Genuine performances and a grounded sense of place create an authentic, textured world where three-dimensional characters—neither all bad nor all good—occupy the uncomfortable grey zone of being human.
The screening schedule for the film during the Sundance Film Festival has also been posted:

It’s been a long time since we heard anything about Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, but some news has finally come forward. Film Music Reporter says that Henry Jackman has signed on to score next summer’s movie adaptation of Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter.
Jackman is coming off a busy year with three scores being released in 2011, including X-Men: First Class, Winnie the Pooh and Dreamworks Animation’s Puss in Boots, which is currently playing in theaters. Coming up next month for the composer is the thriller Man on a Ledge.
Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter is set for a release in 2D and 3D on June 22, 2012 by 20th Century Fox.
Now that the film has a composer, hopefully the teaser trailer isn’t too far off! 😀
Riley took to his Magnificat site and updated us about the film.
I’ll admit it, I’m bummed Magnificat wasn’t chosen to be part of the 2012 Sundance Film Festival. I was really hoping we had a shot at Park City at Midnight (the genre portion of the festival) but I knew the chances were very slim considering the number of films submitted. I did hear that they liked the short though so that’s at least a bit of a consolation.
So what’s next? Mary’s film “Smashed” is in competition at Sundance this year so I’ll be tagging along with her and hopefully seeing a bunch of great movies. As far as the short goes, we’ve submitted the film to 15 other fests so far and we’ll slowly begin to hear from them after the new year. I’m so proud of the film and excited for people to see it. Fingers crossed.Thanks,
Riley
Best of luck to Riley and Mary on their short!
Oh, my goodness. This is awesome! Check out the first official still of Mary and her co-star, Breaking Bad‘s Aaron Paul, in SMASHED. In the film, Mary and Aaron play a married couple whose bond is built on a mutual love of alcohol and gets their relationship put to the test when the wife decides to get sober.
Looks like they’re all lovey dovey before Mary decides to stop drinking. Seriously cannot wait for this film.
You can check out the full pic in the gallery!
