Alan Rickman - Die Hard Anniversary - Bad to the Bone

BY: FRANK DIGIACOMO

You really don't need to watch the clip to understand this about the franchise: Alan Rickman, who played  deliciously contemptuous Hans Gruber n the first film, remains, far and away, the best Die Hard baddie of the franchise. His simpering imitation of an American hostage when McClane first encounters him is a thing of enduring beauty.

Why Rickman hasn't been made a Bond villain by now is beyond me.

'Fifty Shades of Grey' producer meets with reps from Henry Cavill's agency (Photos) FIFTY SHADES OF GREYJANUARY 10, 2013BY: BARBIE KAVETSKY (EXAMINER)

Dana Brunetti is known for his Twitter banter with fans, as well as some notorious feuding, but this time around the producer is feeding the flames of a pretty hot rumor. On January 9 Brunetti tweeted a photo of a "meeting with 'agents' at CAA." Creative Artists Agency is touted as one of the biggest agencies in film and just happens to represent a "Fifty Shades of Grey" favorite, Henry Cavill, who is quickly becoming the fans' choice to play the sexy Christian Grey.

Brunetti is the most vocal member of the "Fifty Shades" film team, which also consists of his producing partner Michael De Luca, author E L James and screenwriter Kelly Marcel. His most recent tweet will definitely spark even more rumors and speculation regarding Henry Cavill's involvement in the film. The current "Man of Steel" was once named the "Unluckiest Man in Hollywood" by Empire magazine due to his frequently being passed up for big roles. He had been rumored to play Cedric Diggory in "Harry Potter," Edward Cullen in "Twilight" and James Bond, all parts that eventually went to other actors. It seems that his streak of bad luck is over as he finds himself one of Hollywood's most sought after actors. Cavill was named the hottest breakout star of 2013 and along with "Fifty Shades" is rumored to be cast in the "Godzilla" reboot
