She was fantastic as Toast, one of the Five Wives in Mad Max: Fury Road, but now Zoë Kravitz is ready to take centre stage as a gun-slinging hero. She’s signed up for the lead in Western drama Black Belle. The film, which is set just after the Us Civil War, will find her as a lone bounty hunter who specialises in revenge killing, tracking down and shooting people she’s hired to find. But then a client brings her information about her mother’s murderer, and as she digs into the case, she realises, to her horror, that she knows exactly who is to blame. Free Ride director Shana Betz is on to call the shots, working from a script by Tasha Huo. The cameras should be cranking, and the bullets flying, this September. Kravitz, who also appears in the Divergent films, will next be seen in comedy drama Dope,...

A movie called Free Ride that invokes the old "gas, grass, or ass" mantra via voiceover narration pretty clearly wants viewers to consider the possibility that nothing comes easily, especially when said movie is about drug-running in late-'70s Florida.
But Shana Betz's autobiographical film, in which Anna Paquin stars as the writer-director's mother Christina, barely delves into the physical and emotional fallout of this heyday before walking it back with an epilogue that reveals (mild spoilers to follow) things didn't actually turn out so badly in the end.
Christina and her two daughters (one of whom would go on to make this movie) go from sleeping in their car to living in a house of their own mere weeks after the matriarch starts working for a powerful drug s...

It’s this coming Friday that we official begin to segue from final 2013 calender offerings (we’ve got several Best of Lists coming at you) and into the 2014 theatrical slate. Among the indie offerings being released this weekend, we have the true rags to riches to further complications drama that premiered at the Hamptons Int. Film Festival. Starring Anna Paquin, Drea de Matteo, Stephen Moyer and Cam Gigandet, Free Ride (which got picked up by Phase 4 Films in Cannes) will be released simultaneously on VOD with theatrical releases in NYC and Los Angeles. We’ve got your first look at the theatrical one-sheet featuring a fantasy mug shot of Paquin’s character.
Written and directed by Shana Betz, in search of a better life for her family and desperate to escape her tumultuous relationship, Christina (Anna Paquin) hastily moves to Florida and enters the dangerous world of the high-stakes underground drug scene.

It's a bit disorienting to see Anna Paquin walk into a bar and not be surrounded by vampires and a shape-shifting boss, but this is not True Blood, it's Free Ride, and she's not Sookie, she's Christina, an enterprising young woman who enters the underground drug scene in Florida. Once she gains entry to the criminal world, she discovers, according to the official synopsis, that "dealing drugs at the height of South Florida's smuggling heyday has its price. As law enforcement closes in on Christina and her drug operation, she must find a way to salvage the life she has desperately worked to repair before it all comes crashing down." Shana Betz wrote and directed the film, based on her own real-life experiences. Drea de...

It.s strange how a television character can forever change someone.s concept of an actor. Despite being one of the only people on True Blood I had even heard of before the show began, Anna Paquin is the only person from that show whose on-screen character.s ridiculous accent can no longer be separated from her other cinematic performances. Even when I see her earlier, younger performances, I can't stop thinking about Sookie Stackhouse. It.s my cross to bear, and I.ll soon have another chance to finally get over it. Paquin.s next film is the true story crime drama Free Ride, the directorial and screenwriting debut for Shana Betz, whose own past was the inspiration for the film.

Since his great turn back in The O.C. as Volchok in days gone by, Cam Gigandet has been getting some pretty great screen-time, even if some of his films haven’t found the recognition they deserve.
He was great in Never Back Down back in 2008, and had an entertaining part in last year’s Emma Stone-starrer Easy A (if you’re a John Hughes fan, I highly recommend this film), and starred alongside Paul Bettany in Priest this year, which I thought was much better than its box office takings reflect.
Variety are now reporting that Gigandet is set to join indie film, Free Ride, which is to be led by Anna Paquin, of True Blood/X-Men/The Piano fame – the last of which won her an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress.

Author Charlaine Harris, whose writings the HBO show "True Blood" is based around, has stated that main character/telepath/world-class hottie Sookie Stackhouse will never pull a Bella Swan and become a vampire herself despite being very much immersed in their neck-sucking shenanigans.
The show's star Anna Paquin, however, is planning to engage the enemy at close range when she co-stars with an ex-"Twilight" bloodsucker in an upcoming indie pic.
According to Variety, Cam Gigandet joins Paquin in the small-scale drama "Free Ride" where she will play "an abused single mother who moves to Florida with her daughters amid the colorful yet turbulent culture of the late 1970s."
Gigandet of course portrayed the vicious tracker vampire James in the original "Twilight" movie and the skilled actor/martial artist scored a "Best Fight" trophy at the 2009 MTV Movie Awards for his trouble. He's since been seen in the likes of "Burlesque,...
