The pure brilliance of Peter Dinklage means he will never be without a role or two. The Game of Thrones actor has now attached himself to a Rumpelstiltskin movie at Sony Pictures.
Whilst the film is still in its development stages, there isn’t much information to divulge concerning the plot outline. However, Dinklage is on board to star and produce the fairytale mystery. Patrick Ness has been hired to write the script with Karen Rosenfelt, whilst Circle of Confusion’s Matt Smith and David Alpert, David Ginsberg, and Josh Weinstock are also on board to produce. Dinklage and Ginsberg with produce through their Estuary Films banner.
Even with Game of Thrones coming to its evitable end, this project wouldn’t be Dinklage next venture. My Dinner With Herve is next on the agenda for the star.

How did a low budget horror movie about a diminutive Irish monster spawn five sequels, a new reboot, and the career of Jennifer Aniston? EW tracks the deranged history of the Leprechaun franchise.
British actor Warwick Davis says he has “specific” fans—well-wishers who want to discuss just one of the several fantasy franchises in which he has appeared. “People talk about Star Wars, people talk about Harry Potter,” he explains, “and people talk about Leprechaun.”
Alert readers will have noticed that one of these franchises is not like the others. While Star Wars and Harry Potter have raked in billions of dollars,...

Hell hath no fury like a you-know-who who has been you-know-what-ed in the new thriller Scorned, which is released on Blu-ray and DVD Tuesday. The film stars AnnaLynne McCord (90210) as a woman who discovers her boyfriend (Billy Zane) has been cheating on her with dramatic and — judging by the movie’s trailer — dog-in-microwave-featuring consequences.
Below, Scorned director Mark Jones (Leprechaun, Rumpelstiltskin) talks about the film — and the time he got punk’d by George Peppard.
Entertainment Weekly: Tell us about Scorned.
Mark Jones: Okay. Well, it’s basically Misery meets Fatal Attraction with young people.
I’m in!
Yes.

Pinocchio's Revenge; 1996, 96 min.; dir. Kevin Tenney; available on Netflix until 2/1/2013
This week I decided to make a kind of fairy-tale theme. The 90s were kind of notorious for them; the big name obviously was the Leprechaun series. So, here's our first trip in tonight's drive-in: Pinocchio's Revenge. This is actually a pretty tepid piece of film watching, and really may not be worth it if you're not sitting in a room with a bunch of friends who can equally marvel at the fact that this thing was released. Ever.
The premise is this: a public defender single mom acquires a marionette as a piece of evidence in a case she recently lost. Mom's daughter, suffering from some abandonment issues re: her dad, takes to the little lump of wood. Of course mischievous things start happening, like mom's boyfriend falling down some stairs, and the vaguely foreign housekeeper being beaten to death with a fire-poker.
