Kim Kardashian is in development on a live-action Bratz film with Amazon MGM Studios, TheWrap has learned.
Plus, the “American Horror Story: Delicate” and “All’s Fair” actress is eyeing to star as the movie’s villain.
Kardashian is producing alongside Erik Feig and Julia Hammer for Picturestart and Jason Larian and Jasmin Larian for Mga Entertainment, with Mga’s Isaac Larian as executive producer.
Charlie Polinger and Lucy McKendrick from “The Plague” are writing the script, though the logline is being kept under wraps. Outside of the Bratz universe, the pair is also working on Polinger’s “Masque of the Red Death” and McKendrick’s “Fangs,” with both producing on each other’s projects.
However, this will not be the first live-action Bratz movie. Lionsgate infamously made “Bratz: The Movie” in 2007 with Logan Browning, Janel Parrish, Nathalia Ramos, Skyler Shaye and Chelsea Staub.

"You are welcome to use any weapons you find." Paramount Global Content has unveiled an official trailer for a trashy action movie called The Last Gunfight, the latest creation from stuntman-turned-filmmaker James Bamford. This looks like it should be avoided like most of his movies. He also stole the title from the classic 1960 Japanese film The Last Gunfight which starred Toshiro Mifune. However, in this new movie - in a ruthless underground tournament, the world's top assassins battle in a fight to the death. But hidden among them is a rogue crew with its own deadly agenda: infiltrate the competition, survive the bloodbath, and take down the mastermind pulling the strings. "It's for revenge, and a fortune worth killing for." What an original idea... The Last Gunfight features Jon Voight, Adam Woodward, Charlotte Vega, Eloise Lovell Anderson, Daniel Bernhardt, Brock Pierce, Shaina West, and Skyler Shaye. Why are they fighting...

An excited crowd of country music festival-goers and Palm Springs locals looked on as Charley Crockett kicked off a night of songs and conversation by asserting a truth that any songwriter knows: “It’s easy to start a song. It’s a lot harder to finish one,” he said. Stephen Wilson Jr. and Drayton Farley, seated on the intimate stage next to him, nodded in agreement. Rolling Stone’s Senior Editor Joseph Hudak opened the night by asking the three groundbreaking country music artists about their songwriting process in the...

"The killer is on the loose, solve the puzzles to send them home. To win the game, only one shall remain." Paramount + Sp Media Group have revealed an official trailer for nail-biting new thriller from director Sean McNamara titled Dangerous Game: The Legacy Murders. This almost seems like a riff on Knives Out and Ready or Not and Jumanji all in one, or any of the whodunit movies these days, with a focus on family with many secrets. Jonathan Rhys Meyers and Jon Voight star in this suspenseful thriller filled with twists and turns. A family reunion at a remote mansion takes a lethal turn when they are trapped inside and forced to play a deadly survival game where only one will make it out alive. The ensemble cast also features Will Sasso, Laura Mennell, Megan Charpentier, Kaya Coleman, Skyler Shaye, Dylan Playfair, and Bradley Stryker. This looks like it's...

Who knew James Haven was a Miley Cyrus fan? Angelina Jolie's 40-year-old brother met the 21-year-old pop star backstage at the Staples Center in L.A. Saturday. "Last night #Bangerz was out of this world," Haven tweeted after the concert. Sharing a picture of himself with the "Adore You" singer, he gushed on Twitter, "Miley you blew me away." Haven attended the show with actress Skyler Shaye, who just so happens to be Jon Voight's 27-year-old goddaughter. The two also posed for a picture with two blow-up dolls and three other friends. When Cyrus took the stage later that night, she locked lips with another famous attendee: "Dark Horse" singer Katy Perry! Christina...

Bratz
This review was written for the theatrical release of "Bratz".Finally, a postfeminist multicultural musical extravaganza for 8-year-old girls. Is "Bratz" not the most totally stylin' movie ever? Grownups won't think so, but for their daughters who share a "passion for fashion" with the dolls that are giving Barbie a run for her money, it will be the event of the season.
As the fab four fashionistas collectively known as Bratz enter the emotionally charged terrain of high school, the filmmakers have infused the girly glamour with broad Life Lessons about the importance of friendship and self-expression -- hard to argue with and, for nontweens in the audience, hard to care about.
It was just a matter of time before the multiethnic dolls (dollz?) received a live-action makeover, expanding their multibillion-dollar empire of magazines, books, a computer-animated series and videos with titles like "Rock Angelz" and "Passion 4 Fashion Diamondz". The same "nag factor" that drives sales of Bratz merch, despite many parents' aversion to the dolls' bling-bespangled stripper aura, will generate business for the film.
They may not be able to spell, but the Bratz are not bubbleheads. Dialing down the doll/cartoon characters' sass quotient and, to a lesser extent, their shopping obsession, screenwriter Susan Estelle Jansen ("The Lizzie McGuire Movie") has created some real-girl talents and problems for the central quartet of BFFs. Cheerleader Sasha (Logan Browning) is the subject of postdivorce joint custody. Science geek Jade (Janel Parrish), tragically, must hide her inner fashion diva from her academics-minded parents. The single mom of soccer star Cloe (Skyler Shaye) struggles to make a living. As these three pursue new interests and new friendships, Yasmin (Nathalia Ramos) goes it more or less alone, with the support of an exuberant Latin-Jewish household that boasts not only mariachis but Lainie Kazan.
Also on hand is Jon Voight, providing much-needed moments of comic subtlety amid the frenetic proceedings. As principal of Carry Nation High, he's in thrall to the real power behind the campus surveillance cameras: his daughter, Meredith Baxter Dimly. A familiar composite of every-uppity blond high school-movie villainess, she's played with apt over-the-top gusto by Chelsea Staub. Trailing an entourage that includes a dreamy but spineless boyfriend (Stephen Lunsford) and a pampered lapdog named Paris, Meredith has shrewdly divided her domain into neatly organized cliques, complete with lunchtime seating chart.
After the girls' head-turning high school entrance, the action jumps ahead two years, to the lead-up to the inevitable talent show. This might give adults the false hope that things will move along at a brisk pace. But for all the quick cutting, the story feels endless, much the way momentous adolescent experiences can look inconsequential to anyone out of their teens. Sean McNamara directs with a breathless, short-attention-span frenzy, backed by a wall-to-wall pop soundtrack, and the young actresses tend to deliver their lines with drama-queen urgency. Will Yasmin, Jade, Sasha and Cloe see past the comfort of cliques to once again be best friends? And how many shopping-at-the-Grove montages will it take to find out?
To its credit, the film makes getting the boy a bonus rather than the be-all end-all. Singer Yasmin overcomes stage fright with the encouragement of a cute guy (Ian Nelson) who happens to be deaf, and Jade's science lab partner (nicely played by Chet Hanks) turns out to be a key ally.
McNamara ("That's So Raven," "Beyond the Break") is most inspired in the set pieces, in particular a plot-point food fight set to Strauss. Bernadene Morgan delivers a profusion of spirited costumes, and production designer Rusty Smith balances institutional drab with effusive off-campus sets.
