The Sorcerer’s Apprentice
Walt Disney Pictures, producer Jerry Bruckheimer and director Jon Turteltaub, the team behind the “National Treasure” franchise, present “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice”—an innovative and epic comedy adventure about a sorcerer and his hapless apprentice who are swept into the center of an ancient conflict between good and evil.
Balthazar Blake (Nicolas Cage) is a master sorcerer in modern-day Manhattan trying to defend the city from his arch-nemesis, Maxim Horvath (Alfred Molina). Balthazar can’t do it alone, so he recruits Dave Stutler (Jay Baruchel), a seemingly average guy who demonstrates hidden potential, as his reluctant protégé. The sorcerer gives his unwilling accomplice a crash course in the art and science of magic, and together, these unlikely partners pit their powers against those of the fiercest—and most ruthless—villains of all time. It’ll take all the courage Dave can muster to survive his training, save the city and get the girl as he becomes “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice.”
With a cast that also includes Teresa Palmer, Monica Bellucci, Toby Kebbell and Omar Benson Miller, and a screenplay by Matt Lopez and Doug Miro & Carlo Bernard from a screen story by Lawrence Konner & Mark Rosenthal and Matt Lopez, “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” opens on July 14, 2010.
The executive producers are Todd Garner, Nicolas Cage, Mike Stenson, Chad Oman, Norman Golightly and Barry Waldman. The associate producer is Pat Sandston. The remarkable team of artists behind the camera includes director of photography Bojan Bazelli (“Mr. and Mrs. Smith,” “The Ring”), production designer Naomi Shohan (“The Lovely Bones,” “I Am Legend”), costume designer Michael Kaplan (“Star Trek,” “Pearl Harbor,” “Armageddon”) and film editor William Goldenberg (“National Treasure” films). The visual effects supervisor is Academy Award® winner and three-time nominee John Nelson (“Gladiator,” “Iron Man”), the special effects supervisor is Academy Award winner and nine-time nominee John Frazier (“Spider-Man 2,” “Pirates of the Caribbean” films), and the stunt coordinator is George Marshall Ruge (“Pirates of the Caribbean” and “National Treasure” films). The composer is Trevor Rabin (“National Treasure” films, “Armageddon”).

Our Family Wedding
El casamiento es nuestro, la boda es de ellos". Es la primera lección que deben aprender todas las parejas recién comprometidas, y Lucía (América Ferrera) y Marcus (Lance Gross) no son la excepción. En OUR FAMILY WEDDING aprenden del modo más difícil, que el camino al “Sí, acepto” puede estar plagado de conflictos familiares. Apenas regresan de la universidad, los enamorados anuncian que planean casarse, entonces descubren que sus papás -dos egocéntricos exagerados e hípercompetitivos- podrían causar verdaderos estragos, en el día más especial de sus vidas.
Con insultos volando a diestra y siniestra y la furia a flor de piel, todo el mundo se pregunta si estos padres tan peculiares (Forest Whitaker y Carlos Mencia) lograrán llegar enteros al final del pasillo. Mientras la madre de Lucía se encuentra muy ocupada planeando la boda de “sus” sueños, la única equilibrada de la comitiva es Ángela (Regina King), la mejor amiga y abogada del padre del novio, quien se las arregla para mantener la calma, cuando la locura alcanza su punto culminante.
Con sólo unas pocas semanas para planear la boda, Lucía y Marcus no tardan en descubrir que es muy cierto el dicho que dice: cuando te casas con alguien, te casas con toda su familia. ∆
