Armie Hammer has come a long way from playing the Winklevi twins. After that breakthrough role in “The Social Network,” the actor has appeared in everything from “J. Edgar” and “The Man from U.N.C.L.E.” to “The Birth of a Nation” and this year’s Sundance hit “Call Me by Your Name.” He’ll next be seen in “Mine,” whose first trailer just premiered. Watch it below.

Though it bears no official relation to the Oscar-nominated “Land of Mine,” Fabio Guaglione and Fabio Resinaro’s drama likewise concerns land mines.

Emma Slade, Steve Kearney, Briget Callow-Wright heading for the UK’s Production Finance Market.
Sales agents from across the world yesterday voted New Zealand’s Emma Slade as the producer at the 37º South Market who most deserves a spot at the UK’s Production Finance Market (Pfm) in October, plus $1,860 (A$2,000) in travel assistance.
Runner-ups Steve Kearney and Bridget Callow-Wright from Australia also won places – but no cash.
Organizers said 2,203 meetings were held as part of the eighth edition of the co-financing film market, which is part of the business arm of the Melbourne International Film Festival (Miff).
Slade will be seeking a sales agent for The Love Of Humankind, the lead project in her slate, during her visit to London.
The “vodka-fuelled tragicomedy about unrequited love” is to be directed by comedian Danny Mulheron (Fresh Meat) from a script by he and Brian Sergent.

Known for his outrageously comical short films like My Blue Heaven and Lau Sai (Diarrhea) and his debut feature film Blood Ties released in cinemas last October, Chai Yee-Wei's follow up feature currently with a working title Twisted (撞鬼) has just recently wrapped. As touched upon during my previous interview with the writer-director, it's not quite the surprise that he's found a project to exercise that funny bone of his in a supernatural comedic feature, with a pan-Asian ensemble cast from Singapore with Mark Lee (李国煌) and Randall Tan, Hong Kong's Zhu Mi Mi (朱咪咪), Taiwan's Linda Liao (廖佩伶) and his leading lady from Blood Ties, Joey Leong (梁祖仪) from Malaysia.
