Watch Stephen Moyer and Topher Grace Show Off Their Russian-Speaking Skills!

Lindsay Miller — Fri, 28 Oct 2011 12:36:42 PDT

Stephen Moyer and Topher Grace might play adversaries in their new spy thriller The Double, but when we talked to them at a recent press day for the movie, the guys were in a friendly - and funny - mood. The duo even showed off a little bit of the Russian they learned for their roles as an FBI agent (Topher) and Russian operative (Stephen) and critiqued each others' accents! Stephen and Topher also talked about being intimidated by their costar, Richard Gere, and Topher admitted that his biggest challenge in the film was playing the father of an infant. Check out our interview, and catch The Double in select theaters starting today.

Richard Gere and Topher Grace Track an Assassin in The Double Trailer

Rose Curiel — Wed, 31 Aug 2011 11:15:07 PDT

A Russian assassin is on the loose in Washington DC in The Double trailer, and it's up to Paul Shepherdson (Richard Gere) to track him down. Shepherdson, a former CIA operative, has come out of retirement to track down the hitman he spent his entire career chasing down - and he begrudgingly accepts the help of an FBI rookie, Ben Geary (Topher Grace). Throughout much of the trailer, Shepherdson attempts to convince his young partner that the assassin is actually dead, suggesting Geary drop the case if he has any concern for the safety of his young wife and kids. So why is a man who is working the case so eager to abandon it?

That's where The Double trailer starts to give too much away. In what seems to be a major plot spoiler, it reveals that Shepherdson may be the assassin he's been assigned to bring in, and it's a pretty safe bet that Shepherdson is up to some duplicitous, double-agent (ahem, thanks to the film title for tipping us off to that, too) shenanigans in the film. The Double hits theaters Sept. 23, but see what you make of the trailer when you

Buzz Time Machine: Topher Grace Sings "Fernando" on That '70s Show

Shannon Vestal — Fri, 04 Mar 2011 09:42:20 PST

Topher Grace goes back in time to the '80s with his new movie Take Me Home Tonight, but traveling to another decade is old hat for the actor, who got his start on That '70s Show. Grace captured my heart as Eric Forman, the sweet center of his group of friends on the vintage-themed series. More than a decade after the show first aired, Grace has come far (as have his costars), so to celebrate his big screen flick today, watch him in one of my favorite scenes from That '70s Show. In it, Eric romances Donna by singing ABBA's "Fernando," which turns into a silly duet - keep it together as you check out his sweet moves.

Take Me Home Tonight: Not the Party of the Decade

Becky Kirsch — Fri, 04 Mar 2011 04:00:00 PST

Most movies try to show you something you've never seen before, but Take Me Home Tonight aims to do just the opposite. Set in 1988, the objective of the comedy is to capitalize on the trends of the decade, poke fun at the style, and pay homage to the films that defined a generation. Unfortunately, it gets so bogged down in piling on the clichés that it comes off as a forgettable knockoff of a John Hughes movie.

The movie takes place over one long night as Matt (Topher Grace) sets out for one purpose: to obtain the phone number of his high school crush, Tori (Teresa Palmer). A recent MIT grad, brainy Matt is unsure what to do with his life and ends up living in his parents' house and working at the local video store. There, he bumps into Tori for the first time in years and fabricates a fancy job at Goldman Sachs to impress her. When he learns that she'll be attending a rager that night, he enlists the help of his twin sister Wendy (Anna Faris) and best friend Barry (Dan Fogler) to keep his charade going.

To find out why the film misses the mark, just

read more. Matt's pursuit of Tori plays out in a predictable but sweet way. Grace has the bumbling-but-endearing routine down cold, and it's easy to root for him as he gives Palmer longing looks and cracks cringe-worthy jokes in her presence. Palmer is equally likable; she's part girl-next-door, part bombshell, but Palmer succeeds at giving Tori a little more depth than just a nerd's high school fantasy girl. Matt's got a few extra layers too; though all he can think about in the short-term is winning Tori over, the movie is ultimately about his inability to figure out the next stop of his life. Unfortunately, the theme holds the comedy back from being a light, entertaining, party flick. Wendy's story line mostly revolves around her struggle to decide if she should dump her boyfriend (Chris Pratt), a party boy with a popped collar who wants to turn her into a housewife. Though I liked seeing Faris playing it straight, her scenes with real-life husband Pratt aren't funny and drag down the film. The '80s throwbacks are fun at first, as Matt and Barry head into the party to the tune of classic hits from the decade (including the "Safety Dance"), surrounded by girls with big hair and neon leggings. After that, it starts to go downhill: Barry's adventure with coke might have been representative of the time, but it only leads to absurdly unrealistic gags that try to push the envelope and instead fall flat. It would have been wise to keep the film focused on Matt and Tori, but unfortunately the filmmakers try way too hard to make Take Me Home Tonight the perfect blend of coming-of-age film and raucous comedy. In the end, we're left with a half-baked love story that only delivers a handful of laughs.

Katie Henry — Thu, 24 Feb 2011 10:29:15 PST

Scarlett Johansson, David Arquette, Anna Kendrick, and Justin Bartha were out last night to support Art of Elysium's Pieces of Heaven art auction in LA. During her break from shooting We Bought a Zoo with Matt Damon, Scarlett posed with the charity's founder, Jennifer Howell, and placed bids on the items up for grabs. Scarlett's on the list of presenters at Sunday's Oscars - have you filled out Buzz's ballot for a chance at winning a big-screen TV? David, who is fresh out of a stint in rehab, attended after recently sitting down with Oprah. Their interview, which airs today, includes David sharing about his lifelong battle with alcohol and what drove him to seek help. Other long-term fans of the organization like Justin, Elijah Wood, and Topher Grace turned out looking casual after suiting up for last month's Heaven Gala. They also put their John Hancock on a white Chrysler that's going to the highest charitable bidder. Twilight's Anna Kendrick picked up a pen to support the cause, as did Ginnifer Goodwin and adorable couple Dave Annable and Odette Yustman.

Laura Prepon (better known as Donna from That '70s Show is giving the small screen another go. The actress has been cast as 20-something Chelsea Handler in the upcoming NBC comedy series based on Handler's book Are You There Vodka? It's Me Chelsea. But Prepon definitely isn't the only That '70s Show alum who is getting a piece of the spotlight lately. The show has only been off the air for a handful of years, but look at how far the cast has come in such a short time.
