Brooke Shields is hoping young stars are shielded from experiences like on “The Blue Lagoon” nowadays.
The iconic actress starred in the shipwreck film at age 14 opposite then-18-year-old Christopher Atkins. The duo played two cousins-turned-lovers who consummate their relationship after their boat is shipwrecked in the South Pacific. The 1980 controversial film featured nudity from both Shields and Atkins.
“Never again will a movie be made like that,” Shields said during her “Now What?” iHeartRadio podcast. “It wouldn’t be allowed.”
Atkins agreed, adding, “Oh gosh, no. Animals were hurt in the movie. We were spearing fish and all kinds of crazy things. Children are naked running down a beach; couldn’t do that now.”
While Shields and Atkins were encouraged by production (and Shields’ mother) to have an off-screen romantic relationship, the duo agreed their stark age difference made the pressure uncomfortable.
“They wanted us so desperately to fall in love with each other,...

If you know anything about me, you know that I’m ride or die for the Resident Evil films, and a lot of that is due to the fact that Milla Jovovich just kicks all the ass in all those films. I’ve been a huge fan of hers for decades now (I can still remember seeing Return to the Blue Lagoon in theaters with my cousin Missy during the summer of 1991), so it was a real pleasure to speak with her once again for her latest project, Monster Hunter, a new video game film adaptation from her husband and frequent collaborator, Paul W.S. Anderson.
During our chat, Jovovich discussed her appreciation for the Monster Hunter video game series, having the chance to base her character in the movie, Captain Artemis, on a real-life superhero she had the opportunity to train with, working alongside Tony Jaa, and the fearsome females...

Filmmakers considering a tropical paradise for their next project often look to Fiji, an archipelago of more than 330 islands that boasts some of the world’s most beautiful coasts, lush forests and remote jungle villages. In addition, the South Pacific nation, which is a major tourist destination with nonstop airline service to many major cities, offers an aggressive financial lure: a staggering 47% tax rebate.
The bar is not high to qualify for this sweet incentive. Feature film and TV productions are required to spend a minimum of 250,000 Fijian dollars, or about $188,022. The project cap is $28,000,000 Fijian dollars, or about $13.3 million.
Making things easier for producers is the fact the Fiji boasts one of most developed economies in the South Pacific, with good infrastructure. English is the one of the official languages and widely spoken.
Notable feature films that have shot in Fiji over the years include “Adrift” (2018), “Cast Away” (2000), “Contact...

Netflix is getting creative with its advertising for the galactically-anticipated re-debut of Arrested Development. Right now, if you search for something “blue” on the Netflix website — either just typing “blue,” or perhaps specifically looking for something with the word in the title, like Blue Velvet or Return to the Blue Lagoon or Mickey Blue Eyes — you’ll note errant bits of blue paint along the side, along with a telltale blue handprint. Clip on the image below for a look:

Marine conservationist and film-maker who started out by hunting sharks and ended up defending them
Ron Taylor, who has died aged 78, was a great observer and defender of sharks. He began his career earning a living as a spearfisher, and later filmed some of the most exciting sequences for Steven Spielberg's 1975 film Jaws, but then spent the rest of his life educating people about the animals he regarded as "fascinating marine creatures". "There are over 360 different shark species in the world's oceans," he noted in an interview in 2007, "yet only a few of those are potentially dangerous. Each one has its own characteristics. Sharks have evolved to fulfil a different niche in the marine environment."
Sharks existed before the dinosaurs, and prospered for millions of years, yet during their lifetime Taylor and his wife, Valerie – an equally passionate advocate – saw them come under threat. Many are killed for their teeth,...

Exclusive: Young Australian actors Brenton Thwaites and Indiana Evans are following in the footsteps of Christopher Atkins & Brooke Shields and Brian Krause & Milla Jovovich as the leads of The Blue Lagoon, Lifetime’s contemporary remake of the 1980 romance/adventure movie starring Shields and Atkins. (Jovovich and Krause toplined the 1991 sequel.) In the story, which echoes the biblical tale of Adam and Eve and is based on the novel by Henry De Vere Stacpoole, Thwaites and Evans will play Dane and Emma, a boy and a girl marooned on a tropical island where they grow up together, fall in love and discover sexuality. The Sony TV-distributed project has been in the works at Lifetime since 2004 with Heather Rutman and Matt Heller as writers. Filming is slated to begin this month in Puerto Rico. Neil Meron, Craig Zadan and Judith Verno are executive producing. Sony and Verno were also behind the recent...

"A story of natural love," the poster for the 1980 film "The Blue Lagoon" proclaimed, hoping to deflect from the fact that the movie was essentially an excuse to get a teenage Brooke Shields to take off her clothes (though yes, body doubles were used too). That sensual story was told again in "Return To The Blue Lagoon" a PG-13 movie that still managed to get a 15 year old Milla Jovovich to disrobe. We'll pause while you pervs go to Netflix. Anyway, long story short, Deadline reports that Lifetime of all places, is plotting a remake. Weird, right? But apparently this thing has been in the works since 2004 and is now gearing up to shoot in February in Puerto Rico. Not word yet on what young, nubile, up-and-coming teen is going to get to get ogled, but it seems they need to find a director first. Just a couple of months to go there,...

Lifetime has greenlit a remake of The Blue Lagoon, The Hollywood Reporter confirms. The original 1980 feature, starring Brooke Shields, followed a shipwrecked boy and girl who are marooned on a tropical island and mature without the intervention of grown-ups. The Blue Lagoon grossed $58.9 million in the domestic box office that year. The success of the film spawned the 1991 sequel, Return to the Blue Lagoon, which introduced audiences to Milla Jovovich.

Last year's Golden Globe winner Kevin Bacon (for the television movie Taking Chance) and Resident Alien: Afterlife star Milla Jovovich presented Steve Buscemi with the Golden Globe Award for Best Performance by an Actor in a Television Series – Drama for his role in HBO's Boardwalk Empire. That took place at the 2011 Golden Globe Awards held at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills last Sunday. Kevin Bacon was also nominated for a Golden Globe — as Best Supporting Actor — for The River Wild back in 1994. Milla Jovovich has received three Razzie Award nominations, for Return to the Blue Lagoon (1991), The Fifth Element (1997), and The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc (1999). Photo: © HFPA.

Unfolding in 3D for the first time, the fourth instalment of the Resident Evil series welcomes back British filmmaker Paul W.S. Anderson to the helm, eight years after he directed the original.
Afterlife continues the adventures of Alice - played by Anderson's wife Milla Jovovich - as she battles the evil Umbrella Corporation.
Aside from the new screen format and a change of location to post-apocalyptic Los Angeles - complete with fire-ravaged Hollywood sign - the latest film delivers all of the same flesh-hungry zombies and blood-spattered action sequences for fans of the Capcom video games on which the series is based.
Anderson has evidently been re-watching The Matrix trilogy because almost all of the set pieces rely heavily on slow motion and bullet-time special effects with characters somersaulting to avoid the shells as they glide through the air. The film would be at least 10 minutes shorter if everything happened at real-time speed.

In fact, I should be ashamed of making such an obvious move that's a cliché in and of itself; and is best followed by an argument that, after pulling off Leeloo in The Fifth Element, we collectively expected better of Milla Jovovich than crap like The Fourth Kind and the never-ending Resident Evil franchise. That's not where I'm going, however, because I just don't see the point in reenacting that little sci-fi dork drama, which you can already read at just about any movie site.

The beach movie has come a long way from the days of Frankie & Annette, Gidget and The Ghost in the Invisible Bikini.
On second thought, maybe it hasn't changed at all. They've always been about the same things: babes, beefcake, and trying to get laid without getting sand in your nether regions.
Of course, the beach films of yesteryear could only hint at it, but you knew that beneath the Aquanet and Brylcreem, those kids were waiting to sexually explode (in between having to dodge all those giant radioactive insects so prominent in that era).
The beach films of recent times don't have to hint at anything, and can be as blatantly sexual and nuded up as they want. And they don't have to tiptoe around the "love that dare not speak its name" either, although if you read between the lines of those 60's films, we were always there,...

Milla Jovovich has been in the acting game for just over twenty years, with a resume that includes such notable films as The Return To The Blue Lagoon, Dazed And Confused, He Got Game and The Fifth Element. But it's her role as the confidant yet tortured Alice in the Resident Evil series that has catapulted her to worldwide notoriety - and transformed her from a waifish model to a butt-kicking geek goddess.
