9 July 2009 3:09 AM, PDT | From FilmShaft.com | See recent FilmShaft.com news

Dead of Night, the supernatural thriller based on the best-selling horror comic-book series, Dylan Dog has completed principal photography, Hyde Park Entertainment Group and Platinum Studios announced yesterday.

The Kevin Munroe directed picture stars Brandon Routh (Superman Returns) as reluctant paranormal investigator Dylan Dog, who finds himself caught in the middle of a war between the demonic undead. Sam Huntington co-stars as Routh’s wise-cracking sidekick Marcus. On the subject of Routh as the iconic Dylan Dog, director Kevin Munroe was all praise:

“Dylan Dog is a character that brilliantly mixes charisma, affability, and hard-driven principles. I couldn’t be happier with Brandon’s portrayal - he meshed all of those aspects into a charming action hero, funny as he was ass-kicking. I can’t wait to share his work with the world.”

The film also stars Anita Briem (Journey to the Center of the Earth) as Elizabeth, Taye Diggs

The 2009 AfterElton Hot 100

10 May 2009 9:48 PM, PDT | From AfterElton.com | See recent AfterElton.com news

After triumphing for two years in a row, Jake Gyllenhaal is not the winner of our third annual AfterElton.com Hot 100 poll (see the results for 2007 here and 2008 here). So which out man did take the top spot? If you’re the kind of person who always burns their mouth biting into that piping hot chocolate chip cookie, you can just cheat and go here to learn who came in first place.

Here at AfterElton.com, we’re thrilled to announce an out gay man topped this year’s list – especially this particular man as most of us voted for him as well. In fact, out gay men snagged nearly 20% of the spots, including the top three. To be sure, we’ve nothing against our straight male crushes, but it says something great about 2009 that there are so many out men to choose from.

What we find almost as interesting

The 2009 AfterElton Hot 100: Men of Color

10 May 2009 9:47 PM, PDT | From AfterElton.com | See recent AfterElton.com news

While African-American men only nabbed 4% of the slots on the Hot 100 list, they pretty much ruled the roost when it came to this category. Indeed, it was nearly a Top 10 sweep with only Wilson Cruz and Mario López sneaking in at the end. As for Asians, B.D. Wong landed at #14 and Daniel Dae Kim came in at #18 while Sendhil Ramamurthy pretty much carried the torch for Indian representation by placing #12. The next highest-ranking man of Indian descent was British native Dev Patel, who made quite an impact in Slumdog Millionaire (2008). Alas, the success of that movie only propelled Dev to #28.

After Cruz and López, the next highest ranking men of Hispanic descent were Gael García Bernal and Guillermo Díaz at #s 20 and 21, respectively. Pop singer Ricky Martin clocked in at #26 followed by soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo at #40.

With any luck, the election of Barack Obama will remind all of us

Dead Of Night is the follow-up Brandon Routh (Superman Returns) has majorly been needing.
