AVON, Ohio - Stephen Dowling came in to an open short film audition held just inside a freezing cold hallway where dozens of aspiring actors and actresses awaited their turn to try out their acting chops.

After driving out to get a space heater to help out his potential actors, Conrad Faraj arrived with a smile, excited to cast his next film. As director, producer, and countless other roles for his latest project, the soon-to-be short film "You Will Go Darker," Faraj knows what he's looking for and who he envisions in his films.

Chris Pratt Addresses 'Jurassic World' Casting Rumors



The last few months have been rife with casting rumors surrounding the Jurassic Park sequel, Jurassic World. One of the main names involved in these rumors was that of Parks and Recreation star, Chris Pratt. Though filmmaker Ron Howard (whose daughter, Bryce Dallas Howard is set to star in the film) reportedly leaked the news of Pratt's casting, the upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy actor this week confirmed the news and spoke openly about his excitement for the project.

During a recent press event for his new movie, The Lego Movie (in which he voices the main character of the animated adventure film), Pratt revealed that, to him, Jurassic Park was the biggest movie of his life. He even compares it and his fanaticism for the film to that of the Star Wars franchise.

Audition of the Best Villain in Thor


There’s really no arguing that Loki is the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s best villain. As played by Tom Hiddleston, he’s so slyly charismatic that he often threatens to steal the show from right out under the real hero, Chris Hemsworth‘s Thor. But when casting for the first Thor was going on, Hiddleston wasn’t initially set on playing the bad guy. In fact, he originally tried out for the part of Thor.

The bonus features released with the Thor: The Dark World Blu-ray include Hiddleston’s original audition tape for the role, in which he goes bare-chested, rocks long blond locks, and swings around the iconic hammer. See Hiddleston in action as Thor after the jump.
