Home is where the heart is, and for Paul (Antonio Banderas), it also includes a very sketchy stranger named Jack (Jonathan Rhys Meyers). A reimagining of the heart-pounding French thriller Papillon Noir, Brian Goodman's Black Butterfly is teased in a new trailer and poster ahead of its May 26th theatrical and VOD release.

[1] Shia Labeouf may be out [2] of the Transformers franchise, but the young actor is hardly wanting for work. He's wrapped John Hillcoat's The Wettest County in the World, is currently shooting Robert Redford's The Company You Keep, and is now attached to star in an offbeat romcom going by the working title A Giant. Gil Kenan (Monster House) will direct from his own script, which revolves around a girl who's unlucky in money and love. When she moves back home with her brother, she forms a relationship with her next-door-neighbor -- "a 20-foot-tall man-child" (Labeouf). Labeouf was reportedly in the running to star in Fox's Frankenstein, which is being directed by Shawn Levy, but ultimately chose A Giant over the horror adaptation.
