» L7 Interview: The Girl Who Played With Fire

Blazing A Trail:Noomi Rapace talks to Glen Ferris about taking on the role of troubled heroine Lisbeth Salander in The Girl Who Played With Fire

Stieg Larsson’s Lisbeth Salander is one of modern literature’s most fascinating characters and she’s obviously got a huge following. How did it feel when you first took on the role?
I was terrified at first. It felt like a suicide mission in a way because how could I possibly live up to everybody’s expectations? So I just said to myself, I have to give up and do it my way because there’s no way I can please everybody. I just had to push away all those outside thoughts and instead concentrate on finding Lisbeth in myself.

» L7 Interview: Sylvester Stallone

Sylvester Stallone talks about rounding up Hollywood’s greatest hard men for ultimate action movie The Expendables. Words: Glen Ferris

You’ve got to hand it to Sylvester Stallone. Not only is he still kicking ass and taking names at the age of 64 but for his latest film, he’s hit upon a brilliantly simple idea. The Expendables sees a band of mercenaries heading off on a mission to South America to topple an evil dictator and all of the major parts are played by the most iconic action stars ever to (quite literally) hit the big screen. Jason Statham, Jet Li, Mickey Rourke, Dolph Lundgren, Randy Couture, Steve Austin, Bruce Willis and even the Governator himself, Arnold Schwarzenegger, all make an appearance in the film that has got movie fans chomping at the bit.

» Music: Green Man Festival

Jeff Hemmings chats to Fiona Stewart, MD of the Green Man Festival, to find out what’s in store at this summer’s huge outing

Set in the beautiful Brecon Beacons of Wales, Green Man is one of the most successful boutique festivals in the UK, consistently selling out and attracting a higher calibre of artist each and every year.

I see Green Man has already sold out. What do you put the success of the festival down to?
Green Man always sells out… most people say it’s because they can create their own festival experience there, as there are so many different things to do and see. For me, festivals are all about freedom of expression. It should be a place where you can escape to. It is a homemade festival made mostly at my kitchen table with my friends. In a world which is become overly produced and processed people seem to like this.

» L7 Interview: Nicolas Cage

Newly graduated wizard Nicolas Cage talks to Emmanuel Itier about conjuring movie magic on The Sorcerer’s Apprentice

At the age of 46, Nicolas Cage seems to be experiencing quite a revival. Having spent the past few years knocking out critically mauled fare, he has now turned 2010 into the year of his career rebirth with acclaimed roles in Kick-Ass and Bad Lieutenant. But instead of capitalising on his newly regained king of cool credentials, he’s now throwing audiences a typical curveball by taking the lead role in a movie based on the dancing brooms sequence from Disney’s Fantasia. Updated to modern-day New York, it tells the tale of a young novice (Jay Baruchel) who is appointed apprentice to Cage’s wise conjurer.
