David Schwimmer ("Run, Fatboy, Run," "Friends") and actress Liana Liberato as they discuss their new film, "Trust." Directed by Schwimmer, the story follows a suburban family torn apart when 14-year-old Annie (Liana Liberato) meets her first boyfriend online. When Annie discovers her friend is not who he claims to be, her parents (Clive Owen, Catherine Keener) are shattered and struggle to support her as she comes to terms with what has happened to her once innocent life.
Join actor Aaron Eckhart as he discusses his new film, "Battle: Los Angeles." For years, there have been documented cases of UFO sightings around the world, but in 2011, what were once just sightings become a terrifying reality. When Los Angeles becomes the last stand for mankind, it’s up to a Marine staff sergeant (Eckhart) and his platoon to take on an enemy unlike any they’ve ever encountered.
Join director Greg Mottola, writer/actors Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, and cast Jason Bateman as they discuss their new comedy adventure “Paul” - the story of two sci-fi geeks whose pilgrimage takes them to America's UFO heartland. While there, they accidentally meet an alien who brings them on an insane road trip that alters their universe forever. And as two nerds struggle to help, one little green man might just take his fellow outcasts from misfits to intergalactic heroes.
Join filmmaker and actor Josh Radnor and actor Malin Akerman as they discuss their newest film, "happythankyoumoreplease”, a sharp comedy centered on a group of 20-something New Yorkers struggling to figure out themselves, their lives, and their loves. Radnor wrote, directed, and stars in the film along with Akerman, Kate Mara, Zoe Kazan, Tony Hale, and Pablo Schreiber.
Join Leighton Meester (“Gossip Girl”) and Minka Kelly (“Friday Night Lights”) as they discuss their new film, a psychological thriller about a deranged college freshman (Meester) who becomes obsessed with her new roommate (Kelly).
Join director Miguel Arteta and cast members Ed Helms (“The Office”), Anne Heche (“Men in Trees”), Isiah Whitlock Jr. and Alia Shawkat as they discuss their new film “Cedar Rapids”. To call insurance agent Tim Lippe (Helms), "naive" is a gross understatement. He's never left his small hometown. He's never stayed at a hotel. And he's never experienced anything like Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Sent to represent his company at the annual insurance convention, Tim is soon distracted by three convention veterans (John C. Reilly, Anne Heche and Isiah Whitlock Jr.) who will show him the ropes and push his boundaries. For a guy who plays everything by the book, this convention will be anything but conventional.
Join filmmaker D.J. Caruso and actor Alex Pettyfer as they discuss their action-packed thriller, "I Am Number Four".
Join Fred Armisen and vocalist/guitarist Carrie Brownstein as they discuss their new comedy series IFC, "Portlandia".
Join actor Jason Statham ("Transporter") as he discusses his new action thriller, "The Mechanic."

Academy Award‒winner and 2010 Golden Globe nominee for his role in this film, Kevin Spacey discusses "Casino Jack," his film that lays bare the wild excesses and escapades of Republican lobbyist Jack Abramoff.
Join Oscar-winning actor/producer Nicole Kidman, actor Aaron Eckhart and filmmaker John Cameron Mitchell as they discuss their new drama “Rabbit Hole”, a vivid, hopeful, honest and unexpectedly witty portrait of a family searching for what remains possible in the most impossible of all situations – the unexpected death of a child. Davd Lindsey-Abaire adapts his 2007 Tony-award winning play of the same name, with Kidman and Eckhart portraying two people learning to re-engage with each other and a world that has been tilted off its axis.
Join Academy Award–winning writer and director Sofia Coppola as she discusses her new film, "Somewhere."
