Marlon Wayans News

You can bring Darren Aronofsy's compelling drug drama home in high definition this September.

What can you say about a "Wayans Brothers" film?? It was funny!! It was like a "In Living Color" reunion without Damon Wayans and Jim Carrey.

Directed by Damien Wayans. Written by Craig Wayans, Damien Wayans, Keenen Ivory Wayans, Marlon Wayans and Shawn Wayans.

Director Damien Wayans positively nails the unblinking earnestness and white-bread morality of the Hollywood dance movie in this witty send-up of cheesy sentiment.

SO I sat down to watch "Dance Flick" and learned it stars, and was directed by, a new generation of Wayanses -- cousins, including another Damon , a Damien and Craig .

The Wayans Brothers bust out all the expected moves and movies in their latest spoof, with attempts to deflate the racial posturing of their targets - distinguishable from the more juvenile mockery.

Marlon Wayans, who plays Ripcord in G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra , told reporters that he's playing a legitimate action hero this time around, no kidding.

Posted May 18th 2009 3:00PM by Wilson Morales Filed under: It's All Reel , Entertainment After appearing in numerous films with members of his family, Marlon Wayans is ready to contribute more to the game, as well as branch out on his own -- again.

Marlon Wayans came by to talk about starring in the new film, Dance Flick . Dance Flick follows the Wayans' trend of parody films, like the Scary Movie series, and pokes fun at movies like Save The Last Dance and Hairspray .

Not only does Marlon Wayans still exist, apparently he's also getting cast in things.

This is worrying, for two reasons: First, his surprisingly decent performance in Requiem for a Dream aside, Wayans is best known for really dumb comedy, whether as a supporting character in movies like Dungeons & Dragons or as a collaborator with his brothers on lowbrow fare like White Chicks and the first two Scary Movies .

Marlon Wayans may be back on track to restore honor to the family name. Yes, he's got Dance Flick coming out in May, but he'll also play a role in this summer's G.I. Joe , and has now signed on to star in and produce The Year of Living Biblically .

If you see one movie made in 2006 about a midget going undercover as a baby to steal a diamond from a woman's purse out of her house, make it Little Man.
