Jessica Alba “Machete” Poster
A new poster for Ethan Maniquis and Robert Rodriguez’s “Machete” is currently on display at the American Film Market (AFM), and it features a look at Jessica Alba as Sartana. Check it out below.
“Machete” is based on the “fake” trailer in Rodriguez’s 2007 Grindhouse. The highly skilled Federale Machete (Danny Trejo) is hired by some unsavory types to assassinate a senator. But just as he’s about to take the shot, he notices someone aiming at him and realizes he’s been set up. He barely survives the sniper’s bullet, and is soon out for revenge on his former employers, with the reluctant assistance of his old friend Cheech Marin, who has become a priest and taken a vow of nonviolence. If you hire him to take out the bad guys, make sure the bad guys aren’t you!

Mike Myers Revealed As MTV Movie Awards Host
Mike Myers will host the MTV Movie Awards on June 1.
The ‘Shrek’ star is looking forward to taking charge of the Los Angeles ceremony – which distributes awards including Best Screen Kiss and Best Villain – because he thinks it will be a fun event.
He said: “Hosting the MTV Movie Awards is like a party, but without having to do beer runs in your mom’s mini van. We do beer runs in Will Smith’s four-storey motor home.”
This will not be the first time the 45-year-old actor has hosted the awards.
In 1997, he presided over the ceremony where winners included Tom Cruise and Claire Danes.
Previous hosts of the awards include Will Smith, Lindsay Lohan, Jessica Alba and Sarah Jessica Parker.
Last year’s host, comedian Sarah Silverman, caused controversy when she made jokes about troubled 26-year-old singer Britney Spears.
She said: “Britney Spears is amazing. She is in her twenties and she has already accomplished everything she’s going to accomplish in her life. It’s mind blowing!
“And have you seen Britney’s kids? Oh my god, they are the most adorable mistakes you will ever see! They are as cute as the hairless vagina they came out of.”
Nominations for the awards, which will be held in Universal City, California, will be announced next month.

However, the Hollywood star added that the writers’ strike in the US meant that the movie was currently being put on hold and wouldn’t be released in the near future.
She told Coming Soon: “The writers’ strike and the impending actors strike’ has kind of put a wrench in everything production-wise.
“That film takes a lot of prep, a good six months of prep and about six months to shoot. With the strike, I think, maybe it’s put on hold.”
