It was the film that teamed up Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito as unlikely twin brothers, and now Twins looks set for a sequel, this time with the manic energy of Eddie Murphy added into the mix.

Billy Nighy to star in Total Recall remake

Total Recall is, ignoring Arnie's awful-as-ever acting, a good watch. Now, it's being remade, and this time, Nighy's up to play Kuato (played by George Bell in the original), the leader of the Mars rebellion. With Total Recall, you're at something of an advantage.

At sixty, he's...

Another day, another remake... According to reports, the latest film from the archive to get a dusting off and make-over is Arnold Schwarzenegger's 1990 classic Total Recall.
