Chris attended this past Saturday (March 19) the 33rd Annual Producers Guild Awards, and we’ve added a few photos from the red carpet and inside the event to our gallery!

Chris attended Wednesday (March 9) a special screening for his upcoming film All The Old Knives, in Los Angeles! We’ve updated our gallery with photos from the red carpet and after-party, and you can read an interview Chris gave to The Hollywood Reporter in which he speaks about the movie (but also about Star Trek 4).

According to star and executive producer Chris Pine, All the Old Knives is more than just another spy-thriller.

“Certainly it’s about a spy, but it’s really more about a man who’s madly in love with a woman who gets wrapped up in a shitty situation,” Pine said about the film. “Really, for me, the heart of it is this love story.”

On Wednesday evening, the cast and crew of Amazon Studios’ All the Old Knives gathered at The London West Hollywood hotel for a special screening of the film, followed by an afterparty. Pine and fellow star Thandiwe Newton took to the red carpet, along with director Janus Metz Pedersen and a guest list including Keegan-Michael Key, Vikings: Valhalla star Sam Corlett and Chilling Adventures of Sabrina actor Gavin Leatherwood.

The film is based on a novel of the same name by Olen Steinhauer, who also penned the screenplay in a team effort with the director and cast.

“We did a lot of work on the script in all the prep. We did a lot of polishing and rewriting, and I did a lot of readings with Chris and Thandiwe, in order to strengthen what was already there — a really good script that brought us all together,” Metz told THR. “Olen was part of that, too. We had a great collaboration.”

The film follows Henry [played by Pine] and Celia [Newton] as ex-lovers and spies who meet over dinner to reminisce about their time together. As the night goes on, both seek to get to the bottom of a disastrous hijacking years prior that continues to haunt the CIA.

The trailer for The Contractor, the upcoming film starring Chris Pine has been released! The film, to be released on April 1, tells the story of James Harper (played by Chris) who joins a paramilitary organization in order to support his family after being involuntarily discharged from the Marines. You can watch the trailer below.

It was announced yesterday that Chris Pine and his Star Trek co-stars Zachary Quinto, Zoe Saldana, Karl Urban, John Cho and Simon Pegg are currently in negotiations to return for the fourth film from the franchise. The announcement was made by director J.J. Abrams during the Paramount Investors Day Presentation. You can read the full article, posted by Variety, below.

They’re boldly going back.

Paramount is planning to enter negotiations for “Star Trek” stars Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Zoe Saldana, Karl Urban, John Cho and Simon Pegg to return to the Enterprise for their fourth tour of duty in the venerable sci-fi franchise.

The announcement was made by J.J. Abrams during the Paramount Investors Day Presentation on Feb. 15.

“We are thrilled to say that we are hard at work on a new ‘Star Trek’ film that will be shooting by the end of the year that will be featuring our original cast and some new characters that I think are going to be really fun and exciting and help take ‘Star Trek’ into areas that you’ve just never seen before,” Abrams said. “We’re thrilled about this film, we have a bunch of other stories that we’re talking about that we think will be really exciting, so can’t wait for you to see what we’re cooking up. But until then, live long and prosper.”

The six actors first stepped into their respective iconic roles as Kirk, Spock, Uhura, Bones, Sulu and Scotty in 2009’s “Star Trek,” directed by Abrams, which reset the “Trek” timeline and allowed for the reboot to exist unencumbered from the hundreds of hours of “Trek” continuity that had come before. The actors returned in two sequels, 2013’s “Star Trek Into Darkness,” also directed by Abrams, and 2016’s “Star Trek Beyond,” directed by Justin Lin.

Abrams is producing the new, as-yet-untitled film through Bad Robot, with Matt Shakman (“WandaVision”) directing from a screenplay by Josh Friedman (“Avatar 2”) and Cameron Squires (“WandaVision”) based on a earlier draft by Lindsey Beer (“Sierra Burgess Is a Loser”) and Geneva Robertson-Dworet (“Captain Marvel”).

Paramount was close to bringing back this cast once before: In 2018, S.J. Clarkson (“Jessica Jones”) had signed up to direct a sequel that would have reunited Pine’s Kirk with his late father, played by Chris Hemsworth reprising his performance from the 2009 “Star Trek.” That film never materialized, however, after Paramount reportedly couldn’t close a deal with Pine and Hemsworth.

As your post title suggests, today is Chris Pine’s birthday! To celebrate his 41st anniversary we’ve updated our gallery with some photoshoots from 2018 and 2019 that were missing from our gallery, plus some on set photos from Dungeons & Dragons. We wish Chris a happy birthday, and we’re looking forward to his upcoming projects!

Happy Birthday, Chris!

Hello Chris Pine fans! I’m Neide and i will be taking over The Chris Pine Network from now on. I am very thankful to my friend Mouza for allowing me to adopt this fansite, and am extremely excited to work on it. Things have been kind of slow with Chris lately, as he’s been filming All the Old Knives with Thandie Newton. However, i’ve found an article posted by Variety which speaks about one of Chris upcoming projects, Violence of Action!

“Violence of Action,” a crime thriller starring Chris Pine, has landed at STX Films.

The studio previously nabbed international rights to the movie and will now distribute in the U.S. as well.

Directed by Tarik Saleh, “Violence of Action” centers on James Harper (Pine), a man who joins a paramilitary organization to support his family after he gets involuntarily discharged from the Marines. He travels to Berlin with his team on a black ops mission to investigate a mysterious threat, but he suddenly finds himself alone and hunted across Europe. As he fights to stay alive long enough to get home, he seeks to uncover the true motives of those who betrayed him.

Adam Fogelson, chairman of STXfilms Motion Picture Group, called Pine’s performance “unforgettable.”

“We’re incredibly impressed by what we’ve seen so far of ‘Violence of Action,’” Fogelson said. “Chris gives the kind of unforgettable performance that will resonate with audiences everywhere. It’s an elevated action film that has real franchise potential and we are tremendously excited to be working with Chris, Tarik, and the teams at Thunder Road and 30West.”

JP Davis wrote the screenplay. The cast also includes Ben Foster, Gillian Jacobs, Eddie Marsan, Fares Fares, Nina Hoss and Amira Casar.

Thunder Road Film executives Basil Iwanyk and Erica Lee (“John Wick” franchise, “Greenland,” “Sicario”) served as producers on “Violence of Action,” which was fully financed by 30West.

Pine executive produced the film with Jonathan Fuhrman, Tom Lassally, and Josh Bratman. 30West’s Dan Friedkin, Micah Green, and Dan Steinman, as well as Esther Hornstein of Thunder Road Films, also served as executive producers. CAA Media Finance and 30West co-repped the U.S. rights.
