Exclusive: Drew Van Acker, Alicia Silverstone and Stephen Moyer have just wrapped production on Shtf (Sh*t Hits the Fan), a sci-fi thriller directed by Drew Mylrea from a script by Josh Janowicz. Shooting just finished in Butte, Mt.

The pic is set in the aftermath of an apocalyptic event that forces people into extreme isolation. A father (Moyer) and son (Van Acker), who have been living off grid for 20 years, encounter an outsider (Silverstone) who threatens to destroy the utopia they’ve built.

Sunil Perkash, Colin Bates, Akaash Yadav and Michael Jefferson are producing. Van Acker, Wes Hull and Daniel Brandt are executive producers.

For Pretty Little Liars alum Van Acker, the movie marks a reteam with Mylrea after the actor starred in the director’s Spy Intervention last year opposite Poppy Delevingne. He also plays Aqualad on DC Universe’s Titans and is repped by ICM Partners and Luber/Roklin.

"Henry, were you dreaming?" "Dreamt I was human..." Lionsgate has debuted a trailer for an indie sci-fi thriller titled Life Like, which heading straight-to-vod this May. No surprise once you see the trailer, this looks pretty awful. It's one of those sci-fi films that tries to play with a cool concept, but really turns out to be some mushy, cheesy waste of time. Addison Timlin and Drew Van Acker star as a couple who get a lifelike robot to help them with work. At first, android Henry is quiet and hard-working. But as his AI kicks in, he "starts to anticipate the couple's needs and desires, ones they themselves cannot fully understand." What will happen next? Of course, he's going to ruin everything and kill one of them. How else would this progress. Also starring Steven Strait, James D'Arcy, and Mark Famiglietti. This is one worth skipping. Here's the first...

Playing lovers in the upcoming drama romance movie "Remember Me," Robert Pattinson and Emilie de Ravin are reported embarking on a love relationship off screen.

"More than once, they left the others and retired to a private 'smoking room'," the source tells Radar Online. "There's real chemistry between the two - in front of the camera and off."

Rumored dating his co-stars isn't something new for Robert Pattinson. He's been believed dating his "Twilight" on-screen girlfriend Kristen Stewart. Some other female actresses who have been romantically linked to him include Natalie Portman, Camilla Belle, and Megan Fox.

Could romantic sparks fly between Remember Me co-stars Robert Pattinson and Emilie de Ravin off-camera as well as on-camera? If the Lost actress' previous actions are any indication, it just might happen. Radar Online reports that 28-year-old de Ravin, who recently announced that she's getting divorced from her actor husband Josh Janowicz, has been harboring a long-standing crush on her leading man. The reported infatuation began last November, when Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and assorted friends were making merry on the garden Patio at the Chateau Marmont. Also in attendance at the Chateau that evening: De Ravin, who made it quite clear to her.

Realizing that Robert Pattinson has lots of female fans, 19-year-old Kristen Stewart allegedly gets jealous with Emilie de Ravin, his co-star on upcoming drama movie "Remember Me". A source tells Star Magazine in its June 22 issue that Stewart really feels afraid of losing the 23-year-old hunk as he has flown to New York City with de Ravin to film the flick.

"Kristen's been calling him nonstop since he's been in New York and gets uneasy when he doesn't answer," the source confesses. "She's nervous he'll fall for Emilie. She thinks it's only a matter of time before he hooks up with another girl."

Moreover, the source says there is a possibility that de Ravin falls in love with Pattinson because she recently split from her husband of 3 years Josh Janowicz. "Rob could be Emile's rebound guy," the source continues telling Star Magazine. "He's her type, boyish, with chiseled features."
