Birdman sweeps the top Academy Awards, stars attend the parties, then it's work as usual in New York, London and L.A. And first-glimpse trailers debut for Simon Pegg's action comedy Kill Me Three Times, Bradley Cooper's comedy-drama Aloha and Kristen Wiig's black comedy Welcome to Me...
Hollywood celebrated itself on Sunday night with the 87th Academy Awards, ignoring the critics' favourite Boyhood to present the best film, director and screenplay Oscars to the show business comedy Birdman. The lively presenters and winners were caught backstage by paparazzi in the press room.

There were also several new trailers this week, including a red-band teaser for Kill Me Three Times, an action comedy starring Simon Pegg as a hitman in Australia who gets entangled with a client, his unfaithful wife and a bag of cash. Also starring Luke Hemsworth, Sullivan Stapleton and Teresa Palmer, the film looks fast-paced and blackly hilarious. It opens in April. Watch 'Kill Me Three Times' Red Band Trailer.
The first trailer for Cameron Crowe's sharp-looking new comedy-drama Aloha came out this week. It stars Bradley Cooper as a guy who loses his girlfriend (Rachel McAdams) and his Air Force job for reasons he can't understand, then gets assigned to a new position in Hawaii training a sassy pilot (Emma Stone). The all-star cast includes Bill Murray, Danny McBride, John Krasinski and Alec Baldwin. The film opens in May. Watch 'Aloha' Teaser Trailer.
And we also had our first glimpse of Kristen Wiig's spiky comedy Welcome to Me, in which she plays a socially awkward woman who stubbornly decides to host her own TV show after she wins the lottery. Costars include James Marsden, Tim Robbins, Joan Cusack and Jennifer Jason Leigh. The film looks smart, strange and very funny. It also opens in May. Watch 'Welcome To Me' Trailer.
