Update: Despite choosing the magenta gown for her anniversary date night last year, she also kept one of the black gowns she tried on to ring in 2017. She celebrated New Year’s Eve with husband Kevin Jonas wearing the Pnina Tornai long black gown with cap sleeve and sweetheart neckline and thanked the designer for making her “feel like a princess.”

So inept a film, so bland and monotonous, that it fails even to serve as the blatant ad for the certain Christian motivational book it would appear to be. I’m “biast” (pro): nothing

True story: In 2005, recovering drug addict Ashley Smith was held hostage in her own Atlanta apartment for seven hours by Brian Nichols, who had earlier escaped from the courthouse where he was on trial for rape; in the course of his escape, he murdered several people, including the judge presiding in his case. Afterward, once Nichols had been recaptured, Smith’s story went viral because she said she’d read to her abductor from the Christian motivational book The Purpose Driven Life,...

David Oyelowo and Kate Mara bring substance to this true story of an addict who turns to God – but the film will win no converts
Heralded as the moment when faith-based film-making gets gritty, this adaptation of Ashley Smith’s nonfiction book Unlikely Angel is a rather unremarkable account of redemption through crisis. Kate Mara plays Smith, the struggling addict held hostage by David Oyelowo’s murderous escapee Brian Nichols, with only a copy of Rick Warren’s The Purpose Driven Life to give her strength. Committed performances from the two leads provide ballast, although the inevitable Oprah coda feels a little too much like a sales pitch.

Oyelowo follows his Selma star turn in Jerry Jameson’s sluggish drama about a man on the run who takes a meth addict hostage
Martin Luther King: tough act to follow. After David Oyelowo’s commanding Selma turn, here’s an unpersuasive attempt to bolster the actor’s multiplex profile: a threadbare based-on-true-events thriller that unpacks, in utterly functional manner, the mystery of Brian Nichols, an escaped convict driven to take recovering addict Kate Mara hostage. TV veteran Jerry Jameson’s sluggish direction becomes no more animated once the cops arrive; everyone’s left sitting around waiting for revelation or redemption, while the uninflected quotation of religiose self-help guru Rick Warren reaches out towards the lucrative faith-movie demographic. The actors are committed – Mara, generally waif-like, appears frail indeed – but there’s barely anything worth committing to.

On subject matter alone, Captive is a pretty ballsy film. It’s based on a notorious Atlanta incident from ten years ago that some will recall: Convicted rapist Brian Nichols shot up a courtroom and fled authorities, then held young, widowed, meth-addict single mother Ashley Smith captive in her home. But after a long night in which Smith read to Nichols from Rick Warren’s religious self-help book The Purpose-Driven Life and talked to him about God, the situation ended without further violence, and Nichols surrendered to the cops.So, here we have a kidnapping-thriller setup, but it really turns out to be a chamber piece focused on two people confined to a small home. What’s more, it de-escalates: It’s not about a situation growing more desperate, but rather about two people coming together on a question of religious faith — and not just any old religious faith, but an Evangelical,...

As bland as its title, Captive is an indifferent home invasion thriller in which a drug-addicted single mom is held hostage by a desperate man who’d just murdered four people. Hostage movies follow such age-old patterns that it’s rare to be surprised by one and Captive is no exception. Occasionally the genre will be transformed by brilliant filmmaking, as it was in something like The Desperate Hours or Dog Day Afternoon. Not this time. The true subject should have been given energy but all I felt while watching Captive was a big yawn.
Taking place over a single day, Captive closely follows an event that took place in Atlanta in 2005. Brian Nichols (played by David Oyelowo) was on trial for rape when he overpowered and beat a female guard, then took her gun. He calmly walked into a courtroom and fatally shot a judge and a court reporter...

A bruised, would-be thriller that’s really a oil-and-water mix of piety and paranoia, “Captive” tries to combine popcorn-crunching entertainment with higher values and holier virtues. Based on the book “An Unlikely Angel” by Ashley Smith, it’s a fictional version of the real events that occurred when Smith, a single mother and struggling addict, was held hostage in her home by escaped prisoner and multiple murderer Brian Nichols in Georgia in 2005. The film version features Kate Mara (“Fantastic Four,” “House of Cards”) as Smith, a single mom in crisis. We meet her at a 12-step meeting, she’s late for.

In March 2005, Ashley Smith was held hostage in her apartment by Brian Nichols, an escaped killer hell-bent on seeing his newborn son. As Nichols kept Smith captive for seven hours, the pair slowly came to a crossroads between hope and despair. Smith had bonded with Nichols by reading aloud Rick Warren’s best-selling book The Purpose Driven Life.
The new film, Captive, based on Smith’s account of the ordeal in her book Unlikely Angel, tells the story of how this one-time meth addict overcame her vices to survive through the worst night of her life and forge a new, productive path for herself. The film features standout performances from Kate Mara as Ashley Smith and David Oyelowo as Brian Nichols.
Oyelowo burst into the mainstream with his brilliant portrayal of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. in Selma (2014). He’s also showcased his considerable talent with turns in such films...

At the age of 24, David Oyelowo brought his regal bearing to the stage, where he became the first black actor to portray King Henry VI in The Royal Shakespeare Company’s 2001 productions of Shakespeare’s trilogy of plays about the king. More recently, he has made a name for himself by taking on American film roles. He played Martin Luther King Jr. in the Oscar-nominated film Selma, a civil rights activist in The Butler, a villain in Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes, and a member of the Tuskeegee Airmen in Red Tails.
In his most recent film Captive, Oyelowo shows his range by taking on another true life character. Brian Nichols is known for his escape and killing spree in the Atlanta, Georgia area in 2005.

David Oyelowo is a conflicted killer on the run from police in a new trailer for Captive.
Oyelowo's latest role in hostage drama Captive is a far cry from his inspirational portrayal of Dr Martin Luther King Jr in Selma.
The actor plays accused rapist Brian Nichols in a story based on real events documented in the non-fiction book An Unlikely Angel.
Nichols went on a killing spree while escaping a courthouse during his rape trial, and took a hostage in the form of a young single mother (Kate Mara).
Directed by Jerry Jameson, Captive documents a police manhunt for Nichols as his hostage simply tries to stay alive.
David's wife Jessica Oyelowo, Michael K Williams and Mimi Rogers also star in Captive, opening on September 18 in the Us. A UK release is yet to be set.

"I had to break out..." Paramount has debuted a trailer for the new film Captive, based on the true "Untold Story of the Atlanta Hostage Hero". Kate Mara plays a struggling single mother who's taken hostage when the "courthouse killer" from Atlanta finds his way into her apartment. David Oyelowo plays Brian Nichols. But the happy side of the story is that Ashley was able to talk her captor into "surrendering peacefully by gaining his confidence through her prayers and personal faith". Oh boy. Aside from that side of this story, this looks interesting. And I'll watch David Oyelowo in anything - he's such an immensely talented actor.

Check out the first trailer for the film.Captive finds Oyelowo as Brian Nichols, a man in jail awaiting trial. Desperate to make contact with his newborn son, he murders the judge assigned to his case, escapes and becomes the subject of a manhunt across Atlanta led by a driven detective (Michael K. Williams). Across town, there is Ashley Smith (Mara), a young woman struggling with her own issues. A recovering meth addict, she’s trying to punch the clock on a minimum wage job and painfully missing her daughter, who was taken from her by the state.

The rise of the award-winning David Oyelowo continues with the news that Paramount Pictures has snapped up the global distribution rights to the Selma star’s latest film, Captive. The story is based on the real events that are told in the book Unlikely Angel: The Untold Story of the Atlanta Hostage Hero, by Ashley Smith and Stacy Mattingley.
Kate Mara (House Of Cards) plays the lead role of Ashley Smith – a single mother struggling with drug addiction and a battle for custody of her daughter. Smith is thrust into the spotlight, however, when prison escapee Brian Nichols forces his way into her apartment and holds her captive for seven hours. Nichols had been awaiting trial for multiple counts of kidnapping, assault and rape of a former girlfriend, when he overpowered law enforcement officers in the courthouse and shot the judge – Rowland Barnes – and a court reporter named Julie Brandau.

David Oyelowo and Kate Mara have snagged lead roles in the upcoming real-life thriller Captive, which is currently set to be helmed by TV directing veteran Jerry Jameson (Murder, She Wrote).
In Captive, Oyelowo portrays Brian Nichols, who in 2005 escaped from a courthouse jail and went on a shooting spree, killing the judge assigned to oversee his case as well as a court reporter, a sheriff’s deputy and (later) an FBI officer. Fleeing law enforcement, Nichols forced his way into the home of single mother and meth addict Ashley Smith (Mara), holding her hostage at gunpoint. The film will begin production this month, with Leonor Valera and Mimi Rogers set to co-star.
Smith’s struggle to survive is entailed in her autobiography Unlikely Angel: The Untold Story of The Atlanta Hostage Hero, which the film’s screenplay was partially adapted from by writer Brian Bird (Touched by an Angel) and newcomer Reinhard Denke.

Hot off his eye-catching role opposite Forest Whitaker in the star-stuffed biopic Lee Daniels' The Butler, David Oyelowo has snagged the lead in another drama based on a shocking true story, though this one is admittedly less epic in scale. THR reports Oyelowo and Kate Mara have signed on to topline a thriller called Captive, which is based on a gruesome crime spree turned hostage situation that occurred in Atlanta, Georgia in the spring of 2005. At the time, thirty-three-year-old Brian Nichols was at the Fulton County courthouse awaiting trial for a rape case, when he broke free. In his bid for escape, Nichols murdered four people including the judge presiding over his case, a court reporter, a sheriff's deputy, and later a FBI agent. A massive manhunt was immediately put into effect for the metropolitan Atlanta area, with a reward of $65,000 offered for information that could lead to Nichols' capture.

Oyelowo is coming off a solid performance in Lee Daniels' The Butler with Christopher Nolan's Interstellar in his future while Kate Mara has "House of Cards" on her resumé and Wally Pfister's Transcendence lined up.
