This Week... Not many actors are capable of playing both Jesus and the Green Goblin - but Willem Dafoe has done both, and faced an even greater challenge this week when he visited the Empire offices to answer your questions in preparation for today's release of his new film, The Hunter. We're happy to say that none of us were impaled by his Glider while he was here, but sorry to say that he didn't turn any water into wine either. Elsewhere on the site, we have begun mammoth preparations for The Dark Knight Rises, with features on Christopher Nolan's Bat-trilogy every day until release, and brought you a spoiler podcast for The Amazing Spider-Man, now in cinemas, to get a little deeper into discussion of the film now it's been released. And that's in addition to this week's podcast, featuring an interview with former Police Academy star and current God Bless America director Bobcat Goldthwaite. All of film life, in other words, is here. Helen O'Hara Deputy Editor, Empire

The Bourne Legacy Jeremy Renner leads our most action-packed issue ever!

Also in our new-look issue!: Lawless, Gangster Squad, The Untouchables, Prometheus, The Great Gatsby, Rachel Weisz and much more.

Jack Reacher Trailer Drives In It might have arrived sneakily and distinctly unofficially over the weekend (which does seem in keeping with the antihero's style, albeit he doesn't usually go for Russian dubbing), but now the first proper teaser trailer for Tom Cruise and Chris McQuarrie's Jack Reacher is online.

The Amazing Spider-Man cupcakes. They were... wait for it... astonishing. Wait! No! Terrific! No, that's not right either...

Ask if he's ever had a boy/girl dance-off at a wedding. Everyone's done one of those, right? Not so, Phil.

Edinburgh International Film Festival: Round-Up So the sun has now set on the 66th Edinburgh International Film festival - not that it ever really came out in between all the intermittent trouser-soaking downpours - and the general feeling is sadness that the party is over. Which, if you think about it, is actually a pretty good thing. For while it's impossible to tell if it was a success from a commercial point of view without knowledge of the box-office figures, this year's fortnight of films has been met by a largely positive response.

The Dark Knight Trilogy Celebration Counting down to the release of The Dark Knight Rises, we celebrate Nolan's epic trilogy. The coverage so far... Day 1: From The Archive: The Story Of Batman Begins Day 2: Anne Hathaway Q&A Day 3: The Dark Knight Location Travel Guide Day 4: How Christopher Nolan Rebuilt Batman Day 5: Sir Michael Caine Q&A Day 6: Gary Oldman Q&A The Empire Podcast #19 This 19th episode of the Empire Podcast sees the team discussing such important things as movie collectibles, stripping on film and how exactly continental drift works. As well as all that, there are reviews of Ice Age 4, Magic Mike, God Bless America and a hilarious interview with the one and only Bobcat Goldthwait. Enjoy! The Rise And Rise Of Andrew Garfield If you went to see The Amazing Spider-Man this week and came away a little bit in love with its star, you may be wondering what you've seen him in before and, more pertinently, what you should watch to see him in next. Here's a quick guide to how Andrew Garfield ended up in Spider-Man's jumpsuit, and what's next for the rising star... Jack Reacher: Trailer Breakdown Jack Reacher is the first cinema outing for Lee Child's iconic Jack Reacher, the hard-as-nails drifter who wanders America (and occasionally elsewhere) kicking ass and taking names to protect the innocent and generally do good. The books are a long-time favourite of the Empire office, each new instalment greeted with the sort of enthusiasm generally reserved for a junkie's latest hit, and we even had Lee Child come in and talk us through the franchise. But how will Christopher McQuarrie and Tom Cruise handle it on the big screen? Here's the first trailer to give us a taster - and Reacher expert Chris Hewitt to talk us through it... Willem Dafoe Webchat Transcript Having appeared in such a wide variety of films, from Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy to John Carter, Antichrist to Body Of Evidence, there were plenty of questions to be asked of Willem Dafoe when he came round for a webchat - and here's the transcript to prove it. So for titbits on his latest, The Hunter, as well as the most evasive answer to "What's your favourite sandwich?" ever, look no further...

The lovely folks at Virgin Media sent us a pizza to promote their Tivo service! Pizza and TV, mmmm.

14 sounds like "definitely fatal" and 24 like "easily fatal" in Cantonese. Hence both floors are often left out of skyscrapers. There was a rugby league player called Martin Offiah. His nickname is "Chariots". Jon Hamm took Sarah Clarke to prom. This means that Don Draper dated 24's Nina Myers. Ex-World's Strongest Man Geoff Capes breeds canaries. There's such a thing as a leap second.

The Amazing Spider-Man Graced with great performances from Garfield and Stone, The Amazing Spider-Man is a rare comic-book flick that is better at examining relationships than superheroism. If it doesn't approach the current benchmark of Avengers Assemble, it still delivers a different enough, enjoyable origin story to live comfortably alongside the Raimi era.

Ping Pong You're never too old for gold. The Women On The 6th Floor Upstairs downstairs. 7 Days In Havana Cuba-set portmanteau picture. Katy Perry: Part Of Me Get foamed in 3D.

21 Jump Street 21 Jump Street has that Anchorman experimental-chaos vibe, with all the hit-and-miss moments that implies. It's completely lunatic and sort of a mess. It's also the funniest high-school comedy to come out of Hollywood in ages. Also Out Barton Fink Welcome to the motel Calfornia. Airport Still putting the 'run!' into runway. Sea Of Love Pacino and Barkin whip up a storm . Project X You've got to fight for your right to avoid this. Margaret Anna Paquin gets even. This Means War Undercover lovers.
