EXCLUSIVE VIDEO: Bradley Cooper Was 'Scared' to Take On 'Limitless'

What would you do if you could take a pill that could give your brain an unlimited ability to sponge-up information? Bradley Cooper does just that -- and experiences dangerous side effects -- in his new, paranoia-fueled action-thriller, 'Limitless.'

"I was definitely scared to play this role," admits the star. "The emotional roller coaster that [my character Eddie] goes on … to make these things real for myself as Eddie, is definitely something that's scary. And the idea of working with Robert De Niro is scary initially, and then he makes you feel completely at ease."

A Monday Tulsa World Sports photo caption incorrectly identified Union and Claremore wrestlers during a regional tournament match last week.

News: Second Poster Is 'Limitless' | Latino Review

The second poster for "Limitless" is here, and it's a little bit yawn-worthy but gets the point across. Neil Burger's new film shows what a world would be like if you can obtain the unachievable just by one little pill. It's not a hallucinatory one, but it'd be cool if there was a world that would have a smart pill (maybe it could defeat Watson).

After all this time, how is the iPhone 4 still the best device?

13186 views Taylor Martin - yesterday   |   More by this editor

Mid-afternoon yesterday, at the close of Mobile World Congress, several awards were announced. Of those awards, one of them sort of surprised me, as it did many others as well. At the Global Mobile Awards for 2011, Apple's iPhone 4 was dubbed “ Best Mobile Device ." The iPhone 4 originally launched on AT&T's network in late June of last year. Eight months after its release, it is still being named “best device” and taking home awards to a company that didn't even attend the event. So how is it that the iPhone still takes home the crown?

Student Films Break Tension

UCSB’s Recreational Sports Dept. recently released the first installment of the “Study Break” video series on gauchosplay.com, hoping to offer some comedic relief to a studious student body.

The short one to three minute clips, filmed and edited by fourth-year film & media studies majors Ryan Turner and Addison Smith, are comedic, athletic-minded skits unique to UCSB. The first clip, released Feb. 9 on YouTube, is an amateur’s guide to tortilla tossing.

I Am Number Four

on a _____” was a recurring concept in the early 1990s.

With the success of the Twilight series it was only a matter of time before Hollywood would attempt to branch out and tap into genres that would cater to similar audiences. And with the Bella-Edward-Jacob love triangle nearly complete, it looks like I Am Number Four will attempt to be the new Twilight , but with extraterrestrials, not sparkling vampires, or werewolves for that matter. Sadly, except for a few whiz-bang special effects, the material does little to separate itself from something you can see in the comfort of your own living room on ABC Family or The Disney Channel.

Mike Silva's New York Baseball Digest

The news that Donald Trump is interested in buying the Mets seemed to bring excitement to a great deal of the Mets fan base. This is probably because they see him as the no nonsense boss on his hit NBC reality show “The Apprentice.” Although Trump has been widely successful in business, he has a less than stellar resume when it comes to owning a sports franchise.

Sleepover Spectacular - Montclair, NJ Patch

As an adolescent girl sitting around my best friend’s basement, listening to Meatloaf and yakking about boys, I always wondered if they were talking about us somewhere too.

Being the mother of three sons (ages 11, 7, and 5) has provided me with a unique experience on “the other side.” However, I might have gotten my fill of fifth grade boys after hosting a sleepover birthday party recently for my oldest, Jacob.

Simona Rabinovitch: Liver Donation, Break up, Led Author David Jedeikin to Wander the Rainbow

When crisis hits, I'm a big fan of letting go of the familiar, jumping on a plane, and embracing the unknown. This self-discovery strategy is so effective it's become cliché, but hot damn, is it ever true! Time and again, I'm reminded that if we open ourselves to its limitless possibilities, the world has a way of conjuring up people, experiences and adventures that remind us of who we are. And, as a result, help us refine where we're going and what we're doing with our lives. But change can be scary, so I'm always turned on by those who give up what they know -- job, friends, perception of self -- to hit the road on a major solo jaunt. After donating part of his liver to his (now ex-) boyfriend, breaking up and feeling lost, David Jedeikin did just that, and wrote about it all in his book, Wander the Rainbow. We chatted. Here's what the San Francisco-based techie-turned-author had to say:

U-T podcast: Would you take a pill that gave you total recall?

If you could take a designer pill that gave you access to 100 percent access of your mind, would you take it? Don't blurt out an answer; the question is fraught with dicey social and political implications that form the core of the upcoming sci-fi movie, "Limitless," starring Bradley Cooper and Robert DeNiro. (It opens March 18.)

EXCLUSIVE: New ‘Limitless’ Photos Highlight Bradley Cooper’s Deadly Intelligence

If the mind is the scene of the crime in "Inception," the tagline takes on a whole new meaning in "Limitless."

The brain-bending thriller, which arrives in theaters on March 18, follows struggling novelist Eddie Morra (Bradley Cooper). When he comes into contact with a new experimental drug called NZT, his previously bleak future suddenly becomes much brighter: the drug allows him full access to all of his brainpower, leading to a much more successful existence than the one he's currently enjoying.
