is about a month away from hitting theaters, but it's already shaping up to be quite the cinematic experience, so why would we expect anything less from the first music video off the official soundtrack?

A teaser clip for Alicia Keys, Kendrick Lamar and Pharrell Williams' video hit the Web on Tuesday.

The 47-second teaser splices movie scenes with music video clips in a very organic way, starting with a shadowy figure walking through what we assume is an Oscorp lab. Pharrell makes a brief appearance, peering through a surveillance system, as film composer Hans Zimmer conducts his orchestra.

There is a brief Spidey cameo as well, but the teaser's true heroes are the musical ones as Kendrick Lamar and Alicia Keys look ready for action. Before the preview closes we see a punk-styled Keys sitting in a chair, lifting her head, ready to sing her song before the whole thing fades to black.

The song, which dropped online in March, starts off with a fearless verse from Kendrick, who took on a crop of rap gladiators last year with his verse on Big Sean's "Control." "And everybody knows the story of David and Goliath/ But this is bigger than triumph/ This is for the warrior/ This is for you and I," he snarls, before Keys brings some calm with her vocals.

If the champagne-spewing, cocaine-snorting excesses of "The Wolf of Wall Street" left a bad taste in your mouth, don't worry: the next Big Banking drama to come out of Hollywood is going to be a nice, populist palate-cleanser.

Per a report from Deadline, the non-fiction bestseller "Flash Boys" will be adapted for film. The project marks a second collaboration between author Michael Lewis and producer Scott Rudin; the pair worked together previously to bring "Moneyball," another finance-oriented drama based on Lewis's work, to the big screen.

Where "The Wolf of Wall Street" gazed in adoring awe at Jordan Belfort's haute-couture criminality, "Flash Boys" centers on a group of traders who would've liked to see Belfort in jail.

In a real-life drama that led to the founding of the IEX stock exchange, the men who became known as Flash Boys were Wall Street traders and hedge fund managers who became disgusted with what they saw as a rigged system designed exclusively to help the rich get richer.

Rather than play the game, they walked — taking with them the skills and experience to build their own better, fairer, more accessible exchange.

Much like "Moneyball," "Flash Boys" promises to be an exciting story in which a few wily outsiders flip the bird to some very powerful people. And with an ensemble of real-life heroes to cast, the producers will need to be picky about who they bring on board.

The most notable characters to be cast are the trio of men who set things in motion, first investigating trading practices and ultimately founding IEX.

There's a subtle art to winning the MTV Movie Awards' coveted Best Kiss prize. But there's an even subtler art to nailing your acceptance speech. We took a look back through all 22 previous winners, to rank the best and provide some tips to whomever will bring home the prize on Sunday (April 13) night:

22. Jennifer Lawrence & Bradley Cooper, "Silver Linings Playbook"
It's not that we don't love Bradley Cooper (we certainly do), but not only was J-Law a no-show, but he provided just an earnest thanks to the fans. Which we appreciate, but where's the action, Cooper? Where's the moves?

21. Tobey Maguire & Kirsten Dunst, "Spider-Man"
Another solo act, Dunst showed up alone because Maguire was off shooting "Spider-Man 2." No repeat of the first movie's iconic upside-down kiss was a missed opportunity.

20. Will Smith & Vivica A. Fox, "Independence Day"
Big Willie Styles also showed up sans smooching partner (noticing a pattern here?), quipping, "This is just the life!" on kissing co-star Vivica A. Fox. He's a notch above the others, but we wanted to see the Fresh Prince get a little more fresh.

19. Kristen Stewart & Robert Pattinson, "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn — Part 1"
Poor Kristen Stewart. She does her best accepting the fourth "Twilight Saga" Best Kiss Award on her own, calling for someone to kiss her before pretending to make out with herself. But not quite enough to get into our top ten.

18. Natasha Henstridge & Anthony Guidera, "Species"
"My Mom's gonna kill me, Anthony!" ...

Two days after her unexpected death at age 25, the questions surrounding the passing of British writer and TV host Peaches Geldof
 remain unanswered. Geldof, a mother of two young sons, was found unresponsive at a Wrotham, Kent residence in England on Monday and pronounced dead a short time later.

According to Billboard, the initial autopsy results in the Geldof case were inconclusive and toxicology tests are underway in an effort to find out what killed the daughter of rocker/philanthropist Bob Geldof.

The autopsy failed to reveal any cause of death in the case in which police don't suspect foul play and have deemed "non-suspicious but unexplained." Toxicology results will take several weeks.

"We are beyond pain," Bob Geldof said on Monday. "She was the wildest, funniest, cleverest, wittiest and the most bonkers of all of us.... What a beautiful child. How is this possible that we will not see her again? How is that bearable?"

"My beloved wife Peaches was adored by myself and her two sons," husband Thomas Cohen said in a statement. "I shall bring them up with their mother in their hearts everyday. We shall love her forever."

After leaving home at 16, Geldof worked as a model, wrote for Elle magazine, the Telegraph and the Guardian and appeared on TV shows including "OMG! with Peaches Geldof." According to Billboard, in 2009 she said her years of drug-taking were behind her. Her mother, model/writer/TV presenter Paula Yates, died of a drug overdose in September 2000 when Peaches was 11 years-old.

Early in March, Nicki Minaj's mother, Carol Maraj, teased a snippet of her contemporary gospel single and the full track has finally debuted.

The feel-good, EDM-influenced song finds Maraj singing about some difficult life experiences, and ultimately making it through to the other side with some help from the man above.

She opens the song by recounting a miraculous visit to her doctor and sharing something very personal. "With a strange look his face, the doctor studied me, looking at the x-rays I could see he wasn't sure," Maraj sings. "Got something to tell you, Mrs. C this is such a mystery, just can't find the cancer anymore." She also goes on to sing about a near miss in a drive-by shooting.

Carol Maraj is currently signed to Fame Star Records/MDM Music Group and it looks like she's running in sync with her daughter. On Tuesday Nicki dropped the scathing new single . Although their musical content isn't comparable, a passion for the arts clearly runs in this family.

"With my daughter's career thriving, I started spending more time writing about my life," Maraj said of her new single.

Future and Kanye West weren't the only winners on their brand-new collaboration, Producer Metro Boomin is also enjoying the result.

"We had a session with me, Future and [production duo] Rock City," the 20-year-old told MTV News on Tuesday (April 8) of the song's origin. "I loaded [the beat] up, and it was a certain part that we liked more, so we really just took the beat in a new direction. I started making the beat over a little bit while they were recording the song."

Soon, they had a second incarnation of the track, and the rapper asked Metro to turn it into something useable. "At the end of the night, we had a rough; we had a hook, the first verse, and some ad-libs," he continued. "Future told me to take it home and build a whole track out. So I went and built the track with the vocals, finished the beat, and placed everything and sent it back to him."

But that wasn't the end. "I got a call one day that they had sent it to Kanye," he said matter-of-factly. Next thing he knew, Yeezy was on the record.

As for whether or not the rap titan added his own twist to the beat — like he did on 2 Chainz's Sonny Digital-produced "Birthday Song" — Metro's creation was left unchanged. "He's done that in the past, and people probably think he did that this time, but nah, he didn't touch it," he said. "He just rapped."

This is just the latest in a recent string of memorable ...
