The news has certainly be stirring this week surrounding a proposed remake of "The Crow" by Relativity. Just a few days ago, it was announced that "28 Weeks Later" director Juan Carlos Fresnadillo would be directing the film, and now Hollywood Reporter says that Bradley Cooper is in talks to play the lead.

The original "The Crow" was made in 1993, with Brandon Lee, son of legendary martial arts master and actor Bruce Lee, in the lead role.

The "Men in Black" are back!

The Daily Mail has just released the first set photo from the third film in the "Men in Black" franchise, taken in the Bronx, NY.

The photo shows Will Smith reprising his role as Agent J and a very dapper John Brolin ("True Grit") playing a young Agent K.

Never fear, the original Agent K, Tommy Lee Jones, is still very much a part of the next installment, but "Men in Black III" will feature some element of time travel.

While you may know VUDU as that other on demand video service on your Blu-Ray player or PlayStation, that may all be about to change.

The WalMart-backed subscription-free, video-on-demand movie service announced today that it will make its massive library of content available directly on VUDU.com, where users can browse and instantly stream movies and tv shows, including new releases.

Reality competition shows may be tough now, but wait until you see what they look like in the future!

Funny or Die and Svedka Vodka sponsored the "Night of a Billion Reality Stars" last week (also called "Ultimate Reality"), hosted by Joan Rivers. The event was the opener for the "Reality Rocks" reality TV convention.

Well, Funny or Die and Svedka put a little extra something into the weekend, producing a series of comedy videos featuring appearances from a slew of reality stars.

When TV runs out of ideas for shows, it turns to the Internet. For proof, just reference the CBS sitcom "$#*! My Dad Says." If a sitcom starring William Shatner can be developed from a Twitter feed, then anything can happen.

The next Internet sensation to become a TV show looks like it might be "That's Not Okay," a Tumblr-type feed that can be seen at thatsnotokayny.

TruTV is about to get even more wacky reality programming. The network has not only renewed shows like "Hardcore Pawn," "Black Gold" and "Lizard Lick Towing," but it has also acquired reruns of ABC's obstacle-course competition show "Wipeout."

TruTV has also announced a number of projects in development, some of them in familiar territory and others fairly new in concept.

Those hoping to cash in on the finale of "The Oprah Winfrey Show" with a well-placed ad will have to already have some cash in their back pockets.

According to Hollywood Reporter, the cost of a 30-second spot during the May 25th finale of Oprah's daytime show is around $1 million. That's among the highest prices for a TV show ever, and most likely the single highest price for a daytime show.

Apparently the Style Network has been busy: the channel just announced three new reality shows to join their current roster.

For those who are fans of "Jerseylicious," a new spinoff has been picked up by Style. The show, titled "Glam Fairy," will center on makeup artist Alexa Prisco as she begins her own business. The show has a ten-episode order from the network.

First Cheryl Cole won't confirm her return to UK version of "The X Factor," now Simon Cowell too? The mogul and infamous workaholic reportedly told someone at ITV that he will not be able to join the judging panel for this season of the British hit series. Apparently even workaholics need a break. Currently Cowell is running both versions of "Factor," producing both versions of "Got Talent" and is also working on ITV's new game show "Red Or Black.
