Just the other day we heard that Geoffrey Rush would be joining the cast of "Green Lantern" as the voice of a CGI character. Yesterday brought yet another story of a veteran actor voice casting as Leonard Nimoy has been confirmed for "Transformers: Dark of the Moon."
The "Star Trek" alum will voice Sentinel Prime, the predecessor of Optimus Prime.
There's a quote from "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End" where an onlooker watching Captain Jack Sparrow in action says, "It's as if he's just making it up as he goes."
Well, if you saw "POTC: AWE" you might have felt the same way about the writers. The story was such a muddled, complicated mess than it made little sense, if any.
If you saw Jason Statham roundhouse-kicking guys in the face on an oil slick with bicycle pedals on his feet in "The Transporter" and thought, "I wish I could see this every week," then it's your lucky day. "The Transporter" is being adapted into a TV series, and it now has a home.
The series will air on pay channel Cinemax, who has made a 12 episode order.
Just when I was starting to get tired of seeing Will Ferrell do the same thing in every movie (scream really loud, run around in his underwear), he starts doing some really great stuff. He's due to appear on "The Office" soon, and reports say that his performance is hilarious and understated.
Now, the trailer for "Everything Must Go" has hit the web.
"Everything Must Go" premiered at the Toronto Film Festival, and was met with a very positive reaction.
Was he stoned? Was he tired? Did he just not care? Ever since The Academy Awards aired, people have been asking questions about James Franco's low-energy performance as host and wondering what went wrong.
Franco finally has some answers for us, as he sat down for an interview with David Letterman. "Truthfully, I haven't watched it back," Franco said, according to a report by New York Magazine.
The video footage showcasing “Teen Mom” Jenelle Evans brutally beating another teen has reportedly sold for $45,000.
According to E! Online Evans claims the girl who started the fight is the one who sold the footage.
In the video, Brittany Maggard pushes Evans into a fight with Britany Truett. Evans says that Maggard sold for the video to the media.
"She told me herself, and I got very upset," Evans said of Maggard.
Talk about the ultimate man band.
In a move that's sure to cause some sort of cataclysmic schism in the universe, the Backstreet Boys and New Kids On The Block have released their first collaborative single called “Don’t Turn Out the Lights.”
How did such a near miraculous pairing of old school boy bands occur?
"We were all on tour, not together at the same time, but we were pretty close on the road," Backstreet Boy Brian Litrell told Entertainment Weekly.
Everybody had fun with Tara Reid a couple months ago when she mentioned in an interview that "The Big Lebowski 2" was going to start production this year, especially the Coen Bros.
Ethan Coen told Austin360.com at the time "I'm glad she's working on it," but said the writer/directors of the original didn't know anything about a sequel.
"Well, we don't but we'll watch it when it comes out," he said.
When we're not feverishly penning articles about breaking news in the entertainment world, we're digging into these great articles about the shows and films we love. Here's what we're reading today:
Ad Age - Why 'Mad Men' Needs to Embrace More Advertising, Not Shun It
As "Mad Men" creator Matthew Weiner negotiates with AMC regarding the upcoming season, the ad industry explains why a show about advertising needs more advertising.
Straight from one fantasyland and into another, Katy Perry’s new Kanye West-infused “E.T.” video shows intricate costumes and a surprise animal-ending.
The story in the video is like a "Twilight Zone" mashup with "Wall-E." A robot-alien is stuck in a pile of rubbish on a desolate earth. Katy and Kanye float around in their respective shots.
This is spliced with semi-creepy sci-fi like clips that symbolize procreation.
