‘Bad Boys 3′ is Looking For a Writer, But Will Martin Lawrence and Will Smith Return?
Though it's been rumored for a while, Sony has made steps to get a 'Bad Boys 3' off the ground and is looking to hire a writer to pen a third entry in the franchise. That doesn't mean that Will Smith, Michael Bay or Martin Lawrence will return, but it's a start.
Tom Cruise to Return for ‘Jack Reacher 2′
One of 2012's most pleasant surprises was Christopher McQuarrie's 'Jack Reacher,' which starred Tom Cruise as the titular bad ass. As it was based on a series of books by Lee Child it seemed ready to spawn a franchise, but the film's modestly-hyped Christmas release suggested that Paramount didn't know if they had a winner. The film was a modest success, and now Paramount is working on developing
‘Batman Vs. Superman’ is Looking to Recruit Jason Momoa
We still don't have much of a read on 'Batman Vs. Superman' (or whatever they call it, it's currently listed as 'The Untitled Zack Snyder Super Hero Film') other than it seems to be a super-sized warm up for 'Justice League.' And with Jason Momoa is in talks to join the cast for an unknown role, perhaps it's actually the 'Justice League' movie after all.
‘Warcraft’ Blinks and Moves Away From ‘Star Wars: Episode 7′ as Universal Dates Future Titles
Duncan Jones' 'Warcraft' was originally scheduled for release on December 18, 2015, which it called before 'Star Wars: Episode 7' announced when it would be hitting theaters (many thought the new 'Star Wars' would go with mid-May as with all the previous films). But now that 'Episode 7' has picked the same weekend, 'Warcraft' blinked and has moved to March 11, 2016.
‘The Wolf of Wall Street’ Has a TV Spot, Could Run Three Hours
As we wait for Martin Scorsese's 'The Wolf of Wall Street,' which stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Jonah Hill and hits theaters in a month, there's still gossip about the movie and how long it will be, which comes on the heels of the film's first TV spot.
‘X-Men: Days of Future Past’ Asks if Michael Fassbender’s Magneto Killed JFK
This past week saw the fiftieth anniversary of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, an event that has left many still pondering what really happened at Dealey Plaza, and if Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. The latest conspiracy theory is completely fictional, but believable in its way: 'X-Men: Days of Future Past' character Magneto (Michael Fassbender) caused the bullets to behave as they
‘The Secret Life of Walter Mitty’ Latest Trailer Explores Ben Stiller’s Imagination
Ben Stiller's 'The Secret Life of Walter Mitty' has already screened for numerous critics, which shows that Fox and Stiller think (or thought) they have an Oscar picture on their hands. Which may be why they've released multiple trailers to get audiences familiar with Stiller's Mitty and his flights of fancy.
‘Vampire Academy’ Trailer: Finally an Intentionally Funny Young Adult Film
There have been a number of Young Adult adaptations made of late -- arguably too many -- that focus on the growing pains of becoming an adult while dealing with a dystopian future, or magic, or vampires and werewolves. But though these movies have had their jokes, none have been pitched as comedies, and that might be where 'Vampire Academy' succeeds.
‘Mad Max: Fury Road’ Finally Gets a Release Date
There's been a long wait for 'Mad Max: Fury Road.' The last 'Max' film came out in 1985, while rumors of a fourth film have been building since 2003, when director George Miller first announced he had a script and was ready to start pre-production. Shooting commenced in the summer of 2012, but in the interim there's only been one picture from the set and little else. But now, finally, the film has
Paramount May Stop ‘It’s a Wonderful Life 2′ From Ever Existing
Two days ago, it was announced that the revered holiday classic 'It's a Wonderful Life' was up to get a sequel called 'It's a Wonderful Life: The Rest of the Story.'

‘The Stand’ Has Lost its Third Director, Will We Ever See A Film Version?
Warner Brothers has been trying to adapt Stephen King's 'The Stand' for a while now. First they had 'Harry Potter''s David Yates on the project, then Ben Affleck was on for while before he got busy with other things (like playing Batman), so they brought in Scott Cooper, the writer/director of 'Crazy Heart' and 'Out of the Furnace.' But it's been revealed that Cooper's off the project, so now what
Tom Cruise May Bring Jack Nicholson Out of Retirement for ‘El Presidente’
Last we heard, three-time Oscar winner Jack Nicholson wasn't totally retired, but the 76-year old had become so choosy about his work that it's possible 2010's 'How Do You Know' could be his last feature film. Well, not if Tom Cruise has anything to say about it, as he's wooing Jack to star along with him in 'El Presidente' for his 'Edge of Tomorrow' director Doug Liman.
Paul Walker Says a ‘Fast and Furious 8′ is Guaranteed
Though we're still months away from the release of 'Fast and Furious 7' (which is scheduled to hit theaters July 11, 2014), series star Paul Walker has spoken about Universal's intentions for the franchise, and he seems convinced that there will be an eighth entry in the series.
‘Insidious 3′ Is Dated for April 2015
The new studio model for sequels is to call your release date before you have a cast or crew, and often before you have a script. The latest film to get dated ahead of anything else substantial is 'Insidious 3,' which production company FilmDistrict previously announced would be happening after 'Insidious Chapter 2' opened to $41 million.
Samuel L. Jackson Says ‘Star Wars: Episode 7′ Director J.J. Abrams Hasn’t Contacted Mark Hamill
'Star Wars: Episode 7' has been rumoring the return of original cast members since the project was announced, but as the film is taking a new direction now that J.J. Abrams and Lawrence Kasdan have taken over scripting duties, it's possible that the original cast may no longer have a role in the production. Former Jedi Samuel L. Jackson has spoken to Mark Hamill about returning as Luke Skywalker,
