Jack Donaghy , a Bond Girl , a South African foreigner , a Pussycat Doll , and the reigning queen of internet meme all join the new Men in Black flick . Plus why Oz is the most Robert Downey , Jr. character ever . Spoiler alert !
Spider - Man Reboot :
Sony is offering no comment on whether the theme about Rhys Ifans playing the Lizard are reliable . If people want to make something of the fact that they only said no commentary , not straight - out denied it , go right onward , but I recall those are precisely the variety of opine games Sony wants in prevision of naming the case in a petty while . So I really would n’t read much into their no commentary either means , to be fair . [ Hitflix ]
Men in Black 3 :
Alec Baldwin , Gemma Arterton , and Sharlto Copley are reportedly all in negotiations to link up the casting . Alec Baldwin would playact the 1960s head of the Men in Black , and Arterton his secretary , while Copley will play “ a fast - talking Yoda type alien . ” It ’s unclear whether Copley would be a skillful guy wire , or the more humorous sidekick to Jemaine Clement ’s exotic villain . I ’ll acknowledge it – between this and the previous cast of Emma Thompson and Josh Brolin , this all sounds way more interesting than Men in Black 2 . [ /Film ]
Depending on your tolerance level for net memes , this will either be awesome news or just sorta irritating . Betty White — who , internet overexposure or not , is still a fabled comical actress and a welcome presence in pretty much anything — reportedly has a cameo playing one of the character ’s mothers . Also , Nicole Scherzinger of the Pussycat Dolls has reportedly been offered the role of Devil Girl , which I ’m judge is one of the nefarious underlings of Clement ’s Yaz . [ Bloody Disgusting ]
Avatar 2 :
James Cameron might take some sentence out before making the next Avatar movie to direct Angelina Jolie in a new Cleopatra movie . Knowing Cameron ’s workings process , that could push Avatar 2 back five or so years . Which is all well and good , but here ’s the unfeignedly important inquiry — what does this think for Steven Soderbergh’s“3 - D alive - activity rock ‘ n ’ roll melodic about Cleopatra”starring Hugh Jackman , Catherine Zeta - Jones , and the music of run by Voices ? Inquiring minds want to roll in the hay ! [ Deadline ]

sensible horizon :
There ’s another set report with a few more details on the movie . The Strause Brothers say the aliens are a scifi take on the Sirens of Greek mythology , and costar Brittney Daniel explains her character :
She ’s kind of like the ego - absorb , L.A. socialite miss , ” she said of her character reference . “ And through the movie she starts to have a comeuppance . She start out to recognise that the world does n’t revolve around her . She does n’t salve the sidereal day , but she definitely submit part … in help us get out when we postulate to get out [ of the building ] and kind of bang a little ass . ”

Oz the Great and herculean :
I did n’t guess this was possible , but this movie might just out - Downey the Iron Man films for double-dyed Robert - Downey - Jr.-ness . The picture show reportedly star the wizard – who will belike be play by Robert Downey Jr. , but it has n’t been confirmed yet – as a fast - talking huckster whose libido invariably gets him into bother , whether it ’s with tempestuous husband or jilted beldame . The patch has Oz falling in lovemaking with Glinda the Good Witch , which stimulate Theodora the Morally Ambiguous Witch , whose advances he scorn , to team up up with Evanora the Evil Witch to take him down .

Superior :
Mark Millar tell that he ’s close to completing a couple potential deals to accommodate Superior , his somewhat family - friendly tribute to gilt age superheroes . ( But take this with a grain of salt for now . ) Millar says the two different groups he peach to mentioned the same actor for the lead role : Jon Hamm . That does n’t mean much aside from the fact that multitude realize Jon Hamm would be big to wager a Superman eccentric , but the fact that Millar is already drop that in may suggest they ’re give-up the ghost to very actively pursue Hamm for the role . So , for those hoping to see Hamm execute the Man of Steel , this might be the project to view – I ’m guessing this is close as he ’s ever conk to get , unfortunately . [ Millar ’s creation ]
The Last Voyage of the Demeter :
This film , an adaptation of a plane section from Bram Stoker ’s Dracula in which the Count is transported to England on the ship the Demeter and the total crew mysteriously choke in the crossing ( hence the form of address ) , has reportedly added Ben Kingsley and Swedish Girl with the Dragon Tattoo star Noomi Rapace . Rapace , who is peradventure the slightly good index this motion-picture show could be worthwhile ( Kingsley appears in a ton of dreck ) , is reportedly bring a stowaway on the ship . [ The LA Times ]
Uncharted – Drake ’s Fortune :
Nathan Fillion has started a Twitter crusade to get the lead role of Nathan Drake in the television game adaption . For those keeping track , if Malcolm Reynolds was Fillion ’s Han Solo , then this is his Indiana Jones . Of of course , that makes Rick Castle Fillion ’s Rick Deckard – even their first names are the same ! – but only because I remember Castle would be a passel more entertaining if he spent his time killing replicants and hunting Rutger Hauer while being cryptically twit by Edward James Olmos . [ IGN ]
Godzilla :
There were report yesterday that Guillermo del Toro had been offer the director ’s chairperson for a Godzilla reboot , but he deny it in the firm potential terms – not only has no pass been made , he wo n’t even understand the script for such a film . [ Hitflix ]

We update our report on this yesterday , but just in case people do n’t read Morning Spoilers multiple times over the class of a day ( which you totally should , because you ’ll set out picking up on the pernicious metatextual layering I put into every post ) , the Bumblebee crash is not being written into the plastic film , and Bay is just go to use his spare Bumblebee car .

Fringe :
Here ’s a pair of consultation with John Noble and Blair Brown : [ SpoilerTV ]
Elsewhere , Noble had some musings on what Walter will do now that he owns Massive Dynamic :
“ He ’s had to reevaluate everything as he came out of that mist in his life . He has realized that the simplest thing , like the passion of a parent for a nestling , is far more important than anything else . I ’m not going to be the CEO of this business . He may conceive , ‘ I wonder what opportunity this leave me to do good science ? ’ At the end of the day , I suppose something like Massive Dynamic could make a lot less profit and do a lot better science – if Walter has his say . ”

No average Family :
Here ’s a synopsis and some photos for the November 9 episode node - starring Cybill Shepherd and Bruce McGill ( D - daytime from Animal House ! ) as Stephanie ’s parents : [ KSiteTV ]
When Stephanie ’s heavy - to - please parent , Barbara ( Cybill Shepherd ) and Allan Crane , pay an unexpected visit , the Powells must moderate the use of their powers for fearfulness of giving away their secret . But Barbara and Allan begin to suspect that something ’s haywire when they witness some unknown behaviour . Meanwhile , when friend Trent Stafford ( Jackson Rathbone , the “ Twilight ” motion-picture show ) and his parent are the victims of a home intrusion , Daphne uses her ability to help Jim endeavor to track down the thugs responsible for the violent number .
This is as much a mirror image of the general terribleness of this premiere season as anything else , but No average Family is pretty much ABC ’s only moderately successful newfangled show , and it looks like it ’s sticking around – ABC has ordered four more scripts of the show , which entail they will almost sure as shooting rank four more episode too . It ’s the only new show ABC has done this for , so I ’d give this show a decent luck of suffer an intact time of year to count on its problem out . [ KSiteTV ]
Supernatural :
Here ’s one more abstract peek for “ Weekend at Bobby ’s ” : [ SpoilerTV ]
And now a few photos for instalment 5 , “ experience Free or Twi Hard ” : [ SpoilerTV ]
Terra Nova :
This is quickly make ridiculous . Steven Spielberg ’s meter travel dinosaur show has n’t even start out bourgeon yet and the cowcatcher reportedly already costs $ 10 million . Once it in the end starts shoot , the net price for the episode could be $ 20 million , have it the most expensive pilot in TV history , beating out Lost ( $ 10 - 14 million ) and Boardwalk Empire ( $ 18 million ) . That ’s kind of a lot of money for a show starring the dude from the American Life on Mars and a British actress who ’s largely unknown in Britain , but we ’ll just have to expect and see , I gauge .
