Entertainment Round-Up For Friday, July 30th

Posted by Bret on 07/30/10 at 06:19 PM Category: No Category

Movie News

James Gunn (Slither) brings us Rainn Wilson and Ellen Page in Super. Oh, hey, Nathan Fillion too?! And finally a shot of the costume.

Olivia Wilde talks about the incredible sets on Tron Legacy.

Chris Nolan’s Inception continues into its second weekend. It deserves every cent it makes.

Star Trek 2’s Chris Pine talks about his hopes for Kirk, while writers Orci & Kurtzman once again discuss the script.

Some new things about Green Lantern’s villain, as well as Io9’s list of ten things they learned about the film at SDCC.

Io9 also projects that Cowboys & Aliens will be the best thing next summer. Jon Favreau also talks about replacing RDJ with Daniel Craig.

Harry Potter’s new extended trailer reveals some final battle stuff.

A new Godzilla design?

SDCC gives us the movie Avengers Assembled, as well as peeks at Cap’s shield and some of Thor’s stuff. Also, learn a bit more about Cap’s villain, the Red Skull. And don’t forget about Clark Gregg’s Agent Coulson. If you haven’t seen the film Gregg made based on Chuck Palaniuk’s (Fight Club) novel Choke, you are missing out. Whedon also explained to MTV why he was excited for Renner and Ruffalo to be cast as Hawkeye and Banner, respectively. Lastly, will Eva Longoria play the Wasp?

Meanwhile, Chris Evans talks about the evolution of the Captain America suit, and gives us some plot details as well. Also, Edgar Wright explains why Antman will NOT be in the Avengers movie. Io9 was also able to interview Thor’s Chris Hemsworth. Lastly, see the Thor trailer that debuted at SDCC!

Scarlett Johansson will be reunited with Robert Downey Jr in the science fiction film Gravity.

Rumors of the Superman Reboot, while Brandon Routh expresses definite interest in returning. But could it actually be Jon Hamm?

Predators slipped quite a bit in the box office this weekend, but there’s still talk of Predators 2!

Robert Rodriguez’s next film seems to be Spy Kids 4 (what about Sin City 2, you jerk!), but he’s considering putting Deadpool on his plate.

Tony Scott in the running to direct Wolverine 2? Who is he up against, and why would they even consider another name?

Kate Beckinsale and Len Wiseman return for Underworld 4. Yes he wrote and produced the third one, but now he is directing!

Haven’t had enough set pics from the Chicago leg of Transformers 3 shooting? How about now? Still not? Maybe this will change your mind. A few more? Perhaps you should reconsider. Oh, and a new cardboard head reveals a return for a major villain. Spoiler? And your final Transformers 3 news this week is Rollbar, a new Autobot jeep.

Josh Hutcherson’s audition tape for Spiderman is getting a lot of notice, but one has to assume that Andrew Garfield blew them away even more since he got the part.

Haven’t had any casting news for X-men First Class in a while. Edi Gathegi (Twilight) has been cast as Darwin.

Rihanna, the singer, has been added to the cast of Battleship, the film based on the boardgame. I’m not sure what else they can do to make this film an even more surefire win. (100% sarcasm)

David Fincher (Fight Club, Se7en, Zodiac) discusses the possibility of directing 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea. Meanwhile, Disney executive Sean Bailey talks about his meetings with Fincher.

Green Hornet…2? Seriously?

Io9 reviews the new trailer for the direct-to-dvd sequel to 30 Days of Night.

And I leave you with some words from Zack Snyder on his new film, Sucker Punch, as well as Xerses, the prequel to 300.

Television News

Haven’t had quite enough of Lost? Well good, as there’s still 12 minutes left to see from the finale on the new dvd release of the final season. And it sounds like a DAMN good 12 minutes.

Is the Event the next Lost? No. Will it be entertaining? ...maybe!

A sneak peek of footage seen at San Diego Comic Con for Walking Dead. Emma Bell talks about her character in this series.

Is No Ordinary Family just too little too late for the television superhero genre? At least we don’t have to see Chiklis in spandex.

Some details to expect from the next season of Fringe. Executive Producer JH Wyman also talks about what’s to come. And some more.

Bill Adama is getting his own series of webisodes. Will it help out the issues some had with the finale of Battlestar Galactica?

And Supernatural adds a “bad” angel to the cast this season.
