While prepping to play Selina Kyle in "The Dark Knight Rises," Hathaway is committed - not only has she switched up her lifestyle to accommodate the reality that she's got to fit into a catsuit, but she even considered getting a cat to examine, just for the role.

"I actually had this moment when I convinced one of the assistant directors on the London portion of the film to get a cat with me, the idea being that we were going to get a kitten from a rescue shelter, and he was going to live with me, and I was going to observe it, and when I left London I was going to give it to her," Hathaway recalled to Chelsea Handler in Interview magazine.

"Then, thankfully, her husband pointed out that that was a terrible idea on so many levels, not the least of which being that it would probably be really confusing to the cat."

HBO series “True Blood” has traditionally focused on vampires, but in the current season, witches are at the center of the supernatural drama. And according to Reuters, real-life witches are upset about the way their brethren are being portrayed on the show.

In the fourth season, Wiccan leader and medium Marnie Stonebrook (Fiona Shaw) allows herself to be possessed by vengeful, dead witch Antonia. This is a big no-no, say Wicca practitioners. Marnie is reckless with her powers, and makes witchcraft look “too easy,” they say.

Christopher Penczak, co-founder and president of New Hampshire’s Temple of Witchcraft, a religious nonprofit organization that teaches witchcraft worldwide, told Reuters he is worried about the damage Marnie's character could do to the reputation of witches everywhere.

On the heels of last week's announcement that a "Dirty Dancing" remake was in the works, buzz is generating about Jonah Hill's upcoming movie, "The Sitter," which many are calling a remake of another 1987 classic, "Adventures in Babysitting."

I'll forgive Roger Ebert for calling "Adventures in Babysitting" "Ferris Bueller's Sister's Night Off," and for giving it a thumbs-down (but Siskel gave it a thumbs-up!). It remains a favorite to this day.

In the film, high school senior Chris Parker (Elisabeth Shue) babysits Brad (Keith Coogan) and Sara Anderson (Maia Brewton), along with Brad's best friend, Darryl Coopersmith (Anthony Rapp). This all happens after Chris' dream date with Mike "SO COOL" Todwell (Bradley Whitford) is canceled.

David Cross, 47, and Amber Tamblyn, 28, are engaged to be married, the actress’ rep confirms to People.

Comedian Cross is best known for playing wacky Tobias Funke on Fox’s cult hit sitcom “Arrested Development,” which ran from 2003-2006. He currently stars in the comedy series “The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret.”

Tamblyn – whose father is "West Side Story" actor-dancer Russ Tamblyn – got her start on soap “General Hospital,” then starred in the CBS series “Joan of Arcadia.” The actress moved to the big screen with “The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants” movies, and recently returned to TV with a role on “House, M.D.”

In the midst of the tragedy of the suicide of  Russell Armstrong from "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," the show's return is now up in the air.

Bravo network executive and reunion show host Andy Cohen blogged on Wednesday that decisions are still being made regarding the reality show, which had highlighted marital problems between Armstrong and his wife Taylor.

"We're all still trying to process yesterday's very sad news, and looking at how to proceed with the series, which has finished primary production and was set to premiere on Labor Day," Cohen wrote. "We'll let you know what we decide when we do. In the meantime, we're sending our thoughts and prayers to Taylor and the rest of Russell's family."

Armstrong's mother told HLN's "Issues with Jane Velez-Mitchell" that prior to his suicide her son was fearful that the upcoming season of the show was set to "crucify" him.
