Robert Downey Jr. signs up for more 'Avengers'It looks like Robert Downey Jr. will be rocking the Iron Man suit for at least two more films. The actor's signed a two-picture deal to reprise his role as Tony Stark for "The Avengers 2" and "The Avengers 3." The announcement was made on Marvel's website, clearing up the speculation that Downey wouldn't return because of contract issues. Miley Cyrus: Alcohol 'more dangerous' than weedMiley Cyrus has gone from tween dream to twerk queen, and in a forthcoming interview with Rolling Stone the singer/actress is still proving that she's no longer Hannah Montana. In the July 4 issue, the former Disney star weighs in on marijuana use, saying that "there are far more dangerous things" in the world - like liquor. 'Yeezus': The reviews are inThe wait is over and the reviews are in for Kanye West's album, "Yeezus." The 10-track offering is West's sixth studio album, following 2011's "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy," and quite possibly his most talked about project before its actual release. Now that "Yeezus" is officially available, critics, fans and other artists are sharing their thoughts about the rapper/producer, and his darkest album to date. 'Veronica Mars' movie starts productionFrom a Kickstarter campaign to reality, the production for the "Veronica Mars" movie is official underway. The announcement was made on the Facebook page for the film. "And... ACTION! The Veronica Mars movie has officially started production. LIKE this milestone to send your support to the cast and crew," read the caption underneath a photo of the clapboard. Speaking of the cast and crew, it appears as though more residents of Neptune will be joining their peers including, Tina Majorino (returning as Mac) and Krysten Ritter reprising her role as Gia Goodman. In a letter to the Kickstarter supporters, Ritter stressed her excitement for the reunion. "Veronica Mars has a special place in my heart because it was my first big acting job," she wrote. "It was also one of the most lovely on-set experiences you could ever ask for. This will truly be an awesome shoot, not only because we all get to be reunited (can’t WAIT!) but because of the revolutionary way this all was able to come to life!" How about you guys, excited about all the casting news? Trailer Park: 'The Wolf of Wall Street'The life and times of Jordan Belfort were so insane they had to be made into a book. And now, like any good book, there's the movie. An official trailer for the film, "The Wolf of Wall Street," starring Leonardo DiCaprio (playing Belfort), Jonah Hill and Matthew McConaughey, has hit the web. [youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iszwuX1AK6A&w=560&h=315%5D Directed by Martin Scorsese, "The Wolf of Wall Street," is based on the book of the same name by Belfort, a former New York stockbroker notorious for his outlandish spending and legal woes. The book is said to have inspired the flick, "Boiler Room." Over Kanye West's "Black Skinhead," from his latest release, "Yeezus," clips of raucous parties, yachts and beautiful women jump out during the two minute clip. If the imagery and slick trailer editing are any indication, the film version of "Wolf" looks equally as enthralling as it's literary predecessor. Think "The Great Gatsby" meets the aforementioned "Boiler Room" - minus Vin Diesel. "The Wolf of Wall Street" is slated to open November 15. |
