Justin Timberlake eyed for Baywatch the Movie

Paramount Pictures is reportedly on the prowl for Justin Timberlake to run along the beach in slow-motion for their upcoming Baywatch film.

According to Twitch, Timberlake would play a disgraced ex-Olympic swimmer who joins up with the Baywatch crew -- and yes, the writers have already assured the fans that roles have been written for David Hasselhoff and Pamela Anderson, should they accept them.

The big screen adaptation has been in the works for a while now, with Ivan Reitman, Beau Flynn and Tripp Vinson on board to produce.

Charlie Sheen joins Machete Kills

It looks like Charlie Sheen will be following in his father's footsteps as the President of the United States. But instead of NBC's The West Wing, Sheen will be White Housing in Machete Kills.

Director Robert Rodriguez made the announcement yesterday via Twitter, where he wrote, "I just cast Charlie Sheen in #machetekills as the President of the United States! Who better? More soon..." Sheen then retweeted the message, and a rep for the actor confirmed the negotiations to The Hollywood Reporter.

As previously reported, the story follows Machete (Danny Trejo) as he is recruited by the U.S. government to take down a dangerous cartel leader and an arms dealer, who have a weapon in space.
Between Sheen and Mel Gibson, things are really starting to shape up for the grindhouse sequel, which is currently filming in Texas.

New writers hired for Jurassic Park IV

The screenwriting duo behind Rise of the Planet of the Apes have signed on to create the script for Jurassic Park IV.

Rick Jaffa and Amanda Silver will be penning the latest tale of prehistoric peril, suggesting that there have been a few shake ups since we last heard anything.

Spielberg previously announced that Mark Protosevich, who wrote the script for I Am Legend, would provide the screenplay for the title.  

It's not yet clear if this means the story he had in mind will change, though it's comforting to know that Jaffa and Silver have written about super-intelligent, human-hunting animals on their last job.

No release window has been revealed, but the original Jurassic Park is due to be re-released in the US after having the 3D treatment on July 19th 2013, with UK screenings to follow.

Hugh Laurie in talks for RoboCop

Hugh Laurie is done with House, but he's moving on to RoboCop!

The actor is in talks to play the villain in MGM and Sony's remake of the classic picture.

Jose Padilha (Elite Squad: The Enemy Within) is directing, with Joel Kinnaman (The Killing) taking the title role. Gary Oldman and Sam Jackson have also been previously cast.

Elysium Plot Revealed

Apart from the film's star-studded cast and a statement claiming it would feature Anglo-Hispanic racial tensions, not much has been said about Neill Blomkamp's next major feature project Elysium. Now, however, the District 9 director has provided an official plot synopsis describing his new sci-fi pic:

"In the year 2159 two classes of people exist: the very wealthy who live on a pristine man-made space station called Elysium, and the rest, who live on an overpopulated, ruined Earth. Secretary Rhodes (Jodie Foster), a hard line government official, will stop at nothing to enforce anti-immigration laws and preserve the luxurious lifestyle of the citizens of Elysium. That doesn't stop the people of Earth from trying to get in, by any means they can. When unlucky Max (Matt Damon) is backed into a corner, he agrees to take on a daunting mission that if successful will not only save his life, but could bring equality to these polarized worlds."

Twitch Film notes that Foster's Secretary Rhodes is an obvious reference to British colonialist, diamond miner and very clear racist Cecil Rhodes. Not unlike District 9, it sounds like Elysium will be further exploring allegories relating to apartheid, specifically a comparison between the treatment of blacks in South Africa to Hispanics in America.

In addition to Damon and Foster, Elysium stars Wagner Moura, Sharlto Copley, William Fichtner and Diego Luna.

Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bruce Willis have roles in The Expendables 2

Now this is what we're talking about. Sylvester Stallone, one of the biggest action stars in the history of, is bringing arguably the two other biggest action stars to The Expendables 2:Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bruce Willis. 

Deadline reports that the two icons "have just closed deals to take 'substantial' roles in The Expendables 2, alongside Sylvester Stallone." 


Of course, we saw both actors in the first film, but only in what amounted to disappointing cameos that were blown in the marketing for the picture anyway. But now it sounds like we're going to really get the trio in action together. Filming begins in October.
