Paris Jackson Lands First Movie Role!

WOW! I wonder would dad Michael Jackson be proud of her for accomplishing this? Or would he be furious his children are in the spotlight?

Paris Jackson, daughter of the late pop icon Michael Jackson. Paris, 13, will star in an upcoming live action-animated film called “Lundon’s Bridge and the Three Keys,” based on the young adult fantasy book series by Dennis H. Christen. The movie’s official website says Paris will play heroine Lundon O’Malley in the story where “sea magic turns a dolphin into a human, a teenage boy into a dragonfly and a loving jellyfish queen into an evil fairy godmother.” Paris’s castmates in the movie, for which a release date has not been set, will include Larry King and his wife, Shawn King, and Joey Fatone of the pop band N’Sync. “I Wanna Leave My Footprints On The Sands Of Time. When I Leave This World I’ll Leave No Regrets. I’ll Leave Something For Them Not To Forget,” Paris tweeted yesterday, after news of her acting debut was confirmed. Paris’s movie debut marks the latest step in her public transformation since the June 2009 death of her father at the age of 50.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Since the ever popular "Entourage" series wrapped on HBO, fans of the series have begged the Powers That Be to transform the show into a movie. And guess what? OUR PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED!!! *throws confetti*

It's no secret that the series finale of "Entourage" left A LOT to be desired! Many fans felt that they were left hanging in a way.

So Dancers, are excited about this news? You should be!

Movie News: Robert De Niro Will Play Bernie Madoff In New Film!

I likes....he even favors him a tad bit, eh?

Robert De Niro's production company Tribeca Productions and John Burnham Schwartz will take on highly the publicized scandal that rocked the nation: The Bernie Madoff debacle, in a new HBO film entitled, “Truth and Consequences: Inside the Life of the Madoff Family”. 

For those that have been living under a rock, Bernie Madoff rocked the nation for swindling people out of their investments to him and his company through ponzi schemes. He disgraced his family (one of his sons committed suicide last year) and is now serving a 150-year jail sentence leaving many of his clients penny-less.

Kim Kardashian Lands Role In Tyler Perry Movie!

"which b*tch you know made a million off a sex tape?"

Upon hearing the news that reality star Kim Kardashian has landed a role in Tyler Perry's latest movie, entitled "The Marriage Counselor", I already knew that this announcement would be met with cheers but mainly jeers!

Let's face it. Although Kim has acquired an enormous amount of success in the television, perfume, modeling - all around branding - world, there are quite a few people that can't stand her guts due to her "famous for being famous" platform. The question that I ask is.....WHY? She and her family have done a GREAT job of turning a horrible event (a sex tape that she made with her then BOYFRIEND "leaked" onto the internet - "leaked"? I even had to laugh) into something positive. She has acquired a huge fan base that allows her to be a "role model" to a lot of young girls. Listen. None of us are above public humiliation. It can happen to the best of us. She is only doing what LOTS of women would do (including myself! YEP....myself!) = turning a negative into a positive.

If she wants to star in a crappy Tyler Perry movie, by all means....MAKE THAT $$$$ Kim!

In what amounts to her most substantial acting role so far, Kim Kardashian has signed on to costar in The Marriage Counselor, the Lionsgate film Tyler Perry will next direct, based on his stage play. Shooting begins October 26 in Atlanta. The film tells the story of Judith, an Ivy League-educated relationship expert who makes her living dispensing marital advice, but is so bored with her own marriage that she breaks her professional code and cheats with a smooth talking client only to realize she has made a huge mistake. Jurnee Smollett plays the marriage counselor and Kardashian will play Ava, a co-worker who gives Judith a big city makeover and new confidence as she struggles with her personal issues. Kardashian previously played roles in the films Deep in the Valley and Disaster Movie.

PS - Oh, and don't think for a SECOND that Tyler Perry didn't know what he was doing in casting Kim! He knows that her in his movie brings along a whole new demographic (aka $$$$$$$$$$$$)! Smart move IMO.

Halle Berry Suffers Broken Foot On Location In Spain!

Whattamadda?!?!?!?

Halle Berry has suffered a broken foot while on break from filming scenes for her new movie “Cloud Atlas” in Spain the other day. 

Spotted boarding a private plane in Palma de Mallorca, Spain earlier today, the Oscar winner reportedly took a wrong step and heard a crack. Ewwwwww!

The studio released a statement to the press stating, "Halle Berry suffered a foot injury today while walking in Mallorca on a day off from filming Cloud Atlas. Production has adjusted their schedule and will continue filming." 

Another of Halle under the break...

'Entourage' Creator Vows That A Movie Will Be Made!!!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can you sense my excitement?

An Entourage movie seems even more inevitable now: The series finale on HBO Sunday featured an end-of-episode scene in which Jeremy Piven’s Ari Gold is offered the chance to assume the chairmanship of a major Hollywood studio. Will Ari renege on the deal he made with his wife to spend a year Italy and, instead, return to the fast line? That’s definitely a question that can be answered on the big screen, and the team behind the series indicated this summer that it’s their next priority. “We’re going to do a movie,” said creator Doug Ellin at the TV critics press tour. “We’re going to do it. It’s a question of when and how quick. We’ll sit down and come up with an idea.” Exec producer Mark Wahlberg was also bullish on the prospect: “Well, I said if I had to finance myself, I’d do it. I certainly hope it has a chance to become a feature film, everybody always says the episodes are too short. [Viewers] want to go on a journey. The Hangover to me is like Entourage.” Agreed Jeremy Piven: “I think [the final season] is a gratifying way to finish, yet I also feel we could transition into a movie.”

So Dancers, did you watch the season finale of Entourage last night? What are your thoughts? I agree with Jeremy Piven, they left us with just enough for a GREAT MOVIE!

Make it happen, Mark Wahlberg (with your fine azz!) and Doug Ellin.

Teyana Taylor Gets Into A Brawl With Male Movie Director

Director Jean-Claude La Marre is on the right

What in the world?!?!?

Via TMZ:

Rapper/actress Teyana Taylor claims she and a movie director got into an all out bloody brawl ... because he ignored her pleas to be taken home while she dealt with an abscessed tooth. Teyana and the director -- Jean-Claude La Marre -- were filming "Gang of Roses 2" last weekend outside L.A. ... when Teyana asked to be taken home because the pain was just too much to bear. According to 20-year-old Teyana, she asked multiple times to be taken home by car service -- and when La Marre continually refused to allow that ... she got in his face and started shouting. Teyana claims La Marre shouted back, "Don't f**king scream at me bitch" ... and pushed her in the face, hitting her aching tooth. La Marre claims he only defended himself ... AFTER Teyana "jumped on me and began swinging" -- but says he never hit her. Whoever started it .. we're told several crew members had to separate them. Teyana says during the scrap her shirt was torn open (above), she got popped in the nose and mouth -- and the blood ended up on her denim shorts. Teyana's people say they are considering legal action. La Marre says the only reason he didn't file charges is because "she's 20 years old and I'm 40 ... kids lash out." By the way, La Marre is finishing the movie -- a western also starring Amber Rose and Claudia Jordan -- but with a twist. He's killed off Teyana's character.

Simply put....REAL men don't hit women.

How Will Beyonce's Pregnancy Affect The "A Star Is Born" Remake???

Well according to Deadline, it looks like it will be delayed! Clint Eastwood must REALLY want her, eh?

I’ve learned that Warner Bros was hoping to start production on Clint Eastwood’s musical remake of A Star Is Born as early as February 2012. But now insiders tell me it “could push” because Beyoncé announced her pregnancy tonight at MTV’s VMAs. That will give the studio more time to settle on a male co-star for the singer/actress since Eastwood’s first choice, Leonardo DiCaprio, isn’t doing the pic. (Clint used his time with Leo on the studio’s J Edgar Hoover biopic to discuss A Star Is Born.) The project, which has been at WB for several years, has generated talk of pairing Beyoncé with Will Smith and with Christian Bale and with lots of other leading men. Beyoncé and Jay-Z wed in April 2008: he’s a good actor so I say give him the role. Clint is producing through Malpaso as well as helming the script by Will Fetters. Producers are Billy Gerber and Basil Iwanyk and Jon Peters (who made the infamous 1976 version with Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson). There have been a trio of A Star Is Born versions made since the 1930s. Or even  quartet if you consider What Price Hollywood (1932) made by George Cukor, which is often forgotten.

"Dirty Dancing" To Be Remade!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Dirty Dancing" is coming back to the big screen. Lionsgate says it is remaking the 1987 film that starred Jennifer Grey as a naive dance student and Patrick Swayze as her teacher and lover. The studio said Monday that Kenny Ortega, who choreographed the original film, will direct the remake. Ortega says he is eager to discover and cast "the next breakout triple-threats" to define dancing for a generation, the way Swayze did in the original "Dirty Dancing."

I, for one, am very excited about this news - "Dirty Dancing" is ICONIC!! Even though I'm not a huge fan of remakes, this can either go very well or very bad. 

But the real task is finding the RIGHT actor to play Patrick Swayze's character 'Johnny Castle'! That will determine the success of the remake.

RIP, Mr Swayze!

Chris Brown Lands Movie Role In "Act Like A Lady....."

The young kid has a lot to prove, I see. And it appears he is proving his nay-sayers wrong. I'm not mad.....

He’s definitely mastered the world of pop music and now Chris Brown is looking to expand his acting portfolio. The “No Air” singer has been cast in the new romantic comedy “Think Like A Man,” based on a book by Steve Harvey. Starring alongside Mr. Brown in the flick, set to be released in April of next year, will be Gabrielle Union. The rom-com genre may not be the most natural for Brown, as two years ago he verbally and physically assaulted his then-girlfriend Rihanna.

Zoe Kravitz Talks New "X-Men" Film To FOX 5 (VIDEO)

Such a purrrrdy gal, eh?

Budding actress Zoe Kravitz stopped by the FOX 5 studios in New York City earlier today to plug her new movie  “X-Men: First Class.”

In related news, it appears that Mizz Kravitz is hooking up with her X-Men co-star Michael Fassbender. And source reveals: "They're really low-key, but they have a great time together just talking music or movies. They really didn't want to be a topic of conversation during the press for X-Men. Zoe's really mature for her age in that she has very strong opinions and she is very confident in herself. Most people are shocked to learn she's so young; she doesn't really bring it up and age would never stop her from dating anybody." Have fun girl!

More flix + Zoe's interview under the break.....

Arnold Schwarzenegger Stops All Movie Projects!

Sounds about right!

Via People:

Amid the fallout of his split from wife Maria Shriver and the news that he fathered a child out of wedlock, Arnold Schwarzenegger has ceased all acting projects, including his anticipated return to the Terminator franchise. "At the request of Arnold Schwarzenegger we asked Creative Artists Agency to inform all his motion picture projects currently underway or being negotiated to stop planning until further notice," Patrick Knapp, entertainment counsel to Schwarzenegger and a partner at Bloom, Hergott, Diemer, Rosenthal, LaViolette, Feldman Schenkman & Goodman said Thursday. "Governor Schwarzenegger is focusing on personal matters and is not willing to commit to any production schedules or timelines," the statement from Knapp continues. "This includes Cry Macho, The Terminator franchise and other projects under consideration. We will resume discussions when Governor Schwarzenegger decides." As for how Schwarzenegger is doing in the wake of the scandal, a source close to him tells PEOPLE, "He feels very bad about the situation. [He is] fully prepared to do whatever he needs to do to rebuild [his family's] trust."

Arnold, Mel Gbson is on line 1!

Spotted: Jada Pinkett-Smith And Sister Souljah

*praying to the HIGH HEAVENS that this event leads to "The Coldest Winter Ever" movie*

Author Sister Souljah and actress Jada Pinkett-Smith attended the 16th Annual Los Angeles Times Festival of Books – Day 1 at USC this weekend in Los Angeles, California.

For quite some time, it has been rumored that Jada would play the lead character "Winter" in a movie based on Sister Souljah's controversial and ever popular book, "The Coldest Winter Ever". I'm just hoping that since they have been spotted together that this project comes to fruition. Jada may be a tad bit too old to play the character now, but maybe they are hashing out ideas about partnering together.

This story NEEDS to be told!

*Pretty PLEEEASE*

Lindsay Lohan Back On For "Gotti" Movie Role!!!

But not as Victoria Gotti this time. Lindsay Lohan will now play Kim Gotti, the wife of John Gotti Jr., in the flick.

Movie execs need to make up their minds and not speak so quickly next time!

Just a few hours after the producer of Gotti: Three Generations said that Lindsay Lohan was "no longer being considered" for a role in the film, he's changed his mind. "She was definitely out as of earlier today, but she really wanted the part," Marc Fiore says. In fact, you could say Lohan made Fiore an offer he couldn't refuse. "She not only is back in the movie, but she single-handedly put it all together," says the producer. "She called me personally and put her team on it and we came to an agreement." He added that Lohan, 24, was "no nonsense," when it came to making the deal happen. "She played a real leadership role."

I see Lindsay is hell-bent on getting her career back on track! It's good to hear that she is focused!
