While Clint Eastwood was expected to follow directing J Edgar by directing A Star Is Born with Beyonce , her pregnancy has put that project off. Instead, I hear he’s seriously looking at starring in Trouble With The Curve , a project at Warner Bros that will mark the feature directorial debut of his Malpaso partner Robert Lorenz. The Randy Brown-scripted film is about an aging baseball scout, who’s losing his sight, and heads on a last road trip to Atlanta with his daughter to scout a hotshot prospect. They will lock Eastwood and Lorenz’s deals before setting an actress to play the daughter. Malpaso will produce. Aside from being Eastwood’s longtime business partner, Lorenz has been assistant director on many of Eastwood’s films, including Million Dollar Baby, Mystic River and Blood Work.

Oh, the places he'll go! It's almost too perfect: Johnny Depp as Dr. Seuss . Illumination Entertainment and Infinitum Nihil are developing a live-action movie about the life of classic children's author and illustrator Dr. Seuss (aka Theodor Geisel ). Depp will produce the project with the potential to star as Seuss, and Universal Pictures will distribute. Keith Bunin (In Treatment) has been hired to write the screenplay. With Depp already having brought to life the Mad Hatter, Peter Pan author J.M. Barrie and Willy Wonka , the iconic Seuss seems a great fit for his chameleonic personality and recent desire to make family films. While producers say that the film is unlikely to take the fantastical CGI-coated style of Alice in Wonderland, which grossed more than a billion dollars worldwide with Depp in the lead, they are not ruling out animated bells and whistles. As some of the most popular works of all time, Geisel's books have sold more than 200 million copie

One of the most anticipated films of next year Red Tails has flown in a new featurette giving us access to the actors and some behind-the-scene shots. Red Tails is an upcoming film directed by Anthony Hemingway , from a script by John Ridley and story by executive producer George Lucas . It is based on the Tuskegee Airmen, a group of African American combat pilots during World War II, and is the first Lucasfilm Ltd. production since Radioland Murders (1994) not to be associated with the Indiana Jones or Star Wars franchises. Red Tails Trailer- "1944. World War II rages and the fate of the free world hangs in the balance. Meanwhile the black pilots of the experimental Tuskegee training program are courageously waging two wars at once -- one against enemies overseas, and the other against discrimination within the military and back home. Racial prejudices have long held ace airman Martin "Easy" Julian (Nate Parker) and his black pilots back at base -- leaving the

The surprise hit of the the summer THE HELP will arrive on Blu-ray and DVD on  December 6,2011 . I'm sure this will be on a few people's Christmas list this year. Based on one of the most talked about books in years and a #1 New York Times best-selling phenomenon, “ The Help ” stars Emma Stone (“Easy A”) as Skeeter, Academy Award®–nominated Viola Davis (“Doubt”) as Aibileen and Octavia Spencer as Minny—three very different, extraordinary women in Mississippi during the 1960s, who build an unlikely friendship around a secret writing project that breaks societal rules and puts them all at risk. From their improbable alliance a remarkable sisterhood emerges, instilling all of them with the courage to transcend the lines that define them, and the realization that sometimes those lines are made to be crossed—even if it means bringing everyone in town face-to-face with the changing times.  Help Movie Review- THE HELP Comes Home For The Holidays on Blu-ray™ Combo Pack, D

Footloose Movie Review  By: Rama So did Rama put on his dancing shoes after he saw Footloose ? Read his review to find out. Make sure to follow him on Facebook and Twitter . It’s been years since the last time I watched the Kevin Bacon version, I remember I wasn’t too crazy about it but I also remember enough to be able to tell that FOOTLOOSE remake tries its best to stay as faithful as possible. So that is something to appreciate about this new take. The dances and some of the song selections are obviously updated. Despite its many flaws, for a remake, FOOTLOOSE is not as bad as I thought it was going to be. Humor is its biggest strength. If there’s an Oscar for best comic relief of the year, it would go to actor Miles Teller. I think today’s generation will dance to the beat and the spirit of this movie just fine.. In the remake of the 1984 film, Ren MacCormack (played by newcomer Kenny Wormald ) is transplanted from Boston to the small southern town of Bomont where he

The first trailer for The Raven has hit the net and we have it for you. The film stars John Cusack, Luke Evans, Alice Eve, Brendan Gleeson and Oliver Jackson-Cohen . Edgar Allan Poe ( John Cusack , Being John Malkovich) joins forces with a young Baltimore detective ( Luke Evans , Immortals) to hunt down a mad serial killer who’s using Poe’s own works as the basis in a string of brutal murders. Directed by James McTeigue (V for Vendetta, Ninja Assassin), the film also stars Alice Eve (Sex and the City 2), Brendan Gleeson (In Bruges) and Oliver Jackson-Cohen (Faster). When a mother and daughter are found brutally murdered in 19th century Baltimore, Detective Emmett Fields ( Luke Evans ) makes a startling discovery: the crime resembles a fictional murder described in gory detail in the local newspaper—part of a collection of stories penned by struggling writer and social pariah Edgar Allan Poe. But even as Poe is questioned by police, another grisly murder occurs, also inspired

Today we got our hands on the trailer for Young Adult.  Jason Reitman's Young Adult , a dramedy starring Oscar winner Charlize Theron that will hit theaters on Dec. 9. Like Reitman's three previous features -- the critical and commercial hits Thank You for Smoking (2005), which focused on the cigarette lobby; Juno (2007), which dealt with a teenage pregnancy; and Up in the Air (2009), which tackled unemployment -- this highly-anticipated fourth outing tackles difficult subject matter in an often funny way. Theron plays an alcoholic writer of young-adult novels who, on a whim, decides to return to the small town that she left behind years ago to aggressively pursue her ex-boyfriend from high school (Patrick Wilson) -- only, now he is happily married and the father of a young child, which certainly complicates matters, and leads her to another high school classmate (Patton Oswalt), and no shortage of trouble. We've never seen Theron in a role quite like this before, ju
