Written and Directed by David Gordon Green, Starring Paul Rudd and Emile Hirsch An odd couple of sorts, meditative and stern Alvin and his girlfriend’s brother, Lance, dopey and insecure, leave the city behind to spend the summer in solitude repainting traffic lines down the center of a country highway ravaged by wildfire.

In what amounts to their first move since winning the Best Picture Oscar for " Argo ," George Clooney and Grant Heslov are planning to produce " Coronado High ," a feature film adaptation of Joshuah Bearman's upcoming article, which Sony Pictures is in talks to acquire and develop as a potential directing vehicle for Clooney. Bearman's article has not been published yet so details remain thin, but those familiar with the story say it involves a group of teenagers who are used to smuggle drugs in Coronado, which is an affluent resort city near San Diego, California. Clooney and Heslov will produce with David Klawans, who executive produced "Argo." He's also producing an adaptation of Bearman's 2010 Wired magazine article "Art of the Steal." Bearman is the award-winning journalist whose Wired magazine article served as the basis for "Argo," which Clooney and Heslov produced through their Smoke House banner along wi

Scarlett Johansson is in final negotiations to star in Besson's latest helming effort, the action-thriller Lucy . Universal has taken worldwide distribution rights with the exception of France, Benelux and China. Besson wrote the script for Lucy, which centers on a woman forced to become a drug mule.

At long last, 20th Century Fox has closed movie rights to Guys And Dolls , and the studio will soon start the process of developing a remake of the stage and movie classic for what Fox hopes will be a killer pairing of Channing Tatum and Joseph Gordon-Levitt in the roles made famous by Frank Sinatra and Marlon Brando. There is no writer or director yet, but those guys are interested. While we are all waiting for the eventual movie adaptation of stage hits like Wicked and The Book Of Mormon, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a musical adaptation get the kind of rise out of movie stars that Guys And Dolls has each time a movie deal was rumored. Years ago, it looked like Harvey Weinstein was getting the rights, with his Chicago exec producers Craig Zadan and Neil Meron producing the film. Thesps from Russell Crowe to Vin Diesel, Hugh Jackman and others all tossed their hats into the ring to play the leads. Trouble was, Jo Loesser, the widow of songwriter Frank Loesser, never found a deal to

Back when they were young, college-aged beasts, Mike Wazowski ( Billy Crystal ) and James P. “Sulley” Sullivan weren’t the good friends we know them as in Monsters, Inc . Nope: Mike was a small, nerdy, wannabe scare expert and Sulley (“Call me Jimmy”) was the oafish, exuberant, arrogant legacy student with a famous name and a laidback attitude to education. So what happened to make them bond? You’ll find out, as well as learning what happens when they both get kicked out of the scaring programme… Monsters University boasts an impressive voice cast surrounding the central pair, with Steve Buscemi and Frank Oz back as Randall and Fungus plus new recruits Aubrey Plaza, Nathan Fillion, John Krasinski, Charlie Day, Helen Mirren, Alfred Molina and Joel Murray .

Based on actual events it may be, but possibly the most intriguing thing about The Bling Ring is how Sofia Coppola will portray the central characters, a group of teenage girls in LA who decide that instead of simply mimicking the lifestyles of the rich and infamous, they’ll rip them off wholesale. Can they be turned into sympathetic film characters? Ripped from the crime blotter of the Los Angeles Times, The Bling Ring finds celebrity-obsessed Rebecca ( Katie Chang ), Nicki ( Emma Watson ), Chloe ( Claire Julien ), Sam ( Taissa Farmiga ) and others deciding that they want to steal from such pop culture icons as Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton, partly so they can feel the rush of crime and partly so they can get their claws on some swanky, expensive gear. The mini crimewave tore through the luxury communities between 2008 and 2009 until the authorities caught up with the gang, who, based on the evidence of this, seemed more concerned with whether they’d made a connection to the
