After stealing every scene in " The Way Way Back ," Sam Rockwell is in early talks to star opposite Rosemarie DeWitt in MGM and Fox 2000's " Poltergeist " reboot, TheWrap has learned. Rockwell is currently weighing several movie offers and hasn't officially decided to take the part, though an individual familiar with the project tells TheWrap that Rockwell is now the filmmakers' top choice -- and that the actor is intrigued by the prospect of a lead role in a studio movie produced by horror maestro Sam Raimi. Rockwell's representatives did not respond to multiple requests for comment. MGM, which is co-financing, had no comment. Gil Kenan ("Monster House") is directing the "Poltergeist" remake from a script by David Lindsay-Abaire, who penned "Oz: The Great and Powerful" for Raimi. Should a deal work out, Rockwell would play the patriarch of the Bowen family -- they were the Freeling family in the original --

  Blue Jasmine Review By: MattInRC The Woody Allen drama Blue Jasmine wants to be something special, but we know better. Director Woody Allen is persona non grata in our home, having stolen the 1978 Oscar for Annie Hall from Star Wars: Episode IV . That was a dark day in movie history, even though we can thank Allen for introducing us to the modern comedy. But that was four decades and an odd marriage ago, and Allen seems more like someone who would rather surround his movies with a vast array of stars rather than just tell good stories. Blue Jasmine not only proves this status quo but that his seventy-something mentality went out of style years ago. The former socialite-turned-basketcase Jasmine ( Cate Blanchett , Elizabeth) is in serious trouble. Fresh off an FBI investigation over her philandering big-business husband Hal ( Alec Baldwin , The Hunt for Red October), Jasmine has relocated to San Francisco, where her sister Ginger ( Sally Hawkins , Layer Cake

Denzel does have a habit of delivering more than $20 million in box office receipts whenever one of his movies opens. The latest release, " 2 Guns ", is no exception, having logged $27.4 million this past weekend. That's certainly not as stellar as, say, " Safe House " ($40.2 million) or "T he Book of Eli " ($32.8 million) but it's better than " The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 " ($23.4 million). Even the Oscar-bait movie " Flight " has made money, and that's saying something for a movie where all the action comes in the first 15 minutes. In historical context, it's clear that " 2 Guns " didn’t, um, blow the box office away, but Washington still seems to be having a better summer than many. (Right, Ryan Reynolds ?) Sure, Johnny Depp's " Lone Ranger " brought in roughly the same amount in its opening weekend earlier this season — but that flick was a $250 million production. As opposed to, you know, &
