The 11th annual “ Jimmy Kimmel Live: After The Oscars ” special aired last night after the Oscars. And we got a special treat last night.

According to Variety Fox’s “ 24: Legacy ” pilot has cast “ Sons of Anarchy ” alum Jimmy Smits in a lead role. Smits will play John Donovan, a powerful U.S. Senator with higher political aspirations, who is married to Rebecca ( Miranda Otto ), the blazing smart former head of CTU. Smits and Otto will star alongside “Straight Outta Compton’s” Corey Hawkins , who plays military hero Eric Carter, who returns to the U.S. and finds that trouble has followed him back — compelling him to ask CTU for help in saving his life, and stopping what potentially could be one of the largest-scale terror attacks on American soil. “The Flash” and “Masters of Sex” star Teddy Sears was recently cast as Keith Mullins, Rebecca’s ambitious former second-in-command who has now replaced her as head of CTU. Kiefer Sutherland’s “24” hero Jack Bauer will not be a part of the revival if it’s picked up to series; the actor is attached to ABC’s political thriller “Designated Survivor,” which landed a strai

Game on, man! With the Training Day TV version looking to switch the ethnicities of the two main roles, the team needed someone who could play a tough lead cop. They've now chosen Bill Paxton , who will be a morally questionable LAPD officer. Paxton is on to play Franke Rourke, a veteran cop heading up the Special Investigation Section that goes after the worst of the worst of the criminals in the City of Angels. He's more than willing to bend or even break the rules to take down the bad guys that the law seemingly can't touch. The new series, which is set 15 years after Antoine Fuqua's film, will look at LAPD policing the way it is now, as an idealistic young African-American officer joins the squad, but begins to have doubts over Rourke's methods. Though Fuqua had been in line to direct the pilot based on Will Beall's script, he's had to step aside due to scheduling issues, so Danny Cannon, a veteran of launching shows such as the CSI series, will t

Much like the film, Composer Theodore Shapiro's score fails to find its pulse. Review by Matt Cummings A seriously good soundtrack starts with a message, something that binds the music to the film. Think Star Wars . James Bond . Unfortunately, Zoolander No. 2 - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack is lacking that element, instead riding a wave of set up music and never quite reaching its potential. When world famous pop stars are murdered by a shadowy organization, Interpol Agent Valentina (Penelope Cruz) suspects that their final poses on Instagram look suspiciously like those of fashion icon Derek Zoolander (Ben Stiller). Unfortunately, he's been out of reach for over a decade, living in seclusion after losing the rights to his child and witnessing the death of his wife. His friend Hansel (Owen Wilson) has also been living away from the runway, now a part of a multi-marriage family in the desert. But when the two are offered a chance to return to the fashion l

Outside of great action sequences, the weak sequel fails to keep our attention. Review by Matt Cummings To say that 2000's Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is still a beloved film might be an understatement. The winner of four Oscars and nominated for six more, the film was a worldwide sensation, proving that Kung-Fu wasn't skin deep and that character dramas could exist quite well alongside insanely good action. But that was nearly two decades ago: Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword of Destiny barely warrants our attention, reminding us that sometimes follow-ups are hampered by the original, and other times betrayed by their own motives. Set 20 years after the death of Li Mu Bai, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword of Destiny , sees our heroine Yu Shu Lien (Michelle Yeoh) living a life of solitude. While travelling to the funeral of an old friend, her convoy is attacked by the powerful Hades Dai (Jason Scott Lee). With the help of an unknown ally (Donnie Y
