As part of their big CinemaCon presentation last week, Disney talked up the latest Pixar film, Monsters University . 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 .

MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING will be a joint theatrical release by Lionsgate and Roadside Attractions; release date June 7, 2013. The Shakespeare classic comedy was adapted and directed with a contemporary spin by Joss Whedon (THE AVENGERS, last year's Lionsgate release THE CABIN IN THE WOODS) starring Amy Acker, Alexis Denisof, Nathan Fillion, Fran Kranz, Jillian Morgese, Sean Maher, Clark Gregg, and Reed Diamond . Kai Cole and Joss Whedon produced the film through Bellwether films, with Daniel Kaminsky serving as a co-producer. Shakespeare's classic comedy is given a contemporary spin in Joss Whedon's film, " Much Ado About Nothing ". Shot in just 12 days (and using the original text), the story of sparring lovers Beatrice and Benedick offers a dark, sexy and occasionally absurd view of the intricate game that is love. Writer, director, and producer Joss Whedon hits the big screen again with this inventive, modern-day version of one of William Shakespea

Fans are itching for Nathan Fillion to star in a live-action Marvel movie. In the past, he's worked with Joss Whedon (Firefly, Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog) and James Gunn (Slither, Super), who are both on the studio's payroll. Gunn is slated to direct Guardians of the Galaxy , so we're all wondering whether Fillion's on his cast list. At the moment, Fillion has his hands full with ABC's Castle . But when hiatus hits, would he be open to a Guardians appearance? The actor told MTV, "I'm very busy right now with a job that I'm grateful for. I've made a commitment [to Castle] and I have to see it through. And I'm really happy to." Fillion recently spoke to Gunn about his Marvel gig and claims to have the inside scoop. "We had dinner the other night and he told me all about it, before everyone found out," he said. "I was on the inside on that one. Over some toro, tuna belly, we discussed how excited he is, how nervous

Nathan Fillion and several members of the cast from ABC's Castle blew the roof off Comic-Con early Sunday afternoon. Following in line with last year's panel when the first scene of the Season 3 premiere was shown, a glimpse of the opening from the upcoming season was screened for the crowd. The big question that was left after the finale (and with Stana Katic notably absent from the panel) was: Is Kate Beckett actually dead? "I know, I know. It hurts right here," Fillion said of Beckett's unknown state, placing his hand near his heart. "It was very emotional the whole day," actress Tamala Jones said of Season 4's opening scene. "My friend is dying and I'm trying to help save her. ... The whole outcome is really going to be more epic than the season finale, I think." "Everyone had blood on their hands and we had to sit there ... I couldn't fix my hair," Fillion joked about filming that particular scene, with both

Browncoats rejoice: Firefly is returning to basic cable — and Nathan Fillion has something to say about it. The Science Channel has acquired the rights to the cult-hit and will air the series in its short-lived entirety, plus some new extras. Science Channel will wrap each episode with interstitial segments starring renowned physicist Dr. Michio Kaku, who will discuss the theoretical science behind the show’s sci-fi concepts. According to Firefly studio 20th Century Fox, this will mark the first time Firefly has aired on a fully distributed basic cable channel since 2008, when it ran on USA Network. In honor of this occasion, star Nathan Fillion took a brief break from shooting ABC’s Castle today to jump on the phone and answer five Firefly questions — including whether he’d ever reprise the role of Captain Mal again. That interview and more details about Science Channel’s Firefly plans below: What was the part about playing the character? NATHAN FILLION: It was my favor

He's enjoying mainstream success as the star of ABC's Castle , but Nathan Fillion is still a fanboy favorite — and a fanboy himself.

"I was always reading the comic books, I was always a spectator," Fillion says. "Now I feel like I own a little piece of Green Lantern ."

Edward Norton Address "The Hulk" Controversy And Not Reprising His Role What a few days it has been with the news breaking that Edward Norton would not be returning to reprise his role as The Hulk in the upcoming " Avengers " film. We got responses from the studio and from Norton's agent. But nothing from Norton until now. " The Incredible Hulk " star Edward Norton released a statement on his Facebook page about how he won't be involved with Marvel's upcoming "Avengers" movie. As most of you know, I don't like to talk much about the business of making movies because it means a lot to me to protect the audience's fullest enjoyment of the 'magic' that films can have. But I am so appreciative of the outpouring of support from fans of the Hulk and the Avengers that I feel it would be rude not to respond. So here goes: It seems it won't work out for me to continue playing Bruce Banner for Marvel in "The Aven

Nathan Fillion & Eva Longoria To Join Cast Of The Avengers? The rumor that Nathan Fillion and Eva Longoria have joined the cast of Joss Whedon’s The Avengers continues to pick up steam. Should the rumors be true, Fillion, a long time Whedon collaborator, would portray Dr. Henry Pym , aka Ant Man , and Longoria would play his wife, Janet Van Dyne , aka The Wasp . Supposedly the two of them would show up as S.H.I.E.L.D. scientists before revealing their true, super powered nature. Please Leave A Comment- Source- comicbookmovie
