1) THR reports that Zachary Levi has been cast as Shazam in DC’s comic book adaptation of the title that is being helmed by Lights Out and Annabelle Creation’s David F. Sandberg. Other actors that were considered for the role in the last few months included John Cena, who met with the director, and more recently Derek Theler, Zane Holtz, Billy Magnussen and Jake McDorman. No release date for Shazam! has been set but New Line is eyeing a February start of production in Toronto.

According to a report from The Wrap, after parting ways with The Weinstein Company, Quentin Tarantino is shopping his film about Charles Manson to some major studios and forcing executives to go through a very complicated process in order to bid for the new film. The companies include Warner Bros., Universal Pictures and Paramount and Tarantino is having each executive drive over to his agents at WME to read the script, after which his agents present deal points that will allow the studios to bid for the theatrical rights.

BOX OFFICE REPORT

BUY OR SELL

According to Deadline, Mel Gibson, Danny Glover and Richard Donner are all meeting with Warner Bros to discuss the possibility of doing another film in the Lethal Weapon franchise. The trade reports that Donner would direct with Channing Gibson, writer of Lethal Weapon 4, penning the script.

Sony Pictures has released a new behind the scenes featurette for Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle. In the new movie, four teenagers are sucked into Jumanji’s world – pitting them all against rhinos, black mambas and an endless variety of jungle traps and puzzles. Bad Teacher and Sex Tape helmer Jake Kasdan directs the movie that stars Dwayne Johnson, Kevin Hart, Karen Gillan and Jack Black. It debuts in theatres on December 20th, later this year.

  1. People care more about a famous person's life more than their own. I don't give a shit if a celebrity cheated on his wife or dropped the N word. They aren't talking to me I don't fucking know them. Kevin Hart is still Funny AF and Mel Gibson is still the same actor that was in braveheart and the director of Apocalypto. If the weren't famous you wouldn't even know or give a fuck. Do you ask for the backstory of the people that built your car? Or the Worker at burger king when you order? NO! Get over yourselves.

  2. DC made $3.9 Billion in its first 4 movies.
    Marvel only made $2.9 Billion for their first 4 movies.

    yeah can't wait to see how much DC has made by their 17th movie.

    and no i don't give a shit if you try to compare how much the movies made in their given years vs other movies. or that guardians made X amount vs how much a DC movie made, also don't give a F about Marvels Total $ to date. its First 4 vs First 4. and DC wins hands down. 

    reason i don't give any Fucks about marvel numbers outside of the first 4 movies vs DC. is because I'm a Fan of both marvel and DC therefore i don't need you fuck boys trying to convince me that I'm wrong.

  3. i think cosby began the flood or the cracking of the dam at least. did spacey touch anthony? did someone ask him to call him out?
    or would the person in question want it to go away? he didn´t name someone did he? i hope not.

    everything fun is fun, who is against fun!? fun is great to hang with. try it, it´s fun… i love fun.

    best wishes to Zachary Levi.

    why not have all jamie lee curtis halloweens be true, she moves back home after she thinks that michael is dead. her son calls and asks if she
    wants him to come home for halloween, she say´s no and ends up dying. then in the next movie her son is after michael to avenge jamie but ends up
    getting the darkness that has infested michael transferred to him thereby becoming the new "shape". if there´s anything to transferre. then jamie comes
    back to life in order to save her son.

    they don´t have to be retiered, murtaugh could be boss level rank cop and riggs, beat/desk cop or security guard perhaps. something could get stolen,
    sex slave trade. or a mexican fishing vacation gone wry, murtaugh wanted to go. mexican cartells, i´m way to old for this sh#¤%. there you go.

    from dusk till shaun would be great :). vampires would be sweet.

    love the shows.

  4. I'm sorry, why should Kevin Spacey apologize? For that matter, I thought this show was called movie talk, not movie gossip. This channel is really turning into shit and I think you guys need to keep some of your opinions to yourself about certain matters that 1. you don't know the whole story about and 2. no charges have been brought against anybody, so stick to movie news, not movie gossip. It makes you guys look like hacks, which I know you're not.

  5. Zachary Levi said he will be in the gym for the rest of his life. I think it's safe to say he will actually be Shazam and not kid Billy Batson. He wouldn't have to pack on the pounds if he was

  6. Inspired casting. Hope they are going for a "Big" (Tom Hanks) meets "Superman" kind of thing. Billy Batson needs to be a really young kid, because if superhero stories are power fantasies, this is the purest one of them all.

  7. My problem is that Zach won’t be the size of the rock. If they gonna shot in February that’s 4 months away. I might look weird. Also he is a tv actor, which won’t bring the casual fan in the theaters

  8. Dear john just looking the part doesnt mean the movie will be good.So you telling john cena would have been good for shazam just bcoz he looks like him it's same as telling george reeves is not a good superman cause for a superman george is too skinny and same goes to wolverine, for their comic counter part they surely dont look same at all. But hey they embrace the character and look they are both iconic retiree now

  9. I won't see Lethal Weapon 5 not because of Mel Gibson and his past. But because of Danny Glover and his Hugo Chavez, Fidel Castro loving idiocy. And I loved the first Lethal Weapon movie. The other 3 were meh.
