Stars Confirm a Fifth Fast & Furious Movie

When a movie makes $72.5 million in one weekend, there's a good chance it will be followed by a sequel.

Or a fourth sequel, in the case of Fast & Furious.

Star Paul Walker confirmed to E! News that another installment in this franchise is definitely on the way.

"This was supposed to be it," Walker said. "There wasn't supposed to be the open-ended closing like there was. When I first read the screenplay, I was like, 'Man, look what they're doing.' But without question, with the way things opened up, Vin and I will be coming back, we're making a fifth one, and we're going to Brazil, that's it."

Spider-Man 4 Production, Shooting Update

Contrary to previous reports, it appears unlikely Spider-Man 4 and Spider-Man 5 will NOT be shot back-to-back. Franchise director Sam Raimi shot down the rumors in an interview with Ain't It Cool News this week.

"No one's talked to me about making part 5 at this moment. Right now I'm hoping to make part 4," he said.

Spider-Man 4 Promo

As for when Spider-Man 4 might start shooting, Raimi referred to it as "a never-ending process," adding:

"Basically we are talking about the story right now, shortly artists will come on and I'll start giving them shots to draw. We are supposed to start talking to a production designer soon, so it will just keep getting larger and larger."

Sony Pictures and Marvel recently announced a May 6, 2011 release date for Spider-Man 4. This would mean production would need to commence some time next year.

Steve Carell Dishes on Date Night

We can hardly believe it, but The Office really is set to collide with 30 Rock on the big screen.

Steve Carell and Tina Fey are set to co-star in the upcoming movie Date Night, a comedy based around a romantic evening gone horrible wrong. The actor spoke to USA Today about it this week.

"It goes crazy. Everything that can possibly go wrong goes wrong, and they're caught up in a web of malice and intrigue," Carell told the newspaper.

Very Funny

The film begins shooting in a few weeks, as it stars a comedy dream team that has never done a movie together. Carrell and Fey play a married couple that goes to a trendy Manhattan bistro for some couple bonding time, when things go horribly awry thanks to a case of mistaken identity.

"I'm a huge fan and have known her for some time, so it's great that we finally get to do something," Carell said.
