Director Matt Reeves (pictured) might helm the rumored Cloverfield sequel, according to Variety, which is also reporting that Reeves will direct The Invisible Woman.

Timing of the projects will depend on how quickly Paramount can complete discussions with Reeves, producer J.J. Abrams and scribe Drew Goddard to scare up another monster tale for the Cloverfield sequel.

The Invisible Woman is a Hitchcock-style thriller that probes the mind of a former beauty queen who turns to a life of crime to protect her family. Reeves wrote the script and will produce with Abrams.

"Matt has created a truly original and compelling character and story," said GreeneStreet's John Penotti.

With a $25 million budget, a strong concept and cast of unknowns, Cloverfield scored a $46 million opening weekend, which was a record for a Martin Luther King Jr. holiday weekend.

Producer Frank Marshall has told Empire Magazine that Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is ready to roll into theaters.

Sorry, but we do still need to wait until May to see itt.

"This picture is locked," Marshall said the current progress. "Steven's pretty much done editing. And we're going into the phase with John Williams where he starts scoring the movie. He's really writing now and then we'll start scoring in February."

When asked where this movie sits tonally with the rest of the series, Marshall replied:

"I would say it's closest to the third one (Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade). It's all adults. I mean, you have the sidekick in Shia (LaBeouf), but you don't have a Short Round and I think the banter between the characters is as fun as it was in the third movie."

According to MTV Movies Blog, John Ortiz has signed on to appear in both Public Enemies - starring Johnny Depp and Christian Bale - and The Fast and the Furious 4, which will actually bring Vin Diesel and Paul Walker back to the franchise.

While the actor, appeared this past year in American Gangster didn't have a whole lot to say about The Fast and the Furious 4, he did reveal some tidbits about his character in Public Enemies.

"Public Enemies, is about the life of John Dillinger, and the gangsters of the 1930's," Ortiz said of the flick, which will also star La Vie en Rose Oscar-nominee Marion Cotillard. "It's totally old school. All of the gangster films that we see, and the stories, including American Gangster it started with those guys back in the 30's."

Ortiz will portray legendary gangster Frank "The Enforcer" Nitti in Public Enemies, a character previously played by the likes of Sylvester Stallone (Capone) and Stanley Tucci (Road To Perdition).

Filming on Public Enemies is slated to start shooting in March, while The Fast and the Furious 4 will go before the cameras later this year.

Kevin Nealon - the Saturday Night Live alum and star of Showtime's Weeds - is joining the cast of Fox's forthcoming adventure comedy They Came From Upstairs. It's headlines, of course, by Ashley Tisdale of High School Musical fame.

Nealon will portray the father of Tisdale's character in the film, which centers on a group of teens who join forces to defend their Maine vacation home from aliens that have invaded via the upstairs (naturall).

Actress Gillian Vigman, of MADtv and ABC's Sons & Daughters, will play the mom.

While Mathieu Amalric did not share his thoughts on the title of the next James Bond movie - Quantum of Solace? Really? - the actor did recently open up to IGN about the role he'll be playing in it...

Tell us a little bit about your character?
Mathieu Amalric: We've only just started shooting and at the moment I'm doing a lot of rehearsing for the stunts, which means there might be a fight. Sometimes the villain sends his bodyguard, but this time, there is a fight.

It's awkward because, what I like when I discover James Bond films is not to know anything, so it would be disgraceful for the public if I tell you who this guy is because it's part of the suspense.

Look for Mathieu Amalric in Quantum of Solace. 

Can you tell us what kind of villain he is?
Amalric: Well there are a lot of villains around today. We are all villains, no? When you see Casino Royale there's the fantasy of Bond, but it's also realistic â€" it could happen. It's not a villain on a secret island who wants to destroy the world - it's more complicated than that.

For example, what's happening in economics today - where are the villains? We don't even know. They are more like a gas - you don't know where it is. Before you had something to help you look like a villain - a jaw full of metal, an eye that bleeds - something, but I don't.

Here's a new poster for the movie Leatherheads, along with a summary of its plot:

The quick-witted romantic comedy is set against the backdrop of America's nascent pro-football league in 1925. George Clooney plays Dodge Connolly, a charming, brash football hero who is determined to guide his team from bar brawls to packed stadiums.

But after the players lose their sponsor and the entire league faces certain collapse, Dodge convinces a college football star to join his ragtag ranks. The captain hopes his latest move will help the struggling sport finally capture the country's attention.

Welcome to the team Carter Rutherford (John Krasinski), America's favorite son. A golden-boy war hero who single-handedly forced multiple German soldiers to surrender in WWI, Carter has dashing good looks and unparalleled speed on the field.

This new champ is almost too good to be true, and Lexie Littleton (Zellweger) aims to prove that's the case.

A cub journalist playing in the big leagues, Lexie is a spitfire newswoman who suspects there are holes in Carter's war story. But while she digs, the two teammates start to become serious off-field rivals for her fickle affections.

As the new game of pro-football becomes less like the freewheeling sport he knew and loved, Dodge must both fight to keep his guys together and to get the girl of his dreams...

Gerard Butler is bring his rock hard abs to a romantic comedy alongside Katherine Heigl.

The pair will star in The Ugly Truth, a film in which Butler will play the TV host of a chauvinistic segment called ''The Ugly Truth'' and Heigl will portray a romantically-challenged morning show producer who is reluctantly embroiled by Butler's character in a series of outrageous tests to prove his theories on relationships and help her find love.

The project brings together the team behind Legally Blonde: director Robert Luketic and writers Karen McCullah Lutz and Kirsten Smith. Shooting is scheduled to start in April.

Butler's recent credits include P.S. I Love You and 300. He next stars in Nim's Island, while Heigl just completed 27 Dresses.

Director J.J. Abrams has cast very young actor Jimmy Bennett as a young James Kirk in Star Trek, which opens in theaters on Christmas Day.

Bennett has appeared in such films as Hostage, The Amityville Horror, Firewall, Poseidon and Evan Almighty. The older Kirk is played by Chris Pine in the film.

The young, new crew venturing boldly where no man has gone before includes Zoe Saldana, Ben Cross, Bruce Greenwood, Simon Pegg, Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Winona Ryder, Zoë Saldana, Karl Urban, Anton Yelchin, Eric Bana, Leonard Nimoy and Marlene Forte.

American Pie star Jason Biggs is starring in the upcoming comedy Over Her Dead Body. The young actor recently talked about the role with Rotten Tomatoes.

What attracted you to the Over Her Dead Body script?
Jason Biggs: Well, for comedies, if you read a script and you laugh, it's funny. If you don't laugh, it's not funny. I laughed a lot and that's a good starting point. I thought for romantic comedies, there is a certain formula that you generally need to stick to and the best romantic comedies will play with that formula a little bit. They'll do their best to be original where they can be and play with things.

While this may be a recurring theme, I feel like Jeff [Lowell, writer/director] put a lot of original ideas and original comedy into it and it just stood out. Part of that is that he [Jeff] is just so smart and edgy.

The first scene is Eva [Longoria Parker] getting crushed by an ice angel and it's pretty morbid and dark. You could be like "Is this movie going to be too extreme, too edgy?" But he was able to keep the right amount of edge but keep it accessible, fun, and entertaining I thought.

The role was really interesting for me because it actually was one of the toughest roles that I've done because it was really layered. I'm playing a straight guy who's playing a gay guy because he's in love. I had to figure out what Dan's impression of homosexuality was or how he would want to perform it. It had to be credible.
