Will Smith and Charlize Theron Sign on for Hancock Sequel

A sequel to last summer's Hancock has already been confirmed.

But MTV News now reports that the movie's two main stars, Will Smith and Charlize Thero,n are on board to reprise their roles from the 2008 blockbuster. Peter Berg will also return to direct the follow-up.

Immortal Gods

Hancock earned  $628 million worldwide last year. In a twist about halfway through the movie, it was revealed that Smith and Theron's characters are immortal gods that become vulnerable when near each other.

For the sequel, Berg is on record with a plan to feature at least one more all-powerful entity such as these two. Moreover,, he's got his eye on a well-known name to play a third superhero.

"We have [someone in mind]," Berg told MTV. "I'm not gonna tell you who, but we have!"

There's only one major movie we'd consider seeing this weekend. And we're not exactly rushing out to purchase tickets for it...

Sorority Row
Stars: Rumer Willis, Briana Evigan
Quick Synopsis: Someone is stalking girls in a sorority house.

Toy Story 3 Adds Voice of Timothy Dalton

Toy Story 3 will be released on June 18, 2010.

As you might expect, few movies are as eagerly anticipated as this Pixar flick, as fans are foaming at the mouth for any and all spoilers/plot details.

We can confirm that the storyline will center around Andy, as he leaves for college and and must decide which toys to take with him.

Those that are not chosen are “sent to a daycare center, where they are horribly abused by the little kids — and after that it’s time for a break-out attempt to find a safe haven, and hopefully a new owner, in a cruel world,” according to Empire magazine. “It looks every bit as good as its titanic predecessors.”

TS 3, Timothy Dalton

Meanwhile, Entertainment Weekly reports that Woody and Buzz are getting another new friend: Mr. Pricklepants, who will be voiced by Timothy Dalton, will be “a hedgehog toy with thespian tendencies.”

We can't wait.

Tabloids Claims to Spill Sex and the City Secrets

Earlier this week, we uncovered a handful of Sex and the City spoilers for the film's upcoming sequel.

Now, supermarket tabloid Us Weekly claims to expand on plot details from the May 28, 2010 movie.

In its latest cover story, the magazine says its obtained a casting notice that details the future of Carrie and Big, who got married to conclude the first Sex and the City movie.

"Big loses a lot of money and takes a job in London, living alone in a one-bedroom apartment. Big gets really low and ends up in bed with another woman. After she leaves him, Carrie discovers she is pregnant," reads the notice.

This is Us Weekly, of course, so consider the source before fully believing any story. This report does seem to confirm the secrets we spilled earlier in the week, though, as far as Carrie and Big facing an economic downturn.

A source on set adds that the follow-up film "won't be predictable."

Spencer was asked about training for that role by Radar Online this week. He responded by talking about "Wolf Camp," as director Chris Weitz has dubbed the regiment he put his pretend werewolves on:

"It was like a basic training. I had been going to the gym before I went up to Vancouver and just to keep in shape I go to the gym regularly but when we got there it was a whole different beast all together. They got us a trainer, and he had helped out the actors in 300 get in shape. It was really cool, me and the other guys, the wolf guys, we were pretty jacked that we were working out with the guy who was affiliated with 300.

"I think we were more excited about that than anything else. So what they did is he threw us into circuit training and muscle confusion workouts and we hit it pretty hard for about an hour and hour and a half.  First thing in the morning that’s what we’d do. And then we just eat all day. It’s pretty much four to six meals a day plus three to four protein shakes a day as well."

Nicolas Cage: Out of The Green Hornet

Perhaps we'll see The Green Hornet now.

According to Variety, Nicolas Cage is no longer attached to the role of the main villain in this upcoming comic book adaption.

No official word on the reason a deal fell through, but sources say the studio and the actor simply could not agree on terms; Columbia Pictures is now scrambling for a replacement.

The Green Hornet started shooting in Los Angeles this month; no scenes have been shot that contained Cage's character. Seth Rogen, Cameron Diaz and Jay Chou star in the movie, which comes out in December 2010.
