Seth MacFarlane Fuels Family Guy Movie Rumors

During an interview with TV Week, Seth MacFarlane acknowledged the strong possibility of a Family Guy movie.

“We do want to do it and we will do it at some point. It’s just time," the show creator said. "We in the past 6 months started talking seriously about it. So my hope is that we’ll get going in the next year. Doing the show is a seven day a week process and finding the time to squeeze in a movie is… I don’t know how we’re gonna do it, but we’ll figure it out.”

As for the plot, MacFarlane said:

“I have an idea of what it’s gonna be. It’s definitely something that you could not do on the show, which to me is the only reason to do a movie.”

Sigourney Weaver Considers Aliens 5

in a recent interview with OK Magazine, Sigourney Weaver said she was interested in reprising her role as Ripley in the Aliens franchise, assuming the right people were involved.

“I would definitely do another if I had a director like Ridley Scott and we had a good idea. Ridley is enthusiastic about it,” Weaver said.

Scott is yet to show any interest in the project. He next directs Leonardo DiCaprio and Russell Crowe in Body of Lies, one of the films whose trailer is set to debut prior to The Dark Knight on July 18.

Zack and Miri Make a Porno: Destined for NC-17 Rating?

At a press conference for his latest comedy, Pineapple Express, Seth Rogen said his next film might be saddled with the dreaded NC-17 rating.

"I would say it's pretty dirty language-wise," said Rogen of Zack and Miri Make a Porno. "It does not seem that dirty to me. To me, it literally does not even register in my brain anymore."

Here's an example of what you can expect from the movie:

In the movie, two friends find their friendship tested when they decide to make an adult movie. Rogen thinks the sexual suggestions in the flick may freak out the ratings board, even though it appears to be fine with the violence of films such as Hostel.

"I don't know why. To me, it's a mystery that you can show these horrific things, but not some sexual stuff which everyone does," Rogen said.

Friends Movie Rumors Heat Up

Take this with a grain of salt the size of Joey Tribbiani's libido, but rumors of a movie based on the sitcom Friends are making their way around the Internet.

According to The Daily Mail, the cast of the series is set to hit the big screen, largely due to the success if the Sex and the City movie

An insider even told the British newspaper that the film might come together within the next 18 months. Reportedly, the hold up - until now - has been the supposed ego of Jennifer Aniston.

"As the biggest star of the Friends franchise, Jennifer can't help but look at what's happened with Sarah Jessica Parker and the Sex And The City film and be a little jealous," said the source. "What's held back a Friends movie so far is that people were worried that Jennifer had simply become too famous to play Rachel again."

If this is even the least bit valid, box office flops such as Derailed and Rumor Has It have likely silenced Aniston's view of herself as movie star by now.

Duran Duran to Sing Quantum of Solace Theme Song?

Duran Duran has told the UK's The Daily Mirror that the band would love to collaborate with producer Mark Ronson on the the latest James Bond theme.

The group previously recorded the title track for A View to a Kill in 1985, and Nick Rhodes told the newspaper he and his band mates would love to repeat the experience on Quantum of Solace.

"We'd love to collaborate with Mark on a single for the film" he Rhodes, adding: "With him, we may even be able to surpass A View to a Kill."

Amy Winehouse had been scheduled to record the theme, but she dropped out in May because, well, she's an insane drug addict.

Molly Ringwald Pushes for Sixteen Candles Sequel

We weren't shocked to hear talk of a Wanted sequel.

But Sixteen Candles 2?!? Can't say we saw that rumor coming.

Star Molly Ringwald is urging writer/director John Hughes to make a sequel of 1984 movie. Indeed, 24 years later, the actress is campaigning for a follow-up to that iconic film, years after Hughes shot the idea down.

"It was something that I definitely wanted to do, but John Hughes wasn't interested, and I didn't feel comfortable doing it without his involvement," Ringwald told AOL Television. "If we can get John to agree, I think it would be great. I think there are definitely a lot of people who would love to see it, and I would love to do it."

We don't actually remember the plot of Sixteen Candles, but Rungwald thinks it "lends itself to (a sequel). It was such a Cinderella story. And I was interested to see what happened to this girl."
