There seems to be some confusion at the company making the “Serenity” action figures, because last time I checked Mal wasn’t a B cup.
You can see a better picture here.
Richards to appear in POTC2?
Will Keith Richards show up in the sequel to “Pirates of the Caribbean” or not? Depends on who you believe. Some sources say yes while others say no.
Also, Knightley talked to Coming Soon! about the sequel.
Is it July 2006 yet?
Indy 4 casting?
A press release says that model Laura Dutta has landed a role in the fourth Indiana Jones movie. Fan site The Indy Experience confirmed this with Dutton’s agency, but nothing (yet) from Lucasfilm.
Because someone had to comment….
The odd celebrity names movement has now extended to another casualty.
Welcome to the world Kal-El Coppola Cage.
Yes. You read it correctly. Kal-El. As in Superman?
Yeah.
Open Thread: Serenity
It’s out. Who’s been?

Punk Rock Potters
MTV interviews Harry and the Potters:
With song titles like “The Foil (Malfoy)” and “Voldemort Can’t Stop the Rock,” 18-year-old Joe and 26-year-old Paul have watched in stunned amazement as their “goofy” idea has turned into a full-fledged, touring band. Strumming their guitars and belting out lyrics like “Draco Malfoy, what’s your problem?/ All your friends think you’re rad/ ‘Cause you treat me so bad,” the DeGeorge brothers have combined broomsticks with Blink-182. And the outfits help too.
That’s it, CJrs: we totally have to revive The Dead Daalas.
It’s HP Trailer Time!
The trailer for “Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire” is now online!

“Pirates of the Caribbean” production stills
Great still photos from POTC 2 “Dead Man’s Chest” on this Russian site. One set features Will and Elizabeth and the other has many of Capt. Jack Sparrow.
But why is the rum gone indeed!

Movie news: It’s a bird…
20th Century Fox is #1 in the summer box office race, in no small part due to the success of Revenge of the Sith. Mr. & Mrs. Smith and Fantastic Four were their other big earners.
Pics from Bryan Singer’s Superman film. Mostly old stuff if you’ve been keeping up, but there’s a few I haven’t spotted before, most noteably Kevin Spacey as Lex Luther. Oh yes, and the film is supposedly going to cost $250 million. For some perspective, ROTS had a $113 million production budget, and Batman Begins was made for $150 million, at least according to Box Office Mojo.
Get ready for more superhero films – Marvel is dealing left and right with their properties. Having already cleared out most of the biggies, that means Captain America, the Avengers, Nick Fury, Black Panther, Ant-Man, Cloak & Dagger, Dr. Strange, Hawkeye, Power Pack and Shang-Chi are headed to the screen. If you’ve heard of more than half of these guys, I commend you. Sort of.
Harry Potter – erm, Daniel Radcliffe – as a young James Bond? Certainly I’m not the only person who remembers the short-lived 90’s cartoon about Bond’s ‘nephew,’ James Bond Jr., and is now having flashbacks?
Nevermind that Radcliffe has (hopefully) three more Potter movies to do… Speaking of, how’d you like to see some pictures from Goblet of Fire? I thought you would.
