| 'The Big Bang Theory' Prequel Is Now Casting for Young Sheldon Posted:
Yes, according to TVLine, CBS has "quietly" begun casting the title role of "The Big Bang Theory" prequel called "Sheldon." The site reports producers Chuck Lorre, Steve Molaro, and Jim Parsons (who plays CBS's adult Sheldon) are "scouring the planet" for just the right actor. The Hollywood Reporter previously revealed, via sources, that the prequel was being modeled on another coming-of-age sitcom, "Malcolm in the Middle." In the meantime, TVLine also shared scoop on the currently airing "Big Bang" featuring Parson's Sheldon. Here's the latest from the site:

| The Original Ending of 'Rogue One' Might Surprise You Posted:
No matter what, "Rogue One: A Star Wars Story" was destined to be bittersweet, but an early version was much heavier on the sweet. In this standalone film -- which leads straight into Episode IV -- Jyn Erso (Felicity Jones) and a group of rebels steal the plans for the Death Star. Director Gareth Edwards revealed that the initial plan was for Jyn and company to make it out alive. Here's what Edwards told Empire podcast (via The Hollywood Reporter):
Good for Disney. For obvious reasons, Disney is not big on killing off leads, but the spoiler to this story already happened in the very first "Star Wars" movie back in 1977. Fans had already been told how much rebels sacrificed for this cause, and it wouldn't make sense -- or have as much emotional impact -- if the entire core cast survived. Critics and fans have been mostly positive about the finished product, but we all know "Rogue One" went through major reshoots. That stuff was actually filmed, and maybe we'll see it someday -- beyond what was shown in the trailers that never made the theatrical cut. Edwards talked about the trailer-to-film disparity in the Empire podcast:
Oh, marketing. You just got thrown under the bus. But they threw Edwards right back with that "best of whatever you've done didn't even make the final film" burn. Things turned out A-OK in the end, but the extras on the future Blu-ray have the potential to be epic and quite lengthy with explanations. Heck, maybe even give a featurette to marketing.

| Alec Baldwin Reveals How Much 'SNL' Pays Him to Play Donald Trump Posted:
The New York Times casually revealed Baldwin's pay in a new profile of the actor, following his weekly transformation into the president-elect. (FYI, it takes seven minutes for Baldwin to become Trump through hair and makeup.) Here's the money blurb:
OK, for the past several years there have been 21 or 22 episodes a year. Baldwin's Trump won't be in all of them, but let's pretend he'll appear 20 times in the 2016-2017 season. That would give him $28,000 a season, which isn't going to make him rich, but considering each sketch is usually only a couple of minutes long, and he doesn't have to memorize the lines -- the cue cards are right there -- it's not a bad gig. However, Baldwin did tell the NY Times he's about to film two movies, and then presumably promote them, so his Trump performances for "SNL" will be intermittent. Plus, he said seeing his Trump every week would start to get old for the audience. The show wants to keep it special. So his total fee is probably going to be closer to $15,000 or something like that -- which, as a sidenote, is also around what he got paid to host the Oscars. Want more stuff like this?

| Margot Robbie Is Married! Check Out Her Gorgeous Wedding Ring Posted:
Robbie confirmed the nuptials with an Instagram post shared on Monday night, letting the image do the talking. In the photo, the actress and Ackerley share a kiss while Robbie extends her ring finger, which is clad in a gorgeous diamond engagement ring sitting atop a thin wedding band. Rumors about Robbie getting hitched began to swirl over the weekend when the actress was seen arriving at an Australian airport wearing a shirt that said, "Say 'I Do' Down Under." Family and friends of the couple also shared some cryptic posts on social media hinting that there was a big occasion involving the pair underway. The intimate ceremony took place on Sunday at a popular wedding venue in Byron Bay, a resort town in New South Wales, Australia. Robbie was reportedly walked down the aisle by her mother. The 26-year-old Aussie actress and Ackerley, a British assistant director, first met in 2013 on the set of the WWII drama "Suite Francaise." They began dating a short time later, and reportedly got engaged this summer, though no official engagement announcement was made by the couple. Congrats to the newlyweds!

| Zach Braff Wants a 'Scrubs' Revival: 'It's Something We All Talk About' Posted:
Count star Zach Braff in as one who wants to see it happen. The onetime Dr. John "J.D." Dorian touched on the possibility during a recent Twitter Q&A with IMDb promoting his latest directorial effort, "Going in Style." When a fan asked if the star ever considered making more "Scrubs," the writer-director offered a hopeful response.
"You never know about making more 'Scrubs' episodes," Braff said in a video reply. He continued:
Knowing that discussions about a "Scrubs" revival have been ongoing (most likely with series creator and Braff's close friend Bill Lawrence) certainly makes us optimistic, as does the star's firm commitment to appearing in it, if it ever does materialize. And Braff's reference of Netflix revival series "Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life"is also telling, since the original "Scrubs" is a staple of the online streaming service's offerings, just like "Gilmore" was. Could the sitcom's current popularity on Netflix inspire a similar revival? We'll have to wait and see. As Braff himself later noted on Twitter, his remarks don't really make anything official, since it's just him talking about wanting to do it, not announcing or confirming an actual deal.
Keep your fingers crossed, "Scrubs" fans, and stay tuned. [via: Zach Braff] This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
| 'Pretty Little Liars' was the Biggest TV Show on Social Media in 2016 Posted:
That's according to data collected by research firm ListenFirst Media, which analyzed television programming from January 1, 2016 through December 15, 2016 and determined that "PLL" was the number one overall show in terms of engagement on the aforementioned social media sites. ListenFirst does not analyze Twitter data -- which is exclusively released to rival media researcher Nielsen -- nor does it analyze Snapchat, which does not share its user engagement data with outside parties. But even if those two huge platforms were taken into consideration, ListenFirst says "Pretty Little Liars" would still dominate the online conversation (which also includes Tumblr and Google+). The series inspired 256 million engagements from fans, a whopping 25 percent increase since 2015; its biggest audience remains on Instagram, which is responsible for 82 percent of that hefty total. "'PLL' has consistently been at the top," said Meghan Cahill, ListenFirst's head of TV strategy, in a statement. "The storyline, especially going into their final season, has helped amplify their social engagement despite the algorithmic challenges from each of the platforms." According to Jason Klein, co-founder and co-CEO of ListenFirst Media, a large part of the huge recent boost in online fan engagement is thanks to television outlets spending more time and money promoting their shows on social media. That, in turn, has led to higher numbers in total social engagements, as well as total fan growth (a.k.a. the number of new followers a show attracted this year). The full rankings for ListenFirst's top social shows of 2016 are as follows: Returning Series, Social Engagement Score

| New 'Justice League' Photo Features The Flash Teaming With Batman and Wonder Woman Posted:
Played by Ezra Miller, The Flash (alias: Barry Allen) has made cameo appearances in both "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" and "Suicide Squad." But when "Justice League" premieres, the hero will get more screen time, and also a bit more than he bargained for when he clashes with the big personalities who have already gotten their due onscreen. In the new photo, premiered by Entertainment Weekly, The Flash is seen alongside Batman (Ben Affleck) and Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot), with the trio about to spring into action against an unseen foe. But first, all the heroes in the League will need to figure out how to get along with each other -- and that's especially difficult for The Flash, described by EW as "the league's overly excitable kid brother who uses humor to mask his pain." "Flash is Ringo Starr," Miller explained to EW, comparing the hero to the goofy, put-upon former Beatle. "He annoys everybody, but he doesn't have any specific beef with anyone." Fans will get to witness firsthand this awkward new dynamic when "Justice League" debuts on November 17, 2017. This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
| Marc Guggenheim Talks del Toro's 'Trollhunters,' Confirms More DC/CW Crossovers Posted:
For his latest effort, Guggenheim's turning his attention from the comic book page to the world of young adult fantasy fiction by "Trollhunters," the 2015 novel by acclaimed filmmaker Guillermo del Toro along with Daniel Kraus. Long before the book was published -- five years, to be precise -- Guggenheim was collaborating with del Toro on an animated adaptation of the tale that finds seemingly average teenager Jim inadvertently elevated to the role of Trollhunter, defender of a secret, centuries-old community of trolls hidden beneath his hometown, and finds himself balancing the demands of his title with making sure he makes it to gym class. When del Toro's expansive universe proved too big to be contained in a single film, Guggenheim put on his executive producer hat and built out a "Trollhunters" saga for the small screen as a 26-episode animated series for DreamWorks Animation, debuting on Netflix Dec. 23, featuring an all-star voice cast (including Steven Yeun, Kelsey Grammer, frequent del Toro collaborator Ron Perlman and the late Anton Yelchin in his final performance as Jim) Guggenheim joined Moviefone to delve into his behind-the-scenes experiences bringing del Toro's vision to animated, serialized life, and he also shares his thoughts on the wildly positive reception to the ambitious recent crossover of all four of the DC Universe TV series and what it promises for the future. Moviefone: You're no stranger to adapting characters that are created by somebody else or in some other medium, but Guillermo del Toro has such a specific vision for everything he does; he's such a very specific type of artist. How was the process different in trying to realize Guillermo's very specific vision for "Trollhunters"? Marc Guggenheim: I think that's a really smart and savvy question. I will say it helps enormously that Guillermo is able to, I think in many ways, sort of square the circle in the sense that, you're right, he does have an incredibly specific vision, and that's amazing, and that's why he's, quite frankly, Guillermo del Toro. At the same time, it threatens to be contradictory. I think, for anyone else, it is contradictory. But in Guillermo's case, it really isn't. He is incredibly collaborative, and he'll take a good idea from anywhere. He goes into these things without any ego. He's able to always keep his eye on the ball of what he wants, and he never looses sight of that, which is terrific. But at the same time, that vision still has room for other people's contributions. It's a remarkable thing, and it's a very rare thing, as you might imagine. What did you learn from collaborating with Guillermo? Oh gosh. I honestly don't know if we have the kind of time to list it all! The truth of the matter is that I always describe working with Guillermo as like going to film school. I don't think there's a single meeting, or phone call, even from the longest story breaking session to the shortest touch base, where he doesn't end up saying something where I don't learn something either about the business or the craft, or about storytelling in general. I would say probably the biggest thing I learned from Guillermo is trusting your audience. I think Guillermo, he really does trust the audience. Even when we're working on something where we intend for the audience to include young kids. He's very much about trusting the audience. They'll get it. They will follow the narrative, no matter how rich, no matter even how complex, and I don't think he's wrong. He trusts that the audience can handle it, even young kids can handle it. I think he's right. I think it's something that we tend to lose sight of, particularly in television. It's a very, very invaluable lesson. This is a great time for animated work on TV, with shows incorporating a little bit more complexity and serialization in the storytelling. For you, what was the fun and the challenge of a serialized story in the animation sphere? First of all, it was a huge amount of fun. It's funny. I never really looked at it as like a challenge. It honestly really felt like a series of opportunities. I think the project ended up benefiting a little bit from the fact that I hadn't really done animation, and I hadn't done children's television. The approach that we all took, consistent with Guillermo's vision, was that we're not writing it for kids. We're just writing it basically for people, and for people of all ages. So it's something that kids can watch, but there's plenty of humor that adults can appreciate. There's a timeless quality to the setting that makes it appeal to people of all ages. I think the story is very universal. It's essentially a "Chosen One" story, but sort of within that very generic description there was a huge amount of room for us to play with those tropes, and tweak them, and turn them on their head a little bit, which I think, again, is the kind of thing you come to associate with Guillermo's writing. I think one of the things Guillermo doesn't get enough credit for is, everyone understands and recognizes he's a visionary director, and he has this incredible visual style, but he's also a remarkable writer, and brings a lot of heart and humor to his work. It's a lot of fun to put that all in the mix and see what we ended up with. I'm sorry, I realize I started to run very far field of your original question. Are you energized to develop some more stuff in the animation field? Is that now a territory that you feel really attracted to? Yeah. I have to say that this whole experience -- and I've been working on "Trollhunters" now for about five years -- has been just so joyful. I can't express that enough. Part of it's the animation side of it. Part of it is just the wonderful people at DreamWorks who we work with. Whenever I go over to DreamWorks and see the animators, and see the designers, and just even walk around the space, quite frankly, it's so inspiring, and I come back to my offices at "Arrow" and "Legends" almost re-energized. So, yeah, I would like to think that it's not my last foray, as always. I'm very much about not picking things based upon the genre, but rather "Is the story interesting to me? Is the world compelling? And are the people involved people that I want to be spending time with?" I'd probably have to say, first of all -- just because it's the nature of my personality -- relieved. You know what was really nice? What was so great about the response -- I was reading Twitter and checking social media and everything, was for one night at least, the "Arrow" 100th, we all sort of dropped the tribalism of which relationships we wanted, and what plotlines were upsetting us, and it was just the celebration of the show. And that was really, really wonderful. Both the 100th episode and the crossover, it really was written with fans in mind. The whole thing really was an exercise in "What do we think is cool? What do we think the audience will think is cool? Trust that what we think is cool and what the audience thinks is cool is the same thing, and just go for it." I think the cherry on top of the sundae was, I think everyone watched with an eye towards what we were trying to accomplish. They recognized it was a TV show and it wasn't a movie, so they were I think impressed by the scope of it. They recognized that each of these shows has their own identity, so they understood that the "Flash" episode is an episode of "Flash," same with "Arrow," same with "Legends." I think what was most gratifying was just the fact that everyone was on board for this ride that we had constructed for them. It was super great. Definitely everyone, both here at the office and the studio and network, we've still been on a high. Do you see this as being an annual event? Yeah. I think, certainly, each year we've done a crossover, and each year it's gotten bigger and more ambitious. Those sorts of decisions are actually made well above my head -- though I don't think it's hard to look at the landscape and go "Well, surely there will be a proper four night crossover next year with all four shows -- 'Supergirl' properly included." But who knows? I think all of us are still recovering a little bit from this crossover. It is a lot of work. I'm not going to lie to you. It's a labor of love for sure, but it's definitely -- it's kind of like childbirth. You don't want to immediately start thinking about the next baby. You're still holding the newborn in your arms. I felt with the "Arrow" 100th in particular, by the time we got to the end of that particular episode, for "Arrow," the table's really been reset; everything seems open to a whole new way of looking at things and the possibilities are wide open. Do you guys feel that way creatively on staff? Yes and no, in the sense that, look: I think on "Arrow," we've always sort of felt like, once we introduced Barry Allen, and once the universe sort of expanded to include metahumans, and now time travel and parallel universes, and now aliens, I think we all recognize that the world is much bigger, and that "Arrow" can absolutely do episodes where he's fighting a metahuman, or, like we did last year, introduce magic. I think, last year, we leaned pretty heavily into metahumans and magic. I wouldn't say the results were mixed -- I would say that the response was mixed. I think what's a fun challenge for us on "Arrow"; how do we acknowledge this larger universe that has grown, while at the same time allowing "Arrow" to do what it does best? Which is: each of these shows has its own identity, and "Arrow" is the gritty, grounded crime drama. We do 23 episodes a year. So that's a pretty big canvas, and I think that out of 23 episodes, the show can benefit from, and withstand, the occasional foray into genre.

The vertical trailer is meant to be viewed on a mobile phone and features the "Meh" emoji. The dour guy apathetically tries to promote the film. "It's almost too thrilling for words," grumbles Mel Meh (Steven Wright). "The Emoji Movie" centers around an emoji named Gene (T.J. Miller), who's an outcast because he can display more than one emotion. He teams up with Hi-5 and the codebreaker Jailbreak to embark on an adventure through the apps on a teen's phone, including Candy Crush, Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, and Snapchat.

| 'Rogue One' Featurette Highlights Movie's Real Hero, K-2SO Posted:
Like BB-8 of "The Force Awakens," K-2SO has become the newest darling droid of the "Star Wars" universe. This new featurette goes behind the scenes of what it was like for actor Alan Tudyk to play the character via motion capture. As Tudyk explains, K-2SO is considered the "anti-C-3PO." And the clips from the film show the dry humor that the new droid delivers. Already, K-2SO has become a favorite among "Star Wars" fans. The pitch-perfect tone of the character is just one reason why "Rogue One" is both a critical and commercial hit. The movie had a massive opening weekend at the box office, scoring $155 million in North America, and looks to rake in many more millions over the coming weeks. Want more stuff like this?

| Dick Van Dyke Reveals He's in 'Mary Poppins' Sequel Posted:
He revealed the news in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter for a series called "Creative Until You Die." As he told THR, "This one supposedly takes place 20 years later and the kids are all grown up. It's a great cast — Meryl Streep, Angela Lansbury and that guy [Lin-Manuel Miranda] from 'Hamilton.'" It's unclear if Van Dyke will reprise his role of Bert, the chimney sweep. "Mary Poppins Returns" is set 20 years after the original in Depression-era London and focuses on the grown-up Banks children, Jane (Emily Mortimer) and Michael (Ben Whishaw). Emily Blunt plays the still-young Mary Poppins, with Miranda as a lamplighter named Jack. Also in the cast is Streep as Mary's cousin Topsy and Colin Firth as the president of a bank. "Mary Poppins Returns" is set to open in theaters Christmas 2018. Want more stuff like this? Like us on Facebook. This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |

| 'A Cure for Wellness': Gore Verbinski, Dane DeHaan Reveal First 35 Minutes of the Movie Posted:
Much was still unknown about the horror-thriller when the first preview debuted, except for a basic premise: Dane DeHaan, who co-leads Luc Besson's "Valerian and The City of a Thousand Planets," plays a young executive sent to retrieve his company's CEO from a mysterious wellness center in the Swiss Alps. Once he arrives, it becomes impossible to leave as he begins to unravel the secrets of the unique treatment and the curious illness that seems to be holding all the patients hostage. More answers to the plot of this tale were revealed at the Fox Showcase event, which previewed a few of the studio's films coming in 2017. In addition to a brand-new trailer, which you can watch for yourself below, attendees viewed the first 35 minutes of the film, which comes across as Verbinski's take on "Shutter Island."The film begins with the death of an executive. He's working frantically at his desk, long after everyone else has left for home, when he clutches his chest in pain. When the feeling persists, he goes to get a drink of water, but that seems to exacerbate the symptoms and he falls to the floor -- dead. Cut to DeHaan's Mr. Lockhart, who himself is typing furiously away in a spreadsheet while sitting on a train heading for the Alps and bossing a subordinate on the phone. Present and past blend in flashback as the screen is peppered with striking imagery, highlighting the artistry of cinematographer Bojan Bazelli. Lockhart was called in by his bosses at his financial firm. Thinking he'd be congratulated on his recent success, he's instead called out for his nefarious dealings that could put the entire company at fault. Lucky for him, he's quick to recognize they have a bigger fish to fry: Mr. Pembroke, their CEO, fled to a wellness center and left behind a letter with a message about a sickness in all of them. Believing him to be unhinged, the executives wants Lockhart to retrieve him so they can put the blame on Pembroke, leaving a spot for him to rise in the ranks. As he heads closer to the center, which is deep into the wild of the Alps, we see another flash of his mother, who dies and leaves him alone without a family -- meaning, there's no one who'll come to check up on him. Lockhart learns from his driver that the center doesn't have a peaceful relationship with the neighboring town, which seems to view the patients as "wealthy people" who have "wealthy problems." The center itself seems cultish. Verbinksi shot the scenes at a real location called Hohenzollern Castle, in Germany, which stands as a nod to Dracula's Transylvanian lair. DeHaan further noted how the director wanted him to watch films like "The Shining," "Rosemary's Baby," and "The Tenant" to get into the mood he was trying to achieve. The patients are much older and treating the spa as a retreat. Reality begins to blur with more bold imagery -- the eye of a deer head hanging on the wall reflects DeHaan's conversation with one of the facility's doctors, the spiral staircases and ocular architecture play with perspective, and Lockhart falls into hallucinations as he stumbles through the steam room. It all seems to come back to the water. The center specializes in hydrotherapy, and even the doctors are known to consume droplets of something out of vials. When Lockhart is unable to see Pembroke upon arrival, he has his driver take him to his hotel, but along the way a deer runs out in the street and causes the car to tumble down the mountainside. "My arm popped out of its socket, real quick, and then popped back in," DeHaan revealed of that scene, adding, "I just said, 'You have to use that take.'" And Verbinski did. Lockhart wakes up days later in a hospital bed at the center, his leg wrapped in a cast. The head of the spa, played by Jason Isaacs, says he notified his work and they all agree he should recuperate here. There were other, more subtle clues that suggest Lockhart won't be leaving anytime soon, but the biggest question is what's in the water? After Lockhart takes a drink in his hospital room, he plucks something from the glass: it's a small, wormy spec -- and it's moving. The footage, though intriguing, offers some healthy skepticism. The frame work and cinematography are both gorgeous to bold and foreboding of worse things to come, but some of the hints at what's to come seem obvious and the resemblance in story to "Shutter Island" are difficult to ignore. At the end of the day, the presentation did it's job: our interest is piqued. "A Cure for Wellness" hits theaters February 17, 2017.

Move over, Jennifer Lawrence, 
The plot sounds just as cute: According to EW, Pratt will play a charming horseback riding instructor named Nick; Christy (Faris) decides to pursue him, despite Nick being Marjorie's (Mimi Kennedy) nephew, and declared off limits. Forbidden fruit is often the most tempting... Based on the photo, Nick has no clue what he got himself into. But after the actor's stint in "The Magnificent Seven" he should have plenty to offer on the horseback riding front.
Wanted: Actor age 8-to-11 to play "confident," "arrogant, "short-tempered," "fiercely ritualistic," "socially awkward, once-in-a-generation genius" who lives in East Texas with a mother who sings "Soft Kitty" to him when he's sick. No pressure, but the kid better nail every "Bazinga," too!
