Joseph Gordon-Levitt Playing The Next Batman After All And Snyder And Cavill Involved In "Justice League" Film Too?

Reports online are strongly suggesting that Joseph Gordon-Levitt is in meetings over at Warner to star as the new Batman in their "Justice League" BIG-screen movie. It's been rumored for ages that Levitt could be the next Batman in either a direct sequel to Chris Nolan's film series or crossover and enter into the "Justice League" film universe when it begins in 2015. 
Online sites were suggesting that Warner were going to clean the slate and cast a brand new Batman for both the "Justice" universe and the solo Batman reboot series, but now that may not be the case after all. John Blake could be Batman rather than go back and re-create Bruce Wayne again. 
Fans, including me, didn't like the idea of two Batmen and the same going for Superman, two different Supermen on-screen. Maybe Warner have listened to fans and thought, "Fuck it, let's bring back Levitt and keep him as Batman from now on."...........well hopefully, because this is just a MASSIVE rumor. 
Zach Snyder did though let slip that he and his Superman, Henry Cavill, could be apart of the planned "Justice" film after all, rather than the split universe. I would rather see Cavill come back rather than two different actors playing the same hero on-screen.............POINTLESS!!! 
When Snyder was asked about his involvement in the "Justice" film, he said, 

"I can’t really say anything to that, because that’s a big spoiler. I will say, yeah, they trust me to keep them on course."
He also added,


"I don’t know how ‘Justice League’ is going to be handled. Honestly, I don’t, but ‘The Man of Steel’ exists, and Superman is in it. I don’t know how you’d move forward without acknowledging that."


UPDATE: Hollywood.com have reported that Gordon-Levitt's reps have denied the rumor of him appearing in the "Justice League" film as John Blake. Reps have denied things before and it's turned out true though.

"Sherlock: Series 3" Not On TV Until Late 2013/Early 2014!

It's been reported and confirmed that filming for the third series of hit BBC show "Sherlock" has been moved to March next year and may not air on TV until late 2013 or early 2014 at the most.
Filming was originally confirmed to start in early January for a Summer 2013 air, but not that seems as though that ain't going to happen, which is very annoying because we may have to wait for another year/year and a half if so.

Kevin Feige Confirms No Avengers Cameos In "IRON MAN 3"

Marvel producer, Kevin Feige, has confirmed that none of the other Avengers will appear in any way shape or form in Shane Black's 2013 "Iron Man" sequel.

"Iron Man 3 doesn't feature any of the other Avengers, or Nick Fury showing up, or any of those world-blending conceits that the Phase One films had. You have to keep in mind that Iron Man 3 had been in the works for almost a year, year and a half before The Avengers was released. We're sticking to the vision for these films, and showing once again that these characters are just as interesting alone as they are together."

Usually Sam Jackson's Nick Fury is usually the one that cameos in the "Iron Man" films, but not this time around.

The First Trailer For This Years "DW: Xmas Special"

I totally forgot to blog about this teaser trailer of this years "Doctor Who: Christmas Special" shown on "Children In Need 2012" last Friday, the 16th. Fans, as usual, during "Children In Need" where treated to a teaser trailer for "Doctor Who: The Snowmen", which is this years title for the Christmas Special.
The trailer is a bit cheesy because the villains are Snowmen, but it's just awesome to see The Doctor back in action since his last emotional appearance when Amy and Rory left. It's also awesome to see the new companion, played by Jenna-Louise Coleman to be in action too.
It's interesting to see the three above characters returning to the show. I wonder how they got there and just happen to meet up with The Doctor and his new companion? Anyway, like I said, the episode looks cheesy, but brilliant and I'm just happy to see it back on TV, so check out the new trailer here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L3KVpvEUTns

"Lost Boys" Franchise Is Dead........Well Kind Of!

While promoting his new horror film, "6 Degrees of Hell", Corey Feldman was asked if the "Lost Boys" franchise will go on even though the company that distributes the direct-2-DVD sequels has closed down. A few months back Warner Premiere closed down, which now leaves the long-running franchise in limbo. There were plans for a new trilogy and new TV spin-off too, but now it looks as though the franchise is dead after what Feldman said, 

"I am not sure if you are aware, but Warner Premiere has folded. The company that was assigned to make the films in The Lost Boys franchise are no longer in business. Therefore, that leaves The Lost Boys without a home. The Frog Brothers are homeless at the moment.

I would like to see the franchise stay alive. There is not a day that passes, that a fan doesn't write to me and say, "What about the next The Lost Boys? Where is Lost Boys 4? What about another Frog Brothers movie? Frog Brothers TV show Frog Brothers cartoon?

People love it. People want to see more of it. Jamison Newlander and I are always down to get back into bed. But that being said, it's Warner Bros. that drives that boat. It is a Warner Bros. film, it's a Warner Bros. franchise. Without Warner Bros. behind it, there are no more Frog Brothers. The Bros. Warner need to get back into bed with The Bros. Frog. Then we can all have a great big movie orgy. Until then, we are all left as homeless Frogs."

JR Ewing Is Dead!

On Friday 24th 2012 a legend died. Larry Hagman, known for his famous role as evil oil baron JR Ewing in both the original and new series of "Dallas" passed away in hospital due to cancer. He lived his last hours with his family and closet friends, Patrick Duffy and Linda Gray, who play his on-screen brother and ex-wife, Bobby Ewing and Sue Ellen. He died in the city he loved most...........DALLAS. 
Hagman already began filming a few episodes for series two of the revived version of the classic show which ran for nearly 20 years in it's original run. Now the writers are said to be re-writing the last scene he filmed and add in his death into the show. 
It's really a sad day when someone who you love watching on TV dies. I never watched the original show, but I loved the new series so much. I was looking forward to the next series, which begins in January in the US but later next year over here in the UK. Hopefully the show will go on without him. My dad always did say that Hagman would probably play JR until the day he died, he was so right. 
Friends and co-stars took to Twitter and other online sites and news reporters to took about the global star. Close friend, Patrick Duffy, told newspapers, 

"MY friend is taking a break." 

Victoria Prinicpal, who played Pam Ewing in the old series said, 

"He is unforgettable, and irreplaceable, to millions of fans around the world, and in the hearts of each of us, who was lucky enough to know and love him," 

And finally, classic "Dallas" director Michael Preece said, 

"Larry did direct a lot of episodes, and you'd stage a scene, they would just stage it for you, he was terrific. And you try to get most of his work before lunch, because he was better in the morning - but he was great to be around, it was like a family."

"Empire Strikes Back" Writers Back For New Trilogy!

Reports online are saying that original "Star Wars" writer, Lawrence Kasdan, is returning to write the scripts for the next two films after "Episode 7", which is currently being wrote by Michael Arndt. It was rumored that Arndt was penning all three scripts, but it looks like that may not be the case now. Kasdan wrote the script for the amazing "Empire Strikes Back" and is looking to bring the feel of that installment into the new ones with "X-Men: First Class" writer, Simon Kinberg. It's also been rumored on Twitter that both writers of "Episode 8 & 9" will also be producers for the whole new trilogy too.
