MacGruber! Making lifesaving inventions out of household materials!
MacGruber! His movie kinda bombed but they might make another one!
MacGruber! Will Forte must be strapped for cash!

In the pantheon of totally unlikely sequels to movies that tanked, "MacGruber" has to be one of the unlikeliest, but when Screen Crush talked to the film's director/co-writer Jorma Taccone, he claimed Forte's eponymous bomb deactivator just might be clever enough to pull it off. Get More »

Abigail Breslin Is First in Line For 'Final Girl'

Abigail Breslin is going out after dark.

The "Little Miss Sunshine" star is set to get some very unwanted attention as she's been targeted as the "Final Girl," according to Deadline.

"Final Girl" is a contemporary fable that deals with a pack of feral teenage boys who choose the wrong girl (Breslin) to be the victim of their final "initiation." How she's the "wrong" girl remains to be seen, though we have a feeling it might involve what the movies call a "roaring rampage of revenge."

We know Abigail Breslin can hold her own in a mad world after her survivor roles in both "Zombieland" and M. Night Shyamalan's "Signs." Right now she's doing battle with another alien race in "Ender's Game" and making things go bump in the night as a ghost in "Haunter," which are both currently in production. Get More »

Shia LaBeouf: From "Lawless" to Lawman.

The "Transformers" star is picking up his badge and gun for the new police thriller, "Triple Nine," according to The Playlist.

"Triple Nine," which will reunite LaBeouf with his "Lawless" director, John Hillcoat, centers on a group of crooked L.A. police officers who realize they must shoot one of their own in order to get away with planning a major heist. The project first started brewing a few years ago with Chris Pine and Jeff Bridges set to star but that version fell apart; it's now been confirmed as Hillcoat's next project. Get More »

It looks like Tom Cruise wants to be a gunslinger.

The "Mission: Impossible" star is loading his six-shooter and riding into the sunset of the remake of "The Magnificent Seven," according to Variety.

The original "The Magnificent Seven" (1960) took the basic premise of Akira Kurosawa's "Seven Samurai" and reworked it as a western, in which a group of mercenaries are hired by the citizens of a Mexican village to protect them from bandits. The film definitely had "true grit" — and star power galore, provided by an amazing cast that includes Yul Brynner, Steve McQueen, Eli Wallach, Charles Bronson, Robert Vaughn, Brad Dexter and James Coburn.

'Snow White' Cast Gets Erotic with 'Fifty Shades of Grey'

Get ready for your inner goddess to roar and explode.

"Erotica" is the stimulating new sub-series of "MTV After Hours," and host Josh Horowitz sends temperatures through the roof as he has the cast of "Snow White and the Huntsman" read select passages from E.L. James' tantalizing bestseller, "Fifty Shades of Grey." Not surprisingly, Charlize Theron adds her own blocking, Kristen Stewart delivers side commentary every fourth word or so and Sam Claflin goes for the calm and cool seduction. Meanwhile, it's all a bit too much for Chris Hemsworth, who's shocked to discover he's not really on MTV … but, rather, "Erotica."

See if you can stand it. You can pick up your own copy of "Fifty Shades of Grey" at your local bookstore — unfortunately, the "Snow White" cast doesn't provide the Audio Book recording.
