The 10 Best Junket Interviews Ever
BBC / YouTube
It's a fact of life for an actor/writer/director after doing a movie: Just before the film debuts, you meet with the press and answer questions like, "What was it like to work with Matthew Modine?" and "Before playing a mime, did you meet with any mimes to prepare?" It's a part of the biz, so to speak, and the process is generally unremarkable.
Except when it isn't. Whether the interview becomes awkward, hilarious, charming or weird, it also always becomes magical, as we saw when the Internet exploded this week over Mila Kunis's playful flirtation with a quirky British chap. Get More »

Big Fat Rumor: Christian Bale Back in Black for 'Justice League'???
Warner Bros.
Rumors have been swirling about what Warner Bros. is going to do with their mountain of DC superheroes in the wake of Marvel's dazzling success with "The Avengers," but the studio has backtracked on Will Beall's script and may be unable to reach their 2015 release date for "Justice League."
Or can they? The (frequently correct) rumor mongers over at Latino Review have just posted a video claiming to have inside info that the masterminds behind this summer's "Man of Steel" (Christopher Nolan, Zack Snyder, David Goyer) will be taking the reigns of the entire DC Universe, with Snyder directing Justice League and… *drumroll* Christian Bale returning as Batman!

Bradley Cooper May Live Strong as Lance Armstrong in J.J. Abrams' Biopic
The Weinstein Co.
Look, J.J. Abrams just doesn't sleep ya'll.
The "Star Trek Into Darkness" director who's also recently signed on to helm Disney's "Star Wars: Episode VII" may have another star-centric project underway. This time, it's about an international sports figure who dropped the ball got caught doing some naughty things on his cycling road to victory.
That man, of course, is Lance Armstrong, who's found his name at the tippy top of many sports pages lately (interrupted just briefly by the perplexing Manti T'eo) thanks to his gobsmacking admission to doping on the race course and winning seven consecutive Tour de France titles. Largely considered a hero for his tireless cancer patient support efforts with the Livestrong Foundation (he himself survived testicular cancer before beginning his victory streak) Armstrong's story has confounded the public and gotten J.J. Abrams on board to produce a biopic based upon his life. Get More »

8-Year-Old Leukemia Patient Talks Batman with Batman
Christian Bale may have hung up his cape and cowl, but he is and forever will be Batman to a lot of people. And the star seems to be taking that seriously as he engages in some pretty superheroic acts in real life.
Eight-year-old leukemia patient Zach Guillot was able to talk about his favorite superhero with none other than his favorite superhero when Bale called him on the phone to have a chat about the Bat. Zach talked about his own Batman costume and cardboard Batmobile, to which Bale responded:
"The whole point of the movie is anybody can be Batman. Anybody can be as strong as that and help people and put good out into the world."
Bale and Zach enjoyed a lengthy conversation, of which Bale promised to tell "the lady who plays Catwoman" (Anne Hathaway) even "the man who played the evil Bane" (Tom Hardy).
This seems to be a completely different Christian Bale than the lunatic who threw an infamous temper tantrum on the set of "Terminator Salvation." Last year, he paid for a four-year-old leukemia patient to meet him at Disneyland and this past summer he made an appearance at a Colorado hospital to visit several of the people who were injured in the Aurora theater shooting.
You can learn more about Zach’s life and battle with leukemia at his ZachAttacksLeukemia Facebook page, and thanks to both Heat Vision and TheFW.com for the find.

Behold! The Ultimate Bruce Wayne
Holy Photoshop Wizardry, Batman!
Reddit user morphinapg has worked some finesse worthy of Batcave technology in merging the features of former Batmen Adam West, Michael Keaton, Val Kilmer, George Clooney and Christian Bale to create the be-all, end-all Caped Crusader (unmasked, of course).
Take a good look. Is that not the face of a billionaire playboy by day, masked vigilante by night? Let Hollywood be on the lookout for a headshot that most resembles the above when it comes time for "Justice League" casting.
