Who needs "300"-style Spartan abs when you can just blow robots up with your telekinetic powers?
That's a question you'll have to ask Gerard Butler, since according to Deadline he and his abs are in negotiations to replace Liam Hemsworth as the lead in Universal's feature version of sci-fi short "The Raven." No relation to that bird crap John Cusack movie of the same name, or the Lou Reed album either.
And, no, it's not the same movie as "The Crow," either. Nice try. Get More »

Questions and Answers with Teresa Palmer

Coming off her starring role as smitten zombie lover Julie Grigio in the well-received rom-zom-com "Warm Bodies," stunning Australian actress Teresa Palmer is quickly cementing a reputation for being a versatile team-player who can effortlessly hop from sci-fi action films ("I Am Number Four") to lighthearted comedy roles ("Take Me Home Tonight") without a moment’s hesitation. "Love and Honor," a romantic drama that opens today in theaters, showcases her dramatic chops as activist Candace, a supporter of the 1960s counterculture movement amidst the turmoil of the Vietnam War. She co-stars alongside "Hunger Games" actor Liam Hemsworth, who plays an American soldier who secretly ventures home from the war to reunite with the girlfriend he previously left behind (Aimee Teegarden).
"I just hope people really connect with the movie and that they understand that it’s a beautiful love story," Palmer tells NextMovie about her latest film. "We had a lot of fun doing it. I just hope that it ends up finding an audience."
NextMovie had a chance to chat with Palmer, who was in a car halfway around the world that happened to hit a bit of turbulence right as the conversation began. After overcoming her sudden bout of car trouble, she clued us in on the fun she had working alongside Hemsworth, growing up with kangaroos on her dad's private animal refuge, and what goes through her mind when she's mistaken for another young actress whose name starts with a "K" and ends with "risten Stewart."

Forget his brother Thor, evildoers everywhere should fear the godly wrath of "The Mighty Liam!"
Liam Hemsworth must still think he's in "The Hunger Games" since he saw fit to pulverize a dude in the middle of the street this past Sunday, according to a typically shaky, blurry video from TMZ.
Shot in the wee hours on the streets of Philadelphia, where Hemsworth is lensing reshoots on the Harrison Ford/Gary Oldman thriller "Paranoia," the video shows Chris Hemsworth's little bro delivering a savage beatdown on a guy clinging to his leg. Get More »

Ouch! Liam Hemsworth Gets a Boo-Boo on 'Catching Fire' Set
Lionsgate
Being a central part of Hollywood's newest "it" franchise is not without its share of setbacks.
While Liam Hemsworth might have gotten to skirt most of the action-oriented work in "The Hunger Games," he's now getting his hands — and knees, apparently — dirty with work on the sequel "Catching Fire."
According to USA Today, Hemsworth suffered a slight injury on the Atlanta, Georgia set of "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire" last week when he took tumble and twisted his knee during some stunt work. Get More »

'The Hunger Games' Cast Talent Show
Yahoo! UK
The fact that the cast of "The Hunger Games" has on-screen talent is a no-brainer. Just look at their Oscar cred!
That bunch knows how to sizzle before the camera. But did you know Jennifer Lawrence (Katniss Everdeen) can also air-puppetteer her own face? Or that Josh Hutcherson (Peeta Mellark) can make an insane cricket chirping noise on cue? Or that Liam Hemsworth (Gale Hawthorne) can perform magic tricks for a crowd? Get More »

Liam Hemsworth Makes Love, Not War, in 'Love and Honor' Trailer
YouTube
When it comes to romantic dramas, all too often the drama part is based on some sort of silly problem that has you shouting at the movie screen in the hopes that the main character will stop being a moron. Should he go with his one true love, or, you know, stick with that cushy dogsitting job. Really, c'mon.
Then there's the new trailer for "Love and Honor," which gives Liam Hemsworth's soldier a slightly larger dilemma: Either stay with the love of his life and risk being thrown into prison as a deserter, or return to the horror of frontline combat in Vietnam.
And here you thought Gale had it rough in "The Hunger Games." Get More »

GALLERY: Liam Hemsworth Is Far From Expendable
Whether you're on Team Gale or Team Peeta, one thing is totally non-negotiable: Liam Hemsworth is hot.
The Australian actor is one-third of the love triangle in "The Hunger Games" as Gale Hawthorne. He's Katniss' best friend and the object of affection of most of her schoolmates. Strangely, she doesn't seem to notice his bulging biceps and piercing blue eyes, which we'll get to see even more of with Liam's spot in the merry band of mercenaries in "The Expendables 2."
But we most certainly have noticed. And we've deemed them more than worthy of a Hot People Looking Hot gallery.
Worry not — we won't make anyone pick a side. You can also see Peeta Josh Hutcherson's gallery here.
