'Pain & Gain' Keeps Box Office Seat Warm For 'Iron Man 3'
Paramount
There was good news and bad news for "Pain & Gain" at the box office this weekend according to Film.com. The good news: Michael Bay's new comedy, which stars Mark Wahlberg and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, took the top spot with an estimated $20 million debut. The bad news: It's going to get absolutely steamrolled by "Iron Man 3" next weekend, as Marvel's latest superhero epic earned over $195 million in its international opening.
Boom.
And the feeling that this weekend was just the calm before the storm carried over to the rest of the box office, which was down nearly 20% from last year. "Oblivion" managed to hold onto second place with an estimated $17.6 million, but the new romcom "The Big Wedding" was a big flop, drawing just $7.5 million in its opening weekend.

Before stepping into the spotlight as the new young hero in the fourth installment of the "Transformers" franchise, Jack Reynor would like to spend a little time talking about "What Richard Did." Nope, "Richard" is not one of Jack's friends — it's the new indie import from Ireland he stars in that screened at the Tribeca Film Festival this week.
The 21-year-old Reynor plays Richard, a high schooler whose life seems to be skimming along a golden road until a fate-changing accident the summer before his senior year.
Of course, we couldn't let Reynor go without asking him a few questions about "Transformers." Read on for Reynor's prediction for the number of explosions in the action movie, his favorite things about New York and an in-depth discussion of Mark Wahlberg's third nipple. Get More »

A Michael Bay-produced live-action "Ninja Turtles" movie is coming into actualized reality, and there's nothing we can do to stop it short of a PETA representative finding out actual turtles are being molested on-set.

Nicola Peltz Will Be the Next 'Transformers' Girl
Ya know, maybe the world's not giving the "Transformers" franchise quite enough credo for its consistent hot lady factor ... Or maybe it is.
Nicola Peltz has just signed on to star as the babe du jour for "Transformers 4," as confirmed by Michael Bay and his blog, while the series' original eye candy Megan Fox still doesn't appear to be making any cameo in the flick — though it's probably not her public tiff-ing with Bay at issue, since she's lined up to star in his "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" reboot and all.
