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.

Given that, the film's cast is shaping up, with a new addition in the form of our favorite "Arrested Development" magician, Will Arnett, who The Hollywood Reporter says is signed for an unspecified lead role in Paramount's big budget "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles." Get More »

You won't have to wait for the "Justice League" movie to see Batman and Superman team up on the big screen.

Well, sort of. The LEGO versions of the DC superheroes are set to join forces in "LEGO: The Piece of Resistance," according to Variety.

"LEGO: The Piece of Resistance" tells the story of Emmet (voiced by Chris Pratt), an ordinary LEGO mini-figure who's mistaken for the extraordinary MasterBuilder and subsequently drafted into a fellowship of strangers on a quest to stop an evil tyrant from gluing the universe together.

Somehow, both Batman (voiced by Will Arnett) and Superman (hopefully voiced by Channing Tatum) fit into this epic adventure ... and we have a feeling a few other LEGO-ized pop culture characters may make appearances as well. Get More »

Judging by the trailer to the Beastie Boys' "long ass video thing" -- otherwise known as "Fight For Your Right Revisited" -- MCA's short film that recently premiered at Sundance Film Festival, the group clearly has one of the deepest contact lists in the game.

 The quasi-sequel to "(You Gotta) Fight for Your Right (to Party!)" sees John C. Reilly, Will Ferrell and Jack Black as Beasties from the future who travel back in time to square off against current-day Beasties Elijah Wood, Seth Rogen and Danny McBride. Get More »

"Hands down, 'Withnail and I.' It's the perfect movie.

"It's my kind of movie, which is brilliantly funny on a very profound level and has a lot of drama and a lot of heart to it as well. There's not a wasted word in that film."

Will Arnett can currently be seen on TV's "Running Wilde."
