Forget that silly Team Edward vs. Team Jacob rivalry. The real question is “Are you Team Zac or Team Justin?”
That’s the unfortunate decision one studio may have to make if an adaptation of Memphis comes to fruition. The Broadway production could soon be headed to the big screen, and rumor has it Zac Efron and Justin Timberlake are both interested in the same role.

The above trailer for My Soul to Take proves that horror master Wes Craven is still at the top of his game - and that’s good news for Scream fans.
Craven will also be directing the fourth flick in the franchise, but for film buffs who just have to have a taste of terror right now, Soul looks devilishly thrilling.
The plot centers on a group of teens who live in a small town known for its bloody past. When they start to die, they are forced to look amongst themselves to find the killer.
The film is the first that Craven has written and directed since New Nightmare (1994).

When Piranha 3D finally hits theaters, rabid fish won’t be the only things capturing our attention.
During an interview with Jimmy Kimmel, Jerry O’Connell – who plays a “soft core pornography mogul” in the film – made a big reveal. “I show frontal,” the married father of two teased.
Should this spoiler lure you into watching the film, O’Connell would like you to know something beforehand. “There may be some issues with the piranha…and my member…maybe,” he warned. Why? Because a “very cold” Colorado River was rushing into the body of water (Lake Havasu) they were filming in.
“So when you see me, it’s very cold water,” he insisted.
If you’d like to gauge that water temp for yourself, the film opens this weekend.

Warning: Explicit language and spoilers!
Production on the film hasn’t started yet, but we’ve got a Breaking Dawn trailer just the same…after a fashion. The trailer uses the story line from The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, the novel, to mock a few of the more ridiculous story elements which (we think) will be featured in the upcoming full-length movie.
If you haven’t read the books and don’t want to know the plot, don’t click!

I’m not sure if it’s possible to make a film that has elements of Borat, Crazy Heart
andMaking the Band—but director Casey Affleck may have done that here.
In this “documentary” titled I’m Still Here: The Lost Years of Joaquin Phoenix, we get an inside look at the subject’s most drastic transformation since changing his name from Leaf Phoenix. But is it all for real? And do we really care what Joaquin has supposedly become?
Those unable to turn away from this train wreck can watch more if it when I’m Still Here debuts September 10.
