20th Century Fox takes over 'The Three Stooges' as Farrelly Bros. begin casting

Now that a U.S. Bankruptcy Court has approved MGM's financial-reorganization plan, Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation has taken over production on the Farrelly Brothers feature film "The Three Stooges". The Farrelly Brothers are based at 20th Century Fox.

At one point Jim Carrey, Sean Penn and Benicio del Toro were all cast to play the three lead roles in "The Three Stooges" movie. But after MGM's financial woes, those three pulled out of the project.

One of the film's producer/directors, Peter Farrelly, stated that ""The script is ready to go, and we are opening up these roles to the world right now, we'll make it with the best possible people. Our feeling is that no star is too big to audition and no matter who it is, we're going to have to see him in the role. This is not The Flintstones. You've got to be Moe Howard, Larry Fine and Curly Howard, and that could be a major movie star or an unknown."

Auditions for the film will begin in January, 2011 and shooting is scheduled for a March 14, 2011 start date in Atlanta, GA.

Story:

A modern day comedy following the misadventures of Moe, Larry, and Curly. The screenplay breaks the feature into four 20-minute shorts, in an approximation of the vaudeville and slapstick pioneers' most common format in the 1920s and '30s. The first episode establishes the bruising, boisterous brothers as 7-year-old castoffs who terrorize the nun-run orphanage that takes them in. Eventually forced to leave, Moe (the hostile leader), Larry (the jokey sidekick) and Curly (the childlike dimwit) try to find a place for themselves in a modern world.

The film's Producers Elliott Broidy and Rotimi Rainwater have partnered with the homeless shelter My Friends Place to raise funds for its activities. My Friend's Place is a nonprofit Resource Center offering a comprehensive continuum of care that includes free emergency resources such as food and clothing in combination with health, educational, and therapeutic services to over 1,800 homeless youth and their children each year. My Friends Place is a location for some of the shooting on "Sugar".

Casting for day players, extras, stand-ins, and photo doubles will continue throughout filming, which ends December 22, 2010.

"Sugar" is under SAG contract and will be released in late 2011.

Story:

A time travel thriller, set in a near future where time travel doesn't exist but will be invented in a few decades. It involves a group of killers (called Loopers) who work for a crime syndicate in the future. Their bosses send their targets hogtied and blindfolded back in time to the Loopers, and their job is to simply shoot them in the head and dispose of the body. So the target vanishes from the future and the Loopers dispose of a corpse that doesn't technically exist, a very clean system. The complicated plot involves a Looper named Joe (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) who works for this mob - called "the Gat Men," of the future. When he recognizes one victim as his future self (Bruce Willis), he hesitates, letting the man escape. In looper parlance, this is known as "letting the loop run" — and having a man from the future running around leads to other consequences. In order to save his immediate future, the man needs to track down and kill his future self, while his future self is trying to find and kill a young boy who is the key to his survival in the future. Emily Blunt will play the mother of the boy.

Columbia Pictures feature film reboot 'Spider-Man' auditions in full swing

Principal actor casting has been completed.

The main players for the upcoming production of "Spider-Man" are coming together for Columbia Pictures, however countless supporting and day player roles have yet to be cast, not to mention the hordes of extras, stand-ins, and photo doubles. Auditions are taking place out of Los Angeles, where filming will take place.

The Emmy Award nominated and seven time Casting Society of America Artios Award winning casting director Francine Maisler was been brought in to cast the Spider-Man reboot. The highly talented Mark Webb will direct the film. Webb was mostly known as a music video and short-film director until his feature length debut, (500) Days of Summer.

Originally there was plans for "Spiderman 4" with Sam Raimi attached to direct and Toby Maguire, Kirsten Dunst and other cast members set to reprise their roles. Sony Pictures announced in January 2010 that plans for Spider-Man 4 had been cancelled due to Raimi's withdrawal from the project. Raimi reportedly ended his participation due to doubt that he could meet the planned May 6, 2011 release date while upholding the film creatively. Simultaneous with the cancellation of Spider-Man 4, Sony announced that the franchise would be rebooted with a new director and new cast.

The film has had the working titles of "Untitled Spider-Man Reboot," and "Spiderman 2.0," but is currently being referred to as simply "Spider-Man". This of course is subject to change.

Shooting will take place in Los Angeles beginning December 6, 2010. The release date is scheduled for July 3, 2012.

Before they were archenemies, they were closest of friends, working together, with other Mutants (some familiar, some new), to stop the greatest threat the world has ever known. In the process, a rift between them opened, which began the eternal war between Magneto’s Brotherhood and Professor X’s X-Men.

Warner Bros. Pictures launches massive talent search for the next Man of Steel

Director Zack Snyder and the VP of Feature Casting at Warner Bros. Pictures, are now officially on the hunt to find a new Superman. They are seeking a male who can appear to be between the ages of 28 and 32. The focus is on talented performers who are either unknowns or rising stars who do not carry the huge price tag of well established star talents. Warner Bros. wants to discover someone it can develop into A-list star status with the iconic role as Clark Kent aka Superman. The talent search will be exhaustive with the studio expecting to audition “hundreds of young actors”

Deborah Snyder, who is married to the film's director Zack Snyder, will serve as co-producer. Together they own the production company Cruel & Unusual Films. They recently wrapped principal photography on the Warner Bros. feature film "Sucker Punch" starring Australian actresses Emily Browning and Abbie Cornish, as well as Vanessa Hudgens and Jamie Chung.

Christopher Nolan and Emma Thomas will serve as the film's executive producers under the banner of their production company Syncopy, Inc. Syncopy has executive produced such feature films as Batman Begins, The Dark Knight, The Dark Knight Rises (upcoming), and the recent blockbuster hit Inception.

Charles Roven's Atlas Entertainment is also on board to co-produce. Roven has previously collaborated with Warner Bros. Pictures on several Batman films and numerous other productions.

Superman is scheduled to begin filming in June 2011, and will hit theaters in December 2012.

Open casting calls, either online or on location, will be posted here as they become available.

Filming on "Spy Kids 4: Armageddon" is underway at Director Robert Rodriguez' Troublemaker Studios in Austin, TX, and Dimension Films has announced that the 3-D family-friendly action-adventure film will be released on August 19, 2011.

James Cameron's 'Avatar 2' auditions and casting information

Academy Awardwinning Producer/Writer/Director James Cameron has officially announced on Wednesday, October 27, 2010 that his next two films will be Avatar 2 and Avatar 3. It was also announced that Avatar 2 is scheduled to be released in December 2014, and Avatar 3 is scheduled for a 2015 release.

Fox Filmed Entertainment chairmen Jim Gianopulos, Tom Rothman and James Cameron made the announcement on the two picture deal. Cameron stated, "I am looking forward to returning to Pandora, a world where our imaginations can run wild. It is a rare and remarkable opportunity when a filmmaker gets to build a fantasy world, and watch it grow, with the resources and partnership of a global media company."

James Cameron will shoot the movies starting in late 2011. He will decide whether to film the two sequels back to back after he wraps up the final drafts of the scripts. He also is teaming up with Jon Landau, a partner at Lightstorm Entertainment, to produce the film. Lightstorm partner Rae Sanchini negotiated the deal with Fox Filmed Entertainment on Lightstorm’s behalf.

The principal actor casting will in all likelihood be a very long process that will begin well ahead of the start of principal photography. The cast is expected to be very large with A-list stars down to completely unknown newcomers.

Casting Director information subject to change, please check back for updates.

Columbia Pictures auditions for Spiderman 2.0 in 3D moving forward

The Emmy Award nominated and seven time Casting Society of America Artios Award winning casting director Francine Maisler has been brought in by Columbia Pictures to cast the upcoming Spider-Man reboot. The film now has a working title of Spiderman 2.0 and Andrew Garfield has been tapped to play Peter Parker aka Spiderman.

The highly talented Mark Webb will direct the film. Webb was mostly known as a music video and short-film director until his feature length debut, (500) Days of Summer.

Originally there were plans for 'Spider-Man 4' with Sam Raimi attached to direct and Maguire, Dunst and other cast members set to reprise their roles. Sony Pictures announced in January 2010 that plans for Spider-Man 4 had been canceled due to Raimi's withdrawal from the project. Raimi reportedly ended his participation due to doubt that he could meet the planned May 6, 2011 release date while upholding the film creatively. Simultaneous with the cancellation of Spider-Man 4, Sony announced that the franchise would be rebooted with a new director and new cast.

The studio is working off a script by James Vanderbilt, and has hired two time Academy Award winning veteran screenwriter Alvin Sargent to fine-tune the script and do a production polish for the Spiderman reboot. Sargent has worked on every single 'Spider-Man' movie, and has become Sony Studio’s go-to guy for punching up weighty scenes. The new 'Spiderman is rumored to be more emotionally anchored and realistic than the previous movies.

The film will begin shooting in December, 2010 in Los Angeles and is scheduled to hit theaters July 3, 2012. The studio will release the film in 3D.

Talent Search for girl to star in 'Dance of the Mirlitons' with Kristen Bell

Original Film and Cinemagic Productions are currently in pre-production on the feature film 'Dance of the Mirlitons'. Original Film is the production company behind such films as the Fast and Furious films, The Bounty Hunter, I Am Legend, xXx: State of the Union, Made of Honor, and many more. Shooting on 'Dance of the Mirlitons' begins in November, 2010.

Here is what the casting directors are seeking:

JESSE URCHIN: Female, Caucasian 10 to 12 years old. Should be at least a little overweight or awkward in some way, and have some knowledge of Ballet. Jesse is Corrine Urchin's daughter, is a seemingly unassuming girl and an unlikely ballerina. She has a passion for dance, she's thrilled when she's accepted to the Battleboro School for Young Dancers, but outraged to discover that the video tape sent to the school was that of her mother, a former ballet dancer. To make matters worse, innocent and naïve Jesse is relegated to a special education class based simply on her physique. Incensed by this atrociousness, Jesse plots her revenge, becoming tenacious and ambitious to a fault. She heeds the lesson her mother has taught her throughout her childhood, "I am a warrior", and approaches her revenge with that mentality. Further galvanized upon learning that the school will beholding auditions for the coveted role of Sleeping Beauty in the ballet of the same name, Jesse is determined to land the plum role, no matter what it takes.

No phone calls or personal drop-offs to any of the casting offices.

If you are on the East Coast and are interested, please email a recent photo and headshot to casting directors SuzAnne Smith Crowley and Jessica Kelly: info.chrystiestreetcasting@gmail.com

The scenes in the movie that take place in Barrow are being reconstructed in Anchorage due to the lack of necessary hotels, housing and businesses to accommodate a months-long shoot, although there will be 1-2 weeks of filming in Barrow. Filming will begin on September 16, 2010 in Anchorage, Alaska and run through December 14, 2010. The release date is scheduled for 2012.

Story:

Based on the true 1988 tale of the rescue of a trio of California gray whales found under the ice of the Arctic Circle near Barrow, Alaska. Over a two week period, the U.S. and Soviet governments joined with oil company executives, environmental activists, Eskimos, businessmen and military officers to help free the giant mammals. Krasinski will play a small town newspaper reporter who breaks the story. Barrymore plays Rachel Kramera, a Greenpeace activist and they turn the potential tragedy into an international story. The incident created a temporary Cold War thaw as President Ronald Reagan and Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev found a common cause. They interceded to save the whales.

The first adaptation, Diary of a Wimpy Kid, was released on March 19, 2010 and has grossed over $63 million at the Box Office in the USA, and the novel has sold over 28 million copies. That film hits the big screen in the UK on August 27, 2010.

The upcoming second live-action adaptation is about Greg Heffley, his older brother Rodrick, and the school talent show. If the film does well at the box office, it is likely 20th Century Fox will continue the series. Here is a list of Kinney's Diary of a Wimpy Kid novels:

● Diary of a Wimpy Kid
● Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules
● Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Last Straw
● Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days

There is also a "Do It Yourself" activities book, and a "The Wimpy Kid Movie Diary" which is a movie tie-in book about the making of the first Diary of a Wimpy Kid movie.

David Bowers, who is known for directing animated films such as Flushed Away and Astro Boy, has signed on to direct. This will be Bowers first live action movie.

Rodrick Rules will begin shooting in August, 2010 in Vancouver, and has a release date set for March 25, 2011.
