Story:
About two childhood best friends, Chet and Will, who have a deep falling out one night over drinks when Will confesses his love for Chet's sister Kate. Chet, a school teacher and the more successful of the two, gets upset and says things he regrets and Wayne, down and out and miserable because Kate is moving away — his secret lifelong crush all these years — also drops a litany of terrible history that should have remained unspoken. Their friendship would be irrevocably broken, if fate didn't intervene. Across town, two stupid, whitetrash would-be-hoods Dwayne and his sycophant friend Jay are plotting to have Dwayne's rich father killed so they can reap the inheritance. But they need to pay someone to do the deed, so they hatch a wild plan, based on Jay's backwoods skills; make a bomb, strap it to some unlucky soul and force him to rob a bank so they can pay their hitman. Will of course becomes that unfortunate sap and soon he's begging Chet to help him race against time. He's got eight hours to deliver the money before the bomb strapped to his chest goes off.

Warner Bros. Pictures casting actors for Catherine Hardwicke film Red Riding Hood
Warner Bros. Pictures is in pre-production on the upcoming feature film Red Riding Hood starring Amanda Seyfried. The film is being produced by Leonardo DiCaprio and will be directed by Catherine Hardwicke. Hardwicke is best known for directing "Twilight", which was the last feature film she directed. She has a penchant for discovering new talent and this film may be no exception. Hardwicke has already cast two unknowns for lead roles in Red Riding Hood - Shiloh Fernandez and Max Irons.
Red Riding Hood is a thriller that centers on a medieval town that’s been terrorized by a werewolf for generations. Seyfried’s character Valerie is at the center of a love triangle and is a free spirit who often runs counter to her fearful family and town.
Shooting will take place in the Vancouver, BC area from July 21, 2010 through September 16, 2010. The film's scheduled release date is April 22, 2011.

Story:
A contemporary story of an international five-ship fleet engaged in a very dynamic, violent and intense battle against an alien race is known as The Regents. They come from a world similar to ours, and aren’t actually looking to take over humanity or the planet Earth. Instead, they’re on a mission to build a power source in the ocean, which is where they come in contact with a navy fleet. The film will also show us both sides of the story—from the aliens’ perspective, as well as the humans.
