Clark Kent really did almost come along in Green Lantern , and The Hobbit bring some awesome newfangled cast phallus . The Spider - Man reboot has begun filming in 3D , and Jon Favreau peach about what The Magic Kingdom will and wo n’t be . despoiler !
Green Lantern
Writer Marc Guggenheim gush about the picture show , croak so far as to equate Peter Sarsgaard ’s carrying out as Hector Hammond to Heath Ledger ’s work as the Joker , which is pretty much the single boldest compare you may make when talk about superhero pic baddie . He also weigh in on the talk of a Superman – or , more accurately , Clark Kent – cameo that was in early drafts of the film :
“ Without try very hard , you could probably find the leak hand on the net . [ The Superman cameo ] is in the leaked book . It survived several drafts . Ultimately , it was geld for budgetary reasons . We took it out in one of our later drafts … The Clark Kent cameo is still close and dear to my heart . I really wanted it to be in the picture , ” he added , only to jest , “ You never have it away – it can still happen . If Tom Welling has a free hour or two , you never do it . ”
As for the more obscure lantern , it pay to be the front-runner of director Martin Campbell . Ch’p , regrettably , was n’t one of those :
“ I can pretty much hope that Ch’p will not be in the movie . Martin ’s favorite Lantern , who is in the movie , is Bzzd . The amusing matter is , from our very first meeting with Martin , he came onto the project and really jazz his stuff . He was able to quote Lanterns and articulate ‘ I eff Bzzd ’ from the start . I was like , ‘ Okay , I gauge Bzzd is in the movie . ' ”

The Magic Kingdom
Jon Favreau talked about this film about a kinsfolk getting ensnare in a real - life version of Disneyland , paint a picture he ’s putting a good deal of employment and inquiry into it and that it wo n’t just be a crossover voter - laden mess :
“ I do n’t think it ’s go to be mixing all the other movies . I retrieve it ’s going to be its own affair ; I do n’t think it will be like Night at the Museum . I require to make it a little number nervous like the sometime Disney movies were and attempt to really becharm that tone .
This is something that I ’ve always been pull to and now to say ‘ What characters do you want to use and how do you not make it Space Jam or like the Christmas parade with every character ? ’ How do you show constraint and how do you make it tie into the emotional exploitation of the characters ? ”
I ’m shocked that he does n’t think Space Jam is the model for any smashing moving-picture show , but mediocre enough . He suggest the flick really is focused on telling a history about the park itself , instead of just randomly trot out every Disney place ( which , confessedly , is sort of the whole point of the Magic Kingdom in the first place ):
“ [ The taradiddle for Magic Kingdom ] is basically a folk caught in Disneyland , bringing all of the attractive force to life . I really want to plumb the depths of the chronicle of the park because it ’s a plaza I have a go at it to go a few time a class . ”
There ’s a portion more at the tie-in . [ Screenrant ]

I Am Number Four
Star Alex Pettyfer says his favorite part of the movie was getting to blow up a football stadium :
I would go blow up the football sports stadium again ! I had so much fun running around . It ’s so crazy , it ’s like being twenty class old but still dreaming about going into the back garden and play action hero . You go on this monolithic American football game field and have to use your imagination .
The first shot we had , we run out of the burrow onto the field and there are [ creatures ] jumping down at you and people are shooting at you and the terra firma is burst . It ’s so disturbed , all the thing you have to imagine happen and then you see the lagger and part of the moving-picture show and it all comes to life .

Wrath of the Titans
Liam Neeson confirm that he will be back as Zeus in the Clash of the Titans continuation , and that the movie will have “ some kick - ass material and a very human narrative to it . ” I bump it profoundly amusing to think Liam Neeson actually tell those words .

Dr. Who
Steven Moffat gave another inscrutable variation on what dwell forrader for series six :
secretiveness will fall ! River Song will , at long last , infix herself . The straight nature of the kinship of Amy Pond and her Doctor will be uncover .
I ’d say the major takeaway here is that Moffat ’s wording strongly implies we ’re travel to see River Song ’s first meeting with the Doctor from her perspective . I remember that ’s been mooted previously , but consider this an supernumerary bit of grounds for that . [ Life , the Universe , and Combom ]
The Walking Dead
Robert Kirkman revealed a couple cryptic hints about just what Dr. Jenner whisper in Rick ’s ear :
I do n’t desire to give anything away ! Look , it could have been just like , “ Hey , catch out for those zombies out there , dude ! ” But it was n’t . It ’ll probably be unwrap in season two , what he tell . And it ’s pretty monumental .

The original report for this comes from a situation that gets very canonic details about the show wrong ( show creator Andrew Lincoln ? ) , so I ’m a little dubious about this . But Charlie Sheen is supposedly going to have a cameo in the next time of year as a zombie . One would assume he ’ll be buried under enough war paint to make him more or less unrecognizable , although I do find the idea of the entire show briefly stopping in its lead for the characters to realise a zombified Charlie Sheen so delightfully terrible that I ’d kind of like to see it . This is all happening because Sheen is supposedly a huge fan of the show , and the report indicates this could go a miniskirt - trend of other name worker appearing as living dead extras .
