Wed 22 Feb 4:00pm,Guillermo del Toro will produce CG-animated movie 'Day of the Dead'
The 'Pan's Labyrinth' director joins Aaron Berger and Carina Schulze of Chatrone Inc. in the Reel FX venture, described as a tragic Romeo & Juliet-style love story that takes place during Mexican holiday Day of the Dead.
The script was penned by animated TV show writer Doug Langdale and co-creator of Nickelodeon's 'El Tigre: The Adventures of Manny Rivera', Jorge R. Gutierrez. Gutierrez is also set to direct the feature.
The film, due for release in late 2014, marks Guadalajara Jalisco native Del Toro's first involvement in a Mexican feature since 'Cronos' in 1993. In recent years, his signature style - mixing fables with horror, history and fantasy - has made him one of the most in demand directors in Hollywood.
Having stepped down from his role in producing the film adaptation of 'The Hobbit', Del Toro is currently working on sci-fi blockbuster 'Pacific Rim' for Legendary Pictures. The apocalyptic action film, due for release in May next year, stars 'The Wire's Idris Elba in his first lead role.

Wed 22 Feb 10:00am,Sam Mendes' previous directorial experience has been an ''apprenticeship'' to making 'Skyfall'.
The 46-year-old filmmaker - who has previously made movies including 'American Beauty' and 'Jarhead' - is having his first experience of making a British film with the new instalment of James Bond, starring Daniel Craig and Naomie Harris, and he admits it feels like he has completed a course in directing and can now enjoy the fruits of his learning.
In a video blog posted on the official James Bond site, Sam said: ''I've never made an English movie. I've made six movies and this is the first time I've shot in this country, which is an extraordinary thing.
''So I feel like the American years were my apprenticeship for doing the Bond movie.''
Also seen in the video are shooting locations in the UK including outside Westminster Underground station and at an airport.
'Skyfall' is believed to have suffered budgetary issues meaning many of the planned foreign trips had to be cut in favour of a more local shoot.
The 23rd instalment in the James Bond franchise is set to be released later this year.

Wed 22 Feb 10:00am,Josh Duhamel will star in 'Scenic Route'.
The 'Life As We Know It' actor is set to team up with Dan Fogler in the movie about two former college friends who become stranded in the desert while on a road trip. As they worry rescuers will never come, they begin to have heated physical and emotional fights.
The movie has been written by 'The Beaver's Kyle Killen while Kevin and Michael Goetz will direct.
Meanwhile, Josh has previously revealed he won't be reprising his role as Captain William Lenno in 'Transformers 4' and says the rest of the cast have no plans to return.
He said: ''I don't think anybody's doing it. I know Shia [LaBeouf] is not doing it. I don't think Tyrese [Gibson] or Rosie [Huntington-Whiteley] or anybody else is doing it. .
''Whenever these movies make that much money, they are going to make as many as they can. But I haven't heard anything about it. They haven't called me.
'Transformers 4' is due to be released in June 2014 with action star Jason Statham rumoured to be the new lead and plans being made for a second trilogy of films.

Wed 22 Feb 6:00am,Jennifer Aniston runs on adrenaline when she has to do nude scenes.
The 'Horrible Bosses' star - who appears naked in new romantic comedy 'Wanderlust', in which she stars as a woman who decides to quit her life and head to a naked colony - admits she does suffer from nerves ahead of a nude shoot but quickly adapted when it came to it.
She said: ''There was a little bit of nerves, but adrenaline takes you through it. And then, you have the girls come in and cover you up, immediately.''
The movie was filmed at a colony for nudist people, and Jennifer - who is currently dating actor Justin Theroux - reveals she quickly became unaware of people around her with no clothes on.
She added to Collider.com: ''I got very comfortable with seeing nude people, pretty much immediately. Shockingly, it was bizarre how at ease we became with having a bunch of naked people everywhere.''
''It was very bizarre, to know that these were actually nudists and [to see] how comfortable they are being nude. [But] then there would be the ones that you could tell were not the authentic nudists because they were groomed. You could spot the fakes.''

Wed 22 Feb 6:00am,Tom Wilkinson signed up for 'Mission:Impossible - Ghost Protocol' for the money.
The British actor stars as the secretary of the fictional independent espionage agency Impossible Missions Force (IMF) in the Brad Bird directed movie and revealed he took on the role for the money and because he likes the film's leading man Tom Cruise.
He said: ''To be honest the pay was too good to turn down and I liked Tom Cruise, I've worked with him a couple of times and I've got to know his wife and him the year before really quite well as I done a television programme with his wife, and I've worked with him and he wanted me to come over and do it. I was quite happy to do that.''
Tom also revealed he has cut back on the movie roles he takes in recent years and now only signs up to a movie he thinks will be fun.
The 'Best Exotic Marigold Hotel' star said: ''This past year I only had three, two really small roles and one just a couple of days work on Mission Impossible movie.
''I just look at it and think can I do this? Would it be fun to do, the answer is generally yes, if it is yes then you think I'll do it.''

Tue 21 Feb 4:00pm,Amanda Seyfried thinks 'Lovelace' will ''turn the tables'' on what people think of Linda Lovelace.
The 'Mamma Mia!' actress plays the lead protagonist in the forthcoming biopic - which also stars James Franco and Sarah Jessica Parker - and she admits she was shocked to find out the back-story to the star, who is best known for her role in 'Deep Throat'.
She told Buzzinefilm.com: ''She was forced into everything! She was forced into pornography. 'Deep Throat' for her was really just an escape from her husband.
''There's so much about her that no one knows. Unless you read her autobiography, you wouldn't know. So we're turning the tables on what the public thinks - on what their idea of her is - and it's gonna be interesting.''
The 'In Time' actress reveals it is the first time she has played a real person, and it was quite different for her on set.
She said: ''It's completely different. I've never played a person who's actually existed, and that can be really tough - trying to capture someone's essence like that, and validate their story, and tell it in the way they would want you to tell it. It was such a whirlwind but the most rewarding experience of my life, for sure.''

Tue 21 Feb 4:00pm,Orlando Bloom is set to star in 'Zulu'.
The 'Lord of the Rings' actor has signed up to appear alongside Djimon Hounsou in Jerome Salle's film, which is an adaptation of Caryl Ferey's novel, set in post-Apartheid South Africa.
Bloom and Hounsou will play a pair of South African policeman who investigate crimes including the murder of 18-year-old Nicole Wiese, the daughter of a championship Springbok rugby player, leading to a dark series of events.
'Zulu' - which is not to be confused with the Sir Michael Caine classic - is set to start filming in Cape Town this July.
Bloom - who is currently filming 'The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey' - was last seen on the big screen in 2011's 'Three Musketeers'.
The British actor played the Duke of Buckingham in the movie and said he based his character on music icon David Bowie.
He said: ''I didn't like the idea of wearing a wig, but I wanted to have a hairstyle that would lend itself to the period. I love Teddy Boys, so that's where the quiff came from. My hair was brushed up and sprayed.
''Paul [W.S. Anderson, director] wanted us to play the characters as rock stars of our generation, and mine was Bowie. Buckingham has the swagger of Ziggy Stardust and wears outrageous costumes. In my opinion, you have to own those costumes, otherwise they wear you - and then you run the risk of looking like a big tomato.''

Tue 21 Feb 10:00am,'Kick-Ass 2' is set to shoot this summer.
Mark Millar - who created the story about a boy who decides to become a super-hero - has confirmed a second story is expected to go into production later this year, and has hinted Matthew Vaughn will also be working on the project, although it is not known in what capacity.
He said: ''We shoot 'Kick-Ass 2' and 'American Jesus' this summer. Then Matthew and I have 'Secret Service', which is a neddy James Bond.''
As yet the film does not have an attached director or stars and studio Lionsgate has made no comment about its production.
Jane Goldman, who wrote the screenplay for the first movie, admits she was ''amazed'' at the response Chloe Moretz - who played foul-mouthed 11-year-old assassin Hit Girl - had for the part.
She said: ''We didn't set out to shock, we just wanted to tell a good story.
''I was a little bit amazed that the Americans were more offended by the C-word than by the fact Hit-Girl was cutting people's legs off.''
'Kick-Ass' - which starred Aaron Johnson as the titular hero - made $96 million worldwide on its release in 2010.

Tue 21 Feb 10:00am,Jim Caviezel has joined the cast of 'The Tomb'.
The 43-year-old actor - who starred as Jesus Christ in Mel Gibson's 'The Passion of the Christ' - will appear alongside Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone in the movie, producer Mark Canton has confirmed.
He told 'The Matthew Aaron Show': ''[Jim] Caviezel will be playing the role of the warden of the prison in which Schwarzenegger and Stallone attempt to escape from.''
The prison drama movie will see Sylvester portray the role of structural security expert and prison designer Ray Bresli, who is faced with the proposition of escaping from a jail he's designed, with Arnold set to play a prisoner called Church who helps other inmates to stay alive while they are incarcerated.
Mark recently admitted he is ''thrilled'' with the prospect of both Sylvester and Arnold - who both underwent shoulder surgery at the same hospital earlier this month after working together on 'The Expendables 2' - starring in the movie.
He explained: ''I am thrilled to be making 'The Tomb' with two film icons - Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger. It is the perfect pairing for this high octane thriller.''

Tue 21 Feb 6:00am,Adam Deacon was told he was ''too street'' by casting directors who couldn't understand his accent.
The actor - who was brought up in Hackney, north east London - found he came up ''against a wall'' after he first rose to fame in 'Kidulthood' because although he was wanted for film roles, some executives found him ''too scary''.
He said: ''When 'Kidulthood' came out, I remember walking down Oxford Street the next day and being bombarded by kids who wanted autographs. The schools were going mad for it, and maybe I was a bit naïve but I was thinking, 'The work's going to come in!'
''And of course, that never happened. Instead, we came up against this wall that seemed even higher than when we first started.
''Casting directors would tell me they wanted a street kid from an estate but their response was that I was 'too street'. My accent was too strong. I was too scary. And I found I was taken back a step. I was having to work even harder to prove I wasn't a thug than when I first started.''
However it has not stopped him from loving his local area, and he believes it is an untapped resource of potential films.
He added to The Observer: ''No, I love east London and I still want to write about young people here, but I don't understand why we can't now break out of this genre, and why we can't make a film about Notting Hill but also have a gang in it.''

Tue 21 Feb 6:00am,Dev Patel had to consume ''12 energy drinks a day'' while on the set of 'Best Exotic Marigold Hotel'.
The British actor stars alongside legends including Dame Judi Dench, Tom Wilkinson and Bill Nighy in the movie about a group of retirees who head to a recently done-up hotel in India, and he admits he struggled to keep up with the pace while filming.
He told BANG Showbiz: ''My energy had to be off the scale always, which is hard in that heat. I often got put to shame by the others in the movie. I was drinking like, 12 energy drinks a day just to keep it up, take after take. John the director just wanted more and more.
''I wish I had a tranquiliser on some scenes now!''
However the 21-year-old star's biggest worry was that his co-stars would think he was a ''crap'' actor.
He joked: ''The week before I got cast was the most terrifying experience of my life because like, I just thought they were going to see right through me. These guys have done so much work, their resumes are just solid. I thought they would see right through me and they'd just know I'm crap! And I got to set and I couldn't have been more wrong.''
'Best Exotic Marigold Hotel' will be released in the UK on Friday (24.02.12).

Mon 20 Feb 4:00pm,Warner Bros. has assigned Arash Amel to work on another instalment of Will Smith's 'I Am Legend'.
The movie studio is keen for Will to reprise the role of scientist Robert Neville for a prequel to the first film, which told the story of the last man on earth and grossed $585 million worldwide on its release in 2007.
The original movie was based on the book by Richard Matheson.
However, Will won't commit until the script is ready, with original director Francis Lawrence also not yet on board, Deadline.com reports.
Will has had a quiet few years in terms of starring roles, with his last big movie being 2008's 'Seven Pounds'.
He will next be seen reprising the role of Agent J in 'Men In Black III' alongside Josh Brolin, Emma Thompson and Tommy Lee Jones.
Despite stepping away from the spotlight as a leading star in recent years, Will has worked as a producer on both 'The Karate Kid' - which starred his son Jaden - and romantic comedy 'This Means War'.

Mon 20 Feb 4:00pm,Steve McQueen claims Michael Fassbender missed out on an Oscar nomination because Americans are too scared of sex.
McQueen directed the Irish actor in 'Shame' - in which he played a sex addict - and while it gained critical claim and a Best Actor BAFTA nomination for Fassbender, he was left off the Academy Awards list.
McQueen believes it because organisers and voters were afraid of the edgy subject matter.
He said: ''In America they're too scared of sex, that's why he wasn't nominated. If you look at the best actor list you're saying, 'Michael Fassbender is not on that list?'
''It's kind of crazy. But that's how it is, it's an American award, let them have it.''
McQueen - who directed Fassbender in 2008's 'Hunger' - admits he's in awe of how talented the 34-year-old star is and would work with him again.
He said: ''He's a once in a generation actor. He's an actor who can transform and transcend, and you actually believe him, so that's the kind of guy he is.
''It's all about the script, if Michael's the right person for the character and if he likes the script. What I like about our relationship is it's not tied, it's not a marriage, it's friendship and it's done out of respect of each other's talents and each other's love of film.''

Mon 20 Feb 10:00am,Woody Allen's 'Midnight in Paris' picked up Best Original Screenplay at the Writers Guild of America awards yesterday (19.02.12).

It beat competition from 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo', 'The Help', 'Hugo' and 'Moneyball'.
In the television category, 'Modern Family' won two awards for Best Comedy and Best Comedy Episode, as did critically-acclaimed 'Homeland'
'New Girl' star Zooey Deschanel, who was co-hosting the event at the Hollywood Palladium with Joel McHale, tried to make light of the geeky nature of writers when she opened the ceremony.

Mon 20 Feb 10:00am,Michael Fassbender is in line to star as a Celtic warrior in 'Irish Myths'.
The 'A Dangerous Method' actor looks set to play the lead role of Cuchulain, a central figure of the Irish mythology branch Ulster Myth Cycle, in the movie which 'Public Enemies' screenwriter Ronan Bennett has been working on since last year.
Michael and Ronan's production company Finn McCool Films will produce the movie, which will be based on Irish myth stories, but there is no director confirmed for the motion picture as yet, ScreenDaily.com reports.
The 34-year-old actor's latest work has seen him portray a New York office worker with an uncontrollable libido in sex addiction movie 'Shame', which he found to be ''pretty disturbing'' and he felt uncomfortable being nude for most of the film.
He recently explained: ''I had to lose weight for 'Hunger', but I had a timetable to stick to. But 'Shame' was pretty disturbing; the idea of what my character is about, the relationships, intimacy and how that's a difficult thing for some people.
''I don't feel comfortable parading around naked in what is essentially, at the beginning, a room full of strangers, but it had to be done. Besides, my imagination was much more devious than what was in the script.''

Mon 20 Feb 6:00am,Elizabeth Banks wanted her character in 'The Hunger Games' to be ''tortured'' by her clothing.
The 38-year-old actress - who plays Effie Trinket, a woman who originates from the fictional Capitol region but organises 'tributes' for a rival district, in the sci-fi action drama - was involved in designing her alter-ego's costumes, which are all deliberately ''uncomfortable''.
She said: ''Everything you see on Effie is purposeful, nothing is whimsical. As an ambassador for the Capitol I wanted to make it clear Effie is oppressed, so all her clothes are constricting, corseted uncomfortable.
''And I wear crazy shoes that you would never be able to spend a 12-hour day in - I wanted her to be tortured by her clothes.''
As well as her tight clothing, Elizabeth went through the pain barrier by sandpapering her skin and adding latex to make it look like her character had been under the knife for lots of plastic surgery.
She added to Total Film magazine: ''We sandpapered my skin. We wanted to show that Effie has a cracked veneer, that perfection doesn't exist in the Capitol - it's actually become hideous.
''We layered latex and used tricks of the camera and the lighting. I like to say I was a little fearless, definitely.''

Mon 20 Feb 6:00am,Billy Bob Thornton was ''so beaten up'' after he directed 'All the Pretty Horses'.
The 56-year-old actor - who won the Best Adapted Screenplay Oscar after he wrote and directed 'Sling Blade' in 1996 - admitted while his 2000 adaptation of the Cormac McCarthy novel was supposed to be a successful follow up, he ended up being ''so disappointed'' with the finished film and it almost put him off directing for good.
He said: ''I was so beaten up over that experience, and so disappointed, that I didn't want to have that happen again until I was in a position that my original vision could be seen by people.''
Billy Bob didn't realise how ''little control'' he would have over the finished version of 'All the Pretty Horses', which resulted in a third of the movie's running time being cut and Daniel Lanois' original score being dropped.
Billy Bob added: ''I didn't realise how little control you have over what the finished thing is. So if you say: here's and epic movie about the end of the west, and we'll take 42 minutes of essential stuff out so it can be under two hours to get more screenings in theatres.
''And advertise it as a love story, which it wasn't. And then to take Daniel Lanois' haunting score out of it, because it was too sparse.''

Sun 19 Feb 10:00am,Naomie Harris' 'Skyfall' character sees herself as ''a female Bond''.
The British actress plays mysterious Eve in the forthcoming James Bond movie and though details about the film are being kept under wraps, she says her alter ego is a match for the iconic spy.
She said: ''My character would like to see herself as a female bond but I don't think anyone's really a match for Bond.''
Naomie refused to give much away about her character but she has been heavily involved in action training and using guns.
She added: ''I kickbox and do a lot with guns. I started off terrified by the sound of a gun let alone having any idea how to hold one but now I really enjoy it.
''I started off yoga and running and I've also been doing stunt training and gyrotonics three times a week.''
'Skyfall' - which sees Daniel Craig play James bond for the third time - is released in cinemas in October.

Sun 19 Feb 6:00am,Lily Collins thought she was the victim of a prank when she was offered the lead role in 'Mirror, Mirror'.
The 22-year-old actress admits she was initially ''angry'' when she received a call asking her to play Princess Snow White - the biggest part she has ever had - because she was convinced it was a joke being played at her expense, and became overwhelmed with emotion when she realised the offer was genuine.
She said: ''It was April Fool's Day, so when I got the phone call I thought someone was playing a prank on me.
''I was quite angry and thought, 'If this is someone's idea of a joke, it's not funny.' But then, when I realised it was true, I burst into tears and started screaming. It's the role of a lifetime.''
Lily - who is the daughter of musician Phil Collins and his second wife Jill Tavelman - has always wanted to be an actress but felt it was important to complete her education before embarking on her chosen career path.
She told Hello! magazine: ''I could have started earlier than I did bu I wanted to wait until I'd finished high school because I wanted to be ready, mentally and emotionally, to take on the rejection side of this business.
''You get told 'no' so many times that if you are the sort of person who takes 'no' as a deterrent, then maybe this isn't the right profession to be in.
''I've always been driven, which I think is something I've inherited from both my parents and I wanted to put off my career until I felt ready to face all the nos.''

Sat 18 Feb 10:00am,Hugh Grant is ''s**t'' at portraying ''dark'' emotions on film.
The 51-year-old actor is best known for his work in romantic comedies such as 'Four Weddings and a Funeral' and 'Bridget Jones' Diary' and while he thinks it is important for all films to have an emotional connection, he doesn't want to venture into more series dramas.
He said: ''It's not that I want to play these deep, dark emotions. I'm pretty s**t at that. But if you're making a film that lasts 90 minutes, you're in trouble if there isn't some heart or bottle.
''It can be funny for 20-25 minutes if it's TV but take the 'Airplane!' films. I p***ed myself for 25 minutes but then you get exhausted because there's nothing happening that isn't jokes. You've got to be emotionally involved.
''Comedy is always funnier and richer when it's dealing with pain.''
Hugh feels he is ''to blame'' for his typecasting as a bumbling English gentleman because the success of 1994's 'Four Weddings and a Funeral' made him feel that was what people wanted to see from him.
He told Total Film magazine: ''Typecasting is partly my fault. I signed up to a few films before 'Four Weddings', two or three of which had diffident Englishmen parts and I didn't sign out of doing those films after I became successful.
''So it's partly to my credit, fulfilling my obligations, but it's also to my discredit that my sudden success with 'four Weddings' made me think, 'Oh everyone likes me being that bumbly person' and that bled into my real life.
''I look back at some of the interviews I did in America in those years and I wince. I think, 'What the f**k were you doing that for you t****r?'
''So it's likely that I'm to blame for some of the deep rut of typecasting I fell into at that point.''

Sat 18 Feb 6:00am,Lily Collins hated the costumes she wore in 'Mirror, Mirror'.
The 22-year-old actress plays Princess Snow White in the re-imagining of the classic fairytale and while she has enjoyed working on the movie, she has struggled with the tight-fitting garments worn by her character.
She said: ''I'm loving everything about this film but wearing the costumes. Don't get me wrong, they're amazing costumes - the details and colours are absolutely phenomenal and they definitely make me feel like a princess - but they are also very heavy and quite difficult to wear.
''It's hard to eat wearing the corsets. And as for dancing, running, doing stunts and having sword fights... Well, it all adds to the challenge.''
Lily stars in the film opposite Julia Roberts - who plays the wicked queen - and was thrilled to act alongside one of her acting heroines, particularly as she was so ''nice'' to her.
She told Hello! magazine: ''It's a dream come true to be acting with Julia. And it's quite interesting too, because in the beginning of the film I'm supposed to be intimidated by her character and while we were filming she'd be really mean to me.
''Then when the director would yell cut, she'd come straight over to me and say, 'I'm so sorry. I hope I didn't hurt your feelings. Are you OK? She's the sweetest woman.
''Meanwhile, I'm staring at her and thinking, 'Oh my gosh, this is Julia Roberts. Is this really happening?''

Fri 17 Feb 4:00pm,Anna Friel has joined the cast of 'The King of Soho'.
The 'Pushing Daisies' star is one of three actresses to sign up for the comedy drama - a biopic of porn publisher and club owner Paul Raymond - with 'Chalet Girl' beauty Tamsin Egerton and Filth's Imogen Poots also on board.
Steve Coogan will play the lead character, with Anna starring as his wife, Tamsin his glamour model girlfriend and Imogen as his beloved daughter.
Michael Winterbottom - who previously worked with Steve on 'The Trip', Tristram Shandy: A Cock And Bull Story, and '24 Hour Party People' - is directing the movie from a script penned by 'Control' and 'Nowhere Boy' writer Matt Greenhalgh.
The director said in a statement: '''The King of Soho' chronicles the colourful life and times of Paul Raymond, who began his career on stage as an end-of-the-pier mind-reader and ended his life the richest man in Britain. It's the perfect role for Steve Coogan and it is great we have Anna Friel, Tamsin Egerton and Imogen Poots playing the three most important women in his life.''
Paul died in 2008 aged 82.

Fri 17 Feb 4:00pm,Danny Dyer loved playing a murderer in his new film because it was such a departure from his normal roles.
The British actor is famous for his gangster and hardman roles in movies such 'The Football Factory', 'The Business' and 'Dead Man Running' but in 'Deviation' he plays Frankie Norton - a dangerous psychopath who escapes from jail and car-jacks young nurse Amber (Anna Walton) and takes her hostage to help him escape from the UK.
He loved getting to grips with the dark character because they were so many layers to Frankie's personality.
Danny exclusively told BANG Showbiz: ''I didn't want to play him obvious and just play him nasty. I wanted you to see that there are different layers to him. It was a really interesting character to play. I could be as weird as I wanted because he's a bit of a schizophrenic and there's moments when he's laughing and then he just snaps.
''It's such a fun character to play because you can go where you want with it. You haven't got to worry about over acting. It was a tough job but I loved it.''
The 34-year-old actor worked with director J.K. Amalou on 'Deviation' - which is released in cinemas on February 24 and it is available to buy on DVD from February 27 - and has revealed he has more projects lined-up with the filmmaker.
Danny said: ''We're going to do another movie together called 'Deceit' and that's, like, a sort of horror movie. I can't give too much away about it but we're going to start shooting that in April. He wants to do three films with me. It all depends on the success of 'Deviation' really. We've got a lot riding on it. But I'm really proud of it and if anything it's a good piece of entertainment. There's no chance to get bored watching it.''

Fri 17 Feb 10:00am,Sienna Miller has joined the cast of 'A Case Of You'.
The 30-year-old actress - who is expecting her first child with fiance Tom Sturridge in June - and Brendan Fraser have been added to the line-up of the romantic comedy, which has started filming in New York.
Justin Long will also star in the film - which Evan Rachel Wood, Vince Vaughn and Peter Dinklage are attached to - and he has co-written the script alongside his younger brother Christian and Keir O'Donnell, Variety reports.
The movie tells the story of a young writer who impresses a girl by making up an online profile, but he is forced to try to keep up the act when she falls in love with him.
One of Sienna's last starring roles was in 2009 action film 'G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra' - which saw her play Ana Lewis - but the blonde beauty has ruled out of being in a sequel to the motion picture because she thinks it made her ''comprise'' herself.
She previously explained: ''I think I compromised myself with that movie. It wasn't the kind of film I would like to see and it sort of made me evaluate why I'm doing this.
''I realised that unless it was a film I really loved, I didn't want to be away working. Because I'm getting to the stage where I want to work to live, not live to work, if you see what I mean. I don't want to a film that I wouldn't even go to see.''

Fri 17 Feb 10:00am,Gael Garcia Bernal is to play Zorro in a new re-imagining of the franchise.
The 'Motorcycle Diaries' actor will play the Spanish swordsman as a masked vigilante on the hunt for revenge in 'Zorro Reborn', which is described as having Western themes and a ''futuristic reboot'' of the story.
Unlike previous movies, it will not be set in California or Mexico, but a ruined ''world of tomorrow''.
Studio 20th Century Fox are still seeking a director for the project, which has been written by Glenn Gers, Lee Shipman and Brian McGreevy.
The character of Zorro was last seen in 'The Legend of Zorro' in 2005 - the second time Antonio Banderas portrayed the secret swashbuckler.
Sony, who released 'The Mask of Zorro' and 'The Legend of Zorro', are currently working on their own film about the character.
They are developing an origin story based on Isabel Allende's 2005 novel 'Zorro'.
Gael can next be seen opposite Will Ferrell in Spanish-language comedy 'Casa de mi Padre' and with Kate Hudson in 'A Little Bit of Heaven'.

Fri 17 Feb 6:00am,Hugh Grant wants the 'Bridget Jones' Diary' franchise to be ''significantly reinvented'' before he signs on for another movie.
Plans are underway for a third film in the series but the actor - who played Daniel Cleaver in the earlier movies - insists he and co-stars Colin Firth and Renee Zellweger have not yet agreed to appear.
He said: ''I did like playing Daniel Cleaver, but there is no definite part three. None of the three of us have signed up yet.
''There's been a number of drafts that have had great things in them but haven't quite hit the bullseye.
''But they're working on it again now with yet another writer, as soon as they get to a good point we will do it, I'm sure. It's just that it does have to be significantly reinvented.''
Hugh believes the third movie will have to be set some time after the last sequel - 2004's 'Bridget Jones' Diary: The Edge of Reason' - because he and his co-stars look ''f***ing ancient''.
He added in an interview with Total Film magazine: ''I don't think you could pretend that it's a year after the end of the last one because we look f***ing ancient now, all three of us.''

Fri 17 Feb 6:00am,Tom Hanks had a ''wonderful'' time working with Sandra Bullock.
The pair star together in 'Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close' and forged an instant bond as soon as they met up to discuss the script.
He said: ''Sandra Bullock, I'd met her at award shows and things like that before briefly, but the very first thing we did in rehearsals was that Sandra, Thomas [Horn, who plays their son] and I made lunch, we got together and just made lunch, for the three of us. We made some spaghetti, salad, garlic bread and what not.
''And I could not discern any true effort between that day of rehearsal, months before we started making the movie, and the moments where we were actually working with a camera rolling. It's so fluid with her. She is wonderful.''
Tom was also full of praise for his young co-star, saying Thomas, 13, was very impressive at tackling such a complex film.
He told website FlicksandBits: ''He's the star of 'Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close,' he had to show up for rehearsals, for coaching, for research, or for actually shooting the movie - at what could be described as a back breaking schedule.
''But he had such unbridled enthusiasm for every moment of that, and that's a testament to a certain degree of character. He was pretty spectacular.''

Thu 16 Feb 4:00pm,Rihanna was a ''natural'' in 'Battleship'.
The pop singer makes her movie debut in the forthcoming summer blockbuster alongside Taylor Kitsch and Brooklyn Decker and director Peter Berg was delighted with her performance.
He said: ''She was great. She has a very strong part.
''I was surprised no one had ever thought to hire Rihanna. I was a huge fan of her videos. Obviously she's sexy, but she had this real intensity. I'm like, 'Someone's going to get her.' ''
Peter was most impressed by Rihanna's attitude and willingness to learn when they first met to discuss the movie.
He told MTV News: ''When I met with her, she came in a T-shirt and jeans, no makeup, very natural. She was like, 'Look, I want to be an actress. Don't kiss my ass. Don't lie to me. Push me. Treat me as you would any other actor. Help make me good.' She is really, really good in 'Battleship.' ''
The filmmaker also admitted he is a fan of seeing singers and musicians making the transition to acting.
He said: ''I've always believed in musicians as actors. I had great success with Tim McGraw in 'Friday Night Lights' and 'The Kingdom.' Musicians have been acting since Frank Sinatra won an Oscar for 'From Here to Eternity'.
''Barbra Streisand, Kris Kristofferson, the late Whitney Houston, I thought, was tremendous in 'The Bodyguard.' As recently as Mariah Carey in 'Precious,' she was great.''

Thu 16 Feb 4:00pm,Dwayne Johnson has revealed plans to film 'Fast & Furious 6' and its sequel back-to-back have been scrapped.
The action star - who also wrestles in the WWE as The Rock - is reprising his role as US Marshall Luke Hobbs in the two movies but producers have changed their mind about shooting them at the same time.
He told MTV News: ''We were going to try shooting them together. It would make sense while we have the same crew and everybody in one place. But I think we're dealing with some weather issues, so from what I know we're going to shoot 'Fast 6' first, and then worry about 'Fast 7' a little later.''
Dwayne - who can currently be seen in 'Journey 2: The Mysterious Island' - also revealed the car chase films are going to be set in Europe.
He added: ''We're going to be in the UK and we're going to be in Germany.''
However, the 39-year-old actor did not reveal which movie is set in which country.
Shooting on 'Fast & Furious 6' - will will also see Vin Diesel return as as Dominic Toretto - will begin in May.
Dwayne - who is due to compete against John Cena at WrestleMania XXVIII on April 1 - has just finished shooting 'GI Joe: Retaliation'.

Thu 16 Feb 10:00am,Jennifer Aniston and Dennis Quaid are in talks to join the cast of 'The Switch'.
The 'Wanderlust' actress - who previously starred in a movie with the same name alongside Jason Bateman - is up for the role of Mickey Dawson, while the 'Words' actor would be her crooked real estate developer husband.
The films sees Mickey kidnapped and held to ransom by two ex-prisoners - who will be played by John Hawkes and Yasiin Bay- but her husband seizes the opportunity to get rid of his wife and refuses to pay up.
This leads the kidnappers to try something new - teaming up with their hostage to get all of her husband's money.
'Modern Family' actor Ty Burrell is also part of the movie, playing Marshall Taylor, a married country club member who has a crush on Mickey and sees her get kidnapped -but can't decide whether to act.
The film is based on Elmore Leonard's novel 'The Switch' and the kidnappers Louis Gara and Ordell Robbie, appeared in one of the author's earlier books, 'Rum Punch' - the basis of Quentin Tarantino movie 'Jackie Brown' - but are not otherwise connected.
The two characters were played in 'Jackie Brown' by Robert De Niro and Samuel L. Jackson.
Dan Schechter is directing the movie.

Thu 16 Feb 10:00am,Forest Whitaker is set to play Archbishop Desmond Tutu in 'The Archbishop and the Antichrist'.
The Oscar-winning actor is set to take on the role of South African activist - who was the first black South African Archbishop of Cape Town - in Roland Joffe's film, which is adapted from Michael Ashton's play.
The film sees Tutu in a fictional story about the archbishop meeting a bigoted South African mass murderer called Piet Blomfeld, who says he's seeking redemption. The plot is set during Tutu's work with the country's Truth and Reconciliation hearings.
No one has yet been cast to portray Blomfeld and the film doesn't have a shooting date.
Joffe is also busy setting up 'In God We Trust', which he describes as ''a thriller about stealing a country, manipulating money but also about the desire to kill your parents - sometimes those things go together''.
However, Joffe is currently working on romantic drama 'Singularity', which features Josh Hartnett and Neve Campbell, and he is hoping to complete it be the end of the year.

Thu 16 Feb 6:00am,Billy Bob Thornton is to star in a 'Bad Santa' sequel.
The actor has revealed plans for a follow-up to the dark comedy - in which he played alcoholic crook Willie T. Stokes, who works as a mall Santa every December - are well underway and a script has already been written.
Speaking at the Berlin Film Festival - where he is promoting 'Jane Mansfield's Car', which he directed - he said: ''The writer is still working on the script, he's doing his rewrite right now. We saw the first draft and we just had a few little things we wanted to take away or add and he's doing that.''
Thornton also revealed the movie has a Christmas 2013 release date pencilled in.
No director is currently attached to the project.
Meanwhile, Thornton is making a movie based on his failed marriage to Angelina Jolie.
He is to co-write and direct road movie 'And Then We Drove' which will have parallels to his union to the screen beauty which ended in June 2002 after two years.

Thu 16 Feb 6:00am,Sir Michael Caine was scared he would be bitten by a snack before shooting 'Journey 2: The Mysterious Island' in Hawaii.
The screen legend was nervous the local wildlife wouldn't be very hospitable on the island of Oahu before he and his castmates flew to the tropical location, but luckily he didn't encounter any snakes on location.
He said: ''It was hot and humid filming there, but I didn't mind it all, because I prefer the heat to the snow. I was more concerned about the snakes and insects, but there were no snakes and no insects, and I didn't get bitten once by a mosquito.''
Caine is part of a big name cast that star in the 3-D adventure movie, including Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson, Kristin Davis and Vanessa Hudgens.
The 78-year-old actor - who can soon be seen in Batman sequel 'The Dark Knight Rises' - most enjoyed the scenes where his character Alexander Anderson clashes with Dwayne's alter-ego Hank Parsons because he can't imagine too many people would take on the huge wrestler.
In an interview with the Vancouver Sun newspaper, he revealed: ''I have a few belligerent scenes with Dwayne's character, which is always good for a laugh, because he looks like nobody would dare have a sharp tongue with him. But Dwayne was very nice, and I said, 'Dwayne can afford to be nice, because nobody would ever think of being nasty to him.' ''

Wed 15 Feb 4:00pm,Jonny Lee Miller has been cast in a new 'Sherlock Holmes' project.
The actor is to play the fictional British detective - created by author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in the 19th century - in CBS pilot 'Elementary' and if it proves to be successful a full series will be commissioned.
The show - named after the character's famous catchphrase - will see Holmes leave his traditional 221b Baker Street home in London to solve mysteries in New York.
By coincidence his friend Benedict Cumberbatch - who he starred with in Danny Boyle's theatre production of 'Frankenstein' - plays the detective in BAFTA Award-winning BBC series 'Sherlock', which is set in modern times.
Robert Doherty - who has worked on 'Medium' and 'Star Trek: Voyager' - is lined up to write show, which will air in late 2012 if it gets the green light.
In recent years, Sherlock Holmes has seen a huge resurgence in popularity.
As well as the TV series starring Cumberbatch, Guy Ritchie has also brought the character back to life on the big screen with Robert Downey Jr. portraying Holmes and Jude Law playing his trusty sidekick Dr. John Watson in their traditional historical setting.

Wed 15 Feb 4:00pm,Billy Bob Thornton is making a film based on his failed marriage to Angelina Jolie.
The actor-and-director is to co-write and direct road movie 'And Then We Drove' which will have parallels to his union to the screen beauty, according to Variety.
Billy Bob, 56, has revealed the project is about ''a guy who's on a road trip and picks up this girl along the way, and what happens to them. It's about the question of life, 'What is this? Where do I fit in?' ''
'And Then We Drove' producer Alexander Rodnyansky has confirmed the film is partly inspired by the couple's well-documented relationship.
Angelina - who now raises six children with her long-term partner Brad Pitt - tied the knot with Billy Bob in Las Vegas in 2000, after first meeting him when they starred in 'Pushing Tin' together.
Their union ended in June 2002 but when they were together they were known for their bizarre behaviour around each other and eccentric displays of affection, including each of them wearing a small vial of the other's blood around their necks.

Wed 15 Feb 10:00am,Nicolas Cage's performance in 'Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengence' was inspired by hypnotising cobras.
The actor returns as stunt biker Johnny Blaze and his flaming skulled alter-ego in the superhero sequel and he remembered the movements of the venomous snakes he once kept as pets when deciding how to bring his occult character to life on the big screen.
Speaking at a press conference for the Marvel movie, he said: ''At one point in my neighbourhood I had a couple of them (cobras). Then the neighbours didn't like it so I gave them to a zoo. But I would study these cobras and what they would do is move back and forth in a rhythmic motion and on the back of the snake was the pattern of an eye, like an occult eye, and it would try to hypnotise me and when it felt it had hypnotised me, it would strike. So I thought, 'Why doesn't the Ghost Rider move like that, with that sort of hypnotic, rhythmic motion?' ''
Venomous snaked weren't the only thing that inspired Cage on set, He also got an idea for Ghost Rider to levitate before attacking from a Trent Reznor video.
The 48-year-old star added: ''There was something I saw in a Trent Reznor video, where he was levitating and revolving in circles, so I said, 'Why don't we have the Ghost Rider levitate and revolve in circles.' We called it ''the compass'' where he would find his next victim and then attack. So a lot of thought went into it and a lot of imagination and improvisation.''
Idris Elba and Christopher Lambert also star in the film, which is released worlwide this month.

Wed 15 Feb 10:00am,Jonathan Liebesman is in talks to direct the new 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' movie.
The filmmaker - who is currently finishing off production on fantasy sequel 'Wrath of the Titans' - has opened negotiations with Paramount to helm the reboot of the children's franchise.
Although based on the TV cartoon series, the film will be live action just like the 1990 movie which was released at the height of the characters' popularity.
The script is being penned by 'M:I4' writers Josh Appelbaum and Andre Nemec, while Michael Bay - who is responsible for the 'Transformers' series and 'Bad Boys' - will be producing the project.
Liebesman's other films include 'Battle: Los Angeles', 'The Killing Room' and 'The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning'.
'Wrath of he Titans' - the sequel to 'Clash of the Titans' - opens in March and sees Sam Worthington return as mythical Greek hero Perseus, the demigod son of Zeus.
A third film in the series has already been given the green light by Warner Bros. and screenwriters Dan Mazeau and David Leslie are working on the script.

Wed 15 Feb 6:00am,Kristen Stewart found it a ''very confidence building experience'' to punch Chris Hemsworth during filming for 'Snow White and the Huntsman'.
The brunette beauty - who plays the titular character in the forthcoming movie - gave the Hollywood actor, who stars as Eric the Huntsman, a black eye while shooting the motion picture but she admits it made her feel ''horrible''.
She said: ''It's actually a very confidence building experience. I don't like punching anyone. So, you know, when you dream and your hand just slides right down their face, it doesn't do that in real life. It really works.
''God, that really made me feel horrible, though. I mean, like instantly hot tears and I was like ''oops!'' We were watching it. It looks - it'll be in the movie.''
Despite her character's violence against 28-year-old hunk's alter-ego, Kristen - who is dating 'Twilight' co-star Robert Pattinson - admits Chris is an ''amazing'' guy to work with.
She added to PopSugar.com: ''Before I met him, I was like, 'gosh, so charming.' You know what I mean? Like he's so ridiculously, seemingly nice. Movie-star calibre nice. But he really actually just is. But then again, it's strange working - cause I mean it's not a secret. It was completely different part before. It was totally like a rethought.
''So when he came in it was like, 'Wow! This is f***ing interesting!' I mean, it was like they really elevated it. Chris is an amazing, nice guy and also [has] great instincts and he can roll with everything on set. He's really relaxed, whereas I'm always like, 'oh my god!' I use my anxiety to do this and he's always sort of like - he's a good energy for me. I really like working with him.''

Wed 15 Feb 6:00am,Tom Hardy has made a ''massive'' physical transformation to star in 'The Dark Knight Rises'.
The 'Warrior' actor - who is set to portray Bane in the movie - has bulked up for the motion picture, according to producer Emma Thomas.

''He finally feels like a match for Batman - both physically and mentally.''
As well as being a good match between Bane and Batman - who is played by Christian Bale - Emma admitted the 34-year-old star and Christian are ''fiercely committed'' which makes their onscreen rivalry work perfectly.
She added to Total Film magazine: ''Christian Bale and Tom Hardy are both such fiercely committed actors that pitching them as adversaries works incredibly well - they have such a great chemistry on camera.''
Anne Hathaway is set to take up the role of Catwoman in the motion picture, and Emma promises the brunette beauty's character will come with a few surprises.
She explained: ''It's completely new, and it's a really interesting role. You never quite know where you are with her.''

Tue 14 Feb 4:00pm,Emma Watson is in talks to star in 'Beauty and the Beast'.
The 'Harry Potter' actress - who played Hermione Granger in the fantasy series - is reportedly in the final stages of negotiations to appear in Guillermo Del Toro's remake of classic fairytale, Variety reports.
Emma is being talked about for the role of Belle, who gets trapped in the palace of a former prince who has been turned into a monster by a curse.
The script for the project - which is expected to be released in 2014 - is set to be penned by 'Bridget Jones' Diary' screenplay co-writer Andrew Davies, with Denise DiNovi in line to direct.
The 21-year-old beauty was recently linked to 'Your Voice in My Head' - which tells the story of a young woman who tries to kill herself before being saved by a psychiatrist who is dying - which would see her team up again with 'Harry Potter' director David Yates.
Warner Bros is reportedly interested in getting Emma involved in the motion picture, while Tom Hanks and George Clooney have been talked about to play the role of the medical professional.

Tue 14 Feb 4:00pm,Michael Mann is set to direct 'The Big Stone Grid'.
The director is in talks to helm the police drama, which is about two decorated detectives who uncover a terrifying extortion ring that operates within the secret underbelly of New York City.
Sony Pictures bought S. Craig Zahler's scribe script last year and Michael De Luca is set to produce.
However, sources say he is likely to change the script once he looks over it and could even relocate to Los Angeles.
Mann is likely to next direct 'Go Like Hell', the duel between Ford vs. Ferrari for sports car supremacy in the 60s that he is developing at Fox. He's also executive producing the HBO series 'Luck' with David Milch.
Mann recently said working on a TV show was no different from being on a movie set.
He said: ''Everything we do on 'Luck' is absolutely no different than if we'd had been doing it in a feature film. There's no short cuts. The specificity of what every single line might mean. Everything Dustin Hoffman does. Kevin Dunn is as authentic in the last scene of the last episode as he is in the first scene of the first episode. He hasn't said to himself, 'Oh wow, this works, I'm wonderful.' There's none of that vanity. It's just great, authentic work. And John Ortiz, he's world-class.''

Tue 14 Feb 10:00am,Dominic Cooper has replaced Clive Owen in 'Cities'.
The 'Devil's Double' actor has signed up for the drama alongside Anil Kapoor, Kirsten Dunst and Orlando Bloom after the 'Layer Cake' star was forced to drop out due to scheduling conflicts.
'Cities' - which will be directed by Roger Donaldson - is described as a ''cautionary tale about greed and ambition'' and is set in three different locations with each city telling a different story, which eventually collide to show how the fortunes of others impact on other individuals across the globe.
In New York, a hedge fund manager who will now be played by Dominic has everything he could ever want - money, sex and power - but is constantly looking for more, while in Mumbai, a cop fights against corruption between property speculators and his devious colleague, who will be played by Anil.
Orlando and Kirsten will play a young couple in London struggling to get together the money for a deposit on their first home.
Dominic's agreement to join 'Cities' now leaves his role in 'Motor City' in doubt.
The action thriller - which will also star Gary Oldman and Amber Heard - was due to start shooting around the same time as 'Cities' so the British actor may have to drop out in order to fulfil his new commitment.

Tue 14 Feb 10:00am,Michael Bay will direct 'Transformers 4'.
Producer Lorenzo Di Bonaventura has confirmed the filmmaker - who was at the help of the first three 'Transformers' movies in the series - will take charge of the blockbuster, which is set to be released in the summer of 2014.
He told MTV News: ''Yeah Michael's gonna direct and it'll be releasing in the summer of 2014.
''We're excited and I think the challenge there is we really are gonna do a reboot, and what that's gonna be we don't even know yet.''
But Lorenzo admitted there will be ''a lot'' of new cast members in the movie as no one from the previous three films has signed up yet.
He added: ''It's a hybrid because there's still continuity going on, and there will be a lot of new cast.
''Whether there's anybody from the first cast, we don't even know yet. But it's going to be a whole new story.''
Lead actor Shia LaBeouf could be unlikely to star in the fourth film in the franchise after previously distancing himself from reprising his role of Sam Witwicky.
He explained: ''I just don't think right now there's anywhere to take Sam.
''If you'd asked me fifteen years ago if I would be here, I would've said, 'No way.' I don't have a grand plan. There's not this grand scheme. I just fall into movies. I'm blessed in that regard. The movies I've been involved in, it's never been plotted and planned and picked. I was 17 when I met Michael, and I'm sort of Michael Bay-raised.
''I've learned a great deal from Michael, as a person, as an actor, as a person on set. And it's not that I don't enjoy working with Michael. I love working with Michael. I would do any movie Michael wants to do. I just don't think there's anywhere to take it with Sam.''

Tue 14 Feb 6:00am,Nicolas Cage says 'Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance' is a much more ''wild'' experience than its prequel.
The 'Face/Off' star revealed the movie is more of a ''daredevil experience'' than the sequel 'Ghost Rider' because he was able to play the ''edgier'' part of the Ghost Rider as well as reprise his role of Johnny Blaze.
He said: ''It's a much more edgier, almost cynical interpretation of the character in this film. 'Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance' is completely different in that the whole energy of making it was a different experience. It's a much more wild, daredevil experience.
''Even the way Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor shoot, they're like a stunt team. In this film I also got to be the Ghost Rider. In the first 'Ghost Rider' movie I was only Johnny Blaze.
''This gave me an opportunity to really explore my imagination and find an infinite number of possibilities about movement and how I could present this spirit from another dimension and have him kind of be like a bad dream.''
Nicolas admits filming 'Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance' is a ''completely different experience'' to the first movie in the series thanks to his additional role.
He added to Flicksandbits.com: ''Brian Taylor was a huge advocate of that, me playing Ghost Rider as well as Johnny Blaze. I think it really adds to the whole movie, it was interesting for me as well. In the original movie, somehow that didn't happen, for whatever the reasons - I'm happy with the first movie, but this ones a completely different experience.
''This Ghost Rider is a lot freakier in terms of the portrayal of the Ghost Rider. He feels a lot more like an entity that is alive, probably because some thought went into it and really tried to build a character here for you as Ghost Rider.''

Tue 14 Feb 6:00am,Peter Jackson will direct the 'Tintin' sequel.
Steven Spielberg revealed the 'Lord of the Rings' helmer will be in charge of the second 'Tintin' movie after the pair struck a deal before the first instalment of the animated project.
He said: ''Peter [Jackson]'s doing it. I wanted to do it, but Peter has to because we made a deal. I said, 'I'll direct the first one, you direct the second one.'
''And Peter, of course, is going to do it right after he finishes photography on 'The Hobbit'. He'll go right into the 31, 21 days of performance capture.
''We're not telling the world what books we're basing the second movie on yet.''
Despite Steven refusing to reveal which tomes will be used on the second 'Tintin' movie, producer Kathleen Kennedy recently hinted 'The Calculus Affair' is a strong possibility.
But Steven added to Total Film magazine: ''We haven't decided that yet. She's throwing a monkey wrench into your story! It could be that. I like 'The Calculus Affair'. So it could be.
''We have completed a story outline now. We have a writer on it. I'm just not declaring what it is. It will be more than one book, but no more than two.''

Mon 13 Feb 4:00pm,Meryl Streep wants to make a film about women's rights protesters with Kathy Bates.
'The Iron Lady' star is keen to team with 'Misery' star Kathy to make a film based on the lives of American civil rights campaigners Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton of the Women's Temperance Movement.
Speaking at last night's (12.02.12) BAFTA awards - where she won Best Actress for her portrayal of ex-British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, she said: ''I would like to make a film. I was talking with Kathy Bates, about doing Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton, two women who helped secure the vote, well they never lived to see it, but.''
Women's rights are a topic close to Meryl's heart, and she has even donated money to funding a museum which covers the suffrage movement in the US.
She added: ''One thing I do have, I'm currently trying to raise money for a National Women's History museum in Washington.
''In fact my salary for 'The Iron Lady' went to pay for some of that.''
Meryl has also recently finished acting in 'Great Hope Springs', which is set for release at the beginning of next year.

Mon 13 Feb 4:00pm,Will Ferrell has joined the cast of 'Flamingo Thief'.
The 'Anchorman' star is set to play Tim Forrester - a lawyer who becomes obsessed with stealing flamingo figurines after his wife leaves him - in the movie, which will be adapted from Susan Trott's novel of the same name, Variety reports.
Producers Ben Stiller and Stuart Cornfeld are searching for a director for the Red Hour Films project, which will see You, Me and Dupree's Michael LeSieur penning the script.

A source explained: ''During a break in filming, Will had gone to his dressing trailer to rest, but when he got there, he heard an eerie rattling noise - then strange voices coming from the bathroom.
''After a while Will went back into the trailer - but once again, he heard weird noises coming from the bathroom. This time he threw open the door and was shocked when he saw nothing.''

Mon 13 Feb 10:00am,Russell Crowe is in talks to star in 'Harker'.
The 'Robin Hood' actor has entered negotiations to appear in the reimagining of Bram Stoker's 'Dracula' as the titular character, a tough London detective on the hunt for the ghoulish figure behind a string of gory murders.
The Warner Bros. movie will be directed by Jaume Collet-Serra and produced by Leonardo DiCaprio, but no further casting information is currently available.

Previous stars connected to the movie included Christian Bale - who passed - and Michael Fassbender, who could not commit due to scheduling conflicts.
'Noah' is expected to be released in the summer of 2013.

Mon 13 Feb 10:00am,George Clooney would ''love'' to work with Kate Winslet.
The 'Descendants' star - who is dating former wrestler Stacy Keibler - is a big fan of the 'Mildred Pierce' actress and she is top of his list of dream co-stars.
Speaking at the British Academy Film Awards (BAFTA) at London's Royal Opera House last night (12.02.12), he said: ''I've never worked with Kate Winslet and I'd love to work with her. There are a million more out there. Pretty much any actress - I love working with actresses in general.''
Despite being beaten in all six nominated categories - including the Best Actor prize, which was won by 'The Artist' star Jean Dujardin - George admitted the ceremony is improving each year and it is getting ''very good'' at indicating who will win what at the Oscars.
He added: ''BAFTA is getting better and better and is very good at picking it's nominees. It's also very fun to watch as it gets bigger every year. It's getting very good at predicting what the Oscars will be.
''We have been doing The Oscars for a long time and it's still the big one to win and in general I think everyone agrees. But, look, being nominated for a BAFTA is a really cool thing and that's why people are showing up here. I think that's partly down to BAFTAs making it much more of an event.''
The 50-year-old hunk admitted his latest movie 'The Descendants' - which missed out on the Best Film gong to 'The Artist' - was a ''challenge'' to create, and he didn't expect it to be very well received.
He told BANG Showbiz: '''The Descendants' was a challenge to make but making films in general is always a little bit of a challenge but it's still making movies and that's fun. Mostly it was fun. I didn't think it would be so well received but you never do that. Sometimes you do films and you are surprised when people like them and that's nice.''
