Few erotic thrillers really earn the adjective “steamy,” but that’s definitely not the case with Elizabeth Allen Rosenbaum’s “Careful What You Wish For.” Starring Nick Jonas and Isabelle Lucas, the film centers around a young teen working in a wealthy vacation community during the summer before college. Upon meeting the gorgeous young wife of his powerful investment banker neighbor (Dermot Mulroney), he falls for her and starts an affair. But when the town erupts after a suspicious death, the young lovers become embroiled in a scandal, testing their limits as they battle passion, deceit and betrayal.

Having recently wrapped "Knights Of Cups" in L.A., a story about a man's temptations, celebrity and excess that stars Christian Bale, Natalie Portman, Cate Blanchett, Isabelle Lucas (at least in its principal cast), recluse filmmaker turned speedy auteur, Terrence Malick is now in Austin, Texas shooting his next picture, formerly known as "Lawless" (Malick was kind enough to let his friend John Hillcoat take the name for his gangster drama that came out late August). Untitled for now, the film follows two intersecting love triangles and is a story of sexual obsession and betrayal set against Austin's vibrant and colorful music scene. This picture also stars Christian Bale, Cate Blanchett and Natalie Portman, in addition to leads Ryan Gosling, Rooney Mara ("The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo") and Haley Bennett. ...

According to Indiewire, filmmaker Terrence Malick’s upcoming Knight Of Cups has received a new logline; production company FilmNation’s website now promises that, “The Knight of Cups is a story of a man, temptations, celebrity, and excess.”
That’s a pretty vague plot description, and one that could probably apply to a whole host of movies, from Citizen Kane to Blank Check, although Malick will probably differentiate Knight of Cups from those films by including a lot more urgent, voice-over whispering, most likely delivered by stars Christian Bale, Natalie Portman, Cate Blanchett, and Isabelle Lucas.
Other announced cast members include Antonio Banderas,Wes Bentley, Imogen Poots, Freida Pinto, Teresa Palmer, Ryan O’Neal, Jason Clarke, Joel Kinnaman and Shea Whigham, although who knows which actors will make the final cut.

I don’t know how to put this nicely so I am going to put it bluntly. Why is it that the pool is so shallow for young talent in Hollywood that Michael Bay had to cast a Victoria Secret Model instead of an actress in Transformers 3? So that in mind I have compiled a list of 7 other actresses who would have fit the bill to replace Megan Fox. They meet the criteria of being young and hot and as an added bonus... they can actually act.
Ashley Greene: Ashley Greene had her big break with the Twilight Series and quite honestly it feels odd putting a Twilight star on a list of potential replacements but she admittedly meets the criteria quite well. She can act, she is young and she has a distinct beauty about her which makes her a suitable replacement.

"Entourage" star Adrian Grenier has embarked on a new romance with model Emily Caldwell, according to a U.S. tabloid report. The actor, who has been linked in the past to Ashley Greene and Isabelle Lucas, was spotted cozying up to Caldwell at the Sundance Film Festival in January.
And sources tell Star magazine "lovestruck" Grenier is now introducing the 24-year-old as his girlfriend.
On another news, Adrian Grenier recently shared his dissatisfaction with the airing of his TV series 'Entourage', hoping it will be expanded to a 120 minute-running time. He told MTV, "I'm surprised that it's not a two-hour weekly series as it is, because everybody I know who loves the show watches at least three or four episodes back-to-back. One isn't enough. So why don't we just call it what it is and make it a two-hour show?"...

Los Angeles — At the previous three incarnations of the Spike TV Scream Awards, vampires were considered just another fanboy favorite, alongside such evergreens as zombies, killer robots, and busty sci-fi babes. But over the past 12 months, franchises like "Twilight" and "True Blood" have sunk their teeth into Hollywood, and Saturday night's taping of the fourth annual awards showed that there's no hate from the horror fans.
" 'Scream' is in the name — how much cooler can you get?" marveled "The Big Bang Theory" star Kaley Cuoco, looking up and down a checkered black-and-white carpet that had scantily clad women on swings overhead and a unicorn frolicking with such stars as Christina Ricci, Keith Richards and Justin Long.
