More news keeps pouring in about the second film in The Hunger Games series, Catching Fire. First we heard that Amanda Plummer had officially joined the film, then we heard that Lionsgate is looking for a director to helm the final two movies in the franchise (the final book, Mockingjay, is being split into two films a la Harry Potter).
While Woody Allen's latest venture on the big screen, To Rome with Love, wasn't received very well, it hasn't stopped him from plowing ahead. Not only does he have another film of his own in the works, but he has also signed on to star in John Turturro's upcoming film Fading Gigolo.
Not long ago, we finally got our first major look at Sam Raimi's upcoming film Oz: The Great and Powerful with a beautiful-looking trailer. To further expand upon the film's amazing look, Disney has released a set of six images that show off the production design of Oz and just how visually appealing it really is.
Today we have word that Universal has hired Juliet Snowden and Stiles White, both of whom are most known for helping co-write the underrated film Knowing, to take over writing and directing duties on the film.

HBO's Game of Thrones is currently one of the biggest and best shows on TV. Not only is it done on an epic scale, but it also features a consistently high level of quality in its storytelling, so it's no surprise that the show's panel drew a massive audience at Comic-Con earlier today.
Hot off the heels of announcing the wrapping of filming for The Hobbit last week, Peter Jackson attended the Comic-Con panel for the film today along with a few cast members, bringing with him some new footage to show off.
Edgar Wright is another one of those directors that makes my ears prick up whenever his name is mentioned. He has become something of a cult phenomenon. He started to become well-known with a little show called Spaced, before eventually moving on to what most people know him for: Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz, two hilarious films that were parodies of the zombie and action genres, respectively.
It may shock some of you to know that Director/writer Christopher Nolan has NEVER won an Academy Award. It may be even more shocking for some to discover that he's never even been nominated for the Best Director Oscar, though he has been nominated for three other Oscars (two for writing, one for producing). This has been one of the Academy's biggest oversights in the last several years, continually rejecting the man who brought us some of the greatest films of the last eleven years such as Memento, Batman Begins, The Prestige, The Dark Knight, and Inception.
Today we have word that Tobey Maguire has joined the cast of Reitman's latest effort entitled Labor Day, which has a cast that already includes Kate Winslet, Josh Brolin, J.K. Simmons, and James Van Der Beek.
