Jamie Foxx Will Play Mike Tyson in a New Biopic
Mike Tyson is one of the most controversial and bizarre figures to emerge out of the sports world in the past few decades, so it's not surprising that a biopic about his life is finally being made.

Weekend Box Office Report: ‘Lucy’ Takes Down the Mighty ‘Hercules’
This weekend saw two movies named after their lead characters go head-to-head. In one corner, you have 'Lucy.' In the other, 'Hercules.'

But the box office this weekend went in a completely different direction.
Comic-Con 2014: ‘Penguins of Madagascar’ Reveals First Clip and New Poster

Weekend Box Office Report: ‘The Purge’ Can’t Wipe Out the Planet of the Apes
Despite three very different new challengers, 'Dawn of the Planet of the Apes' continued to rule over the box office this weekend.

Mark Romanek in Talks to Direct the ‘Shining’ Prequel ‘Overlook Hotel’
What a difference a director makes: the thought of a prequel to 'The Shining' makes us roll our eyes hard, but the thought of Mark Romanek directing a prequel to 'The Shining' makes our ears perk up. If you are going to make a prequel to one of the coldest and weirdest horror movies of all time, you might as well hire one of the coldest and weirdest directors working today...
‘Star Wars: Episode 7′: Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert Duel For Charity
'Star Wars: Episode 7' is great and all, but do you know what's even better? Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert battling each other to see who is the bigger 'Star Wars' fan.
