Scream Queens: Kristen Bell, Anna Paquin
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Horror, Sequels, Casting, Upcoming Releases,
The cast of Scream 4 has room for all, it seems - including an Oscar winner and the girl next door.
Anna Paquin and Kristen Bell have both been confirmed to the cast of the horror flick, joining Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox-Arquette, David Arquette, Hayden Panettiere and Adam Brody on the set.
Dimension Films has offered no hints on the characters Paquin and Bell will play, but we do know that Emma Roberts will play Jill, the film’s heroine (and therefore, least likely to be brutally murdered onscreen).
The movie will be released in April 2011.

Box Office Breakdown: Meatballs Rolls to Another Victory

Surrogates was no substitute for meatballs.
Despite competition from a Bruce Willis film, a music-based remake and a sci-fi horror entry, A Cloudy Chance of Meatballs remained the theatergoers’ order of choice for the second week in a row. The children’s book adaptation had Sony dining to the tune of $25 million—over $10 million more than the second place finisher.
Many thought Willis, who hasn’t had a major role since 2007’s Live Free or Die Hard, was on track to take first this weekend. Unfortunately, his
movie was considered a big letdown given its $15 million gross and $80 million budget. Meanwhile, Fame, a remake of the 1980 hit, had no one feeling like they wanted to live forever. The MGM feature only rung up $10 million for third place.

Box Office Breakdown: Chance of Meatballs is Winning Recipe
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: 20th Century Fox, FOCUS, Lionsgate, Sony, Universal, Warner Bros, Weinstein Company, Adaptation, Animation, Drama, Family, Horror, Period, Romance, Sequels, Comedy, Box Office, Lists,
While it may not have had a Damon, an Aniston or a Fox, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs had something no other film did this weekend: a win. The animated adaptation raked in $30.3 million over the weekend easily pushing it to the top of the charts. The PG-rated entry towered over the box office and nearly tripled its nearest competitor (The Informant). The 3-D film also gave Sony Pictures Animation its biggest debut to date.
Elsewhere, two Hollywood beauties were struggling to make a respectable showing. Despite (or because of) a number of notable quotes, Megan Fox failed to muster any interest in her first starring vehicle. Jennifer’s Body, a horror film penned by Diablo Cody, raised a whopping $6.9 million for a fifth-place finish. (I’m not even sure that would be enough to fund one day of a Transformers production.) Megan Fox might not be a fan of Michael Bay, but she better be grateful she met him.

If you like seeing Megan Fox run away from killer robots, it might also excite you to see the beauty as a killer herself.
In Jennifer’s Body, the actress stars as a possessed cheerleader who likes to tear apart high school boys. Mamma Mia‘s Amanda Seyfriend plays Needy Lesnicky, Jennifer Check’s best friend, while Adam Brody (The O.C.) sports eyeliner as the lead singer of a rock band.
