Kim Kardashian is being lined up to play Lara Croft.
The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star is reportedly top of the producers’ list to portray the adventuring archaeologist in a new Tomb Raider movie.
“Kim is wanted to play a far more comic-strip version of Lara, which would be shot in 3-D and aimed at a teen audience,” a source revealed. Kim currently has limited acting experience - only starring in TV show Beyond the Break and CSI:NY.
Angelina Jolie - who played the videogame star in two movies, 2001’s Lara Croft: Tomb Raider and sequel Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life - is also said to be in consideration for the movie, along with Transformers beauty Megan Fox.
Another reality star has thrown her name into the running: The Hills star Heidi Montag previously expressed her desire to portray Lara Croft on the big screen: “I want to be blonde tomb raider, I’m better with guns than both Angelina and Megan Fox put together!”

Megan Fox Not a Part of Transformers 3
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Paramount, Action, Adventure, Science Fiction, Sequels, Casting, Celeb News, Celebrity Gossip, Upcoming Releases,
UPDATE: Megan Fox is now claiming that she chose not to come back to the franchise.
It looks like a little bad-mouthing can go a long way.
Megan Fox may have compared Michael Bay to Hitler well over a year ago (and even made a “genuine” apology last fall), but it appears the sting from her comments has not yet subsided.
Although it was believed the dark-haired beauty would return to Transformers 3, it’s just been announced that the role of Mikaela Banes has been cut. Sources say the search for a new love interest for Sam Witwicky (Shia LaBeouf) has now begun.

Megan Fox Oblivious to Staring Men
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrity Gossip,
If Megan Fox had it her way, she’d have us believing she hates the Angelina Jolie comparisons. She’d also make us think she’s unaware of all her admirers.
The Transformers star - who is regularly voted among the world’s sexiest actresses - claims she leads too much of a quiet life with on/off boyfriend Brian Austin Green to notice other people’s responses to her appearance.
“I don’t really experience it because I’ve been in the same relationships forever,” she said. “I stay at home most of the time, but I guess I’m not complaining. Nobody in their right mind would complain. It’s great.”
Megan - who has dated the actor since they met on the set of US TV show Hope and Faith in 2004 - has often claimed to be insecure about how she looks, and hit out at good-looking celebrities who use their beauty as a “mask.”
“I’ve met endless so-called beautiful people who don’t seem to have personalities or a direction in life,” Fox stated. “They’ve never been forced to develop their characters because they’re viewed as being so attractive. So I think beauty can be a mask.”
Megan Fox Gets Emotional Over Transformers
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: DreamWorks, Paramount, Action, Adaptation, Adventure, Family, Science Fiction, Thrillers, Celeb News, Celebrity Gossip, Rumors,
Quelling the rumors once and for all, Transformers actress Megan Fox accepted her Spike TV Scream Award for Best Sci-Fi Actress this past weekend with a heartfelt speech.
In her speech, she indirectly refers to the anonymous Transformers crew members who wrote a very anti-Ms. Fox letter, which circulated the internet so fast that it prompted even director Michael Bay to speak out about it.
Calling herself “a very ordinary part of an extraordinary film,” it almost seems like she comes close to tears at one point. Truly grateful, or does she have me fooled with her acting abilities?

X-Men: Although it’s been six years since X2, Bryan Singer says he may not be done with the comic book franchise.

I’ve been talking to Fox about it,” Singer said. “I love Hugh Jackman. I love the cast,” he admitted. Brett Ratner was at the helm for 2006’s X-Men: The Last Stand while Gavin Hood directed 2009’s Wolverine.

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.

Charlize Theron Purring Over Catwoman Role
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Warner Bros, Action, Adaptation, Adventure, Mystery, Noir, Sequels, Thrillers, Casting, Celeb News, Celebrity Gossip, Rumors, Upcoming Releases,
Considering that Megan Fox can be counted out, Charlize Theron is now proclaiming how she’d love to “kick a*s” as Catwoman.
The Hollywood actress is thrilled to learn that she is in the running to play the super-villain alongside Christian Bale and Sir Michael Caine in the upcoming sequel to Batman blockbuster The Dark Knight.
“It’s news to me, but that’s kick-a*s news. I like that… I think that what has happened to that franchise is amazing, and director Chris Nolan is a genius. So I would be an idiot to not consider that.”
If the 34-year-old starlet accepts the role, she will be following in the footsteps of Michelle Pfeiffer and Halle Berry, who have both donned the iconic leather catsuit on the big screen.
Other actresses linked to the role include Angelina Jolie and Rachel Weisz.
