Guess what’s filming already? 24!
And in a sort-of funny twist of fate, our first set pictures are of Kiefer Sutherland getting arrested, much like he did last December.
Jack Bauer and Kiefer are the same in our minds, which is why we freaked out when we got to see him during a Q&A for his quickly forgotten documentary I Trust You To Kill Me. Jack Bauer was at the front of the room! Talking about rock music!
But then, 24 Season Six happened.
More debate, more photos, plus a quick rundown of what we know is in Bauer’s future, inside.

We honestly couldn’t tell you where they are filming Jennifer’s Body, the new Megan Fox (the sexiest woman in the world) flick right now. Someone might have told us when they passed along these pictures, but as soon as we opened the first one…well, we were done thinking. Possibly for the day.
[UPDATE: “They are filming in Vancouver, and this is *possibly* at Sasamat Lake.”]
More photos, including the full version of the one above (and a paste-riffic few!)…inside.

1) New production photo from Kevin Smith’s Zack and Miri Make A Porno! If you don’t think Monroeville Zombies is a cool-ass name for a hockey team, you might be dead. If you don’t know why it’s great, you haven’t watched Dawn Of The Dead enough.
2) 40 Hi-Res photos of The Dark Knight over at /Film. Fairly spoiler-free. Especially in comparison to our recent post about the newest trailer.
3) First look at Biggie and Puff Daddy (he was still called that at the time) from Notorious!
4) This is what Meryl Streep looks like as Julia Child in the upcoming Julie & Julia.

Willa Ford starred in an ultra-C-List, absolutely budget-less, got most of their press form a Variety article, bio pic of Anna Nicole Smith. How she roped a group of what appears to be soft-core porn producers with (once again, we’re guessing) a Lifetime movie reject crew is a mystery to us, but after the films announcement and a few TMZ-in-poor-taste behind the scenes looks, the film dropped off the radar.
Now, the flick has leaked on the internet in torrent fashion, though it appears that the film was not ripped from a DVD. Who knows why the movie showed up this way, instead of at least a bare-bones DVD release.
Is it really that bad? Yes.
And we have a 7-minute video full of clips about just how bad it is, after the jump.

Entertainment Weekly scored the first look at Josh Brolin as George W Bush and Elizabeth Banks as Laura Bush, the roles they were given for Oliver Stone’s Bush II movie: W.
We were a little skeptical when Brolin was announced as W, because he was alos being looked at for a role in Terminator 4 (which we never really heard about again) and he had just come off No Country For Old Men, American Gangster and In The Valley of Elah – all movies where he appears to look nothing like President George W Bush.
This EW cover shut us up rightly. If they can make Banks and Brolin look this good, then James Cromwell as HW Bush and Ellen Burstyn as Barbara are going to look amazing, because those actors already kind of look the part already.

There have been some recently released pictures of GI Joe characters floating around the nets, piquing the interest of the always rabid Wednesday entertainment blogger crowd.
Latino Review has the first look at Byung-hun Lee popular henchman Storm Shadow, Collider has a nice hi-quality look at Dennis Quaid as General Hawke, and IGN has another look at Sienna Miller as Baroness, for those that missed the earlier leaked photos.
ALSO! Not to be outdone, IESB has chimed in with the first pic of Chris Eccleston as James McCullen Destro XXIV aka DESTRO and Dark Horizons scored a picture of Saïd Taghmaoui as Breaker, the Joe communications expert.
Good day to look at people in leather costumes, we’d say.
UPDATE: Man! We are stupid! We forgot that Coming Soon also has the first look at Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje as Heavy Duty!

Matt Damon is down in Decatur, Illinois with old Ocean’s pal Steven Soderbergh. The two are currently working on The Informant, where Damon plays Mark Whitacre, one of the men involved in the mid-90s lysine price-fixing scandal.
We’re not exactly sure what that conspiracy was, but you better believe we’ll be looking it up in the next couple of months.
Until then, enjoy mustache-clad Damon and what looks to be fake snow shot out of a fire hose! Oh No They Didn’t take pictures of that!

Stephenie Myer, the author of the young adult novel twilight and it’s three sequels (though the fourth book, Breaking Dawn isn’t released until August), must be pretty psyched right now.
Her movie seems to be building an unusual amount of steam amongst the disposable income demographic, and the marketing team is hitting all the right notes, releasing the teaser on MySpace instead of with Speed Racer and letting the teaser poster go first to MTV (click on thumbnail to grow it).

Not only that…

Now that the New York premiere of Speed Racer has already gone down, Dave would like to withdraw his offer to blow anyone who could get him into a Speed Racer screening.
If it’s not the premiere, he doesn’t want to go. He’s a diva that way.
Not to mention that these three minutes of Speed Racer released as a teaser has us doubting how high we were planning to get before catching an IMAX showing.
We might lose our shit.

Hey, remember that bootlegged trailer we pointed you in the direction of? It hasn’t been pulled from everywhere, and it makes Indy IV actually look like an Indiana Jones movie for – arguably – the first time!
Also just released, a whole bunch of Official Pix Indy photos for sale, including some of our first looks at the geometry of the Crystal Skull and a certain bearded cast member.
We’ll throw those behind the cut, because they might be a little spoilerish!

Here it is, the first official picture of the cast of Twilight, the vampire film that is setting the internet aflame with its sexy stars and bloodsucking nature.
“But guys,” you say, “I’ve already seen pictures of these kids.”
Yes, but they weren’t official. Now thanks to Cinematical, we know that this one is. This is what Twilight is going to look like.
Why is no one sweating?

Willard Christopher Smith Jr. was out and about looking more Fresh Prince than Independence Day filming a crowd scene for his newest, Seven Pounds.
Here’s what we know about the flick:
Ben (Will Smith) is an IRS agent who is deeply depressed after the death of his wife, and guilt-ridden for mistakes from his past. He decides to kill himself, but to also help seven struggling individuals before doing so. When he meets Emily (Rosario Dawson), a beautiful woman with an heart condition, he falls in love with her, complicating his plans of suicide. Woody Harrelson also appears as a blind pianist who befriends Ben.
Seven strangers? Seven sins? Pound of flesh?…Se7en?

Jim Carrey is getting all gay-ed up to act in I Love You Phillip Morris, and this is what we know about it: Based on a book by Houston Chronicle crime reporter Steve McVicker, the fact-based film casts Carrey as Steven Russell, a married father whose exploits landed him in the Texas criminal justice system. He fell madly in love with his cellmate, who eventually was set free, which led Russell to escape from Texas prisons four times.
Jim seems to be jumping right into the role in Florida right now, if these set pics are any indication.

One of our favorite scenes in the original Crank was when Amy Smart’s character allows our hero to have sex with her in public to keep his adrenaline flowing.
From the looks of this mostly mysterious picture of Amy Smart from the set of Crank 2 (Crank: High Voltage), we’re going to get something interesting and sexy in the sequel.
