FRIDAY, APRIL 19
WEIRD SCIENCE---R-rated remake underway of the 1985 movie that starred Kelly LeBrock and Anthony Michael Hall. Joel Silver (DIE HARD, LETHAL WEAPON) returns as the producer.
TODAY---Ann Curry was constantly humiliated and forced out by her fellow TODAY staffers according to NEW YORK TIMES reporter Brian Stelter in his upcoming book TOP OF THE MORNING: INSIDE THE CUTTHROAT WORLD OF MORNING TV. Stelter said executive producer Jim Bell, who blamed Curry for TODAY's declining ratings, started "Operation Bambi" to get rid of her after one staffer said firing Curry would be like "killing Bambi". Also, "several boxes of Curry's belongings ended up in a coat closet, as if she had already been booted off the premises." Matt Lauer supposedly said, "I can't believe I'm sitting next to this woman." Staffers ridiculed her choice of outfits by photoshopping a photo of her in a yellow dress with Big Bird and captioning it, "Who wore it best?" Stelter wrote, "Some mornings, she cried as she read e-mail and Twitter messages from fans...She told friends that her final months were a form of professional torture." He added that she was "profoundly hurt and humiliated" by her firing and the way the her TODAY co-workers treated her.
DEXTER---Showtime confirmed the upcoming Season 8 will be the last season.
GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY---director James Gunn commented on how the talking Rocket Racoon will be portrayed in the movie, "I’ve done a lot of studying with real racoons, and we had real racoons come in. We’ve done photography with them, I’ve played with racoons, and fed racoons, and dealt a lot with real racoons to get some of the behavior down, because it’s really, really important to me that Rocket Racoon, who is the heart of the movie, is not a cartoon character, it’s not Bugs Bunny in the middle of The Avengers, it’s a real, little, somewhat mangled beast that’s alone...he’s been created by these guys to be a mean-a** fighting machine."
CAPTAIN AMERICA---Hayley Atwell said fans want her character, Peggy Carter, back in the film franchise, "There's been an online campaign for Peggy to be featured. People really liked her. So Marvel have made sure that as part of Comicon there will be a little kind of snapshot as to what Peggy's actually really capable of, which was finished here and which was great fun. Hopefully, it will lead to other things."
SEX TAPE---Cameron Diaz is in negotiations to star with Jason Segel in this Sony Pictures comedy movie about a married couple who make a sex tape to spice up their sex life. When the tape disappears, they have to retrieve it.
PASSENGERS---Keanu Reeves stars in this sci fi movie as a passenger on a spaceship during a 120-year-long voyage to colonize another planet. His hibernation pod malfunctions and awakens him 100 years early. To cure his loneliness, he awakens a beautiful woman for companionship.
UNDERNEATH---horror movie underway about newlyweds trapped in an underground cave system. The husband is injured and as the wife attempts to find help, they discover they are being hunted by an evil presence.
TAG BROTHERS---Will Ferrell and Jack Black may star in this comedy movie based on a WALL STREET JOURNAL article about two ex-classmates in their 40s who maintain a long-running game of Tag.
SAINT GEORGE---new FX sitcom starring George Lopez as a divorced man with a young son, overbearing mother living with him and a part-time teaching job in night school.

Don't worry, sweet Ann, you can always find comfort in my loving arms any day of the week.

but Hathaway apparently is considered a fony because she lobbied her ass off for that oscar for Les Miserables and well her previous oscar hosting was a disaster. I'm surprised Jay Leno isn't higher up in the list.
