THE X-FILES---Fox TV chairman Gary Newman confirmed the network is in talks with Chris Carter to revive the sci fi series with David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson hopefully returning. The series ran on Fox from 1993-2002.
AMERICAN SNIPER---filmmaker Michael Moore tweeted his comments about the Clint Eastwood/Bradley Cooper movie, "My uncle killed by sniper in WW2. We were taught snipers were cowards. Will shoot u in the back. Snipers aren't heroes. And invaders r worse." He later added, "But if you're on the roof of your home defending it from invaders who've come 7K miles, you are not a sniper, u are brave, u are a neighbor."
SCREAM QUEENS---Fox announced new co-stars for its comedy-horror anthology series about a college campus plagued by a series of murders. Joe Manganiello, Lea Michele, Abigail Breslin and Keke Palmer will co-star with Jamie Lee Curtis and Emma Roberts.
Fox also announced it renewed GOTHAM, EMPIRE and BROOKLYN NINE-NINE.
Fox said it is discussing a 24 spinoff series without Jack Bauer and a PRISON BREAK miniseries.

STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS---the BBC reported that Amybeth Hargreaves (GAME OF THRONES) will play a female Stormtrooper in the movie, but it's known if she will be a new character or a stunt double for Gwendoline Christie. It was reported earlier that the movie will also have a black Stormtrooper.
HEROES REBORN---Zachary Levi (CHUCK) will join Jack Coleman in the NBC 13-episode spinoff miniseries. Levi's character was not disclosed.
NOW YOU SEE ME: THE SECOND ACT---photo released of the sequel cast of Mark Ruffalo, Jesse Eisenberg, Lizzy Caplan, Woody Harrelson, Dave Franco, Daniel Radcliffe and Michael Caine.
CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR---Kristen Stewart said she wants to appear in the sequel, "I love watching those movies. I would love to show people that I can do more than just be 'Kristen Stewart' in a different movie, in a different circumstance. I'm sure I could get on board with 'Captain America', you know what I mean? ... It would just have to be the right thing."
FARGO---Ronald Reagan will be a character who interacts with other characters in Season 2 but the role hasn't been cast yet.
TWIN PEAKS---Sheryl Lee and Dana Ashbrook confimed they're returning with Kyle McLachlan for the sequel series. They implied that Sherilyn Fenn is also returning.
THE DIVE---THE HUNGER GAMES team of Jennifer Lawrence and director Francis Lawrence are hoping to reunite for this movie about Francisco Ferreras and his wife, Audrey Mestre, who broke numerous free-diving records until Mestre died during a 2002 dive. James Cameron is the producer.
RUSH HOUR---CBS tv series remake of the 1998 Jackie Chan/Chris Tucker movie is underway. Writer Bill Lawrence (SCRUBS, COUGAR TOWN) said, “New plot, same characters. A little younger, a little different, fish out of water. It’s a cool script. I’m psyched about it.”
SNOW WHITE AND THE HUNTSMAN---Emily Blunt is attached to co-star in the untitled sequel as the villain. Chris Hemsworth is returning with Charlize Theron expected to return. Director Frank Darabont (THE WALKING DEAD) left the movie due to "creative differences".
THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT---co-director Eduardo Sanchez commented on a possible third movie, “We have been talking to Lionsgate and there has been a little bit of movement but nothing is concrete. The film seems inevitable to me, but really it’s just a matter of it being the right time. I’m thinking it’s going to happen sooner than later at this point, but I always say that. There’s always rumblings and certain ideas being pushed around and such. While I don’t have anything firm to talk about now, it wouldn’t surprise me if something happened within the next year or two.”
X-MEN: APOCALYPSE---Patrick Stewart said he and Ian McKellen won't be appearing in the movie, “I was learning quite a lot more about it last night. It is going to be looking very much at the earlier lives of all our characters. And so I don’t think we’ll be making an appearance.”
RINGS---Matilda Lutz will star in the reboot of the US THE RING horror movie franchise.
FREEDOM RUN---eight-hour NBC miniseries underway based on the book FORBIDDEN FRUIT: LOVE STORIES FROM THE UNDERGROUND RAILROAD. Stevie Wonder is the executive producer.
