George Lucas has a director and cast for his RED TAILS film. Rick McCallum (Lucas’ ultimate “yes” man) will be producing. Anthony Hemingway (BATTLESTAR GALACTICA) is directing. Cuba Gooding Jr is starring along with Terrence Howard, Bryan Cranston, and various others. Lucas says, “I’ve been wanting to do Red Tails for 20 years, and we’ve finally got the means to showcase the skill of the Tuskegee pilots,” said Lucas. “We’re working on techniques which will give us the first true look at the aerial dogfighting of the era. And our top-notch cast will really make this story special.” “I’m thrilled to have such a fantastic cast of actors and such a talented director to work with,” said McCallum. “The story of the Tuskegee Airmen represents a milestone in American history, and we’re all proud to be paying tribute to their heroic efforts. That cultural significance is not lost on anyone in this great young cast.”
"I think that’s still happening. I think they’re still going to do a limited run of it, or they’re still talking about it anyway" says Director Zack Snyder about the limited theatrical release in July of the 190-minute cut of WATCHMEN.

There are more than 300 visual effects shots, which required eight months of post-production. Arcade Fire recorded the soundtrack with over 90 minutes of music. This is my most personal film to date, and I'm very proud of how it turned out.
Rick Moranis may be up for GHOSTBUSTERS 3 (please!!!). According to Ramis, who cowrote and starred in the first two Ghostbusters, a third journey into the comedic supernatural is in the cards. And yes, the original cast will return: Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson, Rick Moranis, and even the elusive Bill Murray. "Everybody said they'd do it," says Ramis. Moranis’ return to the role of accountant Louis Tully is big and exciting news. The SCTV vet hasn’t appeared in a movie since 1996’s “Big Bully.” A few other tidbits are out as well. The script won’t be finished earlier than summer. Ramis is not intending to direct but will be in it.
