Debi Mazar & Gabriele Corcos, Stars of Extra Virgin, Fuse Tofu & Berries for Summertime Treat
2 hours ago | PEOPLE.com | See recent PEOPLE.com news »
On their Cooking Channel show Extra Virgin, it's plain to see that Debi Mazar and her husband Gabriele Corcos are as enamored with food as they are with each other. "Our love affair started at a dinner table in Florence and has evolved being in the kitchen together," Corcos tells People. "It's there that we prepare our daily family meals, develop new recipes, or just experiment with food." Though their romance started at the table, Mazar, who stars in the upcoming Lovelace alongside Amanda Seyfried, James Franco and Bobby Cannavale, says that while her diet is inspired by the flavors of Tuscany, »

Jennifer Lawrence To Bradley Cooper: ‘You’re A Wet Kisser’
5 hours ago | HollywoodLife | See recent HollywoodLife news »
Bradley Cooper might look like a total hunk, but apparently he doesn’t have the skills that most Casanovas do. During a hilarious interview, the actor admitted that Jennifer totally dissed him when they first smooched on the set of ‘Silver Linings Playbook.’
For awhile we thought Jennifer Lawrence won an Oscar for her role in Silver Linings Playbook because she was fearless, witty, and incredibly engaging. It turns out they might’ve given her the award just because she was able to make a kiss with Bradley Cooper look good!
Jennifer Lawrence Disses Bradley Cooper
Making a guest appearance on BBC’s The Graham Norton Show on May 23, Bradley revealed that his snogging skills aren’t as impressive as you’d expect. And J-Law wasn’t afraid to call him out on it.
“After the second take she said, ‘You’re a wet kisser,’” Bradley admitted. “You don’t want to hear that. »

Gargoyles, Gunplay, and Jonah Hill Possession in 3 New Videos from This is the End
24 May 2013 9:19 AM, PDT | Beyond Hollywood | See recent Beyond Hollywood news »
If you find yourself not being particularly gung-ho for Evan Goldberg and Seth Rogen’s “This is the End”, I don’t blame you. The idea of a bunch of young Hollywood actors who happen to be friends getting together to make a self-referential post-apocalyptic movie is a bit too precious for its own good. But I have to say, the movie does look oddly decent, and plus, it even has Emma Watson playing Emma Watson talking about a zombie apocalypse. Cute. Anyways, here are three more videos from the film, including a Red Band TV spot, one of those confessional spots, and a new clip where Jonah Hill and James Franco wave a loaded handgun around because, well, they’re dumbass actors and they don’t know any better. Enjoy, enjoyers. Six friends are trapped in a house after a series of strange and catastrophic events devastate Los Angeles. »

Watch Dave Franco Toss Cards While Grinning Like a Madman
24 May 2013 8:37 AM, PDT | NextMovie | See recent NextMovie news »
Dave Franco (yes, the James Franco's little doppelganger brother) is called "The Sleight" in the upcoming heisty magic movie "Now You See Me," and now he's ready to prove that his hand skills do indeed live up to that moniker ... and also that, just like his brother, his intellect is likely of the right-brain nature.
Franco and real-life magician — or should we say as real-life as magicians get — David Kwong teamed up for this new promo video for the film in which Franco smiles maniacally and throws cards at the camera. It's a technique called, you guessed it, "card-throwing" and Franco proves to be pretty apt at it. It's all in the wrist, of course!
What he's not so keen on, unfortunately, is quick counting the number of tries it takes him to hit his target. It's okay; he's so dreamy it doesn't really matter (hence the giant grin).

Amanda Seyfried set to join Ben Stiller & More for Noah Baumbach’s While We’re Young
24 May 2013 6:00 AM, PDT | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »
Noah Baumbach’s While We’re Young has been in development for a good few years now, with Ben Stiller, James Franco, Greta Gerwig, and Cate Blanchett first boarding the project back in 2010. And it looks like things have been coming together very nicely in recent weeks.
The film has undergone a number of changes to the cast over the years, with Naomi Watts and Adam Driver most recently signing on for the roles previously set for Franco and Blanchett. And now The Wrap reports that Amanda Seyfried (Les Misérables) is in final talks to join the cast in the role previously set for Gerwig.
Stiller and Watts star as a married couple that strikes up an unlikely friendship with a younger free-spirited couple, played by Driver and Seyfried, the latter of whom makes homemade ice cream.
Seyfried came through as a potential candidate a few weeks ago, and is »

Amanda Seyfried Joins While We're Young
23 May 2013 6:29 PM, PDT | MovieWeb | See recent MovieWeb news »
Amanda Seyfried is in final negotiations to join the cast of While We're Young for writer-director Noah Baumbach (Frances Ha).
The story centers on an uptight documentary filmmaker (Ben Stiller) and his wife (Naomi Watts), whose lives are altered when they meet a free-spirited young couple (Adam Driver and Amanda Seyfried). The gestating project has seen several cast members come and go throughout the years, including James Franco and Cate Blanchett, with Greta Gerwig once considered for Amanda Seyfried's role.
Noah Baumbach is directing from his own original screenplay, with Scott Rudin and Eli Bush producing. Production is scheduled to begin sometime this fall.
Amanda Seyfried most recently starred in The Big Wedding, and she voices a role in the animated feature Epic, which opens this weekend. She is currently shooting A Million Ways to Die in the West, directed by Seth MacFarlane.

Freaks and Geeks Ep 1.05 ‘Tests and Breasts’ takes us inside the mind of Daniel Desario
23 May 2013 6:23 PM, PDT | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »
Freaks and Geeks Episode 5 ‘Tests and Breasts’
Directed by Ken Kwapis
Written by Bob Nickman
Aired 11/6/1999 on NBC
If anyone needed proof that James Franco was going to be a great actor, all they had to watch was his show-stealing performance in ‘Tests and Breasts’. But the tale of Daniel Desario is a tragic comedy – and following on the heels of ‘Kim Kelly Is My Friend’, firmly establishes the streak of cynical realism underneath the touching character moments and hilarious conclusions. Last week it was Kim’s disturbing life, and next week it will be Nick’s reality check – but this week belongs to Daniel, who has a profound impact on nearly every character on the show in this episode.
Daniel’s goal in ‘Tests and Breasts’ is simple: recruit Lindsey to help him cheat his way through an algebra test (a class Lindsey took last year, she notes at »

Red-Band Trailer for 'This is the End'
23 May 2013 11:00 AM, PDT | FEARnet | See recent FEARnet news »
The world is ending this summer, according to movie studios. Before fall, we can look forward to This is the End, The World's End, and Rapture-palooza, three comedy/sci-fi hybrids about the apocalypse.
The new, red-band trailer (for language) for Seth Rogan's This is the End has just hit the interwebz. Celebrities like Rogan, Paul Rudd, Jason Segal, and Michael Cera are attending a party at James Franco's house when the apocalypse begins. Seems about right. The new trailer focuses on giant demons and a possessed Jonah Hill. Color me intrigued.

Seyfried & Stiller Team Up For ‘While We’re Young’
23 May 2013 10:58 AM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »
Noah Baumbach’s While We’Re Young is finally taking off, with news surfacing that Amanda Seyfried has signed onto the project, completing the ensemble cast.
Baumbach will be directing his Greenberg star Ben Stiller, who will feature as the husband of Naomi Watts. The pair feel that middle age has tied them down, but become reinvigorated when they meet freespirited, bohemian couple Seyfriend and Girls regular Adam Driver.
While We’Re Young is definitely a long time coming. Baumbach originally started planning his idea way back in 2010, when both James Franco and Jesse Eisenberg were circling the project. I’m a huge, huge fan of everyone involved so the sooner production begins, the better!

James Franco Continues His Film Critic Aspirations By Telling Vice Readers He Loves 'Leviathan'
23 May 2013 10:38 AM, PDT | Indiewire | See recent Indiewire news »
A week after defending "The Great Gatsby" in a written review, James Franco has continued his aspirations to add film critic to his seemingly endless list of hyphenates, this time offering up his take on Lucien Castaing-Taylor and Verena Paravel's "Leviathan" (which actually has been in theaters since early March, but I guess Franco has the power to pretty much review whatever he wants, whenever he wants). Once again writing for Vice Magazine, Franco makes clear from the get-go that he's in love with the documentary -- which focuses on the commercial fishing industry of the North Atlantic -- titling the review "'Leviathan,' I Love You: A Few Impressions." After a few paragraphs detailing the context of the evening he saw the film (including, somewhat needlessly, the fact that he's currently listening to Daft Punk and reading "Extra Lives: Why Video Games Matter"), Franco officially begins his »

A 'Freaks And Geeks' Kickstarter Film? Judd Apatow Sets Record Straight
23 May 2013 9:10 AM, PDT | Filmology | See recent Filmology news »
Kickstarter is all the buzz in Hollywood these days, with dedicated fans hoping that their favorite television show will be next to make a reunion movie. So while we recently chatted with Judd Apatow after receiving the Peabody Award for Girls, we asked him if his 1999 hit Freaks and Geeks would ever take that route.
"I don't think we aren't interested in doing it because we like how it ended. So we don't feel like opening it up again," he said. Laughing, "But in a way, everything I do is sort of like a sequel."
Sequels and reunions is definitely something that the writer and producer is used to. From Seth Rogen to James Franco and Jason Segel, Apatow has worked with many of the same actors over the years in hugely successful films like Pineapple Express, Knocked Up, Anchorman, The 40 Year Old Virgin, Superbad, and Forgetting Sarah Marshall. »

Amanda Seyfried Joins Ben Stiller in Baumbach's 'While We're Young'
23 May 2013 8:36 AM, PDT | firstshowing.net | See recent FirstShowing.net news »
Since December of 2010, the project While We're Young with director Noah Baumbach and star Ben Stiller has been gestating with fluctuating cast members. Initially James Franco was going to be a part of the project, but he fell away, and Jesse Eisenberg was circulating six months later. Now it sounds like the whole cast is coming together for Baumbach to get this film off the ground. Stiller is still leading the film about a free-spirited Brooklynite twenty-something couple who inspires an uptight documentarian (Stiller) and his wife to loosen up, and now The Wrap reports Amanda Seyfried has joined the ensemble cast. Read on! Seyfried is just coming off the Best Picture nominated Les Miserables, and will soon be heard in the animated film Epic this weekend, not to mention Seth MacFarlane's A Million Ways to Die in the West next year. Seyfried will play one half of the »

Watch: 2 Clips & Red Band TV Spot For 'This Is The End'
23 May 2013 8:04 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
Upon viewing the abundance of “This is the End” clips and trailers that are available online, one thing is for certain: these guys had a lot of fun making this movie. You’ve got James Franco, Seth Rogen, Jonah Hill, Jay Baruchel, Danny McBride, Craig Robinson, etc. all getting to play fictionalized versions of themselves in an apocalyptic comedy co-directed by Rogen (alongside Evan Goldberg). Sounds like a grand old time. But will us average movie-going folk enjoy it half as much as they will? That’s the question. The clips released so far have been a bit hit and miss, and today we have a new red band TV spot as well as two new clips from the film that pretty much indicate the same thing. The red band spot is mostly an abridged version of the red band trailer, but the clips give us some new footage. The »

Early ‘World War Z’ and ‘This Is the End’ Reactions – Good Apocalypse Movies?
23 May 2013 7:48 AM, PDT | ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news »
The fast-approaching World War Z and This Is the End are polar opposites – tonally speaking – yet both apocalyptic movies have prompted divided responses, during the buildup to their theatrical release. Director Marc Forster and star Brad Pitt’s Wwz adaptation has stirred up controversy over its departure from the source material, with a troubled production and lackluster marketing “helping” to heap on more negative buzz. Similarly, This Is the End either looks brilliant and hilarious or crude and dull-witted, depending (partly) on your general feelings about past comedic offerings from actors like Seth Rogen, James Franco, Jonah Hill and Danny McBride.
Earlier this week, World War Z and This Is the End were screened for select movie bloggers, journalists, celebrities and everyday moviegoers; surprisingly, though, the general ...

'Twilight' dominates Teen Choice Awards nominations

The sun has set (or risen?) on Summit Entertainment’s venerable vampire series — but even though it, like Robsten, is officially kaput, Twilight still holds a hypnotic power over people of a certain age. (That age is “young.”)
The last installment of the blood-sucking saga dominates the “first wave” of nominees at this year’s Teen Choice Awards, which single out the movies, TV series, music, fashion, comedians, athletes, and performers that resonate most with today’s 13- through 19-year-olds. The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn — Part 2 snagged seven nods, nine if you include star Taylor Lautner’s individual nominations for »
