Ellen Page "didn't expect" to return to the X-Men franchise.
The Juno actress will reprise her role as Kitty Pryde in X-Men: Days of Future Past.
"I didn't know for that long," she told Collider. "I knew they were kind of doing it, but I didn't expect it.
"I didn't expect to play Kitty Pryde again, so when that came up and I met with Bryan [Singer], because I didn't work with Bryan I worked with Brett Ratner, it was just awesome.
"I feel so grateful to be back... Really, truly, it's not like something I've known for a year by any means. I really didn't know that long before we went to shoot."
Page starred as Pryde in Ratner's poorly received X-Men: The Last Stand.
Her character played a central role in the original, two-issue 'Days of Future Past' storyline. It is unclear how closely the film will follow the »

The Turner networks' upfront presentation to advertisers in New York City didn't have much in the way of news, but did reveal TNT plans to finally premiere Frank Darabont's "Lost Angels" (starring Jon Bernthal of "The Walking Dead" and formerly known as "L.A. Noir") in late 2013 and TBS is developing a reality show starring Oscar-winning "Juno" writer Diablo Cody.
TNT already made most of its notable programming decisions -- renewing "Dallas" and "Boston's Finest," cancelling "Southland" and "Monday Mornings" and ordering "The Last Ship" and "Legends" -- ahead of the upfronts.
But both TNT and TBS unveiled a laundry list of shows in development that may or may not ever see the light of day as pilots, let alone series.
Among those titles at TNT:
- "Portal House" executive produced by Steven Spielberg, about a group of young scientists who "stumble upon a portal into the time-space continuum"
- An update of classic P. »

Did you cry when Jon Bernthal's "Shane" died on "Walking Dead"? Yes, join the club. Guess what! "Walking Dead" former showrunner Frank Darabont is using Jon in TNT and Frank Darabont's "Lost Angels" (formerly "L.A. Noir") in late 2013. Darabont's newest drama Lost Angels stars Jon Bernthal as Joe Teague, an ex-Marine turned Lapd cop during the city's infamous 1940s. The show is based on the John Buntin book L.A. Noir: The Struggle for the Soul of America's Most Seductive City, which focuses on the battle between gangster Mickey Cohen and legendary L.A. police chief William Parker. Other up front tidbits: TBS is developing a reality show starring Oscar-winning "Juno" writer Diablo Cody. TNT already announced the renewal of »

Ever since the rise of Conan O'Brien two decades ago, you no longer have to be a stand-up if you want to be a talk show host. O'Brien was a writer, a behind-the-scenes type, and yet proved personable enough in front of the camera to land a plum late-night position. Nowadays, while most talk show hosts come up through the comedy circuit, you have the occasional outlier to join O'Brien, as the recent appointment of "SNL" head writer Seth Myers as Jimmy Fallon's successor demonstrated. The latest, potentially, to join them? Oscar-winning screenwriter Diablo Cody. At their upfronts today, according to Indiewire, Conan's current home TBS announced that, alongside their new post-Conan show, to be presented by stand-up and podcaster Pete Holmes, they're developing another talk show with the "Juno" scribe to be called "Me Time With Diablo Cody." The show seems to be in the early stages, »

TBS is better known for its talk shows than its scripted programming, with the network's flagship series remaining Conan O'Brien's late night perch "Conan," where he landed after the NBC "Tonight Show" debacle of 2010. And he'll be getting some company -- at the Turner upfronts today, the network unveiled a schedule that includes another late night show hosted by comedian and podcast Pete Holmes, which will air after "Conan" in the slot that used to go to "Lopez Tonight" until it was canceled in 2011. TBS announced still another talk show in development, this one, interestingly, led by Diablo Cody. The "Juno" screenwriter is the host of the prospective series "Me Time with Diablo Cody," which will look at pop culture and Hollywood through Cody's perspective. The "United States of Tara" creator isn't a stranger to the talk show realm, having made several appearances on "Chelsea Lately" and hosted the »

"And I like large parties. They’re so intimate. At small parties there isn’t any privacy." ― F. Scott Fitzgerald, "The Great Gatsby"
Greetings from the apocalypse! This is an exciting week for me, since I'm making my art gallery debut and all — I'm celebrating with two docs covering cool artistic subcultures (gig posters and tattooing), as well as a hella ton of Mother's Day recommends. Let's get to it, shall we, old sport? Yep yep.

Pow! In Theaters
Glam filmmaker Baz Luhrmann's reimagining of F. Scott Fitzgerald's timeless Jazz-age romance "The Great Gatsby" looks like my 11th grade book report had sex with a disco ball, but that's par for the course. Luhrmann had previously razzle-dazzled "William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet" and reunites with Leonardo DiCaprio as enigmatic rich dude Jay Gatsby, clinging to the memory of a past dalliance with Daisy Buchanan (Carey Mulligan). Clinging tragically, »

Los Angeles — Leah Remini had good reason to join the new ABC sitcom "Family Tools."
The former "The King of Queens" star has a development deal with the network, and ABC Entertainment Group President Paul Lee asked her to be part of the comedy debuting 8:30 p.m. Edt on Wednesday.
Then Remini's mother weighed in.
"She said, `Who's in it?'" the actress recalled. After hearing the cast included J.K. Simmons ("Juno," "The Closer"), Remini's mom replied, "He's a real actor, Leah. You should do it."
"As opposed to me," Remini said, wryly. "He's real, he does drama."
Remini has made her career largely in comedy but her mom still can brag on her. Besides the 1998-2007 run opposite Kevin James in CBS' "King of Queens," Remini has worked steadily in a string of sitcoms including "Cheers" and "In the Motherhood." She was a co-host on "The Talk" for »

Chicago – ABC continues to try to use Emmy-winning comedy juggernaut “Modern Family” to create a hit as a lead-in or a lead-out: “The Neighbors,” “Suburgatory,” “Happy Endings,” “How to Live with Your Parents,” and, starting tonight, “Family Tools,” a show with a strong enough comedy pedigree to produce a few laughs but writing that isn’t quite strong enough to warrant comparison with the best of the ABC comedy wannabes. (For the record, “Happy Endings” is great and “Suburgatory” is real good. The rest range from mediocre to awful.)
Television Rating: 3.5/5.0
“Family Tools” has a pretty generic set-up — a wandering screw-up of a son comes home to run the family business even though he has no experience in doing so and no real connection to the other branches on his family tree. He has a distant dad, an acerbic aunt, a bizarre cousin, and an annoying neighbor. It seems like »

The next project from Another Earth director Mike Cahill, I Origins has secured the all-of-a-sudden-everywhere Brit Marling and Boardwalk Empire‘s Michael Pitt to star. There’s nothing like a grammatically-challenged film title to bag a bunch of Hollywood’s finest. Marling and Cahill worked together previously on 2011′s low-key sci-fi winner Another Earth and Marling has followed the film’s success by starring in a cluster of smaller flicks. Her latest outing, anarchist-thriller The East with Juno star Ellen Page, is set to land in cinemas in May.
Unlike their first collaboration when both handled scripting duties, this time Cahill will be writing I Origins alone. The film follows Pitt’s character, a molecular biologist, who together with Marling’s lab partner uncovers evidence which may change society as we know it. From that meagre offering of a synopsis so far, there are definite similarities to last year’s »

Marking Lynn Shelton’s return behind the camera following her acclaimed Your Sister’s Sister, Touchy Feely is yet another remarkable feature from one of the most unique voices in the industry.
Rosemarie DeWitt and Josh Pais are terrific as the co-leads of a brilliant ensemble cast. DeWitt plays Abby, a free-spirited massage therapist who is suddenly overcome by an aversion to contact with skin, rendering her incapacitated in both her profession and her love life with her boyfriend (Scoot McNairy).
Pais plays her brother, Paul, a quirky, uptight, and emotionally unavailable dentist whose daughter, Jenny (Ellen Page), helps his failing dentist practice find its feet when word begins to spread that he has a magical healing touch.
The two siblings start out about as different from one another as is possible. But over the course of the film, as Abby and Paul navigate their own personal journeys and begin »
