Hollywood is really blowing up with news this week, good thing for us we like to pass it along. Here’s some new news from tinsel town, which we lovingly refer to as Hollywood Crack:
Avatar 2….& 3???: You bet. James Cameron has confirmed that he wills start writing scripts for two more Avatar movies next year. However, the movies won’t hit the big screen for four years. Both would be shot in the stunning 3D that made Avatar such a hit. Luck for the sequel to come out December 2014 and the third installment to hit a year later in 2015.
The Hobbit: Won’t be leaving New Zealand after all. Government officials are
ponying up 25 million US dollars to make legislative changes to help redefine what a working actor is in the country. Um, is it that difficult to define?
