Nathan Fillion and
James Gunn go way back after working together on
Slither and
Gunn’s first superhero movie –
Super. So it’s no surprise now to learn that Fillian will appear again in Gunn’s follow up to Guardians of the Galaxy. Sort of. Photos from the
Atlanta set reveal not only an
Earthbound sequence being shot, but a movie theatre with posters for the
Simon Williams Film Festival.
Fans will recognize the name of
Williams as the alter-ego of
Marvel’s Wonder Man.
After the smashing success of
The Jungle Book and the live action
Cinderella surpassing expectations,
Disney’s winning game of live action remakes and adaptations will continue moving forward, far into the future. In an announcement yesterday, Disney claimed five new dates to release three new “untitled” fairy tale movies along with two live action movies that are also untitled. The five movies will most likely match up with some previously announced movies in development.

Empire Magazine is moving on from their superhero coverage to busting some ghosts. The Ghostbusters remake directed by
Paul Feig is currently featured on the cover of the upcoming issues, featuring the all female cast with a familiar ghost taking center stage, Slimer. Along with the covers, a trio of banners were also released showing characters
Kristen Wiig,
Kate McKinnon and
Patty Jones, accompanied by what appears to be some of their catch phrases.
THR is reporting that Sony is in the process of closing deals with director
Rob Letterman and writer
Darren Lemke to return for another round of thrills and chills in a sequel to
Goosebumps. No word just yet on whether
Jack Black will return as author
RL Stine, though as of now, reps are meeting with the studio and the plan will be for
Black to return.
From a report in THR,
Lionsgate is moving forward with its adaptation of the video game property
Borderlands, hiring
Section 6 writer
Aaron Berg to pen the script.
The project, based on
Gearbox Software’s popular first-person shooter game that launched in 2009, sees a story set on a planet called
Pandora, a frontier land that's been abandoned by a mega-corporation.
Arad Productions, run by
Avi Arad and his son Ari Arad, is producing the film.
