New 3-D Star Wars Trilogy on the Horizon?

22 October 2009 8:18 AM, PDT | Reelzchannel.com | See recent ReelzChannel news »

File this one in the "We'll Believe It When We See It" category, but MarketSaw is saying an "absolutely connected," "trusted source" has let slip that, in addition to re-releasing the entire 6-part Star Wars trilogy in 3-D, George Lucas is planning on creating a new trilogy of Star Wars movies, filmed entirely in 3-D.

The article goes on to claim that Lucas is only interested in producing the trilogy, not directing, and that he may tap his friend Steven Spielberg, or perhaps Francis Ford Coppola, to helm one or all of the films.

Again, we'll believe it when we see it.

It was also reported by the site that they're sources indicate the new trilogy will not be directed by George Lucas, although he will still produce, and that heavyweight directors Steven Speilberg and Frances Ford Coppola could be in consideration to direct these new films.

The site is also saying that these films moving forward is heavily dependent on the success (or failure) of James Cameron's 3D epic Avatar, which is set for a December 18 release. It was also reported that work is under way on converting the original trilogy - Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope, Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back and »

Family Guy: Something, Something, Something, Dark Side is the upcoming hour-long episode of the Fox animated series Family Guy and the sequel episode to the Star Wars parody Blue Harvest, retelling the story of Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back as Blue Harvest did with Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, recasting characters from Family Guy into roles from the film. The episode was originally scheduled to air as the Family Guy 7th season finale, but has been pushed back to season 8. Like the previous installment, the poster for Dark Side is based on the design of an actual Star Wars poster. "...While on the planet 'Hoth' and being chased by 'Darth Vader' ('Stewie Griffin'), young 'Luke Skywalker' ('Chris Griffin') has a vision of his dead mentor 'Obi-Wan Kenobi' ('Herbert'), who tells him to go to the planet 'Dagobah' and learn the ways of »

Profiling Hogwarts' Teaching Staff In 'Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince'

16 July 2009 10:30 AM, PDT | MTV Movies Blog | See recent MTV Movies Blog news »

Before Bill Nighy confirmed he was going to be joining the cast of “Harry Potter,” he wasn’t being facetious when he complained that he was the last big British actor to not be involved in the series. With heavy hitters like the late Richard Harris, Kenneth Branagh and Ralph Fiennes weaving in and out of the series, who can blame him for feeling left out?

The professors at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in particular possess acting talent which comes from the upper echelons of British celeb royalty. Young Americans might not recognize all of their faces outside of "Potter," especially those who are masked behind beards and more extensive makeup. So we've decided to profile the top Hogwarts talents for you here; not their fictional professorships, but rather the reasons you should look for them in roles outside the "Harry Potter" universe.
