‘Prometheus 2′ is Quietly Moving Forward
When we last left Ridley Scott's 'Prometheus,' the film had grossed a weak $126 million domestically but a slightly more promising $400 million worldwide. Those numbers didn't suggest that a sequel was going to be coming any time soon, while writer Damon Lindelof announced he wouldn't be involved with the follow up, which suggested that a sequel was never going to happen. But there's hope for a sequel yet as star Noomi Rapace has reported that the script is being worked on right now.

‘Star Wars’ Rumor: ‘Knights of the Old Republic’ Film Could be in the Works

Tom Cruise’s ‘Jack Reacher’ is Heading for a Sequel
December is often a surprising month at the box office as many films that never top the box office end up making a lot of money. The Tom Cruise vehicle 'Jack Reacher' opened right before Christmas and had a $15 million opening weekend. Sounds weak right? And yet the picture has grossed nearly $80 million domestically, and over $200 million worldwide. Which is why Paramount is talking about a sequel.
‘Death Wish’ Loses Joe Carnahan

Megan Fox Joins ‘Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles’: Is She Our New April O’Neil?

Today they released a new photo of Hugh Jackman playing the titular character.
‘Stoker’ Featurette: Nicole Kidman’s Family is a Little Unhinged
Often the early months of the year offer few good movies, which made us nervous about Park Chan-wook's 'Stoker.' It's due out in a couple weeks, but word out of Sundance and other screenings has been great (we rather liked it ourselves). Now there's a featurette that talks about the film's Southern Gothic flavor.
