News: Pattinson: ‘Fame Ruined My Love Life’

I bet he has more offers now though !!!

Robert Pattinson fears he’ll never be able to find love – because he doesn’t want to drag a girlfriend into his crazy life.

The actor has enjoyed a meteoric rise to fame after landing the lead role of Edward Cullen in cult vampire movie Twilight.

Despite becoming one of Hollywood’s hottest hunks overnight, Pattinson insists fame and fortune haven’t come without a price – because the constant interest in his life has made him a “paranoid wreck”.

And the actor isn’t sure he could bring a partner into his spotlight because the pressure of having a famous boyfriend would be too hard.

He admits to Entertainment Tonight, “I’m always really worried about ruining their (girlfriends) lives.

“Especially with people that aren’t famous. It’s such a massive change. I’m kind of a paranoid wreck.

“It’s getting photographed. You have people who analyse your facial expressions to the tiniest degree. So you’re just trying to avoid getting photographed. You’re like, ‘Jesus, you can’t win.'”

News: Tatum Impressed Crew After Breaking His Nose In Fight Film

Thats really cool, haha. Love it how they call him a “pretty boy” which he very much is, but he is HOT.

Pin-up Channing Tatum tested his pretty boy status on the set of new movie Fighting after breaking his nose in a punch-up.

The actor impressed cast and crew when he insisted on carrying on and then simply asked a medic to “pop” his nose back into shape.

Co-star Terrence Howard still winces at the memory: “I was having coffee with the stuntmen watching those fight scenes and they were real. Channing broke his nose and had the trainer pop it into place.

“It took 10 minutes to stop the blood, and then he went back and continued the fight. That’s how real it was.

“If it were me, I’d call my manager, he’d call an ambulance and tell me to rest for a week! I don’t have that constitution.”

But Howard admits that wasn’t the case when he fractured his finger on the set of Hustle & Flow: “I broke it in a scene with Anthony Anderson and I wanted to go to the hospital, but I said, ‘Let’s keep on going.’ So I guess if you really believe in the character you’ll make those sacrifices.”

Thai Officials Ban Rogen Film

This has really amused me soooooo much. Especially as Zack and Miri, is such a mickey take off porn films, hahaha.

Seth Rogen‘s raunchy comedy Zack And Miri Make A Porno has been banned in Thailand – because officials fear it will lead to a spate of copycat movies.

Distribution company M Pictures launched an appeal after the country’s National Film Board outlawed the controversial comedy earlier this week (begs20Apr09).

A panel was set up to hear the case but after viewing the film, censors upheld the initial ruling and confirmed the ban will remain in place.

Explaining the decision, Culture Ministry permanent secretary Vira Rojpojchanarat says, “The screening of this film may encourage copycats here.”

Officials at the National Film Board said the ban was initially introduced because the movie’s sexual content was against Thailand’s “moral principles”.

Slade Signs As Eclipse Director

Third installment is on the go already 🙂 YAY !!!

The cast of the Twilight franchise are in for a scary ride when filming starts on the vampire series’ third outing Eclipse – horror moviemaker David Slade has been signed to the project.

Speculation over the director of the third bloodsucking movie has been rife over recent months, with Drew Barrymore and Juan Antonia Bayona both being linked to the coveted position.

Catherine Hardwicke broke records with her take on Twilight, while Chris Weitz is currently in charge of the forthcoming sequel New Moon.

But bosses at film studio Summit and author of the books from which the films are adapted, Stephenie Meyer, have given the green light for the third picture, Eclipse, to take a more sinister twist – by hiring scare master Slade.

The director is famous for his dark films, including Hard Candy in 2005, and has already worked with the vampire genre – directing 2007’s critically acclaimed 30 Days Of Night.

And Meyer is adamant Slade is the right guy for the job: “I am thrilled that David Slade will be directing Eclipse. He’s a visionary filmmaker who has so much to offer this franchise.

“From the beginning, we’ve been blessed with wonderful directorial talent for the Twilight Saga, and I’m so happy that Eclipse will be carrying on with that tradition.”

Dunst A Doubt For Spider-man 4

I bet she regrets the previous 3 she has done, as they are not really the best . . .

Spider-man may have to swing into action without his leading lady – movie bosses are still battling to persuade Kirsten Dunst to sign up for the fourth installment of the superhero franchise.

The 26 year old has starred in all three Spider-Man films as Mary Jane Watson, opposite leading man Tobey Maguire.

But while Maguire has confirmed he will appear in the fourth and fifth films in the franchise, Dunst is still pondering whether to rejoin the cast.

Director Sam Raimi says, “I’m hoping that she is going to come on board and I’ve got a meeting coming up with her. I think she would like to but I don’t want to speak on her behalf.”

While a source tells Britain’s Daily Express, “It had been presumed that Kristen would sign up for the fourth but she’s still not agreed. She needs to be assured that the story is going to be a strong one, in terms of her character. The films clearly wouldn’t be the same without her.”

Fox Not ‘On The Prowl’ For Efron

I think everyone should be after Zac, haha. Ok yes I am in the fan club hahaha.

Vivica A. Fox has lashed back at reports she’s hot for Hollywood heartthrob Zac Efron – insisting her comments about the actor’s good looks have been taken out of context.

The 44-year-old actress is candid about her affairs with younger men, but was stunned when gossips exaggerated her remarks about 21-year-old Efron and accused her of wanting to woo the star.

Fox told PopEater.com, “Zac Efron is just so gorgeous to me. He’s a hot piece. I want just to look at those beautiful blue eyes… They’re are just… ‘Wow!’ Muy caliente (very hot).”

But the actress insists she only has an innocent crush on Efron, who is dating his High School Musical co-star Vanessa Hudgens.

She says, “They said, ‘Out of all the actors out there, who do you find attractive?’ I said, ‘Zac Efron.’ I said he has nice blue eyes… and now they’re like, ‘Vivica’s on the prowl for Zac Efron.’ He has a girlfriend. I don’t do other people’s men.”

Third Da Vinci Code Movie Gets Go-ahead

I think thats the right thing to do, Dan Brown’s book really are popular. I have read The Da Vinci Code and thought it was fantastic. I have not read Angels and Demon’s yet, and really want to before I go to see the movie.

Fans of Dan Brown‘s The Da Vinci Code books will not have to wait long for another movie installment – the author’s latest sequel has been green-lighted by film bosses before the novel even hits the shops.

The film adaptation of The Da Vinci Code, starring Tom Hanks, was a box office smash in 2006, grossing more than $758 million (£505 million) worldwide.

The prequel, Angels & Demons, is due to hit cinemas in May, while Brown’s latest book The Lost Symbol – the follow-up to The Da Vinci Code – is slated for release in September.

And executives at Columbia Pictures, the studio behind the movies, have already given the go-ahead for a film version of the new novel – stepping up negotiations to lock down a deal for Brown’s latest work, according to Variety.com.

Angels & Demons will be released on 14 May.

Rourke Begged Boxing Coach Not To Give Up On Him

I just love anything about Mickey. I am so glad he managed to convince his coach that he wanted to box 🙂

Mickey Rourke‘s boxing career almost ended before it started – because his trainer insisted he wasn’t committed or disciplined enough to be a great fighter.

Top coach Freddie Roach, who is currently training Manny Pacquiao for his upcoming fight with Brit Ricky Hatton, refused to work with Rourke when the actor first approached him in 1990 – because The Wrestler star only turned up for training once in seven days.

Roach says, “I came out to Hollywood. I was here for seven days (and) he showed up in the gym one day in seven…. I ripped him so bad he actually cried.”

The actor remembers the harsh lesson he learned that day: “Freddie came into the gym one days and he goes, ‘Listen, I don’t train people to lose fights; you’re not running, you’re not doing this, you’re not doing that. I’m going back to Las Vegas.’

“I was making all kinds of excuses because my head was crazy… I was in tears. Freddie packed his bags and went back to Las Vegas.

“Freddie humiliated me, embarrassed me and reduced me to the fact that I was not giving 100 per cent, I was not being a professional and I was setting myself up to not be as good as I could be.”

But Rourke refused to give up – and kept begging his trainer to reconsider.

Roach recalls, “He called me every day for 30 days and then finally I said to him, ‘Ok, if I come back, the next day you have off is the one I give you.’

“I think he had discipline in his life for the first time ever.”

Rourke quit acting and trained to become a professional boxer. Roach coached him for seven of eight fights before Rourke retired from the ring unbeaten. He won half his fights by knock-outs.

What a fantastic line up !!!

Hollywood stars Uma Thurman, Meg Ryan, Whoopi Goldberg and Adrien Brody will head up the judging panel at this year’s Tribeca Film Festival in New York.

The actors will be joined by fellow celebrities James Franco, Mary-Kate Olsen, Bradley Cooper, Melissa Leo, Parker Posey and Morgan Spurlock, who are all among the 32 jurors at Robert De Niro‘s movie event, which kicks off on Wednesday.

The line-up was announced at a press conference in the Big Apple on Tuesday, which featured Thurman, director Spike Lee and festival founders De Niro and Jane Rosenthal.

And New York resident Thurman is delighted to play such a key role in the eighth annual festival.

She says, “For me and people who enjoy films, Tribeca has been a major event for which all look forward to with major anticipation. As a New Yorker, it’s wonderful to see the impact it has on the city.

“This year is especially exciting because I get to be a part of it as a juror.”

De Niro founded the event with Rosenthal and Craig Hatkoff to help revitalise the lower Manhattan area after the terrorist attacks of 9/11 – and he is proud to continue celebrating New York City as a major film-making centre.

He adds, “It’s great to see how much the festival has grown since we started it in 2002 and how it has impacted this neighbourhood.”

The Tribeca Film Festival, which will host the world premiere of Woody Allen‘s new movie Whatever Works on Wednesday, runs until 3 May.
