Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Scarlett Johansson loosely attached to "Breathers: A Zombie's Lament"

"Joseph Gordon-Levitt (Inception) and Scarlett Johansson (Iron Man 2) may soon be lending their talents to a “zombie comedy.” Scarlett Johansson's new Dolce & Gabbana cosmetics

Pajiba is reporting that the two are “loosely attached” to Breathers: A Zombie’s Lament based on S.G. Browne’s 2009 novel of the same name.

Currently, Diablo Cody(Juno) is set to produce the script by Geoff Latulippe (Going the Distance). Joseph Gordon-Levitt filming "Live with It" in Vancouver, Canada, March 17, 2010.

Per the report, Latulippe’s script is being circulated to potential directors as I type, meaning Gordon-Levitt and Johansson’s involvement may be either confirmed or denied sooner rather than later.Scarlett Johansson at Comic Con 2010

Browne’s novel is described as a romantic comedy about a dead man named Andy who finds himself brought back to life as a middle-aged zombie. Andy must then “figure out it means to live as an Un-dead in a society that denies his kind basic rights.” I’ll trust you to interpret the metaphorical social commentary from there. If cast, one would assume that Gordon-Levitt would portray Andy with Johansson playing Andy’s love interest (hence the “romantic comedy” description)". Source: www.collider.com

Natalie Portman at 67th Venice Film Festival for "Black Swan"

Natalie Portman and actor Vincent Cassel attend the "Black Swan" photocall during the 67th Venice Film Festival on September 1, 2010 in Venice, Italy.

Natalie Portman (wearing a red dress custom-made by Rodarte with Swarovski crystals), Darren Aronofsky and Vincent Cassel attend the Opening Ceremony during the 67th Venice Film Festival at the Sala Grande Palazzo Del Cinema on September 1, 2010 in Italy.

“One of the best things about the film is the casting of Natalie. She took the part and ran with it. I don't know if when I was working with the writers we were consciously channeling Natalie or Natalie somehow transformed herself to the part, but they grew together. I first talked with Natalie about this project at least 10 years ago. We were in Times Square and had a coffee at the old Howard Johnson. I had this idea of setting something in the ballet world. It was very loose. I didn't have a script. And then I found out she was fascinated by ballet and wanted to play a dancer.” -Darren Aronofsky

"What It's About: The Focker clan is back with more antics! ANTICS! Gay Focker and his wife Pam have hung with the parents, gotten married and started building their life together. There are kids in the picture. And now Pam's dad Jack is worried about who will steer the family correctly once he's gone, so he turns to his lovable male nurse son-in-law. Shenanigans undoubtedly ensure.
Who's In It: Ben Stiller, Robert De Niro, Teri Polo, Blythe Danner, Barbra Streisand and Owen Wilson all return. Dustin Hoffman was only recently confirmed to be returning as the elder Focker as well. New to the cast this time are Jessica Alba, Laura Dern, Rob Huebel and Harvey Keitel. "Nick and Norah" director Chris Weitz is at the helm.
Why You Should Care: "Focker" puns really never get old. And maybe it's just me, but Ben Stiller's neurotic ravings have been missed. Plus, as the trailer revealed, Stiller and De Niro will go toe-to-toe in a birthday party brawl. And let's not forget the Hoffman/Streisand power combo. Seeing those two together again will be a hoot.

Alba said, “I loved all the fight scene stuff I got to do in Machete since I have always had a soft spot for action projects, especially since my adult acting career really began because of Dark Angel. There is one scene in Machete that still was my favorite to film and it involved me killing someone via a stiletto. It was fun because I spend so much time with stilettos on, and I must say it’s far more fun to kill with them than it is to wear them.”

“You always take a leap of faith when you work with directors, but with someone like Robert, he’s always got everyone’s best interests at heart and somehow it ends up making his movies that much stronger. I think you see that passion on screen in anything he’s ever directed,” Alba added. Source: www.dreadcentral.com

"Inception" Timeline graphic

"Death is not an event in life: we do not live to experience death. If we take eternity to mean not infinite temporal duration but timelessness, then eternal life belongs to those who live in the present. Our life has no end in the way in which our visual field has no limits." — philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein

"Up to this point in his career, Jake Gyllenhaal can be found, most notably, in an unique and surreal cult film ("Donnie Darko"), in sharply observed American indies ("The Good Girl," "Lovely & Amazing"), tense Middle East conflict dramas ("Jarhead," "Rendition"), a David Fincher-directed serial-killer thriller ("Zodiac"), an English-language remake of a Danish dogma piece ("Brothers"), and an Oscar-winning love story between two men ("Brokeback Mountain," opposite Heath Ledger, of course).

"Rian Johnson’s sci-fi thriller Looper, starring Bruce Willis and Joseph Gordon-Levitt, is scheduled to begin filming in January 2011, according to Production Weekly.
The script, written by Johnson (Brick, The Brothers Bloom), is set in the near future a few decades before the invention of time travel. An unseen crime syndicate sends its victims back in time where the bodies are shot and disposed of by blunderbuss-wielding killers called “loopers.”
Gordon-Levitt is one of these loopers, carrying out his deadly duty until the arrival of his future, 57-year-old self (played by Willis). Unable to “close his loop” and end his future, Joe and “Old Joe” go on the run from the syndicate. It’s very 12 Monkeys, but the characters, particularly a woman named Sara, are reminiscent of early entries in The Terminator series. A telekinesis mutation only amplifies the action and mind-bending suspense. I checked out one of the early drafts and it is one of the best scripts I have ever read. This is absolutely a project to watch for, sci-fi fans.Johnson’s latest and Duncan Jones’ upcoming film Source Code are two excitingly fresh perspectives on time travel that I can only hope will reinvigorate the genre. While Ridley Scott’s Alien prequel is worrying fans of the classic original(s) and the Star Trek series is gearing up for its twelfth space mission, a new generation of bright filmmakers — those two, plus District 9’s Neill Blomkamp, Tron: Legacy’s Joseph Kosinski, Carl Rinsch and several others — are ensuring science fiction will continue to be a source of creativity, limitless possibilities, and boundary-breaking technology long after Scott, James Cameron, and George Lucas hang it up. Hyperbolic, maybe, but I’m geeking out over what’s to come". Source: www.newsinfilm.com
