Megan Fox wants to play "Carrie" in Stephen King's remake

Megan Fox in her prom scene in "Jennifer's Body" looking like actress Cissy Spacek in "Carrie", one of writer Diablo Cody's favorite horror movies.

"It was announced last week that MGM is moving forward on a planned remake of Stephen King's Carrie, with Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa penning a screenplay that will remain truer to the novel than Brian De Palma's 1976 adaptation did.
Today, it has been revealed that Megan Fox, despite being one of the most attractive women on the planet and twenty-five years old, is actively pursuing the lead character of Carrie, a homely picked-upon high school outcast. Casting that will surely have Stephen King rolling over in his customized, California King-sized casket that he uses as a bed. The actress doesn't think that her looks or age will stand in the way of her landing the role.

Here is what an insider close to the actress had to say:
"Megan is a huge fan of the original and would love the chance to play the lead. She's 25 now but she's sure she could still do justice to teenage Carrie. She's told her people to make it happen."
The same source goes onto claim that Megan Fox is seeking the lead in Carrie to distance herself from her Transformers persona. That is why she has been adamant about turning down the role of Wonder Woman in a theatrical version of the DC Comics character". Source: www.movieweb.com

Taylor Lautner talks about imprinting scene with Kristen Stewart in "Breaking Dawn"

"Taylor Lautner slipped up and told MTV about a scene form the upcoming second half of the Breaking Dawn movie.

The movie has been kept a secret for so long for fear that the fans would find out too much about it before it comes out but Lautner apparently didn’t get the news flash before he told MTV about a scene where Jacob gets beat up by Bella.“We did a scene in the backyard of the Cullen house where Bella (Stewart) gets mad at me,” Lautner revealed.
“She just learned that I imprinted on her daughter, and she is literally throwing me around the backyard. So it was pretty fun to see Kristen try and act all tough. She’s a vampire; she’s chucking me across the yard into trees and stuff. It was funny.” Source: www.current-movie.reviews.com

Her recent relationships with Jake Gyllenhaal and Joe Jonas ended in heartbreak, but the 'Love Story' hitmaker is optimistic she'll find the right guy - eventually.

"There are no rules when it comes to love. I just try to let love surprise me because you never know who you're going to fall in love with,” Contactmusic quoted her as telling InStyle magazine.


"Two women is a big guy fantasy that looks better on paper" -Charlie Sheen in PLAYBOY magazine, 2001

PLAYBOY: Are you still paying for sex?

SHEEN: [Shakes his head] I shut that down. I did it a couple times after I got sober and it didn't feel like it was in keeping with the kind of progress I'm making. It felt like the old me. It felt cheap and stupid. They had more fun than I did.

PLAYBOY: Maybe they should have paid you.
SHEEN: I didn't want to mention that [smiles].
PLAYBOY: You once said that paying for sex was really paying for them to leave when you're done.

SHEEN: To a degree, but also it was about avoiding all that hassle I would encounter going out, hanging out, picking up, taking home, transporting, blah blah blah. All the lies, the deceit. Promising to call and not calling. That's old behavior.

According to film producer Brad Wyman, his friend Charlie Sheen told him, “These guys pushed me to be the Charlie character, because it always helped the ratings. Here I am clean and sober and ready to go to work and nobody wants to go to work. I really don’t understand why.” Wyman adds, “That’s what started the diatribes.”

Charlie Sheen is already officially divorced from Brooke Mueller

Charlie Sheen has had a large number of lady friends of late, but only one of them has his heart. While the "Two and a Half Men" star has been partying it up with porn stars and prostitutes, you can't pay for true love. Charlie Sheen's newest love is a 25-year old woman (ex-nanny and graphic designer) named Natalie Kenly.

EstablishedMen.com -- a social network for rich men seeking needy women -- put the offer on the table earlier this week ... $3,000,000 for Charlie Sheen to endorse the sugar daddy website for three years. But EM wants even more from Sheen. Charlie would be crowned PRESIDENT of Established Men -- running advertising, sales, and promotions -- in return for a 50% interest in the company.

Charlie Sheen in Penelope Spheeris's "The Boys next door" (ending scene)

"Before he was famous, though, Sheen costarred in a nifty little B movie called The Boys Next Door (it was his first starring role — he was part of the young-gun ensemble in Red Dawn the year before), and if you watch it now, there are a lot of moments that fast-forward you to the Charlie Sheen we’ve come to know and be mesmerized by on whatever tabloid news show he’s popping up on at any given moment. In The Boys Next Door, Sheen and Maxwell Caulfield play California teenagers who celebrate the end of high school by going on a road trip that turns into a rampage.
The director was Penelope Spheeris, transitioning into dramatic features after the 1981 Los Angeles hardcore punk documentary The Decline of Western Civilization, and Spheeris gives her two stars room to roam. The Charlie Sheen you see in this movie isn’t just a tense and hungry actor. If John Hughes had ever made a dead-serious comedy about a heartless pair of sociopaths, that movie might have looked something like The Boys Next Door. It’s like a Hughes film crossed with In Cold Blood. Sheen, fresh-faced and scowling, with thatchy black hair and knitted eyebrows, looks in his white T-shirt like an Archie-comics version of Sid Vicious, but his character, Bo, is meant to be the pair’s quarter-of-the-way normal sidekick". Source: insidemovies.ew.com


The "boys next door" (directed by Penelope Spheeris in 1985) are Roy Alston (Maxwell Caulfield) and Bo Richards (Charlie Sheen), typical California teens freshly graduated from high school. Daunted by the prospect of the real world, the boys decide to go on one last fling in L.A. But it's not all clean, wholesome fun; in fact, Caulfield and Sheen launch their weekend bash by beating up a gas-station attendant, throwing a glass bottle at an old woman, and murdering gay-bar patron Chris (Paul C. Dancer). Somewhere along the line, Bo becomes repelled by their violence spree, but Roy seems to be sexually aroused by all the misery he's causing. And so it goes, without real rhyme or reason, until the bloody denouement.

So it's a natural disaster that's threatening humanity? Did you listen to the scientists like we said? Tsk. Not to worry, because although extreme weather might be terrifying, it's also stupid. Outsmart a Twister-esque tornado by simpling wrapping your belt around a pipe! Do as that Gyllenhaal boy did in The Day After Tomorrow and simply outrun frost on foot! Easy! In your face, weather!
