Word from the set of The Incredible Hulk is that there is tension between Marvel Studios and Edward Norton, who was promised a measure of creative control for his participation in the project. See, Norton doesn't like the cut of the film the way that Marvel's doing it, and is sort of threatening to remove his support from the project unless they let him supervise the next cut.
Now, for a franchise that's already had to hit reset, due to the fact that it didn't work so well the first time, the withdrawal of support from the lead actor would spell disaster, and potentially put at risk over $100 million in cost, plus whatever goodwill and marketing the film has in the hopper. In other words, Norton has them over a barrel...and you wouldn't like him when he's angry.
In the meantime, you should watch the teaser trailer for the film, which is great.

Quick! Think of a NASCAR driver! Did you get Jeff Gordon? Yeah, we did, too, which is probably why he's going to be on the cover of NASCAR 09 for EA Sports. It just makes sense that the Rainbow Warrior would be the face man for the game that details the life and times of a NASCAR driver.

Christopher Nolan is doing some interesting work on the character of Two-Face in the upcoming Dark Knight film. The character is being shot twice, with actor Aaron Eckhart both in and out of make-up, and playing the character differently, so that you have a good idea that Harvey Dent is, in fact, a psychopath with a dual personality.
Mila Kunis, who you will no doubt remember as the hot little number who once was one of the stars of That 70's Show, will star opposite Mark Wahlberg in Max Payne, the movie based on the Rockstar videogame.

Though it wasn't the most well-reviewed movie of the year, 10,000 B.C. really cleaned up at the box office over the weekend, pulling an impressive $35 million. The film, made by Roland Emmerich, of Independence Day and Godzilla fame, did well primarily because it opened against...well, the nearest competitor was College Road Trip, the newest Martin Lawrence vehicle, which made $14 million.
