Cranston, Mikkelsen, Wilson Join Kung Fu Panda 3

Leave a comment

The already star-powered cast of Kung Fu Panda 3 will see the addition of Bryan Cranston, Mads Mikkelsen, and Rebel Wilson.

They join the likes of Jack Black, Angelina Jolie, and Seth Rogen in the tDreamWorks Animation threequel. “Continuing on his now legendary adventures of awesomeness, Po must face two hugely epic, but very different threats: one supernatural and the other a little closer to home,” according to the studio’s official statement.

Given the $1.3 billion global gross and two Oscar nominations earned by first two installments, that story appears to be a recipe for success.

Even though Cranston currently portrays Walter White in the intense and dramatic Breaking Bad, his previous animation work on Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted and his comedic turn on the long-running Malcolm in the Middle make him a great fit for the silliness of the Kung Fu Panda movies.

By The Huffington Post News Editors

To celebrate April Fools’ Day and simultaneously viral market the new film “This Is The End,” Seth Rogen, James Franco and Danny McBride have put together a trailer for “Pineapple Express 2.” This time, they must assassinate Woody Harrelson (played by Jonah Hill, because obviously). Thug life, indeed.

“This Is The End” is Rogen’s apocalypse comedy where the actor cast his famous friends as variations on themselves (Franco, Hill and McBride are joined by Craig Robinson, Jay Baruchel and a cast of dozens). The comedy was co-written by Rogen and Evan Goldberg (“Superbad”) and co-directed by the pair as well.

“We thought it’d be funny to see really famous people die in super graphic ways,” Rogen said at WonderCon this weekend (via EW.com). “People were into it. At first we thought they’d be insulted or something like that — and some of them were — but most of them weren’t. They were into it.”

Samsung Galaxy ad pokes fun at Super Bowl trademark rules

Leave a comment

Samsung, which knows a thing or two about patent infringement cases, is poking fun at Super Bowl trademark rules in a new commercial that promotes its Galaxy smartphones.

The ad features comedic actors Seth Rogen and Paul Rudd, who both played parts in the movie “Knocked Up,” with Rogen also known for his work in “Superbad” and Rudd recently starring in “This is 40.”

In the spot, a corporate suit says “Samsung. The next big thing. You two. Ideas?”

Rogen, Black and Wilson as The Ghostbusters

Leave a comment

Who you gonna call? Apparently, Seth Rogen, Jack Black and Rainn Wilson!
Tomorrow night, Film Independent LACMA and filmmaker Jason Reitman (Juno, Up in the Air) will host a one-night-only live-read of the original Ghostbusters script. While Reitman has staged numerous live-reads in the past, this will be the first event centered around the work of his father, Ghostbusters director Ivan Reitman.
“It was a part of my life growing up. I just thought it would be fun,” the younger Reitman told The Hollywood Reporter. “I understand the energy around that film. To me it’s similar to The Princess Bride live-read we did last year. People have a relationship with the film that goes beyond normal movies.”
