This poster is certainly interesting, no? It looks so good!!

Director Lee Daniels has only helmed three films, but each one has boasted a fascinating, eclectic cast: There was 2005′s Shadowboxer, starring, among others, Cuba Gooding Jr., Helen Mirren, and Macy Gray; 2009′s Oscar-nominated Precious, starring the Oscar-nominated Gabourey Sidibe, Oscar winner Mo’Nique, and Mariah Carey; and now The Paperboy, starring Matthew McConaughey, John Cusack, Nicole Kidman, and Zac Efron. And seeing the latter four actors together on one poster has left me really intrigued.

The film, which is adapted from Pete Dexter’s novel, centers on a reporter and his brother who attempt to get an innocent man off death row in the mid-1960s. Efron’s always looked best in mid-20th century garb (see: Hairspray), and the retro poster is no exception. (It’s rare that an actor looks so good, he pushes McConaughey into the background.) But the poster’s real draw is Cusack, whose eyes are so intense, it’s easy to question his character’s proclaimed innocence. I’m in — are you?

‘New Years Eve’ premiered in Hollywood last night, and most of the movie’s many stars were there!

Michelle Pfeiffer wore a beautiful purple Dolce & Gabbana dress (what do you think about her shoe choice?). She looks incredible for 53!!

15-year-old Abigail Breslin wore a cute ballerina dress with a wire petticoat. Looks cute on her!

Alyssa Milano could definitely look better. I know she just had a baby, and I’m not even talking about the extra weight. I think the dress is ill-fitting.

Sofia Vergara is beautiful, but her dress looks so budget. Meh, not a fan.

Hilary Swank is wearing Elie Saab, which I don’t totally hate…. only slightly hate.

And FERGIE…. ugh, don’t even get me started. She’s wearing a dress by Monique Lhuilllier. The dress might be okay, I’m just not a big Fergie person. I cannot unsee what she wore yesterday.

Johnny Depp has been tipped as the hot favorite to play Michael Jackson in a biopic about the life of the King of Pop.

Other contenders include Usher, Zac Efron, Will Smith or Justin Timberlake.

The director will have his hands full trying to cast the right person with a source revealing: “It’s going to be one mammoth task trying to get someone good enough at acting and dancing to fill Michael Jackson’s moon-walking shoes. They will need someone with edge, with uniqueness about them.”

Ghostbuster director Ivan Reitman and Up In The Air producer Tom Pollock are currently in talks regarding the project.

Who do you think should be cast as Michael Jackson?

Zac Efron celebrated his 24th birthday last night in London, England, with champagne at the Chinese restaurant Hakkasan.

Zac and about 15 friends (including a movie producer) partied the night away.

Rumor has it, Zac is in talks to play a Marvel superhero, Namor the Sub-Mariner.

Marvel movies have become big box-office draws, turning Robert Downey, Jr. into Iron Man; Chris Hemsworth into Thor; and Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield into Spider-Man. Chris Evans will be playing patriotic Marvel superhero Captain America this weekend, and many actors and actresses have experienced success playing the X-Men. So since Marvel superhero movies are so successful, it’s safe to say that Zac should be extremely flattered to be offered a role in one, right?

There’s just one tiny little problem — he’s been offered a role playing Namor the Sub-Mariner.

The Sub-Mariner is one of Marvel’s earliest superheroes, debuting in 1939. He’s the mutant son of a princess from Atlantis and a human sea captain with a variety of superpowers, including strength, speed, flight, and the ability to breathe underwater (he’s like a merman with legs). The Sub-Mariner has been portrayed in comic books with Spock-like eyebrows and pointed ears, wearing a green Speedo® that looks like fish scales. In short, he looks just a bit silly, and it’s really hard to imagine Zac Efron– or anyone– playing him.

However, Namor has teamed up with the Avengers and interacted with some of the characters from the X-Men in the Marvel universe, so landing the part could possibly lead to more lucrative movie opportunities for Zac.

What do you think about Zac playing a superhero? Hey, I say if Andrew Garfield can pull off Spider-Man, anything is possible.

Recently, photos of High School Musical friends and stars 26-year-old Ashley Tisdale and 23-year-old Zac Efron surfaced of the pair frolicking on the beach and having fun looking pretty innocent. Of course, people picked up that the pair looked a bit flirtatious and may have hooked-up over the 4th of July weekend, a claim that actress Ashley turned down via her Twitter account.

Ashley Tisdale is setting the record straight about her relationship with Zac Efron. Rumors raged over the weekend that the High School Musical co-stars were too-close-for comfort after photos of the duo being playful along the shore of Malibu surfaced. Ashley’s bikini-clad fun with Zac led to speculation that she was breaking the best friend code and betraying Vanessa Hudgens.

“Don’t believe all pictures. People r gonna come up with stuff to say bc it sells! I had such a great birthday party with my friends,” Ashley Tweeted, adding, “Family, and BOYFRIEND Scott. I will not let stupid rumors ruin all the fun we had! Xoxo”

Ashley has been happily dating music video producer Scott Speer.

Zac and Vanessa ended their relationship earlier this year.

Friends can’t give each other bikini clad piggyback rides? Apparently they can…

Is there anything going on between Zac Efron and Ashley Tisdale? The ‘High School Musical’ stars spent their fourth of July holiday together!

Zac Efron gives Ashley Tisdale a ride on his shoulders at a 4th of July party in Malibu!

UPDATE: No such luck…. the two are just buds! Too Fab has the scoop:

After some curious photos surfaced this weekend of the two looking very cozy during Ash’s birthday party, the rumors started — suggesting Efron had moved on from his ex-girlfriend Vanessa Hudgens with another “High School Musical” star, one who also happened to be one Hudgens’ best friends.

Moments ago, Tisdale responded to the Disney dating controversy, tweeting “Don’t believe all pictures. People r gonna come up with stuff to say bc it sells! I had such a great birthday party with my friends, Family, and BOYFRIEND Scott. I will not let stupid rumors ruin all the fun we had! Xoxo”

Anyone looking for more proof that the two are just friends need look no further than the photo below — showing Ashley getting a kiss on the cheek from boyfriend Scott Speer the night of the party.
