Wednewsday 7th March

Good News: director Josh Trank, who arrived in style with his debut Chronicle, is in talks for both The Fantastic Four reboot and a standalone Venom film. We already know he has a knack for superpowers and imagine what he can do with a blockbuster-sized budget.

Bad News: they keep making awful films based on Dan Brown's awful books. A new writer, Danny Strong, has been hired to rework the script for The Lost Symbol and Tom Hanks is set to return for the third time as problem-solver and master of exposition, Robert Langdon.

Mad News: Boy Scouts Vs Zombies had been green-lit and will be directed by Etan Cohen, co-writer of Tropic Thunder. But which is more outrageous: the plot or the choice of director?

Sundance News: Robert Redford is bringing America's favourite indie festival to the O2 Arena and the official website has been launched. Click here for tickets and the fourteen-strong line-up.

Trailer News: the Men in Black 3 trailer doesn't bode well for this third outing of the alien regulation agency. The trailer is low on laughs, low on villains and far too low on Tommy Lee Jones. That said, we finally get a glimpse of Josh Brolin's Tommy Lee Jones impression and it might just save the film.
