RIDDLE ME THIS, RIDDLE ME THAT: IS ROBIN WILLIAMS THE RIDDLER IN THE NEW BATMAN?

Now, before you get your hopes up, this is just something that Robin Williams would like himself. One of the best comedians ever, while speaking to "Empire Magazine", Williams has admitted that he would like to become Batman's nemesis since he loves the famous superhero franchise: I would do Batman in a second, playing anyone. I'd play The Riddler in the next one, although it would be hard to top Heath Ledger as the villain and I'm a little hairy for tights. He also added that he was offered roles in previous sequels, but he didn't get them in the end: The Batman films have screwed me twice before: years ago they offered me The Joker and then gave it to Jack Nicholson, then they offered me The Riddler and gave it to Jim Carrey.
As HOLLYWOOD SPY previously reported, The Riddler might be one of the villains in Christopher Nolan's third brutal attack on Batman, and according to some rumors one of the candidates for the role is young Joseph Gordon Levitt. Everybody knows I don't have a high opinion about Nolan's take on the Batman, but I like the idea of Robin Williams doing a playful Riddler and bringing back the sparkle and humor that Nicholson, Carrey and Tommy Lee Jones had given to Batman films. He was stunning in "Insomnia" and "One Hour Photo", showing that he has a dramatic talent beside the comedic one.

MARVEL UPDATES: TOMMY LEE JONES JOINS "CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER", ALICE EVE JOINS "X-MEN: FIRST CLASS"

Today I have some Marvel updates for you: the new casting solutions for "X-Men: First Class" and "Captain America: the First Avenger". As you know one of our favourite British talents Michael Fassbender has been signed in officially for the role of young Magneto in "X-Men: First Class" and thus the rumors we've talked about for a month have been confirmed, but now he has a new colleague in the movie, beside James McAvoy who will portray Professor Xavier: blond beauty Alice Eve ("She's Out of My League") will portray Emma Frost, aka the White Queen, in the new installment of the mutant saga. Rosamund Pike will play Moira McTaggert, the assistant to Professor X, while Benjamin Walker will appear as a young Henry McCoy, or The Beast.
On the other front, the rumors about Tommy Lee Jones playing Colonel Phillips in "Captain America: The First Avenger" have also been confirmed and he will portray the man who will recruit Chris Evans to join the secret experiment that will make Captain America out of him.

TOM HARDY REVEALS EXCLUSIVE UPDATES ON "MAD MAX: FURY ROAD"

Here's a story for my boys and pics for my girls :)One of our favourite British lads, ultratalented Tom Hardy has just given an interview to "FirstShowing" revealing some interesting things about the upcoming reboot of the popular sf adventure "Mad Max" in which he will play the lead role. According to Hardy new "Mad Max" will revisit the updated world from the second movie and his character will have the same amount of grit, rawness and authenticity. Experts who worked on "Lord of the Rings" will do CGI in "Mad Max" as well, but as Hardy says they will do the action the Chris Nolan way with real big rigs, big explosions, big car crashes, big fight scenes. The shooting will probably last for a whole year and Tom Hardy must drop 30 pounds and start with stunt and fight training, in order to achieve the new look for Mad Max which he explained very vividly: Imagine a hungry wolf. Or like when you put a cat in the bath. You grab a cat by the throat and stuff it under the fucking water. You know what it looks like? That's what I'm going to look like. But like a puma. Very hungry and very dangerous. It's imperative. This is the kind of guy who's not well. So I have to create that reality.
With the budget of $100 million "Mad Max: Fury Road" is supposed to start filming later this year down in Australia.
