Josh Hutcherson in Lionsgate's 'The Hunger Games'

With a key role in the blockbuster franchise “The Hunger Games,” actor Josh Hutcherson could very easily do nothing (work-wise) in-between the releases of the second, third and fourth films and still maintain a level of popularity in Hollywood for the next few years. Instead of resting on his laurels however, Hutcherson has several lower-profile projects lined up, including the recently-announced movie “Ape,” for which he’ll serve as star and producer.

According to The Wrap, "Ape" is billed as a dark psychological thriller that revolves around a young man’s struggle with mental illness, love and a deep-rooted family secret. Miguel Sapochnik ("Repo Men") has been tapped to direct the

Antje Trauein as Faoro in Warner Bros.' 'Man of Steel'

Okay, enough with the dreamy, melancholy Terrence Malick-ish tone and imagery of the previous "Man of Steel" trailers. This is a Superman movie, after all, and Superman came from something called "Action Comics," which means there's going to be plenty of, well, action to go along with all the existential angst in director Zack Snyder's bold new reboot.

Superman (whether he's actually called that or not in this new movie) can fly and punch buildings and shoot heat lasers out of his eyes... and he's got some super-enemies that can do the same thing.

The new trailer gives us a better look at Krypton's most notorious war criminal General Zod (Michael Shannon) and his gorgeous but deadly companion Faora (Antje Traue). Faora is certainly reminiscent of Sarah Douglas' hot n' deadly Ursa from "Superman II" (1980) and somehow manages to be even more sinister than Zod, with

Greta Gerwig in IFC Films' 'Frances Ha'

While bromances flourish – doctors, racecar drivers and superheroes bond regularly -- memorable movies about best girlfriends are a rare species. But in that environment, “Frances Ha,” the brilliant black-and-white comic collaboration between star-writer Greta Gerwig (“To Rome with Love”) and writer-director Noah Baumbach (“Greenberg”), is a game-changer.

Best friends since college, happy-go-lucky Frances (Gerwig) and roommate Sophie (Mickey Sumner), now in their late twenties, share the same bed and the same inside jokes. Frances quips that they are like an old lesbian couple without the sex.

It's expected to go for about $90,000.

More amazing than the expected price is the manner in which the watch was discovered. The U.K.'s Independent reports that several years ago, a bargain hunter spotted the timepiece at a yard sale. It was purchase for less than $40.

For the third and final chapter of the record-breaking R-rated comedy franchise “The Hangover," the original gang has been assembled for one last raucous romp. Zach Galifianakis, Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms, Ken Jeong, Heather Graham and even baby Tyler (or Carlos, so named by Galifianakis’s character Alan).

People magazine reports that Tyler, who in 2009 was played mostly by baby brother-sister twins Grant and Avery Holmquist, is all grown up now and a fun part of the story in the third film. This time around, Tyler is played only by Grant, who at age 4 at the time of filming, won the role despite an initial casting call for 6-year-old actors.

When asked about the choice, director Todd Phillips told HitFix that he "had to” use the original kiddo in the part because everyone loved the bond between Alan and Tyler/Carlos in the first “Hangover” movie. In writing that scene Phillips said he knew the reunion would play well for the audience.

Rain at Cannes (Photo: Venturelli/WireImage)The first sign things weren't going right at the Cannes Film Festival in France this year – a high-dollar jewelry heist.

From then on, the annual French Riviera fete that usually oozes glamour, riches, bikinis, and (oh yeah) cinema, has endured a growing list of unprecedented and even shocking setbacks.

Guns have been drawn, dresses drenched, and body parts have been exposed.

Stars have been taking shelter and hiding under umbrellas during what's usually a lot of high-end fun in the sun. "The Great Gatsby" seemed to catch the brunt of the gray, wet weather as Leonardo DiCaprio,
