| Al Jean, an executive producer of The Simpsons, revealed to Entertainment Weekly that a Simpsons feature film is being planned for release in 2008. The project has long been rumored and fan demand has been incredibly high for a big-screen film featuring the animated show created by Matt Groening. A spin-off of The Tracey Ullman show, The Simpsons has just begun its 16th season on TV, making it the longest-running animated show in history. Fox denied that the release date has anything to do with winning the potential toon vote in a presidential election. |

In what is the best news ever for any sports fan that doesn’t reside in North America, David Beckham, Raul and - more importantly - Zinedine Zidane have signed on to make appearances in the upcoming trilogy Goal! The epic trilogy focusing on a young man from East L.A. and his journey from the hood to soccer greatness is set to begin its platform release in August 2005. The second film in the trilogy will be released in June 2006, just before the World Cup begins. The final chapter will actually film during that competition with a release date of one year later. The $100 million project being directed by Danny Cannon has received the backing of international soccer body FIFA and will star Y Tu Mama Tambien actor Diego Luna. Total North American box office is forecasted at $2391.43. |

Speaking of gratuitous nudity, Mike Nichols has removed nude scenes featuring Natalie Portman from his upcoming film Closer. Portman plays a stripper in the film and although there were scenes filmed featuring her completely nude, Nichols has removed those scenes due to Portman’s request and his judgment that the shots were gratuitous. Nichols will include topless scenes, however, but this still does not quiet our collective rage. |
