Villains Get Their Own 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows' Poster
Out of all the promotional materials for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II, once again it seems the poster machine seems to be running at full steam with the insane barrage of new posters for the film. Our most recent round of posters featured our heroes lined-up at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry ready for battle. And now we have the other side of the battle as Voldemort is lined up with his best Death Eaters including Bellatrix Lestrange and Lucius Malfoy. Honestly, I can't wait to see this epic battle take place on the big screen when the film hits theaters on July 15th. See the poster below!

Billy Bob Thornton Tosses Duvall and More in 'Jayne Mansfield's Car'
Sparse details about the project came to the surface last year when Billy Bob Thornton revealed that he would direct his first feature since the 2001 film Daddy and Them. Now we have details on the film titled Jayne Mansfield's Car, and a great line-up of actors to star in the new comedic drama. Deadline says Robert Duvall (Get Low), John Hurt (V for Vendetta), Kevin Bacon (X-Men: First Class), Robert Patrick (Walk the Line) and Ray Stevenson (Thor) in the story focusing on the culture clash of two families, from different continents, in 1969. Sounds like Flipped, but without the childhood romance.

Anna Kendrick Joining Jake Gyllenhaal in Police Drama 'End of Watch'
Back in March we learned that writer/director David Ayer, who loves making police and crime dramas like Harsh Times and Street Kings, would direct yet another law enforcement centric film in the form of End of Watch. Jake Gyllenhaal and Michael Pena star in the film which follows longtime partnership of two LAPD officers as they confront marriage, love, fatherhood and the harsh realities of the Los Angeles streets. Now two actresses have signed on for the drama as Variety reports that Oscar nominated Up in the Air star Anna Kendrick and Death Race actress Natalie Martinez will both star in the film, which shoots this summer.

First Look: Promo Posters for 'Three Stooges', 'Battleship', 'Avengers'
It's time to take a gigantic look into the future, as the 2011 Licensing International Expo is underway in Las Vegas. This convention focuses on selling licenses/brands and cross-promotion, which takes time to integrate. Hence, studios must come and advertise years out - up into 2013. This year, there's an assortment of new posters and banners that contain never-before-seen logos and imagery for a lot of upcoming movies in 2012 and 2013. ComingSoon (again) has the best galleries, but there were a few movies in particular I wanted to highlight - including Battleship, The Three Stooges, Rise of the Guardians + 47 Ronin.

Full Theatrical Trailer for Comedy 'Our Idiot Brother' with Paul Rudd
"You said your door was always open...!" The Weinstein Co. has debuted the official theatrical trailer via Yahoo for the indie comedy Our Idiot Brother (formerly My Idiot Brother) starring Paul Rudd as Ned, the "idiot" brother who moves in with his three sisters after he gets busted. And those sisters are: Elizabeth Banks, Zooey Deschanel & Emily Mortimer, plus Rashida Jones. This looks quite good, it plays off of some appropriately idiotic humor, but it looks funny. I've heard mixed-to-good things about this from Sundance, and our Ethan liked it quite a bit, so check it out. "Our idiot brother just ruined my freakin' life!"

First Look: Ten Years Later the Pact Returns for 'American Reunion'
Back in March when we heard that Jason Biggs, Seann William Scott and Eugene Levy were definitely returning for a fourth installment of the sex comedy franchise American Pie, I was pretty excited. Now, with production on American Reunion underway with Jon Hurwitz and Hayden Schlossberg (the guys behind Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle) at the helm, the cast has been busy posting pictures on Twitter, and while most of them are simple shots featuring themselves, one photo actually recreates the moment from the first film when the boys make a pact to lose their virginity on prom night. See the photo below!

Worthington & Cameron May Produce Big Sci-Fi Project 'Myth' at Fox
Ohh I love hearing about more sci-fi! THR is reporting on a new sci-fi project in the works at 20th Century Fox called Myth. The project is developing with actor Sam Worthington and Lorenzo di Bonaventura (Transformers, G.I. Joe, Salt franchises) producing, and James Cameron executive producing. Sadly, this is where details get thin. "Nothing is known about Myth other than it's big, it's sci-fi, and it's got lots of action." And unfortunately, "Cameron would not direct, and at this stage, Worthington is not attached to star." However, what we do know is that Will Staples is writing a pitch. So it's just barely in the early stages.

Jamie Foxx the Latest Rumored for Tarantino's 'Django Unchained'?
There are some big names being thrown around. First it was Will Smith, then Idris Elba, now we hear Jamie Foxx. There's a blurb over on Roger Friedman's Showbiz411 (via The Playlist) saying that Oscar winning actor Jamie Foxx now seems to be the frontrunner for the coveted lead role of Django in Quentin Tarantino's upcoming spaghetti western Django Unchained. It's not set in stone by any means, hence why it's still just "rumored", and apparently he got the news from Samuel L. Jackson at the Tony Awards, but beyond that, it hasn't been confirmed. But this could be a huge opportunity for Foxx if he takes the role.

Ed Harris and Matthew Fox Are Also Joining the Cast of 'World War Z'
Just yesterday we learned that "The Pacific" star James Badge Dale would be joining the growing cast of the adaptation of Max Brooks' novel World War Z. Director Marc Forster is directing the feature film take on the post-zombie-apocalyptic story which sees Brad Pitt as a researcher for the U.N. Postwar Commission learning as much as he can about the zombie epidemic ten years later. Now Bloody Disgusting reports "Lost" star Matthew Fox has signed on to take a role in the film as well. However, it's not clear how substantial his role will be since his character is simply referred to as "Parajumper." So that's interesting.

Another Fantastic Set of Posters for Jon Favreau's 'Cowboys & Aliens'
Yesterday, we featured a kick ass Drew Struzan poster for Jon Favreau's Cowboys & Aliens, but had to pull it down at Favreau's request. However, here is another kick ass poster to see in place of it, this time fan-art that isn't officially from the movie. An illustrator named Janée Meadows created a set of Cowboys & Aliens posters, one an "inverted" alternate (kind of like Mondo), that were first mentioned on Bloody-Disgusting, but she also posted them on her Twitter. The posters feature a silhouette of Daniel Craig with some sci-fi action drawn within. They're both awesome, I'd love to see them printed! Check 'em out below.

Greta Gerwig & Eva Mendes Also Joining 'The Place Beyond The Pines'
It's finally time to cast the women in Blue Valentine director Derek Cianfrance's new crime drama The Place Beyond The Pines. It's already set to star both Ryan Gosling and Bradley Cooper, but now Deadline is reporting that Eva Mendes is now set, and Greta Gerwig is "in talks", to star in the film as well. This is a hell of a cast, I've got to say, especially considering the odd crime story it has, and the team behind it. Mendes will play the love interest of a motorcycle rider-turned-bank robber, played by Gosling, and mother of his child; while Gerwig is circling the role of the wife of Gosling's foe, a cop-turned politician.

Watch: Theatrical Trailer for Evan Glodell's Gnarly Indie 'Bellflower'
An official theatrical trailer for cult favorite indie flick Bellflower has hit the web courtesy of IMDb, with an embed below from Twitch. Before this, we've only featured the teaser trailer which had nothing but their post-apocalyptic car named Medusa, which barely plays a part in the film anyway. Starring Evan Glodell, Tyler Dawson and Jessie Wiseman, the film follows two friends as they venture out into the world to begin their adult lives. This trailer really makes the film look great, and they're obviously focusing on those quotes about it, but I'm still not that into it after seeing it at Sundance. But give it a shot, you may dig this!
