From ComingSoon.net:
"In February, we learned that both Ian McShane and Penelope Cruz were joining Johnny Depp in Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. It was reported that McShane would play the villain Blackbeard, but it wasn't clear which role Cruz would take on.
In talking with MTV, producer Jerry Bruckheimer revealed that Cruz is playing Blackbeard's daughter. 'She's the daughter of the bad guy,' he said. You can expect 'a little romance between Captain Jack and the new character that Penelope plays.' He said 'she brings a lot of humor to it. And the fact that she's so feisty.'
Bruckheimer added that Blackbeard is 'the nastiest pirate ever.'
The producer also confirmed that Geoffrey Rush, who played Barbossa in the first three Pirates films, is indeed returning.
As for more roles to be cast, Bruckheimer said they they are 'looking for some new kids to be in it, we're testing right now.'
Asked how different this film will be, he said 'we're going to take a whole new direction,' but he did mention that 'it is a continuation of what you saw last time, he's in search for the Fountain of Youth.'
The... film is scheduled to start filming in June for a May 20, 2011 release."
I just wanna know if Kevin McNally (aka Mr. Gibbs) will return. That guy is funny!!

TEEN WOLF howls back to life on MTV?
From ComingSoon.net:
"MTV's reinvention of the 1980s movie Teen Wolf is moving forward. The 1985 film starred Michael J. Fox as a teenager who discovers he is a werewolf. The MTV version will be set in high school, draw from the horror genre to explore werewolf mythology and include a romantic plot line.
'It has a fresh take and is very different from the original,' said Liz Gateley, senior vp MTV series development. 'It has more of an American Werewolf in Paris feel to it. It's a dramatic thriller with two best friends in the center who provide a great comedy element: They are two very relatable characters on the outer circles of popular cliques.'
The new Wolf was written by 'Criminal Minds' creator Jeff Davis, who executive produces the pilot with Marty Adelstein (Fox's 'Prison Break') and Rene Echevarria (ABC's 'Castle')."
So this begs the question - who's the next Michael J. Fox?
