The Star Trek Sequel Won't Be Called Star Trek 2
There aren't a lot of solid details right now on J.J. Abrams' followup to his 2009 reboot of the Star Trek franchise, but Access Hollywood is reporting one minor bit of information: the sequel won't be called Star Trek 2 .
At this point, speculation on what the title might be is just that, though the franchise's cinematic history originally abandoned numerical titles with the seventh film, Star Trek: Generations (the same time the reins were passed over to the "Next Generation" crew). Instead of numbers, subsequent films bore the subtitles First Contact , Insurrection and Nemesis .
The article also suggests that the current plan is to put the film before cameras in January with a release date still to be determined.
Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Zoe Saldana, Karl Urban, Simon Pegg, John Cho and Anton Yelchin are expected to all reprise their roles as members of the Enterprise crew with Abrams back in the director's chair and a script again from Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman.
THE WALKING DEAD
Two episodes into the second season and AMC has already ordered a third year, according to Spinoff Online . Hopefully, Rick and the gang will make it to the prison at that point. Of course, the show is paced slower than a zombie's gait, so maybe will see the prison in the distance half-way through next year.

THE PUNISHER
Spinoff Online reports that Frank Castle is coming to Fox television. Yeah, you read that right.

Universal Hires Screenwriter for Battlestar Galactica
Universal Pictures is hiring John Orloff to write the screenplay for the Bryan Singer-directed Battlestar Galactica , reports Deadline .
Orloff wrote and executive produced Roland Emmerich's Anonymous and also penned Zack Snyder's Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole and A Mighty Heart , starring Angelina Jolie . He received an Emmy nomination for HBO's "Band of Brothers."
It's unclear when the project might go into production, but Bryan Singer is currently working on New Line's Jack the Giant Killer , which hits theaters on June 15, 2012.
"Battlestar Galactica" was created by Glen A. Larson and began with the TV series in 1978, followed by a brief sequel TV series in 1980. Ronald D. Moore and David Eick launched a new version in 2004 while a prequel to that series, titled "Caprica," debuted in 2010. Syfy also filmed "Battlestar Galactica: Blood & Chrome," though that project does not have a launch date yet.

AKIRA
So, my hopes have been dashed as Variety reports that Warner Bros . green-lit the film. With that, everything becomes solid; including the casting. "Both Warners and Collett-Sera have been keen on [Garrett Hedlund to star], but had to wait for a greenlight to make their move," they write. So, just think on this for a moment. Hedlund, who played Sam Flynn in "Tron Legacy" as Kaneda ... er, "Kendall." I guess that means we can expect Channing Tatum to show up as Tetsuo -- I mean "Tommy."

Lou Reed and Metallica ‘s collaborative effort “ Lulu ” has been posted for streaming in full online through Loureedmetallica.com . The effort will see a November 01st North American release and will look fantastic next to “ Load “, “ ReLoad ” and “ St. Anger ” underneath that pile of dust.
William Shatner ‘s music video for his cover of Queen ‘s “ Bohemian Rhapsody ” has arrived online through Revolvermag.com. The cover features John Wetton (ex- King Crimson ) and is perhaps even more twisted than you expect.
Casey Jones will embark on their final tour together with Death Before Dishonor , Hundredth , No Bragging Rights and Boys No Good in January.

THE DARK KNIGHT RISES
According to Slashfilm , a six-minute "prologue" will be attached to IMAX prints of "Mission: Impossible -- Ghost Protocol." They write, "If this happens, audiences would get their first chance at seeing 'The Dark Knight Rises' footage in IMAX on December 16. That's because 'Mission: Impossible -- Ghost Protocol' is opening exclusively in IMAX five days before its general release, which is on December 21." That's a good ploy to get people to see the latest "M:I" movie.
SUPERMAN: THE MAN OF STEEL
It seems Zod and Jor-El will engage in close-quarters combat, if Russell Crowe's Twitter posts are to be believed. The actor, innocently enough, discussed his workout the other day: "15km bike ride,umpteen hours fighting Michael Shannon. He's very hard to put down." Asked by a follower if he hands Zod his ass, Crowe replied, "Hard to tell who wins, we are still fighting tomorrow." An actual Jor-El/Zod fight is something I wouldn't mind seeing.

Previously, Bradley Cooper was signed on to wear the face paint of Eric Draven, but he left due to scheduling conflicts.

"In writing drama, there's a great component of being an improvisational actor and there's also a component of being an improvisational writer who can inhabit another personality and deliver something in the correct tone. Frank Miller is emphatically Frank Miller. That's what I wanted to see in 'Sin City' and that's what I want to see in ' Sin City 2 .'"
