Al Pacino Joins His First Animated Feature: ‘Despicable Me 2’ By Germain Lussier/Feb. 3, 2012 4:15 pm EST While one could argue that Al Pacino’s acting has gotten overly animated in the last few years, he’s never actually been animated. Until now. The Oscar-winning actor just signed to voice his first animated character: the villain in Despicable Me 2, which is scheduled for release on July 3, 2013. It’s the role Javier Bardem was originally rumored for — a rumor which was later found to be untrue....

First Footage From Joss Whedon S Micro Budget Much Ado About Nothing

First Footage From Joss Whedon’s Micro-Budget ‘Much Ado About Nothing’ By Russ Fischer/April 30, 2012 10:30 am EST Joss Whedon isn’t a guy who needs to define his career at this point; thanks to Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Firefly and other shows he is very well-established as a creator with a specific voice. That said, Whedon really seems to be coming into his own in 2012. The biggest project on his resume so far, The Avengers (a film that would be the biggest on the resume of anyone shy of James Cameron or Peter Jackson) is garnering rave reviews left and right....
