--- Dark Water - Apparently an horror movie starring Scott Speedman hit demand last week -- it's called Out of the Dark (nothing forgettable about that title at all) and co-stars Julia Stiles and is about a couple who move to Colombia only to find their house, you guess it, haunted. Damn real estate market! Anyway whether you want to watch the movie or not you've got to admire this interview with Scott at IndieWire (thanks Mac) which managed to work into the conversation Scott's career as a swimmer, which reminds us of happy things, and more happy things...

--- Into the Woods - Although he's been saying this every six months or so ever since the second movie came out, it seems like, The Blair Witch Project co-director Eduardo Sanchez actually sounds more confident this time around saying that a third movie is going to happen. He says "While I don’t have anything firm to talk about now, it wouldn’t surprise me if something happened within the next year or two." This one's supposed to be more of a straight-up sequel than the second movie was, which ought to make the 99% of people who hated Part 2 breathe a sigh of relief.

--- Axed Man - Frank Darabont has dropped out of making The Huntsman, the sequel to Snow White and The Hunstman, which was ditching all that icky girl stuff for more "Chris Hemsworth's biceps" stuff. Well not really - I believe Charlize is supposed to return? Did I hallucinate that? And also there's talk of Emily Blunt playing a new villainess as well. So there will be plenty of estrogen for Chris Hemsworth's Biceps to swim around in. As long as the biceps are the stars, that's what matters.

--- Sleep With Me - I guess Bachelorette writer/director Leslye Headland's new movie is called Sleeping With Other People and it will premiere at Sundance in a few weeks; it stars Allison Brie and Jason Sudekis and sounds like a rom-com riff. After Bachelorette I will follow her anywhere. The Playlist had her fill out a questionnaire that gives a couple of tidbits about it (as well as the sitcom she's working on next).

--- Joe's A Queen - Oh god, Ryan Murphy is already rending me to and fro with his next TV series and they haven't filmed a second of it yet - Scream Queens, the slasher-anthology he's making with Jamie Lee Curtis, just gathered up some new names, and there's great news (Abagail Breslin! Joe Manganiello! Which really means "Joe Manganiello's Half-Naked Body!" ) and bad news (Oh my god if he doesn't murder Lea Michele in the first episode I will just die) to be had.

--- Future Scully - Just a few weeks ago we'd read a quote from Gillian Anderson saying she'd totally be down to make some more X-Files, and then this weekend the dam breaks - Fox totally wants to make more X-Files. Apparently Chris Carter's been hammering out some stuff with them. Like, for real. What with everything getting rejuvenated (that's the kind word) these days I am not terribly surprised about this, but still, gimme gimme.

--- Normal People - Hey look there's an interview with Mark Ruffalo in the new issue of Interview Magazine too. (Thanks Mac) Conducted by no less than Julia Roberts, at that! I haven't read it yet but Mark looks cute in the pictures natch; I'll read this at lunch. No I haven't eaten yet. Oh my god now that I'm talking about it I'm starving! Let's get this post done dammit, I have to eat.

--- Clown Around - The producer of Cary Fukunaga's reboot of Stephen King's It wants us to know that they have every intention of dropping their child actors right into some terrible, terrible shit - they want to go places that the 80s TV version couldn't go near. Something tells me he doesn't include the teenage gangbang scene from the book, though.
