The latest word is that Johnny Depp is in talks to sign, replacing Sam Worthington, who replaced Tom Cruise. If it’s a go, Depp will play an American tourist who’s used by an Interpol agent to flush out a criminal with whom she once had an affair.

The agent will be played by Angelina Jolie, which would make for an awesome pairing with Depp. I’m trying to think if they’ve ever done a movie, and nothing comes to mind. If not, it’s time!

For more on Angelina Jolie, check out Pitt Watch; for more on Tom Cruise, visit TomKatCrazy. 

Any thoughts on this pairing?

“Sherlock Holmes” opens in theaters Dec. 25, 2009, and follows the adventures of the famed detective (Downey, Jr.) and his partner John Watson (Law).

Sherlock Holmes 101: He’s a fictional character of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, created by British author and physician Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Holmes is a brilliant London-based "consulting detective", known for his intellectual prowess, skillful use of observation, deductive reasoning, and forensic skills to solve difficult cases. In short, he’s the forerunner of all the cop shows on TV now and in the past.

Check out all of Film Gecko’s coverage of “Sherlock Holmes,” and see what you think of the new trailer.

The British Academy of Film and Television Arts celebrates the best of TV and film, and is often known as the British Oscars. The BAFTA/LA Britannia Awards honors individuals and companies who’ve dedicated their careers to advancing the entertainment arts. Got all that?

Here are photos of three gorgeous and classy ladies who attended the event this week – Amy Adams, Emily Blunt and Minnie Driver. They just keep getting better and better, don’t they? It’s like they’re aging backwards!

But, of course, it’s included in the special features on the DVD and Blu-ray, hitting shelves Nov. 17, 2009 from Universal Home Entertainment.

The movie stars Sacha Baron Cohen as an Austrian TV host searching for fame and fortune in America. During the process, he pranks any and everyone who crosses his path.

Really, though, you’ve gotta believe that celebrities can see him coming a mile away. It’s not like Cohen hasn’t been on TV and in movies for years, especially after the release of “Borat.”

Anyway, here’s the clip of LaToya Jackson. I’ll put it after the jump, because,well … you’ll see why. Shield your kids’ eyes. That’s all I’m sayin’…

And check out the bonus clip of Pete Rose on “Bruno.”

Roland Emmerich’s tragi-film centers on a global cataclysm that brings an end to the world as we know it — seriously, check out the trailer. I also have a great 5-minute clip with John Cusack front and center.

Until the Nov. 13 release date, here are a few premiere pictures of Cusack, Thandie Newton, Woody Harrelson, Danny Glover, Gilmore Girls’ Lauren Graham, and Chin Han (read my “Dark Knight” interview with him).

Also present was Adam Lambert, who sang one of the movie’s tunes, “Time for Miracles.” Watch the video of that on Idol Stalker!

I caught up with Jordan Nagai, who voices the part of Russell the Wilderness Explorer in the film. He’s enthusiastic and energetic – not unlike his on-screen counterpart – and they even look alike, don’t they?

Read on for Jordan’s thoughts on making “Up” and running an obstacle course before his recording sessions.

Tell us about your new movie, “Up.”

“Up” is about a young wilderness explorer called Russell. Russell needs his last wilderness explorer badge – the Assisting The Elderly Badge – so he goes to his elderly neighbor, Mr. Fredricksen, to see if he can get it.

What happens when Russell meets Mr. Fredricksen?

Mr. Fredricksen has just lost his wife and he is about to lose his house, so he decides to go on an adventure by attaching balloons to his home. He sails into the sky, but Russell accidentally goes along for the ride.

More after the jump…

Tell us a little about Russell?

Russell is an active, enthusiastic and determined 8-year-old boy. He loves animals and he loves the wilderness, so he has a great time exploring when they land near Paradise Falls. Russell is a funny, helpful and smart boy — and he wants to get this last badge to please his father.

What is Mr. Fredricksen like?

Mr. Fredricksen is grumpy and he doesn’t like going outside. Russell loves being outside and he loves running around, so they’re opposites. Russell has only been to museums. He’s never experienced the forest for real, so this is his first trip into a wilderness.

What are your favorite things about Russell?

I like the way that he’s funny. He makes a lot of jokes, and he sometimes shows off what he knows from his wilderness explorer camp. He shows Carl – Mr. Fredricksen – different knots and the different calls of animals.

Are you anything like Russell? 

We both love animals and I’m pretty determined at getting things that I really want. I’d love to explore the wilderness too!

How did you get the part of Russell?

The principal at my school sent out an email to all students saying there was an audition for 9 and 10 year old boys. My brother was 9 years old at the time and he went to the audition, so I went along with him. Even though I was only 7 years old, I was allowed to do the audition, too. I did several auditions after that, and finally, I got the part!

Was it hard recording your voice in the sound booth?

It wasn’t very difficult, but I had to repeat the same lines over and over again. I also had to stand for a long time, so it was a little tiring. The director – Pete Docter (read my Q&A here) – tried to make it easier for me, so I took a lot of breaks. I had a lot of fun recording the voice!

Did you do anything special to prepare for the recording sessions?

Before some recordings, I’d do jumping jacks or I’d run around the studio to pump up my energy. When I needed to be excited, Pete would make obstacle courses for me to run around, too!

What was your funniest moment from the recording sessions?

There was one time when I needed to laugh, so Pete held me upside down and tickled me. That was really funny.

Is it weird to hear your voice coming out of a cartoon character?

It’s pretty weird, but it’s cool too.

What do your friends think of your new fame?

They are all very excited for me. We went to see the movie together on opening day. They like the movie a lot, and they think that I’m very lucky.

Have you always wanted to be an actor?

It wasn’t my plan, but I really enjoyed working on “Up.” 

What other films would you like to star in?

“Toy Story” would be a great movie to work on. My brother and I have always liked “Toy Story.” I think it’s really cool when the toys come alive and have their own adventure.

What do you like to do in your spare time?

I like to swim and play basketball. I also love judo. I like the drum and the guitar!

Russell heads off to South America in the movie … Is there any place you’d like to visit?

I would like to go to Africa. I want to go on safari and see the wild animals, like the cheetah. That would be very cool!

They’re the oldest coven in the “Twilight” universe, and they’re the closest thing the vampires have to royalty. They also enforce the law and keep things in order. A few more bites:

• Aro (Michael Sheen) is the most dangerous and deadly vampire.
• Marcus (Christopher Heyerdahl) can sniff out treason.
• Caius (Jamie Campbell Bower) is perpetually angry.
• Aro, Marcus and Caius are in charge, with Jane as their foremost minion.
• Jane (Dakota Fanning) is their secret weapon. She looks innocent, but she’s really quite evil.
• Alex (Cameron Bright) is a henchman who has the ability to cut off senses.
• Demetri (Charlie Bewley) is a protector and an expert tracker.
• Felix (Daniel Cudmore) is one of the enforcers and very brutal and animalistic.

Until then, here’s a clip from the bonus material, a never-before-seen interview where baseball legend Pete Rose sits with Austrian TV host Bruno, played by Sacha Baron Cohen. It’s an alternate scene not included in the film.

Whether you like Cohen’s characters or not, it always floors me how deeply embedded he is in them. Really, it’s hard to believe he’s anything other than the character you’re seeing on screen.

The film starred John Cusack as mediocre student Lloyd Dobler, attempting to capture the heart of a beautiful valedictorian. Even if you’ve never seen the movie (you need to fix that right now), you’ve likely seen the picture of Cusack holding that iconic boom box over his head.

Buy the 20th Anniversary Edition Blu-ray and DVD of “Say Anything.” In the meantime, here’s a pic from today’s event, which also featured the band named “Lloyd Dobler Effect.”
