MacGruber! He's coming to your theater with Ryan Phillippe and some guy named Val Kilmer...
MacGruber!
Ahem...sorry about that. But yeah, those "Saturday Night Live" parody skits about a bumbling MacGyver-type are coming to the big screen.
Phillippe and Kilmer will co-star next to SNL regulars Kristen Wiig and Will Forte in the spy comedy, with Forte co-writing the script with SNL writers Jorma Taccone and John Solomon.
MacGruber!
Zach Galifianakis is a hot commodity after shining in the surprise smash, "The Hangover."
The man they call "Fat Jesus" is being linked to a few different films that hook him up again with "Hangover" mastermind, Todd Phillips.
The first film is called "Due Date" which is basically "Hangover" with two less guys and more baby. There is also talk of a "Hangover" sequel. But the most intriguing of the projects is something called "Man-Witch."
Originally scheduled to be a Jack Black project, Galifianakis seems lined up to play a guy who finds out he has supernatural powers and enrolls in a young girl's witching school. Picture a creepy, bearded weirdo visiting an all-girls version of Hogwarts.
The possibilities are endless.
Have you had a chance to check out the red band trailer for Diablo Cody's new film, "Jennifer's Body"?
The film stars current it-girl Megan Fox as a high schooler who is possessed and begins to kill classmates, usually boys. The trailer does drop an f-bomb and there is some hinted-at nakedness but it's not too out there. The film itself seems like it could be a great mix of horror and comedy from a writer who's last script won an Oscar. ("Juno")

"Twilight" fans have known for some time that the film's stars Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart have been an item since filming the first adaptation of the book series.
Now, Australian rag New Weekly is reporting that the couple are pregnant and a source said that Stewart is reportedly "very nervous about the whole situation."
Why? Your kid will come out with great hair and will be all kinds of sparkly.
Working in the newspaper industry, I've developed somewhat of an aversion to broadcast news.
It's difficult to find a station that really reports news anymore. (Some print readers will say the same thing about newspapers, but that's neither here nor there.)
My point is that after going back and forth, I finally settled on CNN awhile back. Now, that partnership is over and it's all because of Michael Jackson.
I know what you're saying, don't crucify CNN for the sins of every major news network. Not to beat a dead pop star, but is this all the news that's going on? Truthfully, I made my peace with it last week.
Until I saw this headline on CNN.com: Neverland Mystery Solved.
Mystery? What mystery? Oh the one about Michael Jackson's ghost. Wait...what?
Yup, it turns out during a routine broadcast, cameras caught what appeared to be a ghostly figure passing through the halls of the Neverland Ranch.
That's right, a ghost.
And while the network pointed out later the apparition was merely a member of the crew passing by a light setup, it only did so after the video of the "ghost" garnered over 6 million hits online.
Thanks, Larry King!
