Shia LaBeouf has been all over NYC promoting Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull and the rising star also scored the June cover of GQ. I have to say this is a sure jump from his days on Even Stevens via the Disney Channel. His acting has improved and his overall appeal is soaring.

Very exciting to me is the upcoming Fraggle Rock movie! My brother and I loved the show growing up and I am psyched it will be on the big screen. It's time to "Dance your cares away/ Worry's for another day/ Let the music play/ Down at Fraggle Rock!" The Fraggles are back! According to Variety, the Weinsteins are teaming up with Lisa Henson of the Jim Henson Company to bring a live-action, half-human half-puppet Fraggle Rock extravaganza to the big screen.

Oscar nominated actor Joaquin Phoenix is coming out with an album. A music album. What!? It didn't work for Scarlett Johansson. It didn't work for Minnie Driver or Kevin Bacon or Billy Bob Thornton or well, can you think of anyone it has worked for?
Apparently, Phoenix got the calling after he learned to play the guitar for the Johnny Cash biopic Walk the Line.

We didn't think it was possible, but the insanely dateable John Krasinski is not looking so hot these days. Due to an upcoming role in the Sam Mendes-directed Farlanders, John is sporting a nasty beard that resembles something one of the Geico cavemen would wear.

No stranger to biopics, Leonardo DiCaprio may be in line to portray another 20th-century figure in Fleming, a film chronicling the life of James Bond creator Ian Fleming. I don't know about you but I don't give a flip.
