Last year, the internet was hit with a wave of terrifying photos that featured rapper turned actor Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson. He appeared gaunt and dangerously frail and no one knew why. It turned out that he dropped a massive amount of weight to appear in a film called Things Fall Apart. It’s a drama that centers on a college football player who’s struck with cancer. Over on Vulture, they’ve posted the film’s unofficial first trailer and it shows us where all of Jackson’s hard work went…

There just isn’t a shortage of Michael Cera coming of age comedies out there is it? A trailer has just been released for Youth in Revolt. It’s a film by Miguel Iterta, and co-stars Zach Galifianakis, Justin Long, and newcomer Portia Doubleday. For the most part it’s that same deadpan comedy that we know and love, with a touch of romance and a dash of multiple personality disorder. Believe me, it looks crazier than it sounds. You can view the trailer below.

A while ago we reported on an upcoming comedy called Date Night that stars funnyman Steve Carell and funny lady, Tina Fey. The film is directed by Shawn Levy and centers on a married couple who’s lives end up in danger during one of their routine “date nights.” The earlier cast included Mark Wahlberg, James Franco, Taraji P. Henson, Kristen Wiig, Leighton Meester, and Common. Three more names have been added to this list, and I think they’ll make some great additions to those already involved.
Check out the latest cast update after the jump.

Mickey Rourke is hot right now with The Wrestler building up Oscar hype, mainly due to his performance, but that isn’t slowing down his work schedule. Currently he’s playing a Texas cowboy in Director Géla Babluani’s remake of 13 Tzameti. Babluani wrote and directed the original and is returning to the project to make an American version. Sounds like a challenge. The cast is definitely interesting. The film stars Rourke, Jason Statham, Ray Liotta, Ray Winstone and Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson.
