BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

Chris Pratt In Talks To Join Jurassic World

Chris Pratt, who leads next summer’s Marvel movie Guardians of the Galaxy, is in early talks to star in Jurassic World, Universal’s latest installment of the Jurassic Park movie series.

Pratt would star as the movie’s male lead, a rugged ex-military man, whose foil is the already-cast Bryce Dallas Howard, who plays a smart corporate scientist.

The part was initially earmarked for Josh Brolin, but reports of Brolin’s involvement proved premature as the actor’s talks didn’t get very far. The same could happen here. There is an offer on the table but it's still early going.

Ty Simpkins and Nick Robinson also are part of the cast, playing Howard’s nephews. Colin Trevorrow is directing the movie, which is being produced by Frank Marshall and Pat Crowley.

Trevorrow and Steven Spielberg, who is exec producing, are working in tandem to handpick the actors for the movie.

Pratt may be on the verge of stardom and Jurassic could tip that balance.

The actor has appeared in bit parts in Moneyball and Zero Dark Thirty but is best known for being part of the ensemble of NBC’s comedy Parks & Recreation.

He has the potential to become a leading man with his portrayal of Star-Lord in Guardians of the Galaxy. Though the movie is based on a group of lesser-known heroes, it will have massive awareness as it carries the Marvel imprimatur. If Pratt does end up doing Jurassic, it puts Universal in prime position to capitalize on his growing stardom.

Naked Gun Reboot On It's Way

If you've seen Naked Gun - or The Naked Gun: From The Files Of Police Squad ! to give its full title - you'll know that it's a comedic masterpiece that springboards off astonishing levels of silliness and random spoofery. Leslie Nielsen's Frank Drebin is a loveable buffoon for the ages, even when he's discussing his dicky prostrate. Do not, however, expect the Ed Helms -starring reboot to adopt exactly the same tack. According to Naked Gun director/co-writer David Zucker, talking up Airplane!'s screening at Nashville's Wild West Comedy Festival, the new version will not attempt to hit the same spoofy sweet spot as the Zuckers and Jim Abrahams' 1988 comedy. "It won’t be like the Naked Gun that I did," Zucker revealed. "It may be good, but it won’t be that kind of movie. They’re going to use the title. They asked me if I wanted to produce. They’re nice people, but they don’t want to do that style of spoof that I do." One departure...
