In the news:

Seems like Robert Zemeckis will be teaming up with Disney to remake 'Yellow Submarine', in 3D of course.

It appears that a Hendrix film is in the works, perhaps making use of the Woodstock anniversary to fuel desire.

Sid Ganis has made way for Tom Sherak to be the new AMPAS president, with Tom Hanks becoming a vice president as well.

Jodie Foster's next film behind the camera, a dark comedy starring Mel Gibson and herself, may have found a distributor in Summit.

The write of 'Ghost' and 'The Time Traveler's Wife' has a new scripting gig, this time a remake of a Japanese film.

Antoine Fuqua's next film may be in some legal trouble due to a lawsuit by an informant.

The reboot of 'Shazam!' has found a writer for the project, to be directed by Peter Segal.

-Thoughts?
