News Roundup: Emma Watson's new look and Suzanne Collins on The Hunger Games screenplay

• First Look from The Leaky Cauldron at Emma Watson as a wardrobe assistant on My Week with Marilyn.  Hermione who?

• DreamWorks is not going to rest on its laurels and only feature sequels in the animation films slated for release in the upcoming years.  They have announced Me and My Shadow, a combination of 2D and 3D animation.  Yay for originality!  Check out the above link for details on the story and crew from Empire Online.
• Is Zoolander 2 going to happen?  All signs point to an astounding yes.  
• X-Men: First Class Official Synopsis now released.  From Get the Big Picture:

"X-Men: First Class charts the epic beginning of the X-Men saga, and reveals a secret history of famous global events. Before mutants had revealed themselves to the world, and before Charles Xavier and Erik Lensherr took the names Professor X and Magneto, they were two young men discovering their powers for the first time. Not archenemies, they were instead at first the closest of friends, working together with other Mutants (some familiar, some new), to stop Armageddon. In the process, a grave rift between them opened, which began the eternal war between Magneto’s Brotherhood and Professor X’s X-Men."

I love it when they delve into character backstories.

• Finally, did you know that best-selling author of The Hunger Games trilogy Suzanne Collins is also writing the screenplay?  Did you hear that Jo Rowling? Collins talks about the transition from book to screen and what she has to leave out and keep in.  Keep everything, I say.
