Gossip Teen

Vanessa Hudgens is gearing up for the release of Beastly (finally!) The date has been delayed, moved and pushed around the calendar so much it’s a wonder there is still interest in it.

Costarring with Alex Pettyfer, Mary Kate Olsen and Neil Patrick Harris (who later directed her at the Hollywood Bowl in a performance of Rent,) Hudgens spoke to ComingSoon about how she chose Beastly, her character Lindy and doing stunts while afraid of heights:

On what attracted her to the role: “It was just a script that was in the pile, you know, and I read it, and I thought that it was really interesting. I had a meeting with them, and I remember running in, and I was late and I felt horrible, and we just had a great conversation. It was me, Susan the producer and Daniel the director, and we just sat and talked about the project. Just hearing Daniel’s ambitions, what he wanted to do, how he wanted to shoot it, how he wanted to develop the characters. It just seemed like the right next choice.”

On who Lindy is and how she’s different: “It’s a whole lot different than me. I’m very outgoing and confident and when it comes to Lindy, she’s a bit more all over the place. She’s kind of the person that has a bunch of word vomit. She’ll say something and then instantly start to retract it, yet she can’t stop talking about it. She’s just kind of this neurotic character that’s just a lot of fun. There’s much more of a deeper undertone to the way I speak in it, because I have an extremely high voice.”

On her stunt work: “I’ve had one stunt already, which was quite frightening ’cause I’m afraid of heights, and I had to climb up a ladder, hold onto something upside down, they rigged me and I was literally hanging upside down on a pole, and then they would let the latch go, and they’d count “3,2,1″ and then I’d let go and fall into Alex’s arms.”

The movie hits theaters March 4th.

Dianna Agron lands the cover of British magazine Sugar for the Winter 2011 edition.

The actress who nabbed the sought after role as Sarah in the upcoming movie I Am Number Four, also walked away from the set with a boyfriend. Not just any boyfriend, but the absolutely gorgeous Alex Pettyfer. She told the magazine about Pettyfer:

“Alex might see himself as a bad boy, but he’s actually very sweet in real life. And I think it’s important to have your differences in any relationship. I wouldn’t want to be dating a carbon copy of myself. That would just be boring.”

Agron and Pettyfer get cozy on screen in Number Four on February 18th.

Glee returns with new episodes Sunday February 6th, following the Super Bowl.

Actress Vanessa Hudgens and Alex Pettyfer’s much anticipated movie got a new opening date – “Beastly” hits theaters a couple of weeks earlier on Friday, March 4, 2011 (watch new movie trailer HERE).

I seriously cannot wait to watch the so-called modern version of “The Beauty and The Beast”. Alex is an amazing talented actor with another movie titled “I Am Number Four” coming out on February 18th (teaser trailer HERE). And Vanessa’s “Sucker Punch” premieres on March 25th (movie trailer HERE).

Dianna Agron strikes a pose for the cover of the February 2011 issue of Elle Canada. The photo of Agron, beautiful and pale on the front of the magazine, may look familiar. It is one from photographer Paola Kudacki’s series for Vanity Fair’s October 2010 issue (see those photos here.)

The 24 year-old actress is in the upcoming film I Am Number Four, where she met her current boyfriend Alex Pettyfer on set. Agron said of her meeting with him:

He was great. I mean, I didn’t meet him until the day before the table read. And I thought, “Okay no judgments” he’s British, he’s very attractive, he’s the lead in this movie, let’s see. And you realize quickly with him, he’s very worldly. He’s from Europe; he’s been traveling and kind of exploring and taking in people from all different walks of life his whole life. And he was very passionate about this film and about what we could do and what we could explore with it. I think it shows in the trailer, I mean he looks amazing and so focused, and yeah I can’t wait to see the whole thing and kind of really see how it all turned out.

Dianna’s film opens February 18th and Glee returns following the Super Bowl on February 6th with a super-sized edition.

A new extended trailer for I Am Number Four hit the web before the holidays (sorry I missed it!)

Nine infants from planet Lorien have been sent to Earth to escape an invading army on their home planet. But that doesn’t deter the bounty hunter aliens who need to kill them and follow the tots to Earth. The kids are assigned numbers and must be killed in order. Number One, Two and Three are dead. Number Four is next.

Number Four is John Smith (Alex Pettyfer) a teenager living in Ohio. He’s on the run until he meets his first real love Sarah Hart (Dianna Agron) and decides it’s time to fight back.

Four is in theaters on February 18, 2011.

Alex Pettyfer is very hot and completely arrogant at the beginning of Beastly. His character, Kyle Kingston is the guy with everything and he knows it. Too bad for him he underestimates a classmate, Kendra (Mary Kate Olsen) who happens to have supernatural powers and curses Kyle to a life of disfigurement after he is incredibly cruel, savage and heartless to her.

His only saving grace? Finding that one person who will see past his physical self and fall in love with him. Kyle gets sage advice from his blind tutor (Neil Patrick Harris) and Vanessa Hudgens is the girl who catches his eye but is it too late? Can the curse still be broken?

The new release date is March 18, 2011.

Alex Pettyfer is joining the currently filming sci-fi thriller Now with Amanda Seyfried and Justin Timberlake. The movie (formerly known as I’m. mortal) is directed by Andrew Nicol and is shooting scenes in Los Angeles. The synopsis:

Now revolves around a futuristic world in which the aging gene is shut off in a person when they reach the age of 25. Individuals must thereafter purchase units of time and are genetically engineered to die once they run out. Justin Timberlake plays the film’s protagonist, a rebellious man who is falsely accused of murdering a wealthy individual and stealing his time. Amanda Seyfried also stars in the pic as a gorgeous rich girl who is taken hostage by Timberlake’s character and must go on the run with him to avoid the authorities (whose ranks include an officer played by Cillian Murphy).

Along with the Pettyfer, Matt Bomer of cable channel USA’s crime drama White Collar has been an announced addition to the stellar cast.

Pettyfer has Beastly with Vanessa Hudgens and I Am Number Four with Dianna Agron heading for release in 2011. Now is scheduled for release in 2012.

Dianna Agron and Alex Pettyfer are starring in I Am Number Four and here are some behind the scenes photos of the two stars. Agron, who filmed this on break from her hit TV show, told interviews how her character Sarah was different from Quinn on Glee:

What do you say is very defining about your character in this movie?

Agron:  I’ve been describing this movie to a lot of my friends as “Its very much The Breakfast Club, Rebel Without a Cause.”  It’s those movies.  The underdogs, in a very different way than Glee.   Glee is also about…it kind of has the underdog theme.  But this is more about these very adult teens, who are kind of on this journey and they don’t quite know for very different reasons why they don’t quite fit in, or they are starting to realize why they don’t quite fit in.  With Sarah, she’s smart and she knows what she wants.  But she’s not going to compromise herself anymore within her high school to be “accepted”, or popular, or anything like that.  She’s found her niche in photography and it’s something that really drives her.  She’s just kind of holding out until she can leave town, and kind of go on her own, and blossom even more.  But until then, she meets this character John.  And it’s almost like a chance to start over with him because he’s from out of town, there’s something kind of mysterious about him, but he’s kind to her. They very quickly form this very serious relationship and then when things get somewhat crazy…

This looks great and I can’t wait to see it. I Am Number Four hits theaters February 18, 2011.
