Zac Efron will be getting more work both in front of and behind the scenes as he has just signed a first look deal with Warner Brothers studios. The Charlie St. Cloud star will get first opportunity to use or pass on projects the studio purchases for Efron.

“Warner Bros plans to buy pitches, spec scripts, and books for Efron and his still unformed company to develop as star vehicles. His manager, Alchemy Entertainment’s Jason Barrett, will be an exec producer on the projects.”

Have any suggestions for Efron’s company name? Sound off in our comments below.

The Taylor Lautner movie machine keeps rolling. Hasbro, owners of successful toys-turned-live-action flicks like Transformers and G.I. Joe, are teaming up with Universal Studios to get Stretch Armstrong on the big screen and make some dough.

“In the past two years, Taylor has emerged as a real star at the global box office,” Universal Pictures co-chairman Donna Langley said.

“He brings the perfect balance of energy and athleticism to the role of an unlikely super hero with a fantastic super power. We couldn’t be more pleased that he has agreed to be our Stretch.”

Aiming for a summer 2012 release date, this movie could get crowded with other Lautner pics: Northern Lights, Cancun and Max Steel.  Are you ready for Taylor’s turn at super stardom with all these action flicks?

How many movies will Breaking Dawn, the final chapter of The Twilight Saga be made into has been a guessing game for fans of the series for some time. Summit, the studio that gives us the popular movies, had said that there would be only one BD flick even after actor BooBoo Stewart (Seth Clearwater) confirmed what most fans hoped for and had been assumed - there would be two movies.

Previously, author Stephanie Meyer said in an interview with MTV that she knew right where the film should be split - if it were to be made into two films and at that time seemed genuinely happy to have a two part ending to the saga. In January however, it was reported that Meyer could not “decide whether or not [making two movies] is the right thing to do creatively” and perhaps there was tension between the studio and creator. Meyer, who has given few interviews over the past year, issued a denial regarding any problems between herself and movie executives but it did make you wonder what was the problem?

After all the hoopla and behind the scenes drama, two movies will be made. An official announcement is due as early as next week. No director has been chosen (Chris Weitz, New Moon’s man in charge, has passed) and filming/production dates will need to be nailed down for all the actors - especially Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner, Dakota Fanning and Ashley Greene who have lots of offers and other commitments.

The third film, Eclipse is due in theaters June 2010, and the first full length trailer was rumored to be attached to Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief, opening this weekend (February 12th) however that has been debunked.

What do you think? Happy with two movies or ready to see Rob and Kristen in other non vampire stuff?

Actress/singer Ashley Tisdale, who is working on some major projects for her Blondie Girl Productions, was spotted wearing a simply beautiful bright blue dress, black tights and flat boots while arriving at LA Studios in Hollywood on Tuesday (January 12).

As we mentioned before, Ashley can do no wrong – she always looks fabulous! It really doesn’t matter if she is doing a glamorous photo shoot or just walking down the street to get a cup of coffee or out shopping with her beau Scott Speer.

American Idol winner Jordin Sparks was a guest on BBC Radio 1 show ‘Live Lounge’ in the UK a few days ago and did this amazing version of Katy Perry’s ‘Hot N Cold.’ Her voice was strong and pure and it was evident why she was the season 6 champion.

The Twilight Saga: New Moon release is still two months away, but director Chris Weitz has given boxoffice.com a short interview about the upcoming movie. Of course, the filmmaker was asked about the rumoured romantic relationship between Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson and while he didn’t confirm it - he did give a very interesting answer to the supposed secrecy.

One of my favorite New Moon conspiracy theories is that the producers are ordering Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson to keep their love hidden because it will affect the way people will perceive the story, even though the story is already known even until the next two books.

The fans know what the Volturi look like or what Taylor Lautner as Jacob’s amazing bod is going to look like—the producers know these things are big points of curiosity about whether we’ve been able to be faithful to people’s notions. And they want to parse these things out over time. [Laughs] It is a conspiracy, but the conspiracy is called marketing.

While that is what everyone will focus on, I thought his answers about the actual storyline and how he chooses to film it, were really fascinating. He mentions he feels almost liberated about making a movie from a book, where the ending is already known to the audience. That is unique, many artists feel just the opposite - worried about negative fan reaction to any visual or storyline changes.

This is sequel is shaping up to possibly be better than original in many ways. I know by the feedback we get everyone is super excited about the November movie.

‘Twilight’ stars Peter Facinelli and Jackson Rathbone were in Dallas over the weekend at the superfan convention known as ‘TwiCon.’ MTV got both ‘New Moon’ actors to respond to the controversy surrounding the Rachelle Lefevre replacement as vampire Victoria in the supernatural movies. Clearly the two actors want to keep their jobs (Hello Summit!) and try to say as little as possible that might get the execs upset again. Bryce Dallas Howard may be the new baddie for ‘Eclipse’ but obviously the actors will miss Lefevre.

The new movie Personal Security may or may not have teen star Miley Cyrus attached to it, but now we know for certain, Hugh Jackman will not be playing her bodyguard in this particular film. Just before the 4th of July, news leaked of a business dinner between Jackman and Cyrus and multiple studio execs. The resulting story was of an updated version of The Bodyguard starring Miley and Hugh - minus the love story angle. Interestingly enough, it’s taken Jackman’s reps a month to finally say “totally false” to the rumoured pairing.

Who would you like to see play Cyrus’s security? And don’t say Robert Pattinson - be creative!

Move over Miley Cyrus, Miranda Cosgrove may just usurp your throne. The Nickelodeon star of iCarly is hot hot hot and her show is now the most popular with kids ages 2 - 14. She is so successful that a movie is being developed for her to star in: a Paramount pictures comedy called How Could You Do This To Me?  While Cosgrove continues to star in iCarly, she has been capturing audiences with her charm and her album has done quite well.

“And in the two years the show has been on the air, [producer Dan] Schneider and Cosgrove have turned the product into a ratings behemoth for Nickelodeon, a network that was under significant pressure to replicate the kinds of successes that Disney had with the High School Musical franchise.”

That is quite a coup for Cosgrove. The Disney marketing group is formidable and to have iCarly turn into such a success without that backing shows that she is just as great at capturing attention without all the paparazzi following her.

Cyrus seems to have another year or so left for Hannah Montana and she is moving on to movies (other than the HM features she has been so successful at.) Author Nicholas Sparks (The Notebook, Nights in Rodanthe,) is creating a novel to be made into a movie, with Cyrus as the lead. Miley also has a fantastic musical career and life seems to be going great for her. Miranda Cosgrove is moving into that same territory and we hope things go as well for her as they are for Miley Cyrus. Both are talented girls with a lot more to come. I can’t wait to see what both have in store for us.
