why?

The best thing about 21 Jump Street back in the '80's was the McQuaid Brothers played by Johnny Depp and Peter Deluise, pure cheesy 1980's gold right there.

Looks like the big screen adaptation of the series set up over at Columbia Pictures with Neal Moritz producing has Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs directing duo Phil Lord and Chris Miller possibly taking on the project.


The BFDealmemo over at Variety had the news,


Columbia Pictures is negotiating with the "Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs" helming team of Phil Lord and Chris Miller to direct "21 Jump Street," the pic based on the TV series that launched Johnny Depp.
The film, about a group of baby-faced cops who go undercover at high schools, has been guided by Jonah Hill and Mike Bacall, who hatched the story together. Bacall wrote the script and Hill, will star in the film and be its exec producer.


21 Jump....Street!

So 2008 was the year of every movie being made in '09 would star Shia Labouf?

Well, 2010 will be the year of Sam Worthington.

As if his starring roles in Avatar and the upcoming remake Clash of the Titans wasn't enough, Sam Worthington is all set to star in another film -- at least that's what the rumors say. According to HollyScoop, there's word going around that Worthington may be up for the lead role in a Flash Gordon remake. Of course, it might be worth taking this news with a (large) grain of salt. The source that HollyScoop spoke to also said that Worthington is up against Ryan "I'm already playing Deadpool and Green Lantern" Reynolds.

“If he gets the role it would be quite a big deal as Flash is an all-American hero,” dished one Hollywood insider. “Right now it’s between Sam, Ryan Reynolds and one or two others for the lead role should the project actually get off the ground.”

If you're interested in reading more about the rumors, head over to HollyScoop. In the meantime, chime in here with your thoughts on Worthington as Flash Gordon.

I was just thinking last night if they were ever going to do a Flash Gordon remake.

Sam Worthatonofcrap should be blacklisted after Terminator.

Was his performance really that terrible? I mean, I didn't think it was amazing, but I don't see what would make people hate the guy.

[Advocate]

I only hate the Sam is so good lets put him in every movie, like they did with Shia. Its oversaturation plain and simple.
