Olivia Munn has been cast in the role of Psylocke in 'X-Men: Apocalypse'.
The 34-year-old actress, who recently starred alongside Johnny Depp in the action comedy film 'Mortdecai', has confirmed that she will appear as Psylocke/Betsy Braddock in the Bryan Singer-directed movie, which already boasts an impressive cast that includes Oscar-winning actress Jennifer Lawrence, Oscar Isaac and James McAvoy.
Brian Singer wrote on Instagram: "Excited to welcome @oliviamunn as Betsy Braddock! #Psylocke #XmenApocalypse #XMEN."
Meanwhile, Jennifer Lawrence recently revealed 'X-Men: Apocalypse' will be her last film in the franchise.
The 24-year-old actress, who's starred as Raven/Mystique in the Marvel films, explained that the eagerly-awaited new movie will mark the final time she appears in the role.
Speaking at the premiere of her latest film 'Serena', Jennifer was asked about the upcoming 'X-Men' movie, to which she replied: "It is my last one, actually."
By contrast, co-star Nicholas Hoult recently revealed he'd like to continue with the franchise, but said he's only committed to one more movie.
He explained: "This is the last one I'm signed up for.
"The first one did so well and [X-Men: Days of Future Past] got received so brilliantly. I have a good time playing [Beast] so I'd keep making them."
'Wonder Woman' filmmakers are on the lookout for a new director after Michelle MacLaren quit the project over "creative differences".
The Emmy-winning director, who's best known for helming episodes of 'Breaking Bad', 'Game of Thrones' and 'The Walking Dead', had been set to lead the eagerly-awaited Warner Bros film starring Israeli actress Gal Gadot, but has chosen to walk away over a disagreement.
In a statement, Warner Bros explained: "Given creative differences, Warner Bros and Michelle MacLaren have decided not to move forward with plans to develop and direct Wonder Woman together."
The studio hasn't offered an explanation of what the creative differences entail and there is no suggestion as to who will replace the Canadian director.
Meanwhile, Gal Gadot insisted recently she wasn't bothered by suggestions she didn't have a large enough bust to play the superhero.
The actress - who's set to appear in upcoming blockbuster 'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice' - said: "Well, they said that I was too skinny and my boobs were too small. I'm really lucky nothing in my life was instantaneous. When I was younger I would take criticism really hard. But now it mostly amuses me.
"The true Amazons had one boob so it wouldn't bother them in their archery. So it's not going to be like I'm a real Amazon. We always try to make everyone happy but we can't."
Rebecca Hall, Penelope Wilton and Jemaine Clement have been added to the cast of Steven Spielberg's 'The BFG'.
The 68-year-old filmmaker - who will co-produce the film adaptation of the Roald Dahl children's story alongside Walt Disney Studios - has added the trio to Mark Rylance, Ruby Barnhill and Bill Hader for what will be Disney's first-ever Spielberg-directed film.
Spielberg said: "In more than 40 years of making movies, I have been on the producing end of a number of films for The Walt Disney Company, but never as a director.
"It is a special joy to be in the director's chair as we start The BFG, alongside my long-time friends and film collaborators Kathy Kennedy, who introduced me to this project, Frank Marshall and Melissa Mathison.
"Together with them and Disney, there are many reasons why I am so excited about this joint venture."
Meanwhile, Spielberg has also been tipped to work with Oscar-winning actress Jennifer Lawrence on a new Warner Bros biopic titled 'It's What I Do: A Photographer's Life Of Love And War'.
The duo are said to be in talks over the film, which is based on a memoir by Lynsey Addario and tells the story of a woman who goes into war zones in search of truth.
Daniel Craig has returned to filming for 'Spectre'.
The 47-year-old actor underwent arthroscopic surgery to repair a knee injury he suffered on the set of the new James Bond movie earlier this month and he's now said to be back on location in London already.
A source told The Sun newspaper: "Daniel is made of strong stuff and wanted to return as quick as possible.
"He filmed the face shots but his double was doing all the running.
"Daniel will have to take it easy until his knee is strong enough for strenuous sequences."
It was previously claimed that the hunky star had not missed any filming to have his operation as the "minor procedure" took place during a "scheduled break".
However, it was said he would not be rejoining production until April 22 when filming moved to London's Pinewood Studios.
'Spectre' - which also stars Christoph Waltz, Ralph Fiennes and Dave Bautista - has been filmed in a number of locations including Austria, Rome and Mexico City.
The Sam Mendes-directed film marks Craig's fourth outing as Bond and is scheduled for release in November 2015.

Kevin Hart wants to "leave a legacy" for his children.
The 35-year-old star, who received the Comedic Genius Award at the MTV Movie Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday (12.04.15), dedicated his prize to his family and said his kids were his motivation.
On collecting his award, Kevin - who has two children, Heaven and Hendrix, with his ex-wife Torrei Hart - said: "I want to thank my fiancé ... I want to thank my ex-wife for giving me these two beautiful kids, that are my best friends right now. I want to thank Heaven for being the most amazing daughter ever, and Hendrix for being the most amazing son ever.
"At the end of the day, you all wonder why I work so hard. My kids are with me because I do it all for them, and I'm trying to leave a legacy behind so when it's all said and done, the last name Hart means something."
Kevin combines his movie work with a successful career as a stand-up comedian and recently said his good sense of humour was something he was born with.
The 'Get Hard' star said: "I don't care what anyone says. You can't teach funny. There's different levels of funny - family funny, professional funny, improv funny, coworker funny. Different types of personalities can shine but everybody can't be that person. When you are, you stand out."
Marvel's 'Spider-Man' movie will not be an origin story.
Kevin Feige, the president of the studio, has confirmed that the much-anticipated new movie will work on the assumption that its audience already knows the "specifics" of Peter Parker's life.
He told CraveOnline: "In Spider-Man's very specific case, where there have been two retellings of that origin in the last whatever it's been - [13] years - for us, we are going to take it for granted that people know that, and the specifics.
"It will not be an origin story, but with great power comes great responsibility. It is inherent to who his character is. But we want to reveal it in different ways and spend much more time focusing on this young high school kid in the Marvel Comic universe dealing with his powers."
What's more, Kevin revealed the Marvel Spider-Man will wear a distinctly different outfit to previous on-screen incarnations, but also promised it'd be "classic Spidey".
He shared: "We've already designed the costume, which is different than any of the ones that have come before. And yet ours is classic Spidey, as I think you'll see."
Marvel's Spider-Man is expected to make his debut in 'Captain America: Civil War', with a solo movie set for July 2017.
Vin Diesel sang a tribute to his 'Furious 7' co-star Paul Walker at last night's (12.04.15) MTV Movie Awards in Los Angeles.
The 47-year-old star - who attended the event for the first time without his close friend, who died in a car accident in 2013 - walked on stage to Wiz Khalifa's hit, 'See You Again'.
He said: "The last time I stood on this stage I was with my brother Pablo.
"So I love that little intro you just did with that beautiful song."
Vin then burst into a verse, singing: "It's been a long day without you my friend and I'll tell you all about it when I see you again."
The action star also confirmed an eighth instalment in the 'Fast and Furious' franchise is in the works and will be based in New York, saying it will be a fitting tribute to his friend.
He shared: "Well, I was trying to keep it close to the vest throughout the release.
"Paul [Walker] used to say that eight was guaranteed. And in some ways, when your brother guarantees something, you sometimes feel like you have to make sure it comes to pass."
Bradley Cooper dedicated his Best Male Performance prize at the 2015 MTV Movie Awards to Chris Kyle.
The 40-year-old actor won the coveted prize in Los Angeles last night (12.04.15) on the back of his portrayal of the former US navy SEAL, who's the subject of the Clint Eastwood-directed war drama 'American Sniper'.
Bradley said: "Thank you, thank you. I want to thank MTV and the fans. It's because of you that we have brought awareness for what the men and women in the military do everyday for us.
"Chris Kyle would have been 41 this week. Chris, this is for you."
Chris was the most lethal sniper in US military history with 160 confirmed kills, and although the film has created controversy in some quarters, Bradley has previously defended the movie by saying it shines a light on the work of the military.
He explained: "You never know when you make a movie if anybody's going to see it, so to have the audacity to think that it would cause any sort of effect at all would be pretty presumptuous.
"Any discussion that sheds light on the plight of the soldiers and the men and women in the armed services, for that discussion to occur is fantastic."
