Mark Strong is set to star in 'Grimbsy'.
The 'Green Lantern' actor is currently in negotiations to star opposite Sacha Baron Cohen in the comedy as a Black-op spy who is forced to go on the run with his long-lost brother, an English football hooligan....
Aerosmith drummer Joey Kramer thinks there is "almost no reason" for the band to ever release another album.
The 63-year-old musician claims records don't make any money and the 'Crazy' hitmakers would have to pay for it themselves.
He told Ultimate Classic Rock: "It would be great to make another record, but it's almost [like], 'Why bother?'
"Records don't sell, and they don't do anything. There are no record companies to pay for it, so you have to pay for it out of your pocket.
"Especially with us now, because we're a free agent - we're no longer with a record company."
The drummer insists the band - also made up of Steve Tyler, Tom Hamilton, Joe Perry and Brad Whitford - used to make money from selling records but their last album, 2012's 'Music from Another Dimension!' didn't do as well as expected and their income now comes from touring the world.
He continued: "Artistically, it would be fun to make another record and it would be a beautiful thing if we can put it together.
"There's almost no reason to do it, you know, judging from the last one and how it went over.
"It's frustrating, because personally I think it's a really good record. It's an Aerosmith record and it was done the way we used to do them."
But he claims certain things held it back, including the state of the music industry at the moment.
Joey added: "Music now is so disposable. It's so, like, 'Okay, here it is and five minutes later there's something else'. We're not the Justin Biebers and the Nicki Minajs of the world, so unfortunately, records don't make sense."
Lily Allen is planning to apologise to Rita Ora and models Cara Delevingne and Jourdan Dunn over songs on her new album.
The 'Hard Out Here' hitmaker, who is about to release her new record 'Sheezus', appears to hit out at the stars by joking about celebrities who attend corporate events.
According to the Daily Mirror newspaper, she said: "I still need to write letters to Rita Ora and Cara Delevingne.
"The song where I appear to slag off Rita and Jourdan is very much the same premise as Cheryl Tweedy. It's not about them, it's about the idea of them."
Meanwhile, the 28-year-old star, who has made her comeback after a four-year hiatus, was copied into harsh emails about her new material from a focus group when her record label carried out market research for her new album.
She told Pop Justice: "I accidentally got copied in on a whole bunch of it and reading it was one of the most horrible moments of my life.
"They don't actually tell the people what it is that they're listening to. So a lot of it was just people going, 'Is this Lily Allen? It f****ng is Lily Allen', 'If this is her I thought she'd fucking retired, the stupid ****!'"
She insists she found the bad feedback, which she received six months ago, "totally unhelpful" for her career.
Lily added: "The thing is, people who take part in market research: are they really representative of the marketplace? Probably not."
The Libertines will headline Barclaycard presents British Summer Time Hyde Park.
The indie band have confirmed they will reunite for the London concert on July 5, supported by Pogues, Spiritualized, Maximo Park and The Enemy.
The band posted on their Facebook page today (25.04.14): "It's official... THE GOOD SHIP ALBION IS SETTING SAIL SOONER THAN YOU THOUGHT. We're HEADLINING BST Hyde Park, 5th July."
Frontman Pete Doherty previously hinted the band would play the gig after admitting he is suffering "financial difficulty".
The musician hopes the large sum of money he will receive for reforming with co-frontman Carl Barât, drummer Gary Powell and bassist John Hassall will help clear the huge debt he accumulated after discovering he had fathered an 18-month old daughter.
According to musicharger.com, Pete - who already has son, Astile and daughter Aisling from previous relationships - told an Israeli newspaper: "I'm in debt. It's very complicated for me to say 'No' right now, I have financial problems."
The group also teased their appearance at the festival by posting a picture of Hyde Park to their Facebook page.
Despite splitting up in 2004 following arguments in the band, The Libertines - formed in 1997 - temporarily reunited to play at Reading and Leeds festivals in 2010 and received praise for their performances.
Metal band Black Sabbath, Sir Tom Jones, Neil Young and Crazy Horse, The National, McBusted, Little Mix, The Vamps and the Backstreet Boys will also play British Summer Time taking place between July 4 and 13.

Harry Styles has been having bird poo facials.
The One Direction star has been having droppings rubbed onto his face as part of an intensive course of treatments, traditionally known in Japan as the Geisha facial, in a desperate bid to clear up his acne before the group's world tour begins.
A source told the Daily Star newspaper: "Harry's been having a bird poo facial everyday in the run-up to the tour. He doesn't want to be as spotty as he's been in the past. He's really struggled with his skin over the years."
It's thought Harry heard about the unusual treatment - made with powdered excrement from a nightingale bird, rice bran and water - through his tattoo artist, Freddy Negrete, who assured the singer that the facial is a favourite with Hollywood stars such as Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt.
While the facial is said to have an unpleasant smell, the coveted treatments can cost anywhere from £100 a session and its thought the 20-year-old hunk is seeing positive results already as the formula also includes toning and anti-wrinkle agents.
The source added: "So far [Harry's] happy with the results. It's given him a really glowing look."
Harry and his bandmates Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne and Louis Tomlinson will kick off their 'Where We Are' world tour at the El Campin Stadium in Bogotá, Colombia, tonight (25.04.14).
50 Cent has been hit with an $11 million lawsuit from a model who has accused him of ruining her career.
Sally Ferreira claims the 38-year-old rapper lost her work and caused her emotional distress by branding her a "thirsty video b**ch" on Instagram.
The 'Candy Shop' hitmaker took to his account after photographs from a music video shoot for 'Big Rich Town', which was shot on board a train in The Bronx, New York, on March 23, were leaked online.
The photos showed 50 up close and personal with Ms Ferreira, which led to speculation that the pair were dating.
The rapper, real name Curtis Jackson, accused the brunette beauty of leaking the photographs herself and claimed she was bragging that she was dating him.
He wrote on March 27: "WARNING: Do not attempt to work with this thirsty Video b**** [Her name is Sally Ferreira and she's a model...] she sent photos Of the video shoot to Mediatakeout Saying I'm in a relationship Withher Cananyone say RESHOOT (sic)"
The lawsuit, obtained by the New York Daily News newspaper, states Ferreira lost a number of work projects after the Instagram post, which was deleted a few hours afterwards.
Her lawsuit claims: "Before the defamatory posting, Ms. Ferreira was working on three separate entertainment industry projects and enjoyed a good reputation in the industry.
"As a direct and proximate result of the defamatory posting and the subsequent media fallout and negative publicity surrounding Ms. Ferreira, as of the date of this filing, all three projects have been put indefinitely on hold.
"Moreover, as a direct and proximate result of Mr. Jackson's actions, Ms. Ferreira has been subjected to harsh and hurtful comments about her profession, character, and appearance, causing her severe emotional distress."
Johnny Depp splashed out £125,000 on a limited-edition book for Amber Heard's birthday.
The 50-year-old actor forked out on the massive sum on a rare Ernest Hemingway short story collection called 'In Our Time' to mark his fiancée's 28th birthday on Tuesday (22.04.14).
The 'Pirates of the Caribbean' star also bought his literature-loving partner several 18th Century poetry books and a leather-bound diary, taking the grand total of his expenditure up to £140,000.
A source told The Sun newspaper: "Johnny's head-over-heels in love with Amber and isn't scared of grand gestures to show just how much he appreciates her. He went all out for her birthday, sourcing rare books that she'd had her eye on for quite some time.
"He then went with her to pick them up at the shop, making out that it was a complete surprise that they happened to have them in stock."
The lovebirds, who got engaged earlier this year after meeting on the set of 'The Rum Diary', were spotted snapping up the vintage tomes in New York City, before heading to the exclusive Bowery Hotel.
Johnny is said to have pulled out all the stops to give Amber an evening to remember, arranging for roses to be laid out in their suite and a string quartet to play in the background during dinner.
The insider added: "Johnny's so crazy about Amber that people in his inner-circle wouldn't be very surprised if they had already married in secret and just don't want to announce it officially yet."
Johnny separated from his long-term partner Vanessa Paradis, the mother of his children Lily-Rose, 14, and Jack, 11, in the summer of 2012, and has been smitten with Amber ever since.
Mariah Carey spends £28,000-a year-grooming her pet dogs.
The '#Beautiful' hitmaker - who is worth around £290 million - regularly pampers her eight pet pooches by booking them into canine salons and gets them the best animal treatments so they look their best and are happy.
A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "Mariah pays for all the spa therapies herself and doesn't expect any special treatment. Only her dogs get that.
"While prices start at £40 for a simple trim, other treatments are extra and Mariah's dogs really seem to enjoy their wraps and full body massages.
"She pays for her doggies to travel with her first class on a whim. And when they can't she will check them into doggy day care at salons Chateau Marmutt, Barkingham Palace or Pour La Pooch. She also employs a designated chauffeur to ferry them to and from at around £400 a time."
Mariah's favourite treatment to get for her mutts is the popular blueberry facial, which originates in Los Angeles, and is supposed to exfoliate and reduce fur stains.
The source explained: "She will always get the animals groomed before travelling - she likes them smart at all times.
"As well having them bathed and blow dried, Mariah is also very keen on the latest LA trend for canines - blueberry facials."
Mariah - who has two-year-old twins, Moroccan and Monroe, with her husband Nick Cannon - is said to be "obsessed" with the way her dogs smell following their treatments and is delighted they help reduce wrinkles.
The source added: "She's obsessed with how they smell after one.
"The facials are also great for getting rid of doggy wrinkles, so everyone's a winner."
Pauline McLynn has joined 'EastEnders' as Charlie Cotton's mother.
The former 'Father Ted' actress - best known for playing long-suffering housekeeper Mrs Doyle in the hit sitcom - has been cast in the role of Yvonne Cotton.
Pauline will be introduced when soap stalwart Dot Branning (June Brown) makes a "surprising discovery" and seeks answers about her grandson, played by Declan Bennett.
Pauline commented: "It is a thrill to join 'EastEnders', my favorite soap, and in particular any chance to be part of a Dot Cotton storyline is not to be passed up - June Brown is a legend and I feel privileged to act with her."
Executive producer Dominic Treadwell-Collins added: "I have always been a little in love with Pauline McLynn so I'm so excited that she's joining the Cotton family. It was about time Albert Square had another Irish character and I know that viewers are going to both love and be intrigued by Yvonne Cotton."
The Cotton family has been reinvigorated in recent months following the shock news that Dot's dastardly son Nick Cotton fathered a secret child, Charlie.
Charlie arrived in Albert Square in March to inform Dot her son had died, but viewers have seen him behave suspiciously regarding his father's death, leading fans to believe all is not as it seems.
Niall Horan is worried he won't get enough sleep before One Direction's 'Where We Are' stadium tour begins tonight (25.04.14).
The 20-year-old star pleaded with fans outside his hotel in Bogota, Colombia, to "keep the noise down" in the early hours of Friday morning so he can get enough rest before the 'You and I' heartthrobs perform the first show on their 69-date tour.
He wrote on Twitter: "Big day tomorrow! Gona try and get some sleep! Gona be hard!
"I honestly think this hotel is made of paper! Haha! It feels like the people outside are in my room haha! Not a chance of sleep tonight
"Guys! May I ask you to keep the noise down please ! All of our crew are tired! and we have a big day tomorrow! Don't want to sound angry !
"Thank you ! Much appreciated ! Big day for all tomorrow! Love you lots! Goodnight! Xxx (sic)"
Niall's desperate bid for sleep came after he and his bandmates - Harry Styles, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne and Louis Tomlinson - had a "long day" of rehearsals putting the final touches on their stadium show.
He wrote: "Just done a couple of final run throughs of the show! Can't wait now! Been a long day and the fans have been incredible in bogota! Much love (sic)"
The final 'Hobbit' movie has been renamed 'The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies'.
Director Peter Jackson has revealed the final instalment in his epic fantasy trilogy, which is due for release in December, will not be titled 'The Hobbit: There and Back Again' as he no longer finds the name appropriate following his decision to expand the original pair of 'Hobbit' of films into a trilogy, much like his earlier 'Lord of the Rings' films.
In a statement on his Facebook page, Jackson explained: "'There and Back Again' felt like the right name for the second of a two film telling of the quest to reclaim Erebor, when Bilbo's arrival there, and departure, were both contained within the second film. But with three movies, it suddenly felt misplaced--after all, Bilbo has already arrived 'there' in the 'Desolation of Smaug'.
"When we did the premiere trip late last year, I had a quiet conversation with the studio about the idea of revisiting the title. We decided to keep an open mind until a cut of the film was ready to look at. We reached that point last week, and after viewing the movie, we all agreed there is now one title that feels completely appropriate.
"And so: "The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies" it is."
'The Battle of the Five Armies' refers to the epic conclusion of 'The Hobbit', which features a huge war among the various characters and creatures featured in the mythical series.
