It was only a few years ago that Bradley Cooper was a struggling actor looking for roles. Sure, he was in a few movies, and had a nice role on the Jennifer Garner spy series, Alias. But in the Summer of 2009, Cooper’s life changed. He starred in the comedy hit, The Hangover, which turned him into a Hollywood star. Cooper’s new movie, Limitless, co-starring legendary actor, Robert De Niro opens in theatres this Friday.
Cooper knows that if it wasn’t for the success of The Hangover, he wouldn’t be starring opposite De Niro in Limitless. (Click on the audio player to hear Bradley Cooper)

Jane Lynch has become a household name because of “Glee.” Of course, we loved her in Christopher Guest’s “mockumentary” movies, and how can we forget her playing the hilarious Dr. Linda Freeman on “Two and a Half Men”?
However, it’s “Glee” that has catapulted Lynch into Hollywood’s elite and made her a household name. Her performance has earned her an Emmy and a Golden Globe Award. After playing the character of Coach Sue Sylvester for almost two seasons, Lynch knows exactly who this woman is. So we asked her if she ever gives “Glee” creator Ryan Murphy any input on how to write for her. (Click on the audio player to hear Jane Lynch)

Producer Steven Spielberg and Director J.J. Abrams will be bringing us what could be one of the biggest hits of the summer, “Super 8.” The movie is about six young children who are filming a movie about zombies with a Super 8 camera. While filming their movie, they witness a train accident, and from that accident, something that isn’t human emerges.
The film looks like somewhat of a mix between Spielberg’s E.T. and 1977 film, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, which are considered two of the best science fiction films of all time. Add to the mix a great director like J.J. Abrams, and a magical movie will surely be made.
Check out the trailer and let us know if you agree with us.

As everyone expected, Battle:Los Angeles dominated at the box office this weekend taking in $36.0 million. The film received mostly positive reviews, and the special effects were amazing. There was no doubt Battle: Los Angeles would take the top spot, it was just a matter of much it would earn.
The family animated movie, Rango, which claimed last weeks top spot, fell to second place grossing $23.1 million. This is not bad considering three other movies, Red Riding Hood, Battle: Los Angeles, and Mars Needs Moms, all opened this weekend.
Red Riding Hood finished in third place pulling in a very disappointing $14.1 million. The film received mostly negative reviews, despite having a likeable cast led by Amanda Seyfried.
Rounding out the top five at the box office were the romantic thriller, The Adjustment Bureau, starring Matt Damon and Emily Blunt, which came in forth place earning $11.5 million, and the disappointment of the weekend was the Walt Disney animated family film, Mars Needs Moms, making only $6.8 million in the fifth place spot.
It’s hard to believe that the iconic animated FOX series, The Simpsons, is now in its 22nd season. Over these 22 years, the show has garnered many awards, including 27 Primetime Emmy Awards. Time Magazine named The Simpsons the best television series of the 20th Century.
Dan Castellaneta, who has voiced the character “Homer Simpson” for all these years, told us that he is proud that the show has won so many awards, and that the show is still top quality. (Click on the audio player to hear Dan Castellaneta)
