Jaime Bell heads to 'The Retreat'

Jamie Bell is the latest to join Cillian Murphy and Thandie Newton in Carl Tibbets' directorial debut "The Retreat," a new thriller shooting this month, according to Deadline. Tibbets wrote the script.

The story follows a couple heading to an island to enjoy a vacation and work on their broken relationship. Alas, when they find a dead soldier, they soon realize everyone has been killed by a airborne virus.

Cool concept for sure. Think of it as a more serious "Couples Retreat." Anyway, Bell scored the lead in "The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn." He'll also show up in "The Eagle" and "Jane Eyre."

Cillian Murphy is working on a deal to star in Andrew Niccol's sci-fi flick "I'm.mortal." Amanda Seyfried and Justin Timberlake are already on board, and Fox and New Regency are developing the flick.

The movie is set in a world in which people stop aging when they hit the age of 25. Time is the most precious currency now, and the rich are immortal. Everyone else is struggling. Sounds intriguing, right?

More specifically, the plot follows a ghetto rebel who is framed for murdering a rich dude and goes on the run with a hostage (played by Seyfried). They later discover love is more important than anything...

Ellen Page, Marion Cotillard to join 'Inception'

Ellen Page, Marion Cotillard and Cillian Murphy are in negotiations to joing Leonardo DiCaprio in Christopher Nolan's upcoming sci-fi action flick "Inception."

Plot details are strictly kept under wraps, but according to the Hollywood Reporter, the project is described as a film set within "the architecture of the mind."

The trade also revealed DiCaprio would play CEO-type character, with Cotillard starring as his wife. Page could star as a college grad. It's not exactly the most compelling information, but I guess it's better than nothing.

Nolan plans to shoot the thing this summer and release "Inception" July 16, 2010. Besides "The Dark Knight," Nolan also directed "The Prestige," "Batman Begins" and "Memento."

Now, Page can next be seen in "Whip It!," while Cotillard will soon return to the big screen in "Public Enemies." Cillian Murphy's upcoming projects include "Peacock" and "Hippie Hippie Shake."
