I'm glad every time I hear about a casting story involving funny guy "Zach Galifianakis." He just dominated "The Hangover" with his incredibly funny performance, and I can't wait to see him on the big screen again. Well, he's certainly keeping himself awful busy these days.

Galifianakis is now in talks to join "It's Kind of a Funny Story," a dramedy by Ryan Fleck and Anna Boden, the team behind "Half Nelson." Emma Roberts from "Hotel for Dogs" may also board the film, which will shoot later this year.

Topher Grace, Emma Roberts and Hector Elizondo have joined Julia Roberts, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Alba, Jessica Biel, Jennifer Garner, Shirley MacLaine, Bradley Cooper and Ashton Kutcher in "Valentine's Day."

The Hollywood Reporter says Grace plays a mailroom worker who dates Hathaway's character. Roberts is on-board as a teenager trying to sleep with her boyfriend. Elizondo plays MacLaine's husband.

Wow, what a cast! Roberts recenty starred in "Hotel for Dogs." As for Grace, the "That '70s Show" alumnus will soon be seen in "Young Americans." Hector Elizondo's credits include "Chicago Hope," "Monk" and "The Princess Diaries" series.

Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson, Ellen Barkin, Kiefer Sutherland, Chace Crawford, Emma Roberts and Rory Culkin have signed on to star in Joel Schumacher's "Twelve."

Based on the novel by Nick McDonell, the film centers on a former high schooler and drug dealer whose life takes a drastic turn after his best friend is arrested for murdering the dealer's cousin. Jordan Melamed wrote the screenplay.

Schumacher most recently directed "The Number 23," which I admit I pretty much hated. His credits also include "The Phantom of the Opera," "Veronica Guerin" and "Bad Company."

Jackson last starred in "Righteous Kill," and he's got plenty of future projects lined up. Roberts was recently seen in "Hotel for Dogs," while Barkin last appeared in "Ocean's Thirteen." As for Crawford, he's been busy doing "Gossip Girl."

Culkin's credits include "Signs" and "Mean Creek," and Sutherland is still running around as Jack Bauer. He also voiced a character in "Monsters vs. Aliens."
