Here are some cool film news you really shouldn't miss on this July 31, 2009:
• "Gremlins" director Joe Dante recently spoke to Empire about the possiblity of a "Gremlins 3." He said it will probably be more of a remake than a sequel, and the creatures will be generated in CG. Chris Columbus, who created the little creatures, won't be on board though.
• Billy Crudup has signed on to join Ryan Murphy's "Eat, Pray, Love," which also stars Julia Roberts and Richard Jenkins. The story follows a married woman (Roberts) who sets out to discover herself after realizing the life she's leading is not really the life she wants. Crudup plays her husband. (Variety)
• Nacho Vigalondo is set to direct Mandate Pictures' "Gangland," about a group of video-game creators who end up having to survive in the the dangerous realistic world they themselves created. Steve Zaillian (“Schindler’s List”) will produce the flick, which Pat Healy will write. (The Hollywood Reporter)
