A pair of high-profile actors are looking to join the cast of Seth MacFarlane‘s upcoming western comedy A Million Ways to Die in the West, a sequel to his hit comedy Ted.

Taken and The Grey star Liam Neeson has entered into negotiations for a role in the movie, and Avatar and Saving Private Ryan star Giovanni Ribisi is already locked in to play one of the characters.

Well it appears that Carrie Fisher is once again toying with the media about starring in Star Wars Episode VII. She did it earlier last November, and just yesterday we reported that she said she would be starring in the film. However the first time she said it, it came from a book signing and not from a legitimate source or press release. Her most recent fib came from a source, but not one that covers entertainment news.

Her rep clarified Fisher’s comments to CNN today, saying, “She was joking, nothing has been announced.” Based on one of her comments about Princess Leia being in an old folk’s home, it’s not surprising to hear that it was all a joke.

ComiXology has announced a new service called comiXology Submit which could be a real game-changer when it comes to comic book publishing.

The service is built mainly for independent comic book and graphic novel creators. It will allow them to upload their works for free, and, if approved, comiXology will then take over, prepare it, and make it available to the masses so that your work can be seen by many and you can make a profit.

We’ve been hearing about a remake of the 1982 Tobe Hooper-directed and Steven Spielberg-produced horror classic Poltergeist for quite some time now, but, unlike a bunch of other MGM remakes, haven’t yet seen it go into production.

The remake is being produced by The Evil Dead director Sam Raimi (who’s also a producer on the remake of his own movie, Evil Dead), and now MGM has found their director.

Gil Kenan, who’s best known for directing the dark computer animated performance capture feature Monster House, has been chosen to helm the Poltergeist remake.
