| Paul Rudd Goes Up To Bat In ‘The Catcher Was A Spy’
Paul Rudd will return as Scott Lang aka Hank Pym in Captain America: Civil War next week, and will reprise his role again in Ant-Man And The Wasp. It’ll be safe to assume that he will maintain that comedic charm he had when we first saw him don the incredible shrinking suit – and wait until you see what he does in Civil War. But the actor has proven himself to be much more than an improviser, and a great one at that. A new report says that Rudd will play a more serious role in The Catcher Is A Spy, a film about a major league baseball player who became a spy for the OSS, a predecessor agency of the CIA. More on the story below.

| Sam Raimi’s ‘World Of Warcraft’ To Be Written By ‘Saving Private Ryan’ Scribe |
 |

Back in July, it was announced that Sam Raimi would be directing the long-rumored movie adaptation of MMO powerhouse, World of Warcraft. This along with Spider-Man 4 presented two gigantic and time-consuming projects for the Evil Dead and Drag Me To Hell director, and it is still uncertain which will be coming first. It was first assumed that the WoW movie would be based on a spinoff novel that was written within the game’s world called Arthas: Rise of the Lich King, but it is now confirmed via an interview with MTV that the movie will be an original story set in the world and involving its characters. It was also confirmed that the movie is being written by Saving Private Ryan scripter Robert Rodat and that it will likely be simply titled Warcraft. Turning a game like Warcraft into a movie is probably about as difficult as it could be to turn a game into a movie. Being an MMO, there is a story, but the game is never-ending and the story isn’t the selling point, so you have to pick and choose what you want to use and construct a story out of these countless elements, settings, and characters. The challenge becomes even greater knowing the track record of video game based movies, as we all are well-aware of, so the mountain for Raimi is large. Click over to read what Raimi had to say.
