Whether they walk onto the screen with Bruno’s flamboyant strut or Bond’s deadly finesse, actors can make their marks on cinematic history with their body language as well as their words. In a few cases, those walks have become the stuff of legend and gone on to be at least as well recognized as the movies they appeared in. Here are ten such walks deemed worthy of being named MTV Movies Blog favorites.

10. Harvey Keitel in “Reservoir Dogs”
If you’re talking about walking scenes in movies, there’s no one more imitated or more likely to have put hair on the chests of the actors who made it. Flanked by Michael Madsen and Steve Buscemi, Keitel led Tarantino’s black little parade into the opening credits as Mr. White and no one’s been able to wear a suit quite as well since. Read more...

The gorgeous, violet-eyed vamp that leads unsuspecting humans to their death in “New Moon” will be played by a fashion model, according to E! Online.

25-year-old runway model Noot Seear will be the face of the vampire vixen that is described in the book as “not only the fisherman, but also the bait.”

AnnaLynne McCord, who plays Naomi on “90210,” was in talks for the role last month. The news that she will not be joining the cast will likely disappoint her good friend, and rumored boyfriend, Kellan Lutz, who plays Emmett Cullen. Read more...

Lindsay Lohan has been quite vocal about the difficulties she's had in trying to secure work in Hollywood. She says that she'd love to be getting more work but, thanks to her murky past, people aren't supporting her. "And yes, the Web sites, the gossip pages and all of that stuff have hurt my career — they're like the burn books of Hollywood," she recently told Nylon.

Now comes some bad news about her upcoming movie "Labor Pains," a comedy about a woman who fakes a pregnancy to save herself from getting fired. Not only does the film not have an international release date scheduled, it now isn't getting a theatrical release in the U.S. at all. Instead, "Labor Pains" will head straight to cable before getting released on DVD this summer.

Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz just might save James Mangold's romantic comedy from expiring forever. According to Variety, the actors are in talks to join a Fox comedy that has changed titles and casts a few times over already.

Now untitled, but once known as "Trouble Man" and "Wichita", the story centers on that romantic comedy staple: a woman who has terrible luck with men. A blind date introduces her to a handsome and mysterious man, and their paths end up intertwined. From the old "Trouble Man" title, I'm guessing that "paths intertwined" isn't in the star crossed, Edward and Bella sense, but in something a little more dangerous or weird. Read more...

Orlando Bloom may have kept a lower profile after "Pirates of the Caribbean" than his costars, but he's making up for it this year. He's in the middle of filming Mark Ruffalo's "Sympathy for Delicious" which has him playing a hard rock singer, and he's playing a border guard in the sci-fi thriller "The Cross." Now he's looking to join the ensemble cast of "Main Street," adapted from one of Horton Foote's final screenplays.

Andrew McCarthy, Ellen Burstyn, Patricia Clarkson and Colin Firth are already signed to star in the indie drama, which will be directed by John Doyle. Read more...

Ang Lee's ensemble flick, "Taking Woodstock," boasts an impressive assortment of actors -- from Liev Schrieber and Paul Dano to Emile Hirsch. But at its center is one big question mark, Demitri Martin. Honestly I never cared all that much for Martin's schtick on "The Daily Show." A little too precious for my taste. BUT I am a fan of his new show, "Important Things" over on Comedy Central. So I'm more than a little curious to see if he can carry a film from as revered a director (and notorious taskmaster) as Lee.

The big question is of course, will this decision to bank on Martin look like genius (ie. Lee's casting of undiscovered talents like Katie Holmes and Tobey Maguire in "The Ice Storm") or insanity (ahem, anyone remember Jewel in "Ride with the Devil"?). Here's the trailer. Tell us what you think.

Parents have been reading it for decades. Children have been dreaming about it for generations. We’ve been following the development of the movie for what seems like forever. And now, we finally have our first glimpse at “Where the Wild Things Are.”

Fueled with the distinctive tones of “Wake Up” by Arcade Fire, this first trailer gives us a good look at the October 16th movie directed by “Being John Malkovich” filmmaker Spike Jonze (click here to watch the "Where the Wild Things Are" trailer). Following reports that the movie was too intense for children, being re-edited and re-shot, fans of the 1963 Maurice Sendak children’s book had feared the worst. But judging by this new trailer, we could still be looking at some beautiful “Things” come the fall. Read more...

FROM SPLASH PAGE: Johnny Depp's production company, Infinitum Nihil, already has its script and an impressive lead actor (namely, A-list leading man Depp) tagged for the live-action adaptation of Arvid Nelson and Eric Johnson's comic book series "Rex Mundi." In their search for a "Rex Mundi" director, the bar is remaining as high for the talent behind the camera as it is in front of it.

According to Infinitum Director of Development Sam Sarkar, the studio wants a talent on the level of "Watchmen" mastermind Zack Snyder to bring the Dark Horse series to the big screen.

"We really need to find a guy who has that kind of visual style -- not unlike Zack Snyder," Sarkar told MTV News. "You need a guy that’s that kind of visionary to do 'Rex,' because it’s a really visually complex world."

For more on the search for a "Rex Mundi" director, head over to SplashPage.MTV.com.

When the pairing of Jack White and Alicia Keys was first announced for the "Quantum of Solace" theme song, we expectedly were all over it. So needless to say, now that "Quantum" has arrived in stores we're still clamoring for the dynamic duo.

Thankfully the two are spotlighted on the "Quantum" DVD and Blu-ray release in a special bonus feature which you can watch below. In the featurette, we're given a fly-on-the-wall view of the making of the "Another Way To Die" music video filmed against a large green screen. Check it out and then pick up the DVD or Blu-ray, out this week.

As a lifelong, die-hard 3 Stooges fan, I’m not ashamed to admit that I bought a ticket and saw the 1986 dud “Stoogemania" in a movie theater. If the producers are reading this – yes, it was my father and I who gave you folks the $10 that the movie grossed domestically.

Until today, the idea of casting Zero Mostel’s kid as “Howard F. Howard” in a poorly-written clunker stuffed with archive footage was one of the worst Hollywood ideas I’d ever seen executed on the silver screen. Then, I read that the rumors were true and that the Farrelly brothers were casting Sean Penn, Jim Carrey and Benicio del Toro as the new Stooges. Josh Mostel, you might finally be off the hook.
