According to The Hollywood Reporter, Hathaway is set to both star in and produce the thriller "Puzzler" at Paramount. It is being described as similar to "Three Days of the Condor," the Robert Redford film that followed a CIA researcher who finds all his friends dead and needs to stay several steps ahead of his attackers. The movie will be written by "Tresspass" scribe Karl Gajdusek. No word yet on when it will go in front of the camera.

Anne Hathaway

Remember when Anne Hathaway took to the Oscars stage to great acclaim? No, the entirety of her hosting gig wasn't a success, but when she sang "On My Own" opposite Hugh Jackman at this year's show, she impressed everyone with her Broadway-ready vocals and moves.

Well, Anne is ready to reunite with her Oscar partner (Jackman, not Franco) as Deadline reports that the star has signed on as Fantine in an upcoming big screen adaptation of "Les Miserables," with Jackman appearing as Jean Valjean.

'Dark Knight Rises': Anne Hathaway's Cute Cat Playlist

Posted 8/18/11 2:39 pm EST by Terri Schwartz in Humor

Considering the recent track record for live action attempts at capturing Catwoman on screen (sorry Halle Berry), it makes sense that "The Dark Knight Rises" star Anne Hathaway did her research for the role by watching cat videos on YouTube instead of studying previous Catwoman incarnations.

In a recent interview, Hathaway said that originally one of the assistant directors on the flick had tried to convince her to adopt a cat and have it live with her so she could "observe it," but then realized that was an awful idea (she couldn't keep the cat!).

Fortunately there's the Internet, and Hathaway turned to YouTube for help. Hathaway says she just watched a National Geographic video to inspire her performance, but we think there's no way she could have avoided spending hours upon end watching funny cat videos on YouTube. That's why we took the time and effort to dream up Anne Hathaway's Kitty Research Playlist.

Very suitable for work hilarity begins after the jump.

'Dark Knight Rises' Set Suffers A Catwoman Crash

Posted 8/10/11 5:12 pm EST by Terri Schwartz in Dailies

Catwoman's suit in "The Dark Knight Rises" might not look like much on the surface, but apparently it has a violent streak.

The images of Anne Hathaway that hit the web last week showed her riding an all-terrain bike down a set of stairs, and according to reports things went a bit awry during the stunt. When Hathaway's stunt double was performing that scene, the bike ended up running into one of the production's IMAX cameras. Apparently neither the camera nor the cameraman were injured in the crash, but we're hoping that wasn't the extra 90 percent Hathaway was talking about in her recent MTV interview:

Oscars 2011: Academy President Sticks Up For James Franco And Anne Hathaway

Posted 3/3/11 12:20 pm EST by Aly Semigran in Oscars

Oscars It could have been the lack of "Harry Potter" and "Twilight" cast members in attendance, or the fact that the momentum shifted from "The Social Network" to "The King's Speech," or the decision to "ban" Banksy, or the snubs for appealing stars like Ryan Gosling, Mila Kunis, Justin Timberlake and Andrew Garfield.

Whatever it was, the 83rd Annual Academy Awards did not draw, or captivate, the younger audience it had set its sights on this year by bringing in hosts James Franco and Anne Hathaway.

But it wasn't just the younger set that Franco and Hathaway failed to impress. Many have criticized the duo and the show itself as disjointed and unfunny in the days since the Oscars telecast. Now, Academy president Tom Sherak is speaking out in defense of the stars in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, explaining exactly why he doesn't see the evening as a misstep.

Oscars 2011: James Franco And Anne Hathaway Get Their 'Grease' On

Posted 2/24/11 12:45 pm EST by MTV Movies Team in News, Oscars

Franco and Hathaway by Sterling Wong

Ever since modern day Renaissance man James Franco registered his own Twitter account last week, he’s been keeping us entertained with his frequently random and sometimes bizarre postings.

Franco's Twitter feed got all of us buzzing with extra excitement yesterday for a very Oscar-related reason: the actor, student and whole-bunch-of-other-things posted a short YouTube video of himself and his Academy Awards co-host Anne Hathaway sporting all-black skin-tight leather and teased-up big hair.

Yes, we’re talking about Danny and Sandy from “Grease,” which the duo appear to be paying homage to. Check out the video after the jump!
