MTV's After Hours has made a name for itself creating the highest quality late night entertainment around. But now, with the help of Ice T, the series could be making its big break into prime time programming.

Enter "Snowy River," which absolutely was definitely not shot on location at the Sundance Film Festival or anything like that (hint: okay maybe it was). Snowy River is a mysterious town with many terrifying murderers on the loose (you could get killed for playing peek-a-boo) and even more interesting inhabitants (just wait until you see the Inarticulate Twins). As the trailer teases, it will be a lot better than "NCIS"... we hope.

The cast of "Scream 4" continues to grow and grow. Lake Bell backed out just this week due to scheduling conflicts, days before production is set to start in earnest, but her role has now been filled by "Grindhouse" star Marley Shelton. She'll play a police officer and old high school friend of Neve Campbell's Sidney.

Also joining the cast are "The O.C." alum Adam Brody and "Scott Pilgrim Vs. the World" actor Erik Knudsen. Brody will also play a cop, one who was raised watching "CSI" on TV. I wonder which flavor? My money's on him as the killer. Knudsen's role appears to be comparable to Jamie Kennedy's in the original "Scream"; he'll have a lot of knowhow about horror movie conventions, and will serve as comic relief. Head over to The Hollywood Reporter's Heat Vision blog for the full story.

Scream 4 CastingWith the “Scream 4” production's July start date fast approaching, Wes Craven is getting down to business and trying to nab some hot young stars so the “Scream” alum can hand off the franchise to a new generation. As we reported earlier, Lake Bell is currently in negotiations to join the cast and Ashley Greene, Hayden Panettiere and Rory Culkin have all been offered key parts.

With Neve Campbell, David Arquette and Courteney Cox set to reprise their roles from the original three films, these new characters clearly must have a connection to one, if not all, of our old friends from Woodsboro. If the deals go through, the most direct of the bunch will be Greene’s character, Jill. Not only is she Sidney Prescott’s cousin, but she’ll also be assuming the role of the film’s leading lady. Panettiere’s role is Jill’s best friend, a major movie geek, and Culkin would play Jill’s love interest. The closest to sealing the deal is Bell, who will play a police officer Sidney knows from her high school days. Read More...

Lake BellIf the title of "Zack and Miri Make a Porno" gives it all away, how's this one: "A Good Old Fashioned Orgy." It's an upcoming sex comedy about a guy named Eric (played by "SNL"'s Jason Sudeikis) who has been living at his parents' house in the Hamptons, until his father (played by Don Johnson) decides to sell it. Eric wants to throw one last party to end all parties, and decides to throw an orgy.

"It's like 'The Big Chill,' but with an orgy at the end," laughed co-star Lake Bell when we caught up with her at the premiere of her latest film, "Pride and Glory." "Or is there? They invite you over for it, but whether it happens, that's a whole 'nother can of worms."

Bell's character Alison is a pretentious psychiatrist from the Upper West Side, and is against the orgy taking place. Read More...
