"Definitely, Maybe" has a lot of things going for it...the pretty looks and smart mouth of Ryan Reynolds, the cuteness of little Abigail Breslin, and the pure, unadulterated hotness of Rachel Weisz, Elizabeth Banks and Isla Fisher. Now we've got an exclusive look at the film, which finds Reynolds as an advertising executive chronicling his past relationships to his daughter (Breslin), as his marriage unravels. In the clip below, Summer (Weisz) interrogates Will (Reynolds) over a personal diary that he just returned.

You've been to Disney World, ridden all the rides at Six Flags. The staff at Universal City know you by name. So where's an intrepid, theme park enthusiast to go next? Why, to "Adventureland," of course, the new amusement destination featured in director Greg Mottola's "Superbad" follow-up.

Just make sure you bring a copy of your life insurance, joked co-star Kristen Wiig.

"A lot of times towns will have the really great amusement park," she smiled. "And then they'll have the kind of scary one where you really don't want to go on the rides because you're afraid you might be killed. Read more...

It's no secret that megastar Julia Roberts recently had a son. But who woulda thunk he'd already look like Ryan Reynolds?

"Most of the time when I say that I'm doing a movie with Julia Roberts people would say, 'Oh, you're a couple,'" "The Nines" star said of the laughs he gets from telling friends about his new movie, "Fireflies in the Garden," which he stars in alongside Roberts. "It kills me. Let me have a love affair with Julia Roberts. That'd be fantastic! Sadly, no, she's my mother."

But how in the world can 40-year-old Julia Roberts play mother to 30-year-old Reynolds?

"The movie actually takes place over a great deal of time," Reynolds clarified. "She's a woman in her mid-30s throughout [most of] the film, while in some portions she's much older. She's doing a lot of prosthetic age makeup." Read more...

Given that Ryan Reynolds recently suggested that a potential Flash movie might have only died a comic-book death, you'd think asking him what graphic character he'd be most excited to play would be met with a fairly predictable answer. Think again. Faster than the Flash could ever be, Reynolds says the super he's most dying to play is Wade Wilson.

"I've always wanted to do 'Deadpool,' " he enthused, his voice taking on the air of unbridled geek excitement. "I think I would forgo anything to play it in some incarnation."

The "Merc With a Mouth," Wilson is a sarcastic, scheming hero known for his wisecracks and black humor. In other words, a perfect fit for the acerbic Reynolds.

"He's a derivative of the Weapons X program," Reynolds explained of the character's origins (it's the same program, incidentally, that plays so prominently in the backstory of Wolverine). "They turned him into a puddle and shipped him off. Just left him for dead. But he came back with all these mutant powers. And he's pissed off — in a full-fledged, I'm gonna get you way."

Yesterday we wrote all about how Ryan Reynolds still seemed into portraying The Flash whether in a film of his own or in a Justice League adventure. Now we offer video of some of our reporter's encounter with Reynolds. As you can see, Reynolds is a bit evasive, but check out that smile and raised set of eyebrows at the end. He's not telling us something!

Ryan Reynolds says "The Flash" may yet live. It just might not be in the superhero's own film first. Just hours ago, our own Shawn Adler peppered the oft-rumored star of "The Flash" about his association with the DC comics speedster and here's what Reynolds said: "'The Flash' isn't dead at all. There's talk of it being a JLA movie, the Justice League having them all together. And then there's other talk of doing a 'Flash' movie with [director] Shawn Levy."

Rumors of a Justice League movie have gained momentum in recent weeks. Now we're hearing it straight from one of the potential stars' mouths. When asked if he thought the JLA film might happen first, Reynolds told us, "[it] might, yeah. I don't really know how much I'm allowed to talk about that stuff. But I'm sure they'll figure out something. It's no secret that they have a JLA script and it's a project that's in development – the contents of which, who knows. We'll see."

For an actor who's no longer "officially" attached to play a role, Reynolds sounded very excited about the prospect of a Justice League film, "I'd love to see a full on Justice League movie done, the scope of which is just enormous. I think it's something they can pull off."
