TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES---Will Arnett will co-star with Megan Fox and Alan Ritchson in the Michael Bay reboot movie. DOCTOR WHO---the BBC confirmed that the Zygons will appear in the 50th anniversary show. GAME OF THRONES---was renewed for Season 4. PLANES---Disney animated movie underway with the voices of TOP GUN stars Anthony Edwards and Val Kilmer in which a crop dusting plane wants to join an around-the-world air race. TWO AND HALF MEN---Hillary Duff tweeted that she will guest star as a love interest for Ashton Kutcher's character, "So excited to be joining the cast of @TwoHalfMen_CBS this week! I get to play a crazy drunk girl, funnnn!!!" He also falls for her grandmother who is played by Marilu Henner. ELIZA GRAVES---Jim Sturgess (CLOUD ATLAS) will co-star with Kate Beckinsale in this movie based on an Edgar Allan Poe short story in which a doctor takes a job in an insane asylum and discovers the patients have taken over. THE INFINITY PRINCIPLE---movie underway in which a scientist discovers the secret of time travel which causes the fabric of the universe to break apart. FX---series titled CONQUISTADORS underway about the Spanish Conquistadors conquest of the Inca Empire. A six-part miniseries titled THEY MARCHED INTO SUNLIGHT involves two events during the Vietnam War: the 1967 ambush of the Black Lion Battalion and the University of Wisconsin student protest against Down Chemical and its napalm. THE BRAND---movie underway about US Attorney Gregory Jessner's prosecution of leaders of the Aryan Brotherhood prison gang. JUSTIFIED---question and answer session with Graham Yost. Q: Will you repeat the mystery theme used in the current season? A: "One is would we do it again? Probably not, but only because we've already done it." Q: Is Ava returning? A: "We plan on seeing her a lot next season." Q: Where's Johnny? A: "Johnny has opened a little bed and breakfast in Corben. No, we got stuck at the end of 12, and there was only so much real estate in the final episode, and we really wanted to focus on Raylan and Boyd. We did let Johnny dangle. He's out there in the wind...it's a good thing to have dangling in the wind. I don't know how, where or when he'll be used, but there's obviously a big X on his back, and on Moonie and Lee Paxton's backs, too." Q: Is Patton Oswalt returning as Constable Bob? A: "Yeah, Constable Bob still has his job. We just have to see. It's always our fear with these characters everybody loves: we're just terrified of wearing out the welcome. How much we see of Bob next season, I can't say. But I know that Bob is a big part of the show going forward." Q: You've had Gerald McRaney and Jim Beaver from DEADWOOD, so is Ian McShane next? A: "(laughs) With me, it's usually "DEADWOOD, BOOMTOWN or THE PACIFIC". Q: There's a race between you and Kurt Sutter (SONS OF ANARCHY) for DEADWOOD stars, so will you win by getting McShane? A: "We'll see. We've talked about it. It's just trying to talk about the right thing for him, and again subject to availability. Believe me, if we got a call from Ian McShane saying he wanted to be on the show, then maybe we would try to focus on that and find something for him. A little bit of that happened with Gerald: interest was expressed, and Tim's known him for years, and we thought this character might be a good fit for him." Q: If you had your druthers, how long will the series continue? A: "Druthers, really, six years. Two more seasons. It's difficult. Tim and I will both say that it's the best job we've ever had in many respects. And Tim would say he'd happily play Raylan for the rest of his life, but then it's finding the stories that really intrigue us. And in terms of this world, a big part is the Raylan and Boyd relationship. How many more moves do we have of that? That almost becomes a bigger concern. And just the Kentucky of it. if we were to move the show outside of Kentucky, it would be a very different show that we couldn't put under the JUSTIFIED banner anymore. JUSTIFIED is Kentucky."

THURSDAY, APRIL 4 THE WALKING DEAD---spoiler alert (see below). WORLD WAR Z---new poster for the Brad Pitt zombie movie which premiers on June 21. FURY---Brad Pitt is in negotiations to star in this movie about the crew of a US tank named "Fury" battling a desperate German division in the last days of World War II. Writer David Ayers said his script is intended, “to bring tank combat to life in a way that lands with a modern audience.” Producer Bill Block added, “FURY is not your father’s WWII movie, it digs deep into the complexities of battlefield heroism.” INTERSTELLAR---Matthew McConaughey confirmed he will play the lead role in the sci fi movie from Christopher Nolan (THE DARK KNIGHT, INCEPTION) about an interstellar voyage involving wormholes. CINDERELLA---three finalists for the live-action movie directed by Kenneth Branagh are Margot Robbie (PAN AM), Bella Heathcote (DARK SHADOWS) and Lily James (WRATH OF THE TITANS). GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY---Zoe Saldana (STAR TREK) is in negotiations to play Gamora. THE TOWN THAT DREADED SUNDOWN---Addison Tomlinson (CALIFORNICATION) has joined the cast of the remake of the 1976 horror movie that starred Ben Johnson, Andrew Prine and Dawn Wells. ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT---the Netflix premiere of 15 episodes is on May 26. USA NETWORK---premier dates are: BURN NOTICE and GRACELAND on June 6, ROYAL PAINS and NECESSARY ROUGHNESS on June 12, COVERT AFFAIRS and SUITS on July 16. QUARRY---new Cinemax series underway based on the novels by Max Allan Collins (ROAD TO PERDITION) about a disillusioned Marine sniper who returns from the Vietnam War and becomes a contract killer. THIS IS WHERE I LEAVE YOU---Shawn Levy comedy movie based on the novel with Tina Fey, Jason Bateman, Timothy Olyphant, Abigail Spencer and Jane Fonda starring. THE RAVEN---Liam Hemsworth (THE HUNGER GAMES) is talks to star in this sci fi conspiracy movie about a man who is the target of assassination after he discovers a power that could change society. THE AGE OF MIRACLES---movie underway based on the novel about the Earth facing disaster because of a slowing orbit as seen through the eyes of a young girl. THE WALKING DEAD---Robert Kirkman comments on next season. "Moving into next season, we’re going to see a very different Rick, but one of his main goals is to manage this situation with Carl and see if he can bring him back from this darkness that’s crept into him. Whether or not he’s able to do that, we’ll have to see. But this is a big change in the character of Carl, but it’s something that’s going to be weighing heavily on Rick next season." He said about the Governor, "That’s certainly not the last that we’ll see of him. When we see him again and where we see him again, that’s the big question. It’s not going to be like it was in Season 3; it’s not going to be Rick and the Governor on a collision course with a conflict between them. He’ll be used in very different ways next season." Kirkman said Season 4 will bring changes, "I’ll say that there are a lot of familiar elements that are remaining. Michonne is still around, Rick and his group are still in the prison, the Governor’s still out there… so there are a lot of things that are carrying over from Season 3 to Season 4, but I can’t stress how different things are going to be. There are going to be some radical changes to those elements that are going to bring in a lot of new storytelling. While [Season 4] does seem somewhat familiar, it’s going to be vastly different from Season 3." Also, Chad L. Coleman (Tyreese), Sonequa Martin-Green (Sasha) and Emily Kinney (Beth) have been promoted to regular cast members.
