With its A-list heavy cast and holiday-specific story, the producers and writer of Valentine’s Day are already in talks about a sequel.

According to online reports, a script for a movie called New Year’s Eve is being written by the same screenwriter using a similar ensemble cast.

No word has been given if the film would use the same characters or cast, however, executives feel “the holiday possibilities are endless,” so who knows? Maybe they’ll also give us Labour Day, St. Paddy’s Day, hell, maybe even Canada Day?

Eclipse

* Pictures from the third Twilight film Eclipse have been released. Groundbreaking? No. But, it’s another four months until the movie hits theatres. I takes what I gets.

* Billy Corgan and Jessica Simpson have actually recorded a song together. Can someone call 1997, get Billy Corgan on the phone and ask him what the hell is going on?

* Lily Allen wants to make her performance a memorable one at this year’s Brit Awards. Lily has set her sights on entering the awards show in a plane. A freakin’ plane? 16 year-old Miley Cyrus dancing on a pole during the Teen Choice Awards doesn’t seem that crazy now, does it? Nope, still crazy.

* Score: A Hockey Musical, has already started filming in Toronto and is still adding to its star line up! In addition to Olivia Newton-John and Hawksley Workman, Nelly Furtado is now set to make her acting debut as a crazed hockey fan. If there is a scene with Olivia Newton-John jersey’ing Nelly Furtado, I guarantee it will do an extra $10 million at the box office.
