Academy Award nominated director Lee Daniels is hard at work in New Orleans filming The Butler and the first pic of his main character has been released (above).
Forest Whitaker stars as the titular character based on Eugene Allen, a butler who served eight different presidents and their families living in the White House.
This photo is nice and all, but what we REALLY want to see is what Oprah is going to look like as Whitaker's on-screen wife!
Her return to the big screen alone is enough to make us want to see this drama, but the rest of the talented cast is a plus too!

No, your eyes are not deceiving you!
That IS, in fact, the absolutely DELECTABLE Zac Efron's even MORE delectable booty in soaking wet tightie whiteys as he dances with Nicole Kidman in the frame (above)!
THAT and more is featured in the theatrical trailer for the Lee Daniels-directed The Paperboy, which stars the pair alongside Matthew McConaughey as a pair of reporters and a woman with questionable motives who investigate the events surrounding a murder to exonerate a man on death row, played by John Cusack!
It looks super good!
And NO, we're not just saying that over the man candy factor OR the level of undress our future husband is featured in!
Okay, it helps a little! But can U blame us?!

Robin Williams must love playing dead presidents. Or he's just really good at it.
The actor portrayed Teddy Roosevelt in both Night at the Museum flicks, but now he's taking on Dwight Eisenhower's persona too.
Williams has been cast as the 34th president of the United States in Lee Daniels' The Butler, which is based on the true story of a butler who worked in the White House for three decades' worth of administrations.
He's not the only talented actor

You go Alex Pettyfer!!
The seksi-sexfaced actor has joined the cast of Lee Daniels' latest film, The Butler!
It's really an honor for Alex to be cast, considering Daniels (aka the dude who directed Prescious) can get pretty much whoever he wants to be in his films.
The flick is already overflowing with-top notch award-winning cast members, including: Forest Whitaker, David Oyelowo, Alan Rickman, Jane Fonda, Oprah Winfrey, Minka Kelly, Cuba Gooding Jr, Terrance Howard, and… Lenny Kravitz.
This sounds like the perrrrrfect way for the yummy star to get some respect for his acting, and not his de-lish body!

And you thought Eyes Wide Shut was racy!
Nicole Kidman plays a sultry "trailer-trash vixen" in The Paperboy — the Cannes competition film about a journalist (Matthew McConaughey) as he investigates a death-row man's case with little brother (Zac Efron) in tow.
The Lee Daniels film, which falls under the Southern melodrama Netflix genre category, also focuses in on the lover of the imprisoned man (John Cusack). The lover is — of course — Nicole.
And boy does she get some love in return!! Her man AND Zefron! That lucky trollop!
Not only does

Yep, you read that headline correctly!!
According to co-star Macy Gray, he was half-naked "half the time." But don't let that fool you into thinking he hasn't transcended past that golden gate of serious film!
Quite the contrary!!
The Paperboy is legit. Helmed by Lee Daniels, the Southern melodrama is one of the Cannes competition films this year!!
So what does Zefron do?? He plays
