That didn't take long!

FX promised Charlie Sheen and the rest of the people involved with Anger Management that if the sitcom's ratings continued to flourish, they'd all be rewarded with a 90-episode order.

That order is right around the corner if you ask Lionsgate CEO Jon Feltheimer, who shared this week:

It's Miranda's housekeeper from Sex and the City! LOLz!

Lionsgate just announced that Magda Lynn Cohen has been cast as Mags, Finnick Odair's District 4 buddy in the second Hunger Games flick!

Original reports suggested the role of the 80-year-old character had been given to Oscar winning actress, Melissa Leo. Obvi, the studio noticed that — despite the fact that she is a phenomenal actress — Leo WAY too young to play someone in her 80s!

Including Lynn, only

It's time to reap a new director!

Now that Lionsgate is almost done casting Hunger Games: Catching Fire, the studio is making plans for the third film in the franchise. Their first order of business: find a new director.

You see, production for Mockingjay Part 1 and Part 2 is moving waaay too fast for Catching Fire's director Francis Lawrence to make the sequel and have time to prep the next movies. So, the book's author Suzanne Collins and the rest of the studio heads are currently vetting the right directors for the next two films.

Of course, the films

Look at all those guns! Firearms AND biceps!

Hopefully all of you are skimming this article from San Diego's Comic-Con!!

If so, RUN to the Expendables 2 panel immediately where Lionsgate is handing out signed collectors' editions posters (above) to 250 of their closest friends!!

If not, we feel your pain. The grindhouse style artwork on these one-sheets is pretty rad!

Regardless, we ALL get to watch Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jason Statham, Sylvester Stallone, Bruce Willis, and our other favorite shirtless, gun-toting movie stars of yesteryear team up for one final action-extravaganza!!

Unless this flick makes money — in which case, they'll probably all be back for Expendables 3!!

It's TWINS!

Mockingjay, the third book in Suzanne Collins’ Hunger Games trilogy, will be made into TWO separate movies!!

Lionsgate announced release dates for both films just this afternoon: The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 will drop in November 21, 2014 — aaaaaand The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2 364 days later!

We are SOOO excited to have a whole extra 80 to 150 minutes with Katniss and the gang whoever else is alive at the end!!

The only downside is we have to wait a WHOLE YEAR between Catching Fire and the two Mockingjay movies.

Oh well! At least we know the Hunger Games hype will be around for three more years!

Tributes, REJOICE!!!!
