What could possibly make one of the most anticipated prequels of all time even MORE splendiferous?!

STEPHEN F*CKING COLBERT!!!

Yep, Stephen Colbert has hinted that he MAY appear in Peter Jackson's forthcoming trilogy based on the iconic novel by J.R.R. Tolkien!

While he won't be in the first film, The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey (2012), he might appear in either Desolation of Smaug (2013) or There and Back Again (2014)!

During a recent interview, Stephen revealed:

When you wrote and directed the two highest grossing films ever made, it's a safe bet your studio will greenlight a sequel or three!!

Titanic wrapped up neatly after Rose finally allowed her heart to go on, so we understand why James Cameron is so focused on sequels for Avatar!

The mastermind behind the brilliant movie recently revealed his intentions to make three more film on Pandora, including one prequel.

As the first three films will tell an entire story, he is forced to go a new direction for Avatar 4.

James admitted:

With both a Broadway musical and a sequel in the works, Magic Mike isn’t going ANYWHERE anytime soon!

While we already know Channing Tatum and Matthew McConaughey are down for stripping on the silver screen for a second time, Tatum revealed some NEW deets for the film’s plans!

Being the AH-Mazing tease that he is, Channing revealed:

"We really want to [make it].”

And???

Supposedly, Mr. Tatum is down for directing

WOW!

We had been so blown away by James Franco and Mila Kunis in the preview for Oz: The Great and Powerful that we had totally FORGOTTEN that there is ANOTHER Wizard spin-off in the works and on its way!

But after this, it won't be slipping our mind anytime soon!

Ch-ch-check out the just-released teaser trailer for the upcoming Dorothy of Oz, which features the voice of Lea Michele in the title role as she returns to the magical land to help old and new friends, two of whom voiced by Megan Hilty and Kelsey Grammer (above)!

Looks like it has some REALLY cool imagery…that will be even BETTER in 3D!

Of course, the minute a Princess Lea-performed song began playing over the footage, we were already SOLD!

So this one is DEFINITELY not to be missed!

What do U think? Do U want to see Dorothy of Oz?

Wow! They really were casting up until the last minute, weren't they?!

Keira Knightley and Kevin Costner were only just added to the Kenneth Branagh-directed Jack Ryan project alongside new lead Chris Pine earlier in the month, yet all three gents are apparently well at work on the prequel for the Tom Clancy hero!

Ch-ch-check out shots of the actors portraying the young, motorcycle-riding spy and his mentor (above)!

Both so badass - AND SEXY!

Ha!

Keira is seriously one lucky lady to have them both saving her for imminent danger!

We'll be curious to see what other action-hijinks will be going down on this set!

Keira Knightley has played a wide variety of roles in her short career: decoy, bounty hunter, damsel, pirate.

In her newest film Can A Song Save Your Life?, the Love Actually star plays a modern troubadour!

But it sounds like her next role may be the hardest yet- playing love interest to Chris Pine.

Now, now. Be brave, Keira. Close your eyes and think of England. LOLz.

Srsly, we are totally jealous! Oh, except for all the spy stuff — that sounds exhausting!

Keira has been cast in

WOO HOO!!!

We hope 30 Rock star Judah Friedlander is telling the truth!

The actor and comedian played Molly Shannon's cheating husband in Wet Hot American Summer and is apparently coming back for the prequel that we've been crossing our fingers for since the possibility was suggested.

During a recent Q&A interview, Friedlander said:
