What do Leonardo DiCaprio and a 19th Century Russian mystic nicknamed The Black Monk have in common?

If you answered, "they both stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night" we fear for your soul!

Regardless, the Titanic star is set to play Grigori Rasputin in Rasputin, a flick Warner Bros just announced they plan to develop!

The production company commissioned screenwriter — and one time Buffy the Vampire Slayer actor — Jason Hall to pen the historical script!

Jason also wrote American Sniper, which will be directed by Steven Spielberg and star Bradley Cooper, so we think

Harper’s Bazaar Spain is celebrating Cannes jury president Steven Spielberg in their June issue with a fashionable, yet cinematic editorial.

For the La Conexión Spielberg spread, or The Spielberg Connection, the mag featured four actresses in frames from some of the director’s most famous flicks.

The first is Mad Men's Kiernan Shipka dressed in a Marc by Marc Jacobs top, reprising Drew Barrymore’s role as Gertie in E.T. How cute is that shot of her kissing that wrinkly old alien? LOLz!

Malin Akerman is downright terrified as Jaws' first victim in

Talk about a dynamic duo!

The AMAZING Bradley Cooper will be teaming up with iconic director Steven Spielberg on his next project, American Sniper!

The film will focus on the life of Navy SEAL Chris Kyle, who was regarded as one of the best snipers in US military history up until his death earlier this year.

Does this mean we get to see B Coop in uniform?!! …. Sorry, we got distracted there for a second! LOLz!

But seriously, the last two movies directed by Spielberg (War Horse, Lincoln) were both nominated for Best Picture, and with Bradley's performance in Silver Linings Playbook getting him an Oscar nom, they could end up being a match made in heaven!

Honestly, we're a little surprised they haven't teamed up before, but they have to start somewhere, right?

Barack Obama showed off his comedic chops during his speech at Saturday night's White House Correspondents' Dinner, but that was far from all of the HIGHlarity he brought to the event!

In fact, he also proved that he's a pretty impressive actor, as seen during his appearance in a parody video of Steven Spielberg discussing his cinematic 'follow-up' to Lincoln, chronicling our current President's life and starring notorious method-actor Daniel Day-Lewis in the title role!

That's right, folks! Get ready to watch Barack Obama playing Daniel Day-Lewis playing Barack Obama (above)!

And the LOLz didn't stop there!

If there is one person who looked Hollywood dead in the eye without flinching, it was Roger Ebert!

There isn't a man, woman, or child in the film industry who was immune to a thumbs down when it was warranted!!

Roger adored movies, though, and it showed.

His enduring passion and elegant honesty earned him the respect of colleagues and filmmakers alike — even those he occasionally skewered in a bad review!!

And absolutely no one is surprised that Hollywood's biggest names are already showering the man who passed just hours ago with beautiful and well-deserved eulogies.

Jaws mastermind Steven Spielberg offered his heartfelt statement today.

He said

Twelve years after the underwhelming third installment sent Jurassic Park to franchise purgatory, Universal is finally taking the first steps to move ahead with the next sequel!

The production company stiffened the movie boner in our dino-underoos today by announcing the director of Jurassic Park IV:

It's Colin Trevorrow!

OK, don't everyone rush off to IMDB at once!

Colin helmed Safety Not Guaranteed with Aubrey Plaza and it was one of 2012's BEST quirky rom-coms featuring a time-traveling boat!

While the up-and-coming filmmaker's resume isn't as big as, say, JP4 executive producer Steven Spielberg's dong, we're totes confident this project can be
