News You Already Know

* Director Zack Snyder (300) has approached three more actors for his movie adaptation of "The Watchmen". Ain't it Cool News is reporting that Keanu Reeves has been offered the role of Dr.Manhatten. Patrick Wilson has been given the chance to suit up as Nite Owl. Finally it's been reported that Jude Law was offered the role of Ozymandias. I think Keanu is a long shot at actually signing on for the film but stranger things have happened. Still no confirmation on Gerald Butler as The Comedian.

* Marvel Comics has announced that their newly resurrected Blade ongoing series will be canceled with issue 12.

* Robert Rodriguez (From Dusk til Dawn) has signed on to direct a remake of the cult classic Barbarella. Now we sit and wait for see who gets the role, Rosario Dawson or Rose McGowan.

* A teaser trailer for The Dark Knight is tentatively scheduled for a December.

* Activision announced 7 new songs that will be featured in the 80's version of Guitar Hero.
