News You Already Know

Going to try to make an effort to bring back "News You Already Know" on a more weekly basis. With everything else going on it's tough to find time. So let's give it a shot.

* "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" is set to go berserker on May 1st. There's yet another trailer that you can see at Newsarama.com. Click HERE to check it out and have a box of tissues close.

* Warner Brothers is planning a live action "Green Lantern" and "Jonah Hex" film for 2010. As of now there's been no other major news. We have learned that both Emile Hirsch and Ryan Gosling have turned down the offer to suit up for the CORPS. Warner Brothers should keep in mind that I am still available.

* "HEROES" has received a fourth season from NBC. Although the ratings are down almost 30% it should be noted that it is still NBC's second highest rated show next to "The Office". The fourth season order was for 18 - 20 episodes. Some are suggesting that NBC will announce an end date for the show like "LOST" and "Battlestar Galactica" have done in the past.

* April 28th Disney will be releasing "X-Men: The Animated Series" on DVD. This is the series from the 90's that fans have been waiting for. Now we just need the Adam West Batman series.

* Transformers 2 also has a new teaser trailer. Much better than the first. Check it out HERE.
