But just in case anyone was uncertain, Lionsgate subsidiary Summit Entertainment has officially given "Insurgent" the green light.
Really, though, we had nothing to fret over. The Shailene Woodley-fronted dystopian flick opened to an impressive $4.9 million following Thursday night's screenings. While...

Jerry Ferrara wasn't the only cast member to respond to Mark Wahlberg's claims that "greedy" people were holding up the feature adaptation of "Entourage." On Friday, star Adrian Grenier used his Instagram account to comment on the film's development process.

Certainly, today's music owes a debt to the music Kraftwerk -- and Kraftwerk alone -- was making back in the 1970s and early '80s. It's compulsory...

Whoa, need to be careful about what is said here of these bikini photos Kendall Jenner herself shared on her website. For although Kendall is more mature than most girls twice her age, definitely richer, more professionally involved, driving a Range Rover or Mercedes, depending on the day of the week, jetting around the world, and, as a Kardashian, responsible for pimping the shizz out of shizz for money to feed the family kitty, she is but an innocent teen girl, just trying to make her way quietly...
