Sure Shots: Scarlett Johansson; Bubblegum Crisis; Miley Cyrus



* Scarlett Johansson, the perfect embodiment of female sexuality? I can dig it. The sultry actress is attached to star in Jonathan Glazer's(Sexy Beast) Under the Skin, about an alien living here on earth who uses her irresistable sex appeal to lure in her prey. I guess that would be poor schmucks like me. Her character is described as the "perfect aesthetic form of a mesmerizing woman". Any objectors?

* A live-action Bubblegum Crisis? Count me in. Anthony La Molinara has signed on to bring the adventures of Sylia Stingray and the rest of the Knight Sabres to the big screen in a multi-national joint production, slated to begin filming in May of next year in 3D. Bubblegum Crisis features an all-female team of high powered mercenaries who defend Mega Tokyo against the advances of evil corporation, Genome.

* Miley Cyrus: Private Dick.  The popular singer and actress will be starring in So Undercover, a comedy from director Tom Vaughn(What Happens in Vegas). She'll be starring as a detective hired by the FBI to go undercover at a college sorority. This sounds an awful lot like a female version of the dreadful Nick Cannon flick, Underclassman.
