* He gets the token "shady boyfriend" role in Scream 4 this weekend, but Nico Tortorella is due for a much larger, possibly darker role in a film I'm finding more intriguing by the day. He'll be playing the bad guy in Stephen Sommers' adaptation of Dean Koontz's novel, Odd Thomas. Anton Yelchin stars as the title character, a fry cook with the power to sense evil. Addison Timlin is his best friend, Stormy Llewellyn. Willem Dafoe is the local police chief who shares Thomas' secret.
* Kevin Durand(Lost, Robin Hood) has joined the expanding cast of David Cronenberg's Cosmopolis. According to Variety he'll be playing the lead security guy for Robert Pattinson's character, a billionaire who spends a turbulent day in his stretch limo trying to get across town. Samantha Morton, Juliette Binoche, and Paul Giamatti star in the adaptation of Don DeLillo's novel.
* Jamie Kennedy is probably best recognized as film geek Randy Meeks in the first three Scream movies, but he's established himself as reliable comic relief in other movies. He'll next be popping up in Tyler Perry's non-Madea romantic comedy, Good Deeds. His role is unclear at this point. Perry actually wears guy pants for once as a successful businessman on the verge of marriage who becomes enamored with a downtrodden single mom played by Thandie Newton.
