Sure Shots: Bond 23; Arthur & Lancelot;Kristen Stewart drops out of K-11





* Contrary to reports from about a week ago, Rhys Ifans(The Amazing Spider-Man) is denying that he'll be in Bond 23. He told Comingsoon.net, "I don't know anything about that. I think Daniel Craig is the best Bond that ever was. He's unbelievable, he's fantastic, and if he wants me to kiss him again hard on the lips, I'm available. But I dunno. If the Bond people watch this (interview), give me a f*cking job, man!"

Warner Brothers is in love with David Dobkin's script for Arthur & Lancelot, a medieval tale of the story between the two Knights of the Round Table. So much so that they paid a truckload for it last month, and now they've already plotted a March 15th 2013 release date. Need more proof of how much WB is feelin' this project? They've canned both Bryan Singer and Guy Ritchie's similarly themed flicks. D'oh. [Deadline]


* I wonder if she did it by text? Kristen Stewart has dropped out of one of the most promising films she had in the works, the controversial prison drama, K-11. Why's this so strange? Well, the movie is directed by her mom, Jules Stewart. Why's the film so controversial? It deals with two transgenders in the homosexual wing of an LA prison. One was meant to be played by Stewart, the other by Nikki Reed(another Twilight alum). Both have now dropped out. The awesome bit about that is the person replacing Stewart is her big brother, Cameron. Not kidding. Portia Doubleday(Youth in Revolt) will take over Reed's role. Goran Visnjic and D.B. Sweeney will co-star. [Variety]
