Henry Cavill Open To Being Not Only Superman But James Bond

Henry Cavill Asks Kids: Batman or Superman? // Omaze

Would you be open to seeing Superman be the next James Bond? In the last time that the studio had to replace the British spy following the departure of Pierce Brosnan, the final list came down to three names Daniel Craig, Sam Worthington and Henry Cavill.

The role was eventually won by Craig. Cavill apparently lost out due to his young age at the time reportedly suggested as being the main reason he didnt get the gig. Now though, he is the perfect age and with talk that Craig may leave the role, could he be a potential candidate again? The actor appeared on BBCs The Graham Norton Show (via ET this weekend, he was asked if he would consider taking over the iconic role should his schedule allow it. He responded:

Im very busy with the Superman stuff, but if there were any windows and they wanted me to do that kind of role, it would be great. I would love to do it.

Cavill certainly has some major competition to fend off if hes really in for the win; with Tom Hiddleston as the current bookmakers frontrunner to succeed Craig. Hiddleston modestly responded to the news that, though it would be an extraordinary opportunity, he doesnt take the rumours too seriously; treating them more as an inevitable by-product of his role on BBCs The Night Manager.

The likes of Hiddleston, Luke Evans, Tom Hardy and Idris Elba have all been mentioned as potential candidates for the part. The Bond producers however famously have no issues going back to people who missed out the first time on playing Bond such as they did with Moore and Brosnan.

In Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice, Gotham Citys own formidable, forceful vigilante, fearing the actions of a G*d-like Super Hero left unchecked, takes on Metropoliss most revered, modern-day savior, while the world wrestles with what sort of hero it really needs. And with Batman and Superman at war with one another, a new threat quickly arises, putting mankind in greater danger than its ever known before.

Directed by Zack Snyder and written by Chris Terrio from a screenplay by David S. Goyer, Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice stars Henry Cavill in the role of Clark Kent/Superman and Ben Affleck as Bruce Wayne/Batman. The film also stars Gal Gadot as Diana Prince/Wonder Woman, with Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne and Diane Lane returning from Man of Steel, joined by Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor, Jeremy Irons as Alfred, and Holly Hunter in a role newly created for the film. Jason Momoa will also be making an appearance as Aquaman.

Canada"s Sikh defence minister Harjit Sajjan heckled with "racist" remarks by opposition MP

A Bird Landed on Bernie Sanders’ Lectern and Everyone Lost Their Minds

Canada"s first Sikh defence minister Harjit Sajjan was heckled in Parliament by an opposition member MP in an act that has been called "racist". Conservative MP Jason Kenney sparked controversy by shouting that MPs needed an "English-to-English" translation to understand Sajjan.

The incident took place on 1 February as Canadian ministers debated the country"s military action against Islamic State (Isis). Following the period of question and answers, Liberal MP Kevin Lamoureux rose on a point of order about Kenney"s "inappropriate comment", urging for him to consider apologising to the newly-appointed defence minister.

MP Lamoureux said: "The minister of defence was providing an answer, which was quite legible, individuals heard the question, and yet the member from Calgary Midnapore [Kenney] stated from across the seat that we need to have "English-to-English translation". I"m wondering if the member would do the proper thing and apologise or, at the very least, explain his comments?"

However, MP Kenney refused to admit that he was in the wrong and said he would not apologise for what he believed was a reasonable comment. Kenny said: "The minister"s answers were totally incoherent so there"s nothing to apologise for."

Other MPs were quick to jump to the aid of defence minister Sajjan, condemning MP Kenney"s remarks. Indian-origin MP Ruby Sahota tweeted: "Shame on @jkenny for his racist remarks during today"s qp and refusal to apologise is unacceptable."

Another Indian-origin MP, MP Raj Grewal, echoed Sahota"s views that the incident was "unacceptable" and called on MP Kenny to apologise. Kenney responded to the tweets by saying that he had "huge respect" for defence minister Sajjan but continued to refuse to apologise.

In a series of tweets, Kenney said: "Unfortunately I find his [Sajjan"s] answers on ending combat against Isis to be at best unpersuasive and, at worst, incoherent. That"s the point I tried to make. Sorry if it was misconstrued in any way. He"s a fine, intelligent man but, [in my honest opinion], his position is wrong."

Defence minister Sajjan was appointed as Canada"s defence minister in November 2015 when Prime Minister Justin Trudeau"s 30-member Liberal cabinet was formed. Having originally been born in India, he moved to Canada with his family when he was five years old and has lived in the country ever since. He has served as a combat veteran and had deployments in Bosnia, Afghanistan and Kandahar.

Freddy got Fingered: Mann vergisst VHS 14 Jahre und wird verhaftet

The Very Best of Freddy Got Fingered

Es gibt schlechte Filme und es gibt "Freddy got fingered", eine Komdie aus dem Jahr 2001 von und mit Comedian Tom Green. Der Film erhielt fnf Goldene Himbeeren und vernichtende Kritiken. Doch das hielt James Meyers, Musiker und Familienvater aus dem Stdtchen Concord in North Carolina, nicht davon ab, den Film 2002 auf Video auszuleihen.

Doch offenbar verga er nicht nur den Film (mit einem Rotten-Tomatoe-Score von elf Prozent), sondern auch die geliehene VHS-Kassette. Das sollte der 37-Jhrige jedoch 14 Jahre spter bereuen.

"Was ich euch erzhlen will, kann man sich nicht ausdenken", beginnt er seine Geschichte in einem Video. Meyers war demnach mit seiner Tochter im Auto unterwegs, er wollte sie bei der Schule absetzen. Auf dem Weg dorthin sei er jedoch von einem Polizeiauto wegen eines kaputten Bremslichts gestoppt worden.

Als die Beamten seinen Fhrerschein berprften, sei die Situation dann pltzlich merkwrdig geworden. Sie htten ihn gebeten auszusteigen und ihm schlielich erklrt, gegen ihn liege ein Haftbefehl vor - von 2002. "Offenbar haben Sie einen Film ausgeliehen, "Freddy got fingered", und ihn nie zurckgegeben."

Die Polizisten zeigten sich offenbar kulant und lieen Meyers weiterfahren. Als er sich spter auf der Wache meldete, legten sie ihm dann Handschellen an.

Die Polizei von Concord besttigte den Vorfall sowie die Existenz des Haftbefehls. Er sei am 28. Februar 2002 ausgestellt und von einem Richter unterschrieben worden - die Videothek allerdings existiere schon lange nicht mehr.

Meyers muss nun Ende April vor Gericht erscheinen. In seiner Video-Nachricht zeigte er sich fassungslos. "Dafr gehen unsere Steuergelder drauf." Die Polizei solle sich lieber damit beschftigen, Heroindealer zu verhaften.

Kleiner Trost: Meyers ist nicht der einzige, dem eine vergessene VHS-Kassette zum Verhngnis wurde. 2014 verbrachte eine Amerikanerin aus South Carolina eine Nacht in einer Zelle, weil sie eine besonders kitschige Jennifer-Lopez-Komdie nicht zurckgebracht hatte.

Fassungslos zeigte sich auch Tom Green. Er habe Probleme, die Geschichte zu glauben, twitterte er.

Kansas basketball: Perry Ellis steals the show on senior night

Kansas vs Baylor | 2015-16 Big 12 Men"s Basketball Highlights

Kansas celebrated the careers of four seniors at Allen Fieldhouse in a Saturday match against Iowa State, including forward Perry Ellis.

While the senior night speeches were inspirational, emotional and a little bit humorous, Ellis stole the show with a few jokes about his time with the Jayhawks.

Ellis led Kansas with 22 points and added seven rebounds in his final game in Lawrence, helping the Jayhawks close out the regular season with an 85-78 win over the Cyclones and a 27-4 overall record and 15-3 record in the Big 12.

Batman v Superman trailer: Wonder Woman joins superhero duo

Lego Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice

Bruce Wayne meets Clark Kent. Ha! I love it! So cries Lex Luthor in the latest trailer for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, which premiered on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Wednesday evening, introduced by the films star Ben Affleck.

Luthors handclap of glee delivered by actor (and New Yorker writer) Jesse Eisenberg nicely sums up audience appetite for director Zack Snyders film, despite its release date of 25 March 2016 still being several months away.

Related: Zack Snyder: Batman v Superman "pays homage" to The Dark Knight Returns

Where the first trailer only showed Batman and Superman together in its final shot, this second trailer opens at a glamorous Gotham party as a limo pulls up to deliver businessman Bruce Wayne (Affleck) on to a red carpet where Daily Planet hack Clark Kent (Henry Cavill) turns to ask a bystander: Whos that?

Civil liberties are being trampled on in your city, people living in fear, Kent challenges Wayne once hes identified him.

The Daily Planet criticising those who think they are above the law a little hypocritical wouldnt you say? Wayne counters. Every time a hero saves a cat out of a tree, you write a puff-piece editorial.

At the risk of puff here, fans reacted excitedly on social media to the second clip, especially to the sight of Snyders superhero Trinity completed by actor Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman together for the first time.

Is she with you? asks Superman.

I thought she was with you, Batman bats back.

The clip also shows Jeremy Irons as Alfred, Amy Adams as Lois Lane and Holly Hunter as Senator Finch, a character newly created by Sydner for the film.

The director recently stressed he had wanted to pay homage to Frank Millers graphic novel The Dark Knight Returns, rather than a direct adaptation.

The superhero face-off comes three years after Cavills first outing as Superman in Man of Steel, but now all eyes are on Afflecks debut as an older, grey-haired Batman.

The greatest gladiator match in the history of the world, the trailer trumpets.

Fans and film executives can only hope. Cavill, Affleck and Gadot are already set to team up for two more superhero movies in 2017 and 2019 respectively.
