This is your movie minute for Tuesday July 14th 2015 - so you can be in the know, on
the go!
Wreck it Ralph TWO?!
Yesterday the internet developed a serious rash of headlines touting the Disney animation
sequel, but if one read further it only proved to be wishful thinking from the cast.
John C Reilly merely revealed he's signed for a sequel, which could just be part of
his original contract.
And while Sarah Silverman has been quoted as saying Wreck it Ralph 2 WILL happen, she's
not exactly been known to be the most responsible team player.
Which is why angry Disney execs will likely call Reilly to complain instead - because
nobody's afraid of yelling at a beat-up old Teddy Bear.
Elsewhere in animation, The Angry Birds movie is already soaring high with the news that
its director - Clay Kaytis - has just signed with top talent agency William Morris Endeavor.
A former top gun at Disney Animation, Kaytis has worked on Frozen, Tangled and...Wreck
it Ralph!
Animation is cut-throat these days, and it looks like this film adaptation of the popular
app could be another flying pig launched at the Mouse House...
Finally, with Fox's Empire from Lee Daniels starring Terrence Howard and Oscar Nominee
Taraji P Henson and ABC's Blackish from Lawrence Fishburne, more big screen black talent is
headed to the small screen.
Producer Will Packer, the most prolific and powerful person in black film since Tyler
Perry, has just signed a two year deal with Universal Television.
Packer already has two sitcoms coming up, NBC's People are Talking and ABC's Uncle Buck
- plus History and Lifetime's Roots remake.
Starring Packer favorite Kevin Hart...?
And that's your movie minute!
