Sebastian Stan Steps Up as Captain America’s Sidekick and Hints at Bucky’s Future

After auditioning “five or six times” for the role of Steve Rogers, a/k/a Captain America, 27 year-old Sebastian Stan didn’t get the gig. But he did get a call to discuss a different iconic character in the WWII -set Marvel comics blockbuster: James “Bucky” Barnes, Cap’s best friend, sidekick, and, in Joe Johnston ‘s big screen adaptation (in theaters Friday), a soldier who could potentially undergo big changes in future Captain America sequels.

A Party Down Movie?

The Veronica Mars feature may have never gotten off the ground but Lizzy Caplan is hoping that she and the Party Down crew can continue their catering careers for the big screen (even if that means that they’ll literally have to cater their own movie). “We want it so bad,” she told Hitfix last week about the latest Rob Thomas series to be killed before its time . “We could do it for no money, no time. We would do it for free. I just don’t know if we’re legally allowed to do it.” Chris Albrecht, do you have a problem with that? [ Hitfix ]

Judd Apatow and Pee-wee Herman Team Up For Film About Stunted Adolescence

Exhibit A in the “Judd Apatow is the comedy version of Quentin Tarantino” argument: The uber-producer is helping Paul Reubens dust off his Pee-wee Herman costume for yet another big screen outing. Said Apatow: “Let’s face it, the world needs more Pee-wee Herman.” And if that sounds familiar, that’s probably because it is a variation on what Tarantino was saying about Pam Grier sometime before Jackie Brown came out. So… what will Pee-wee’s latest big adventure be like?
