Oscilloscope Labs today announced its pick-up of Howl , the Sundance-opening (and generally underwhelming ) adaptation of Allen Ginsberg’s famous poem and the First Amendment showdown it spurred. O-Scope plans a September release, likely with an awards campaign in mind for star James Franco. [ Oscilloscope ]

Want an unsettling reminder of just how long ago Iron Man 2 completed principal photography? According to the LAT , it comes in a scene where the deceased DJ A.M. is spotted manning the turntables. “”We tried to make it respectful, and for people who know him, they’ll get a kick out of it and for people who don’t, it will sort of slide by without much notice,” said director Jon Favreau, who dedicated the film to A.M. in the closing credits.

Looks like someone wants a little of Michael Musto’s blind item action . Zap2it reports that on May 5, a celebrity will come out on the cover of People before embarking on a talk show blitz orchestrated by PR man Howard Bragman. That says to me “washed-up second lead on an 80’s sitcom,” or “the one nobody remembers from Nick Lachey’s boyband,” but who are your guesses? [ Zap2It ]

How to Make it in America , the slow-starting HBO series about broke entrepreneurs hoping to catch a break, has been greenlit for a second season. Will series stars Bryan Greenberg and Victor Rasuk rise or fall in the show’s second season? Time will tell, but my guess is they’ll learn that once you “make it” in the world of fashion design, you still have to face down mentors who instruct you to redo everything . [ THR ]

Ask anyone what the difference is between the scandal-plagued tandem Eliot Spitzer and Tiger Woods, and they might think you’re about to deliver a punchline. Ask Oscar-winning filmmaker Alex Gibney, however — whose new documentary about the disgraced New York governor will appear this weekend at the Tribeca Film Festival as a work in progress — and the distinctions are no joke at all.

Unless you’re a giant nerd, you might not have noticed that Leonard Nimoy announced that he’s retiring from acting: “I’ve been doing this professionally for 60 years. I love the idea of going out on a positive note.” The positive note he refers to is J.J. Abrams’s Star Trek , a film series that he’ll have no problem detaching from — after all, one Spock is really enough. But what of Nimoy’s other Abrams enterprise, Fringe ? That’s where things get more complicated.
