Movieline is (Still) Hiring!

Heads up, folks: We’re still looking to fill a Night Editor position (12:00 am – 9:00 am EDT shift), and would like to encourage applicants from overseas to apply. Being based in Europe might be the easiest, as the job requires blogging as well as original reporting and interviews — all of which are harder to do Stateside in the dead of night. We could use a New York-based intern as well. Inquire within!

Laughin’ with Lando

According to horrifying new reports, Lucasfilm Animation is teaming with Seth Green and Matthew Senreich (of Robot Chicken ) for a Star Wars comedy series . Thrilling, of course. Hopefully the Luke/Leia incest will be reimagined as a Marx brothers mistaken identity routine, and Darth Vader will be voiced by a slightly more somber Gilbert Gottfried. Then again, the Star Wars franchise is no stranger to terrible TV comedy … [ THR ]

5 Possible Next Projects For Charlie Sheen If He Ditches Men

The news shook Hollywood to its very core: Charlie Sheen, the most handsomely remunerated mumbler in television history, has been telling “friends” (you know, the kind who respond to this kind of intimate soul-baring with an immediate call to People ) that this season of Two and a Half Men might be his last, rumblings that certainly are not just a carefully choreographed tactic for any upcoming contract renewal negotiations . But if he is is, in fact, ready to step away from Men if they’re not willing to make him a million-and-a-half-per-episode player, what’s next for the Ma-sheen? Movieline is more than happy to throw out some suggestions for Sheen’s potential new projects.

Modern Family Product Placement Mystery Solved?

Last night’s episode of Modern Family followed Claire Dunphy (Julie Bowen) as she contrived a way to purchase an iPad for her husband, gadget-loving Phil (Ty Burrell). Product placement emerges as a lame supporting player in many primetime offerings, but the front-and-center shilling felt particularly acute last night. While Apple and ABC seem to deny a deal taking place , a new press release from Apple ensures that the two companies had at least been in iPad-related discussions recently (in addition to an ABC player for the iPad that’s advertised on ABC. com using…a picture of Phil cradling the product):

Two and a Half Men Minus Charlie Sheen?

People alleges that Charlie Sheen is telling friends that he’s done with Two and a Half Men …friends who just happened to leak that stance to a major magazine on the eve of contract negotiations between Sheen and Warner Bros. TMZ says Sheen is angling for $1.5 million an episode as opposed to WB’ s $1 million offer. You gotta pay those lawyers somehow! [ People , TMZ ]

Noah Baumbach and Ben Stiller Team Up to Raise Mr. Popper’s Penguins

If you didn’t get your fill of hipster kid-lit adaptations with Wes Anderson’s Fantastic Mr. Fox or Spike Jonze’s Where the Wild Things Are , you’ll be happy to know that this trend has one more trick up its sleeve. According to Variety , Ben Stiller is set to reteam with his Greenberg director Noah Baumbach (who also cowrote Mr. Fox with Wes Anderson) on a film version of the 1938 classic children’s book Mr. Popper’s Penguins, written by Richard and Florence Atwater’s Mr. Popper’s Penguins .

What’s On: Marriage Ref Welcomes Famed Relationship Guru Sheryl Crow

The Marriage Ref continues its reign of Tom Papa-emceed insanity as Jimmy Fallon, Kirstie Alley, and Sheryl Crow volunteer wisdom from their years of perfect relationships. I believe all of Sheryl’s critiques should reference her song lyrics to as verbatim an extent as possible. “Billy likes to peel the labels of his his bottles of Bud? Divorce, girl!” and “Are you strong enough to be that harpy’s man?” should be uttered.
