Sending text messages to Radar editor Dylan Howard, Charlie Sheen has broken his silence just as he “voluntarily” heads into drug rehab. And for a guy that had to have emergency hospitalization after days of non-stop cocaine use, Charlie’s certainly putting on a sunny face.

So you might have heard director Gregg Araki’s latest, Kaboom , is somewhat… forward with its sexuality. This isn’t exactly a new development for the indie bad boy, who has long approached his films’ subject matter — from The Living End to The Doom Generation to Mysterious Skin — with a frankness as tender as it can be shocking. Movieline’s Alonso Duralde caught up with Araki at Sundance, where the filmmaker and his cast (including, pictured from right to left, Juno Temple, Thomas Dekker, Chris Zylka and Haley Bennett) elaborated on the process of exploring and nailing down Kaboom ‘s funny, trippy and, yes, horny dynamics.

There’s something hilarious about eavesdropping on an argument between strangers, but if you learn enough about the people involved, you stop laughing and maybe start feeling sorry for those people. And that’s the arc of Shut Up Little Man! An Audio Misadventure , which explores the 1990s underground comedy phenomenon and explores the all-too-human side of it.

Now that Comcast (or Kabletown) has officially taken over NBC from General Electric, they have a big problem on their hands in the form of returning NBC to its past glory. The Movieline solution: Fun NBC -themed promos! Seriously, where have these been? Specifically, just recreate this “The Stars are Back on NBC ” promo featuring Michael Richards sliding down an animated staircase into the waiting arms of a signing Crystal Bernard from Wings . Also, Joey Lawrence says, “Whoa,” Tom Brokaw and Katie Couric make out, and John Larroquette picks a star out of his eyeball. Problem solved! And if it doesn’t work, just bring back Seinfeld .

‘If I do go into something else, it will be because it is good,’ the action hero tells MTV News. By Kara Warner Jason Statham Photo: MTV News Those familiar with the work of Jason Statham know that he doesn’t really do “fluffy” films or romantic comedies. He is a man of action and general butt-kicking/badass-ery: see “The Transporter,” “The Bank Job,” “Crank” and “The Expendables,” to name a few. Statham’s new film, “The Mechanic,” in which he plays a trained assassin who takes the son of his former mentor (Ben Foster) under his wing, is no different. There is a lot of action and a lot of ass-kicking, just the way his fans like it. When MTV News caught up with Statham, we asked him if he felt at all typecast, and whether he’d take on a nice-guy role in a romantic comedy someday. “You know, it’s tough, because people will always keep saying to me, ‘Do you only see yourself doing action movies?’ and, I don’t know,” Statham said. “It’s very difficult because one day I might be asked to do something that is of quality in a different genre, but the films that come from different genres aren’t that great,” he argued. “So I end up not doing them because once you make a mistake in that area, you can’t go back. So, if I do go into something else, it will be because it is good.” But Foster told us his co-star doesn’t just play a tough guy onscreen, but rather makes each performance unique by infusing them with “vulnerability.” “If you’re a tough guy, and Jason is, the hardest part is showing vulnerability,” Foster explained. “And it’s working in ‘The Bank Job’ and in ‘The Mechanic’ here, and other films. He brings a lot of quiet heart to it. And it’s difficult stuff because movie viewers aren’t looking for that necessarily,” he said. “But Jason is always being a humanity to [something] behind the bullets.” Are you fan of Jason Statham’s action roles?

The definition of irony for Wednesday, Jan. 26: The idea of Willow Smith singing “It’s a Hard Knock Life” on the big screen. What was rumored last week has now become more official: Jay-Z has teamed with Overbrook Entertainment (read: Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith) for a joint venture that will develop television and film properties. First up: An Annie remake at Sony Entertainment with Smith’s daughter Willow in the lead role. “The time is right to bring back Annie to the big screen,” said Columbia Pictures President Doug Belgrad in a statement. “Of course, we’re true believers in Willow’s talent and believe she will be perfect in this role.” Maybe, but I imagine it will be hard for her to whip that Annie-approved perm .
