A judge sentenced the filmmaker to four months in federal prison yesterday, despite his lawyer’s claims that he’s too “depressed” for lockup. “He (McTiernan) will certainly not be the only depressed man in custody,” U.S. District Judge Dale S. Fischer said yesterday. “He has shown no remorse, just excuses.”
  • Warner Brothers has applied for permits to shoot portions of Batman sequel The Dark Knight in Hong Kong. According to Variety, “the caped crusader will leave Gotham for the first time in the history of the film franchise to fight evil in another city — or cities — although it’s unclear whether Hong Kong will be called Hong Kong or a fictional metropolis.”
  • Jessica Biel may be the next Wonder Woman. The Seventh Heaven veteran is allegedly about to be the first actor cast in George Miller’s Justice League movie.
