A few days before "Men in Black 3" opens in theaters across the U.S., its cast members and director took some time to discuss the big challenge of applying time travel as the major plot in the sci-fi movie. Chatting with MTV News, they admitted that applying "time travel" element in a movie was really tricky.

Will Smith said during the New York premiere of the movie, "You cannot put your head around time travel." He explained the difficulties of using the plot in the threequel, "We would sit around for hours and hours trying to figure out what happens if you go back into the past and you do something [differently]."

Before unveiling the promo materials, Summit Entertainment invited the "Twilight Saga" fans to a scavenger hunt game. They were tasked to unscramble all the 22 names of the new coven members.

Katy Perry unveils a first clip for her upcoming 3D concert movie, "Katy Perry: Part of Me", via Yahoo! Movies.

After securing a new director, "The Hunger Games" sequel now gets a new tweaked title. Instead of just calling it "Catching Fire" like the title of Suzanne Collins' novel, Lionsgate Films officially names the anticipated movie "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire".

Two Marvel Studios' upcoming big movies, "Thor 2" and "Iron Man 3", have each added new villainous character. The first sequel to the God of Thunder movie, in particular, will not only have Tom Hiddleston's Loki as its villain, but also another antagonistic character whom Mads Mikkelsen is said to be close to star as.

Mikkelsen's bad guy role is still kept under tight wraps. Meanwhile, Variety reported that Hiddleston will still have a big part as the major supervillain in the second "Thor" film, which is due to open in the United States on November 15, 2013.

Efron looked sleek in Dolce&Gabbana three-piece black suit completed with a bowtie. While attending a press call before the premiere, the actor gushed that he's very honored to star opposite Oscar winner Kidman in the movie.

Summer movie lineup in 2012 has lost one of its most anticipated titles. It has been reported that Paramount Pictures has decided to push back the release date for "G.I. Joe: Retaliation" from June 29 this year to March 29, 2013.

According to Deadline, the sudden decision was made in order to give the action movie a 3D treatment. "We're going to do a conscientious 3D job because we've seen how it can better box office internationally," explained the studio exec to the film site. "Jim Cameron did all of 'Titanic' 3D in post - and look how well that movie turned out."

"On the Road" has been premiered at the 65th annual Cannes Film Festival as one of the most anticipated movies.

Stewart became the belle of the ball with her elegant look in a Balenciaga slit-to-the-thigh patterned dress designed by Nicolas Ghesquiere that she paired with black peep-toe pumps. Letting loose her long brown hair, the "Twilight Saga" actress finished off her classy look with simple jewelry.

The "Transformers: Dark of the Moon" extra who was seriously injured in the head during a stunt-gone-wrong has settled her lawsuit with $18.5 million. Paramount and DreamWorks that produced the blockbuster hit have agreed in a settlement signed by a judge that they will pay Gabriella Cedillo the aforementioned sum.

Cedillo's lawyer revealed that the movie studios only covered her medical expenses at Loyola University Medical Center which totaled in 350,000 in 2010. But, they "did everything they could to avoid payment. Gabriela was forced onto Public Aid to pay for her medical bills."

While it was previously rumored that Mila Kunis was eyed to play Jackie Kennedy in "The Butler", it is now reported that Minka Kelly is courted to tackle the part.

The couple meets Riley's Sal Paradise who decides to have a road trip soon after the death of his father.
