Man of Steel debuts in theaters nationwide today which means people everywhere will be introduced to a brand new Superman and women (and men) everywhere will discover just how much they want to sleep with Henry Cavill. I’m not joking.
If the world were coming to an end, we can think of worse company than James Franco, Seth Rogen, Jay Baruchel, Danny McBride, Craig Robinson and Jonah Hill — so we really love the premise of this week’s new release, This Is the End. Then we thought about what other famous folk would be best equipped to head into a bunker with us, not to mention rebuild our world, post-apocalypse…
Of course, you probably want a good action hero with you, so we’re definitely placing bets on Dwayne Johnson. But how about the people we want to entertain us and our alien invaders? Shouldn’t someone teach us how to forage and hunt for food? And we’ll need to repopulate this place with some beautiful people. Plus there are the celebs who, like cockroaches will survive whether we need them or not. Check out the gallery above for reasons we think celebrities like Rebel Wilson, Shailene Woodley and Quvenzhane Wallis will be around even after “The End.”

On June 12, 1998, Can’t Hardly Wait premiered in theaters. Though it was hardly a runaway hit at the box office, it helped launch the careers of many stars and kicked off several years of highly popular teen films that would be responsible for shaping our high school (and college) years. The film was particularly known for its ensemble cast that was filled with tons of “before they were famous” stars including Jason Segel (Watermelon Guy), Sean Patrick Thomas (Jock Friend) and Ethan Embry (Preston Meyers), who was emerging from a world of child acting into adulthood. Fifteen years later, Embry took the time out of filming a werewolf thriller, Late Phases, to chat with VH1 Celebrity about the vibe on set, his “altered” state and what the movie was actually about.
Superheroes kick all kinds of ass, but behind every caped crusader is a brainy, busty hottie holding him down (and she’s usually a reporter — what’s that all about?). With Lois Lane (Amy Adams) poised to stop nerdboy hearts when Man of Steel debuts this weekend, let’s look at our 10 favorite superhero GF’s of all time!
Let’s be honest, we’ll go see anything Taylor Kitsch is in. But throw in a little Peter Skarsgard, and suddenly a total bomb like Battlefield becomes Oscar-caliber (imagine how two sexed-up stars can upgrade actual Oscar-caliber flicks like Brokeback Mountain and Vicky Christy Barcelona). For your eye candy viewing pleasure, check out our favorite flicks starring a pair of same-sex hotties!
We’ve noticed something special about Rose Byrne. Well, actually Hollywood noticed it first and we’re just observing it now: The Aussie beauty is really good at playing poised, brainy ladies. And though the actress told VH1 News that “It’d be easier to learn Chinese” than to do the kind of tech stuff her Google exec character does in The Internship (out this week), we really believe her in the role. Look back at some of her other smart characters in the gallery below, but then check out a clip of something completely different after the jump.
Earlier this week, we discovered that Jaden Smith is a “multidimensional mathematician.” Well, yesterday we learned that his résumé should also include “aspiring superhero,” as he was spotted wearing an Iron Man costume (or were they pajamas?) out to lunch with a member of the Kardashian clan.
There comes a time in every actors life when they’re faced with going Full Monty for a flick. And if it’s an important indie — why the hell not? From Michael Fassbender to Angelina Jolie, we salute these sexy superstars for baring serious vaj and Johnson for the sake of art!
Is Will Smith about to enter Tom Cruise territory? It certainly feels that way after reading this pretty bonkers New York interview with Will and his son, Jaden, conducted during a publicity tour for the pair’s upcoming sci-fi film, After Earth. The interview, while never directly touching on Smith’s alleged involvement with the Church of Scientology, does paint quite an interesting picture of one of the world’s biggest box office stars, who seems to be borderline obsessed with something he refers to as “The Patterns” and miles away from Fresh Prince territory.
You may be ready to check out Fast & Furious 6 in theaters, but are you prepared to correctly identify who every character is, how everyone knows each other and who’s dated (or murdered) whom? Well, buckle up. VH1 Celebrity created a character map of all the major characters from all seven films. (Yes, we included the still unfilmed Fast Seven…because we love you.) Warning: Fast & Furious 6 Spoilers. [Click for Hi-Res]
