See Photos From The Movie "No matter how long I was on the set, I never got used to seeing either of [the creatures]," she says. "When the Predator would walk around the corner, even on like the last day of shooting, you're just like, 'Ew!' Then the Alien is just gross. There's something in a human being that looks at an Alien and it's like a cockroach, y'know? You can never feel nurturing towards a cockroach." Alien Vs. Predator opens in theaters today. DANNY DECKCHAIR The comedy Danny Deckchair stars Rhys Ifans, best remembered as Hugh Grant's over-the-top roommate in Notting Hill. In this romantic comedy he plays Danny, an Australian concrete worker who's getting ready for a vacation with his girlfriend. When work commitments force her to cancel the trip, Danny decides to tie a bunch of helium balloons to a folding chair - and finds himself floating away into a new life. "It's all very dangerous, cause you can't steer a deck chair," Ifans tells VH1 about his scenes aloft. "So most of it was done on cranes and stuff, but it was still quite hairy. I was sort of hanging 150 feet above the ground in a deck chair. Quite nice though. You get left alone up there, and it's very quiet, you know? They can't do your makeup or fiddle with your clothes when you're hanging around up there. So it was nice." Danny Deckchairopens today in New York and Los Angeles. THE PRINCESS DIARIES 2: ROYAL ENGAGEMENT The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement stars Anne Hathaway, who reprises her role from the 2001 hit film that raked in more than $108 million.

"At first she thinks that she is okay with it, but then she has to come to terms with what that means. She has to find out how far she's willing to bend before she can't look at herself in the mirror anymore. In that struggle and self reflection, she gains tremendous amounts of self-esteem and confidence." The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement also marks the return of Julie Andrews, Hector Elizondo and Heather Matarazzo, and was once again directed by Garry Marshall. It's in theaters everywhere now.
