Ashton Kutcher to play Steve Jobs in indie film
Ashton Kutcher is set to play Steve Jobs in an upcoming indie pic from Swing Vote director Joshua Michael Stern. The film, titled Jobs, will be written by Matt Whiteley and chronicle the late Jobs’ journey “from wayward hippie to co-founder of Apple,” according to the report. He is said to start filming in May after Two and a Half Men wraps its current season. (It is worth noting, as well, that Kutcher is not yet officially set to return for another season of the CBS hit.) Jobs died in October after a battle with cancer.
'The Hunger Games' stays on top with $61.1 million, holds off 'Wrath' and 'Mirror Mirror'
Not even Olympian gods and a very wicked witch could slow down The Hunger Games‘ exemplary box office run. The smash adaptation, which scored the third best opening of all time last weekend with $152.2 million, dropped by 60 percent in its second frame to $61.1 million. In second place, Greek mythology sequel Wrath of the Titans turned in a weekend that was far from immortal. Warner Brothers and Legendary Pictures’ $150 million sequel grossed just $34.2 million over the Friday-to-Sunday period. Relativity’s $85 million Snow White comedy Mirror Mirror was not the fairest of them all this weekend — the film pulled in a rather weak $19 million, good enough for third place.

2. Wrath of the Titans – $34.2 million

Basketball Wife Divorce Battle
"Basketball Wives" star Kenya Bell spent $110,000 on plastic surgery and surgery-related expenses -- this according to her estranged husband, who's now trying to prove she's completely reckless with her money. It's the latest in the couple's divorce battle -- Kenya filed docs complaining her basketball-playing husband Charlie Bell has been shopping at Louis Vuitton in Paris, while she struggles to provide for their children. Charlie fired back with an explosive response, listing off ALL the ways Kenya has allegedly squandered hundreds of thousands of dollars over the years. According to court documents, Kenya spent:
-- $82,000 on a Corvette, which she drove for 3 weeks -- then resold it for $61,000
-- $12,000 on a motorcycle
-- $20,000 on criminal attorneys
-- $150,000 on "miscellaneous expenses to get even with Mr. Bell"
-- $3,000 on her brother's electric bill
-- $9,000 on luggage and shoes
-- and $110,000 on plastic surgeries and expenses in L.A. for the plastic surgery trips
Charlie -- who currently plays pro ball in Italy -- also claims he gave Kenya $200,000 before leaving for Europe ... so he wants the court to deny her request for him to set aside a large chunk of his money for support. A judge has yet to rule.

Taylor Lautner Cast as Leonardo in ‘Ninja Turtles’ Reboot
It’s been a rough couple weeks for die-hard fans of the “Heroes in a Half Shell” – as producer Michael Bay dropped one controversial Ninja Turtles tidbit after another. As a result, emotions have been running especially high with many fans of the 1980s cartoon series (and comic book source material) fearing that Bay is poised to once again ruin fond childhood memories (remember the flames on Optimus Prime?), this time with a live-action Turtles film adaptation that removes fan-favorite aspects of the lean, green, fighting machines. Unfortunately, word of yet another controversial Ninja Turtles announcement – the casting of Twilight star (and teen heartthrob), Taylor Lautner, in the role of Turtle squad leader Leonardo.
