British actor Alex Pettyfer has launched his own production company in a bid to branch out into moviemaking.

The 22 year old has found fame in Hollywood with starring roles in Magic Mike, Beastly and I Am Number Four, but he dreams of working behind the camera as a director.

He tells Britain's Men's Health magazine, "I'm very ambitious. I live in reality but I have dreams I want to fulfill - I want to be a director, and I've already started my own production company. But I also have a measure of success that I keep to myself. It's something very personal to me."

British star Alex Pettyfer went overboard bulking up to play a stripper in Magic Mike and was ordered to lose weight before shooting began.

The actor hit the gym to beef up his physique after being cast as an exotic dancer in the Hollywood movie, but after gaining 27 pounds, producers decided he was too big. Pettyfer was then forced to undo all his hard work and slim down before filming kicked off last autumn.

He tells Britain's Men's Health magazine, "I put on a bit of weight for this film. I started off at 169 pounds and went up to 196 pounds. They told me I was too big, so in the end...

A teenage fugitive with an incredible secret races to stay one step ahead of the mysterious forces seeking to track and destroy him in the sci-fi action thriller "I Am Number 4" from director D.J. Caruso ("Disturbia," "Eagle Eye").

With three dead and one on the run, the race to find the elusive Number Four begins. Outwardly normal teen John Smith (Alex Pettyfer) never gets too comfortable in the same identity, and along with his guardian, Henri (Timothy Olyphant), he is constantly moving from town to town -- the perpetual new kid in a series of strangely familiar schools.

Despite the fa...

Demi Moore is reportedly set to seduce Alex Pettyfer in an upcoming film inspired by Channing Tatum's experience as a stripper.

Moore is in talks to play an older woman who tempts Pettyfer, a newcomer to exotic dancing, in upcoming movie Magic Mike, which is based on Tatum's brief stint stripping at the age of 19 before finding fame as an actor. Tatum will star as Pettyfer's mentor.

And the 48-year-old actress, who bared all in 1996 movie Striptease, is said to be thrilled about joining the cast.

A source tells Eonline.com, "Demi met with (director) Steven Soderbergh at Soho House in ...

Alex Pettyfer has been hired to star in a film inspired by the real life experiences of stripper-turned-actor Channing Tatum.

The "I Am Number Four" star has been picked to lead the cast of Magic Mike, which will be directed by Steven Soderbergh and produced by Tatum.

The film chronicles the life of a young man who bares all for lusty women as he struggles to make a living.

Tatum, who wowed the ladies with his toned physique in Florida before he became an actor, will play a character who mentors the stripper.

Production is slated to begin in Los Angeles in August.

Outspoken Alex Pettyfer has taken aim at Hollywood in a profanity-laden interview.

The "I Am Number Four" star, who has picked up a reputation for being anti-industry, has let it be known he's not a fan of Tinseltown and its power people during a recent interview with VMAN magazine.

The British hunk says, "L.A. is growing on me a little bit but it's still a s**thole. I think it's this insidious pool where nearly everyone lives in fear. Geographically it's fantastic, but socially it's disgusting. I wish they'd run all the c**ts out.

"I really don't give a s**t about any of that. I wish I ...

Not only did I see last week’s comedy “Hall Pass” starring Owen Wilson and Jason Sudeikis, but I had the chance to interview its directors Peter and Bobby Farrelly. If you haven’t already, definitely check out my interview, and my review of “Hall Pass.”

I also hit theater to see the Ed Helms comedy “Cedar Rapids” which I thoroughly enjoyed. Helms stars as Tim Lippe, a small-town Wisconsin guy who’s dispatched to an insurance seminar in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. The naïve Lippe is shocked when he arrives at the conference, where three of the wildest attendees Dean Ziegler (John C. Reilly), Jo...

Glee star Dianna Agron is already getting over her recent split from Alex Pettyfer - she's hooked up with actor Chris Evans, according to a report.

The actress and her I Am Number Four co-star ended their romance earlier this month after less than a year of dating.

However, Agron isn't pining over the hunky Brit - she was spotted flirting with Fantastic Four star Evans at a pre-Oscars party, where the pair spent all night chatting and eventually exchanged cell phone numbers.

A source tells New York Post gossip column Page Six, "They were flirting and deep in conversation for a while b...

Glee's Dianna Agron didn't exactly sing a wistful ballad following her split from actor Alex Pettyfer after nearly a year together.

Since moving out of the L.A. home she and the I Am Number Four star shared about two weeks ago, Agron, 24, "is staying at a hotel under an alias" a source reveals in the new Us Weekly, out Wednesday.

Why the secrecy? Pettyfer, 20, has been "a psycho loose cannon" in the aftermath of the split, another insider says.

On Feb. 18, according to an eyewitness, he got into a heated confrontation at a West Hollywood club with actor Sebastian Stan -- furiously accusi...

After Lee Daniels took "Precious" from low-budget Sundance indie all the way to a Best Picture nomination at the 2010 Oscars, getting another project off the ground should have been a piece of cake. Post-Best Director nomination, Daniels circled "Selma," a racial period drama, "The Butler," an epic biopic starring Denzel Washington and an adaptation of the gritty Broadway musical "The Scottsboro Boys." Nothing seemed to come together.

Now, Vulture reports, Daniels is honing in on a project that's a little more Hollywood, a little less prestige and a whole lot more probable of getting the g...

Lydia Hearst has laughed off reports she sparked Alex Pettyfer's rumored break-up from Dianna Agron after posing for a sexy photo shoot with the British hunk.

The socialite-turned-actress stripped off to her bra for a risqué series of shots with Pettyfer, in which the pair is shown kissing with another scantily-clad female model.

The recently emerged photos were said to have prompted Agron to call it quits with Pettyfer, but Hearst is adamant she shouldn't be blamed for the I Am Number Four co-stars' split - because the pictures were taken before they began dating.

She tells TMZ.com, ...

Liam Neeson's thriller "Unknown" has shocked movie industry experts by beating action film "I Am Number Four" to the top of the box office.

The closely contested race ended with Neeson's new film, in which he plays a botanist who ceases to exist in the eyes of his family and colleagues after a car crash, scoring a $21.8 million opening weekend - $2 million more than second-placed "I Am Number Four," which stars "Glee's" Dianna Agron and Brit Alex Pettyfer.

"Glee" star Dianna Agron has reportedly split from her boyfriend Alex Pettyfer just two weeks after the couple denied rumors they were engaged.

The "I Am Number Four" co-stars have been dating for less than a year, and earlier this month their representatives shot down reports Pettyfer had proposed.

Now it appears their romance is over - Agron has moved out of the home she shared with the British actor, according to UsMagazine.com.

Cinematic aliens, for the most part, like to sow terror once they arrive in our midst -- think of the acid-blooded "Aliens," the people-mulching tripods of "War of the Worlds," the uber-hunter in "Predator," and "Gerard Depardieu."

Aliens that do come in peace are usually too otherworldly to be compatible for romance -- no one wants to date "ET." But every now and then, a humanoid alien lands, looking hotter than the two suns over Tatooine, and we can't blame anyone for wanting to visit the dark side of the moon with them.

Starting with Alex Pettyfer's gorgeous extra-terrestrial in "I Am ...

For whatever case I cannot explain, I found this failed franchise simply dull. The film’s hype, its synopsis and information I had gathered had more of an appeal than the actual narrative piece. I can almost bet my life by mid April I know this will be a forgotten film. Why? Well, this bit of teen-pandering sci-fi is about as inoffensive and blandly entertaining as director D.J. Caruso's last film ‘EAGLE EYE’ (’08), but cut from an even less original corner of the sci-fi genre. Leads Alex Pettyfer and Dianna Agron are two perfectly attractive young snobs who look great while running away fr...

'I Am Number Four' directed by D. J. Caruso (Disturbia) is a scifi/action/teen-love story based on the best selling novel of the same name.

Alex Pettyfer portrays John Smith (Number Four). John is your basic teenage alien from the planet, Lorien. He's being hunted by the super evil Mogadorians. The villainous Mogadorians are eliminating the nine Loriens that are hiding on earth in numerical order.

When the film opens, Lorien Number Three, who's been living in Florida, has just been killed. Realizing that he's next, John and his teacher/protector, Henri (Timothy Olyphant) exchange thei...
