Chris Rock is assembling an all-star comedy cast for his forthcoming movie Death At A Funeral - both Martin Lawrence and Tracy Morgan have signed on to the project.

Sexy actress Gabrielle Union has started producing her own films because she's sick of all the offers she gets to play black slaves. The The Perfect Holiday star is convinced young moviegoers aren't interested in another big screen lesson about the ills of slavery, and so she's turning heads as a Hollywood go-getter.

Carmen Electra, Leslie Nielsen and Simon Rex are all on board for Dimension Films’ Scary Movie 4. The film will spoof horror and superhero movies. Electra, who appeared in the first Scary Movie (2000), will play a new role in a plotline that parodies The Village. Nielsen and Rex will reprise their roles from Scary Movie 3. The film also features previously announced cast members Anna Faris and Regina Hall.
