This weekend, Jason Bateman and Ryan Reynolds will add their names to the long and distinguished list of actors who have tackled the “body swap” movie. In “The Change-Up,” Bateman and Reynolds play friends with drastically different lifestyles: Bateman is the devoted husband and father, Reynolds is the philandering playboy. After a night of drinking, the two wake up in each other’s bodies, something neither of them really wanted.

Body swap movies have been around for a long time and are usually quite entertaining, if formulaic and predictable. Here’s our list of the Top Ten Body Swap Movi...

Tom Hanks is using his Twitter.com page to give fans a sneak peak into his next movie Larry Crowne - he's posted a photograph showing the actors he's cast in the lead roles.

The Big star has been hard at work on the comedy, which he will star in and direct, and has sneaked several pictures of the set to his virtual followers on the social networking site.

Now, he's given away his biggest clue yet by posting a snap of his office's "Casting Wall," which features his own headshot next to those of George Takei, Taraji P. Henson and his former Charlie Wilson's War co-star Julia Roberts.

The much anticipated new movie 17 Again, starring Zac Efron, hit theaters last Friday and achieved the number one spot at the box office over the weekend. But how "new" is the movie? The plot may be something we've seen before, as a 37-year-old who is unhappy with his life goes back to being 17 so he can relive his glory days. Things aren't exactly easy for him, especially since the trends have changed, he has to make all new friends, and he is in high school with his children. While the story is slightly different from other body-swapping movies, the general concept is the same. Here ...

Dear Zac Efron,

Rather than Twittering, updating our blogs with lots of OMGs, XOXOXOs, and exclamation points (!!!!!), or do whatever else it is your tween fans do these days, we thought we'd take the time and break out the vintage letter format.

All eyes are on you as '17 Again' hits theaters this weekend. This is your chance to solidify your status as leading man…or go the way of so many other fallen teen idols only to end up on some crappy VH1 show where you battle your alcoholism and inner demons at age 41.

Honestly we're not that psyched about the movie itself ('Peggy...

Boy oh boy, Tom Hanks sure has come a long way from his humble bumble beginning as the cross-dressing Kip Wilson on the television show "Bosom Buddies." With a slew of critically acclaimed performances and two back-to-back Academy Award wins for his roles in "Philadelphia" and "Forrest Gump," there is no denying that Mr. Hanks is one of the most talented actors in Hollywood. He may not be the most handsome guy in the room, but Tom Hanks' winning combination of boy-next-door charm and multifaceted talent has indubitably ascertained him to be an American staple, like apple pie or hot dogs. Ne...

Tom Hanks was desperate to team up with his actor son Colin for a new movie - after he saw a chance to play father and son onscreen.

Colin Hanks was signed up to play the lead role in upcoming film The Great Buck Howard and when his famous father saw the script, he immediately wanted to join the project - portraying the 31-year-old's dad.

But the Big star first had to persuade his son before he could approach movie bosses. He tells the New York Daily News, "After Colin showed me the script, I said I'd like to play (his character's) dad. Colin rolled his eyes and said, 'All right, ...

This mini-season of The Hills came to a close last night, and my grade would be a C+. The highlights of this season - Kelly Cutrone, Kelly Cutrone, and more Kelly Cutrone. The lowlights - Stephanie Pratt, Spencer Pratt, the complete Barbie-fication of Heidi, and LC's lackluster turn as a jobless, student-less, sometimes heartless reality celeb.

It's almost as if the Paris Hilton syndrome infected the "Hills" stars this mini season. Symptoms of the Paris Hilton syndrome include a complete lack of purpose, no will or drive to succeed, and an especially cavalier attitude towards life...

There's the quintessential romantic comedy, and then there's the romdramedy. Similar to a dramedy (in which there is an equal balance of humor and serious content), a romdramedy combines comedy and drama with that mushy thing we call romance.

This is not a list of the best films over the past 20 years. Rather it is a list that gives preferences to those films that best combine all three elements - romance, comedy and drama.

Films like Magnolia and The Matrix were barred from competition, while films like Down with Love were considered (however, that one didn't make the cut)....

Think of your favorite comedies. Whether it be Monty Python And The Holy Grail, Caddyshack, Animal House, or recent films like Dumb and Dumber, Anchorman, The 40-Year-Old Virgin or Borat, they all have something in common. Each film boasts incredible performances, and the Academy has not recognized any of them. How is this fair? Bill Murray, Jim Carrey, Will Ferrell, Adam Sandler, Ben Stiller - all the successful comic actors should get their due.

It is equally hard to create a great comedy as it is to make a gripping drama. The Golden Globes have a separate category for comedic perfo...

Tom Hanks is hoping to hear his name when the Oscar nominations are announced later this month - because he is desperate for another Academy Award.

The 51-year-old - who won two Best Actor in a Leading Role gongs for 1993 movie Philadelphia and Forrest Gump in 1994 - is keeping his fingers crossed for a nomination for his role in Charlie Wilson's War when the shortlist is revealed on January 22.

He says, "If I'm 90 and haven't scored another one, I will truly view the latter part of my career as some kind of failure."

Hanks has also been nominated for Best Actor in a Leading ...
