MOVIES: Richard Madden joins Cinderella cast

The Walt Disney Studios have announced that Richard Madden of Game of Thrones fame, has been cast as the Prince in the upcoming live-action adaptation of the Cinderella fairy tale. We’ve learned previously that Cate Blanchett and Lily James had been hired as the wicked stepmother and Cinderella. I really have no idea when the release date for this movie is, but I am a tad interested in seeing this knowing that Sir Kenneth Branagh is directing.

Happy Mother’s Day from Monsters University

Ever since college-bound Mike Wazowski (voice of Billy Crystal) was a little monster, he has dreamed of becoming a Scarer—and he knows better than anyone that the best Scarers come from Monsters University (MU). But during his first semester at MU, Mike’s plans are derailed when he crosses paths with hotshot James P. Sullivan, “Sulley” (voice of John Goodman), a natural-born Scarer.  The pair’s out-of-control competitive spirit gets them both kicked out of the University’s elite Scare Program. To make matters worse, they realize they will have to work together, along with an odd bunch of misfit monsters, if they ever hope to make things right.

Screaming with laughter and oozing with heart, Disney•Pixar’s “Monsters University” is directed by Dan Scanlon (“Cars,” “Mater and the Ghostlight,” “Tracy”), produced by Kori Rae (“Up,” “The Incredibles,” “Monsters, Inc.”) and features music from Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee and award-winning composer Randy Newman  (“Monsters, Inc.,” “Toy Story 3”). The film opens in U.S. theaters on June 21, 2013, and will be shown in 3D in select theaters.
