This may be the best thing we have heard all week. According to various sources, one of our favourite ‘90s romantic comedies is getting a reboot.

She’s All That, originally starring Freddie Prinze Jr. and Rachael Leigh Cook (oh, and Usher too) is said to be getting the modern treatment; with Kenny Leon set to direct and Tonya Lewis Lee as producer.

The comedy sees high-school jock Zack making a bet to transform quiet artistic Laney Boggs into prom queen. Naturally, Zack ends up falling for Laney and things start to get Real (World). 

So, it's time to start fan-casting. We're thinking Liam Hemsworth as Zack and Selena Gomez as Laney Boggs. Do you have anyone in mind for the roles? 

Here's our favourite scene to bring back those '90s memories:

The first official teaser trailer for the Amy Winehouse documentary has been released. 

Created by the makers of the BAFTA-award winning SENNA, AMY contains much archival footage of the tragic singer that many fans will never have seen. 

From the beginnings of a glittering career, to her demise from alcohol, the documentary tracks Amy's life and features her own thoughts on fame: "I don't think I'm going to be at all famous. I don't think I could handle it. I would probably go mad, d'ya know what I mean, I'd go mad."

Amy passed away aged just 27 in the summer of 2011.

There’s very exciting news for Beyoncé fans today as the news has leaked that she will be starring in upcoming movie The Big Short!

The star-studded cast already features major Hollywood players such as Brad Pitt, Ryan Gosling, Steve Carrell and Christian Bale – and now Queen Bey!

However, it is believed the news was not meant for the attention of the public quite yet and was accidentally leaked by author of The Big Short, Michael lewis.

Speaking on CBS, the author of the book on which the movie is based, speaks about the cast adding “and I think Beyoncé”. Oops!

This will be far from Bey’s first film however, as she has actually starred in TEN since 2001 although her last big screen appearance was in the animated film Epic in 2013. 

We can’t wait to see where this goes.

Those of you who have read Fifty Shades of Grey will be all too familiar with the er, tampon scene…

For those of you who haven’t, in the scene Anastasia has her period and before they have sex, Christian pulls her tampon out. Sorry…

Now that has been uncomfortably explained, it has been revealed that the scene won’t be making the movie, which we have to say isn’t all that surprising given that it isn’t the sexiest of scenes to imagine.

Talking to Variety, the director Sam Taylor-Johnson revealed that the infamous scene wouldn’t cut it: “It didn’t make the movie. It was never even discussed.”

Producer of the movie, Michael DeLuca explained that the decision, saying: “The book needed to put you in Ana’s shoes to be a successful experience. A lot of it was very literal. The movie didn’t need to do that. It’s a completely different medium.”

Are you relieved or disappointed that the scene won’t be hitting the cinemas?

Angelina Jolie is receiving some harsh criticism from Japanese nationalist conservatives who have accused her new movie, Unbroken, as being racist.

In a dramatic move, they have demanded that the actress be banned from the country, reportedly launching a petition on Change.org that has gained 8,000 signatures so far.

The move depicts the life of Louis Zamperini, an US Olympian who was spent 47 days at sea before being captured and tortured by the Japanese navy.

However, campaigners have called the movie immoral, with a member of the Society for the Dissemination of Historical Fact telling The Telegraph: “If there is no verification of the things he said, then anyone can make such claims. This movie has no credibility and is immoral.”

Jake Gyllenhaal has undergone yet another dramatic body transformation!

Following his weight-loss for Nightcrawler earlier this year, he has now gone in a completely different direction and piled on a reported 7kg of muscle for new movie, Southpaw

Jake is playing the role of Billy 'The Great' Hope in the upcoming movie and the director, Antoine Fuqua, has said that they "turned him into a beast" for the role: "Jake is going to change how people see him. I had him training twice a day in the boxing ring. He did two-a-day seven days a week."

Jake lost 10kg to play Lou Bloom in the critically acclaimed Nightcrawler but it seems he wasn’t long looking for his next challenging role!

Is he following in Matthew McConaughey’s Oscar dreams?

Every couple – married or otherwise – fights from time to time. It’s totally normal – unless you’re famous and it gets caught on a long lens, that is!

Which is exactly what happened to Brad and Angelina, after they were snapped having what is being called: “The final fight.”

While we’re not so convinced about that particular part, the discussion they are having certainly looks heated, and Brad looks to be quite frustrated about the whole thing.

We’re sure the couple, who are known to be dedicated parents to their six children, will be just fine, so let’s not panic just yet!

In fact, it was only today that a video was released showing Angelina opening up about her marriage, saying: "I'm gonna be a better wife. I'm gonna cook!" 

Watch out for the moment Angelina gets SUPER awkward when the reporter mentions we first met the couple on Mr & Mrs. Smith, which is when they are alleged to have begun a relationship, despite Brad still being married to Jennifer. Eek! Catch it at 2.02!
