Avengers Script Johansson hurt on Lucy Set Geoff Johns

Keanu Reeves spoke with Access Hollywood about his upcoming samurai film, 47 Ronin and what it was like to learn the katana.



Scripts are apparently being sent out to the Avengers: Age of Ultron cast. Mark Ruffalo just got his. Filming starts February 2014 in London.




Scarlett Johansson injured on Lucy

Scarlett Johansson is tough, she performed a lot of her own stunts in the first Avengers movie and said she left the set covered in bruises a lot of days. Johansson wanted to bring that same level of toughness on her new superhero movie Lucy, a film about a drug mule that gains super powers when she actually ingests the experimental drug she's trafficking. Well one stunt in the film has reportedly gave Johansson a big scare. In a scene where her character is being pursued, Johansson is meant to jump out of a moving car. Only her backpack got caught in the closing door as she was leaping out and she was dragged along for a little bit. "ScarJo started screaming for her life, the horrified driver slammed on the breaks and the vehicle came to a screeching halt," says The Belfast Telegraph, who added, "Filming was halted and a stunt double was brought in to complete the risky scene." Lucy is slated to open sometime next year and also stars Morgan Freeman (The Dark Knight Rises).

Geoff Johns DC TV

Reportedly, DC Entertainment want Geoff Johns writing less comic books and being more of an executive which is reportedly why he's pulling himself off titles like Green Lantern and Aquaman. He's also getting ready to wrap up his run on Forever Evil. But it looks as if he's going to pick up one more title in the New Year. Speaking to CBR, Johns stated, "I'm focused on wrapping up "Forever Evil" and I want to make "Justice League" the best it can possibly be, but there's a lot of stuff going on that's taking a lot of my time. I'm busy working on "The Flash" pilot, and "Arrow's" still going strong. There's obviously a lot of stuff brewing right now. Once we hit the new year, I don't know when it'll be talked about, but there's another book coming." Come on Geoff, we need you more on those Constantine, Flash, iZombie and Gotham tv projects.
