X-Men Overkill

Because Hugh Jackman‘s X-Men : Wolverine kicked booty at the box office last weekend and is expected to do next weekend, you can bet your booty the spin-offs are already in the works. According to Variety, Ryan Reynolds‘ “Wolverine” character Deadpool, is getting his very own spin-off. Good! Does this mean we will see less of Ryan in those cheesy not-so-funny romantic comedies? Here’s hoping so!

For those of you who have NOT seen “Wolverine” yet,

Ryan Reynolds plays the Marvel superhero in X-Men : Wolverine and will resurrect Wade Wilson, a cancer-stricken soldier who becomes an indestructible renegade mutant after submitting to the military’s top-secret Weapon X experiment. At the end of Wolverine, Deadpool is seen rising from the rubble and whispering “Shhh” to audiences.

However, Deadpool is not the only project in the works. Expect at least THREE other X-Men projects brought to you by FOX. Prepare for an X-Men overkill!

Mel Steps Out With His Lovah

Mel Gibson may be going through a nasty divorce, but that sure as hell hasn’t stopped the actor from showing off his new girlfriend. Last night Mel showed up to the Los Angeles premiere of X-Men : Wolverine with his new lovah . Wowsers! Now I think this is kind of odd considering Mel RARELY steps out to attend events in Hollywood.

A source at the screening said

the couple kept a low-profile and declined to pose on the red carpet together and instead hurried into Grauman’s .

Gibson’s rep told People magazine, “Mel has been single for almost three years and it’s nice to see him getting out and enjoying himself.”

However…I am sure Miss Oksana is LOVING the attention!
