The last few months have been rife with casting rumors surrounding the Jurassic Park sequel, Jurassic World. One of the main names involved in these rumors was that of Parks and Recreation
star, Chris Pratt. Though filmmaker Ron Howard (whose daughter, Bryce
Dallas Howard is set to star in the film) reportedly leaked the news of
Pratt's casting, the upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy actor this week confirmed the news and spoke openly about his excitement for the project.
During a recent press event for his new movie, The Lego Movie (in which he voices the main character of the animated adventure film), Pratt revealed that, to him, Jurassic Park was the biggest movie of his life. He even compares it and his fanaticism for the film to that of the Star Wars franchise.

There’s really no arguing that Loki is the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s best villain. As played by Tom Hiddleston, he’s so slyly charismatic that he often threatens to steal the show from right out under the real hero, Chris Hemsworth‘s Thor. But when casting for the first Thor was going on, Hiddleston wasn’t initially set on playing the bad guy. In fact, he originally tried out for the part of Thor.
The bonus features released with the Thor: The Dark World
Blu-ray include Hiddleston’s original audition tape for the role, in
which he goes bare-chested, rocks long blond locks, and swings around
the iconic hammer. See Hiddleston in action as Thor after the jump.

Conor Oberst has revealed that he auditioned for the lead role in Inside Llewyn Davis.
Although the Coen Brothers eventually cast actor Oscar Isaac as the
film's titular folk singer, Oberst was apparently one of several
professional musicians the directors considered for the part.
"I
know I told you this when we met, but I tried out for your role in
Inside Llewyn Davis," Oberst told Isaac as part of an article for Interview magazine. "Thank god for everyone that I didn't get it."
According to an earlier article with the Wall Street Journal,
Joel and Ethan Coen initially hoped to cast "a musician who could act"
as the singer Llewyn Davis. "They auditioned a lot of musicians and
actors for this part," Oberst confirmed, "to the point where I heard the
Coen Brothers and [music supervisor] T Bone Burnett say that they had
more or less given up on the idea of finding someone. And then you
appeared."

dinner where I had had a few drinks," the Brit beauty recently revealed
during a taping of The Graham Norton Show. "My American accent is better after a few drinks and then I decided to eat something—it works for Brad Pitt, who eats all the time in films. It was a really drunk audition."

MARGOT Robbie might have left Neighbours just three short years ago,
but that didn't stop her telling Leonardo DiCaprio he was in her light,
during an intimate scene for a new Martin Scorsese movie.
"They were trying to figure out how to get the shadow off
my face and I knew it was being created by his head – so I moved it,"
says the beautiful blonde Australian who plays DiCaprio's trophy wife in
the darkly comic The Wolf Of Wall Street.
No doubt it's been a while since someone said that to DiCaprio.

For his first movie since 2012's Django Unchained, the director is going back to the Western genre with a script called The Hateful Eight, which he hopes to direct this summer, according to sources. (Another source said there is no timetable at this stage.)
The title suggests Tarantino could be upping the ante, playing off the title of John Sturges' 1960 film The Magnificent Seven, which in turn was a remake of Akira Kurosawa's 1954 Seven Samurai.
No one has been cast yet, but Tarantino has reached out to veteran casting director Victoria Thomas, who worked on Django, to work with him on casting the movie, say several insiders. A part has been written for Christoph Waltz, who starred in Tarantino's Django and Inglourious Basterds.

Actress Cristin Milioti was left cringing with embarrassment after spilling coffee all over a table while auditioning for a role opposite LEONARDO DiCaprio in The Wolf Of Wall Street.

director Martin Scorsese, but she feared she had ruined her chances of
landing the part as DiCaprio's onscreen wife after the disastrous
chemistry test.
She explains, "They
put us together in a room; just me, Leo, and Marty, to see if we had
good chemistry. I was very scared and Marty had us improvise a little
bit.

Sometime before his death, Tupac Shakur reportedly auditioned to play Jedi Master Mace Windu in the 1999 movie Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace. Rick Clifford, who worked as an engineer at Death Row Records, said in a recent interview for the website 2Pac-Forum
that Shakur told him he had gone for a reading with George Lucas but
that the part went to Samuel L. Jackson. (Incidentally, Jackson appeared
in the 1992 movie Juice alongside the rapper.)
Although the period in which Shakur would have auditioned for Lucas is not clear, shooting on Episode I began in June 1997, less than a year after the rapper's murder in September 1996.

HOLLYWOOD — Kellan Lutz arrives for an interview nearly hoarse from
hours of re-recording his dialogue from his new movie, the action
fantasy “The Legend of Hercules.” That explains the hoarseness, but for
some reason the North Dakota native is speaking with a distinctively
British accent.
No matter. Lutz, of course, is the hunky actor who played the
mindreading vampire Emmett Cullen in the “Twilight” saga, and what he
has to say today about his new movie is more important than how he
chooses to say it.
Buffed to the max, the 28-year-old former Calvin Klein model explains
that he long has been a fan of the mythological strong man, which is why
he jumped at the chance to star in Renny Harlin’s latest take on the
oft-told story.
