Following the $600 million success of Men In Black 3, it’s not too surprising that Sony Pictures wants another one. Now they’re moving forward with Men in Black 4, hiring screenwriter Oren Uziel (The Kitchen Sink) to write the screenplay, according to TheWrap.

Uziel’s going to be busy, as the studio has also set the writer to re-write the script for 21 Jump Street 2. He’ll work on 21 Jump Street 2 script before moving on to Men In Black 4.

While some had wondered whether audiences would be interested in for Men In Black after such as long gap, but the third instalment turned out to be the highest grossing of the franchise. No details are known about the planned fourth film, and while it’s likely Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones are open to returning, no deals have been set yet.

Jonah Hill and Michael Bacall’s wrote the original draft for 21 Jump Street 2. Sony recently confirmed a June 6, 2014 release, so it’s likely Uziel will be doing a polish rather than a complete overhaul. Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum will be back as Schmidt and Jenko, with Dave Franco likely returning as Eric Molson.

Luc Besson seems to spend most of his time producing an endless series of ball to the walls action thrillers, but he’s currently taking time out to direct one, Malavita, with Robert De Niro, Tommy Lee Jones and Michelle Pfeiffer set to star. Now the first behind-the-scene image has emerged, which sees De Niro and Jones discussing a shot with Besson.

Based on a novel by Tonino Benacquista Malavita is about a retired American gangster (De Niro) who is taken in by the witness relocation program and moved to Normandy, France. However, he doesn’t fit into his new lifestyle that easily. It should be in cinemas next year

Tommy Lee Jones showed he was a pretty good director with 2005′s The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada, but since then he’s only helmed the TV movie The Sunset Limited. However, a few months ago he revealed plans to direct his passion project, The Homesman, and it appears he’s getting some heavyweight female talent to star, as TheWrap reports Meryl Streep and Hilary Swank are both attached to the movie.

The period drama is about on a claim-jumper (Tommy Lee Jones) and a pioneer woman (Swank) in the 19th Century, who both escort three insane women on a bizarre journey from Nebraska to Iowa, where they must brave the harsh elements along the way. It’s not 100% clear who Streep will play, but she could well be one of the mad ladies.

There’s no news on when the movie might shoot, but that may become clearer after the upcoming American Film Market, where the film will be looking for buyers.

It’s never a bad idea to cast Tommy Lee Jones in a movie, and Luc Besson obviously agress, he’s now got the action in talks to join his crime drama Malavita, according to Variety. Robert De Niro and Michelle Pfeiffer are already attached to star.

The story follows a notorious organised crime family that needs to be relocated to France under a witness protection program. They find themselves giving in to old habits and falling back into the ‘family’ way. Robert De Niro and Michelle Pfeiffer play husband and wife in the drama. Tommy Lee Jones meanwhile will be a FBI agent who looks after the family and helps them blend into their new environment.

Luc Besson adapted the screenplay from a book by author Tonino Benacquista, titled Badfellas. Shooting begins in July with the studio shooting for a 2013 release.
