Will Forte’s “MacGruber” typically has about 20 seconds to get his friends out of trouble – albeit, always inevitably unsuccessfully — during his spy spoof “Saturday Night Live” skits.
Now, he’s about to get a lot more time – on a lot bigger screen.

Quentin Tarantino and Brad Pitt have spun some revisionist history on how World War II ended.
Their war saga “Inglourious Basterds” premiered Wednesday at the Cannes Film Festival, presenting a band of Jewish Allied soldiers led by Pitt who play a pivotal role in taking down the Third Reich with a strategic strike against the top Nazi brass.
“It was definitely outrageous, which I’m always game for,” Pitt said of Tarantino’s rewrite of the history books.

Cameron Diaz says she’s a big fan of “Shrek the Musical” but has no desire to star in it.
The actress, who voices Princess Fiona in the “Shrek” film franchise, raved about the musical adaptation of the animated blockbuster at its Broadway opening Sunday night.
Asked whether she’d consider portraying Fiona on stage, she said: “No. Absolutely not. What they do up there … is, to me, impossible. It’s wonderful, though. They’ve done such a great job. They worked really hard, and it really pays off.”

Mike Myers may be notoriously picky when it comes to choosing his big screen roles, but at least he knows how to pick ‘em. With the exception of 2003’s disappointing “The Cat in the Hat,” the former “Saturday Night Live” player has toplined just 2 other major film properties since 1997: “Austin Powers” and “Shrek,” both of which turned into top grossing franchises.
But after beating those characters into the ground with sequels that suffered in quality, Myers has gone back to the drawing board with his first original creation in 11 years. Turns out that swapping his mojo for karma was a good thing, since “The Love Guru” is a refreshing, irresistible, silly and often hilarious comedy that fits the bill as the funniest movie of the year (at least, so far).
