Jurassic Park IV
What do you think of a fourth installment of Jurassic Park? Would it be any good? Would it be successful? I think they should quit while they’re ahead as each sequel in the franchise has gotten worse. Could Jurassic Park IV turn things around?

And what about casting? With Jurassic Park 4 rumored to be in the works, is it likely that any of the original cast would return for the fourth installment? TV Guide asked Laura Dern if she would reprise her role as Dr. Ellie Sattler… and she said, “It’s a while away but my understanding is it’s happening and my character is very involved. I know [director] Steven Spielberg is looking forward to [getting it together] over the next year.”

Abbie Hoffman

Sasha Baron Cohen, aka Borat, aka Ali G, might be appearing in a Steven Spielberg film, The Trial of the Chicago 7 (2010). The film is about counter-culture hero Abbie Hoffman (pictured above and in video clip below), who was one of several protesters involved in disrupting the 1968 Democratic convention. Charges against Hoffman and others – conspiring to incite a riot – were dismissed. His death on April 12, 1989 was ruled a suicide.

Cohen is reported to be taking on the role of Abbie Hoffman. He’s currently appearing as a rival barber to Johnny Depp in Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street. He’ll also be in Bruno in 2008, and Dinner for Schmucks and Curly Oxide and Vice Thrill, both in 2009.
