Film Junk Weekend Wrap-Up: Oct. 19, 2008

The biggest news stories in the movie world from the past seven days include the replacement of Terrence Howard in Iron Man 2, and a handful of photos released from J.J. Abrams’ Star Trek, however there were also some other smaller announcements including a new comedy for Steve Carell and confirmation of Kevin Smith’s next flick. Alas, it’s also looking like we will not see another live-action He-Man movie anytime soon, and Cormac McCarthy’s The Road could very well end up being pushed back to 2009.
