SAM WORTHINGTON IN "DRACULA YEAR ZERO". HUGH DANCY AND MAGGIE GYLLENHAAL IN "HYSTERIA". WHO WILL BE THE FEMALE LEAD IN NEW "SPIDER-MAN"?

Earlier this year, I've informed you that Sam Worthington might star in "Dracula Year Zero", a movie to be directed by Alex Proyas ("The Crow", "I Robot"), and now it's official. According to "MovieWeb", the $100 million project will be the origin story of Vlad the Impaler, the Romanian royalty who terrorized his nation and inspired Bram Stoker to create his classic character, Dracula. The production will start in June 2011 in Australia.

Now, here's a crazy piece of news: Maggie Gyllenhaal and Hugh Dancy will star in the romantic comedy "Hysteria", centered on the invention of the vibrator in Victorian-era England. Hugh Dancy will be a doctor in London treating cases of hysteria, a condition said to be characterized at the time by a woman's irritability, anger or unexplained tears. He and his best friend (Rupert Everett) will experiment with a new electrical device for treatment for the ailment. Maggie Gyllenhaal will play the daughter of his colleague :))

Since they've chosen Andrew Garfield to play Peter Parker in the upcoming "Spider-Man" reboot, the producers are now auditioning girls for the main female character, Gwen Stacy. According to "Heat Vision" three lovely young actresses Emma Roberts ("Scream 4"), Teresa Palmer ("Mad Max Fury Road") and Imogen Poots ("Centurion") are top contenders for the role of Spidey's love interest.
