That&#8217;s his son, if you didn&#8217;t get the connection.</p>
<p>The project would cast Downey as the leader of a team posted at a remote space station. When he and a female colleague are outside the space station, debris from an exploded satellite decimates the remainder of their team &#8212; and presumably the space station as well. Bummer. Word was a couple of weeks back that Angelina Jolie was going to be starring, but that rumor was quickly shot down. Filming begins this summer in London.</p>
<p>Downey will be in theaters in a couple of months in <a title="Iron Man 2 Movie" href="http://www.empiremovies.com/tag/iron-man-2/">Iron Man 2</a>.</p>

<p>A while back it was reported that Mickey Rourke would be playing Conan&#8217;s father in the upcoming <strong><a title="Conan Movie" href="http://www.empiremovies.com/tag/conan/">Conan</a></strong> movie. Looks like things have changed because <a href="http://nymag.com/daily/entertainment/" target="_blank">Vulture</a> has word now that Ron Perlman will play the role. Rourke will instead be starring in War of the Gods.</p>
<p>Continuing the Conan casting, <a href="http://www.heatvisionblog.com/" target="_blank">Heat Vision</a> is reporting that Said Taghmaoui has also joined the movie playing a leader of thieves who is saved by Conan. Taghmaou appeared last year as Breaker in G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra. You might also recognize from his role as Caesar in a few episodes of Lost last season.</p>
<p>And finally, <a href="http://www.variety.com/" target="_blank">Variety</a> says that Rose McGowan will take a role in the movie playing a half-human/half-witch. So what does this mean for McGowan starring in a Red Sonja movie? Is that still happening?</p>
<p><em>Conan</em>, starring Jason Momoa in the title role, began filming this week in Bulgaria with Marcus Nispel directing. Rachel Nichols and Stephen Lang also star.</p>

<p><strong>Synopsis</strong>: &#8220;How come nobody&#8217;s ever tried to be a superhero?&#8221; When Dave Lizewski &#8212; ordinary New York teenager and rabid comic-book geek &#8212; dons a green-and-yellow internet-bought wetsuit to become the no-nonsense vigilante, Kick-Ass, he soon finds an answer to his own question: because it hurts. But, overcoming all the odds, the eager yet inexperienced Dave quickly becomes a phenomenon, capturing the imagination of the public. However, he&#8217;s not the only superhero out there &#8212; the fearless and highly-trained father-daughter crime-fighting duo, Big Daddy and Hit Girl have been slowly but surely taking down the criminal empire of local Mafioso, Frank D&#8217;Amico. And, as Kick-Ass gets drawn into their no-holds-barred world of bullets and bloodletting with Frank&#8217;s son, Chris, now reborn as Kick-Ass&#8217;s arch-nemesis, Red Mist &#8212; the stage is set for a final showdown between the forces of good and evil &#8212; in which the DIY hero will have to live up to his name. Or die trying&#8230;</p>
<p><em>Kick-Ass</em> opens April 16th.</p>

<p><strong><a title="Alice in Wonderland Movie" href="http://www.empiremovies.com/tag/alice-in-wonderland/">Alice in Wonderland</a></strong> was the top movie at the box office for a 2nd straight weekend earning another $62 million &#8212; a 46% drop from last weekend when it opened with $116 million. The movie has now earned $208.6 million.</p>
<p>Opening in 2nd place was <a title="Green Zone Movie" href="http://www.empiremovies.com/tag/green-zone/">Green Zone</a> starring Matt Damon and directed by Paul Greengrass. The movie, produced on a reported budget of $100 million, opened with an estimated $14.5 million.</p>
<p>In 3rd spot was <a title="She's Out of My League Movie" href="http://www.empiremovies.com/tag/shes-out-of-my-league/">She&#8217;s Out of My League</a> starring Jay Baruchel and Alice Eve. The romantic comedy opened with $9.6 million.</p>
<p>Not quite the same opening as a <a title="Twilight Movies" href="http://www.empiremovies.com/tag/twilight/">Twilight</a> movie but <a title="Remember Me Movie" href="http://www.empiremovies.com/tag/remember-me/">Remember Me</a>, starring Robert Pattinson, opened in 4th place with $8.3 million. Not bad for a movie that likely would have tanked had it starred anybody else.</p>
<p>Rounding out the top 5 movies was <a title="Shutter Island Movie" href="http://www.empiremovies.com/tag/shutter-island/">Shutter Island</a> starring Leonardo DiCaprio and directed by Martin Scorsese. The movie added another $8.1 million bringing its 4-week total to $108 million.</p>
<p>The only other new release to crack the top ten movies was the Fox Searchlight comedy <a title="Our Family Wedding Movie" href="http://www.empiremovies.com/tag/our-family-wedding/">Our Family Wedding</a> starring Forest Whitaker, America Ferrera and Carlos Mencia.</p>
