A few YBFers made their way to the red carpet Sunday night for the 2013 MTV Movie Awards at the Sony Pictures Studios in Culver City, CA.  Check out Kerry Washington, dual winner Jamie Foxx, Zoe Saldana and more inside…

Django Unchained star Kerry Washington made a bold statement on the red carpet with a long sleeved black dress with a yellow skirt and train from the Michael Kors Fall 2013 RTW collection.  The fashionable "Scandal" actress made the look effortless as she hit the carpet solo, as well as with her co-star Jamie Foxx.

And speaking of Jamie:

The actor, rocking a Trayvon Martin tee, brought his gorge 19-year-old daughter Corinne on the carpet as his date for the evening.  We’re sure the two celebrated hard as Jamie was awarded the MTV Generation Award (an award given to an artist "who has shown a variety of impressive roles, a personal and professional flair and of course, an awesome level of talent"). 

And he also copped the "Best WTF Moment" award with Samuel L. Jackson for their scenes in Django Unchained.

Zoe Saldana also donned a long sleeved black top, and paired it with a stand-out bottom half.  The Givenchy Autumn/Winter 2013 floral lace & sheer polka dotted long skirt was topped off with a pair of Jimmy Choo Kalpa sandals. 

Chick is looking like she’s either dieting extra hard…still… or she’s still stressed about her break up with The Words co-star Bradley Cooper, who was also there and copped an award.

Scary Movie 5 star Snoop Dogg hit the carpet in his Cali plaid shirt and pants, paird with a pimpalicious red fur jacket.  And can’t forget the pimp curls.

Cutie Quvenzhané Wallis, who’s starring in the upcoming Annie remake, kept it young with a lavender jacket & a multi colored hi-lo dress with matching sneakers.  How adorable is she!

And Ru Paul was all about the florals in his matchy matchy blazer & tailored pants with the white loafers.  Clean.  Get it Ru!

MOVIE FAB: Sanaa Lathan & Terrence Howard STARRING In “Macbett” + Halle Berry REPRISING “STORM” For “X-MEN: Days of Future Past”

The Best Man stars Sanaa Lathan and Terrence Howard are teaming up again for a remake of Shakespeare’s Macbeth.  Get the deets inside and find out what famous role Halle Berry is set to reprise…

 

Sanaa Lathan and Terrence Howard have signed on to join Blair Underwood and Evan Ross in a remake  of William Shakespeare’s Macbeth. The retooled film will be called Macbett and will shoot on location in Jamaica and Puerto Rico in September 2013.

Terrence, who also serves as executive producer of the film, will be working with writer/director Aleta Chappelle (who’ll make history as the first Black woman to direct a film version of the story).  Indiewire posted  the film’s  synopsis:

"after a gallant military victory, General Macbett (Wipes) encounters the “Weird Sisters,” who are the spirit daughters of Mother Africa and reign over fire, water, earth and sky. They delight in manipulating Macbett by feeding him predictions of royal titles including “King.” Macbett soon becomes obsessed with ambition, as does his beautiful and ruthless wife Lady Macbett (Lathan) .

"As Macbett and his Lady spiral downward, indulging in treachery and political assassinations, they are soon haunted by their murderous deeds and driven mad. In a true exemplification of a tragedy, Macbett is defeated by his own zealous thirst for power, a heartbreaking end to a once beloved Hero".

And in other news, Sanaa and Terrence will hopefully reprise their memorable role in The Best Man sequel called Best Man Holiday coming soon.

CHANGE UP: Willow Smith WILL NOT Play Annie In The Movie Remake

photo WillowSmithWillowSmithrocksspikyhairSzx39f19X07l_zps57731d85.jpg

So much for Willow Smith whipping her hair in the big remake from her parents’ and Jay-Z‘s production companies.  She’s OUT of the upcoming "Annie" movie.  Deets inside…

The "Annie" remake via Sony Pictures just nabbed a director.  And it’s Friends With Benefits & Easy A director Will Gluck.  So now that the film is full speed ahead with a Fall 2014 release….Willow has now outgrown the role.  Pre-production began three years ago when she was 9 (the age of Annie).  But now that she’s 12, she’s too old for the role.

Willow’s parents Will & Jada Smith, are still producing the film via their company Overbrook Entertainment.  And they’ve teamed up with Jay-Z on the project.  Mr. Carter stated, according to Deadline:

“For Marcy Media’s first foray into film, we couldn’t ask for better partners and mentors than Overbrook Entertainment. We are excited to work with Will Gluck and Sony Pictures Entertainment. My well-known affinity for the classic ‘Hard Knock Life’ makes Annie a natural vehicle to lead us into the world of the cinema.”

The film starts shooting this fall.  Now, who should play that lead role?

Will and Jaden Smith have re-teamed as father/son characters in the new futuristic thriller After Earth. Watch the preview inside….

Will and Jaden Smith (who first played father and son in Pursuit of Happyness) have teamed up again for the upcoming thriller After Earth. Directed by M. Night Shyamalan, After Earth takes place on "Earth," but more than 1000 years into the future.

Will and his youngest son play Cypher and Kitai Raige, soldiers who have crash landed on the abandoned planet and must figure out a way to survival. Here’s the catch: everything left on "Earth" has evolved to kill humans.

And with Will’s "Cypher" character injured, Jaden’s "Kitai" must step up to the plate as a soldier and find their rescue beacon. The film will also explore father/son dynamics and Kitai’s need to be validated by his father.

The film hits theaters June 2013.
