Sigourney Weaver in You Again and Paul

In a story from Variety, Sigourney Weaver will be starring in Disney's You Again. In addition to this, the actress is currently circling Greg Mottola's comedy Paul for Universal and Working Title Pictures.

Paul stars Simon Pegg and Nick Frost as two sci-fi fanatics on a road trip whose conspiracy dreams come true when they encounter an escaped alien near Area 51. As they try to reunite him with his mother ship, they find Paul has many more opinions than your typical ET.

Weaver plans to shoot her highly secretive role in this film first.

After this, she will join the shoot of You Again which stars Kristen Bell and is directed by Andy Fickman. Bell plays a girl who is horrified to find that her brother is marrying the very girl who made her life a living hell in high school. Weaver will be the bride's very wealthy aunt.

Jonny Quest is Zac Efron. So says the Rock

Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, “Race to Witch Mountain” director Andy Fickman, Zac Efron are teaming up for a feature film version of the cartoon classic The Adventures of Jonny Quest

The animated series (first aired in the 60s) told of a boy, 11-year-old Jonny, who accompanies his father, Dr. Benton Quest, on extraordinary adventures. Fearing Jonny could end up in the wrong hands, a special agent / bodyguard / pilot from Intelligence One Government, Race Bannon, is hired to guard and train him.

Zac Efron could possibly play the title role, with Dwayne Johnson as his Race Bannon.

‘’ I love the script, I love working with Andy...’’, Johnson tells Moviehole. “I don't know if you've read the latest [draft] but it's awesome and it's badass and I haven't read, this is what I told everyone over at Warner Bros., and I love the studio too by the way, you know, I had my experience with them with Get Smart and they were great, I hadn't read an action script like that in a LONG time. And that action was unbelievable. That will happen.’’

Johnson confirms that he’ll be Race Bannon, and that rumours suggesting Zac Efron might be Jonny Quest are on the money. Efron isn’t a lock though – and Johnson’s all ears. You see, in the source material the character is only twelve years old, but Efron’s 17. ‘’I loved Jonny Quest when I was a kid. If you go a little older, it gives you more, it allows you to be...it just gives you a bit more, you know. But then you want to honor it too, so... “

What do you reckon? Will that cast work in a Jonny Quest film? Have the Venture Brothers destroyed Johnny's chances?
