The Original Vader Is Back
David Prowse, who played Darth Vader in every scene except the one where they took off the mask has stated that he will be back for EPISODE III. This, along with the previous rumor that James Earl Jones has already signed to do a few lines, certainly seems to point to the appearance of a full costumed Vader in the film. If memory serves, however, Prowse had just had hip surgery as of Celebration II back in May, and was still walking with a cane. It’s possible that what we will see of Vader will be just at the very end.

Shrek Gains A Python
For the in progress SHREK sequel it looks like we’re at least going to get to meet Princess Fiona’s father. Maybe we’ll even find out how she got stuck in that tower to begin with. So who shall be voicing the good king? Why it’s Monty Python’s John Cleese of course! I wonder if they’ll mention how silly Camelot is?

‘Underdog’ a New Pet Project
Spyglass Entertainment, the Disney-based producer of “The Sixth Sense,” has nabbed the feature film rights to the 1960s cartoon series “Underdog.”
A broad comedy that parodies the superhero genre, “Underdog” is the story of an inept watchdog transformed into a superhero after being accidentally exposed to an experimental elixir. The live-action feature will boast CGI elements.
The animated TV series, which first debuted in 1964 on NBC, sees Underdog called into action by his would-be girlfriend, ace news reporter Sweet Polly Purebred. The anti-hero subsequently learns to thwart the evil plans of unsavory characters such as underworld uber boss Riff Raff.
Spyglass paid rights holder Classic Media a mid-six-figure sum, with the final payout rising to more than $2 million if the film is produced.
