MAN OF STEELDigital Spy spoke with "Dark Knight Rises" director and "Man of Steel" producer Christopher Nolan about the upcoming Superman reboot and star Henry Cavill's portrayal of the Man of Steel.

"I don't want to say too much about it because they're a long way out," Nolan told Digital Spy. "They're at the beginning of the process, really. It doesn't come out for another year. But I think what Zack [Snyder] and Henry [Cavill] are doing with the character is going to make a remarkable impression."

THOR: THE DARK WORLDTom Hiddleston spoke to Total Film after winning the Total Film Hotlist Award for Hottest Actor, teasing a bit of what to expect from Loki in "Thor: The Dark World" next year.

"I don't want to give too much away," Hiddleston told Total Film. "But I can guarantee that you won't be disappointed. Alan Taylor's vision of Thor 2 is utterly brilliant. The journey continues in the most epic dimension and proportion imaginable. It's very, very exciting."

Comic Book Movie has posted a report from Icelandic website Svarthofdi that states principal photography for the "Thor" sequel will take place partly in Iceland. It's just a rumor at this point, but with "Game of Thrones" director Alan Taylor at the helm, it would certainly make a bit of sense. "Game of Thrones" has filmed scenes in the country and a return for Taylor may not be out of the question.

THE AVENGERSWell, not really about "The Avengers," but about the special edition collector's version of the Marvel Phase One box set. Luggage company Rimowa is suing Marvel over the design of its "Marvel Cinematic Universe: Phase One - Avengers Assembled" box set packaging." A complaint from the company states, "Images of the replica briefcase on Marvel's advertising materials, and fan video from Marvel's product display at this year's Comic-Con convention, show the plastic 'replica case' to be a close copy of Rimowa's Topas attache case in every respect but quality -- from the proportions and coloring, to the style of the handle and latches, and, of course, in the use of the trademarked parallel ridges around the body of the case."

SIN CITY: A DAME TO KILL FORIt's rare that an actor not being involved in a film is news, but while speaking with MTV, actor Michael Madsen (who played Bob in the original "Sin City") stated he hasn't heard a thing about returning for the announced "Sin City" sequel, despite reports to the contrary.

"Well that's kind of a mystery because there's a whole bunch of stuff all over the internet that I'm doing a sequel and I certainly didn't put that stuff on there, so I don't know who did," Madsen told MTV. "But, wherever that came from, whoever generated that information, must be thinking that I'm doing that -- but I can't seem to get an answer out of anybody."

Madsen further stated he hasn't been able to get a hold of director Robert Rodriguez. Furthermore, "Sin City" producer Harvey Weinstein isn't involved in the sequel.

"If the Weinstein's aren't doing 'Sin City' then I don't know who is and whoever it is they have been not very clear about it," Madsen said. "I mean I've heard everybody, every name on the roster that's supposed be in the thing, even Mickey, he's a friend of mine... I mean I just don't know. It's odd that I can't seem to get an answer out of anybody. Nobody seems to know."
