There’s A CAPTAIN PLANET Movie In The Works – Big 6 Morning Report
- For 90s kids, you’ll never forget where you were when you heard this news: Captain Planet and the Planeteers is being made into a feature film.

- Terminator 5 now has a release date: June 26, 2015 (making it part of what will likely be the greatest summer movie season ever). Not only that, but it’s going to be the first movie in a stand-alone trilogy. (AICN)
- Netflix must really like Orange is the New Black. The streaming TV company has already renewed the show for a second season, even before its July debut. (THR)
- Django co-stars Jamie Foxx and Leonardo DiCaprio are re-teaming for WB’s adaptation of Craig Zahler’s Mean Business On North Ganson Street. (Deadline)
- Apparently directing that short film knocked some sense into James Franco‘s crazy noggin. He’s abandoning his directorial effort Garden of Last Days. (HitFix)
- Sign of the times: American icon Superman couldn’t hold of local film Tiny Times at the Chinese box office as Man of Steel drops to No. 2. (THR)
