The Rundown: Casting news, a new ‘Avengers’ pic, Wilco, and Goldeneye Re-Reloaded

News Crumbs: Stop me if you’ve heard this one: Jesus, The Terminator, and Rambo walk into a prison…

AICN is reporting that Jim Caviezel will team up with Sly Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger (totally red-squiggled on that one initially) for the prison-based action film The Tomb, according to producer Mark Canton. No word on who the on-staff Geriatrician will be.

Best News of the Day: Brit punk rocker Billy Bragg is teaming up with Wilco for Mermaid Avenue Volume III, 12 years after Volume II was released. Previous team-ups have resulted in some pretty fantastic tracks, including “California Stars” and one of my personal favorites, “Blood of the Lamb”.

Separately Bragg is known for “A New England” and “Must I Paint You a Picture” as well as countless pro-worker anthems. Wilco is known for Yankee Hotel Foxtrot and being fucking awesome.

Hat Tip of the Day: A tie, between Badass Digest’s Dark Darkwing Duck find and THR’s TV pilot tracker, which is the ultimate resource for all those who want to track the numerous shows that will fall to the earth like a flame-covered butterfly. Remember, Work It survived the pilot process last year, which means ABC favored it above many other shows. (Gasp!)

Fun with pictures:  

Forgetting that they look like cosplayers for a moment, here’s a pic of Captain America, Hawkeye, and Black Widow taken from an upcoming Empire Magazine spread.

The Art of Movement: I was addicted to Goldeneye 64 once upon a time, and I mean I was surgical with that shit, so this video tickles me more than most, unless you were, of course, similarly afflicted. Hat tip to Bleeding Cool for posting it first.
