http://www.comingsoon.net Do you know what's coming? en-us Universal Pictures has been having a really good year and that's now showing by their willingness to jump in and save projects from other studios like the recent Dumb and Dumber sequel. That said, they're also looking ahead to new franchises and according to The Hollywood Reporter , they've now optioned the rights to Joe Hill's highly popular supernatural comic book series Locke & Key , published by IDW Publishing. http://www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=105653 FX has closed a 10/90 deal with Lionsgate Television and Lionsgate’s Debmar-Mercury for the new untitled sitcom starring Martin Lawrence and Kelsey Grammer, it was announced today by Chuck Saftler, President of Program Strategy and COO, FX Networks. http://www.comingsoon.net/news/tvnews.php?id=105652 This was expected after the Microsoft's disappointing E3 presentation for the Xbox One.

With almost all of the country's schools out of session and the 4th of July weekend just a couple weeks away and the heat and humidity starting to rise, moviegoing should be at a premium over the next few weeks. The terrific success of Man of Steel and This is the End this past weekend is a good sign that the box office is recovering well after being down for so much of the year leading up to May and this Friday, Man of Steel is joined by two very different, strong releases including the latest from the popular Disney•Pixar and the first true action movie from Brad Pitt in many years. http://www.comingsoon.net/news/weekendwarriornews.php?id=105629 Universal Pictures and Focus Features today announced that Sam Taylor-Johnson will direct the film adaptation of Fifty Shades of Grey .
