Michael Cera: Hollywood's hottest awkward teen
One thing the modest, soft-spoken Cera does not pine for is celebrity, but he's got it anyway. As Hollywood's favorite awkward teen, Cera has just turned 20 with an enviable list of hits and critical favorites behind him. www.cnn.com   

Michael Cera's turning geekdom into gold
Move over dark-haired dreamboats - these days Hollywood is all about revenge of the nerds. And right now, Michael Cera is the awkward teen of the moment. Thanks to back-to-back critical successes, "Superbad" and "Juno," which grossed over $100 million each, Cera is now at the center of the Hollywood limelight - and on plenty of dorm room posters too. PHOTOS: Cera'S "INFINITE" CAREER In his newest film, "Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist," which opened this past weekend at the number 3 slot, Cera once ag

First Look: Michael Cera’s Youth in Revolt
FSR reader of the day (sorry everyone else, he sent us the most fun stuff today) Christopher M. hit us with a first look set of photos for Lesbian Vampire Killers earlier, satisfying the blood and bondage thirsty masses of our core audience.

Michael Cera: when geeks get the girl
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - In a little more than a year, Michael Cera has built a movie career and loyal fan base playing geeky high school heroes -- zits and all -- who somehow get the girls. So it must feel good, being a sexy leading man in Hollywood -- especially when you're really kind of geeky. "It feels like acting," deadpans Cera, and somehow his answer seems appropriate.

Michael Cera Set For Sundance Splash?
Michael Cera’s rising star just won’t stop. After hits like Superbad, Juno and Nick and Norah the Canadian actor is creating buzz again with a semi-secret comedy called Paper Hearts. Cera stars alongside real-life girlfriend Charlyne Yi (aka the stoner chick from Knocked Up) in the indie flick described as part-documentary, part scripted comedy about their real-life relationship. Why so much talk? According to the Hollywood Reporter this could be the sleeper hit of Sundance 2009

Review: “Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist”
Based on the novel by Rachel Cohn and David Levithan. The plot: Nick (Cera) and Norah (Dennings) spend an incredible chaotic but eventually magical night in New York City. Our thoughts: Peter Sollett’s “Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist” has enough rhythm to maintain the audience’s attention for 90 minutes, but the film definitely lacks the surprise factor we’ve come to appreciate in this new genre of teenage comedies. It’s a shame, really, because the movie holds plenty of unexploited po

The Music of Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist
Perhaps I'm stating the obvious, but the best soundtracks always take on the character of the movie they accompany, and vice versa, and that's certainly the case with Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist. The film, which follows the bridge-and-tunnel protagonists Nick (Michael Cera) and Norah (Kat Dennings) on a night of hijinks through the streets of Brooklyn and Manhattan, is packed full of blink-and-you-miss-it hipster cameos from current faves Andy Samberg, Seth Myers, John Cho and Kevin Corrigan.

An Arbitrary Guide To This Weekend’s New Releases
If you’ve found yourself skimming the movie listings these past few weeks to no avail, well, get ready, because there’s a whole lot of new blood coming in. This weekend sees 7, that’s right, 7 wide releases, which is sure to result in a major shakeup in the weekend Top Ten and give holdovers just hanging in there on the bottom 5 some serious reason to be worried. Depressingly, Beverly Hills Chihuahua is likely to snag the #1 spot - because if there’s one thing we’ve learned it’s that idiots (an

Michael Cera Making the Documentary No One Asked For
Are you guys psyched about Paper Hearts, the new sem-autobiographical documentary about Juno star Michael Cera and his Asian girlfriend Charlyne Yi? No? Perhaps that's because you haven't heard of the feature, which is being kept semi-secret in Hollywood, despite strong interest from investors hoping to cash in Cera's star before he starts growing hair in weird places and becomes unmarketable to the tween demographic. And while we want to have high hopes for the film, which will premiere at

Jeffrey Tambor On “Arrested Development” Movie: “It’s a Go.”
Last winter, Jeffrey Tambor, the actor who played the scheming patriarch in Fox’s brilliant, underwatched and now-cancelled Arrested Development appeared on The Ron & Fez Show on XM radio, saying that there was a “real push” to get a movie version of the TV series made. Then this summer, lead actor Jason Bateman also seemed to confirmed that the wheels were in motion for the a film version of Arrested. A hefty container of water was thrown on the fire last month when Michael Cera disav

"Lipstick's" Mating Game
Ever since "Lipstick Jungle" was relegated to Friday nights I have been letting it gather dust on my DVR -- something NBC probably assumed would happen once they banished it to no ma'ams land -- but I finally caught up on the three episodes I was missing and couldn't help but notice a very striking similarity. Sure, Wendy is (loosely) based on Paramount president Sherry Lansing and I think Victory is modeled on Marchesa founder Georgina Chapman (complete with billionaire "benefactor" -- Joe Bennett is tot

Dr. Venkman Reviews: Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist
You know what? You may not believe me when I say this, but this is one of my favorite movies of the year. Not only one of my favorite but one of the best made. As much as I liked Juno, I liked ‘Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist’ even more. You may think I’m nuts for saying that, but I was able to connect with the characters and story in this film better. I honestly remember having nights like the one these characters had. Pulling all nighters not knowing where the night will take you.

Which 'Arrested Development' Star Is Ready To Ditch Michael Cera? [Defamer Blind Items]
E!'s Kristin Dos Santos brings us more news on the suddenly snowballing Arrested Development movie, including the new information that the film is budgeted at $15 million (around what we'd estimate the theatrical ceiling is for this property, though homevid sales should be killer). However, her most interesting tidbit, divulged to her by a principal cast member wishing to remain anonymous, is what the reaction is to someone (cough Michael Cera cough) who's not so keen on the big screen transfer: "

FINALLY! ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT THE MOVIE & LARK’s JASON BATEMAN MOMENT
Arrested Development is hands down the best show to ever appear on your TV screen. The trials and tribulations of the Bluth family are epically good, the writing is stellar and the acting perfect. If you are a fan of this show, then you can debate for hours with people over which episode is best: When Buster gets his hand eaten by a seal,  Tobias as never-nude, when Ben Stiller guest stars as a magician as Job tries to get back into the Alliance or really any show involving the bannana stand.
