Mark Wahlberg for 'Virulents' Adaptation?
It was announced last August that John Moore would be bringing Virgin Comics' Virulents to the big screen. This weekend he told MTV he wants a Wahlberg to star. "Mark [Wahlberg]. We had a hell of a time on Max Payne. I think hes an actor of unlimited potential and Id just love to go around with him again. [But] were not in control of these things lots of big people with big checkbooks get to do that. If its going to happen, then the karma makes it happen. The story revolves around a ragtag group of soldiers who search for a lost patrol in Afghanistan. The soldiers, some from an American military unit, some from an Indian military unit, stumble into a nest of vampire zombies.

Burlesque beauty Dita presents her glam new lingerie range
She's been hailed as leading the revival of Forties-style glamour. Now burlesque dancer Dita Von Teese has channelled her unique style into a lingerie selection.
The porcelain-skinned beauty, famed for her seductive striptease routines, stars in the new campaign for the retro line she has created for Wonderbra. The three ranges are named Multi-Teese, Spot-Teese and Satin-Teese.
A limited edition, the collection goes on sale in Europe on September 23 and is inspired by popular designs of the post-war era.
Bunny Hop
Hugh Hefner -- whose acting career stretches back at least as far as playing the manager of a Playboy Club in a 1965 episode of "Burke's Law'' -- has perhaps his most substantial big-screen role yet in "The House Bunny,'' opening tomorrow. He has five scenes in a supporting role as "himself'' -- showing off a wide range of emotions -- in this Anna Faris comedy about an exiled resident of the Playboy Mansion who helps empower a bunch of nerdy sororiety girls she turns into hotties. Earlier this season, Hef had a more traditionally brief cameo as himself in "Iron Man'' opposite Robert Downey Jr., who is set to play Hefner in an upcoming biopic. By the way, it's worth noting that "The House Bunny'' bears more a slight resemblance to another Columbia Pictures comedy from three years ago, "Man of the House,'' which revolved around a Texas Ranger who serves as House Father for a group of sororiety girls. That one starred Tommy Lee Jones, who doubtless used his salary to help finish "The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada.''

Madonna fans – get ready to party! As her countdown to her Sticky & Sweet tour begins, the Queen of Pop is preparing to take fans on a "rock-driven, dancetastic journey," her Web site reported Wednesday. The singer – who turned 50 earlier this week – reveals that her two-hour show will be broken into four sections: 1920's “gangsta pimp,” old-school New York club, gyspy (described as a "VIP trip to 'La Isla Bonita' infused by the spirit of Romanian folk music”) and far-eastern inspired rave. After a grueling 653 hours of rehearsal, the tour kicks off in Cardiff, Wales on Saturday. Each performance will include
