Synopsis: Over the course of a single day, Monsieur Oscar travels by limousine around Paris to a series of nine appointments, transforming into new characters at each stop.

"With the recent Academy Award nomination and critical acclaim, Quvenzhané Wallis is a true star and we believe her portrayal as Annie will make her a true worldwide star. She is an extraordinary young talent with an amazing range, not only as an actress but as a singer and dancer, and we can't wait for audiences to further discover her.".Wallis has replaced Willow Smith, Will Smith's daughter, in the lead role. The movie, set for release during the holiday season in 2014, tells the story of young girl who runs away from an orphanage run by an evil owner and begins a search for her parents. The musical includes the popular songs "Tomorrow" and "It's the Hard-Knock Life". Quvenzhané Wallis will next star in director Steve McQueen's "Twelve Years a Slave", alongside Brad Pitt and Michael Fassbender.
The Academy must have had a very hard time choosing winners, so the awards were pretty much evenly split among each of the major films. "Argo" took home 3 awards for Best Picture, Adapted Screenplay and Editing, but it was "Life of Pi" who scored the most wins with 4 trophies for Best Director (Ang Lee), Cinematography, Original Score and Visual Effects.
Megan Fox and Michael Bay seem to have resolved their past conflicts and will reunite for the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" reboot that Bay is producing. Fox will be playing April O'Neill, the "intrepid reporter and good-natured friend to reptiles". The movie will be directed by Jonathan Liebesman ("Battle Los Angeles") and is conceived as a mix of live-action and CG motion capture. Also, the title will no longer contain the words "teenage" and "mutant", so the movie is simply called "Ninja Turtles". Bay also generated quite an upset last year when it was announced that aliens will be involved in the creation of the turtles. According to IMDb, this is the synopsis:
"Aliens invade Earth and inadvertently spawn a quartet of mutated reptile warriors, the Ninja Turtles, who rise up against them to defend the world."This is definitely not the Ninja Turtles I remember. The release date has also been changed to May 16, 2014 due to script delays.
