With the Sinister sequel slated to start next week, it's about time for Focus Features to start coughing up details regarding the storyline and who's going to star -- which they've just done, announcing that Shannyn Sossamon has signed on to do a whole bunch of screaming as the mother of 9-year-old twins who unwittingly moves her brood into (whoops!) "a rural house marked for death." Sossamon will be joined by James Ransone, who Sinister fans may remember from the first installment as a well-meaning police officer; he'll return to reprise his role.

Jason Blum has become the most prolific mogul of modern Holllywood, and now he’s branching into television. He was on a panel for his upcoming Syfy show Ascension for the Television Critics Association this week, and after his panel he spoke with reporters about his movie projects. Perhaps the most highly anticipated among ‘80s kids is the live-action Jem and the Holograms movie.
