The cast of Mission Impossible III (left to right), Maggie Q, Laurence Fishburne, Michelle Monaghan, director JJ Abrams, Keri Russell, Jonathan Rhys-Meyers, Phillip Seymor Hoffman, posed in Rome, Italy for a group photo in front of the ancient Coliseum during the world premiere of MI-3 this morning at the Palazzo Colonna. They all attended a photo call and press conference later on in the day. Tom Cruise missed this group photo, but was at the press conference. I don’t recognize the person on the end. Perhaps someone could leave a comment if they know this person’s name.

Lots more pictures in the gallery.

Movie star Tom Cruise was in Rome, Italy to promote his latest blockbuster on Monday, but his main mission was to rush back home to his bride-to-be Katie Holmes and baby daughter and resume diaper duties. The 43-year-old told a news conference in Rome ahead of the world premiere of “Mission: Impossible III” that he would cut short the European promotional tour, which was also to have taken in Paris where he and Holmes were engaged 10 months ago. “It was everything that we wanted it to be and more,” Cruise said of the birth last week of Suri. “It was really very spiritual.” The Hollywood A-lister suggested that he wasn’t afraid to get his hands dirty. “I changed her first,” he said. “I change diapers all the time. I have to tell you I love it. We have a whole system worked out. It’s the ‘B and B’ – she does the breast feeding and I do the burping and changing the diapers. It’s teamwork. It’s fun.”

Ice Age: The Meltdown put the deep freeze on the multiplex competition by sweeping up a truly mammoth $70.5 million over the weekend.

Naughty girl Sharon Stone’s movie Basic Instinct 2 managed a measley $3.2 million from Friday to Sunday. I guess seeing Sharon naked wasn’t as good as seeing Animals in an animated movie. Note to Sharon, you’re old now, time to stop trying to use sex to sell movies, and start applying your acting skills to make better movies.

What do you do when you have a hit show on Television that runs for more than a decade? You make a movie. “The Simpsons” has come of age.

“The Simpsons” has been on television since late 1989. It started as a segment of Fox’s “The Tracey Ullman Show” in 1987-88.

20th Century Fox’s latest animated film “Ice Age: The Meltdown” showed a teaser clip of “The Simpsons” movie, and the release date as July 27, 2007.

So what was in the teaser clip? You’ll have to see “Ice Age: The Meltdown” or wait for the trailer to hit the web.
