There is now a release date in the US for one of Brittany’s new films, “The Expendables”… April 23, 2010 has been set to be the theatrical release date of this Lionsgate movie in North America.
You can visit Ace Showbiz to see a behind-the-scenes clip from the set.
Brittany is currently in Oregon filming a new film called “Something Wicked”. Her character is named Susan and is a psychiatrist… No word on the release date for the film, but you can view the film’s website at MerchantFilms.com.
“Something Wicked” is a current day action thriller set in a mid-size American community (Eugene, Oregon) in the Pacific Northwest. Christine and her boyfriend James have just graduated from Highland High School and are looking forward to enjoying their future together. Everything appears to be going well until Christine and James realize that she is being stalked by a psychologically tormented and obsessed young man, who in the end, will stop at nothing to be with her.

Brittany is starring in a new TV movie called “Megafault”, which is named as an earthquake disaster flick. The movie is set to do a run on a stilled unnamed TV channel in the US – more information will be posted when I find it! In the meantime, you can click on the thumbnail to the left of this post to see Brittany on the set.
I’m sure you’re all aware of the earthquake disaster flick, “Megafault,” that is filming in the Quad-Cities right now. Well, Major has posted some cool photos from the set of Eriq LaSalle, Bruce Davison, Brittany Murphy and even Davenport’s own Mayor Gluba, who has a cameo. I got to peek in on the filming at the MVRBC last week while I was at a workshop there. Also saw them filming by the River Center over the weekend. Have you run into the film crew? And do you plan to watch this direct-to-cable movie?

The film — which counts Stallone, Jason Statham, Mickey Rourke, Jet Li, Dolph Lundgren and Randy Couture among its cast — follows a team of mercenaries who head to South America on a mission to overthrow a dictator.
Murphy will play Rourke’s girlfriend, a singer. The part calls for her to perform a musical number.
Zayas will play the dictator.
Stallone wrote the screenplay and is directing the film, which began production this week in Brazil. The Nu Image/Millennium Films production also will lens in Louisiana.
Murphy (“Just Married,” “Sin City”) sang in the animated film “Happy Feet” and collaborated with Paul Oakenfold on the single “Faster Kill Pussycat.”

“The Ramen Girl” is going to be released on DVD on May 26, 2009! You can pre-order the DVD at Amazon.com right now. Expect captures from the movie once its released! 
An American slacker (Brittany Murphy, 8 Mile; Girl, Interrupted) abandoned by her boyfriend in Tokyo finds her calling in an unlikely place: a local ramen house run by a tyrannical chef who doesn’t speak of a word of English. Undaunted by the chef’s raging crankiness, Abby convinces him to teach her the art of ramen preparation…and despite hilarious clashes of culture and personality, she learns how to put passion and spirit into her life as well as her cooking.
