With 'Our Family Wedding' currently out in theaters, Oscar winner Forest Whitaker is switching gears and going from being in a romantic comedy to starring in a futuristic action-thriller with Jude Law in 'Repo Men.'

Humans have extended and improved our lives through highly sophisticated and expensive mechanical organs created by a company called The Union. The dark side of these medical breakthroughs is that if you don't pay your bill, The Union sends its highly skilled repo men to take back its property... with no concern for your comfort or survival.

Law plays Remy, one of the best organ repo men in the business. But when he suffers a cardiac failure on the job, he awakens to find himself fitted with the company's top-of-the-line heart-replacement... as well as a hefty debt. But a side effect of the procedure is that his heart's no longer in the job. When he can't make the payments, The Union sends its toughest enforcer, Remy's former partner Jake (played by Whitaker), to track him down.

Jennifer Aniston stars in the romantic comedy, 'The Bounty Hunter.'

Directed by Andy Tennant ('Hitch'), the film also star Gerard Butler, Jason Sudeikis, Dorian Missick, Joel Marsh Garland, and Christine Baranski.

Milo Boyd (played by Butler), a down-on-his-luck bounty hunter, gets his dream job when he is assigned to track down his bail-jumping ex-wife, reporter Nicole Hurly (played by Aniston). He thinks all that's ahead is an easy payday, but when Nicole gives him the slip so she can chase a lead on a murder cover-up, Milo realizes that nothing ever goes simply with him and Nicole. The exes continually one-up each other – until they find themselves on the run for their lives. They thought their promise to love, honor and obey was tough – staying alive is going to be a whole lot tougher.

After numerous actors auditioned for the role, 'Precious' director Lee Daniels has gone overseas and cast British actor David Oyelowo to play Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. in his upcoming film, 'Selma.'

The Hollywood Reporter states that Hugh Jackman is on board as a racist sheriff in the tale revolving around the historic marches staged by King in 1965 in Selma, Alabama. The part of Alabama Governor George Wallace remains up for grabs. It was reported earlier that Robert De Niro was to play the role, but that doesn't seem to be the case yet.

Recently at the South by Southwest Film Festival in Austin, Texas, producer/ writer Robert Rodriguez showed a peek to his latest film, 'Predators.'

Directed by Nimrod Antal, the film stars Adrien Brody, Laurence Fishburne, Topher Grace, Alice Braga, Danny Trejo, Walton Goggins, Oleg Taktarov, Mahershalalhashbaz Ali, and Louiz Ozawa.

A bold new chapter in the Predator universe, 'Predators' was shot on location under Rodriguez's creative auspices at the filmmaker's Austin-based Troublemaker Studios.

Adrien Brody stars as Royce, a mercenary who reluctantly leads a group of elite warriors who come to realize they've been brought together on an alien planet... as prey. With the exception of a disgraced physician, they are all cold-blooded killers – mercenaries, Yakuza, convicts, death squad members – human "predators" that are now being systemically hunted and eliminated by a new breed of alien Predators.

Directed by Sanaa Hamri ('Something New') and written by Michael Elliot ('Brown Sugar'), 'Just Wright' stars Queen Latifah as Leslie Wright, a straight-shooting physical therapist who gets the gig of a lifetime working with NBA All-Star Scott McKnight (played by Common).

All is going well until Leslie finds herself falling for Scott, forcing her to choose between the gig of a lifetime and the tug-of-war inside her heart. Oblivious to her romantic overtures, McKnight is instead drawn to the affections of Leslie's gorgeous childhood friend Morgan (played by Paula Patton), who has her sights set on being an NBA trophy wife. Is Leslie destined to play the role of "best friend" forever or will Scott finally see that what he always wanted is right in front of him?

Set against the exciting world of championship basketball, the game of love takes on the battle of the sexes in the romantic sports comedy 'Just Wright', starring three of Hollywood's most charismatic personalities as they navigate the full-court-press of love.

While Oscar winner Forest Whitaker attempts to reinvent himself with each different film, comedy doesn't seem to be his his forte.

His latest film, 'Our Family Wedding,' which also stars Regina King, America Ferrera, Lance Gross, and Carlos Mencia, is filled with clichés from familiar films such as 'Guess Who?,' which starred Bernie Mac, Ashton Kutcher and Zoe Saldana, and 'Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?,' with Sidney Poitier. While 'Dinner' was a groundbreaking film, this film is not as funny as the Mac film, long in the tooth, and very predictable from start to finish.

Directed by Rick Famuyiwa and set in Los Angeles, Lucia Ramirez (played by Ferrera) and Marcus Boyd (played by Gross) are returning home from Columbia University and figuring out ways to not only tell their parents of their relationship, but also mention that they are engaged, and want to get married as quick as possible.

For actors like Nicoye Banks, landing parts in big screen films is always a blessing. But to have two different, high profile films out in the same time period -- for different audiences-- is amazing.

The New Orleans native, whose previous films include 'G' with Blair Underwood, and 'Invincible' with Mark Walhberg, is currently in theaters with 'Brooklyn's Finest' opposite Wesley Snipes and Don Cheadle and will be featured opposite Matt Damon in 'The Green Zone.'

Directed by Paul Greengrass, the film centers on a U.S. Army officer (played by Damon), who upon discovering covert and faulty intelligence, goes rogue as he hunts for Weapons of Mass Destruction in an unstable region. Banks is an soldier in Damon's unit.
