Leonardo DiCaprio, who picks his
projects very carefully, has had his
next projec t , "Legacy of Secrecy,"
picked out for him by his father,
George• Leo and his dad will produce
the film, which asserts that Mafia
kingpin Carlos Marcello, who died in
1993, orchestrated the assassination
of President John F, Kennedy. The
film is planned for a 2013 release to
coincide with the 50th anniversary of
Kennedy's death.
Now that TV is lousy with so many
reality shows, we have to go to our
local multiplex theaters to escape• It
seems movie thoguls have decided
the perfect escape from reality are
superheroes. Here is a partial list of
the superheroes who will be coming
our way:
You can expect "The Green Hornet"
with Seth Rogan in the title role, aided
and abetted by Cameron Diaz and this
year's best supporting Oscar winner,
Christopher Waltz, on Jan. 14, 2011.
"Thor" will be arriving on May
6, 2011, starring Chris Hemsworth,
(brother of Liam Hemsworth of "The
Last Song," who may or may not
be dating his co-star Miley Cyrus).
"Thor" does, however, have Oscar
winner Anthony Hopkins and "Star
Wars" Princess Amidala (Natalie
Portman) going for it.
Ryan Reynolds, People Magazine's
"Sexiest Man Alive", will hit screens
June 17, 2011, as "The Green Lantern,"
with "Gossip Girl" Blake Lively and
Peter Sarsgaard backing him up.
On July 22, 2011, you'll see the
return of "Captain America: First
Avenger" with Chris Evans (who has
heavily beefed up for the title role),
along with Oscar winner Tommy Lee
Jones and Oscar nominees Samuel L.
Jackson and Stanley Tucci lending
ample support.
Then in July 2012, "The Dark Knight
Rises" will bring back Christian Bale
as Batman with Oscar winners Mi-
chael Caine and Morgan Freeman, as
well as Gary Oldman, reprising their
characters from the original film.
Of course, no superhero list would
be complete without "Superman: Man
of Steel," which is scheduled for re-
lease December 2012. While it does
have a budget of $250 million, it does
not have someone to play the Man of
Steel. Some fans have been online
requesting producers cast Brandon
Rough, who was the previous Super-
man, while others think "True Blood"
star Joe Manganiello or "90210" and
"The Bold and The Beautiful" star
Adam Gregory, last seen in "Hanna
I lontana. T_heMovle and 1-7Azam 1: ,RClffl-:itl..l,,-w

• the looks -- and after all, what was ancient Ro- bO/IHti
Christopher Reeve before "Super- man aque-
man"? ... A soap star!
One Last Note: Also for December
2012 release, our king of remakes,
Johnny Depp, and producer Jerry
Bruckheimer have decided to remake
"The Lone Ranger." But here's the
twist ... Depp wants to play Tonto,
his faithful Indian companion!

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Handle
a potentially awkward situation by
warming up your confidence reserves
and letting it radiate freely. Also, ex-
pect an old friend to contact you.
TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) It's
not too early for the practical Bovine
to begin planning possible changes for
2011. A recent contact can offer some
interesting insights.
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)A request
for an unusual favor should be care-
fully checked out. Also check the mo-
tives behind it. Your generosity should
be respected, not exploited.
CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Party
time beckons, but for some Moon
Children, so do some workplace chal-
lenges. Deal with the second first, then
you'll be free to enjoy the fun time.
LEO (July 23 to August 22) A warm
response to an earlier request might be
a positive indicator of what's ahead•
Meanwhile, Cupid could pay a surprise
visit to single Leos looking for love.
VIRGO (August 23 to September 22)
How you respond to a proposed change
in a project could affect your situation.
Be prepared to show how well you
would be able to deal with it.
LIBRA (September 23 to October 22)
The revelation of a secret could cause
some changes in how to deal with a
workplace matter. It very likely also
validates a position you have long

SCORPIO (October 23 to November
21) An attempt to get too personal
could upset the very private Scorpio.
Make it clear that there's a line no one
crosses without your permission.

December 21) The savvy Sagittar-
ian might be able to keep a family
disagreement from spilling over by
getting everyone involved to talk
things out.
CAPRICORN (December 22 to Janu-
ary 19) Be careful not to push people
too hard to meet your ideas of what the
holiday weekend's preparations should
be. Best to make it a cooperative, not
a coerced, effort.
AQUARIUS (January 20 to February
18) An unexpected request could make
you rethink a position you've had for
a long time. Meanwhile, plan a family
get-together for the weekend•
PISCES (February 19 to March 20)
Someone might find that it was a fluke
to try to use your sympathetic nature to
get you to accept a situation you're not
comfortable with. Good for you.

lenges that are both mental and physi-
cal, and you enjoy always beating your
personal best.
