'Starship Troopers' Reboot Has Casper Van Dien's Full Support

Even if you apes don't want to live forever, any and all "Starship Troopers" fans have to agree that Johnny Rico is an icon that will never, ever die even if his likeness changes a bit in the coming years. MTV News caught up with "Troopers" veteran Casper Van Dien at the Sundance Film Festival to chat about his new movie, "The Pact." But of course, we can't possibly have a conversation with the head honcho of Rico's Roughnecks and not talk about his endless battle against the bugs. (In case you're curious, the only good bug is still a dead bug.) Last we heard, a "Starship Troopers" reboot was in the works, and one has to wonder whether there's a place for Van Dien in the new vision. Will there be a new Rico? Will Rico even exist in the new film? No matter how it shakes out, Van Dien insists he's just thrilled to see the legacy of "Troopers" live on. "I think [the reboot is] fantastic. I support them," he said. "If they want me in it, I'd be thrilled. If they want to go another way, I'd still be thrilled." Perhaps part of the reason that Van Dien is so optimistic about the "Starship" future is that he's still very much involved in the franchise, even if he's not necessarily the face of it. "I'm executive producing the anime of 'Starship Troopers,' and that was a lot of fun to do," he said. "Just to see that, seeing the Johnny Rico character and how they've developed him I really enjoyed seeing that process. When they asked me to be an executive producer on that, I said yes, absolutely." To this day, Van Dien said he can't go down the street without somebody shouting "Rico's Roughnecks!" Which, in all honesty, is pretty amazing. And we're not the only ones who think so. "I love it," said Van Dien. "I'll always be a part of that." The 2012 Sundance Film Festival is officially under way, and the MTV Movies team is on the ground reporting on the hottest stars and the movies everyone will be talking about in the year to come. Keep it locked with MTV Movies for everything there is to know about Sundance.

Obama from Disney to Harlem

If relations between the entertainment industry and the White House have soured of late over SOPA there was no sign of it Thursday as a muscular day of fundraising swept President Barack Obama from Walt Disney World to Spike Lee's home on Manhattan's Upper East Side to a late night appearance at Harlem's Apollo Theater. India.Arie and Al Green opened for the first sitting president to ever speak at the historic site on West 125th Street. Obama delighted the crowd of about 1,400 - a full house -- with his own rendition of Green's Let's Stay Together and urged them to come out in force for the current campaign with the same passion they had last time around. "I know these have been three tough years," he said. "But real change, big change is hard. It takes more than one term. It takes more than a single president." He ticked off his accomplishments in office and slammed Republicans for pursuing a single goal -- defeating him in November. "We have the top Republican who says his top priority is beating me. My top priority is getting people back to work," he said, invoking Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell oft-quoted desire to make Obama a one-term president. He defended his move to roll back the Bush-era tax cuts "because there are basic investments, basic functions that have to be carried outWe can't go back to this brand of 'you're on your own' economics." The Apollo tickets started at $100, making it of the President's more accessible fundraisers. Earlier in the evening about 40 guests forked out nearly $36,000 each for dinner with Obama hosted by Spike Lee. The director's wife Tonya Lewis Lee acknowledged that Lee has been critical of the President at times. But that's okay, she said, "I'm sure he doesn't like all of Spike's movies." According to reports from a press pool reporter allowed in, Obama recounted that Spike Lee has long been special to him because he took wife Michelle to see "Do The Right Thing" on their first official date. "I was showing my sophistication by taking her to a movie by a hot new director," said the President. "Good thing you didn't choose 'Driving Miss Daisy,'" Spike Lee interjected, cracking himself up, according to the report. He also attended two fund-raisers at the restaurant Daniel on the Upper East Side. About 100 Jewish supporters who paid at least $5,000 each attended the first event, hosted by former NY Mayor Edward Koch. Some 60 supporters were invited to the second at $15,000 a pop. Earlier, at Disney's Magic Kingdom, Obama said he looked forward to meeting Mickey Mouse, a world leader who has bigger ears than his. Contact the Variety newsroom at news@variety.com

Transmedia set to obtain additional credit

GomezTransformers is probably the first franchises to should you prefer a transmedia producer. It needed couple of years for your Producers Guild of America to approve a transmedia credit. couple of years later, it's finally likely to become fixture on film credits.For your creative community, meaning the state title to recognize storytelling that spans film, TV, videogames, comicbooks, toys, the net, mobile -- and new interactive platforms all displayed at CES.Since the PGA started recognizing the role in April 2010, the initial credits have formerly started to appear, with George Stayton acquiring a transmedia producer title on Vital and Hasbro's "Transformers" franchise. The credit's also came out on THQ's "Red-colored-colored Faction" videogame.But 2012 should prove a watershed year, according to veteran transmedia producer Rob Gomez, who's been championing the concept for more than ten years. The Canadian Media Fund will convince add the borrowed funds towards the projects. And "you will notice (another) major studio making board soon,Inch Gomez mentioned.Despite the fact that PGA doesn't have collective settling contracts, Gomez hopes transmedia work may ultimately finish up area of the actual contracts handled through the organization company directors Guild of America, the Authors Guild of America as well as the Screen Stars Guild, with people groups already beginning discussions to consider the borrowed funds, which might internet their people more earnings for multiplatform work.Growing jurisdiction is tricky turf for your guilds -- SAG was unable to influence the companies to include language addressing performance-capture by stars in the last settlement -- but it's a potentially huge area for Hollywood's creatives.Christopher Pfaff, a transmedia consultant who's vice chairman in the PGA's New Media Council, thinks the PGA's support in the credit has stood a profound impact. "It needed us a couple of yrs to obtain the credit passed but doing that woke lots of people up," he added.Pfaff, watching the guild counts over 600 people round the new media council, thinks the amount in recognizing transmedia remains the cratering in the DVD market."The modifications in Digital video disks really resonated for several mainstream PGA people, that are realizing that everything's available if this involves platforms," Pfaff notes. "You'll find an array of options to improve the narrative -- as well as the conversations are really happening at the very first day. They've seen people like James Cameron and J.J. Abrams using multiple entry ways into tales."Pfaff highlights the PGA's New Media Council already features a working relationship while using WGA East and predictions another guilds may decide to seriously board. "It's inevitable their people will probably awaken and say 'I desire to be employed in transmedia.'"Transmedia's no abstract notion for Gomez, who sits on PGA's New Media Council which is a co-founding father of transmedia developer Starlight Runner Entertainment, which has done large multiplatform projects for instance "Avatar," "Tron Legacy," the second and third "Pirates in the Caribbean" films and "Transformers."He thinks the majors have started to know their approach to transmedia should be less reactive."Transmedia is a factor the art galleries are actually trying to complete whenever a movie hits large, therefore it features a inclination to repeat itself," he noted, stating the hurry to create a game title title with various film this can be a watered lower copy from the pic's plot.That's starting to alter, Gomez thinks, adopting Warner Bros.' approach to its Batman films and games."What's really intriguing is art galleries have found the videogame can expand the house, not replicate, by submitting other areas of it," Gomez mentioned. "Warner Bros. is not visiting a effort copying the Batman story in 'Arkham Asylum' and 'Arkham City' and they're making hundreds of vast amounts (from their website)."Gomez's Starlight Runner's forget about alone inside the transmedia arena, about 24 shops mining the identical realm including 42 Entertainment, Fire and Red-colored-colored Six Media, which recently done "Real Steel.""Hollywood is locating the return on investment reaches become more minimal if you don't employ your house across all platforms," he added. "Youthful people wish to be told tales in the way they will use media. So you are looking for a means to achieve them pervasively."And earn creatives more gold gold coin as a swap.
