House and ER Vets Head to Falling Skies

Deadline is reporting that House alum Robert Sean Leonard has landed his first post-House role on TNT's alien invasion series, Falling Skies.

Check out IGN's review of the Falling Skies Season 2 finale!

In a role that seems like a fun departure from Leonard's Dr. Wilson on House, the actor will play "Roger Kadar, PhD - an obsessive but gifted scientist who runs Charleston’s power grid and lives underground with his pet rats. The children of New Charleston, intrigued by his cool science toys and unusual pets, eventually dub him 'The Rat King.'"

Leonard and Reuben.

Additionally, Falling Skies star Noah Wyle has got to be excited about this second bit of casting news, as his former ER co-star Gloria Reuben will join the series in Season 3 as well; playing "Marina Perlata, an aide to Wyle’s Tom Mason, who has been one of the leaders from the human resistance movement against an invading alien force. Attractive and a very put together woman, Marina is extremely intelligent and her political knowledge and experience could prove extremely helpful to Tom."

White House Down Pushed Forward

Sony Pictures has apparently decided to move the release date of White House Down from November 2013 to June.

According to Deadline, the Roland Emmerich-directed film will now release on June 28, 2013. It was originally slated to hit cinemas from November 1, 2013.

Exactly why the studio decided to move the date hasn't been stated, but speculation is rife that it's in order to compete with Millennium Films upcoming thriller, Olympus Has Fallen. The Antoine Fuqua-directed film doesn't have a release date yet, but as both movies have been described as "Die Hard in the White House", the assumption seems to be whichever film releases first will do better.

Channing Tatum and Jamie Foxx are set to star in Emmerich's film, while Fuqua has enlisted Gerard Butler and Aaron Eckhart to try and ensure that his movie comes out on top.
