* Other than Melissa McCarthy, nobody from the cast of Bridesmaids
is seeing a career bounce like Wendi McLendon-Covey. The former star of Reno 911
has now joined the cast of Magic Mike, stripper pic from Steven Soderbergh. The film stars Channing Tatum, based on his early career as a male dancer. Alex Pettyfer, Joe Manganiello, Matt Bomer, Matthew McConaughey, Riley Keough, Olivia Munn, Cody Horn, and Gabriel Iglesias co-star. * We won't have to wait as long as we thought for Arnold Schwarzenegger's big screen comeback. After making lame cameos in the first film, the Governator and Bruce Willis have finalized their deals to take "substantial roles" in The Expendables 2. Simon West(Con Air
) is directing what is really Sylvester Stallone's movie. Who are we kidding? Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren, Jet Li, Terry Crews, and Mickey Rourke should be back, along with the rumored Chuck Norris and Jean-Claude Van Damme. The film explodes into theaters on August 17th 2012. [Deadline]* Speaking of the musclebound Austrian, Schwarzenegger's real return to the top of the ticket will be in The Last Stand, an action pic from South Korean director Kim Ji-Woon(I Saw the Devil
). Peter Stormare(Fargo
) has joined the cast, playing a war veteran who carries out the orders of a drug cartel leader, and takes on Schwarzenegger's small town sheriff. Look for The Last Stand to hit theaters in January 2013. [Variety]
