In the hilarious animated comedy, Madagascar, Ben Stiller starred as Alex the Lion, Chris Rock voiced Marty the Zebra, and Jada Pinkett Smith took on Gloria, the loud-mouthed hippo. Thankfully, those lovable animals will return to the big screen on November 7 in Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa. iVillage had the chance to sit down with these three very funny actors to talk about the movie, their lives, and their late costar, Bernie Mac. On Having Their Children in the Film: Ben Stiller: Well, it was tough because he [son Quinlin], you know, he knew that like, there was something going on. He's only three... and Ella's six. They were sort of wary of the situation. They don't like to be be told to do anything. But, then he got in there, and he got in front of the microphone, and there was a run of like a minute where he just had fun and he was like, making sounds, and we were saying like, "Oh, be happy, happy and sad." And then he started to, you know, get a little bit intimidated by the microphone and the whole thing. And then that's when you start to feel like this horrible stage parent... But, I'm happy that they're both in the movie. It's interesting because you realize if kids aren't that comfortable with that situation, you don't want to force them to do it... I was happy that they weren't like, sort of, getting up there and going like, all Shirley Temple or something. Jada Pinkett Smith: Oh, that was so cute. Because she'd been asking. She was like, "So, how does that work? How does the animation thing work? Mommy, what happens?"... So, it was great when I got the phone call saying, "Would Willow like to play little Gloria?" And so she got to come in. Do some lines. And she got to see the process for herself, rather than me telling her. She actually could experience it in life for herself. So, that was great. On Bernie Mac: Jada Pinkett Smith: It's funny, because I saw the movie the day before he passed. [someone at Dreamworks] told me that he was ill... I didn't know he was in the hospital. I said, "Oh, man, I gotta reach out to Bernie." And then I woke up the next morning, my husband was like "Bernie's gone." That was unfortunate. But, I did have the opportunity to know him. He was a great guy. Ben Stiller: I mean, it's so sad and, what I did get the chance to do is listen to his performance a lot, especially in the last few months, as we're getting closer to the movie being finished. And I was so excited -- really -- I thought we were going to be able to spend some time together...because, I think he's so good in the film. I just thought it was great casting, and what he did with the role, it just like, exuded so much warmth. And so, it's obviously a really, really sad thing. And, my heart goes out to his family. Chris Rock: I got a ton of favorite memories of Bernie, man. Just hanging out. We filmed this movie, Head of State, a few years ago. And just every day he was the life of the party. He was the funniest guy around. He made everyone around him feel welcomed and everybody felt like they kind of knew him. And, you know, he was just a great guy to have around. On Balancing Work and Family: Ben Stiller: Being together no matter what is probably the biggest thing. You know, just, being in the same place. So, like, this summer I've been shooting in Vancouver and the family's been up there all summer, so we've been together. We're here [in New York] now together... Because even if the hours are long, you still get together at, you know, night, or in the morning, or you're just there, and there's a feeling that everybody's connected, which is really important. Jada Pinkett Smith: I just say, you know, "Mommy's out." ...You know, to just have quiet time. Even trips like this, you know? I'm here by myself. I'm only here for one day, but I'm here by myself. You know what I mean? It's like I got to sleep in the bed myself... I got the ride on the plane... So, that type of time is very valuable, you know? ... Women, we put out so much. And it's so important that we plug in somewhere, you know? A lot of times, people try to make it seem as though that's not important. Like, you've just gotta give, give, give, give. And if you don't, then that makes you a bad mom and a bad person, if you even want to take a sliver of time for yourself. And what I've learned is that I'm a much better mother, and a much better wife when I have time to be able to go and just collect myself. And my husband has learned and my kids have learned... [that they] receive the rewards of Mommy having time to herself. Chris Rock: I guess my wife handles more of the balancing than me... You're not just working to take care of them. You're working to take care of them in the event something happens to you. So, you know, being a dad, not only are you responsible for your wife and kids, if you die and they have to move four years later, you're a bad father. Like, you're really responsible for these people. So yeah, there's no balance for me. I work, work, work. When I'm off work, I spend time with my family. http://movieinsider.ivillage.com/entertain...ck-and-jad.html

Actress Jada Pinkett-Smith hit up the “Late Show with David Letterman” last night wearing a off shoulder body hugger. Jada is currently promoting her new project “The Women,” which recently premiered. In other Pinkett-Smith news, she reportedly said she “might have made a mistake” when she begged her husband Will Smith to take a one-year break after he finished promoting his latest action flick Hancock this year (08). She says, “It’s been tricky. We just moved into the new house not too long ago and he’s basically knocking walls down, he’s digging up stuff. He’s beating it to death… I told him, ‘Going back to work after Thanksgiving may be a good idea’. http://blog.singersroom.com/celebs/index.p...-the-late-show/

YaY! Well done Will! :clap2:

I just thought I had to share this... Before you say pics or it didn’t happen, there was no way possible for us to take pictures or record what happened at the end of the picket: we met with Will Smith. The Fresh Prince himself came out to speak with us and discuss our concerns and issues. The other Anons present can name themselves; Hero and I have been faced already, so you’ll see our names here. There were five us for a bit, then four. Arrived at NVLA around 7:30, signs and fliers (neighbors wanted fliers, not the parents, and so did some kids walking by; one dad with his kids was very upset that Scientology is is his neighborhood and his kid was all excited “are you Anonymous!” yes, and we weren’t wearing masks because we didn’t want to upset the kids at the school). Gave fliers to director of security and Dr Oliver. Guy in SUV slowed pointed camera and we shouted for director of security who waved the guy over and cross-examined him—he is a paparazzo. Honks and slowing traffic for us. Staff of school very nice. About 40 cars pulled in. It was first day of school/orientation. Valet parking. Mostly very expensive cars. We had told his Director of Security who very nice, professional, warm and not a Sci that we were getting ready to go and he said “If you’re able to wait, Will would like to talk with you, he’s just finishing up inside,” so we waited about five minutes, the director of security went in and we saw Will Smith walking over. “When I was 10 and listening to DJ Jazzy Jeff, this not how I envisioned I would meet Will Smith,” said Hero, as the man himself strolled up the driveway towards us. “Hi, I’m Will Smith,” he said, shaking hand with each of us (at least half of us gave our real first names). “I have a mission statement I’d like to read to you,” he explained. It was handwritten in blue ink on lined notebook paper, and I caught a glimpse of it “At NVLA…” it began, and I said “Great, then we’ll give you one of our fliers,” and he smiled and laughed, “sure, of course, of course.” “But before that,” we said, “We have some questions and concerns….” And thus SoCal Anon delivered: We stated our concerns about Scientology in terms of disconnection, RPF and Fair Game. We compared licensing Study Tech and Applied Scholastics to buying blood diamonds. He explained how study tech had helped his son learn to read and now he loves reading, that the misunderstoods, gradients and mass make sense “Looking stuff up in a dictionary is nothing new…” he said. “Nope, Pepys and Johnson,” laughed one Anon, and WS laughed back, “Exactly, we apply classic stuff, Thomas Jefferson’s learning principles.” He is big on Jefferson and Franklin and thinks the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution are two of the greatest documents ever written, and he was able to quote the Declaration to us. He is very sincere about his school. He feels that current public education is a factory, and he wants kids to be able to have true learning experiences. I was able to say, “I am sure you have been told what a great humanitarian Hubbard is but in fact he was an unindicted co-conspirator in the greatest inflitratration of the us govet. And he never got a medal of valor” Flinch from Smmith. That’s hard to hear. “Basically treason,” added Hero. He wanted to incorporate study tech because it worked for his kids. He did NOT license Applied Scholastics or Study Tech when Home Schooling and is checking to make sure that licensing is not occurring now. We pointed out that licensing ST and AP creates a funding stream for Scientology and brought up again RPF disconnection and Fair game. He assured us that the school has just taken what they like about StudyTech but to be completely transparent they are calling it what it is. It was brought up by Anon that Hubbard was scummy, so does using what he created give credence to the man? “Let me ask you something,” replied Will. “Did you take the freeway here? Where to think that came from?” We knew the answer “autobahn.” And one Anon mentioned not agreeing with the composer Wagner’s political views, but occasionally enjoying his music. Smith says that he and Jada have traveled all over five continents looking at educational techniques, and have incorporated them. The co founder of the school is Muslim, staff includes Christians and Jews. He says Tom Cruise is his friend and he has looked in Tom’s eyes and KNOWS Tom wants to help people that he means well (he compared TC to the rabbi at the Simon Weisenthal Center in terms of that degree of dedication). Will said he had worked very hard to make sure all study materials at the school were secular and had had his pastor at his church (which he named, but out of respect I wont) look at them to make sure they were secular and that no religious agenda was being pushed. He reacted very strongly and a little confused when asked if he had been audited, used an emeter or done the purif: “I am looking you straight in the eyes. NO! I am NOT a Scientologist.” He made a point to give us direct eye contact, addressing our questions and assuring us that he would follow through on seeing if they were licensing AppliedScholstics at NVLA, but reiterated that he does not want to license any teaching methods. We also told him that he might be told that Anon are paid by the German govt, by Big Pharma, even Bill Gates but we are not, that the same passion that drives to create a school for kids with organic food for lunch and very intensive ciriculum (of which we were given copies —about 150 pages of material) is the passion that drives us expose the abuses with in Scientology. Do I feel we were handled? I came away thinking “We got our signs wiht URLS for ESk and studytech.org seen by the parents, we gave WS info on RPF, disconnection, ESK, LRH that he didn’t have before. We were able to tell him about our own experiences with Fair Game. We were able to hear from him his goals and vision, where he goes to church, him say that he is not a Scientologist and (because we jokingly asked) that there is no sauna and niacin set up for the kids.” He feels the methods called Study Tech work. He doesn’t want to license AP so he can be free to “sample” and remix some of the aspects with other methods. We discussed that Hubbard’s name attached to Will Smith might lead people into Scientology, and he realized that his promoting Study Tech can be seen as gain to Scientology. He said that if Scientologists tried to come in and tell him how to run his school he’d “do this” making a an elbowing gesture, “as I’d do to anyone.” He is a very sincere and intelligent, strong willed guy. Lest you think me star struck or naive, I am not. At all. We weren’t being run. We were being addressed as people willing to discuss an issue important to all parties. Smith is very pro-American Dream (he is a living manifestation of it). He has a vision and curiosity, is open and willing to being informed. Otherwise, last week and today would not have happened. Oh and for you fashionistas: Will was wearing a light grey suit, a cream shirt which featured wide soft yellow stripes and narrower grey stripes, un buttoned just enough to show the top 1/4 inch of a very expensive wife beater, and super tapered black loafers. http://forums.enturbulation.org/7-general-...-9-8-nva-28466/

EXCLUSIVE VIDEO INTERVIEW: The Women Cast and Crew Featurette http://www.movieweb.com/news/53/31053.php

I don't think so. He'll probably start filming 'Empire' in January. What makes you say that? I thought Michael Mann was supposed to direct "Empire" but in January he'll probably be doing post-prod work on "Public Enemies".... I said "probably" :lolsign: But I don't think that we won't see a new WS movie until 18 months after 'Seven Pounds'. I'm sure he's gonna make at least one movie in 2009, and I think that it could be 'Empire' since I don't see 'The Trial Of The Chicago 7' and the other rumored movies happening. We'll have to wait though.

EXCLUSIVE: Is Will Smith The New Captain America? When Marvel announced that “Captain America” was making its way to the big-screen, fans everywhere began speculating who would be donning the famous red-white-and-blue tights. Nothing has been heard since, but during an MTV News interview regarding his role in “Miracle at St. Anna,” actor Derek Luke let slip that a very prominent - and surprising - face could be the star of Marvel Studios’ next blockbuster film. “I heard they offered Will Smith ‘Captain America,’” said Luke, adding that the intriguing casting rumor “just shows you how times have changed.” While this word through the Hollywood grapevine is nothing more than a rumor at this point, it should be noted that Marvel hasn’t shied away from changing up the race - and gender - of established characters in recent years. Upon kicking off his celebrated take on “The Ultimates” (Marvel’s re-imagining of their classic superteam The Avengers), Mark Millar changed S.H.I.E.L.D. head honcho Nick Fury from a crew-cut, cigar-chomping, middle-aged white man to, well… Sam Jackson. The decision, though aggressively debated back when the series debuted, seemed to receive some validation earlier this year when Jackson made his post-credits cameo in “Iron Man” as Fury. Smith himself is no stranger to the four-color world, having recently starred as a down-on-his-luck superhero in “Hancock.” Given the success of that film however, it seems almost a given that a sequel could be in the offing. That makes the prospect of Smith starring in yet another superhero franchise seem unlikely, especially given the subversive tone of “Hancock.” Along with providing some fresh material for the “Captain America” rumor mill, Luke also mentioned an interest in jumping into the superhero movie scene himself, and offered up a few characters he’d like to bring to the big screen. “I would love to jump into Green Lantern,” said Luke. “There are a lot of stories I’m into… [like] Black Panther.” So what do you think, Splash Page readers? Would you want to see Will Smith as Captain America? what about Derek Luke as Green Lantern or Black Panther on the big screen? Source! http://splashpage.mtv.com/2008/09/08/exclu...aptain-america/

I don't think so. He'll probably start filming 'Empire' in January.
