Screen Gems has released the new trailer for Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist, opening in theaters on October 3. The comedy stars Michael Cera, Kat Dennings, Rafi Gavron and Aaron Yoo.
The film is about two people thrust together for one hilarious, sleepless night of adventure in a world of mix tapes, late-night living, and, live, loud music. Nick (Cera) frequents New York's indie rock scene nursing a broken heart and a vague ability to play the bass. Norah (Dennings) is…

This time, Brand's rock star character has fallen off…

An interesting listing at Production Weekly caught our eye - "X-Men: First Class." Could 20th Century Fox be developing a movie based on the series written by Jeff Parker and pencilled by Roger Cruz? Or are they using the title of that comic for their proposed Young X-Men spin-off?
What makes it even more interesting is that X-MenFirstClass.com redirects to FoxMovies.com.
